Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an improvement of a connecting device for a capstone installed between connecting ends of a capstone attached to the top of a parapet on the roof of a building.

In general, Kasagi is often used to waterproof the concrete or mortar at the top of the parapet, protect it from frost damage, and improve the appearance.

This cap is located on the roof of the building, where it is easily exposed to thermal expansion due to solar heat, so this thermal expansion tends to cause the cap to rise above the top surface of the parapet and cause bending deformation. Because of this problem, the Kasagi is sometimes installed with both ends of the Kasagi slightly spaced apart to absorb the above thermal expansion, and in order to eliminate the above problem, the Kasagi is attached to the top of the parapet via a Kasagi support. There is.

Connectors for the caps are generally installed in the gaps formed at both ends of the caps attached in this way for the purpose of waterproofing and to prevent the caps from falling off.

Conventionally, this connector for a capstone has been often used, which is fitted over the opposing ends of the capstone and has a number of recessed grooves for guiding rainwater etc. on the surface that comes into contact with the inner surface of the capstone.

However, since the above-mentioned conventional coupling device for a capacitor is simply fitted into the opposite end of the capacitor,
The fixing strength was low, and as a result, it was not only dangerous because it was easy to fall off along with the cap due to wind and rain, but also rainwater overflowed from the grooves and flowed into the inside of the cap, causing rain leaks.

This idea was devised in view of the current situation, and
The purpose is to provide a connecting tool for a Kasagi that can be attached to a gap for absorbing thermal expansion formed at opposite ends of a Kasagi, and that can improve the connection strength of the Kasagi as well as the waterproof effect. This is what I am trying to do.

This invention will be described in detail below based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the capacitor connector 17 according to this embodiment
, two Kasagi receivers 5, 5 each having a substantially U-shaped cross section, and a joint member 14 that connects these two Kasagi receivers.
I warn you from this.

A cap 4 is fixed to the top end of a parapet 3 formed on the rooftop 2 of the building 1 along its longitudinal direction via the two cap supports 5.

This Kasagi receiver 5 is formed into a substantially U-shaped cross section, and is fitted and fixed to the parapet 3 via screws 6.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a fixing plate 8 is fitted with screws 9 in a groove 7 formed at the lower end of one side wall 5a of the Kasagi receiver 5.
is fixed to form an engagement groove 10.

The Kasagi receivers 5 configured in this way are fixed to the parapet 3 at predetermined intervals, and the Kasagi 4 are fitted and fixed onto the Kasagi receivers 5.

That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the cap 4 is protruded from the inner wall at the lower end of one side wall 4a, and is inserted into the engagement groove 10 of the cap holder 5 to attach the cap 4 to the cap holder 5. An engaging piece 12 for fixing, and a hook 13 protruding from the inner surface of the other side wall 4b facing the side wall 4a and locking the lower end of the other side wall 5b facing the one side wall 5a of the Kasagi receiver 5. It is configured.

As shown in FIG. 2, a joint member 14 is fitted between the opposing ends 4c, 4c of the cap 4 constructed as described above when it is attached.

As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, this joint member 14 is formed so that its surface shape matches the shape of the back surface of the opposing ends 4c and 4c of the cap 4, and is designed to guide rainwater, etc. to the surface. It is composed of a groove 15 formed on the surface of the main body, and a tsuba 16 having a generally hat-shaped front face extending in the direction of the opposing ends 4c, 4c of the cap 4 on the back surface of the main body.
When the joint member 14 is inserted, it is installed in the fixing groove 11 formed in the upper surface portion 5c of the Kasagi receiver 5 to firmly fix the joint member 14 to the Kasagi receiver 5.

Next, the method of fixing the cap 4 to the parapet 3 using the joint member 14 according to the above embodiment will be explained. First, the waterproof sheet S is pasted up to the outer wall side edge of the top of the parapet 3, and the end is sealed. After sealing with the material, the Kasagi receivers 5 are fixed to the top end of the parapet 3 via screws 6 at predetermined intervals.

At this time, insert the flange 16 of the joint member 14 into the groove 11 provided in the top plate of the Kasagi receiver 5, and
and the joint member 14 are connected and fixed.

After this, the Kasagi 4 is placed on the Kasagi receiver.

At this time, the hook 13 of the Kasagi 4 is locked to the lower end of the other side wall 5b of the Kasagi receiver 5, and the locking piece 12 of the Kasagi 4 is press-fitted into the engagement groove 10, so that the Kasagi 4 is firmly attached to the Kasagi receiver 5. It is locked and fixed.

Since this invention is constructed as described above, the joint member can be firmly fixed in the thermal expansion absorption gap that is inevitably formed at the opposite end of the Kasagi due to its function. Therefore, the waterproof effect from rainwater etc. can be improved without impairing the thermal expansion effect, and the joint member and the cap can be firmly fixed to the Kasagi bracket, and the Kasagi can be removed using the Kasagi bracket. Since the fixing plate cannot be fixed without being removed, its fixing strength is high and there is no risk of it falling off, which is effective in preventing danger.
