Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to roofs of houses, shops, terraces and sunrooms thereof, and outdoor passageways connecting buildings and shops, and specifically relates to buildings that can be opened and closed freely. Regarding retractable roofs.

(Background technology) With the spread of terraces, sunrooms, extension rooms, etc.1c, the uses of such spaces that connect indoors and outdoors have diversified, providing excellent ventilation and lighting for buildings, and even allowing rain to pass through potted plants, etc. There are an increasing number of cases where this is required.

However, the roofs of conventional buildings generally could not be opened or closed, and were fixed and closed. Externally, °, number 10CI1
Although movable skylights that can open one ventilation gap are commercially available, the opening area is extremely limited.

In this way, the reason why conventional roofs were fixed and closed was due to the need for rain protection, but one reason was that the opening/closing part was high and the operation was complicated, and in order to solve this problem, This is because when using remote or remote opening/closing means, the method and ensuring long-term smooth opening/closing with sufficient strength were issues.

(Object of the Invention) The present invention was made in view of the problems of conventional building roofs, and it is possible to obtain a relatively large opening by remote control, and to support the roof panel with sufficient strength. An object of the present invention is to provide a retractable roof for a building that allows smooth opening and closing over a long period of time. By a combination of a male-threaded screw rod and a female-threaded block, and both front and rear rolling door wheels, the hinge connection part is raised up into a ceiling shape, and the roof can be opened and closed, using the end stile as a force point and support point for opening and closing. .

That is, the present invention constructs and supports a connected roof panel formed by connecting several corner panels with hinges, with the front and rear parallel frames 1i-flK of the roof structure, the hinge axes being perpendicular to each other, and both rear rolling door wheels. The front and rear rolling door wheels are rotatably fixed to the end stile of the connecting roof panel, and a female screw block with a transparent female screw section is rotatably fixed to the front and rear rolling door wheels. is screwed onto a male threaded screw rod installed in the longitudinal direction of the face frame or the rear frame so as to be rotatable forward and backward, and by the forward and reverse rotation of the screw rod, the Using one support point for opening and closing the tip stile, the hinge connection part of the connected roof panel is raised up into a ceiling shape, making the roof freely openable and closed.1"
This article focuses on retractable roofs of buildings that are characterized by

The present invention will be described below with reference to drawings showing embodiments.
1 is a building equipped with a retractable roof according to the present invention;
is a terrace that protrudes continuously from the house 11, with vertical frames 3 on the left and right.
, 3 are buried in the ground and fixedly erected, and a roof structure frame 4 is framed around the top of the vertical frame, and a connected roof panel 5 is erected between the parallel frames 41 and 42 after the vertical frame. Then, the roof 2 is formed.

The roof structure frame 4 includes front, rear, left and right frames 4 I, 42.43.4
4 as a frame around four times, of which the curved frame 41
is constructed on the left and right vertical frames 3, 3, while the rear frame 42 is
Both are fixed to the frame of the house 2 and arranged in parallel (see Fig. 6).The front and rear parallel frames 41 and 42 both have U-shaped groove-shaped door roller rolling parts 45 and 45. It is integrally molded over the entire longitudinal length, and below the door roller rolling part,
A housing portion 46,46 for a screw rad 8, which will be described later, is provided. (The front and back and left and right relationships of the roof structure !h are relatively arbitrary depending on how the front of the building is constructed.) On the other hand, the connected roof panel 5 consists of four panels 51 and 51, as shown in FIG. ... are mutually hinged (52... in the figure)
), each panel 51 has 1 front, back, left and right stile 53.5
4. 55. are hingedly connected to each other by two lower plates in the front and back (in addition, without using the lower plate, the concave-convex fitting part may be integrally molded with aluminum over the entire length of the stile and connected continuously with a hinge). ).The connecting roof panel 5 has rolling door wheels 6 and 6' fixed to both front and rear ends of the right or left stile in a freely rolling manner.In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Two stiles, one pair on each postrib.

Such a connecting roof/tunnel 5 is constructed and supported between the front and rear parallel frames 41.4.2 of the roof structure described above, but here, the hinge shafts of the hinge connecting portions 52... are aligned with the Imp'F row frames 41.4.2. 4
2 lc are arranged perpendicularly to each other, and the rolling door wheels a, a, e;
It is fitted and supported in a U-shaped groove-shaped door roller rolling portion 45.45 of 1.42 in a freely rolling manner.

Then, the connected roof panel 5 constructed and supported in this way
In this embodiment, the right stile 56' at the rightmost end becomes the tip stile at the opening/closing tip, and front and rear rolling door wheels 6:6' are fixed to the front and rear ends of the tip stile 56' in a freely rolling manner. At the same time, the female screw block 7.7 is rotatably fixed.

As shown in FIG. 5, the female screw block 7 has left and right cylindrical portions 71 and 71 that protrude through each other to form a substantially T-shape from the front (the material of this portion is nylon 6). ), a sintered metal plate 73 having a female threaded portion 72 therethrough is fitted between the left and right cylindrical portions. And the tip stile 56'
The L-shaped bracket 58 is rotatably fixed via a through hole in an L-shaped bracket 58 fixed thereto.

On the other hand, the female threaded block 7 is screwed onto the male threaded screw rod 8.

In this embodiment, the male threaded screw rod 8 is formed by twisting a stainless steel plate (SO5304) to form a male threaded screw, and is pivotally supported by left and right bearings 9 and 10, and is attached to the front frame 41 and the rear frame. 42 screw rod storage parts 46, 46 are installed in the longitudinal direction so as to be freely rotatable in forward and reverse directions.

Here, to explain the rigid shaft support structure, first, the right bearing part 10
A right shaft 82 made of stainless steel bar (5US304) is fitted to the right end of a male threaded screw rod 8 and fixed with a set screw 83, and the right shaft 82 passes through a brass flat bearing 84 and is attached to the shaft. A thrust ball bearing 85 is formed by sandwiching a stainless steel bearing 22 between a retainer formed by supporting the flat bearing and a part of the right shaft 82 protruding like a hat brim.

On the other hand, the left bearing part 9 is generally the same, but differs in that it adopts a structure that eliminates the deflection of the male threaded scree rod. The collar 86 is tightened to the thrust ball bearing 85 side by a double napht 87.

In the retractable roof 2 of this embodiment, the connecting roof panel 5 is opened and closed by the combination of the male threaded screw rod 8 and the curved female threaded block 70. As a result, the female screw block 7 travels straight, but since the block 7 is rotatably fixed to the end stile 56' of the connecting roof panel 5, the end stile guides and moves as it travels. One,
Every other hinge connecting portion 52 rises in a roof-like manner, and the roof opens sequentially from the end stile 56' side (see FIGS. 1 and 2). At this time, the tip stile becomes the point of force for opening and closing through the female screw block, but at the same time, the rolling door wheel 6:6'
It is also a supporting point through. In addition, the hinge connection part 52...
1. There are 1. i, Place the other sliding door @6.6 in the intermediate stile along with the front and back relationship of the hinge connection i'
This is because ZL, the near-shaped groove-shaped sliding part 45.45 K is fitted into the support L5. Further, numeral 47 in the figure is a panel storage section.

I would like to add some additional points that are not shown.

The retractable roof of the present invention can be used on terraces, balconies, sunrooms, extension rooms, horticultural greenhouses, etc., as well as on the roofs of general houses and stores, and can be used on outdoor passageways connecting buildings and stores. Also.

Especially for factories where ventilation is important. Good results can be obtained even when used in the laboratory.

Further, although the retractable roof of the present invention is formed by connecting panels at several corners with hinges, it is of course optional in the design to connect one additional panel that does not open and close.

On the other hand, regarding female thread blocks and rolling door wheels (particularly those provided at the end stile), the rolling door wheel must be provided at both the front and rear ends of the end stile, but the female thread block can be installed on only one side as long as it can be opened and closed smoothly. Enough. This is determined by the weight of the connected roof panels and other conditions. Of course, if the female threaded block is on only one side, the male threaded screw rod may also be on only one side. On the other hand, when a female screw block, a male screw screw, and a throat are provided on both the front and rear sides, the IIR rear screw.

--It is necessary to interlock the rotation of the rad with gears, belts, etc.

Furthermore, since both the female screw block and the rolling door wheel are fixed to the end stile, they can also be manufactured integrally. For example, 1i! The rolling door wheel is pivotally fixed to the screw block so that it can roll freely, and the female screw block of the door wheel 1 is rotatably fixed to the end stile.

Incidentally, in the illustrated example, the female threaded portion provided through the female threaded block is made of a sintered alloy that is separate from the other parts of the block, but they may be made of the same material and one piece as long as the required hardness is obtained.

In addition, if a sintered metal plate with a transparent female thread is fitted into a female thread block with a loose fit with a clearance, even if there is some bending or unevenness in the door roller rolling part or screw rod, it will not work. , and can run in accordance with this, and can prevent unexpected loads from being applied to the screw rod.

This point is the same when fixing the rolling door to the tip stile.
The screw rod will rotate more smoothly if it is fixed so that it can move slightly in directions other than the rolling direction.

As mentioned above, in the case where the female screw block and the rolling door wheel are manufactured integrally, for example, the female screw block is provided with an upper part provided with the rolling door wheel and a female screw portion transparent therethrough. Divided into the lower part,
It is possible to provide a recessed portion or a convex portion on both of them as appropriate so that they can fit loosely and move freely.

Next, the screw rod is formed by twisting a stainless steel plate in the example shown in Figure 1, but it may also be formed by twisting an extruded aluminum alloy bar material integrally provided with ribs in the longitudinal direction, or of course, it may be threaded by cutting. Good too. Depending on the weight of the connected roof panels, the number of rotations of the drive motor during automation, etc., long lengths of regular bolts can be used as appropriate.

By the way, the retractable roof of the present invention is easy to automate;
In that case, the right or left shaft (82, 81) in the illustrated example
lζ, the drive motor may be connected via a flex shaft.

On the other hand, in the case of manual opening/closing, a string, chain, etc. can be hooked to a pulley or sprocket connected directly or indirectly to a male threaded screw rod, and turned 7, allowing the manual opening/closing to be performed remotely near the expanded root. Or changing the direction of rotation with a combination of cap gears, or installing a hand turn...it's up to you.

Although the embodiments have been constructed as described above, the present invention can be implemented with various changes in the specific materials, dimensions, shapes, structures, etc., as long as it does not go against the gist of the invention. Needless to say, it is not limited to.

(Effects of the Invention) Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects.

(1) That is, in the retractable roof of the present invention, a connected roof panel formed by connecting several corner panels with hinges is erected and supported between the front and rear parallel frames of the roof structure with the hinge axes orthogonal to each other, and the hinge connection portion is mounted on the ceiling. Because it can be opened and closed freely, ■
A large number of panels can be connected as needed, and the open panel storage area only needs to be narrow in width, allowing the roof to be opened much wider than conventional skylights. It is easy to obtain a large opening. As a result, roof ventilation
Of course, it is possible to freely block light (when using a light-shielding panel) and allow rain to pass through, and these effects can be dramatically increased.

(2) In addition, the retractable roof of the present invention has a female screw block fixed to the connecting roof panel screwed onto a male screw rod, and the roof can be opened and closed by rotating the screw rod forward and backward, so that the roof can be directly touched. Since this can be opened and closed remotely or remotely without having to worry, ■ you can open and close alpine roofs at hand, ■ the same goes for long roofs 2
■It is convenient in various respects, such as being easy to automate, and due to its ease of automation and large open area, it can also be used as an emergency exhaust system for fire smoke, volatile gas from drugs, etc. A retractable roof can be provided.

(3) Next, in the retractable roof of the present invention, a female threaded block is installed in the longitudinal direction of the front frame or the rear frame so that it can freely rotate in the forward and reverse directions, and is fitted with a male threaded screw with zero throat, so that the running block is stable. This allows the vehicle to travel straight ahead, prevent the rolling door vehicle from flashing, and allows the roof to be opened and closed smoothly.

(4) On the other hand, in the retractable roof of the present invention, the connected roof panels are supported between the front and rear parallel frames of the roof structure via both the front and rear rolling door wheels, so that excessive loads are not applied to the externally threaded screw ronds. The roof can be opened and closed smoothly for a long period of time.

(5) Then, the front and rear rolling door wheels and the female screw block with the female screw portion transparent are fixed to the end stile of the connected roof panel so as to be able to roll and rotate, and serve as a force point and support for opening and closing the end stile. As a result, since the end stile of the connected roof panel is used as the point of force to open and close, ■the opening and closing force is smaller than when using the first stile in the middle as the point of force, and ■there is no need for a special link mechanism. Spontaneously fully open or fully open, and
Since the tip stile combines the opening/closing force point and the support point, ■ smooth running guidance is possible with no sagging 0
