Definitions

  • roof insulating systems which are vapour-repellant and which have a vapour barrier below the heat insulation, to reduce vapour pressure and wetting of the heat insulation.
  • Such insulations can take the form, for instance, of perforate glass fleece strips which have a coarse gravel underlay and which are connected to the roof surface by spot adhesion.
  • roof insulating boards which are made Wholly or mainly of plastic and which comprise: a hard polyvinyl chloride underlay board having wart-like projections to define air channels; a foamed polystyrene heat-insulating layer; and a polyvinyl chloride foil as moisture-impervious layer.
  • a disadvantage of these known roof insulating systems is that the procedure for applying them to their support surface-dc, the concrete surface-4s tedious and comprises a number of working steps.
  • the support surface must first be given an initial insulation by being coated with bitumen, and the bitumen thus applied must dry completely before the insulation boards can be stuck on by means of hot-flowable bitumen compound.
  • the invention starts from composite roof insulating boards which comprise an underlay board, heat insulating layer and moisture seal and which have projections or the like on the underside to define air channels. It is an object of the invention to simplify the work of laying such insulating boards and to make laying independent of the weather.
  • the projections or the like on the board underside are formed with narrow horizontal grooves, and thin elongated connectors are engaged in the grooves and are formed with bores with which are associated downwardly extending annular reinforcements, for securing to the roof surface.
  • the grooves extend around the periphery of the projections.
  • the connectors can be individual elements.
  • a number of connectors can be interconnected to form a multiple-element connector.
  • rods or circular bars can be provided in spaced adjacent relationship to one another or bars which are in cross-section substantially trapezoidal and which widen downwards can be provided in spaced adjacent relationship to one another.
  • the connectors according to the invention can be engaged in the gap which is left between the bars and which can, if required, be filled up with a variety of substances, the connectors being clamped between the bars without any need of a special groove.
  • the boards are interconnected by the connectors, all or some of which are connected to the concrete support surface, for instance, by nailing or plugging, so as to secure the roof insulating boards.
  • This method of laying the roof insulating boards is very rapid and is not affected by weather.
  • FIGURE 1 is a sectional view of one embodiment of the inventive roof insulation structure, this view illustrating the realtionship of this structure with a concrete floor;
  • FIGURE 2 is a top plan view of the arrangement illustrated in FIGURE 1, this view partially broken away to more clearly indicate the engagement of the connector with the projections;
  • FIGURE 3 is an enlarged top plan view of one type of connector which may be used in the inventive roof insulation structure
  • FIGURE 4 is a side elevation view of the connector shown in FIGURE 3;
  • FIGURE 5 is a sectional view of a second embodiment of the inventive structure.
  • FIGURE 6 is a sectional view of a third embodiment of the inventive roof insulation structure.
  • the roof insulating board 2 comprises an underlay board 3, a heat insulating layer 4, and a moisture seal 5. The edges of the layer 4 project beyond the rest on the board and therefore overlap when the boards are fitted together.
  • the underlay board 3 is provided with Wart-like projections 6 which define air channels 7. The air channels 7 separate most of the exposed area of the underlay board 3 from the roof 1 and thereby insure that the roof insulating board 2 is not damaged by the condition of the roof 1 due to the effects of inclement weather.
  • All or some of the projections 6 are formed with narrow horizontal grooves 8 spaced from said underlay board which grooves extend either just in one direction, for instance, parallel with the board lengthwise edge, or peripherally, as denoted by the reference 8 in FIG. 2.
  • the connectors 9 are formed intermediate their ends with bores 10 surrounded by downwardly extending annular reinforcements 11 which, when the connector 9 is engaged in locking relationship in the grooves 8, rest on the roof surface or extend almost thereto.
  • the connectors 9 can take the form of two elements 9' symmetrically interconnected by a web 19, in which event the fixing apertures 10 in the two elements 9' are oifset from one another so that at least one of them stays exposed after the connector 9 has been fitted (see FIG. 2).
  • one or more connectors which have already been engaged in the grooves in the boards but which still project therefrom have their projecting parts secured to the roof, by nails or fastener means 20, as shown in FIGURE 1 whereafter the board is slid completely over the connectors and is therefore located at one end. Further connectors are then pushed half-way in at the opposite side, as can be seen in FIG. 2, and are similarly secured to the roof surface. After the connectors 9 are engaged in the grooves, they extend into the air channel 7 so that a secure connection of the insulating boards 2 may be made to one another and to the roof 1. Another board is then pushed onto the projecting parts of the connectors 9, and the operations are repeated until all the boards have been laid. If required, connectors can be provided at the ends which are bent down; alternatively, the edge boards can be secured along their outer edge during the conventional zinc sheet work by means of cover strips or the like.
  • the air channels are defined not by wart-like projections 6 but by round bars 12 which are laid in spaced relationship adjacent one another; connectors 9" are engaged between the bars 12 and the annular thickened part 11 of the connector 9" is adapted to the height of the bars 12.
  • bars 13 are provided, the width of which increases downwards and which are in cross-section trapezoidal and between which, of course, connectors 9" can be engaged.
  • the heat insulating layer can take the form of cork boarding or other heat-insulating substances, such as peat or mineral fibres or the like
  • the underlay boards can take the form of cardboards or foils or waterproof papers or wood fibre boards or the like
  • the moisture seal can take the form of roofing felt, glass fleece strips or other tarry or bituminous compounds.
  • the connectors 9 are made of glass fibre reinforced polyester resin.
  • hard polyvinyl chloride or wood or galvanised metal can be used.
  • a roof insulation structure for attachment to roofs comprising the combination of a plurality of composite roof insulating boards positioned adjacent one another, each of said boards including an underlay board, a heat insulating layer on said underlay board and moisture sealing means on the opposite side of said heat insulating layer from said underlay board, and means interconnecting said plurality of insulating boards to one another and to said roof, said interconnecting means comprising a plurality of projections connected to and extending downwardly from each of said underlay boards and defining air channels between said insulated boards and said roof, said air channels separating most of the exposed area of said underlay boards from said roof and thereby insure that said insulating boards are not damaged by the condition of said roof due to the effects of inclement weather, a plurality of connector means, each of said connector means comprising an elongated member having a bore located intermediate the ends thereof and defined by a downwardly extending annular spacer reinforcement, said reinforcement engaging at the downward end thereof said roof structure, and means for connecting said connector means to said roof passing through
  • a roof insulation structure as set forth in claim 1 further comprising grooves in said projections, said connector means engaging said projections by fitting in said grooves.
