As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the eaves gutter 101 is formed by bulging the front wall in order to secure a sense of unity with the eaves and a voluminous appearance and to prevent fallen leaves, dust and the like from entering. The upper portion of the front wall is inclined rearward to form an inclined portion 104, and a longitudinal concave groove 102 which is opened upward and forward is formed in the lower portion of the front wall portion. A drain hole 103 penetrating into the eaves gutter 101 at regular intervals is formed, and rainwater accumulated in the groove 102 of the eaves gutter 101 is drained from the drainage hole 103 of the eaves gutter 101 through the eaves gutter 10.
1 Thus, the rainwater flowing on the front wall of the eaves gutter 101 does not fall to the ground, and
01 was able to collect water.

[0003]

However, in the above conventional example, the rainwater flows downward from above the inclined portion 104 in the front wall portion, so that the speed of the rainwater increases below the inclined portion 104, Since the amount of rainwater also increases, there are not a few rainwater flowing over the inclined portion 104 that climbs over the concave groove 102 and directly falls on the ground, or runs down the bottom of the eaves gutter 101 and goes to the back side. For this reason, there has been an inconvenience that a hole is dug in the ground by rainwater that has fallen directly on the ground. The present invention has been made in view of this point,
It is an object of the present invention to provide an eaves gutter and an eaves gutter device capable of increasing the ratio of rainwater collected in a groove and reducing the ratio of rainwater falling over the groove and directly falling on the ground. Things.

[0004]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, an eaves gutter is formed by inclining an upper portion of a front wall portion of a eaves gutter body rearward to form an inclined portion, and a lower portion of the front wall portion is provided with an upper front portion. An open longitudinal concave groove is formed, and a hairline along the longitudinal direction of the eaves gutter main body is formed on the surface of the inclined portion.

[0005] Here, the hair line refers to a fine streak like a hair, but in this case, includes a concave or convex streak larger than that.

The eaves gutter according to claim 2 of the present invention is characterized by claim 1
The described eaves gutter is characterized in that the hair line is formed by arranging a plurality of concave stripes side by side.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided an eaves gutter.
Alternatively, in the eaves gutter according to claim 2, the hair lines are continuous in the longitudinal direction.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided an eaves gutter device which is formed by fitting an eaves gutter joint from the outside of the eaves gutter according to the first aspect and connecting the eaves gutter with a front wall of the eaves gutter. The water collecting gap is formed between the concave groove of the portion and the inner surface of the eaves gutter joint.

[0009]

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an eaves gutter and an eaves gutter apparatus according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the eaves gutter according to the embodiment. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the eaves gutter according to the embodiment. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the eaves gutter main body 1 is formed by expanding the front wall portion 3 in order to ensure a sense of unity with the eaves and a voluminous appearance and to prevent fallen leaves, dust and the like from entering. The upper part of the front wall 3 is inclined rearward to form an inclined part 5, and a longitudinal concave groove 4 opening upward and forward is formed in the lower part of the front wall 3, and the eaves gutter main body 1 is formed. A plurality of continuous hair lines 6 along the longitudinal direction are formed side by side on the surface of the inclined portion 5.

The hair line 6 is a ridge having a height of about 1 mm. The material of the hair line 6 may be metal, plastic, or the like, and may be the same material as the eaves gutter body 1 or a different material.

Although the hair line 6 is formed continuously on the surface of the inclined portion 5 along the longitudinal direction of the eaves gutter main body 1 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it is formed intermittently. Is also good. However, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the water collecting effect is greater when formed continuously. That is, it is possible to reduce the ratio of rainwater directly falling on the ground. Note that the hair line 6 may be a concave stripe.

An inner joint 2b is provided inside the eave gutter joint 2 separately from the eave gutter joint 2. The eave gutter joint 2 is fitted from the outer side of the eave gutter 2 and the eave gutter joint 2 and the inner joint 2b. Insert the eaves gutter between and to ensure the connection of the eaves gutter. Then, a water collecting gap is formed between the concave groove 4 of the front wall portion 3 of the eave gutter and the inner surface of the eave gutter joint 2. The eave gutter joint 2 may be a gutter part such as a stop.

The method of using the eaves gutter and the eaves gutter apparatus will be described below. On the front wall 3 of the eaves gutter main body 1, rainwater flows downward from the top of the slope 5. The speed of the rainwater increases and the amount of the rainwater increases from the top to the bottom of the inclined portion 5. Then, it collides with the hairline 6 and gets over it to reduce its speed. Since the hair line 6 is formed in a plurality of rows, each time the hair line 6 collides with and gets over the hair line 6, the speed of the rainwater decreases more and more. Then, water is collected in the concave groove 4.

As described above, by causing the rainwater to collide with the hair line 6 and reduce the speed thereof, the ratio of the rainwater collected in the groove 4 is increased, and the water is not collected in the groove 4. Thus, the ratio of rainwater that falls directly on the ground after climbing over the concave groove 4 can be reduced, and inconveniences such as digging a hole in the ground by the water directly falling on the ground can be reduced.

The rainwater collected in the groove 4 flows through the groove 4 and is formed between the groove 4 of the front wall 3 of the eave gutter and the inner surface of the eave gutter joint 2. Water is collected in the eaves gutter from the water gap. By forming the water collecting gap in this way, the rainwater collected in the concave groove 4 can be smoothly collected in the eaves gutter.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an eaves gutter according to another embodiment of the present invention. This eaves gutter device is similar to the eaves gutter device shown in FIG.
Is different. Other configurations are the same as those of the eaves gutter shown in FIG. In this case, the rainwater that has fallen on the inclined portion 5 of the front wall portion 3 of the eaves gutter main body 1 climbs over the groove 6a to reduce its speed, and a part of the rainwater is collected in the groove 6a. Since the concave stripes 6a are formed over a plurality of rows,
Each time the rainwater passes over the plurality of ridges 6a, the speed of the rainwater is gradually reduced, and a part of the stormwater is collected in each of the ridges 6a.

In this case, since a gap is also formed between the groove 6a of the front wall portion 3 of the eave gutter and the inner surface of the eave gutter joint 2, the rainwater collected in the groove 6a is not formed by the groove. 6a, and water is collected from the gap into the eaves gutter.

The rainwater collected in the groove 4 flows through the groove 4 and the groove 4 of the front wall 3 of the eave gutter and the eave gutter joint 2.
Water is collected inside the eaves gutter from the water collection gap formed between the inside of the eaves.

In this case, water is collected in the eaves gutter also from the concave streak 6a, so that the eaves gutter shown in FIG.
The rate of rainwater falling directly on the ground can be reduced.

[0020]

The eaves gutter according to the first aspect of the present invention increases the rate of rainwater collected in the groove by causing rainwater to cross the hairline and reduce the speed thereof. It is possible to reduce the ratio of rainwater that falls directly on the ground after getting over the water without being collected in the ground, and it is possible to reduce inconvenience such as digging a hole in the ground due to the rainwater falling directly on the ground.

The eaves gutter according to the second aspect of the present invention is the first aspect.
In addition to the effect of the eaves gutter described above, rainwater can also be collected into the concave stripes, so that the ratio of rainwater falling directly to the ground can be further reduced.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, there is provided an eaves gutter.
Alternatively, in addition to the effect of the eaves gutter according to the second aspect, since the hairline is continuous, the ratio of rainwater directly falling on the ground can be further reduced.

In the eaves gutter according to the fourth aspect of the present invention, rainwater collected in the concave groove can be smoothly collected in the eaves gutter.
