Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention provides sports facilities such as swimming pools and tennis, recreational facilities such as amusement parks, zoos, and parks, residences,
The purpose of this project is to provide canopy structures for buildings and other living facilities, and to artificially improve the natural environment of these canopy structures.

In the past, this type of structure mainly had a fixed canopy, and was designed to simply shield wind, rain, cold and warm air, and to actively protect the natural environment. It was said that it was powerless to introduce natural environment, selectively or modified the natural environment.

Particularly due to complete closure during rainy or stormy weather, occlusion of only one side of the canopy during cold wind or hot weather, or opening and closing of the canopy over time in the direction of direct sunlight. This made it difficult to respond quickly to the natural environment.

The opening/closing structure of the canopy-like structure according to the present invention has been specially devised in view of the inconveniences in the conventional structure, and is designed to prevent the movement of each individual canopy structure base material in the structure. Furthermore, the base material can be moved easily and reliably by freely attaching to cables such as chains and wires installed in advance on the base material support of the structure. Moreover, it is possible to adapt to both automation and manualization of such opening/closing movement.

The opening/closing structure according to the present invention has a canopy structure that is divided into a plurality of leaves by a line segment passing through the center line of the rotation axis, in order to achieve various effects on such characteristics. bearing the material at the center line,
A hemispherical, conical, truncated conical shape, etc., in which the base material of the next rank is laminated one after another within the base material of the previous rank, and can be freely fed and fed out, and the planar cross section when the base material is developed is circular. In a structure exhibiting a deformed shape, the lower end of the canopy base material constituting the structure is supported on a guide part such as a guide rail, and an endless and forcibly driven chain or A driving cable such as a wire is removably engaged with the lower part of the base material, and the base material is placed at a point where it can be rotated individually or continuously with the shaft bearing part as a base point, and the following specific implementation is performed. Examples and considerable design changes accompanying these examples are planned.

A typical example of a typical opening/closing structure according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings. 1 is a canopy base material, which is usually made of transparent or translucent polycarbonate resin for a frame such as a lightweight steel frame. It is made up of a plate, a Teflon resin plate, or a sheet material.

These canopy base materials 1 are shaped like a hemisphere, a cone, a frustum, or a line segment passing through the center line of the rotation axis when the center of these various deformed structures is the rotation axis. The upper end thereof is provided with a bearing portion 1a that is engaged with the rotating shaft 2, and the lower end thereof is provided with a roll 4 that slides and rolls on the surface of the rail 3 or A sliding member 5 and the like that sit on the roll 3 are provided.

The base materials 1 having such a configuration are sequentially assembled on the circumferential side of the rotating shaft 2, and the individual base materials 1 are as follows:
It is designed so that its dimensions and curvature are sequentially different, and for each base material 1, the next base material 1' is used, and for this base material 1', the next base material 1'' is
are installed in such a way that they can be laminated in a manner that allows them to be fed in and out freely, and when the base materials 1, 1', 1'', etc. to be assembled are unfolded, the plane cross section is approximately (as they are stacked on each other, the wall thickness of the base materials) A canopy-like structure having a circular shape (having a step) is provided in the shape of a hemisphere, a cone, a truncated cone, or a variation thereof.

In addition, a part of the base material 1 is of a fixed type, and this fixed base material 1 is used as a supporting structure when other base materials 1', 1''... It was planned to be a reinforced structure that would prevent this.

It was also separately planned to configure the rail 3, which is the supporting part of the base material 1, to be high-height, and to provide a space within this waist 6 for installing a chain 7 or a wire 8, which is the driving means for the base material 1. It is something.

In such a support structure for the base material 1, a chain 7 or a wire 8 is disposed endlessly around the rail 3, and the chain 7 and wire 8 are provided with a motor or other driving means 9. In the case of the chain 7, the drive gear 10 and the tension gear 11 are forcibly driven, and in the case of the wire 8, the winding drive wheel 12 and the tension roll 13 are
were prepared for each.

A chain 7 which is arranged in such a circular manner and driven;
Various methods are planned for the engagement of the wire 8 and the base material 1, and there are engagement structures that can readily respond to various modes such as manual engagement and disengagement, fully automatic engagement and disengagement, total engagement and partial engagement, etc. was planned.

To explain a typical engagement example, the chain 7, which is slidably inserted through the guide 14 of the base material 1, is engaged with the base material 1 with a rack-like stopper 15 at the guide 14. In this case, the loading and unloading is based on the back and forth movement of the stopper 15, which is controlled by the manual lever 1.
6, and automatic control such as a solenoid.

Next, in regulating the movement of the base material 1 by the wire 8, the wire 8 is driven to be inserted through the guide hole 18 in the base material 1, and a stopper 19 is fixed to the wire 8. The wire 8 is engaged by the stopper 19 and released by removing the wire 8 from the hole 18.

This stopper 19 has a so-called bullet expanding or compressing structure that acts only in one direction, and is attached to the wire 8 in different directions alternately in accordance with left and right rotations. This is what I did.

Furthermore, in addition to these engagement structures, an engagement flange 20 for the next base material 1 is provided on the side edge of the base material 1, and the engagement and release of this engagement flange 20 allows the base material 1 to be continuous or unified. A separate plan was made to force the movement of departments.

The opening/closing structure of the canopy-like structure according to the present invention has the characteristic structure mentioned above, and since the constituent base material 1 can be moved in whole or in part, it can be easily opened and closed in rainy weather. Alternatively, it can be used in a wide variety of situations, such as when the lid is closed in cold weather, when it is fully opened and closed when it is warm, and when the lid is partially opened and closed, with the opening surface adjusted to suit the direction of the sun's direct sunlight. Yes, and in addition, the movement of the base material 1 in this immediate response is chained,
A particularly simple and easy-to-handle movement structure such as a wire is used to move the base material 1 smoothly and reliably.
