Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a stone wall covering.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as a cover of this type, as shown in FIG. 8, for example, a U-shaped integrated metal plate member 101 is butt-joined to each other at both ends thereof to form a lower side. It is known that a fixture 103 having an arm member facing toward is attached to a stone wall.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) A conventional cover is usually attached with a slight inclination on its upper surface, but still, dirty rainwater and / or thawed water blown from the side by wind, especially It had a drawback that it penetrated from the butt joint 102 and left an ugly stain mark 104 on the underlying stone wall.

The present invention aims to solve the above problems.

(Means for Solving Problems) The feature of the present invention for solving the problems of the prior art is that bending or extrusion is performed so as to cover the upper surface and the side surface of the stone wall. In a cover for a stone wall composed of a plate material having a modified cross section and a fixture for a bent plate material that can be mounted at intervals on a stone wall for mounting the plate material, the plate material of the modified cross section is A separate first member 18 mounted substantially horizontally on the top of the stone wall and a second member 20 mounted substantially vertically on the side of the stone wall, said members 18, 20 being mutually Fitting edges 22,24
And the fixture 8 is a pair of arms 1 extending horizontally and vertically along the inner surfaces of the first and second members 18 and 20.
0,12, the ends of each of the arms 10,12 are configured to fit into the edging portions 14,16 provided at the outer ends of the first and second members 18,20, respectively. There is a point.

(Operation) Since the deformed plate material according to the present invention is composed of two members, they can be attached while being displaced from each other. That is, the position of the joint of the first member and the joint of the butt of the second member can be shifted in the longitudinal direction of the stone wall. Therefore, the butt seam is not continuous over the entire width of the plate in the range of the plate that is horizontal or slightly inclined, and therefore the water that has infiltrated this seam part is substantially vertical. It is prevented from flowing out to the side of the stone wall where the member of. On the other hand, the amount of water entering the joint of the vertical members is so small that it does not matter because water can flow directly vertically.

(Embodiment) A preferred embodiment of the present invention and some modifications will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, a bent fixture 8 is mounted on a stone wall 2 with a bolt 4 and a dowel 6 at intervals. From this fixture, the brace 10 extends substantially horizontally,
On the "visible side" of Ishigaki 2, the second arm 12 extends substantially vertically. The ends of both arms 10 and 12 have edging portions 14 and 16 provided at the outer ends of the two members 18 and 20 of the deformed plate material.
One of the members is fitted and connected to each other at the upper end of the fixture 8 by the edging portions 22 and 24 provided at the opposite ends thereof. Where this edging 22,24
Forms an upwardly projecting collar 28 that is higher than the substantially horizontal portion 26 of the member 18, which is flush with the vertically extending portion 30 of the member 20. In addition, the fixture 8 has a protrusion
32, which fits into the edging 22 inside the member 18,
The edging portion 22 is fitted into the corresponding notch 36 provided in the fixture 8 by the outer bent portion 34 again.

As can be seen from this figure, the member 18 extends substantially horizontally.
Near the edge 14 thereof, i.e. on the side of the stone wall 2 opposite the side on which the member 20 is located, the bending is downwards, with the corresponding arm 10 of the fixture 8 also bending substantially along this. Then, the distance between the two becomes narrower as it goes downward in the range of the corresponding bent portion 38, so that the upper end portion of the member 18 is first hooked to the attached fixture 8 and the edging portion thereof is formed. You can easily fix it by pressing 14 down.

At the end of the second arm 12 of the fixture 8, a leaf spring made of special steel is attached.
There is a 40, as shown in FIG. 2, which opens downward to form a substantially W shape, and the central part of the W extends in the length direction of the stone wall 2 and is clamped into the continuous part of the arm. It is like this.

Details of the three types of insertion are shown in FIGS. 3 to 5. These are all clamp connections, and are formed by bending one of the branched arms at the branched bent portion 42 of the arm 12. Here, in the case of FIG. 2, FIG. 3, and FIG. 5, the bent portion 42 branches at the outer end thereof, but
In the figure, it branches at the root. The various shapes of this foldable forked armlet are shown at 44,46,48. Leaf spring 40
In order to further secure the side against movement to the side, in FIGS. 3 and 4, the projections 50, 5 are provided on one or both ends of the branched arms.
2, 54 are provided, and in the case of FIG. 5, there is a notch 56 on the side facing the branch for the leaf spring. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the leaf spring has edging portions or similar deformed portions 58 on both sides of the portion inserted into the bent portion 42 in order to prevent movement in the length direction thereof. Both ends 60 of the leaf spring 40 are bent outwards upward so as to form a kind of guide shoe. As an alternative to this, the leaf spring could be in the form of a more or less closed loop (FIG. 6).
Due to the elastic force of the leaf spring 40, as shown in FIG.
18 and the member 20 are connected without a gap.

Arms of the fixture 8 to which the member 18 is attached as described above
After connecting and fixing to each other at 10, the member 20 is finally shifted to the member 18 and the member 20 is fixed.
Hook 16 onto the end 60 of the leaf spring 40 and then
The member 20 is pushed upwards while deforming the leaf spring until it can slide over the edging 22 of the corresponding member 18. Then, by shifting the member 20 toward the arm 12 of the fixture 8, it can be lowered, thus fitting the edging 24 into 22. In this way it is ensured that both members are connected to each other and that they are not accidentally blown up by the wind. The joints of the members are offset,
Further, since the collar portion 28 and the portion above the stone wall are provided with a slight inclination, it is completely prevented that water that causes dirt reaches the visible side of the stone wall 2 to which the member 20 is attached. It

The members 18, 20 may be made of different materials if necessary, and / or
Alternatively, another type of coating may be applied. For example, a member
A plate material coated with synthetic resin can be used as 20. Alternatively, either or both parts can be replaced by extruded profiles, preferably synthetic resin profiles.

The features of the embodiments of the present invention are summarized below.

As is known per se, the interconnecting edgings of both profiled members, as is known per se, forms the upwardly projecting collar, as described in claim 12, above the horizontal part. If the water blown off is blocked, the above-mentioned effect can be further enhanced. Furthermore, because the profiled plate consists of two parts, it can be mounted separately and thus easily, both parts being made of different materials and / or
Alternatively, it can be made of materials that have been subjected to different treatments.
Particularly, according to the measures described in claims 2 to 4, since the member can be fixed so as not to move,
Easy on-site assembly. On the other hand, the measures described in claims 5 to 8 are for facilitating factory manufacture of highly reliable products. Finally, the measures described in claims 9 and 10 more reliably prevent the deformed plate material from being blown up by the wind.

(Effect of the Invention) According to the present invention, the stone wall covering is formed by the horizontal first member and the vertical second member, thereby shifting the joint between the first member and the second member. As a result, it is possible to prevent rainwater or thawwater blown from the side by wind from leaving a dirty mark on the surface of the stone wall, which is at least mainly noticeable.

The first member and the second member are connected to each other via an edge portion having a shape that fits with each other, and the fixture is formed substantially along the cross section of the profiled member. Since it has a pair of arms, each of which is configured to fit into the edging provided on the outer ends of both profile members,
It is easy to install.
