Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of building roofing technology, specifically relating to a modular waterproof and venting assembly for building roofs and its installation method. Background Technology
[0002] The roof, as the outer envelope of a building, is susceptible to leaks due to adverse natural factors such as rain, snow, wind, frost, solar radiation, and temperature fluctuations. Furthermore, most roof waterproofing materials are non-environmentally friendly organic materials, impacting the environment and the health of construction workers. Because water vapor remains in the roof insulation or leveling layer, its evaporation and expansion can cause blistering in ordinary waterproofing materials. Therefore, roof waterproofing construction requires the inclusion of vents, significantly increasing the difficulty of the process. The quality of roof waterproofing construction is crucial to the overall quality of the project; however, most construction companies impose time constraints and economic considerations during bidding, leading workers to compromise quality in order to meet deadlines. Ensuring both quality and timely completion requires a large number of experienced roof waterproofing workers, which contradicts the current building philosophy of reducing labor costs and prioritizing energy conservation and environmental protection.
[0003] Modular buildings offer numerous advantages, including rapid construction, low skill requirements for construction workers, high degree of prefabrication, minimal environmental pollution, and ease of future expansion. Using modular waterproofing components for building roofs can effectively solve many problems related to project quality, schedule, and material selection, aligning with current building concepts of reducing labor costs and promoting energy conservation and environmental protection. However, the use of modular waterproofing components for roofs must consider both the convenience of modular construction and the ability to allow gas to escape from the roof insulation or leveling layer. Currently, modular waterproofing components for roofs do not adequately address the gas venting function.
[0004] Given the above background, it is essential to propose a modular waterproof component with venting function and its installation. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem solved by this invention is to provide a modular waterproof and venting component for building roofs, which cleverly integrates roof venting function into the modular waterproof component, thus solving the problem that existing modular waterproof components for roofs do not have venting function.
[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, the present invention provides a modular waterproof and venting assembly for building roofs:
[0007] It includes a modular waterproof panel, which is disposed above the insulation layer. The modular waterproof panel is provided with vent holes, which are connected to the insulation layer.
[0008] A module connecting component is disposed above the modular waterproof membrane and is used to connect the modular waterproof membrane; the module connecting component is provided with an exhaust channel, which is connected to the exhaust hole;
[0009] Cap, used to connect the module connection component.
[0010] Preferably, the modular waterproof board has moisture-proof protrusions at both ends, and the vent holes are evenly distributed on the moisture-proof protrusions.
[0011] Preferably, a prefabricated adhesive tape is provided above and below the moisture-proof protrusion structure.
[0012] Preferably, the module connecting assembly is elongated and saddle-shaped, and is laid along the vertical direction of the modular waterproof liner.
[0013] Preferably, the module connecting component has pre-made adhesive tape on both sides of its bottom.
[0014] Preferably, the module connecting component has irregularly shaped structures on both sides, the irregularly shaped structures have exhaust channels, and the irregularly shaped structures are connected to each other by the cap.
[0015] Preferably, the irregular structure is vertically disposed on the module connection component.
[0016] Preferably, the modular waterproof liner has a serrated connection structure at both the upper and lower ends.
[0017] Preferably, the connection position of the modular connection component is staggered from the upper and lower connection positions of the modular waterproof membrane.
[0018] Another aspect of the present invention provides a method for installing the above-described modular waterproof and venting assembly for a building roof, comprising the following steps:
[0019] S1. Lay the modular waterproof membrane;
[0020] S2. Install the module connection component;
[0021] S3. Connect the module connection assembly using the cap;
[0022] S4. Apply waterproof sealant to all joints for waterproof sealing.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0024] 1. This invention provides a modular waterproof and venting assembly for building roofs, which cleverly integrates roof venting functionality into the modular waterproofing assembly. The modular connecting component serves both to connect the modular waterproofing board and to provide venting. By connecting the insulation layer, the vent holes on the modular waterproofing board, and the venting channels on the modular connecting component, gas within the insulation layer is vented, preventing moisture evaporation or expansion that could cause bulging of the waterproofing material and extending the service life of the waterproof roof.
[0025] 2. The present invention designs the modular connecting component into a long saddle shape, which, together with the moisture-proof protrusion structure on the modular waterproof board, connects the modular waterproof board on the one hand, and completely covers the vent hole on the other.
[0026] Simple structure and reasonable design;
[0027] 3. An installation method for a modular waterproof component applied to a building roof according to the present invention involves overlapping the upper and lower parts of the modular waterproof board using a sawtooth connecting structure at both ends, bonding the two rows using prefabricated adhesive tape and waterproof tape on the moisture-proof protrusions on the left and right ends, and aligning and bonding the prefabricated adhesive tape on both sides of the bottom of the modular connecting component with the prefabricated adhesive tape below the moisture-proof protrusions of the modular waterproof board. The construction is simple and saves labor costs.
[0028] 4. The serrated structure at the top and bottom ends, the moisture-proof protrusions at the left and right ends, and the prefabricated adhesive tape of the modular waterproof slab of this invention are all prefabricated, truly realizing a modular building with a high degree of assembly, low requirements for the technical level of construction personnel, fast construction speed, minimal environmental pollution, and convenient for later expansion.

[0040] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0041] The roof, as the outer envelope of a building, is susceptible to leaks due to adverse natural factors such as rain, snow, wind, frost, solar radiation, and temperature fluctuations. Furthermore, most roof waterproofing materials are non-environmentally friendly organic materials, impacting the environment and the health of construction workers. Because water vapor remains in the roof insulation or leveling layer, its evaporation and expansion can cause blistering in ordinary waterproofing materials. Therefore, roof waterproofing construction requires the inclusion of vents, significantly increasing the difficulty of the process. The quality of roof waterproofing construction is crucial to the overall quality of the project; however, most construction companies impose time constraints and economic considerations during bidding, leading workers to compromise quality in order to meet deadlines. Ensuring both quality and timely completion requires a large number of experienced roof waterproofing workers, which contradicts the current building philosophy of reducing labor costs and prioritizing energy conservation and environmental protection.
[0042] Modular buildings offer numerous advantages, including rapid construction, low skill requirements for construction workers, high degree of prefabrication, minimal environmental pollution, and ease of future expansion. Using modular waterproofing components for building roofs can effectively solve many problems related to project quality, schedule, and material selection, aligning with current building concepts of reducing labor costs and promoting energy conservation and environmental protection. However, the use of modular waterproofing components for roofs must consider both the convenience of modular construction and the ability to allow gas to escape from the roof insulation or leveling layer. Currently, modular waterproofing components for roofs do not adequately address the gas venting function.
[0043] This invention provides a modular waterproof and venting assembly for building roofs: including a modular waterproof panel disposed above an insulation layer, the modular waterproof panel having vent holes that communicate with the insulation layer;
[0044] A modular connecting component is located above the modular waterproof membrane and is used to connect the modular waterproof membrane; the modular connecting component is provided with an exhaust channel, which is connected to an exhaust hole;
[0045] Cap, used to connect module connection components.
[0046] Modular waterproof panels are laid on top of the roof insulation layer (a leveling layer can be installed on top if the insulation layer is uneven). They can be laid vertically and horizontally. Vent holes on the modular waterproof panels connect to the insulation layer (or including the leveling layer) to expel any gas trapped within it. Modular connecting components connect the modular waterproof panels and cover the vent holes. An air duct cavity is formed between the modular waterproof panels and the connecting components, and the vent holes connect to this cavity, which in turn connects to an exhaust channel. Gas trapped within the insulation layer (or including the leveling layer) is discharged to the outside through the vent holes, air duct cavity, and exhaust channel. A cap connects two modular connecting components to prevent rainwater from entering the modular waterproof venting component through the gaps between the components and the exhaust channel, further enhancing its waterproof performance.
[0047] Preferably, the modular waterproof panel has moisture-proof protrusions at both ends, and vent holes are evenly distributed on the moisture-proof protrusions. The function of the moisture-proof protrusions is to facilitate the modular connection of the modular waterproof panel. By evenly distributing the vent holes on the moisture-proof protrusions, the vent holes are also evenly distributed on both ends of the modular waterproof panel. This not only prevents poor gas escape from the insulation layer, but also reduces the area covered by the vent holes when the module connection components cover them.
[0048] Preferably, prefabricated adhesive tape is provided above and below the moisture-proof protrusion structure. The prefabricated adhesive tape above the moisture-proof protrusion structure works in conjunction with waterproof tape for bonding the modular waterproof panels between two rows. The prefabricated adhesive tape below the moisture-proof protrusion structure is used for bonding the module connection components. The prefabricated adhesive tape is selected with waterproof and moisture-proof functions, and is manufactured in the factory. During on-site installation, only the outer sealing paper of the adhesive tape needs to be peeled off for splicing and sealing, facilitating modular installation on-site.
[0049] Preferably, the module connecting assembly is elongated and saddle-shaped, laid along the vertical direction of the modular waterproof membrane. The elongated and saddle-shaped module connecting assembly, in conjunction with the moisture-proof protrusions on the modular waterproof membrane, connects the modular waterproof membrane on one hand, and completely covers the vent holes on the other.
[0050] Preferably, the modular connecting assembly has prefabricated adhesive tape on both sides of its bottom. The prefabricated adhesive tape on both sides of the bottom and the prefabricated adhesive tape under the moisture-proof protrusions of the modular waterproof panel are bonded together to connect two adjacent modular waterproof panels on site. The prefabricated adhesive tape is manufactured in the factory; during on-site installation, only the outer sealing paper of the adhesive tape needs to be removed for assembly and sealing. This truly achieves a modular building with a high degree of prefabrication, low skill requirements for construction workers, fast construction speed, minimal environmental pollution, and convenient future expansion.
[0051] Preferably, the modular connecting components have irregularly shaped structures on both sides, with exhaust channels on these structures. The irregularly shaped structures are connected by caps. The irregularly shaped structures on both sides of the modular connecting components facilitate the connection of the caps, which simultaneously cover the connection gaps between the modular connecting components and the exhaust channels, preventing rainwater from entering the interior of the modular waterproof exhaust components. By placing the exhaust channels on the irregularly shaped structures and then on both sides of the modular connecting components, the structural dimensions of the caps are optimized compared to having exhaust channels all over the modular connecting components.
[0052] Preferably, the irregular structure is vertically disposed on the module connection assembly. The vertical orientation is more conducive to the exhaust of gas within the insulation layer.
[0053] Preferably, the modular waterproofing liner has a serrated connecting structure at both the top and bottom ends. The modular waterproofing liner is overlapped by the serrated connecting structure, and the joints are sealed with waterproof adhesive. To achieve a reliable waterproofing effect, this modular waterproofing liner is suitable for roofs with a unidirectional slope greater than 10 degrees.
[0054] Preferably, the connection positions of the modular connecting components are staggered from the upper and lower connection positions of the modular waterproof membrane. This prevents rainwater from entering the interior of the modular waterproof venting component through overlapping connection positions, further improving the waterproof performance of the modular waterproof venting component.
[0055] Another object of the present invention is to provide an installation method for the above-mentioned modular waterproof and venting assembly for building roofs, comprising the following steps:
[0056] S1. Lay modular waterproof panels;
[0057] S2. Install module connection components;
[0058] S3. Connect the components using the cap-connecting module;
[0059] S4. Apply waterproof sealant to all joints for waterproof sealing.
[0060] First, lay the modular waterproof panels, overlapping them using the pre-fabricated serrated connecting structures at both ends. Then, use pre-fabricated adhesive tape and waterproof tape on the moisture-proof protrusions at both ends to bond the two rows together, ensuring all vents covered by the waterproof tape are open. After the modular waterproof panels are laid, install the module connecting components. Align and bond the pre-fabricated adhesive tape on the bottom sides of the connecting components with the pre-fabricated adhesive tape below the moisture-proof protrusions on the modular waterproof panels. During installation, align the irregular structures at both ends of the connecting components, connecting them with caps. Finally, seal all joints with waterproof adhesive. This installation method is simple and saves labor costs.

The modular connecting component 2 is bonded together with the pre-fabricated adhesive tape 7 on both sides of the bottom and the pre-fabricated adhesive tape 7 below the moisture-proof protrusions on the modular waterproof membrane 1 by mutual alignment.
[0068] The installation method of the modular waterproof and ventilated assembly for building roofs in this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0069] S1. Lay the modular waterproof board 1; use the pre-made serrated ends of the modular waterproof board 1 to overlap the upper and lower sections, and use the pre-made adhesive tape 7 and waterproof tape 9 on the moisture-proof protrusions at both ends to bond the two rows together, and open all the vent holes 4 covered by the waterproof tape 9.
