Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of building construction technology, and in particular to a deformable roof structure. Background Technology
[0002] The roof is an important component of a building, often referred to as the "fifth facade." The shape and structure of the roof directly affect the building's appearance and aesthetics. Depending on the roof material, roofs can be classified as concrete roofs, wooden roofs, sintered material roofs, and polymer material roofs.
[0003] For buildings, roofs not only provide shelter for people and objects inside, but also divert rainwater. Users can even use roofs as a platform to carry out daily activities, such as drying clothes and grains, and installing solar panels, effectively expanding the functions of roofs and enriching the daily lives of users.
[0004] For building drainage considerations, one or more sides of the roof are usually designed to be sloping. The slope of the roof varies in different regions with different climates. For roofs with a large slope, it is difficult for users to dry clothes and grains on such a steep roof. The two roof usage requirements mentioned above (i.e., drainage and drying of items) are reflected in the roof structure and there is a certain structural conflict, namely the contradiction between a horizontal roof and a sloping roof. Therefore, in order to make the roof meet the above two practical needs, the relevant roof structure needs to be further improved. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to enable the roof to switch between horizontal and sloping shapes, this application provides a deformable roof structure.
[0006] This application provides a deformable roof structure, which adopts the following technical solution: A deformable roof structure includes two roof panels rotatably mounted on the top of a building. One roof panel has a plurality of extension plates I, and the other roof panel has a plurality of extension plates II. A gap I for accommodating an extension plate II is provided between two adjacent extension plates I, and a gap II for accommodating an extension plate I is provided between two adjacent extension plates II. The structure also includes a drive source for driving the roof panels to rotate. A sealing device is provided inside the roof panels for sealing the corresponding gap I or gap II.
[0007] With the above technical solution, when operators need to dry clothes and grains on the roof of a building, by activating the drive source, the drive source can drive the two roof panels to rotate, so that the roof panels rotate downward to a horizontal state, so that operators can dry clothes and grains on the roof of the building. At the same time, it also allows extension plate one to enter gap one and extension plate two to enter gap two, thereby reducing the gaps in gap one and gap two and increasing the activity area of the roof (i.e., the roof panels).
[0008] When rainy weather arrives, operators activate the drive source, which rotates the roof panels upwards, causing both roof panels to tilt, thus guiding rainwater downwards along the panels. A sealing device then closes gaps one and two to reduce rainwater entering the building through the roof (i.e., the roof panels).
[0009] In summary, by activating the drive source, the operator can rotate the roof panel, thereby switching the roof panel between a horizontal and a sloping state to meet the needs of rainwater drainage and the operator's need to use the roof to dry items.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured such that: the drive source includes a motor, the motor is mounted on the top of the building, and each of the roof panels is provided with an extension rod, the extension rod being mounted on the output shaft of the motor.
[0011] With the above technical solution, when the operator needs to switch the roof panel between a horizontal and a sloping position, the first motor is started. The output shaft of the first motor drives the extension rod to rotate, and the extension rod drives the roof panel to rotate, thereby enabling the roof panel to switch between horizontal and sloping positions to meet the different usage needs of the operator.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured such that the width of the first extension plate is the same as the width of the second gap, and the width of the second extension plate is the same as the width of the first gap.
[0013] With the above technical solution, when both roof panels are rotated to a horizontal position, since the width of extension plate one is the same as the width of gap two, and the width of extension plate two is the same as the width of gap one, the gap between extension plate one and extension plate two is reduced, thereby reducing the possibility of items drying on the roof falling.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the present application may be further configured such that: the enclosure device includes a plurality of enclosure plates one and a plurality of enclosure plates two, the enclosure plates one being slidably disposed within the roof panel where the extension plate one is located, the enclosure plates two being slidably disposed within the roof panel where the extension plate two is located, the plurality of enclosure plates one and the plurality of extension plates two being arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and the plurality of enclosure plates two and the plurality of extension plates one being arranged in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0015] With the above technical solution, when the operator rotates both roof panels to an inclined state, the closing plate one and the closing plate two are slid obliquely upward along the inclined direction of the roof panels, so that the closing plate one abuts against the bottom surface of the extension plate two and the closing plate two abuts against the bottom surface of the extension plate one, thereby completing the sealing of gap one and gap two, so as to reduce the possibility of rainwater entering the building through the roof (i.e., the roof panel).
[0016] Conversely, when the operator needs to rotate the roof panel to a horizontal position, first slide the sealing plate one and sealing plate two inward into the roof panel to eliminate the interference caused by the sealing plate two to the rotation of the roof panel.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured such that: each of the roof panels has a plurality of lead screws rotatably installed therein, wherein the plurality of lead screws in one of the roof panels are threadedly connected to a plurality of the first enclosure plates, and the plurality of lead screws in another roof panel are threadedly connected to a plurality of the second enclosure plates.
[0018] With the above technical solution, when the operator rotates both roof panels to an inclined state, by rotating the lead screw, under the driving action of the lead screw on the first and second sealing plates, the first sealing plate slides into the first gap to close the first gap, and the second sealing plate enters into the second gap to close the second gap.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured such that: each lead screw is equipped with a worm gear, each roof panel is rotatably mounted with a worm, the worm meshing with the worm gear in the roof panel, each roof panel is equipped with a second motor, and the worm is mounted on the output shaft of the corresponding second motor.
[0020] With the above technical solution, when the operator rotates both roof panels to an inclined state, starting motor two causes the output shaft of motor two to drive the worm gear to rotate. The worm gear simultaneously drives the worm wheel inside the roof panel to rotate, thereby driving the corresponding lead screw to rotate. This drives sealing plate one and sealing plate two to close gap one and gap two respectively. Therefore, by starting motor two, the sliding operation of several sealing plates one or several sealing plates two can be completed simultaneously, thus simplifying the operation steps of this structure.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured such that: a sliding plate is provided on each side wall of the closed plate, and a sliding groove is provided on each extension plate on both sides of the gap for the sliding plate to slide.
[0022] Through the above technical solution, during the process of the closed panel sliding outward to the roof panel, the sliding plate also slides along the sliding groove on the extension plate. Under the mutual resistance of the extension plate and the sliding plate, the integrity of the extension plate and the closed panel is improved.
[0023] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured such that: a sliding plate 2 is provided at one end of the closing plate 1 near the gap 1, and a sliding groove 2 is provided on the extension plate 2 for the sliding plate 2 to be inserted into.
[0024] With the above technical solution, when the sealing plate 1 slides outward to the roof panel and abuts against the bottom surface of the extension plate 2, the sliding plate 2 on the sealing plate 1 can be inserted into the sliding groove 2. On the one hand, it improves the integrity between the sealing plate 1 and the extension plate 2, and on the other hand, it further reduces the possibility of rainwater entering the building interior.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured such that: a reinforcing plate is provided between the first extension plate and the second extension plate, one side of the reinforcing plate is inserted into the first extension plate, and the other end of the reinforcing plate is inserted into the second extension plate, wherein the reinforcing plate, the first extension plate, and the second extension plate form a triangular-like structure.
[0026] With the above technical solution, after the operator rotates both roof panels to an inclined state, the reinforcing plate is inserted into extension plate one and extension plate two, so that the reinforcing plate, extension plate one and extension plate two form a triangular structure, which improves the integrity of the reinforcing plate, extension plate one and extension plate two, thereby improving the stability of the roof.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured such that: both the first extension plate and the second extension plate are fixedly connected to a connecting rod, and the connecting rod is provided with a connecting groove for the reinforcing plate to be inserted.
[0028] By using the above technical solution, since the connecting groove for inserting the reinforcing plate is opened on the connecting rod and not on extension plate one and extension plate two, the impact of the grooving treatment on the structural strength of extension plate one and extension plate two is reduced, thereby improving the safety of the roof structure.
[0029] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects: 1. The operator starts motor one to drive the two roof panels to rotate, thereby switching the roof panels between horizontal and inclined states to meet the needs of rainwater drainage and the needs of the operator to use the roof to dry items, making full use of solar energy to dry items, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of solar energy. 2. When the operator rotates both roof panels to the tilted position, slide the sealing plate one and the sealing plate two so that the sealing plate one abuts against the bottom surface of the extension plate two and the sealing plate two abuts against the bottom surface of the extension plate one, thereby completing the sealing of gap one and gap two to reduce the possibility of rainwater entering the building. 3. Since the reinforcing plate, extension plate one, and extension plate two can form a triangular structure, the integrity of the reinforcing plate, extension plate one, and extension plate two is improved, thereby enhancing the stability of the roof and the safety of the building.

[0036] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0037] This application discloses a deformable roof structure in its embodiments.
[0038] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, a deformable roof structure includes two roof panels 1, which are the same size and are rotatably mounted on the top of the building, with the two roof panels 1 rotating in opposite directions.
[0039] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, each roof panel 1 has two extension rods 211 fixedly connected to its lower surface. The extension rods 211 are rotatably installed on the top of the building. A motor 21 is installed between the two extension rods 211 on the same roof panel 1. The motor 21 is also installed on the top of the building and is a double-headed motor. The two extension rods 211 on the same roof panel 1 are fixedly connected to the two output shafts of the motor 21 respectively.
[0040] The operator starts motor 21, and the output shaft of motor 21 drives the corresponding roof panel 1 to rotate through extension rod 211, thereby realizing the switching between the inclined and horizontal positions of the roof panel 1 to meet the needs of rainwater drainage and the needs of the operator to dry items on the roof.
[0041] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 3 As shown, one roof panel 1 has several extension plates 11 integrally formed with the roof panel 1. The other roof panel 1 has several extension plates 12 integrally formed with the roof panel 1. The extension plates 11 and 12 are arranged alternately and sequentially. A gap 111 is provided between two adjacent extension plates 11 to accommodate an extension plate 12, and a gap 121 is provided between two adjacent extension plates 12 to accommodate an extension plate 11. The width of the extension plate 11 is the same as the width of the gap 121, and the width of the extension plate 12 is the same as the width of the gap 111.
[0042] When operators need to dry items on the building roof, they start motor 21, which drives the two roof panels 1 to rotate. This causes the roof panels 1, extension panels 11, and extension panels 12 to rotate downwards to a horizontal position, facilitating the drying of items on the roof. Furthermore, as extension panels 11 and 12 enter gap 121, the gaps are reduced, increasing the usable area of the roof (roof panels 1). This allows operators to dry more items, such as grains and clothing, fully utilizing solar energy and improving solar energy efficiency.
[0043] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 4 As shown, a sealing device 3 is provided inside the roof panel 1 for closing the corresponding gap 111 or gap 121. The sealing device 3 includes several sealing plates 31 and several sealing plates 32. The sealing plates 31 are slidably disposed inside the roof panel 1 where the extension plate 11 is located along the width direction of the roof panel 1. The sealing plates 32 are slidably disposed inside the roof panel 1 where the extension plate 12 is located along the width direction of the roof panel 1. The several sealing plates 31 and several extension plates 12 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The width of the sealing plates 31 is the same as the width of the gap 111. The several sealing plates 32 and several extension plates 11 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The width of the sealing plates 32 is the same as the width of the gap 121.
[0044] See attached document Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 As shown, several lead screws 13 are rotatably installed in each roof panel 1. In one roof panel 1, the lead screws 13 are threadedly connected to several closed plates 31, and in another roof panel 1, the lead screws 13 are threadedly connected to several closed plates 32. Each lead screw 13 has a worm gear 101 coaxially fixedly connected to its end. The worm gear 101 is rotatably installed in the roof panel 1. A worm 14 is rotatably installed in each roof panel 1, meshing with each worm gear 101 in its respective roof panel 1. A motor 15 is installed in each roof panel 1, and the worm 14 is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the corresponding motor 15.
[0045] When rainy weather arrives, the operator first starts motor 21, causing the roof panel 1 to rotate to an inclined position, so as to guide rainwater to flow downward along the roof panel 1. Then, motor 215 is started. The output shaft of motor 215 drives worm gear 14 to rotate. Worm gear 14 drives worm wheel 101 inside the roof panel 1 to rotate, thereby driving the corresponding lead screw 13 to rotate. This drives the sealing plate 31 and sealing plate 32 to slide outward from the roof panel 1, abutting against the bottom surface of the corresponding extension plate 12 and extension plate 11, sealing gap 111 and gap 221 to reduce rainwater entering the building.
[0046] See attached document Figure 3 and attached Figure 5As shown, sliding plates 131 are provided on both sides of the sidewalls of the sealing plate 31. The sliding plates 131 and the sealing plate 31 are integrally formed. The extension plates 11 on both sides of the gap 111 are provided with sliding grooves 112 for the sliding plates 131 to slide. The inner walls of the sliding plates 131 and the sliding grooves 112 fit together to improve the integrity of the extension plates 111 and the sealing plate 31. The sealing plate 32 also has a structure similar to that of the sliding plates 131. Its function, principle and related structure are basically the same as those on the sealing plate 31, and will not be described again here.
[0047] See attached document Figure 3 and attached Figure 5 As shown, a sliding plate 132 is provided at one end of the closed plate 31 near the gap 111. A sliding groove 113 is provided on the extension plate 12 for the sliding plate 132 to be inserted. The inner walls of the sliding plate 132 and the sliding groove 113 fit together. In the figure, the sliding groove 113 is marked on the extension plate 11 because it is partially blocked by some components.
[0048] When the sealing plate 31 abuts against the bottom surface of the extension plate 12, the sliding plate 132 on the sealing plate 31 can be inserted into the sliding groove 113. This not only improves the overall integrity between the sealing plate 31 and the extension plate 12, but also further reduces the possibility of rainwater entering the building. The sealing plate 32 also has a structure similar to the sliding plate 132. Its function and principle are basically the same as the relevant structure on the sealing plate 31, and will not be described in detail here.
[0049] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, connecting rods 5 are fixedly connected to the bottom surfaces of extension plate 11 and extension plate 2 12. Connecting grooves 51 are provided on the connecting rods 5. A reinforcing plate 4 is provided between extension plate 11 and extension plate 2 12. One side of the reinforcing plate 4 is inserted into the connecting groove 51 of the connecting rod 5 on extension plate 11, and the other side is inserted into the connecting groove 51 of the connecting rod 5 on extension plate 2 12. The reinforcing plate 4, extension plate 11 and extension plate 2 12 form a triangular structure 41.
[0050] After both roof panels 1 are rotated to the tilted position, the operator inserts the reinforcing plate 4 into the connecting groove 51 on the connecting rod 5, so that the reinforcing plate 4, the extension plate 11 and the extension plate 2 12 form a triangular structure 41, thereby improving the rigidity and integrity of the roof.
[0051] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: the operator drives the two roof panels 1 to rotate, thereby switching the roof panels 1 between a horizontal and an inclined state to meet the needs of rainwater drainage and the operator's need to use the roof to dry items. This allows for full utilization of solar energy to dry items and improves the efficiency of solar energy utilization.
[0052] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are all preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
