Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of skylight equipment technology, specifically to an upper end water distribution device. Background Technology

[0002] Skylights are devices installed on factory roofs to help with lighting and ventilation. Most factories use steel structures with roof panels on the surface, and skylights are installed on these panels. Some existing ventilation skylights simply have a vent directly cut into the roof, with a cover hinged to one side. The cover is opened directly for use. Since the cover and vent are hinged together by a pivot, this method is cost-effective and economical. However, some factory roofs are constructed with corrugated steel sheets, requiring the skylight to be sealed with sealant at the roof connection. Because the skylight is installed on a sloped surface, especially during rain, accumulated water constantly washes over the connection between the skylight and the roof, leading to water leakage over time. Furthermore, when the skylight is closed, lighting is also affected. Therefore, this technical solution is proposed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies where the upper end of the sunroof is subject to strong water impact, resulting in poor sealing, and to provide an upper end water distribution device.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an upper end water distribution device, including a support frame set under the ridge tile, a water distribution plate for changing the direction of water flow is provided on the upper part of the support frame, a bottom frame for installing a skylight is provided on the lower part of the support frame, and an installation platform is provided on the edge of the bottom frame, the height of the installation platform being higher than that of the support frame.

[0005] Furthermore, the support frame is arranged along the width direction of the ridge tile, and the far end of the support frame is inclined downward.

[0006] Furthermore, the lower part of the water-dividing plate is provided with an upwardly protruding baffle, and the top of the baffle is provided with a bent plate facing the bottom frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the middle position of the baffle protrudes towards the ridge tile, and both ends of the baffle are set as inclined surfaces.

[0008] Furthermore, the water-dividing plate is a transparent plate, and connecting plates are provided at both ends of the water-dividing plate to connect with the support frame.

[0009] Furthermore, the water distribution plate is provided with drainage channels on both sides for drainage.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are as follows: The water-dividing plate is installed on the upper part of the support frame to change the direction of water flow and prevent rainwater from directly impacting the connection between the skylight and the roof. The lower part of the water-dividing plate is designed with an upward-protruding baffle. The top of the baffle is provided with a bent plate facing the bottom frame. The bent plate blocks the connection between the water-dividing plates and seals the connection, forming a double waterproof barrier. This divides the water-receiving area at the upper end of the skylight, reduces the impact force of the water flow, and at the same time, the guide channel diverts the rainwater flowing down, ensuring that the rainwater can flow smoothly along the preset path and avoid accumulating around the skylight.

[0015] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely for explaining the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0016] See Figures 1 to 3 This utility model discloses an upper end water distribution device, which aims to solve the problem of water seepage at the connection point caused by rainwater erosion when existing factory skylights are installed on color steel plate roofs, while also optimizing the lighting effect of the skylights. It mainly includes a support frame 2, a water distribution plate 3, and a guide channel 201. The support frame 2 is located at the lower part of the ridge tile 1, extending along the width direction of the ridge tile 1. Its design must take into account the roof's tilt angle. One end of the support frame 2 is located below the ridge tile 1, providing installation space for the water distribution plate 3. One end of the water distribution plate 3 is also located below the ridge tile 1, ensuring stable support and facilitating drainage. The far end of the support frame 2 is designed to slope downwards, helping to guide water flow away from the skylight installation area and reduce the risk of water accumulation.

[0017] The water diversion plate 3 is installed on the upper part of the support frame 2 to change the direction of water flow and prevent rainwater from directly impacting the connection between the skylight and the roof. The water diversion plate 3 is designed to be made of transparent material (such as FRP board), so that it can effectively divert water without affecting the lighting function of the skylight. This allows the skylight to receive auxiliary lighting through the water diversion plate 3 even when it is closed, thus improving the lighting function.

[0018] The two ends of the water distribution plate 3 are firmly connected to the support frame 2 via connecting plates, reducing installation difficulty and ensuring structural stability. The lower part of the water distribution plate 3 is designed with an upward-protruding baffle 4. The top of the baffle 4 is provided with a bent plate facing the bottom frame 5. The bent plate covers the connection between the water distribution plates 3 and is sealed at the connection to form a double waterproof barrier. The middle part of the baffle 4 protrudes towards the ridge tile 1, and the two ends are designed as slopes, which can more effectively disperse and guide the water flow, prevent the water flow from concentrating on a certain area, and extend the service life of the overall structure.

[0019] The bottom frame 5 is installed on the lower part of the support frame 2 to fix the skylight. The edge of the bottom frame 5 is designed with an installation platform. The height of the installation platform is higher than that of the support frame 2, so it will not affect the later installation of the skylight. At the same time, it facilitates drainage and reduces the risk of water seepage. A guide channel 201 is added on both sides of the water distribution plate 3. The guide channel 201 is set along the length of the support frame 2. During the rainy season, when there is a lot of rain, the rainwater flowing down from top to bottom will be blocked by the baffle 4, which divides the water receiving area at the upper end of the skylight and reduces the impact of the water flow. At the same time, the guide channel 201 guides the rainwater that flows down, ensuring that the rainwater can flow smoothly along the preset path and avoid accumulating around the skylight.

[0020] During installation, first, accurately position and fix the support frame 2 according to the roof's tilt angle and the position of the ridge tile 1. Then, install the water distribution plate 3 onto the support frame 2 through the connecting plate, ensuring that the water distribution plate 3 and the support frame 2 are tightly connected without gaps. Next, install the bottom frame 5 at the bottom of the support frame 2, using the height difference of the installation platform to reserve suitable drainage space for the skylight installation. After the skylight is installed, its edges should fit tightly against the bottom frame 5. If necessary, sealant can be used to further enhance the waterproof effect.

[0021] In terms of working principle, when rainwater flows down the roof, it is first intercepted by the water distribution plate 3 and its flow direction is changed. Most of the water flow is guided to the sides of the roof or to a position away from the skylight. The design of the baffle 4 and the bending plate further prevents the water flow from directly impacting the connection between the skylight and the roof. At the same time, the setting of the diversion channel 201 ensures that the water flow is quickly diverted and avoids accumulation around the skylight, thereby effectively solving the water seepage problem. It not only effectively solves the water seepage problem at the skylight installation point, but also optimizes the lighting effect of the skylight and improves the overall user experience and durability of the factory building.
