Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of lightning protection structure technology in building construction, specifically relating to a waterproof lightning protection device for the roof of a steel structure building. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the widespread application of prefabricated steel structure building metal roofs and a large number of electronic devices, roof lightning rod systems have become an important part of building structures to prevent lightning strikes. Currently, the conventional practice for roof lightning protection devices is to pass the lightning rod through the parapet wall cover and weld it to the joists to form the lightning protection system. This method damages the aluminum coping, affects the sealing effect of the coping edges, and poses a risk of water leakage.
[0003] Traditional lightning protection methods involve direct-entry lightning rods that pass through an aluminum capping plate on the parapet wall and are welded to the keel. However, the design thickness of the aluminum capping plate is limited, typically 0.4mm, as thicker plates are difficult to bend. This method requires drilling holes in the capping plate, significantly increasing the risk of water seepage. Therefore, a waterproof lightning protection device that bypasses the aluminum capping plate on the steel structure roof is needed to solve the problem of water seepage into the wall caused by existing lightning rods passing through the capping plate.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0021] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a waterproof lightning protection device for the roof of a steel structure building includes a lightning protection rod 1 and a connecting rod positioning component 2. The lightning protection rod 1 adopts a bent lightning protection rod structure and includes a "C" bend rod and a vertical connecting rod. The "C" bend rod and the vertical connecting rod are integrally formed. The lower part of the "C" bend rod is installed at the bottom of the horizontal steel keel 5 through the connecting rod positioning component 4. The lower bend of the "C" bend rod is set as a sunken bend angle 102. The top of the vertical connecting rod is connected to the lightning arrester connecting rod 2 through the connecting rod lightning protection clip 3.
[0022] The bottom of the recessed bend 102 is lower than the bottom of the "C" bend. The recessed bend 102 ensures that water flowing down from the lightning arrester rod 1 flows or drips from the lowest point, preventing it from rising along the lightning arrester rod 1 and entering the holes in the inner lining plate 10. The outside of the holes at the connection between the inner lining plate 10 and the lightning arrester rod 1 is treated with sealant. This prevents water from entering the wall, avoids the risk of roof leaks, solves rework problems, and saves costs.
[0023] The connecting rod lightning arrester 3 is provided with a fixed plate 301, a movable plate 302, a connecting rod groove 303, a clamping bolt 304, and a locking nut 305. The bottom of the fixed plate 301 is welded and fixed to the top of the vertical connecting rod. The fixed plate 301 and the movable plate 302 are provided with connecting rod grooves 303 at opposite positions. The connecting rod grooves 303 clamp the two sides of the lightning arrester connecting rod 2.
[0024] The fixed plate 301 has a through hole, and the movable plate 302 has a threaded hole. The threaded hole is internally threaded to connect to the clamping bolt 304. The clamping bolt 304 passes through the through hole, and the clamping bolt 304 is threaded to connect to the locking nut 305. The locking nut 305 is located on the outside of the movable plate 302.
[0025] The connecting rod positioning component 4 is provided with a "U" shaped clip 401, a fixing ear 402 and an outwardly expanding bending plate 403. The "U" shaped clip 401 is provided with fixing ears 402 on both sides. The fixing ears 402 are provided with mounting holes. Bolts pass through the mounting holes and are threaded into the threaded holes at the bottom of the horizontal steel keel 5. The "U" shaped clip 401 installs the lightning protection connecting rod 1 at the bottom of the horizontal steel keel 5.
[0026] An outwardly expanding bend plate 403 is provided on one side of the "U"-shaped card 401. The outwardly expanding space formed by the outwardly expanding bend plate 403 allows the stop block 101 to pass through. The stop block 101 is welded to the lower part of the "C"-shaped bend.
[0027] The bottom of the horizontal steel keel 5 is fixedly connected to the vertical steel frame 6, and the space between the vertical steel frames 6 is filled with walls. The outer side of the wall is provided with an integrated exterior wall panel 9 with thermal insulation and decoration, and the inner side of the wall is provided with an inner lining panel 10. The top of the horizontal steel keel 5 is provided with a top insulation layer 8, and the outer side of the top insulation layer 8 is wrapped with an upper aluminum plate 7. The "C" bend rod crosses the upper aluminum plate 7 and passes through the inner lining panel 10.
[0028] Construction steps of this utility model:
[0029] 1) Workshop workers cut and prepare materials according to the processing drawings. D12mm galvanized round steel is bent into finished products according to the processing details, and a sunken bend is made at the bottom to ensure that the bending angle meets the technical requirements, with an angle error of ≤±2°, and then galvanized.
[0030] 2) Drill bolt holes at the bottom of the horizontal steel keel 5 to install “U” type clips 401, and make drilling marks on the ALC wall panel (inner lining plate 10) installed on the outside.
[0031] 3) Drilling holes in the wall: After the inner lining plate 10 is installed, drilling operations are carried out according to the drilling mark positions determined by the detailed drawings. Drilling is carried out as the inner lining plate 10 is installed on the wall. The hole diameter error is ≤2mm.
[0032] 4) On-site operators shall pass the lightning protection rod 1 through the ALC wall panel (inner lining plate 10) and connect it to the "U" shaped clip 401 according to the technical requirements of the drawings; tilt the lightning protection rod 1 to find the stop block 101 to pass through the channel left by the outward expansion plate 403 and through the "U" shaped clip 401, and then straighten the lightning protection rod 1 to connect the lightning arrester rod 2. At this time, the stop block 101 blocks the outside of the "U" shaped clip 401 to prevent the lightning protection rod 1 from being pulled out of the "U" shaped clip 401 by external force and damaged.
[0033] 5) After the operator connects the lightning arrester to the lightning rod 2 via the connecting rod lightning arrester clip 3, and after the installation is completed and verified, the opening of the inner lining plate 10 is sealed with glue.
[0034] 6) After the lightning arrester is installed, workers begin the finishing touches and exterior wall panel installation to avoid damaging the lightning protection system. Finally, the on-site workers install the top-sealing aluminum panel. After all work is completed, the lightning protection system is tested.
