Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of metal roof gutters for buildings, and more specifically, to an external gutter system. Background Technology
[0002] A gutter is the recessed section between two spans of a building's roof. Roof drainage is divided into organized drainage and unorganized drainage (free drainage). Organized drainage generally collects rainwater into gutters and then discharges it through rain pipes. The gutter that collects rainwater is called a gutter. Gutters are divided into internal gutters and external gutters. Internal gutters are those inside the outer wall and usually have a parapet wall; external gutters are those that extend beyond the outer wall and usually do not have a parapet wall, and are also called eaves gutters.
[0003] In most buildings, the construction of eaves gutters is relatively complex, mainly because they are located at the edge of the building's roof. They not only play a crucial role in the drainage system but also need to maintain the overall aesthetic appeal of the building. Therefore, most buildings require decorative treatment for their eaves gutters, i.e., cladding them with metal panels. In railway construction projects, especially in platform steel structure canopies, the combination of eaves gutters (or roof gutters) and decorative aluminum panels is even more common. Currently, conventional roof gutters require welded steel keels for support, increasing material costs; conventional roof gutters have a limited form and are only suitable for open-air applications, limiting their overall decorative effect; conventional roof gutters require the installation of the keel first, resulting in a longer installation time; and since conventional roof gutters are not exposed, subsequent maintenance requires time to identify the points needing repair. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems in related technologies, this utility model provides an external gutter system that can solve the above problems.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:
[0006] An external gutter system includes a roof panel fixing component. A roof panel is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixing component, and a steel fixing assembly is fixedly connected to the lower end of the fixing component. A gutter is connected to the side of the steel fixing assembly facing the eaves via a support member. One side of the gutter's opening is located inside the eaves of the roof panel, and the other side is located outside the eaves of the roof panel. A strip-shaped support member is welded between the upper parts of the two flanges of the gutter. A water-blocking plate is connected to the lower end of the roof panel fixing component on the eaves side, and a foam plug is provided at the eaves end of the roof panel fixing component.
[0007] Furthermore, the steel fixing assembly includes an I-shaped connector, and an E-shaped reinforcing member is connected to the lower end face of the lower flange of the connector.
[0008] Furthermore, one side of the web of the first connector is connected to the first support member via a long strip connecting plate, and the first support member is a long strip rectangular plate.
[0009] Furthermore, a second connector is welded to the upper end of the gutter located inside the eaves, and an L-shaped support member three is welded to the lower end of the gutter located inside the eaves. The second connector is connected to the upper end of the first support member by a bolt fastener one, and the third support member three is connected to the lower end of the first support member by a bolt fastener two.
[0010] Furthermore, the second connector includes a rectangular plate second welded to the web of the gutter, and a triangular plate welded to the rectangular plate second, wherein the triangular plate is welded to the upper end of the second support member.
[0011] Furthermore, one end of the water-blocking plate extends into the gutter.
[0012] Furthermore, one side of the web of the gutter is a sloping structure, and the sloping structure is located on the outside of the eaves.
[0013] Furthermore, an angle steel keel is welded to the bottom of the steel fixing component, and an aluminum plate is installed on the outside of the angle steel keel. The top of the aluminum plate is provided with a flange, which contacts the bottom of the gutter.
