[0014] In order to make the technical solution of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Embodiment 1
[0015] As in the Fig. As shown in Figures 1 to 6, the water-retaining window of the invention comprises a water-retaining element 11 connected to the window. The window is connected to the wall 31.
[0016] The window has an outer window 21 and an inner window 22. The inner window 22 is arranged on the inside of the wall 31. The outer window 21 and the inner window 22 are firmly connected to each other. Water drainage channels 23 are provided around the outer window 21. The water retention element 11 is firmly connected to the water drainage channel 23. The outer window 21 and the inner window 22 can be connected by snap-lock or by screws or other connecting elements.
[0017] In use, the window is installed on the wall 31. The aluminum sheet wall 31 usually forms recessed aluminum grooves 32, which are recessed toward the inside of the wall. Water leakage easily occurs through the aluminum grooves 32. To ensure that water does not penetrate into the interior of the house, a guide structure is provided on the top of the window. The guide structure is located on the inside of the wall. The bottom of the guide structure is close to the interior window 22. The water that penetrates on the inside of the wall is guided by the guide structure into the water drainage channel 23 and thus does not flow along the inside of the wall 31.
[0018] Optionally, the management structure, as in Fig. 5, a retaining strip 24. One side of the retaining strip 24 is attached to the wall. The retaining strip 24 runs vertically or substantially vertically to the direction of extension of the aluminum grooves 32. The retaining strip 24 is located above the junction of the wall and the window and serves to collect the water flowing down from the wall. From the underside of the retaining strip 24 extends a slant strip 25 that slopes towards the water drainage channel 23. The slant strip 25 can guide the rainwater completely into the water drainage channel 23 so that it flows into the water drainage channels 23 on both sides, thereby reducing the penetration of rainwater into the wall. In another embodiment, as shown in Fig. As shown in Figure 7, the guide structure includes a retaining strip 24 that is firmly connected to the inner wall of the water drainage channel 23. At the same time, the retaining strip 24 extends upward from the water drainage channel 23. The retaining strip 24 is in contact with the wall 31. At the same time, the retaining strip 24 covers part of the aluminum grooves 32 of the wall 31. Rainwater flows along the aluminum grooves 32 and comes into contact with the retaining strip 24. To further reduce water penetration, the inclined strip may also be provided.
[0019] As in the Fig. 1 and Fig. As shown in Figure 2, the water retaining element 11 has a main part 12. The top of the main part 12 is firmly connected to a guide part 13. The guide part 13 is inclined. When the water retaining element 11 is firmly connected to the water drainage channel 23, the main part 12 is in contact with the bottom wall of the water drainage channel 23. An angle is formed between the guide part 13 and the inner walls of the water drainage channel 23. The angle serves to guide the water drainage.
[0020] In the water drainage channel 23 on one side, two water retention elements 11 are arranged vertically. The upper and lower water retention elements 11 are arranged symmetrically. As shown in Fig.As shown in Figure 8, the guide portion 13 of the upper water retention member 11 is located at the upper portion of the water retention member 11. A trough is formed between the guide portion 13 and the inner walls of the water drainage channel 23. As the rainwater flows downward, the rainwater flows into the trough and then exits from the upper portion of the guide portion 13 (the guide portion 13 extends obliquely relative to the inner walls of the water drainage channel, forming a triangular trough with them). When the rainwater flows out of the guide portion 13, it forms an arcuate water flow and does not come into contact with the window, facilitating drainage.
[0021] In the lower water retention element 11, the guide part 13 is located below the main part 12. The guide part 13 also forms an inclined surface, whereby the rainwater also flows off in an arc.
[0022] Furthermore, the water retention element 11 has a connecting part 14 that is firmly connected to one side of the main part 12. The connecting part 14 is provided with a connecting hole 15 for fastening. A screw is passed through the connecting hole 15 to fasten the water retention element 11 to the side wall of the water drainage channel to achieve fixation of the water retention element.
[0023] The connecting part 14 and the guide part 13 are not firmly connected to each other, and a gap 16 exists between the connecting part 14 and the guide part 13. If the water flow is too small, the rainwater can easily collect in the basin at the upper water retention element 11 in the water drainage channel 23, which may lead to corrosion of the water retention element 11. The gap 16 between the connecting part 14 and the guide part 13 can drain the accumulated water to prevent damage to the water retention element 11.
[0024] In the lower water retention element 11 in the water drainage channel 23, the gap 16 can drain the rainwater better, whereby the water retention element 11 does not corrode as easily.
[0025] The above embodiments represent only some embodiments of the present invention, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be understood that various modifications and improvements can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all of these are within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be determined by the appended claims.
