Description

TECHNICAL AREA

[0001] The present utility model discloses a garden shed with a veranda and belongs to the technical field of buildings. STATE OF THE ART

[0002] Gardening requires a variety of tools due to the careful maintenance of flowers and plants. Therefore, garden sheds are often built to house the necessary tools and ensure optimal storage. This not only provides convenient storage but also contributes to a clean and aesthetically pleasing garden.

[0003] Existing garden sheds, however, lack sufficient outdoor space, making it difficult to meet users' needs for relaxation, enjoying the scenery, or gardening activities under a veranda. This results in a relatively limited range of functions for the garden shed. Conventional verandas are constructed separately and usually assembled with screws, with the screws exposed directly on the vertical columns and crossbeams, thus being visible to users and detracting from the veranda's aesthetics. DISCLOSURE OF REGISTRATION

[0004] The present utility model addresses the problem of the relatively limited range of uses offered by existing garden sheds. To this end, a garden shed with a veranda is provided, in which a veranda is additionally provided on one side of the building to meet the diverse needs of users.

[0005] According to the present utility model, the problem is solved by the following technical solution: A garden shed with a veranda comprises a house body and a veranda connected to a side surface of the house body, the veranda comprising a veranda roof frame and vertical columns, the veranda roof frame comprising an upper frame and four crossbeams enclosing the perimeter of the upper frame, the ends of two adjacent crossbeams being connected to each other by a connecting element, the connecting element being concealed within the two crossbeams and fixed by fasteners, the upper end of each vertical column being provided with a mounting groove, one end of the veranda roof frame being connected to the house body, while corners of the other end being inserted into the respective mounting grooves, and an end of the veranda roof frame located close to the house body being firmly connected to a support column of the house body by means of fasteners passing through a connecting element.and wherein, at an end of the veranda roof frame located near the vertical columns, the joint of each pair of adjacent crossbeams is concealed in the respective mounting groove.

[0006] The present invention is characterized by the following advantageous effects: In the present utility model, the ends of two adjacent crossbeams are connected by a connecting element concealed within the two crossbeams. The entire connecting element is hidden, so that no exposed connecting part detracts from the visual appearance at the corners of the crossbeam ends. This results in a smoother-looking outer surface of the crossbeams and gives the veranda roof frame a visually smoother, slimmer appearance with flowing lines, significantly improving the overall aesthetics of the garden shed. Furthermore, the connecting element is inserted into both crossbeams simultaneously, thus providing a positioning function for the crossbeams. This allows for quick positioning of the two crossbeams, making assembly easier and faster, and can considerably increase the assembly efficiency of the veranda.Furthermore, the joint between the two adjacent crossbeams at one end of the veranda roof frame is concealed within its respective mounting groove, resulting in a more seamless integration of the frame with the single vertical column. This contributes to a higher-quality veranda and enhances its design, further improving its aesthetic appeal. Additionally, the corner at one end of each crossbeam is recessed into its mounting groove, allowing the vertical columns to position the crossbeams. This simplifies and speeds up the assembly process, thereby increasing the overall efficiency of the veranda construction.Simultaneously, the crossbeams are connected to the vertical posts by aligning the corners with their respective mounting grooves and positioning them accordingly. This distributes the forces acting on the vertical posts of the veranda roof frame. This provides the vertical posts with more stable support for the veranda roof frame and effectively prevents wobbling or tipping of the frame due to lateral forces, thus increasing its overall stability. Furthermore, connecting one end of the veranda roof frame to the house structure can reduce the number of vertical posts required, decrease their size and footprint, and ultimately save on veranda construction costs.At the same time, using the veranda roof frame to support the shed increases its stability, reduces the likelihood of wobbling, minimizes the risk of structural damage from uneven forces, and extends the shed's lifespan. Positioning the veranda roof frame to the side of the shed can also enlarge the shed's usable space, creating a spacious, practical, and multifunctional outdoor area to meet people's diverse needs for relaxation, enjoying the scenery, gardening, and more. This enhances the garden's versatility and comfort, expands the shed's functionality, and fulfills a wide range of user requirements.

[0007] Preferably, each crossbeam is provided with an axially extending through-hole and a cable channel, the respective connecting element projecting into the through-hole, the cable channel being located above the through-hole, and the individual crossbeam further comprising a cover plate for covering the upper opening of the cable channel. Using the above technical solution, the cable channel can provide a dedicated routing space for the veranda's cable conduits, allowing the conduits to be neatly distributed along the veranda roof frame. This prevents chaotic tangling of the conduits, facilitates subsequent cable routing and maintenance, makes the arrangement of the entire veranda's electrical system clearer and more efficient, and increases the efficiency of cable installation.Furthermore, the cables are laid in a cable duct and covered with a cover plate, thus concealing them. Since there are no exposed cables on the exterior of the veranda roof frame, the overall appearance of the veranda is more aesthetically pleasing and spacious, enhancing its visual appeal. At the same time, the concealed cables are protected from damage caused by collisions with foreign objects, crushing, or animal bites. This also prevents the insulation from aging and becoming brittle due to sunlight, rain, or UV radiation, thereby reducing the risk of cable damage, ensuring the safe operation of the electrical system, minimizing the occurrence of electric shocks, and contributing to the overall safety of the electrical system.Covering the cable duct with the cover plate can also reduce the ingress of rainwater into the cable duct, in order to decrease the accumulation of rainwater in the cable duct and reduce the effects of standing water on the cable lines.

[0008] Preferably, the cable duct is provided with a locking groove, and the underside of the cover plate has a locking element that engages with the locking groove. By employing the above technical solution, the locking connection between the locking groove and the locking element improves the connection stability between the individual crossbeam and the respective cover plate. This reduces the likelihood of the cover plate loosening or detaching due to external influences such as wind or vibrations, thus providing continuous and reliable protection for the cables within the cable duct. Furthermore, the use of the locking mechanism eliminates the need for fasteners such as screws, making the installation and removal of the cover plate and cable duct more convenient and faster, thereby increasing efficiency in cable maintenance.

[0009] Preferably, a separating plate running parallel to the channel wall is provided in the cable duct, with the separating plate forming a locking groove together with one of the channel walls. Using the above technical solution, the separating plate can divide the cable duct into two channels, thus fulfilling the requirements for the classified separation of different cable runs. This allows for neater and more organized cable routing and facilitates subsequent maintenance work. Furthermore, the separating plate can also provide support for the cover plate, thereby reducing the risk of deformation and damage to the cover plate and contributing to increased compressive strength of the cover plate.

[0010] Preferably, the individual connecting element comprises two mutually perpendicular plug ends, each plug end comprising a side plate, a top plate, and a bottom plate arranged on the top and bottom of the side plate, respectively. In the case of one and the same connecting element, some of the fastening elements are rigidly connected to the top plate from the bottom of the cable duct, some of the fastening elements are rigidly connected to the bottom plate from the bottom of the crossbeam, and some of the fastening elements extend through the side plate and are rigidly connected to the respective vertical column or support column. By applying the above technical solution, some of the fastening elements are rigidly connected to the top plate of the connecting element from the bottom of the cable duct, and this portion of the fastening elements can be concealed within the cable duct.Another set of fasteners is securely attached to the base plate of the connector from the underside of the crossbeam. Since the corners at one end of the veranda roof frame are recessed into the mounting grooves of the vertical posts, the fasteners on the underside of the crossbeam can be concealed within the mounting groove of the respective vertical post. This effectively reduces the number of exposed fasteners, resulting in a smoother appearance on the outer surface of each crossbeam and a visually more streamlined and slender look for the veranda roof frame with flowing lines, thus significantly improving the overall aesthetics of the garden shed.

[0011] Preferably, each crossbeam is provided with a support plate on its side facing the upper frame, which supports the upper frame. A drainage channel is formed between the support plate and a side wall of the crossbeam facing the upper frame, forming a drainage bore at the mounting groove of the respective vertical column. A drainage channel connected to the drainage bore is provided in the vertical column. Using the above technical solution, the support plate can not only form a drainage channel but also support the upper frame, thereby creating reliable support for the assembly of the upper frame and facilitating its assembly.Furthermore, the drainage channel effectively diverts rainwater by directing it along the veranda roof frame from the drainage hole into the drainage channel. This reduces the accumulation of rainwater on the crossbeams, minimizing problems such as seepage and corrosion caused by standing water and extending the veranda's lifespan. Because the drainage channel is integrated within each vertical column, there's no need for separate drainage pipes. This ensures proper drainage without requiring additional space inside or outside the veranda, enhancing its overall aesthetic and integration.

[0012] Preferably, the building body further comprises a roof slab, and the garden shed further comprises at least four eaves beams that enclose the roof slab and the veranda roof frame, wherein each eaves beam is provided on its side facing the building body with a gutter located at the rear of the building body, with one end of the roof slab extending to above the gutter, and wherein a gap exists between the individual eaves beam and the veranda roof frame, and the eaves beam is connected to the veranda roof frame via a connecting rod. By employing the above technical solution, the enclosure by the eaves beams can improve the overall aesthetics of the uppermost area of ​​the garden shed.This gives the upper part of the garden shed more flowing and regular lines, reduces the feeling of disharmony in the joining of the house body with the veranda and ensures a more harmonious and uniform appearance of the house body and the veranda, which contributes to increasing the aesthetics of the garden shed.

[0013] Preferably, the connection between the roof slab and the veranda roof frame is covered by a flow-guiding plate, with both ends of the flow-guiding plate being connected to the eaves beam at the front and rear of the building, respectively. Using this technical solution, the flow-guiding plate can quickly direct rainwater to the building and the veranda, thus accelerating the distribution of the rainwater. This allows rainwater to be rapidly channeled into the gutter and drainage channel, thereby reducing the accumulation of rainwater on the roof.

An average person skilled in the art in this field can use the facts as a basis to determine the intended meaning of the aforementioned terms according to the present utility model. First example:

[0020] As in Fig. Figures 1 to 11 illustrate the present embodiment of a garden shed with a veranda. It comprises a building body 1 and a veranda 2. The building body 1 includes a roof panel 12, four walls 11, and four support columns 13. Both ends of each wall 11 are rigidly connected to a support column 13, so that the four walls 11 form a rectangular structure. The roof panel 12 is attached to the upper ends of the walls 11 and serves as the roof of the building body 1. The veranda 2 is connected to one of the walls 11 on a side face of the building body 1. The veranda 2 includes a veranda roof frame 21 and vertical columns 22. The veranda roof frame 21 is designed as a frame-like structure and includes an upper frame 211 and four crossbeams 212 enclosing the perimeter of the upper frame 211. The ends of two adjacent crossbeams 212 are connected to each other by a connecting element 23.After joining, the ends of the two adjacent crossbeams 212 form a right-angled structure to create the frame. The connecting element 23 is concealed within each of the two crossbeams 212 and secured by fasteners 4. The upper end of each vertical column 22 is provided with a mounting groove 221. One end of the veranda roof frame 21 is connected to the house body 1, while corners of the other end are inserted into the respective mounting grooves 221. An end of the veranda roof frame 21 located near the house body 1 is firmly connected to the respective support column 13 of the house body 1 by means of fasteners 4 that pass through the connecting element 23. The joint of each pair of adjacent crossbeams 212 at an end of the veranda roof frame 21 located near the vertical columns 22 is concealed in the respective mounting groove 221.

[0021] In the present embodiment, the ends of two adjacent crossbeams 212 are connected by a connecting element 23, which is concealed within the two crossbeams 212. The entire connecting element 23 is concealed, so that no exposed connecting part detracts from the visual appearance at the corner areas of the ends of the crossbeams 212. This results in a smoother-looking outer surface of the crossbeams 212 and gives the veranda roof frame 21 a visually smoother, slimmer appearance with flowing lines, thus significantly improving the overall aesthetics of the garden shed. Furthermore, the connecting element 23 is inserted into two crossbeams 212 simultaneously, thereby providing a positioning function for the crossbeams 212.This allows for quick positioning of the two crossbeams 212, makes their assembly easier and faster, and can significantly increase the assembly efficiency of the veranda 2. Furthermore, the joint between the two adjacent crossbeams 212 at one end of the veranda roof frame 21 is concealed in the respective mounting groove 221, resulting in a more cohesive assembly of the veranda roof frame 21 with the single vertical column 22. This contributes to a higher-quality design and enhances the overall aesthetics of the veranda 2.Furthermore, the corner at one end of each crossbeam 212 is recessed in the respective mounting groove 221, allowing the vertical columns 22 to exert a positioning effect on the crossbeams 212. This simplifies and speeds up the assembly of the crossbeams 212 with the vertical columns 22, thus increasing the efficiency of the veranda 2 assembly. Simultaneously, the connection between the crossbeams 212 and the vertical columns 22 is achieved by the alignment of the corners with the respective mounting grooves 221 and their positioning. This distributes the forces of the veranda roof frame 21 acting on the vertical columns 22. This enables the vertical columns 22 to provide more stable support for the veranda roof frame 21 and effectively prevents wobbling or tipping of the veranda roof frame 21 due to lateral forces, thereby increasing the stability of the veranda roof frame 21.Furthermore, connecting one end of the veranda roof frame 21 to the house body 1 can reduce the number of vertical columns 22 required, decrease their size and footprint, and save on manufacturing costs for the veranda 2. At the same time, using the house body 1 to support the veranda roof frame 21 increases its stability, reduces the likelihood of wobbling, minimizes the risk of structural damage from uneven forces, and extends the lifespan of the garden shed. Positioning the veranda roof frame 21 to the side of the house body 1 can also enlarge the usable space of the garden shed, creating a spacious, practical, and multifunctional outdoor area to meet the diverse needs of people for relaxation, enjoying the landscape, gardening, and so on.This increases the range of uses and comfort of the garden, expands the functionality of the garden shed and meets the diverse needs of people.

[0022] Specifically, as in Fig. As shown in Figures 2 to 4, in the present embodiment the four crossbeams 212 of the veranda roof frame 21 are divided into two short beams and two long beams. One of the short beams is rigidly connected to a wall 11, while the two ends of the other short beam are rigidly connected to two vertical columns 22. The two long beams are connected between the two short beams by means of connecting elements 23. Each connecting element 23 comprises two mutually perpendicular plug ends. A through-hole 2124 is provided in each crossbeam 212, into which the respective plug end is inserted. The individual plug end comprises a side plate 231, a top plate 232, and a bottom plate 233, which are arranged on the upper and lower surfaces of the side plate 231, respectively.After the individual plug end is inserted into the respective through-hole 2124, the side plate 231 remains in contact with the side wall of the through-hole 2124, the top plate 232 remains in contact with the upper wall of the through-hole 2124, and the bottom plate 233 remains in contact with the lower wall of the through-hole 2124. Several fastening elements 4 are mounted in one and the same connecting element 23. Some of the fastening elements 4 are firmly connected to the top plate 232 from the bottom of the cable duct 2125, some of the fastening elements 4 are firmly connected to the bottom plate 233 from the underside of the crossbeam 212, and some of the fastening elements 4 pass through the side plate 231 and are firmly connected to the respective vertical column 22 or the respective support column 13. The plug ends exert a supporting effect on the crossbeams 212, which contributes to increasing the strength of the crossbeams 212.Furthermore, the plug ends remain in contact with the inner wall of the through-hole 2124. After being fixed by the fasteners 4, the connection stability between the individual connecting element 23 and the respective crossbeam 212 can be improved and the probability of the connecting element 23 wobbling reduced, thereby making the overall structure of the veranda roof frame 21 more stable and reliable.

[0023] It should be explained that in the present embodiment, the upper frame 211 of the veranda roof frame 21 is a louvered ceiling. The louvered ceiling comprises several transverse panels, the longitudinal direction of all transverse panels being parallel to the longitudinal direction of the short beams. The two ends of the transverse panels are rotatably connected to the two long beams. One side of each transverse panel is provided with a water channel that remains connected to the drainage channel 2123 of the crossbeam 212. The other side of the transverse panel is provided with an extension edge. The louvered ceiling has an open state and a closed state. When the louvered ceiling is in the open state, all transverse panels are inclined. In this state, the water channel of each transverse panel is lower than the extension edge of the transverse panel.A larger gap exists between two adjacent transverse panels, allowing sunlight and wind to penetrate the louvered ceiling and enter the veranda. Besides providing some shading, the louvered ceiling also offers improved light transmission and ventilation. When the louvered ceiling is closed, all transverse panels are horizontally aligned. The extended edge of one transverse panel reaches above the drainage channel of another, thus connecting two adjacent transverse panels. The gap between two adjacent transverse panels is concealed by this extended edge. Some of the water on the upper surface of one transverse panel flows into its drainage channel, while some flows over the extended edge of that panel into the drainage channel of the other.The water in all water channels flows along the longitudinal direction of the transverse plates to the drainage channel 2123 of the respective crossbeam 212 and is finally discharged via the drainage channel 222 of the respective vertical column 22. In this state, the louvered ceiling can form a relatively closed ceiling, providing protection from wind and rain and creating a space for users to engage in activities on rainy days. It is understood that in other embodiments, the upper frame 211 can also be a completely closed ceiling, providing the veranda 2 with a rain-protected space and creating a space for users to engage in activities on rainy days.

[0024] Specifically, it is planned that, as in Fig.Figure 8 shows that in the present embodiment, the individual crossbeam 212 is provided with an axially extending through-hole 2124 and a cable duct 2125, wherein the cable duct 2125 is located above the through-hole 2124 and the individual crossbeam 212 further comprises a cover plate 2121 for covering the upper opening of the cable duct 2125. The cable duct 2125 can provide a dedicated routing space for the veranda 2's cable lines, allowing the cable lines to be neatly distributed along the veranda roof frame 21. This avoids chaotic tangling of the cable lines, facilitates subsequent cable routing and maintenance, makes the arrangement of the entire veranda 2's electrical system clearer and more efficient, and increases the efficiency of cable installation.Furthermore, the cables are laid in the cable duct 2125 and covered with a cover plate 2121, thus concealing them within the duct. Since there are no exposed cables on the exterior of the veranda roof frame 21, the overall appearance of the veranda 2 is more aesthetically pleasing and spacious, enhancing its visual appeal. At the same time, the concealed cables are protected from damage caused by collisions with foreign objects, crushing, or animal bites. This also prevents the insulation of the cables from aging and becoming brittle due to sunlight, rain, or UV radiation, thereby reducing the risk of cable damage, ensuring the safe operation of the electrical system, minimizing the occurrence of electric shocks, and contributing to the overall safety of the electrical system.Furthermore, by covering the cable duct 2125 with the cover plate 2121, the ingress of rainwater into the cable duct 2125 can be reduced in order to decrease the accumulation of rainwater in the cable duct 2125 and to lower the effects of standing water on the cable lines.

[0025] Specifically, in the present embodiment, a separating plate 2126 running parallel to the channel wall is provided in the cable duct 2125. The separating plate 2126, together with one of the channel walls of the cable duct 2125, forms a locking groove 2128. The underside of the cover plate 2121 has a locking element 2127 that engages with the locking groove 2128. During the assembly process, the locking element 2127 of the cover plate 2121 is aligned with the locking groove 2128. The cover plate 2121 is then pressed downwards so that the locking element 2127 and the locking groove 2128 engage with each other. This establishes the connection between the cover plate 2121 and the cable duct 2125, while the cover plate 2121 simultaneously covers the upper end of the cable duct 2125. The separating plate 2126 can divide the cable duct 2125 into two channels, thus meeting the requirements for a classified separation of different cable lines.This allows for neater and more organized cable routing and facilitates subsequent maintenance. Furthermore, the separating plate 2126 can also provide support for the cover plate 2121, thereby reducing the risk of deformation and damage to the cover plate 2121 and contributing to increased compressive strength. In addition, the snap-fit ​​connection of the locking groove 2128 with the locking element 2127 improves the connection stability between the individual crossbeam 212 and the respective cover plate 2121. This reduces the likelihood of the cover plate 2121 loosening or detaching due to external influences such as wind or vibrations, thus providing continuous and reliable protection for the cables in the cable duct 2125.Furthermore, the use of the snap-fit ​​structure eliminates the need for fasteners 4 such as screws, making the assembly and disassembly of the cover plate 2121 and the cable duct 2125 more convenient and faster, thus increasing efficiency in cable repair.

[0026] In the present embodiment, the length of the short beams beneath the four crossbeams 212 corresponds to the width of the side surface of the house body 1. During assembly, one side of one of the short beams is brought into contact with the outer surface of the upper end of a wall 11, with one end of the short beam in contact with the support column 13. The connecting element 23 is inserted into the through-hole 2124 of the short beam. Fastening elements 4 are then inserted from the side of the short beam facing away from the wall 11 through the side plate 231 of the connecting element 23 and then firmly connected to the support column 13. The support column 13 of the house body 1 has greater strength and stability than the wall 11.The connection of the individual crossbeam 212 to the respective support column 13 can therefore increase the connection stability between the crossbeam 212 and the house body 1 and reduce the probability of the crossbeam 212 detaching from the house body 1, thus providing stable and reliable support for the veranda 2. With the same connecting element, part of the fasteners 4 are firmly connected to the top plate 232 from the bottom of the cable duct 2125, and this part of the fasteners 4 can be concealed within the cable duct 2125. Another part of the fasteners 4 is firmly connected to the base plate 233 of the connecting element 23 from the underside of the crossbeam 212. Since the corners at one end of the veranda roof frame 21 are recessed in the mounting grooves 221, the fasteners 4 on the underside of the crossbeam 212 can be concealed in the mounting groove 221 of the respective vertical column 22.This effectively reduces the number of exposed fasteners 4, resulting in a smoother outer surface for each crossbeam 212 and a smoother and slimmer appearance for the veranda roof frame 21 with flowing lines, thus significantly improving the overall aesthetics of the garden shed.

[0027] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the individual crossbeam 212 is provided on its side facing the upper frame 211 with a support plate 2122, which supports the upper frame 211. A drainage channel 2123 is formed between the support plate 2122 and a side wall of the crossbeam 212 facing the upper frame 211. This drainage channel 2123 forms a drainage bore 2129 in the mounting groove 221 of the respective vertical column 22. A drainage channel 222, connected to the drainage bore 2129, is provided in the vertical column 22. After the ends of the crossbeams 212 are embedded in the respective mounting grooves 221, the upper ends of the vertical columns 22 and the upper ends of the crossbeams 212 are flush. The joint of the two crossbeams 212 is located within the mounting groove 221.Therefore, the corners of the veranda roof frame 21 are concealed by the vertical columns 22 in the viewer's field of vision, resulting in a more cohesive appearance for the joint between the veranda roof frame 21 and the vertical columns 22. The support plate 2122 not only forms the drainage channel 2123 but also supports the upper frame 211, thus providing reliable support for its assembly and facilitating its installation. Furthermore, the drainage channel 2123 effectively drains rainwater by directing it along the veranda roof frame 21 from the drainage hole 2129 into the drainage channel 222. This reduces the accumulation of rainwater on the crossbeams 212, mitigating problems such as seepage and corrosion caused by standing water and contributing to the extended service life of the veranda 2.Since the drainage channel 222 is arranged in the respective vertical column 22, the installation of separate drainage pipes can be dispensed with. This ensures the drainage function without requiring additional space inside or outside the veranda 2 and contributes to increasing the refinement and level of integration of the veranda 2.

[0028] Regarding the connection of the individual crossbeam 212 to the respective vertical column 22, in the present embodiment, the crossbeam 212 is embedded in the mounting groove 221 of the vertical column 22 after its assembly is complete. A connecting plate is attached to the upper end of the vertical column 22, to which several screws are mounted. Some of the screws are connected to threaded holes at the upper end of the vertical column 22, while the other screws pass through the cover plate 2121 and are connected to the top plate 232 of the connecting element 23.

[0029] In this exemplary embodiment, the garden shed further comprises at least four eaves beams 3. The four eaves beams 3 are arranged around the outer perimeter of the roof panel 12 and the veranda roof frame 21, with a gap between each eaves beam 3 and the respective walls 11 or the veranda roof frame 21. The eaves beams 3 are connected to the walls 11 and the crossbeams 212 via connecting rods. Each eaves beam 3 is provided with a gutter 32 on its side facing the building body 1, which is located at the rear of the building body 1. The roof panel 12 slopes gradually downwards from the front of the building body 1 to its rear, with the lower end of the roof panel 12 extending above the gutter 32, thus directing rainwater from the roof panel 12 to the gutter 32.A gap exists between the eaves beams 3 and the veranda roof frame 21, and the eaves beams are connected to the veranda roof frame 21 via connecting rods. The joint between the roof panels 12 and the veranda roof frame 21 is covered by a flow guide plate 31, both ends of which are connected to the eaves beam 3 at the front and rear of the house body 1, respectively. The enclosing of the eaves beams 3 can improve the overall aesthetics of the uppermost section of the garden shed. This gives the uppermost section of the garden shed smoother and more regular lines, reduces the perceived disharmony of the joint between the house body 1 and the veranda 2, and ensures a more harmonious and unified appearance for both, thus enhancing the aesthetics of the garden shed.The flow guide plate 31 can quickly direct rainwater to the house body 1 and the veranda 2, thus accelerating the distribution of the rainwater. This allows rainwater to be rapidly directed into the roof gutter 32 and the drainage channel 2123, thereby reducing the accumulation of rainwater on the roof.
