Description

[0001] The invention relates to a canopy for house entrances of buildings with a roof structure and with a support structure for attaching the roof structure to a wall of the building, wherein the support structure has a number of elongated support elements and a number of wall brackets that can be attached to the wall, wherein the wall brackets are firmly connected to the respective associated elongated support elements.

[0002] From EP 3 208 403 B1, a canopy is known that has a claw-like support structure and a roof panel. The claw-like support structure comprises two legs between which one end of the roof panel is clamped. A lower leg of the claw-like support structure includes a bore through which a locking screw can be inserted into the threads of the roof panel. The claw-like support structure is firmly connected to a wall of the building by means of a mounting flange and a screw connection. A disadvantage of the known canopy is that the claw-like support structure must be designed to absorb shear, tensile, and compressive forces from the roof panel.

[0003] From DE 20 2008 013 886 U1, a canopy is known that comprises a flat roof structure and a support structure, wherein the flat roof structure is attached to the support structure via a bearing. In order to absorb mechanical loads on the roof slab, the bearing, which is rigidly connected to the roof slab, is coupled to the support structure via a hinge. The support structure comprises a number of sword-shaped support elements, each of which is rigidly connected to the wall of the housing via a wall bracket. A disadvantage of the known canopy is that the mechanical support of the roof slab is relatively complex. The hinge only allows for limited restriction of the force transmission from the roof slab to the support structure.

[0004] The object of the present invention is therefore to further develop a canopy in such a way that the force stress on a supporting device for the canopy is limited, so that relatively large cantilevered canopies can be mounted in a simple manner.

[0005] To solve this problem, the invention, in conjunction with the preamble of claim 1, is characterized in that the roof device has a frame profile which, in a mounting position, is arranged resting on the elongated support elements arranged at a distance from each other, and that the roof device has a flat roof element which is held on the frame profile.

[0006] The particular advantage of the invention lies in the creation of a self-supporting canopy in which force decoupling occurs between a supporting structure on the one hand and a flat roof structure on the other. The roof structure comprises a frame profile and a flat roof element connected to it, with the frame profile essentially resting only on the supporting structure. There is no rigid connection between the frame profile and the majority of the elongated support elements forming the supporting structure, which project from a building wall. Advantageously, the roof structure can thus be supported with relatively little stress. The elongated support elements only need to be designed to bear the weight of the roof structure. Tensile or compressive forces due to temperature fluctuations of the roof structure do not need to be absorbed by the supporting structure.

[0007] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the frame profile, and thus the entire roof assembly, rests on the elongated support elements with its own weight. Positioning means may be provided to prevent relative displacement between the frame profile on one side and the support elements on the other. For example, recesses in a profile element near the wall and a profile element farther from the wall can be used to position the frame profile relative to the support elements in the installation position.

[0008] According to a further development of the invention, the frame profile is formed as a closed system with a profile element close to the wall and a profile element further away from the wall running parallel to it, as well as connecting cross-profile elements. The clear distance between the profile element close to the wall and the profile element further away from the wall is less than the length of the elongated support elements, so that the frame profile rests on the support elements at two support points per support element. Since the support structure has at least two support elements arranged at a distance from each other, the frame profile rests on the support structure at at least four support points.

[0009] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the frame profile has recesses on the wall side that are matched to the width of the elongated support elements, so that the frame profile can be easily slid horizontally onto the elongated support elements during assembly, since the elongated support elements are arranged in a common horizontal plane. Similar to a forklift, the elongated support elements engage with the wall-side profile element of the frame profile until a free end of each elongated support element reaches the profile element furthest from the wall and supports it. In this assembly position, the two ends of the elongated support elements serve as bearings for the frame profile.

[0010] According to a further development of the invention, a guide rail is provided above the recesses of the profile element closest to the wall and the profile element furthest from the wall, i.e., between an upper wall of the profile element closest to the wall and an upper wall of the profile element furthest from the wall. This guide rail serves as a guide when the frame profile is slid onto the elongated support rails. This simplifies the assembly of the frame profile onto the elongated support elements, which are preferably designed as load-bearing slats.

[0011] According to a further development of the invention, a flat roof element of the roof structure is clamped to the frame profile. Advantageously, the roof element only needs to be placed onto the frame profile.

[0012] According to a further development of the invention, the frame profile is secured against displacement from the mounting position in a horizontal direction transverse to the wall-adjacent profile element and / or in a horizontal direction in the longitudinal direction of the wall-adjacent profile element by means of a positioning means connecting the wall-adjacent profile element to the wall bracket.

[0013] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the positioning means is designed as a screw connection with a threaded rod projecting from the wall bracket, which extends through a wall of the profile element closest to the wall. A clamping strip is positioned against the inside of the wall of the profile element closest to the wall and pressed flat against the inside of the wall by means of a tightening nut. Advantageously, after sliding the profile frame onto the support device, it can be easily and securely positioned in the installation position.

[0014] In a further development of the invention, the underside of the frame profile is concealed by a fascia surface, so that the elongated support elements are not visible from below in the assembled position. The opening of the frame profile is thus closed at the top by the roof surface and at the bottom by the fascia surface.

[0015] According to a further development of the invention, a free end of each elongated support element is arranged at a distance from a vertical wall of the profile element furthest from the wall. The elongated support element is also spaced from the lower walls of both the profile elements closest to and furthest from the wall, so that only the weight of the frame profile is transferred to the support elements. Tensile or compressive forces acting on the frame profile depending on weather conditions are not transferred. The frame profile thus rests on the support structure without stress.

[0016] According to a further development of the invention, the frame profile has a U-shaped channel profile on its upper surface, with a channel for draining water from the roof surface. The flat roof element is preferably held on the inner legs of this U-shaped channel. The upper wall of the profile elements thus serves not only to provide support points for the elongated support elements, but also as a channel for water drainage.

[0017] Further advantages of the invention will become apparent from the further dependent claims.

[0018] An embodiment of the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0019] They show: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a partially cut-away canopy, where, for the sake of simplicity, some of the supporting elements firmly connected to a building wall are only partially inserted into the frame profile; Figure 2 is a perspective view of the canopy in a mounted position of the profile frame, where, for the sake of simplicity, the profile frame is shown partially cut away; Figure 3 is a longitudinal section through the mounted canopy; Figure 4 is a top view of the mounted canopy; Figure 5 is a cross-section through the mounted canopy; Figure 6 is a cross-section of the canopy when attached to a masonry wall of the building; Figure 7 is a cross-section of the canopy when attached to a masonry wall of the building connected to an external thermal insulation composite system; Figure 8 is a cross-section of the canopy when attached to a masonry wall with a thermally insulated heavy-duty bracket.Figure 9 is a perspective view of the partially cut-away canopy with a position locking mechanism for the frame profile, the threaded rods being omitted, and Figure 10 is a cross-section through the wall-adjacent profile element in the installed position, wherein in an upper area of ​​the wall-adjacent profile element, a screw connection to a wall bracket is provided for securing the position of the frame profile using the threaded rod.

[0020] A canopy according to the invention is cantilevered and attached to a wall 1, for example, of a building entrance. The canopy projects essentially horizontally from this upright wall 1.

[0021] The canopy essentially consists of a support structure 2 and a roof structure 3, the roof structure 3 comprising a flat roof element 4. The support structure 2 serves to attach the roof structure 3 to the wall 1.

[0022] The support structure 2 has a plurality of elongated support elements 5 and a plurality of wall brackets 6 assigned to the elongated support elements 5, wherein the support elements 5 are each attached to the wall 1 via the wall brackets 6.

[0023] In the present embodiment, the elongated support elements 5 are each integrally connected to the wall brackets 6 and consist of a metal material, preferably a steel material.

[0024] The wall bracket 6 is designed as a rectangular plate with holes so that it can be attached to the wall 1, preferably by screwing, using fasteners 7, in particular screws.

[0025] In the assembled position, the elongated support elements 5 are arranged at a distance a from each other. The greater the expected snow load or the required load-bearing capacity of the canopy, the greater the number of elongated support elements 5 or the shorter the distance a between adjacent elongated support elements 5.

[0026] The roof assembly 3 comprises, in addition to the flat roof element 4, a frame profile 8. In a first step, the frame profile 8 is placed on the free ends 17 of the respective elongated support elements 5 and slid along them until it reaches a final position where it rests against the support element 5 at two points. For example, the flat roof element 4 can be placed onto the frame profile 8 after the frame profile 8 has reached its final position on the support elements 5. Alternatively, the flat roof element 4 can be connected to the frame profile 8 before the frame profile 8 is mounted on the support assembly 2, so that it is slid onto the sword-shaped, elongated support elements 5 together with the frame profile 8. Once the frame profile 8 has reached its final position on the support elements 5, it is now in its assembly position.

[0027] The frame profile 8 is frame-shaped and consists of a profile element 10 close to the wall, a profile element 11 running parallel to it away from the wall, and transverse profile elements 12 connecting their ends and arranged opposite each other. The profile elements 10, 11, 12 are essentially identical in cross-section, with only the profile element 10 close to the wall and the profile element 11 away from the wall having recesses 18, 18' on their mutually facing sides for the passage of the elongated support elements 5.

[0028] The profile elements 10, 11, 12 each have an upper section 33 and a lower section 34, which are integrally connected. The lower section 34 of the profile elements 10, 11, 12 has a closed cross-section and / or a rectangular cross-section and / or a square cross-section. The lower section 34 of the profile element 10 closest to the wall and of the profile element 11 furthest from the wall serves to support the frame profile 8 on the elongated support elements 5.

[0029] The upper area 33 of the profile elements 10, 11, 12 serves to accommodate the flat roof element 4 and to form a gutter for draining the water flowing off the flat roof element 4.

[0030] The lower section 34 of the profile elements 10, 11, 12 each has an upper wall 13, 13', 13", a lower wall 14, 14', 14" running parallel to the same, as well as an outer upright wall 15, 15', 15" and an inner upright wall 16, 16', 16".

[0031] The profile elements 10, 11, 12 have the same cross-section, except that the profile element 10 closest to the wall and the profile element 11 furthest from the wall have a recess 18, 18' on a mutually facing side, namely on the inner upright wall 16', 16", for the passage of the elongated support element 5 through the profile element 10 closest to the wall and for partial passage, namely only entry into the profile element 11 furthest from the wall. For example, the recesses 18, 18' of the profile element 10 closest to the wall and of the profile element 11 furthest from the wall are produced by milling.

[0032] For example, from Figure 5As can be seen, the clear distance c between the wall-adjacent profile element 10 and the wall-distant profile element 11 of the frame profile 8 is less than the length d of the elongated support element 5. The distance c is the distance between the inner vertical wall 16' of the wall-adjacent profile element 10 and the inner vertical wall 16" of the wall-distant profile element 11. In this way, it is ensured that the frame profile 8 rests on the support elements 5 at two support points or support areas per support element 5 with the upper wall 13', 13" of the wall-adjacent profile element 10 and the wall-distant profile element 11, respectively.

[0033] The number of recesses 18, 18' of the wall-adjacent profile element 10 and the wall-distant profile element 11 corresponds to the number of provided support elements 5. The recesses 18, 18' are preferably of the same dimensions and each has a width adapted to a width b of the elongated support element 5, so that the frame profile 8 is held on the elongated support elements 5 with minimal or no play in the horizontal direction. The frame profile 5 is thus held on the preferably sword-shaped support elements 5 in a quasi-drawer-like manner.

[0034] In the present embodiment, the elongated support element 5 is sword-shaped with opposing flat sides 20 and opposing narrow sides 21 connecting the flat sides 20. In the assembly position, the sword-shaped support elements 5 are arranged upright, so that the flat sides 20 extend in a vertical plane and the narrow sides 21 extend in a horizontal plane.

[0035] To facilitate the sliding or placement of the frame profile 8 onto the support structure 2, a guide rail 25 is provided between the upper wall 13' of the profile element 10 closest to the wall and the upper wall 13" of the profile element 11 furthest from the wall, in the area of ​​the recesses 18, 18', respectively. This guide rail extends continuously between the upper walls 13', 13" and has mounting flanges 26 at each end. These flanges are attached to the upper walls 13', 13" of the profile elements 10, 11 and / or to the inner vertical walls 16', 16" of the profile element 10 closest to the wall and the profile element 11 furthest from the wall, respectively, preferably by screwing.

[0036] To mount the frame profile 8 to the wall 1, the upper wall 13' of the profile element 10 closest to the wall is placed onto the free end regions of the elongated support elements 5 and then moved towards the wall 1. This movement preferably occurs horizontally or at a slight incline, with the guide rails 25 resting on the respective elongated support elements 5. In the present embodiment, the guide rails 25 have a U-shaped cross-section, with an upper apex 22 of the guide rail 25 having a greater width than the support elements 5. The frame profile 8 is moved towards the wall 1 until the outer upright wall 15' of the profile element 10 closest to the wall abuts the wall 1 or a free end 17 of the elongated support element 5 enters the recess 18' of the profile element 11 furthest from the wall. As shown in the figure Figure 5As can be seen, the free end 17 of the elongated support element 5 has a distance e from the outer vertical wall 15" of the profile element 11 furthest from the wall. The support element 5 also has a distance from the lower walls 14', 14" of the profile element 10 closest to the wall and the profile element 11 furthest from the wall. There are only bearing points or connection points on the upper wall 13', 13" of the profile element 10 closest to the wall and the profile element 11 furthest from the wall, respectively. Thus, stress-free support of the roof structure 3 on the support structure 2 is ensured. The frame profile 8 is not rigidly connected to the support structure 2 or the elongated support elements 5, but merely rests on them. For positioning, the frame profile 8 can be connected to the wall 1 and / or to the wall bracket 6 via a sealing material (not shown). However, the sealing material cannot absorb any forces.

[0037] The distance a between adjacent elongated support elements 5 lies in a range between 500 mm and 1000 mm, preferably between 720 mm and 780 mm. In the present embodiment, the distance a is 750 mm. On the inside, the profile elements 10, 11, 12 are designed such that a cover surface 27, which closes the frame profile 8 downwards, can be attached. In the present embodiment, the cover surface 27 is connected to the profile elements 10, 11, 12 by a snap-fit ​​connection 9.

[0038] The upper walls 13, 13', 13" of the profile elements 10, 11, 12 form a vertex of the upper area 33 of the profile elements 10, 11, 12, which has a U-shaped cross-section. On the inside, an inner channel web 28 adjoins the upper wall 13, 13', 13" of the upper area 33, and on the outside, an outer channel web 29 adjoins it. The wall 13, 13', 13", the inner web 28 and the outer web 29 of the upper section 33 together form a channel for collecting the water flowing laterally from the flat roof element 4. The flat roof element 4 is hood-shaped, preferably with a sloping roof surface 30 and flat retaining surfaces 31 projecting from its edges, which, in the installed position, grip the inner channel webs 28. In this way, the flat roof element 4 is positively locked in the upper section 33 of the frame profile 8.Alternatively, the retaining surfaces 31 can also be bonded to the inner gutter webs 28, for example by adhesive bonding. In the present embodiment, the flat roof element 4 is simply placed on the upper area 33, with the retaining surface 31 bearing flat against the inner gutter web 28. For this purpose, the opposing retaining surfaces 31 of the roof element have a distance that corresponds to the inner distance between the opposing inner gutter webs 28. In this way, the roof element 4 is held against the inner gutter webs 28 with slight play or without play, or clamped in place.

[0039] The load-bearing elements 5, the support elements 22, and the wall brackets 6 are preferably made of a metal material, in particular steel. The frame profile 8 is also preferably made of a metal material, preferably aluminum, or of a plastic material.

[0040] According to an alternative embodiment of the invention (not shown), the frame profile 8 can also consist of two parts, so that the canopy can have a greater length between the opposing cross-profile elements 12. If the profile elements 10, 11, 12 are formed as an extruded profile made of a metal material, dividing the frame profile 8 into two parts would be advantageous from a length of 4 m.

[0041] As from Figure 6 As can be seen, the wall bracket 6 can be attached to the upright wall 1, which consists of masonry or concrete, by means of screws. Preferably, the wall 1 is provided with a mineral plaster layer 42. The upper region 33 of the frame profile 8 is U-shaped and forms a channel profile that extends circumferentially along the profile elements 10, 11, 12.

[0042] According to an alternative embodiment of the invention Figure 7Wall 1 not only has a masonry layer 41, but also a thermal insulation layer 43 extending between the masonry layer 41 and the mineral plaster layer 42. The wall bracket 6 is attached directly to the masonry layer 41 in a recess in the thermal insulation layer 43. A cold-stop layer 44 is preferably arranged between the masonry layer 41 and the thermal insulation layer 43. The thermal insulation layer 43 can consist of multiple layers of thermal insulation.

[0043] According to a further embodiment of the invention according Figure 8 A thermally insulated heavy-duty bracket 45 is arranged between the masonry 41 and the mineral plaster layer 42. This heavy-duty bracket 45 has at least one thermal insulation layer 43 and a steel plate 46 embedded in this thermal insulation layer 43, to which the screw 7 of the wall bracket 6 engages and is screwed.

[0044] According to an alternative embodiment of the invention according to the Figures 9 and 10 The canopy has, as an alternative or in addition to the positioning means 18, 18' for securing against lateral displacement of the frame profile 8 along the wall, 1 further positioning means for securing against displacement of the frame profile 8 in the transverse direction to the profile element 10 near the wall and the profile element 11 far from the wall or perpendicular to the wall 1.

[0045] The width of the recesses 18, 18' of the wall-adjacent profile element 10 and the wall-distant profile element 11, respectively, is adapted to the width b of the elongated support elements 5, thus preventing lateral displacement of the profile frame 8 in the longitudinal direction of the wall-adjacent profile element 10 or the wall-distant profile element 11, or in the horizontal direction along the wall 1. The recesses 18, 18' are dimensioned such that the elongated support element 5 is preferably held with slight play in the horizontal direction along the wall 1.

[0046] To prevent the profile frame 8 from shifting horizontally, perpendicular to the wall-adjacent profile element 10 and the wall-distant profile element 11, a screw connection is provided between the wall-adjacent profile element 10 and the wall bracket 6 as a positioning means. The screw connection comprises a threaded rod 50, one end of which engages a threaded bore 54 in the wall bracket 6. The length of the threaded rod 50 is greater than the thickness of the outer channel web 29 of the wall-adjacent profile element 10. The length of the threaded rod 50 is such that a clamping strip 51 and a locking nut 52 can be attached to the opposite end of the threaded rod 40. The outer channel web 29 has a bore 49 to allow the threaded rod 50 to pass through it.

[0047] The clamping strip 51 is long enough to extend from one end of the elongated, wall-adjacent profile element 10 to the other end. At a minimum, the clamping strip 51 is long enough to cover all wall brackets 6. The clamping strip 51 has a bore 53 for the passage of the threaded rod 50. The bore 53 of the clamping strip 51 can, for example, be designed as an elongated hole extending longitudinally along the wall-adjacent profile element 10. Similarly, the bore 49 of the channel web 29 can be designed as an elongated hole extending longitudinally along the wall-adjacent profile element 10. This allows for the compensation of manufacturing tolerances.

[0048] After the frame profile 8 has been moved into the mounting position and the threaded rod 50 has been engaged with the bore 54 of the wall bracket 6, the clamping strip 51 is placed onto the other end of the threaded rod 50, which protrudes from an inner side of the channel web 29, and tightened using the tightening nut 52. The profile frame 8 is now secured against horizontal displacement perpendicular to the profile element 10 near the wall. The clamping strip 51 is preferably made of a metal material.

[0049] The bores 49 of the channel web 29 and the bore 54 of the wall bracket 6 are coaxial with each other and preferably lie in a plane in which a vertical center plane M of the elongated support element 5 runs. In this way, the threaded rod 50 runs in the vertical center plane M of the elongated support elements 5 or vertically offset from the elongated support element 5. Advantageously, the horizontal position is secured in a vertical plane in which the frame profile 8 rests on the elongated support elements 5.

[0050] The threaded rod 50 extends in a horizontal plane above the roof surface 30, ensuring sufficient accessibility for actuating the tightening nut 52. For this purpose, the outer gutter web 29 is longer than the inner gutter web 28. Furthermore, the wall bracket 6 has such a vertical extension that its upper end is at a higher horizontal level than the roof surface 30.

[0051] Instead of a force-fit connection between the wall-adjacent profile element 10 and the wall bracket 6, a form-fit connection (not shown) can also be provided.
