AI Technical Summary
Existing carport ceiling structures face challenges in snow resistance and appearance, with cantilever structures risking pillar tilt or material fall under snow, and beam-supported structures resulting in thicker roofs and high costs due to complex bonding and special cross-sectional shapes.
A ceiling structure for carports featuring a roof material supported by beam material, with a first ceiling material parallel to the roof and a second ceiling material inclined upwardly towards the first, creating a narrower appearance and improved snow resistance without the need for special members or complex bonding.
The proposed ceiling structure enhances snow resistance by distributing snow weight across the beam material and maintains a clean, thin appearance by narrowing the visible width from the roof to the ceiling, thus addressing both functional and aesthetic concerns at a lower cost.

Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a ceiling structure of a carport that is installed to protect parked automobiles and passengers from sunlight, wind and rain. [Background technology]
[0002] Homes and businesses often have carports installed in their parking lots. Carports have a variety of practical functions, such as protecting cars and people from sunlight, wind, and rain, and preventing snow from accumulating on cars during snowfall.
[0003] On the other hand, carports are separate structures from houses and are built in relatively visible locations, such as in front of or around buildings such as houses. Building carports in relatively visible locations can cause problems with the appearance, such as the pillars that the carport itself has obstructing the view or impeding the design of the house.
[0004] Therefore, in the past, in order to create carports with a good appearance, technologies have been developed that improve the appearance by making the ceiling material and structural materials such as beams appear separate, allowing the entire underside of the ceiling material to be seen, and giving a clean impression.
[0005] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a cantilevered carport 800 as shown in Figure 9, in which a ceiling material 81 is suspended from a roof body 82 so that the underside 83 of the ceiling material 81 is formed flat.
[0006] Furthermore, Patent Document 2 discloses a technology for a carport 900 in which, as shown in FIG. 10, a beam 92 is erected on a first beam 91, a second beam 93 is provided on the beam 92, and a roof material 94 and a ceiling material 95 are provided to sandwich the second beam 93, thereby placing the ceiling material 95 above the first beam 91. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0007] [Patent Document 1] JP 2022-160553 A [Patent Document 2] JP 2020-101009 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0008] However, the carport in Patent Document 1 has a cantilever structure in which the ceiling material is suspended from the roof body, which means that if snow falls and accumulates on the roof body, there is a risk that the pillars will tilt or that the ceiling material or roof material will fall.
[0009] On the other hand, in the carport of Patent Document 2, a second beam is provided on a beam erected on a first beam, and a roof material and a ceiling material are provided on the second beam. Therefore, even if snow accumulates on the roof material, the weight of the snow is supported by the second beam, beam and first beam, so the strength is high. Furthermore, since the ceiling material is disposed above the first beam, the first beam is hidden by the ceiling material and cannot be seen, so it can be made to look as if the roof material and ceiling material are supported only by the first beam.
[0010] However, in the carport of Patent Document 2, the roof material and ceiling material are arranged to sandwich the second beam material, which causes the roof part to become thick and looks unrefined. In addition, the connection structure of each of the first beam material, the beam material, and the second beam material in Patent Document 2 is complicated, and each member must use an extrusion material with a special cross-sectional shape, which causes a problem of high costs.
[0011] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and its object is to provide a carport ceiling structure that is excellent in snow resistance and also in appearance. [Means for solving the problem]
[0012] The means adopted by the present inventors to solve the above problems will be described below. The carport ceiling structure of the present invention comprises a roof material supported by beams and a ceiling material disposed below the roof material. The ceiling material further comprises a first ceiling material that is substantially parallel to the roof, and a second ceiling material that is disposed forward of the first ceiling material and inclines upward toward the front relative to the first ceiling material.
[0013] Here, the beam material refers to a roof supporting structural material that is parallel to the width direction of the carport, and the girder material refers to a roof supporting structural material that is perpendicular to the beam material and parallel to the depth direction of the carport. In addition, sloping upward toward the front means that the second ceiling material is at an angle to the first ceiling material, so that the second ceiling material is sloping upward relatively, and includes not only a linear slope but also a curved slope. Furthermore, being supported includes not only being directly supported, but also being supported via other members.
[0014] In the case of a structure where the roof is suspended, the weight of accumulated snow is concentrated at the fastening parts of the suspension, so if the fastening parts break, there is a risk that the suspended roof material will fall. In contrast, in this invention, the roof material is placed on the beams, so the weight of the accumulated snow can be supported by the beams, and the snow resistance strength can be increased.
[0015] In such structures where roof materials are supported by beams, it is common to place a ceiling material underneath the beams or the girder material placed underneath them; however, placing beams between the roof material and the ceiling material can make the entire roof thick and look unrefined. Therefore, in the present invention, a second ceiling material is provided that is inclined upward and forward with respect to the first ceiling material.
[0016] In the above configuration, by providing a second ceiling material that is inclined forward with respect to the first ceiling material, the inclined second ceiling material can be seen when the carport is viewed from the front. Since the second ceiling material is inclined in an upward direction toward the front, the part that corresponds to the so-called gable (the thickness part from the top surface of the roof to the ceiling) becomes narrow. This makes the width from the roof material to the ceiling material appear narrower, making the entire roof appear thinner.
[0017] Among the means that can be adopted to solve the problem, the following means can also be used. In the present invention, it is also possible to provide a configuration in which a tilt beam is further provided in front of the tilt beam, and a second ceiling material is provided below the tilt beam.
[0018] In the above configuration, by providing a tilt beam between the roof material and the tilted second ceiling material, the load generated on the roof material in the front part of the carport can be supported by the tilt beam. This improves the strength, so even if there is snow on the front part of the protruding carport or snow accumulated on the entire roof material slides down to the front, there is no risk of the roof material or the second ceiling material being damaged by such loads.
[0019] As other means that can be adopted to solve the problem, the following means can also be used. In the present invention, it is also possible to adopt a configuration in which a pair of supports are provided perpendicular to the ground, and the beams include a first beam provided between the pair of supports and a second beam supporting the roofing material. In this configuration, a plurality of beams are provided between the first beam and the second beam, the first ceiling material is provided below the second beam, and the second ceiling material is provided below the second beam and in front of the second beam.
[0020] In the above configuration, the roof material is supported by the second beam material, and the second beam material is further supported by the first beam material via the beam material, thereby increasing snow resistance. On the other hand, since the first ceiling material is provided below the second beam material, when looking up from below the carport, it appears as if there is a ceiling above the first beam material, making it appear as if a single beam material is supporting the roof material. This allows for a neat and tidy appearance without giving the impression of a complex structure.
[0021] As another means that can be adopted to solve the problem, a configuration in which a trim material is provided between the first ceiling material and the second ceiling material is also possible. By providing a trim material, the gap between the first ceiling material and the second ceiling material can be filled and hidden.
[0022] In the above configuration, it is also possible to provide a fixing member directly on the beam material or via another member parallel to the beam material, and to attach the trim material by engaging with the fixing member. Here, the fixing member refers to an elongated member having a predetermined cross-sectional shape, for example a metal or resin member such as a sash used in a window frame.
[0023] By engaging the trim material with the fixing member, installation can be easily achieved without using fastening members such as bolts. In addition, since the fixing member is a long object with a specified cross section, the trim material can be inserted from the end of the fixing member and sent out while sliding, thereby positioning and fixing it along the beam.
[0024] As yet another means that can be adopted to solve the problem, the fixing member can be composed of a first fixing member and a second fixing member, the cross-sectional shape of the first fixing member being approximately U-shaped opening toward the first girder side, and the cross-sectional shape of the second fixing member being approximately U-shaped opening toward the second girder side, and the trim material can be configured to extend from the first surface so as to be engageable from the opening side of the first fixing member, and to extend from the second surface so as to be engageable from the opening side of the second fixing member.
[0025] The first and second fixing members are each configured with a cross section with an opening facing outward, while the trim material is configured with a cross section that opens inward, so that even if the first and second beams are deformed in a direction that separates them due to temperature changes, the gap will not widen and the trim material will not fall off. Therefore, the appearance will not be impaired regardless of the season.
[0026] As yet another means that can be adopted to solve the problem, a configuration in which siding material is used for the first ceiling material and the second ceiling material can be used. Siding is a building material that is generally used for exterior walls, and is highly durable and has a wide range of design features. By using siding for the ceiling material of a carport, a high level of design can be achieved. Effect of the Invention
[0027] The carport ceiling structure of the present invention is configured so that the beams support the roof material, thereby increasing snow resistance. In addition, by having a first ceiling material that is approximately parallel to the roof material and a second ceiling material that is positioned forward of the first ceiling material and inclines upward toward the front relative to the first ceiling material, when the carport is viewed from the front, the width from the roof material to the ceiling material appears narrower, making the entire roof appear thinner.
[0028] In this way, the carport ceiling structure of the present invention has the advantage of being able to produce a carport ceiling structure that has high snow resistance and excellent appearance, without the need to use special low-height, high-strength components to make the roof portion appear thin.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0030] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. In the following description, the drawings are schematic in order to simplify the description, and for example, the number of bundles and bolts is shown smaller than in the embodiment.
[0031] [Basic structure of a carport] First, the basic structure will be described. A carport 100 using the carport ceiling structure of the present invention is a residential carport capable of parking automobiles, as shown in Fig. 1. The carport 100 in Fig. 1 is a carport for two cars, and has three rows of pairs of support pillars 1·1 arranged vertically to the ground in the front-rear direction. The support pillar 1 is a hollow metal member having a predetermined cross-sectional shape, and is placed on a foundation in which concrete has been poured. The number and arrangement of the pillars 1 are adjusted appropriately depending on the required snow resistance and number of parked cars.
[0032] As shown in the cross-sectional view of Figure 1, the carport 100 comprises first beams 21-21... provided between a pair of posts 1-1, a number of beams 3-3... provided on the first beams 21-21..., and second beams 22-22... supported by the beams 3-3... and supporting a roof material 4. The roof material 4 is a so-called folded plate roof that is slightly inclined downward from the rear to the front. This allows rainwater to flow in one direction. In addition, second girder members 52, 52... are also provided at predetermined intervals on the upper part of the second beam members 22, 22..., and the convex portion of the folded plate roof is supported by these second girder members 52, 52....
[0033] Additionally, a plurality of first beams 51 are provided at predetermined intervals below the second beams 22 that support the roof material 4. Auxiliary beams 23 are provided below the first beams 51, and ceiling materials 6 are provided on the auxiliary beams 23. In other words, when looking up at carport 100 from below, the first beams 21-21... and the beams 3-3... can be seen, while the second beams 22-22... are covered by the ceiling materials 6-6... and cannot be seen, so that although the roof material 4 is supported by two beams 2, at first glance it appears as if only the first beams 21-21... are supporting the ceiling material 6-6....
[0034] The first beams 21, second beams 22, struts 3, and girders 5 can be made of hollow metal members like the support columns 1, but may also be made of fiber-reinforced resin or the like. Further, although a siding material is used as the ceiling material 6 in the embodiment of FIG. 1, a resin plate on which a pattern is applied by printing or pressing may also be used.
[0035] [Sloped ceiling structure] Next, a detailed description will be given of the ceiling structure of the carport 100. The ceiling structure of the carport 100 has different configurations for the ceiling directly above the space for parking the car and the front entrance area through which the car enters. Focusing on the front portion (the side where cars enter and exit), the first ceiling materials 61-61... directly above the parking space are arranged approximately parallel to the roof material 4, whereas in the front portion, the second ceiling materials 62-62... are configured to be inclined upward toward the front.
[0036] Describing the structure of this front portion in more detail, as shown in Figure 2, the structure of the front portion comprises a second beam 22 supporting the roof 4, a first girder 51 arranged below the second beam 22, a second girder 52 arranged above the second beam 22, and a tilt beam 23 attached below the second girder 52 and forward of the second beam 22.
[0037] In addition, a trim material 7 is provided between the first ceiling material 61 and the second ceiling material 62 via another member. This trim material 7 has a first surface 71 that is approximately parallel to the first ceiling material 61 and a second surface 72 that is approximately parallel to the second ceiling material 62. Note that the trim material 7 may be provided directly between the first ceiling material 61 and the second ceiling material 62 without using another member.
[0038] The first girder members 51, 51... are arranged approximately parallel to the roof material 4 from directly above the parking space to the rear, and first ceiling members 61, 61... are arranged below them, forming a ceiling approximately parallel to the roof material 4.
[0039] Regarding the fixing structure of the trim material 7, in the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, the trim material 7 is provided to the second beam 22 by engaging with the fixing member 8 via a plurality of parts. The fixing member 8 may be an integrated part, but in the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, it is divided into a first fixing member 81 and a second fixing member 82. That is, the trim material 7 is attached by engaging with the first fixing member 81 and the second fixing member 82.
[0040] Here, the cross-sectional shape of the first fixing member 81 is approximately U-shaped opening on the first beam 51 side, and the cross-sectional shape of the second fixing member 82 is approximately U-shaped opening on the second beam 52 side. The trim material 7 is configured so that a portion extends from the first surface 71 and is engageable with the opening side of the first fixing member 81, and another portion extends from the second surface 72 and is engageable with the opening side of the second fixing member 82.
[0041] 2, the trim material 7 and the first and second ceiling materials 61 and 62 are inserted into the openings of the first fixing member 81 and the openings of the second fixing member 82. This ensures that the first and second ceiling materials 61 and 62 are fixed securely, and does not impair the ease of installation of the trim material 7.
[0042] Meanwhile, lights L such as downlights are provided at predetermined intervals on the inclined ceiling portion. The lights L are attached so as to irradiate light in a direction perpendicular to the inclined second ceiling materials 62·62. This makes it possible to widely illuminate the front of the carport 100 when parking a car at night. Therefore, compared to a case where light is irradiated perpendicularly to the ground, parking at night is easier and also helps prevent accidents. The lighting L may be provided in the ceiling portion parallel to the roof material 6, and by irradiating light in a direction perpendicular to the first ceiling material 61, the inside of the carport 100 can be brightened overall. This makes it easier to get in and out of the car at night.
[0043] As described above, by providing the trim material 7 between the first ceiling material 61 parallel to the roof material 4 and the second ceiling material 62 inclined relative to the first ceiling material 61, the gap between the first ceiling material 61 and the second ceiling material 62 can be neatly concealed. Also, by making the appearance of the trim material 7 the same as that of the first ceiling material 61 and the second ceiling material 62, when the carport 100 is viewed from the front, the first ceiling material 61 and the second ceiling material 62 appear to form a single ceiling, and the thickness of the roof material 4 and the second ceiling material 62 appear thin, resulting in a neat appearance.
[0044] [Roof support structure] Next, the roof support structure of the carport 100 will be described in detail. As described above, the roof support structure of the carport 100 includes a pair of posts 1.1 vertically arranged on the ground, first beams 21.21... arranged between the pair of posts 1.1, a plurality of beams 3.3... arranged on the first beams 21.21..., and second beams 22.22... supported by the plurality of beams 3.3... and supporting the roof material 4. In addition, a plurality of first beams 51.51... are provided at a predetermined interval below the second beams 22.22... supporting the roof material 4. And first ceiling materials 61.61... are provided below the first beams 51.51....
[0045] 3 shows a cross section at the position of beam 2. The first beam 21 and bundle 3 are fixed via metal fittings A·A... with a U-shaped cross section fixed inside bundle 3. Similarly, the second beam 22 and bundle 3 are fixed via metal fittings A·A... with a U-shaped cross section fixed inside bundle 3. Metal fitting A has fastening holes A1·A1... on each of three sides, and the fastening holes A1·A1... on the two opposing sides have been burred and have female threads cut, while the fastening hole A1·A1... on the remaining side is a normal hole without a female thread.
[0046] The beam material 3 is fixed to the second beam material 22 by fastening a through hole 221 provided in the second beam material 22 to a fastening hole A1 provided in the metal fitting A with a nut and a bolt inserted into the inside of the second beam material 22. 3, second beam 22 is provided with rail portion 222 extending in the longitudinal direction, and connecting bolt B, which is a bolt fixed to a plate material, can be inserted along the rail. This rail has a retaining structure, and by inserting connecting bolt B from the end and sliding it in the longitudinal direction, connecting bolt B can be placed in a predetermined position without falling off second beam 22.
[0047] On the other hand, for fixing the bundle 3 to the first beam 22, the through hole 211 provided in the first beam 21 and the fastening hole A1 provided in the metal fitting A are fastened with a bolt that can be fastened without using a nut. An example of a bolt that can be fastened without using a nut is a roof bolt R. The first beam 21 also has a rail portion 212 extending in the longitudinal direction, but as shown in Figure 3, the rail portion 212 is arranged facing downward, and the upper surface side to which the beam 3 is fixed does not have a rail portion 212.
[0048] By using the roof bolt R, even on the upper surface side of the first beam material 21 that does not have the rail portion 212, there is no need to insert a nut inside and fasten it with a bolt. Generally, when tightening a bolt to a nut, it is necessary to hold the nut down with hands, a wrench, etc., to prevent the nut from falling inside the first beam 21. However, when the bundles 3·3... are installed in an out-of-reach position more than 1 m away from both ends of the first beam 21, it is not possible to hold the nut down with hands, a wrench, etc. Therefore, by using the roof bolt R, even if the location is difficult to reach, the metal fitting A and the second beam material 22 can be fastened together simply by tightening the roof bolt R from the outside with a wrench without using a general nut.
[0049] To fix the bundle 3 to the metal fitting A, bolts (not shown) are inserted into bolt holes 31-31... provided on two opposing sides of the bundle 3 and fixed to the female-threaded fastening hole A1 of the metal fitting A.
[0050] Here, if a hollow member with rails 221 like the second beam 22 is used for the first beam 21 on the upper surface, it may be possible to position the connecting bolts B that secure the bolts to the plate without them falling off. Indeed, hollow parts with rails are commonly used in the field of carports.
[0051] However, hollow parts generally used in carports have a rail only on one side, not on both sides. Here, the first beam 21 is fastened to the posts 1, 1... using connecting bolts B (not shown). Therefore, the first beam 21 must be arranged so that the rail portion 221 faces downward, and the upper surface side has no rail portion 212. In this case, the connecting bolt B cannot be used for the bundle 3 fixed to the upper surface portion.
[0052] Therefore, the first beam 21 is fixed to the beam 3 using a roof bolt R that can be fastened without using a nut. On the other hand, a hollow member having a rail portion 222 is used for the second beam material 22 supporting the roof material 4, and the beam material 3 and the second beam material 22 are fixed together using a connecting bolt B and a conventional nut.
[0053] With this configuration, even if the carport has a long span beam 2, the beams 3...3 can be installed at a position more than 1 m away from both ends of the first beam 21, making the carport strong overall. In addition, although it is a high-strength structure using the first beam material 21 and the second beam material 22, the second beam material 22 is configured so as not to be visible due to the ceiling material 6, so that there is less rough beam material 2 visible, and the appearance is also excellent.
[0054] [Roof support structure assembly procedure] The above-described roof support structure is assembled according to the procedure shown in FIG. First, as shown in Fig. 4(a), metal fitting A is attached with a bolt and a nut to a predetermined position of the second beam 22. As described above, a connecting bolt B is inserted from the end into the rail portion 222 provided on the second beam 22, and metal fitting A is fixed at a position where the fastening hole A1 of metal fitting A corresponds to the through hole 221 of the second girder.
[0055] 4(b), the metal fitting A is attached to the first beam 21 at a predetermined position in the same manner as the second beam 22. At this time, instead of using a typical bolt and nut, the roof bolt R is inserted from the fastening hole A1 of the metal fitting A through the through hole 221 of the first beam 21. Then, by turning the nut screwed onto the shaft of the roof bolt R with a roof driver or the like, the metal fittings at the tip of the roof bolt R open, forming a retaining member on the inside of the first beam material 21, and fixing it in place.
[0056] Then, as shown in FIG. 4(c), the beam 3 is sandwiched and installed between the first beam 21 and the second beam 22 to which the metal fitting A is attached. Specifically, since the first beam 21 is attached to the posts 1·1 first, the bundle 3 is first attached to the first beam 21. At this time, the metal fitting A of the first beam 21 is inserted into the hollow portion of the bundle 3.
[0057] Next, the fastening holes A1·A1..., which have been pre-threaded on the two opposing sides of the metal fitting A, are aligned with the bolt holes 31·31..., which are provided at corresponding positions on the bundle 3, and bolts are inserted into the bolt holes 31·31... to secure the bracket.
[0058] Finally, the second beam 22 with the metal fitting A attached is placed on the bundle 3, and similarly, the female-threaded fastening holes A1·A1... on the two opposing sides of the metal fitting A are aligned with the bolt holes 31·31... on the corresponding positions of the bundle 3, and bolts are inserted into the bolt holes 31·31... to secure the beam 22 in place.
[0059] By following the above procedure, even when it is necessary to attach the beams 3 at positions 1 m or more away from both ends of the first beam 21, a high-strength roof support structure can be easily assembled.
[0060] [Ceiling structure around beams] Next, the ceiling structure around the bundle 3 of the carport 100 will be described in detail. Fig. 5 is a diagram showing the state around the bundle 3 when looking up at the ceiling of the carport 100 from below. As described above, the roof support structure of the carport 100 includes a pair of posts 1·1 arranged perpendicular to the ground, first beams 21·21... arranged between the pair of posts 1·1, a plurality of bundles 3·3... arranged on the first beams 21·21..., and second beams 22·22... supported by the plurality of bundles 3·3... and supporting the roof material 4.
[0061] 5, an insertion piece 9 having a U-shaped cross section is attached to the periphery of the beam 3 on the side of the second beam 22. The ceiling material 6 can be inserted and fixed into the opening 91 of this insertion piece 9. Here, a plurality of purlins 53 are provided below the second beam 22, and a plurality of auxiliary beams 24 are provided below the plurality of purlins 53. The insertion pieces 9 are attached to the plurality of auxiliary beams 24.
[0062] As shown in Fig. 6, the insertion pieces 9 are formed by bending a thin metal or resin plate into a U-shape. Both ends of the exterior surface 92, which is the surface that faces the first beam 21 when installed, are at a 45-degree angle, and the four insertion pieces 9, 9... are combined and arranged around the bundle 3 so that both 45-degree ends face each other. By arranging them in this way, it is possible to form openings facing outward all around the bundle 3 without any gaps.
[0063] In addition, the exterior surface 92 is surface-treated so as to have the same appearance as the ceiling material 6. For example, if the ceiling material 6 is a wood-grain siding material, the exterior surface 92 of the insert piece 9 is also surface-treated by printing or the like so as to have a wood-grain appearance.
[0064] On the other hand, the surface of the insertion piece 9 opposite to the exterior surface 92 is an attachment surface 93 for the auxiliary beams 24·24.... The attachment surface 93 has an area larger than the exterior surface 92, and can be fixed to the auxiliary beams 24·24... by drilling holes in it and using screws (not shown) or the like. At this time, the attachment surface 93 is shaped so as not to interfere with the attachment surfaces 93 of adjacent insertion pieces 9.
[0065] With four of the above-mentioned insertion pieces 9·9... combined and arranged around the bundle 3, the ceiling material 6 is inserted into the openings facing outward. At this time, parts of the opposing side ends of the adjacent ceiling materials 6·6 are cut out, and the cut out parts are inserted into the openings of the insertion pieces 9 and fixed.
[0066] In this way, by attaching the insertion pieces 9.9... around the bundle material 3 and inserting the notched ceiling materials 6.6... into the insertion pieces 9.9..., the insertion pieces 9.9... serve both as fixing pieces and as a dividing piece, and the ceiling material 6 can be attached neatly around the bundle material 3. In addition, by cutting out a portion of the opposing side ends of adjacent ceiling materials 6 / 6, the bundle material 3 can be inserted from both sides so that it is sandwiched between the two ceiling materials 6 / 6, making it easy to install the ceiling material 6.
[0067] 『Variation 1』 The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and other embodiments may be adopted. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, the second ceiling materials 62·62... sloping upward toward the front were directly fixed to the inclination beams 23. In contrast, the ceiling structure of the carport 101 shown in Fig. 7 is different in that the inclination girder 54 is fixed to the inclination beams 23, and the second ceiling material 62 is fixed to the inclination girder 54.
[0068] In this modification, the second ceiling material 62 is fixed to a sturdy tilt beam 54, which is fixed to the second beam 52 via a splint. As a result, even if a load such as snow acts on the roof material 4, the load can be supported by the tilt beam 54, preventing the tilted second ceiling material 62 from tilting or warping.
[0069] 『Variation 2』 In addition to the above, the present invention can adopt further other forms. The carport 102 shown in Figure 8 is different in that the end of the second ceiling material 62 contacts the side of the second beam material 22 and is inclined forward from the side of the second beam material 22 by a fixing member 8 provided in the middle of the second beam material 22.
[0070] In order to improve the snow resistance, the height of the second beams 22 must be increased. However, if the height of the second beams 22 is increased, the inclination angle of the second ceiling material 62 increases, making the roof portion appear thicker.
[0071] In this modified example, even if the second beam 22 is tall, by fixing the end of the second ceiling material 62 so that it abuts the side of the second beam 22, the visible area of the sloping second ceiling material 62 can be reduced when the carport 102 is viewed from the front, and while it is strong, it can also have the appearance of a thin, neat roof.
[0072] As described above, the present invention is capable of constructing a carport ceiling structure that is highly snow-resistant and has a good appearance at low cost, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and various modifications are possible. For example, the trim material 7 may be attached directly to the beam material 5 instead of being attached to the fixing member 8. [Explanation of symbols]
