Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] By the way, there are cases where two drip edges are connected by one connecting member. In this case, the flange of the connecting member protrudes outward from the outer ends of the two drip edges. There is a possibility that rainwater is guided to the portion that protrudes outward in the drip edge. When rainwater is guided to the portion that protrudes outward in the drip edge, rainwater accumulates in this portion, making it easy to form raindrop stains. The same can occur not only for the cover provided on the rising wall but also for the cover provided at the edge of a canopy.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0005] (1) The cover for solving the above problems is a cover provided at the upper part of the rising wall of a building or the edge of a canopy, and includes a plurality of cover members and a connecting member for connecting two of the cover members. The connecting member has a base portion having two support portions disposed inside the cover member, and a flange disposed between the two cover members and protruding from the base portion. The flange is configured such that, in a plan view, the outer end of the flange is located inward of the outer end of the cover member.

[0006] According to this configuration, the flange of the connecting member does not protrude from the outer end of the cover member in a plan view. Therefore, it is suppressed that rainwater flowing on the cover member concentrates on the outer end of the flange of the connecting member. Thereby, the dripping stain near the connecting member can be suppressed.

[0007] (2) In the cover according to (1) above, the cover member has a cover upper surface portion having the outer end, a first cover lower surface portion that extends inward by folding back from the outer end of the cover upper surface portion, a cover hanging portion that extends downward from the inner end of the first cover lower surface portion, and a second cover lower surface portion that extends inward from the lower portion of the cover hanging portion. The support portion of the connecting member has an upper surface portion disposed under the cover upper surface portion and configured to follow the cover upper surface portion, a first lower surface portion that extends inward by folding back from the outer end of the upper surface portion and is configured to follow the first cover lower surface portion, a hanging portion that extends downward from the inner end of the first lower surface portion and is configured to follow the cover hanging portion, and a second lower surface portion that extends inward from the lower portion of the hanging portion and extends to follow the second cover lower surface portion. The flange of the connecting member has a flange upper portion that extends upward from the upper surface portion, a flange outer end portion that bends downward from the outer end of the flange upper portion, a first flange lower portion that extends inward from the flange outer end portion, a flange hanging portion that extends downward from the inner end of the first flange lower portion, and a second flange lower portion that extends inward from the lower portion of the flange hanging portion. The outer end of the flange outer end portion is located inward of the outer end of the cover upper surface portion in a plan view.

[0008] According to this configuration, the outer end portion of the flange does not protrude outward from the outer end of the upper surface portion of the cover. Therefore, rainwater flowing on the upper surface portion of the cover is prevented from concentrating on the outer end portion of the flange. As a result, raindrop stains at the outer end portion of the flange can be suppressed.

[0009] (3) In the cover according to (2) above, the edge of the outer end portion of the flange is curved. According to this configuration, when rainwater flowing along the upper portion of the flange flows to the outer end portion of the flange, it flows from the lower portion of the first flange to the flange hanging portion along the curved outer end portion of the flange. As a result, the amount of rainwater falling from the outer end portion of the flange can be reduced.

[0010] (4) In the cover according to (2) or (3) above, the lower end of the flange hanging portion is located above the lower end of the cover hanging portion of the cover member. According to this configuration, the flange hanging portion does not protrude downward from the lower end of the cover hanging portion. Therefore, rainwater flowing to the cover hanging portion is prevented from concentrating on the flange hanging portion. As a result, raindrop stains at the flange hanging portion can be suppressed.

[0011] (5) In the cover according to any one of (2) to (4) above, the edge of the lower end portion of the flange hanging portion is curved. According to this configuration, when rainwater flowing along the flange hanging portion flows to the lower end portion of the flange hanging portion, it is transmitted from the lower end portion of the flange hanging portion to the lower portion of the second flange along the curved lower end portion. As a result, the amount of rainwater falling from the lower end portion of the flange hanging portion can be reduced.

[0012] (6) In the cover according to any one of (2) to (5) above, the lower surface of the lower portion of the first flange is configured to be flush with the lower surface of the first cover lower surface portion of the cover member. According to this configuration, the design of the cover can be improved.

[0013] (7) In the cover according to any one of (2) to (6) above, the outer surface of the flange hanging portion is configured to be flush with the outer surface of the cover hanging portion of the cover member. According to this configuration, the design of the cover can be improved.

[0014] (8) In the cover according to any one of (1) to (7) above, it is disposed at the upper part of the rising wall of the building. According to this configuration, in the cover disposed at the upper part of the rising wall in the building, the dripping of rain near the connecting member can be suppressed.

[0015] (9) In the cover according to any one of (1) to (7) above, it is disposed at the edge of the canopy main body. According to this configuration, in the cover disposed at the edge of the canopy main body in the building, the soiling by rain dripping near the connecting member can be suppressed.

[0016] ((10) The building for solving the problem includes a building main body, the rising wall provided on the building main body, and the cover according to any one of (1) to (7) above provided on the rising wall. According to this configuration, in the cover disposed on the rising wall in the building, the soiling by rain dripping near the connecting member can be suppressed.

[0017] (11) The building for solving the problem includes a building main body, a canopy main body provided on the building main body, and the cover according to any one of (1) to (7) above provided at the edge of the canopy main body. According to this configuration, in the cover disposed at the edge of the canopy in the building, the soiling by rain dripping near the connecting member can be suppressed.

Effect of the Invention

[0018] According to the cover and the building of the present disclosure, the soiling by rain dripping can be suppressed.

[0043] The third lower surface portion 28 extends outward DB from the lower portion of the inner side portion 27 and extends along the third cover lower surface portion 16. The third lower surface portion 28 is configured to contact the inner surface of the third cover lower surface portion 16 in the assembled state.

[0044] [Flange] The flange 30 is disposed between the two cover members 10 in the assembled state. The flange 30 is configured to project upward from the base portion 21. Also, in a plan view, the flange 30 is configured such that the outer end 30A of the flange 30 is located inward DA from the outer end 10A of the cover member 10. Hereinafter, the flange 30 will be specifically described.

[0045] As shown in FIG. 5, the flange 30 has a flange upper portion 31, a flange outer end portion 32, a first flange lower portion 33, a flange hanging portion 34, and a second flange lower portion 35. The flange 30 may further have a flange inner side portion 36 and a third flange lower portion 37.

[0046] The upper flange portion 31 extends upward from the upper surface portion 23 of the base portion 21.

The upper flange portion 31 has a first upper flange portion 31A provided on the first upper surface portion 23A and a second upper flange portion 31B provided on the second upper surface portion 23B.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 7, the outer flange end portion 32 bends downward from the outer end of the upper flange portion 31. The outer end 32A of the outer flange end portion 32 is located inward DA of the outer end 11C of the cover upper surface portion 11 in a plan view in the assembled state. The edge of the outer flange end portion 32 is curved in a side view. The outer end 32A of the outer flange end portion 32 is the portion located most outward DB at the edge of the outer flange end portion 32. The outer end 32A of the outer flange end portion 32 is the outer end 30A of the flange 30.

[0048] The first lower flange portion 33 extends inward DA from the outer flange end portion 32. The lower surface 33A of the first lower flange portion 33 is configured to be flush with the lower surface 12A of the first cover lower surface portion 12 of the cover member 10 in the assembled state.

[0049] The flange hanging portion 34 extends downward from the inner end of the first lower flange portion 33. The outer surface 34B of the flange hanging portion 34 is configured to be flush with the outer surface 13B of the cover hanging portion 13 of the cover member 10. The lower end 34A of the flange hanging portion 34 is located above the lower end 13A of the cover hanging portion 13 of the cover member 10 in the assembled state. The edge of the lower end portion 34C of the flange hanging portion 34 is curved.

[0050] The second lower flange portion 35 extends inward DA from the lower portion of the flange hanging portion 34. A part of the second lower flange portion 35 extends below the lower surface of the second cover lower surface portion 14 of the cover member 10.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 6, the inner flange portion 36 extends downward from the inner end of the upper flange portion 31. The inner flange portion 36 is disposed inside the rising wall 5 in the assembled state.

[0052] The lower part 37 of the third flange extends outwardly to DB from the lower part of the inner part 36 of the flange. The lower part 37 of the third flange is arranged inside the rising wall 5 in the assembled state.

[0053] [Operation of this Embodiment] The operation of the cover 9 of this embodiment will be described in comparison with the cover 49 of the reference example.

[0054] FIG. 8 is a view of the cover 49 of the reference example when rain is starting to fall. In the cover 49 of the reference example, the flange 52 of the connecting member 51 is located outwardly to DB in a plan view, with the outer end 52A of the flange 52 being located further outward than the outer end 50A of the cover member 50. In this case, in the two cover members 50 positioned so as to sandwich the flange 52, rainwater flows as follows. The rainwater flowing near the flange 52 in one cover member 50 and the rainwater flowing near the flange 52 in the other cover member 50 merge at the outer end 52A of the flange 52. Then, at the outer end 52A of the flange 52, the amount of raindrops increases. When such situations overlap, gradually, the raindrop stains near the outer end 52A of the flange 52 increase.

[0055] FIG. 9 is a perspective view of the cover 9 with rain falling thereon for this embodiment. FIG. 10 is a view of the cover 9 with rain falling thereon as seen from the front.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 9, in the cover 9 of this embodiment, in a plan view, the outer end 30A of the flange 30 is located inwardly to DA from the outer end 10A of the cover member 10. For this reason, the confluence of rainwater as in the reference example is less likely to occur.

[0057] Specifically, a part of the rainwater flowing near the flange 30 in one cover member 10 flows to the outer end 30A of the flange 30, while another part of the rainwater falls downward from the outer end 10A of the said cover member 10. A part of the rainwater flowing near the flange 30 in the other cover member 10 flows to the outer end 30A of the flange 30, while another part of the rainwater falls downward from the outer end 10A of the said cover member 10.

[0058] In this way, it is possible to suppress the rainwater of the two cover members 10 sandwiching the flange 30 from merging at the outer end 30A of the flange 30. As a result, according to the present embodiment, compared with the case where the outer end 30A of the flange 30 is located outward DB from the outer end 10A of the cover member 10 as in the reference example, it is possible to suppress an increase in raindrop stains near the outer end 30A of the flange 30.

[0059] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 10, the lower end 34A of the flange hanging portion 34 is located above the lower end 13A of the cover hanging portion 13 of the cover member 10. For this reason, it is difficult for rainwater to merge. Specifically, a part of the rainwater flowing near the flange 30 in one cover member 10 flows to the lower end 34A of the flange hanging portion 34 of the flange 30, while another part of the rainwater falls downward from the lower end 13A of the cover hanging portion 13 of the cover member 10. A part of the rainwater flowing near the flange 30 in the other cover member 10 flows to the lower end 34A of the flange hanging portion 34 of the flange 30, while another part of the rainwater falls downward from the lower end 13A of the cover hanging portion 13 of the cover member 10.

[0060] In this way, it is possible to suppress the rainwater of the two cover members 10 sandwiching the flange 30 from merging at the lower end 34A of the flange hanging portion 34 of the flange 30. As a result, it is possible to suppress an increase in raindrop stains near the flange hanging portion 34 of the flange 30.

[0061] [Effects of the Present Embodiment] The effects of the present embodiment will be described. (1) The cover 9 includes a plurality of cover members 10 and a connecting member 20 that connects the two cover members 10. The connecting member 20 has a base portion 21 and a flange 30 protruding from the base portion 21. The flange 30 is configured such that, in a plan view, the outer end 30A of the flange 30 is located inward DA from the outer end 10A of the cover member 10.

[0062] According to this configuration, the flange 30 of the connecting member 20 does not protrude from the outer end 10A of the cover member 10 in plan view. For this reason, it is suppressed that rainwater flowing on the cover member 10 concentrates on the outer end 30A of the flange 30 of the connecting member 20. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the dripping stain near the connecting member 20.

[0063] (2) The flange 30 of the connecting member 20 has a flange upper portion 31, a flange outer end portion 32 that bends downward from the outer end of the flange upper portion 31, a first flange lower portion 33, a flange hanging portion 34, and a second flange lower portion 35. The outer end 32A of the flange outer end portion 32 is located inward DA of the outer end 11C of the cover upper surface portion 11 in plan view.

[0064] According to this configuration, the flange outer end portion 32 does not protrude outward DB from the outer end 11C of the cover upper surface portion 11. For this reason, it is suppressed that rainwater flowing on the cover upper surface portion 11 concentrates on the flange outer end portion 32. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the dripping stain on the flange outer end portion 32.

[0065] (3) The edge of the flange outer end portion 32 is curved. According to this configuration, when rainwater flowing along the flange upper portion 31 flows to the flange outer end portion 32, it flows from the first flange lower portion 33 to the flange hanging portion 34 along the curved flange outer end portion 32. Thereby, it is possible to reduce the rainwater falling from the flange outer end portion 32.

[0066] (4) The lower end 34A of the flange hanging portion 34 is located above the lower end 13A of the cover hanging portion 13 of the cover member 10. According to this configuration, the flange hanging portion 34 does not protrude downward from the lower end 13A of the cover hanging portion 13. For this reason, it is suppressed that rainwater flowing on the cover hanging portion 13 concentrates on the flange hanging portion 34. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the dripping stain on the flange hanging portion 34.

[0067] (5) The edge of the lower end 34C of the flange hanging portion 34 is curved (see Fig. 7). According to this configuration, when rainwater flowing along the flange hanging portion 34 flows to the lower end 34C of the flange hanging portion 34, it is transmitted from the lower end 34C of the flange hanging portion 34 to the second lower flange portion 35 along the curved lower end 34C. Thereby, the rainwater falling from the lower end 34C of the flange hanging portion 34 can be reduced.

[0068] (6) The lower surface 33A of the first lower flange portion 33 is configured to be flush with the lower surface 12A of the first cover lower surface portion 12 of the cover member 10 (see Fig. 7). According to this configuration, the design of the cover 9 can be improved.

[0069] (7) The outer surface 34B of the flange hanging portion 34 is configured to be flush with the outer surface 13B of the cover hanging portion 13 of the cover member 10 (see Fig. 7). According to this configuration, the design of the cover 9 can be improved.

[0070] (8) The cover 9 is arranged at the upper part of the rising wall 5 of the building 1. According to this configuration, in the cover 9 arranged at the upper part of the rising wall 5 in the building 1, raindrops can be suppressed.

[0071] (9) The building 1 includes a building main body 2, a rising wall 5 provided on the building main body 2, and a cover 9 provided on the rising wall 5. According to this configuration, in the cover 9 arranged on the rising wall 5 in the building 1, the raindrop stain near the connecting member 20 can be suppressed.

[0072] <Modification Example> The above embodiments are examples of the forms that the building 1 and the cover 9 can take, and are not intended to limit that form. The building 1 and the cover 9 can take forms different from those illustrated in the above embodiments. Examples thereof are forms in which a part of the configuration of the embodiment is replaced, changed, or omitted, or forms in which a new configuration is added to the embodiment.

The technology disclosed in the embodiment can be applied to the cover 9 where two members are connected. Hereinafter, examples different from the present embodiment will be described.

[0074] As shown in FIG. 11, the building 1 includes a building main body 2 and a canopy 7. The canopy 7 includes a canopy main body portion 8 provided on the building main body 2 and a cover 59 provided at the edge of the canopy main body portion 8. The canopy 7 constitutes, for example, a flat roof of an entrance or a flat roof of a parking lot.

[0075] As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the cover 59 substantially has a structure similar to that of the cover 9 of the embodiment. Specifically, the cover 59 includes a plurality of cover members 60 and a connecting member 70. Similar to the embodiment, the cover member 60 has a cover upper surface portion 61, a first cover lower surface portion 62, a cover hanging portion 63, and a second cover lower surface portion 64. The cover upper surface portion 61 has a first cover upper surface portion 61A and a second cover upper surface portion 61B.

[0076] As shown in FIG. 14, the connecting member 70 has a base portion 71 and a flange 80. The base portion 71 has two support portions 72. The support portion 72 has an upper surface portion 73, a first lower surface portion 74, a hanging portion 75, and a second lower surface portion 76. The flange 80 has a flange upper portion 81, a flange outer end portion 82, a first flange lower portion 83, a flange hanging portion 84, and a second flange lower portion 85.

[0077] As shown in FIG. 15, the flange 80 is configured such that in a plan view, the outer end 80A of the flange 80 is located inward DA from the outer end 60A of the cover member 60. According to such a cover 59, in the canopy 7 of the building 1, dripping water in the vicinity of the connecting member 70 can be suppressed.
