Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an outdoor structure such as a carport, in which a roof body having a frame material around the periphery is supported by roof supports such as posts and beams. [Background technology]

[0002] For example, when a roof structure with frame materials such as side frames around the panels is supported above the supports, a structure is used in which brackets are interposed between the upper ends of the supports and the side frames. The brackets are attached to the inner periphery of the side frames and are difficult to see from the outside, which is advantageous in terms of appearance quality (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2022-9704 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, if a gap is secured between the upper surface of the support column and the lower surface of the side frame, even if there are processing or assembly errors, the work of installing the bracket can be simplified by appropriately adjusting the gap amount. In other words, adjusting the gap amount allows the screw holes in the support column and side frame to be aligned with the screw insertion holes in the bracket, making it easy to thread screws into the screw holes through the screw insertion holes. However, after being connected to the support column via the bracket, the side frame can move in a direction that reduces the gap. Therefore, there is a concern that, for example, if an external force is applied from the panel, the side frame may be displaced so as to tilt outward.

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, the present invention aims to provide an outdoor structure that can facilitate the work of installing brackets without causing the side frames of the roof body to be displaced toward the outer periphery after being attached to the roof support. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the outdoor structure of the present invention is an outdoor structure comprising a roof body with a frame material around it, and the roof body is supported on the roof support via a bracket with the frame material overlapping above the roof support, and the bracket is attached to the inner periphery of the frame material, and at least one of the frame material and the roof support is provided with an abutment portion that abuts the other on the outer periphery side of the mounting position of the bracket. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] According to the present invention, the outer peripheral portions of the frame and roof support abut against each other by the abutment. This makes it possible to easily install the bracket by adjusting the gap on the inner peripheral side, and also makes it possible to prevent the frame from shifting outward after installation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of an outdoor structure according to the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 to 7 show an outdoor structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. The outdoor structure illustrated here is a carport with a rectangular outer shape intended to accommodate a flat parking space, and is configured with a rear frame 10A, a front frame 10B, and a roof body 20. The two frames 10A, 10B are configured by erecting beams 12 between the upper ends of left and right support columns (roof supports) 11, and are provided at positions that will become the rear and front edges of the parking space.

[0010] The support pillars 11 are extruded members made of metal such as aluminum alloy, and are configured to have a rectangular tubular cross section. Each support pillar 11 stands vertically from the parking space, with its upper end nearly horizontal. In each of the frames 10A and 10B, the protruding dimension of the support pillars 11 is the same on the left and right, and the beams 12 extend nearly horizontally. The protruding dimension of the support pillars 11 in the rear frame 10A is set larger than that of the front frame 10B.

[0011] A cap 13 (roof support) is attached to the upper end of the support 11. The cap 13 is molded, for example, from resin, and is attached to the support 11 while covering the upper end opening of the support 11, as shown in Figures 8 and 9. The cap 13 is provided with an attachment hole 13a, an abutment protrusion (abutment portion) 13b, and an inner peripheral protrusion 13c. The attachment hole 13a is a rectangular through-hole located approximately in the center of the upper surface 13g. The abutment protrusion 13b is located closer to the outer periphery of the roof body 20 than the attachment hole 13a when the cap 13 is attached to the upper end of the support 11, and is located at a position separated from the attachment hole 13a, and protrudes upward. In this embodiment, the abutment protrusion 13b has a certain width and is provided so as to extend forward and backward. As is clear from the figure, the abutment protrusion 13b has a ridge 13d at a point that divides the front-to-rear dimension of the cap 13 into approximately two equal parts. The abutment surface (the upper surface of the abutment) 13e on the front side of the ridge 13d and the abutment surface (the upper surface of the abutment) 13f on the rear side are both inclined downward. The inclination angles of the abutment surfaces 13e and 13f from the horizontal plane are approximately the same on the rear and front sides (the inclination directions are opposite). The inner peripheral protrusion 13c is provided on an edge that is closer to the inner periphery of the roof body 20 than the mounting hole 13a when the cap 13 is attached to the upper end of the support 11, and protrudes upward. The upper surface of the inner peripheral protrusion 13c is flat and located above the abutment protrusion 13b. The support 11 does not necessarily have to be rectangular; for example, a cylindrical pillar may be used.

[0012] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 7, the beam 12 is an extruded member formed from a metal such as an aluminum alloy and has a rectangular cylindrical cross section. As is apparent from FIG. 4, in this embodiment, the beam 12 includes left and right side walls 12a, 12b extending substantially parallel to each other, a bottom wall 12c connecting the lower edges of the side walls 12a, 12b, and an upper wall 12d connecting the upper edges of the side walls 12a, 12b. The bottom wall 12c is substantially perpendicular to the side walls 12a, 12b, while the upper wall 12d is gradually inclined downward from the rear side wall 12a to the front side wall 12b. The beams 12 are installed between the upper ends of the columns 11 with the bottom walls 12c extending substantially horizontally and the upper surfaces of the upper walls 12d positioned on the same inclined plane.

[0013] As shown in Fig. 5, at the connecting portion between the support 11 and the beam 12, a reinforcing member 14 is provided inside each tube. The reinforcing member 14 has a vertical portion 14a connected to the support 11 and a horizontal portion 14b connected to the beam 12, and is integrally formed from, for example, steel. On the upper surface of the vertical portion 14a, a mounting seat 14c is provided in a portion that corresponds to the mounting hole 13a of the cap 13. The upper surface of the mounting seat 14c is provided so as to be at approximately the same height as the upper surface 13g of the cap 13 attached to the support 11.

[0014] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 7 , the roof structure 20 is constructed by providing a plurality of rafters 25 and a plurality of panels 26 inside a rectangular frame 24 formed by assembling a rear frame 21, a front frame 22, and left and right side frames (frame members) 23 around all four sides. The rafters 25 are installed between the rear frame 21 and the front frame 22 along the side frames 23, and the panels 26 extend from the rear frame 21 to the front frame 22 between the side frames 23 and the rafters 25 and between the rafters 25. The roof structure 20 of this embodiment is supported by the supports 11 of the frames 10A and 10B via the side frames 23 in a state in which the front frame 22 is inclined below the rear frame 21. The abutment surfaces 13e and 13f of the abutment projections 13b and the upper surfaces of the beams 12 are configured so that their respective inclination angles are approximately the same as the inclination angle of the roof structure 20.

[0015] The rear frame 21, front frame 22, and side frame 23 are each extruded members formed from a metal such as an aluminum alloy. More specifically, the rear frame 21, front frame 22, and side frame 23 each have an irregular cross-sectional shape with flat bottom wall portions 21a, 22a, and 23a, respectively, and connecting fin portions 21b, 22b, and 23b at the lower edges of their inner peripheral portions. The connecting fin portions 21b, 22b, and 23b are thin plates that protrude inward along the bottom wall portions 21a, 22a, and 23a. The rear frame 21 has a weatherstripping material 27 attached to the inner peripheral edge of its upper surface, and a rear edge insertion portion 21c provided on the outer peripheral side of the weatherstripping material 27. The front frame 22 has a front edge insertion portion 22c provided above its inner peripheral portion, and a gutter portion 22d provided on its outer peripheral portion so as to open upward. A rain gutter 28 is connected to the gutter portion 22d at an appropriate position. A weatherstripping material 27 similar to that of the rear frame 21 is attached to the upper surface of the side frame 23, and a screw threading groove 23c is provided on the outer circumferential side of the weatherstripping material 27.

[0016] The side frame 23 is also provided with an upper step 23d and an inward peripheral wall (protruding portion) 23e. The upper step 23d is provided on an edge that is more outer than the bottom wall 23a, and is configured so that its lower surface is higher than the lower surface of the bottom wall 23a. The inward peripheral wall 23e is provided on a lower portion of the outer surface of the side frame 23, and is gradually inclined downward toward the inner periphery. The lower edge of the inward peripheral wall 23e protrudes downward beyond the lower surface of the upper step 23d, thereby functioning as a drain. In other words, water such as rainwater that runs down the outer periphery of the side frame 23 drips downward from the lower edge of the inward peripheral wall 23e and does not run down the bottom wall 23a and infiltrate the inner periphery.

[0017] The frame body 24, which is composed of the rear frame 21, front frame 22, and side frames 23, is supported on the support columns 11 via the reinforcing members 14 by interposing a bracket 30 between the mounting seat 14c of the reinforcing member 14 and the connecting fin portions 23b of the side frames 23. The bracket 30 has a frame material mounting portion 30b and a support mounting portion 30c that extend in different directions from both edges of a flat connecting portion 30a. The frame material mounting portion 30b and the support mounting portion 30c are each flat. Although not shown in the figure, the connecting portion 30a is trapezoidal in shape, with the portion located on the rear frame 21 side being higher than the portion located on the front frame 22 side, and the frame material mounting portion 30b is inclined so that the front frame 22 side is lower than the support mounting portion 30c.

[0018] 9, the bracket 30 described above is attached to the support column 11 via the reinforcing member 14 by overlapping the support member attachment portion 30c with the attachment seat 14c of the reinforcing member 14 through the attachment hole 13a of the cap 13 and screwing the screw member S1 into the attachment seat 14c via the support member attachment portion 30c. The frame body 24 is supported by the support column 11 via the bracket 30 and the reinforcing member 14 with the side frame 23 overlapping above the support column 11 by overlapping the connecting fin portion 23b of the side frame 23 with the frame member attachment portion 30b of the bracket 30 attached to the support column 11 and screwing the screw member S2 into the frame member attachment portion 30b via the connecting fin portion 23b.

[0019] As described above, as shown in FIG. 6, the bracket 30 has a connecting portion 30a between the frame material mounting portion 30b, which is attached to the side frame 23 via the connecting fin portion 23b, and the support mounting portion 30c, which is attached to the mounting seat 14c. The upper surface of the mounting seat 14c is approximately flush with the upper surface 13g of the cap 13 attached to the support 11. Therefore, the frame body 24 is supported on the support 11 with a gap d secured between the frame body 24 and the upper surface 13g of the cap 13. This makes it possible to align the screw 30d (see FIG. 9) of the bracket 30 with the screw insertion hole (not shown) of the side frame 23 by appropriately adjusting the amount of the gap d, for example, by changing the posture of the side frame 23, even if there is a processing error or assembly error. This facilitates the operation of threading the screw member S2 into the screw 30d of the bracket 30 through the screw insertion hole of the side frame 23. Moreover, after the screw member S2 is screwed in, the abutment surface 13e of the abutment protrusion 13b provided on the cap 13 abuts against the bottom wall portion 23a at a portion that is closer to the outer periphery than the connecting fin portion 23b of the side frame 23. Therefore, there is no risk of the side frame 23 being displaced so as to tilt outward with the connecting fin portion 23b, which is the connecting point with the bracket 30, as the fulcrum, and the side frame 23 can be supported stably relative to the support column 11.

[0020] On the other hand, as shown in Figures 1 to 7, the rafters 25 provided on the frame 24 are extruded members made of a metal such as an aluminum alloy, and are configured to have a rectangular tubular cross section. The longitudinal dimension of the rafters 25 is formed to a length that allows one end to be placed on the connecting fin portion 21b of the rear frame 21 while the other end can be placed on the connecting fin portion 22b of the front frame 22. Each rafter 25 has a tensioning material 27 attached to both side edges of its upper surface and a screw groove 25a formed in its center. Mounting fins 25b are provided on both lower edges of the rafters 25. The mounting fins 25b are thin plates that protrude outward along the underside of the rafters 25. The above-mentioned rafter 25 is installed between the rear frame 21 and the front frame 22 in a state parallel to the side frame 23 by abutting the mounting fin portion 25b against the upper surface of the beam 12 and screwing the screw member S3 into the beam 12 via the mounting fin portion 25b. The height of the tension material 27 of the rafter 25 attached to the upper surface of the beam 12 is approximately the same as the tension material 27 of the side frame 23.

[0021] The panels 26 are formed from resin into thin plates, and have a width extending between the side frames 23 and the rafters 25 or between the rafters 25, and a length extending from the rear frame 21 to the front frame 22. One end of each panel 26 is inserted into the rear edge insertion portion 21c of the rear frame 21, and the other end is inserted into the front edge insertion portion 22c of the front frame 22, with both side edges positioned on the upper surfaces of the side frames 23 and the rafters 25. A single panel retainer 31 is attached to the upper surface of the side frame 23, and a double panel retainer 32 is attached to the upper surface of each rafter 25. The single panel retainer 31 and the double panel retainer 32 are extruded shapes formed from metal such as aluminum alloy. The single panel retainer 31 extends the entire length of the side frame 23 and is provided with a tension material 31a on the underside of one side edge. This one panel holder 31 clamps the edge of the panel 26 between itself and the tension material 27 by screwing a screw member S4 into the threaded groove 23c of the side frame 23 via the other edge. Both panel holders 32 have a length that runs the entire length of the rafter 25, and are each equipped with tension material 32a on the underside of the edge on both sides. Both panel holders 32 clamp the edge of the panel 26 between itself and the tension material 27 of the rafter 25 by screwing a screw member S5 into the threaded groove 25a of the rafter 25 via the center.

[0022] As shown in Figures 5 to 7, a spacer 40 and a buffer material 50 are disposed between the panel 26 and the beam 12. The spacer 40 includes an upper spacer member 41 and a lower spacer member 42. The upper spacer member 41 is an extruded member formed from a metal such as an aluminum alloy, and has a length extending between the side frame 23 and the rafters 25 and between the rafters 25. In this embodiment, the upper spacer member 41 includes a spacer main body 41a and overlapping fin portions 41b. The spacer main body 41a has a cylindrical shape with a rectangular cross section. The upper surface of the spacer main body 41a has protrusions 41c on both edge portions. The overlapping fin portions 41b protrude rearward from the lower corners on the rear side of the spacer main body 41a along the underside. The lower spacer member 42 includes side plate portions 42b extending perpendicularly from both edge portions of a rectangular base portion 42a. The base plate 42a has screw insertion holes 42c at both corners of one edge. The side plate portions 42b extend in the same direction from the base plate 42a. One of the side plate portions 42b has positioning protrusions 42d at both ends of the extended edge. The positioning protrusions 42d are inserted into positioning holes 12e on the top surface of the beam 12 to determine the installation position of the lower spacer member 42 along the longitudinal direction of the beam 12. The height dimension of the lower spacer member 42 is set so that when the positioning protrusions 42d are inserted into the positioning holes 12e and the other side plate portion 42b is abutted against the top surface of the beam 12, the top surface of the base plate 42a is positioned above the heads of the screw members S2 threaded into the connecting fin portions 23b of the side frame 23 and the screw members S3 threaded into the mounting fin portions 25b of the rafters 25.

[0023] The upper spacer member 41 and the lower spacer member 42 are arranged between the side frame 23 and the rafters 25 and between the rafters 25 by inserting the positioning protrusions 42d of the lower spacer member 42 into the positioning holes 12e of the beam 12 and screwing the screw members S6 into the beam 12 via the overlapping fin portions 41b and the screw insertion holes 42c. The height of the upper spacer member 41 is set so that it does not come into contact with the underside of the panel 26. The buffer material 50 is made of an elastic material such as rubber and has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and is disposed on the top surface of the upper spacer member 41 in the middle along the longitudinal direction. The thickness of the buffer material 50 is set so that it can abut against both the top surface of the upper spacer member 41 and the panel 26 when placed between them. As a result, the panel 26 is supported on the beam 12 via the spacer 40 and the cushioning material 50, and is arranged between the side frame 23 and the rafter 25 and between the rafters 25 in a curved state so that the middle part in the width direction is convex upward.

[0024] In a carport constructed as described above, each panel 26 is supported by the beams 12 at two points along its length via the spacers 40 and the buffer materials 50, and the central portion is curved so that it is convex. This provides strength advantages, eliminating the risk of problems such as the panel 26 bending downward under its own weight or falling off the frame 24. Furthermore, because the spacers 40 and the buffer materials 50 are disposed on the upper surfaces of the beams 12, they are difficult to see when viewed from below. In other words, when viewed from below, only the beams 12 are visible below the panel 26, which is preferable in terms of appearance quality.

[0025] However, in the above-described carport, it is possible to add an appropriate number (one or more) of center rails 60 between the side frames 23 and the rafters 25 and between the rafters 25. That is, as shown in FIG. 4 , center rails 60 having a rectangular cross section formed from a metal such as an aluminum alloy are used, and mounting screws S7 are threaded into the bottom wall portions of the center rail 60 via the connecting fin portions 23b of the side frames 23 and the mounting fin portions 25b of the rafters 25. This allows appropriate locations between the side frames 23 and the rafters 25 and between the rafters 25 to be connected via the center rail 60, thereby improving the support strength of the panels 26. In this case, if the center rails 60 have a cross-sectional shape similar to the spacer bodies 41a of the upper spacer members 41 and multiple center rails 60, including the spacers 40, are arranged at equal intervals, the spacers 40 and the center rails 60 will be considered the same, which is advantageous in terms of appearance quality. In addition, if a buffer material 50 is provided between the upper surface of the middle rail 60 and the panel 26, the support strength of the panel 26 can be further increased.

[0026] Furthermore, with regard to the spacer 40, neither the upper spacer member 41 nor the lower spacer member 42 is configured to be connected to the side frames 23 and the rafters 25, so there is no need to use side frames 23 or rafters 25 with special cross-sectional shapes to connect them to the spacer 40, and there is no need for connectors to attach the spacer 40. This eliminates concerns about increased manufacturing costs and an increased number of parts.

[0027] Although the above-described embodiment illustrates a carport, the present invention can also be applied to other outdoor structures. In this case, it is not necessary to have two frames 10A, 10B. Furthermore, the roof structure 20 does not necessarily need to be supported on the posts 11 via the side frames 23; for example, the side frames 23 may be supported on the beams 12. Furthermore, the bracket 30 used has a frame material mounting portion 30b and a support mounting portion 30c on both sides of the connecting portion 30a, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a substantially L-shaped bracket having a frame material mounting portion 30b and a support mounting portion 30c may also be used.

[0028] Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the cap 13 attached to the support 11 is provided with the abutment protrusion 13b, which is the abutment portion, but the abutment portion may be provided on the roof body 20 side, or it is also possible to provide abutment portions on both the roof body 20 and the roof support. In the above-described embodiment, when providing abutment portions on the cap 13, abutment portions with different inclination directions are provided on either side of the ridge line 13d, so that a common cap 13 can be used for both the left and right support columns 11, but the present invention is not limited to this.

[0029] As described above, the outdoor structure of the present invention is an outdoor structure comprising a roof body with a frame material around it, and the roof body is supported on the roof support via brackets with the frame material overlapping above the roof support, and the brackets are attached to the inner periphery of the frame material, and at least one of the frame material and the roof support is provided with an abutment portion that abuts the other on the outer periphery side of the mounting position of the bracket. According to this invention, the outer peripheral portions of the frame and roof support abut against each other by the abutment. This makes it possible to adjust the gap on the inner peripheral side, making it easier to install the bracket, and also makes it possible to prevent the frame from shifting outward after installation.

[0030] The present invention is also characterized in that, in the above-mentioned outdoor structure, the roof support has a cylindrical pillar and a cap attached to close the upper end opening of the pillar, and supports the roof body with the frame material overlapping above the cap, and the abutment portion is provided between the cap and the frame material. According to this invention, since it is not necessary to directly provide abutment portions on the frame material or the support pillars, there is no risk of the work of manufacturing these frame material or support pillars becoming complicated.

[0031] The present invention is also characterized in that, in the above-mentioned outdoor structure, the bracket has a frame material mounting portion that is attached to the frame material, a support mounting portion that is attached to the roof support, and a connecting portion that connects the frame material mounting portion and the support mounting portion at different heights. According to this invention, the connecting portion of the bracket can ensure a gap between the frame material and the roof support body.

[0032] The present invention is also characterized in that, in the above-mentioned outdoor structure, the roof support has a cylindrical support and a cap attached to close the upper end opening of the support, and supports the roof body with the frame material overlapping above the cap, and a reinforcing material is provided inside the support, and the frame material has a connecting fin portion protruding toward the inner periphery, and the bracket is connected to the underside of the connecting fin portion at the frame material mounting portion and to the upper surface of the reinforcing material at the support mounting portion. According to this invention, the roof body is supported on the support columns via the reinforcing members and brackets.

[0033] Furthermore, the present invention is characterized in that, in the outdoor structure described above, a protrusion that protrudes downward is provided on the underside of the frame material, closer to the outer periphery than the abutment portion. According to this invention, there is no risk of water such as rainwater entering the inner periphery by running down the underside of the frame material.

[0034] The present invention is also characterized in that, in the above-mentioned outdoor structure, the roof body is supported on the supports with the frame material inclined, and the upper surface of the cap is provided with the abutment portion which protrudes upward and whose upper surface is inclined along the inclination of the frame material. According to this invention, by contacting the contact portion provided on the cap, it is possible to prevent the frame material from being displaced toward the outer periphery.

[0035] Furthermore, in the above-described outdoor structure, the present invention is characterized in that the abutment portion slopes downward on both sides from a portion that divides the dimension along the longitudinal direction of the frame material into two equal parts. According to this invention, a common cap can be used for both the left and right support columns. [Explanation of symbols]
