Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a solar shading element, and more particularly to a solar shading element that is positioned along the exterior surface of a building. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, various solar radiation shading members have been proposed to block or attenuate light irradiating the exterior walls and windows of a building, prevent the exterior walls of the building from heating up, weaken the sunlight entering through the windows, and further improve the aesthetic appearance of the building. These solar radiation shading members also have a function of blocking the view from outside. Specifically, structures such as shading louvers and plate-shaped lattices are arranged along the exterior walls, and recently, there are also examples in which plant leaves are used, such as green curtains.

[0003] Conventional solar shading members are often arranged along relatively flat exterior walls, and no suitable solar shading members have been proposed for buildings with exterior walls that use many curved surfaces, for example. In addition, among solar shading members arranged in accordance with the position of windows, those with adjustable shading levels have a large-scale structure like shading louvers, and are not in general use.

[0004] Furthermore, when solar shading materials are placed along the exterior walls of a building, most of the structures are linear, which can easily make the building look dull and unattractive, which is another reason why such methods have not become more widespread. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a solar shading member that can be arranged to solve the above-mentioned problems in accordance with various shapes of exterior walls, can efficiently block sunlight, has a privacy function, and is aesthetically pleasing, and further, can adjust the amount of shading to correspond to windows, etc. [Means for solving the problem]

[Figure 10] 9 is a diagram for explaining another example of the drive unit used in the embodiment of FIG. 8. FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0014] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments. The present invention is characterized in that, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, a solar radiation shading member arranged along the outer surface of a building comprises a plurality of cup-shaped members 1 connected by linear members (W1, W2).

[0015] The cup-shaped member 1 used in the present invention is a cup-shaped member composed of a body 10 and a bottom 12 connected to the body, as shown in Fig. 1. A trumpet-shaped peripheral portion 11 that spreads outward is formed on the opening side (the opposite side to the bottom 12) as necessary. The body 10 is preferably cylindrical, but is not limited to this, and may also be formed into a square tube, a truncated cone, or a truncated pyramid.

[0016] When the cup-shaped member 1 is placed along the exterior wall of a building, by placing it so that the opening side (the side with the peripheral portion 11) faces outward, the shape changes depending on the viewing angle, making it possible to enhance the aesthetic appearance of the building. In addition, because the cup-shaped member 1 is thick, it is not possible to see through the cup-shaped member 1 unless viewed from a specific direction. For this reason, the cup-shaped member 1 also has excellent privacy properties. Furthermore, by changing the color or reflective properties on the outside and inside of the cup-shaped member, it is possible to create a more diverse exterior appearance.

[0017] The cup-shaped member 1 can be made of a resin material, but by using a metal material, it is possible to express a metallic color and luster, and to create a heavy-looking appearance. When using a metal material, a metal plate can be formed into a cup shape by using a spatula or press drawing. If necessary, the surface of the metallic cup-shaped member can be blackened or plated.

[0018] The cup-shaped member 1 itself heats up when blocking sunlight, but because the surface area of ​​the cup-shaped member is large, heat radiation is also efficient, preventing the cup-shaped member 1 itself from becoming too hot. As a result, heat radiation from the cup-shaped member 1 toward the wall surface is also suppressed, making it possible to further suppress the temperature rise of the exterior wall of the building.

[0019] An opening is formed in the bottom 12 of the cup-shaped member 1. The opening may have various shapes, such as a circular opening 30 shown in FIG. 3 or a crescent-shaped opening 31 shown in FIG. 4. The openings (30, 31) not only enhance the design of the cup-shaped member itself, but also function as ventilation holes, helping to prevent the cup-shaped member from being blown by wind and damaging the outer wall. If necessary, an opening other than a through hole, which will be described later, may be formed in a part of the body 10.

[0020] The body 10 of the cup-shaped member 1 is provided with through holes (20, 20', 21, 22, 22', 23) through which the linear members pass. As shown in Fig. 2, the linear member W1 (W2) is placed using the through holes 20 (20') and 22 (22'). The linear member and the cup-shaped member are firmly fixed to each other using welding or fastening parts.

[0021] Although it is possible to connect multiple cup-shaped components with at least one linear member, it is preferable to use at least two linear members to connect them, as shown in Figure 2, in order to prevent the linear member from twisting and the resulting change in angle of the cup-shaped component.

[0022] In addition, in order to maintain the position of the cup-shaped member more stably, it is also possible to use the through holes 21 and 23 to pass other linear members arranged in a direction perpendicular to the linear member W1 (W2) in Figure 2 through them. As the linear member, a metal wire or the like is suitably used.

[0023] Fig. 5 shows cup-shaped members arranged in a plane, and regions A and B correspond to these. In Fig. 5, the cup-shaped members are arranged using the handrail of a balcony of a building, but they can also be arranged in a plane along the exterior wall of a building. Moreover, because the cup-shaped members are arranged in a straight line along the linear member as shown in Fig. 2, the arrangement can be easily changed to follow the curved surface of the exterior wall, and the solar radiation shading member of the present invention can be applied to exterior walls of a wide variety of shapes.

[0024] Fig. 6 is a diagram illustrating the structure of the linear member W1 (W2) that holds the cup-shaped member 1. One linear member has support means (not shown) arranged on both ends to support the linear member. It is preferable to incorporate a mechanism for pulling the linear member W1 (W2) with a constant tension into this support means, but it is also possible to arrange tension adjustment means TB such as a turnbuckle midway along the linear member in Fig. 6 and adjust the tension of the linear member as necessary.

[0025] Furthermore, in order to prevent the cup-shaped member from being blown by the wind and coming into contact with the exterior wall, it is also possible to provide a fixing means 4 that fixes the linear member W1 (W2) to a predetermined position from the exterior wall. As shown in Fig. 7, the fixing means 4 is composed of a part that holds the linear members (W1, W2), an anchor part AC that is fixed to the exterior wall, and a part that connects the two. For example, the anchor part AC is placed and fixed in a hole opened in the wall surface, and the entire fixing means 4 is fixed to the exterior wall.

[0026] The linear member W1 (W2) may simply be disposed through the fixing means 4, but it is also possible to provide a screw-type fixing portion (40, 41) at the tip of the linear member, similar to the turnbuckle TB, and provide a tension adjustment function by adjusting the amount it is screwed into the fixing means 4.

[0027] FIG. 8 illustrates a mechanism for changing the angle of the cup-shaped member 1 of a solar shading member. There is a high need to change the amount of shading, particularly in solar shading members that are placed along windows. The cup-shaped member fixed to the linear member W1 (W2) rotates by appropriately rotating the linear member support means (H1-H4) that are placed on both ends of the linear member W1 (W2). To ensure that the cup-shaped member rotates, it is preferable to place two or more linear members parallel to each other, as shown in FIG. 2.

[0028] As a method of rotating the support means (H1 to H4), as shown in Fig. 9, gears can be formed on the outer periphery of the support means (H1 to H4) and rotated in the same direction via intermediate gears (H12, H23, H34). Naturally, a driving force is transmitted from a power source (not shown) such as a motor to one of the gears to rotate the support means. Instead of intermediate gears, it is also possible to use a chain that is stretched across the gears of the support means (H1 to H4).

[0029] It is also possible to provide a drive source that drives the supporting means (H1 to H4) independently, as shown in Fig. 10. Of course, the angles (θ1 to θ4) that change may be the same or different.

[0030] In Figures 9 and 10, two linear members (W1, W2) are rotated, but it is also possible to change the angle of the cup-shaped member by moving any one of the linear members. The upper and lower support means in Figure 8 can be controlled independently, but it is preferable that they move in the same manner in conjunction with each other. It goes without saying that the cup-shaped members are arranged at an interval such that they do not collide with each other even when the cup-shaped members 1 rotate. [Industrial Applicability]

[0031] As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a solar shading member that can be arranged in accordance with various shapes of exterior walls, that efficiently blocks sunlight, that also has a privacy function, and that is aesthetically pleasing. Furthermore, it is possible to provide a solar shading member that can adjust the amount of shading in accordance with windows, etc. [Explanation of symbols]
