[0007] Hereinafter, a simple building A according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the same reference numerals in different drawings indicate parts having the same functions, and duplicated descriptions in each drawing will be omitted as appropriate.

[0008] [Basic structure of a simple building] The simple building A is a carport, and as shown in Figures 1 to 3, has a suspension beam 2 erected on the top of an upright support 1, and a roof body B consisting of a left roof body 3 and a right roof body 4 is suspended from this suspension beam 2 via a suspension device 2a, with a lattice unit 5 attached to the bottom of roof body B and a side lattice unit 500 attached to the side of the support 1.

[0009] [Roof structure] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, roof body B has a left roof body 3 and a right roof body 4, each of which has an independent structure, and when installing, the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 can be attached while being aligned separately. In this type of roof body B, the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 can be attached separately, so that the installation work of the roof body B, which has a large area, can be easily carried out.

[0010] [Left roof structure] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the left roof body 3 has a translucent roof panel 32 installed across the left girder (hereinafter referred to as the "left girder") 30 and the right girder (hereinafter referred to as the "right girder") 31. Directly above the left girder 30 and the right girder 31, gables 300, 310 are attached over the entire front-to-back area, so that the side surfaces are approximately flush in the vertical direction, and the left girder 30 and gable 300 present a single entity, while the right girder 31 and gable 310 present a single entity. A furring strip 6 is attached to the underside of each of the left girder 30 and the right girder 31. In addition, furring strip auxiliary materials 7 are attached to the undersides of the furring strips 6. The furring strip auxiliary material 7 is used to attach a plurality of lattice materials 50 of the lattice unit 5, which will be described later. In the following description, the gable 300 attached to the left girder 30 will be referred to as the outer gable 300, and the gable 310 attached to the right girder 31 will be referred to as the inner gable 310.

[0011] [Right roof structure] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the right roof body 4 has a translucent roof panel 42 installed across the right girder (hereinafter referred to as the "right girder") 40 and the left girder (hereinafter referred to as the "left girder") 41. Gables 400, 410 are attached to the right girder 40 and the left girder 41 over the entire front-to-back area, so that the side surfaces are approximately flush in the vertical direction, and the right girder 40 and the gable 400 present a single body, while the left girder 41 and the gable 410 present a single body. A furring strip 6 is attached to the underside of each of the right girder 40 and the left girder 41. In addition, furring strip auxiliary materials 7 are attached to the undersides of the furring strips 6. The furring strip auxiliary material 7 is used to attach a plurality of lattice materials 50 of the lattice unit 5, which will be described later. In the following description, the gable 400 attached to the right girder 40 will be referred to as the outer gable 400, and the gable 410 attached to the left girder 41 will be referred to as the inner gable 410.

[0012] Please refer to FIGS. 1 to 4 here. A single continuous gable 8 is attached to the front and rear of the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4, stretching from the left girder 30 of the left roof body 3 to the right girder 40 of the right roof body 4, and is seamless so as to hide the front and rear ends of roof body B, the left girder 30 and right girder 31 of the left roof body 3, and the right girder 40 and left girder 41 of the right roof body 4.

[0013] [Furring strip configuration] The furring strips 6 extend along the front-rear direction of the left girders 30, 41 and the right girders 31, 40, and are fixed to the left girders 30, 41 and the right girders 31, 40 by screws, as shown in Figs. A downwardly open engaging portion 60 is recessed along the entire length of the furring strip 6 on the underside of the furring strip 6, and this engaging portion 60 is adapted to engage with an engaging portion 70 of the furring strip auxiliary material 7, which will be described later. In other words, since the engaging portion 60 is provided along the entire length of the furring strip 6, the furring strip auxiliary material 7 can be engaged with the furring strip 6 at any position in the longitudinal direction, so that the lattice unit 5 can be partially installed at an appropriate position under the roof.

[0014] [Composition of furring strip support material] The furring strip auxiliary material 7 runs along the front-to-rear direction of the furring strip 6, and as shown in Figure 9, the aforementioned engaging portion 70 protrudes from the upper part. The engaging portion 70 engages with the engaged portion 60, and the furring strip auxiliary material 7 is fixed to the underside of the furring strip 6 by screwing it in place. The engagement of the engaging portion 70 of the furring strip auxiliary material 7 with the engaged portion 60 of the furring strip 6 is achieved by inserting the hook-shaped engaging portion 70 from below the engaged portion 60 and hooking it onto the engaged portion 60 from above, and in this state the furring strip auxiliary material 7 is locked onto the furring strip 6. In other words, since the furring strip auxiliary material 7 is engaged with the furring strip 6, the screw fastening operation can be performed without supporting the furring strip auxiliary material 7, so that the operation of fixing the furring strip auxiliary material 7 to the furring strip 6 can be performed easily and quickly.

[0015] [Structure of lattice units] The lattice unit 5 is constructed by connecting multiple lattice materials 50 as described above, and as shown in Figures 7 and 8, it has one lattice body (hereinafter referred to as the "under-roof lattice body") 5a having multiple lattice materials 50 and another lattice body (hereinafter referred to as the "extended lattice body") 5b having multiple lattice materials 50. As shown in Figures 1 to 5, the lattice unit 5 is arranged so that in the front-to-back direction (parallel direction) a portion of the lattice material 50 of the extended lattice body 5b passes through and protrudes outside the roof body B further than the gable 8, and the longitudinal ends of the under-roof lattice body 5a and the extended lattice body 5b protrude outside the roof body B further than the left girder 30 (outer gable 300) and right girder 40 (outer gable 400). In addition, in the present invention, the configuration of the lattice unit 5 includes a configuration in which the lattice material 50 is passed through and protrudes only from the gable 8 side, or a configuration in which the lattice material 50 protrudes only from the left girder 30 and right girder 40 sides. The configuration of the lattice unit 5 also includes a configuration in which the lattice unit 5 protrudes from at least one of the front through gable 8, the rear through gable 8, the left girder 30, and the right girder 40 as necessary.

[0016] As shown in Figures 1 to 5, the under-roof lattice member 5a is located within the front-to-rear range of the roof body B, and is formed by arranging multiple lattice materials 50 in parallel at regular intervals in the front-to-rear direction and attaching and connecting them to the furring strip auxiliary material 7 by screwing.

[0017] As shown in Figures 5, 7 and 8, the extended lattice body 5b is formed by arranging a plurality of lattice materials 50 in parallel in the fore-and-aft direction at regular intervals and fixing them to connectors 9, with some of the lattice materials 50 arranged in parallel in the fore-and-aft direction as described above protruding outward from the roof body B beyond the through gable 8, and by connecting the connectors 9 to the under-roof lattice body 5a, the extended lattice body 5b is attached so as to be continuous with the under-roof lattice body 5a.

[0018] As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the connector 9 is a plate-like member formed into a flat U-shape, with the U-shaped recess serving as an engagement recess 90 into which the furring strip auxiliary material 7 fits, the convex pieces on both sides of the engagement recess 90 serving as fixing portions 91 for fixing to the lattice material 50 of the roof under-roof lattice body 5a, and the front portion serving as an attachment portion 92 for attaching the lattice material 50 of the extension lattice body 5b. The connector 9 is configured so that, with the fixing portion 91 fixed to the lattice material 50 of the under-roof lattice body 5a, the mounting portion 92 protrudes outside the roof body B beyond the through gable 8.

[0019] In the mounting structure of the extension grid body 5b using such connectors 9, the grid material 50 of the extension grid body 5b is fixed to the underside of the mounting portion 92 of the connector 9 by means of screws. The mounting portions 92 have screw holes set so that the spacing between the mounted lattice materials 50 is the same as the spacing between the under-roof lattice members 5a which are mounted at regular intervals. Next, the furring strip auxiliary material 7 is fitted into the fitting recess 90 of the connecting device 9 to which the lattice material 50 of the extension lattice body 5b is fixed, and the fixing portion 91 is placed on the upper surface of the lattice material 50 of the under-roof lattice body 5a, and the fixing portion 91 is fixed to the lattice material 50 by screwing. As a result, the furring strip auxiliary material 7 and the connector 9 are attached to the undersides of the left girders 30, 41 and the right girders 31, 40 in a state where they are overlapped in the row installation direction of the lattice material 50 at the adjacent positions of the under-roof lattice body 5a and the extension lattice body 5b.

[0020] Such a connector 9 allows a portion of the lattice material 50 of the extended lattice body 5b to protrude outside the roof body B beyond the through gable 8, and also allows the lattice materials 50 of the under-roof lattice body 5a and the lattice materials 50 of the extended lattice body 5b to be attached at the same intervals. Furthermore, since the connector 9 is positioned above the lattice material 50, the connector 9 can be made less noticeable by the lattice material 50 when viewed from below. The connectors 9 are attached to the areas where all of the furring strip auxiliary materials (4 places) 7 are located, ensuring the installation of the extension grid body 5b. In addition, the extension lattice member 5b equipped with the connector 9 can be retrofitted to the under-roof lattice member 5a of an existing temporary building A that does not have the extension lattice member 5b. In addition, by making the front-to-rear length of the mounting portion 92 of the connector 9 longer and increasing the number of lattice materials 50 of the extension lattice body 5b, the amount of protrusion of the extension lattice body 5b can be increased, thereby making it possible to more effectively suppress the exposure to sunlight from diagonally above. In addition, since the connector 9 of the extension lattice body 5b is fixed to the under-roof lattice body 5a which is fixed to the furring strip auxiliary material 7 which is fixed to the furring strip 6, it is indirectly fixed to the furring strip 6. As a result, even if a load due to snow accumulation or the like is applied to the extension lattice body 5b, the load is received by the furring strip 6, thereby preventing damage to the extension lattice body 5b due to the load.

[0021] [Structure of the through gable] As described above (see Figures 1 and 4), the through gable 8 extends from the left girder 30 of the left roof body 3 to the right girder 40 of the right roof body 4, and is seamless so as to hide the front and rear ends of the left girder 30 and right girder 31 of the left roof body 3, and the right girder 40 and left girder 41 of the right roof body 4. In addition, the installed through gable 8 is screwed to the outer gable 300 and inner gable 310 of the left roof body 3 and the outer gable 400 and inner gable 410 of the right roof body 4 via screwed angle iron 80, with the end faces of the left girder 30 and right girder 31 of the left roof body 3 and the right girder 40 and left girder 41 of the right roof body 4 abutting each other. Such a through gable 8 is seamless and not only hides the front and rear ends of roof body B, the left girder 30 and right girder 31 of the left roof body 3, and the right girder 40 and left girder 41 of the right roof body 4, but also serves as a ruler for positioning the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 by abutting the left girder 30 and right girder 31 of the left roof body 3, and the right girder 40 and left girder 41 of the right roof body 4. In addition, since the continuous gable 8 is a single piece, the number of gables can be reduced compared to when the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 each have an independent gable, and end caps to hide the joint between the two gables are not required, so the number of parts can be reduced and the gable installation work can be completed quickly.

[0022] [Installation process of through gable] Next, the process of installing the through gable 8 will be described with reference to Figs. Step 1 (Figure 10): First, fix the angle iron 80 to the through gable 8, and in this state, screw the angle iron 80 to the sides of the outer gable 300 of the left roof body 3 and the outer gable 400 of the right roof body 4. At this time, by abutting the left girder 30 and right girder 31 of the left roof body 3 and the right girder 40 and left girder 41 of the right roof body 4 against the through gable 8, the positions of the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 are on the same plane in the left-right direction. Second step (FIG. 11): Next, the angle iron 80 is screwed to the sides of the inner gable 310 of the left roof body 3 and the inner gable 410 of the right roof body 4. By installing the through gable 8 through this process, the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 can be positioned. The left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 positioned by the through gable 8 become roof body B integrated by the through gable 8, so that the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 can be installed normally by adjusting the position of roof body B while shifting this roof body B back and forth.

[0023] The simple building A having the above-mentioned configuration has the following advantages. 1: Since the lattice unit 5 having multiple lattice materials 50 is attached below the roof panels 32, 42, the amount of sunlight irradiated from the roof panels 32, 42 to the area under the roof can be reduced, and the necessary amount of sunlight can be ensured while suppressing the adverse effects of direct sunlight on the area under the roof. In addition, when looking upward from under the roof, the lattice unit 5 makes the roof panels 32, 42 less visible, and since the lattice unit 5 having a plurality of lattice members 50 arranged in parallel at regular intervals is the most noticeable, an improvement in design can be achieved.

[0024] 2: A portion of the lattice unit 5 in the front-to-back direction protrudes outside the roof body B beyond the gable 8, and a portion of the lattice unit 5 in the left-to-right direction protrudes outside the roof body B beyond the left beam 30 and the right beam 40. This reduces the amount of sunlight shining onto the underside of the roof from diagonally above the simple building A, and ensures the necessary amount of sunlight while suppressing the adverse effects of direct sunlight on the underside of the roof. In addition, the protruding parts of the lattice unit 5 are expected to improve the design.

[0025] 3. The connector 9 that connects the extended lattice body 5b, which is the protruding part of the lattice unit 5, is positioned above the under-roof lattice body 5a and the extended lattice body 5b. Therefore, when looking upward from under the roof, the under-roof lattice body 5a and the extended lattice body 5b make the connector 9 difficult to see, thereby improving the design.

[0026] 4: The left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 are positioned by the through gable 8, and the through gable 8 integrates the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 into roof body B, so the position of roof body B having the left roof body 3 and the right roof body 4 can be adjusted quickly and easily. In addition, the through gable 8 can seamlessly hide the front and rear ends of the left girder 30, right girder 31 of the left roof body 3 and the right girder 40, left girder 41 of the right roof body 4, which is expected to improve the design.

[0027] Therefore, it is possible to provide a simple building A that is easy to use and achieves the suppression of the adverse effects of sunlight on the area under the roof, the improvement of the construction workability of the roof body B, and the improvement of design.

[0028] The above describes in detail an embodiment of the simple building A according to the present invention with reference to the drawings, but the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and even if there are design changes that do not deviate from the gist of the present invention, they are included in the present invention.

[0029] Furthermore, the above-described embodiments can be combined by utilizing each other's technologies, so long as there are no particular contradictions or problems in the purpose, configuration, and the like. [Explanation of symbols]
