摘要:
A gutter system has the portions thereof formed to permit the ends of sections thereof to be nested one within another for forming the elements of the gutter. A contour suitable for such nesting has a vertical fascia panel, a generally vertical outer panel, and a generally horizontal floor panel joining lower edges of fascia panel and the outer panel. An arcuate portion joins the lower end of the fascia panel to the floor panel. A lip is provided along the upper edge of the outer panel with the lip of a first length of gutter fitting around the lip of a second length and the arcuate portion between the fascia panel and the floor of the first length fitted around the arcuate portion joining the fascia panel and floor of the second length to provide nesting. Fold over tabs may be provided along the upper edge of the fascia panel and the lip to lock the ends of the two lengths together, or lock the end of a length of gutter to a corner unit, a down spout drop unit, or an end cap unit.

A form assembly for forming a sloped roof slab, an eave, and a peripheral beam in a monolithic structure and method for forming are provided. The eave portion of the form assembly is detachably attached to upright columns of a housing frame structure. A steel roof deck is used as the base of the form for the roof slab. The roof deck permanently binds to the poured concrete roof slab so the roof deck is never removed. As there are no large formwork, jacks or trusses that have to be removed after the formation of the roof slab, the method and apparatus saves time and money in forming the monolithic sloped roof slab and eave.

A form assembly for forming a roof slab, an eave, and a peripheral beam in a monolithic structure is provided. The form assembly is detachably attached to upright columns of a housing frame structure and includes an eave formwork and a peripheral formwork. The eave formwork is mounted on the upright columns while the peripheral formwork is disposed between columns to be coupled to the eave formwork. The peripheral beam is formed between the eave and the roof slab and encloses a portion of top beams of the housing frame structure.

A pivoting gutter assembly is disclosed, in which the gutter can be, during summer months, put into the horizontal collecting position to receive rainwater from the roof and to direct it to a down-spout. For the winter months and or maintenance, the gutters are swung-out to downwards vertical position below the roof cornice thus being protected from damage. The gutter system includes hangers attached to the roof, the hangers each having a bearing. A shaft is inserted into the bearing and the gutter is fixed to the shaft. The system provides for special hangers assuring the correct pitch of the gutters. Also, it contains a down-spout for location above a fixed downward collector for rainwater, thus permitting the gutters to be pivoted from horizontal to vertical position without the need to disconnect the down-spout. A wormgear and wormdrive are attached to the end of shaft, outside the house fascia; this drive permits to operate the gutter's position from the ground level by an extended bar and manually driven crank or by using electric motor's drive attached to worm and remote control, eliminating the need of a ladder to reach downward position particularly important for the gutters installed on the roof high above the ground such as high rise buildings.

A drain trough for recreational vehicles includes a base with two side walls upwardly extending therefrom to define a drain channel for receiving rain water and solid debris. The drain trough is slidably engageable with an existing awning track protruding from a wall of a recreational vehicle via a suspension rod. The suspension rod laterally extends from a top of one of the side walls of the drain trough. This same side wall has a support foot laterally extending proximate the base. The combination of the suspension rod and support foot dispose the drain trough in an upright, functional attitude in order to prevent damage to the vehicle by dripping and accumulating rainwater and debris. The drain trough optionally includes a splice for interconnecting two drain trough sections together, as well as an end cap for preventing rain and debris from exiting one end of the drain trough.

An end cap for an ornamental gutter comprising a top, a bottom, a front side, a rear side, an outside end wall, an inside interior wall and an inside end wall. The rear side of the end cap has a substantially smooth vertical surface and is provided with first and second areas. The front side of the end cap has an ornamental configuration corresponding to the ornamental configuration of an attached length of gutter and is also provided with first and second areas. The bottom and the top sides have substantially smooth horizontal surfaces and each are provided with first and second areas. The outside end wall has an ornamental configuration corresponding to the ornamental configuration of an attached length of gutter and is similar to the front side ornamental configuration of the end cap. The inside end wall has a substantially smooth vertical surface and the inside interior wall comprises three substantially vertically extending surfaces which end at the top side and include a bottom surface ending at the inside end wall. The inside interior wall has a surface configuration separate and distinct from the front side and the outside end wall. The end cap top, rear side, front side and bottom second areas rearwardly extend for positioning and securing to the ornamental gutters respective top, rear side, front side and bottom.

Wooden gutters are protected against the weather and their useful life extended by applying a flexible plastic liner along the trough of the gutter and closing the ends thereof with sealing caps. The liners and caps are tightly secured in place to prevent water from seeping in-between the liner and the wood gutter. The liner is of extruded, flexible plastic material contoured to fit snuggly within the gutter trough and is readily cut to a length corresponding to the length of the gutter. The end caps may be made of injection molded plastic parts formed with cooperating grooves to receive the ends of the liner, and connectors are provided to join adjacent sections of liners. Other components include corner joints, drain connectors and lifters to provide a pitch to the liner to ensure drainage.
摘要:
Gutter lengths having a semicircular cross-section and upwardly extending sides, with curled or similarly bent upper edges, and coupling elements having portions adapted for tightly engaging the ends of the gutter lengths, are assembled together to form a gutter structure. At least one of the coupling elements, designed to compensate for the thermal changes in the gutter length, is fitted with a downspout.

The prefabricated construction comprises a framework comprising a lower structure, an upper structure and vertical uprights interconnecting the structures. Each structure comprises a substantially rectangular frame which has at each corner a vertical corner member. The corner members are adapted to fit with the uprights and detachable means are provided for fixing and guiding the corner members and uprights.The upper and lower structures may be placed directly together with the component parts of the construction enclosed between these assembled structures for transporting the construction.
