A skylight shaft substrate is rendered internally reflected in several ways. To limit the formation of focal points that can lead to hot spots as light travels down the shaft, the shaft substrate is formed with dimples or longitudinal corrugations.

In a tubular skylight, a corrugated Aluminum sheet is formed with a hole that is pressed into a curb which is fastened over the turret of a roof-mounted skylight flashing. Roof tiles above the dome of the skylight are placed onto the sheet, while below the dome the sheet is placed over roof tiles and manually conformed thereto, owing to the corrugations. Any water that leaks past tiles above the dome will be directed by the sheet around the curb and down onto the tops of tiles that are below the dome, thereby providing a water seal for the skylight.

In a tubular skylight, an Aluminum sheet having corrugations that may be in a waffle pattern is formed with a hole that is pressed into a curb which is fastened over the turret of a roof-mounted skylight flashing. Roof tiles above the dome of the skylight are placed onto the sheet, while below the dome the sheet is placed over roof tiles and manually conformed thereto, owing to the corrugations. Any water that leaks past tiles above the dome will be directed by the sheet around the curb and down onto the tops of tiles that are below the dome, thereby providing a water seal for the skylight. Clips can be used to hold the lower edge of the sheet onto the tiles.

Various skylight connectors are disclosed. A sheet is integrally formed with tabs along opposed axial edges of the sheet, and the sheet can be bent into a tubular configuration with the tabs along one edge engaging tab holes along the other edge and vice-versa to hold the sheet in the tubular configuration. Also, a skylight dome fastener adaptor includes a hollow body, and ribs are formed on the outer surface to engage a hole in a skylight dome to impede rotation of the body in the hole when a fastener is disposed in the adaptor and threadably engaged with a dome flashing. Additionally, various quick connect zip ties and clips are disclosed for quickly and easily engaging components of a skylight assembly.

摘要:
A tube assembly of a tubular skylight is formed with upper and lower notches for respectively snappingly engaging tabs of upper and lower support rings to promote ease of installation. The upper support ring has a flange that overlaps the edge of a roof-mounted flashing such that the upper support ring rests on the flashing with the tube assembly suspended from the upper support ring. A transparent cover covers the tube assembly, and an upper seal is sandwiched between the top edge of the flashing, the cover, and the upper support ring to keep moisture and dust from entering the upper end of the skylight. Screws secure the flashing to the upper support ring, with spacers being disposed around the shanks of the screws between the heads of the screws and the flashing such that thermal expansion can be absorbed. On the lower end of the tube assembly, a dress ring supports a light diffuser, and the dress ring includes spring clips that snappingly engage receptacles on the lower support ring. Thus, the principal components are snapped together to assemble the skylight. A hollow lower seal is sandwiched between the tube assembly, diffuser plate, and dress ring such that only a single seal is required to seal the lower end of the skylight from moisture and dust.
