Title:
ROOF SNOW REMOVAL DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2015105567
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a roof snow removal device that reduces facilities and maintenance and management processes, mitigates heavy labor of roof snow removal, reduces risks of falling from a roof and others, and prevents a house from collapsing.SOLUTION: A roof is covered entirely by a polycarbonate plate 3 that incorporates rods 11 lined up in a vertical direction. A polycarbonate hollow plate 6, connected to an iron plate 4 on the roof top with a spring 5, incorporates on the undersurface a combined member of rods 11 and aluminum pipes 7 in the horizontal direction, so as to make the hollow plate slide over the rods. A thin film-like mat 13 that encapsulates lubricant oil is fixed on the polycarbonate hollow plate, and a weatherproof sheet 12 connected to the iron plate with a spring at the edge is laid. The sheet slides on the slanted roof downward due to the weight and pressure of snow on the roof, which resist against the spring. A foot section supporting a snow dividing plate 8 on the roof top and a snow receiving shelf inclined at 45 to 50 degrees is formed like a ski, and the snow receiving shelf 9 and the ski 10 at the foot section is placed on both sides over a roof 1. The ski is moved by a change in the pressure brought about by snow that accumulates on and falls from the snow receiving shelf, and causes the snow on the roof to fall.
