Abstract

A facade and/or light roof including a device for drainage, especially of inclined and roof glazing in post and beam construction, and including a seepage water gutter or seepage water groove within the beam section and post section, and at least one condensation gutter or condensation groove on the beam section, is characterized in that the condensation gutter or condensation groove of the beam section ( 2 ) is guided directly into the seepage water groove of the post section ( 1 ), and in that this region is sealed by a filling piece ( 25, 1025, 1250 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A system using post and beam construction especially of inclined and roof glazing which may be used in a facade of a building and/or a light roof; said system including: 
 at least one beam section, said beam section having a device for drainage including a seepage water gutter within the beam section;    at least one post section, said post section having a device for drainage including a water seepage gutter, wherein the water seepage gutter of the beam and post section are connected,    at least one condensation gutter within the beam section wherein the condensation gutter being routed directly into the seepage water groove of the post section such that the concentration gutter of the beam section and the seepage water groove of the post section are sealed by a filling piece, the filling piece being designed to prevent an exchange of air, yet permit the passage of condensation.    
   
   
       2 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the filling piece prevents an exchange of air, yet permits the passage of condensation.  
   
   
       3 . The system according to  claim 2 , wherein the filling piece is made of fibers.  
   
   
       4 . The system according to  claim 3 , wherein the fibers are aligned in the direction of flow.  
   
   
       5 . The system according to  claim 4 , characterized in that the fibers are chaotically intertwined or felted.  
   
   
       6 . The system according to  claim 5 , wherein the fibers are made of fiberglass or plastic, especially polyamide, and/or that the fibers are wood fibers.  
   
   
       7 . The system according to  claim 6 , wherein that the filling piece is located in a sealing adapter.  
   
   
       8 . The system according to  claim 7 , wherein the filling piece facing the pane is overlaid with an elastic sealing pad to support the pane.  
   
   
       9 . The system according to  claim 8 , wherein the facade and/or light roof is provided with a metal framework, the framework may be preferably provided with insulating glass panes, wherein 
 the metal framework has post sections and beam sections that are at an angle relative to the post sections;    the post sections and beam sections have sealing grooves for sealing strips on which the insulating glass panes may rest;    in addition, the post sections and beam sections have collection grooves for seepage water;    the bases of the sealing grooves for the sealing strips, and preferably the bases of the collection grooves for the seepage water of the beam sections, rest on the sealing grooves of the sealing strips of the post sections; the one-piece or multi-piece sealing strips of the post sections have a greater overall height than the sealing strips of the beam sections so that the sealing strips of the beam and post sections terminate at a common level; and    at least one or several of the sealing strips of the beam sections and/or of the post sections has a drainage channel, preferably, a condensation gutter.    
   
   
       10 . The system according to  claim 9 , wherein the condensation gutter is connected to the seepage water gutter of the post section, the filling piece being inserted as a filter insert into the connecting region.  
   
   
       11 . The system according to  claim 10 , wherein the condensation gutter is molded onto the sealing strip as a single piece.  
   
   
       12 . The system according to  claim 9 , wherein the condensation gutter of the sealing strip of the beam section extends directly or indirectly into the glass mounting region of the post section, and drains into gutters of the post section.  
   
   
       13 . The system according to  claim 12 , wherein drainage occurs into the condensation drainage gutters, seepage water drainage gutters or cavities of the post sections.  
   
   
       14 . The system according to  claim 9 , wherein the sealing groove is located above a cavity, or is integrated as one piece with this cavity.  
   
   
       15 . The system according to  claim 9 , wherein the condensation gutter has an angular, preferably, rectangular, U-shaped cross-section, or a round or prismatic cross-section.  
   
   
       16 . The system according to  claim 9 , wherein the facade and/or roof is provided with a metal framework, the frame work preferably be provided with insulating glass panes, wherein 
 the metal framework has post sections and beam sections which are at an angle to the post sections;    cover seals mounted on the post sections and beam sections; wherein the cover seals for the post sections and beam sections each have at least one sealing base and at least one glass mounting region, seepage water grooves in a pane rabbet; and a common separation level between the sealing base and the glass mounting region to allow a mutual notching of the cover seals, and an overlapping of the glass mounting regions of the beam sections on the sealing base of the post sections; wherein at least one glass mounting region of the cover seals of the beam sections is provided with at least one condensation gutter.    
   
   
       17 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the condensation gutter is molded onto the glass mounting region as a single piece.  
   
   
       18 . The system according to  claim 2 , wherein the condensation gutter has a groove base which is aligned with the separation level.  
   
   
       19 . The system according to  claim 16 , wherein a sealing adapter is located in the overlap region with the post cover seal, which adapter has a channel with a filter insert inserted to prevent an exchange of air between the seepage water region and the interior region, and which discharges the condensation fluid into the seepage water region.  
   
   
       20 . The system according to  claim 19 , characterized in that the sealing adapter and filter insert is designed as a single piece.
