| 27 | Daylight harvesting shelf and method of improving interior natural light | US13892735 | 2013-05-13 | US08885255B2 | 2014-11-11 | Isamu James Yokota |
| A method and device for improving natural lighting within buildings is provided. The device comprises a controllable shelf having an upper, specular reflective surface for directing natural light into interior spaces and against interior ceilings. The shelves can be static or pivotable to redirect light based on the day and time of year. The pivotable shelf can be rotated downward or upwards to change the angle with which the light is reflected into the adjacent window, while its position is below the window and along the exterior of the building. This improves interior natural lighting and reduces electrical lighting costs using either a static shelf or movable shelf, wherein the assembly is deployable in a commercial or residential environment without blocking any naturally entering light through the window itself. | ||||||

| Described are a cooperating solar energy collector panel and an energy converter, at least one of which is adapted to fit within a window opening. Preferably, the solar collector panel and/or energy converter are movable into or within the window opening to allow for the window to still be able to open to let in fresh air, or be free from obstruction to permit entry of light or a view to the outdoors when the solar collector panel and/or energy converter are not in use. In one version, the solar collector panel is adapted to be remote from the window opening, for example, on the top of an awning above the window opening. The bottom of the awning in this case may be adapted to contain an energy converter which may be moved into the window opening to distribute heat into a building. | ||||||

| 34 | HEAT AND WIND SCREEN FOR THE BUILDING INDUSTRY | US12524280 | 2007-01-23 | US20110030286A1 | 2011-02-10 | Jacques Pigerre |
| The “heat- and wind-screen for the building industry” is an original and economical concept that increases comfort inside buildings subject to strong solar radiation. It comprises cladding the roof and/or the walls with perforated metal sheets and using spacers having an original design and disposition. The investment is low due to the proposed mounting mode and the low cost of the materials used. Savings can then be achieved by reducing the energy consumption for the air-conditioning of the building. The structure of the “heat- and wind screen for the building industry” induces important load losses for the winds on their path about the building and the building it covers exhibits a better resistance to strong winds. The “description” section successively contains the description of the device, the physical properties used, the performance measured on a model and an experimental house, a mounting technique, and a proposal for modelling the action of winds in order to justify the care to be taken when finishing the mounting of ridge tiles. | ||||||

| An observation shelter includes a plurality of generally upright walls including a first wall having a first window opening positioned therein and a second wall having a second wall positioned therein. First and second shutters are movable between respective raised and closed positions. The first and second shutters have respective shapes configured such that the shutters when in their respective raised positions meet at a joint extending from said corner to provide substantially continuous shelter from the sun for the first window opening and second window opening, and wherein with the first and second shutters in their respective closed positions, an extension portion of the first shutter is received in a pocket portion of the second shutter. | ||||||
| 36 | Method and device for producing composite elements and composite element | US10558332 | 2004-05-15 | US20070154705A1 | 2007-07-05 | Christoph Doeppner; Rolf Schneider |
| The aim of the invention is to produce composite elements comprising two glass panes (20, 21) with at least one insert (22), which is placed therebetween and whose surface is not complete with regard to the outer elements, e.g. its surface is perforated, and with at least one transparent, thermoplastic film layer (23). To this end, the composite element prepared in such a manner is placed inside a room from which air can be evacuated and is placed under compacting pressure. By increasing the temperature to a softening point of the film layer, the insert is joined to both glass panes by pressing, during which gases are forced out of the holes, recesses, etc. in the insert and are filled with the film material. This results in a bubble-free, optionally reinforced composite glass element that has an interesting appearance while also being provided with additional functions. | ||||||

| The present invention provides for an improved method of fabricating trusses. The improved trusses are made from elongated, tubular members forming the chords and/or webs. A metal connector plate is used to connect the chords and webs to form the truss. Further, modifications of the connector plates are used to facilitate the connection of trusses into truss assemblies. Additionally, other modifications of the connector plates are used to facilitate the connection of the trusses to the supporting structure. | ||||||
| 39 | Adjustable awning | US10421437 | 2003-04-23 | US20040211527A1 | 2004-10-28 | Sammye Humble |
| An adjustable support for an awning has first and second attachment points for mounting to a building structure on both sides of an opening, such as a door or window opening. Each of the attachment points receive a complimentary pivotable fastener, which can be locked into a fixed position. An elongate top rail is mounted on the building above the door or window opening, and supports an upper side of the awning. Two arms are connected by a cross bar that supports a lower side of the awning. Each of the two arms include the complimentary pivotable fastener on one end for engaging the attachment points. As such, the awning is positionable in a plurality of angles relative to the building structure by pivoting the fasteners in the attachment points and locking the fasteners at the desired position. | ||||||
| 40 | Roof seismic motion-absorbing gap cover | US09883517 | 2001-06-18 | US06675539B2 | 2004-01-13 | Thomas A. Shreiner |
| A seismic roof motion-absorbing gap cover assembly includes an elongated y-axis slideway affixed to a building unit B on one side of the gap and extending parallel to the gap and a y-axis slider slidably received on the y-axis slideway. Roof support members are secured to the y-axis slider in spaced apart relation against horizontal movements. A roof having one end affixed to a building unit A on the other side of the gap spans the gap and is supported on the roof support members by elongated spaced-apart x-axis slide members for movement along an x-axis perpendicular to the gap. Each x-axis slide member has a length such that it is supported by the roof support member throughout a range of displacements in the x-axis direction of the building units between maximum and minimum design displacements in an earthquake from a neutral position. | ||||||
