Embodiments of the invention provide a skylight assembly for an enclosure having an enclosure panel with an opening. The skylight assembly includes a lens, a gasket, and a nut. The lens includes an annular lens flange and a lens stem extending axially away from the annular lens flange. The gasket is receivable around the threaded lens stem and is adapted to be seated on the lens flange. The nut includes an annular nut flange and nut stem extending axially away from the nut flange. The nut stem is configured to engage the lens stem to secure the skylight assembly to the enclosure panel and compress the gasket against the enclosure panel.

Load support structures for mounting a load atop a raised rib metal panel roof make use of relatively small, inexpensive, and easy-to-make adapter plugs as interfaces between the raised ribs and one or more component pieces or members of the load support structure, such as an upper diverter or a lower closure member. The adapter plug has an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface having an inner profile substantially matching or conforming to some or all of the profile of a particular style of rib profile. The outer surface of the adapter plug has a standardized shape, some or all of which is made to conform to an upper diverter, lower closure, and/or other component member of the load support structure.

The invention relates to covering a gap between windows at the ridge of a double pitch skylight including at least one pair of windows. Each window comprises a frame with a frame top member and the windows of a pair are interconnected by one or more mounting brackets at the ridge. A cover element is arranged so that it interconnects the two windows of the pair on the interior side and extends in parallel with the ridge length direction. One edge of the cover element is inserted in a groove in the top frame member of one window of the pair and another opposite edge is inserted in a corresponding groove in the other window. The cover element is preferably made from an airtight material, is preferably convex on the interior side in the mounted state, and is preferably provided with elastic connecting parts at the two opposite edges.

The invention provides a system for installing a load on a metal panel roof, the system comprising a rail and closure structure adapted to be supported by ribs defined by the roof panels, and a load adapted to be supported on the rail and closure structure. In some embodiments, standing seams on ribs, and side rails on the rail and closure structure, extend parallel to each other, and optionally parallel to opposing sides of a hole in the roof. In some embodiments, substantially all of a downwardly-directed force of the load passes downwardly through the rail and closure structure to the ribs, and from the ribs to underlying structural members of the building.

An underroof collar for use in water-proofing the joint between a roof structure and a window frame is disclosed. It includes a plurality of collar members adapted for extending along frame member of the window frame, and each collar member includes an inner rim part and an outer skirt part intended for coming into engagement with the roof structure. The underroof collar is provided with at least one first engagement zone for positioning the underroof collar by bringing the first engagement zone into contact with a second engagement zone on another object, said first engagement zone being exposed in a packed state of the underroof collar. The first engagement zone may include a fastener and/or a cover layer. A packed underroof collar and a method for providing an underroof collar is also disclosed.

This disclosure relates to a louvered patio cover. The louvered patio cover may comprise a frame with support beams, louvered panels, support beam couplers, an actuator, a gutter, and/or other components. The support beams may have angled ends. The louvered panels may be rotatably coupled to the support beams. A support beam coupler may comprise first and second receivers. The first receiver may be configured to receive an angled end of a first support beam, and the second receiver may be configured to receive an angled end of a second support beam. The angled ends of the first and second support beams may face, meet, and/or abut each other when received by the first and second receivers. The actuator may be configured to rotate the louvered panels. A gutter may comprise a lighting channel configured to hold a light source for lighting an area under the louvered patio cover.

A ventilated skylight for a shed enclosure. The ventilated skylight formed from a base member securable to the roof of a residential shed. The base member has a flange for receipt of a gasket for securement directly to the shed roof. Upright walls of the base member include a plurality of slots constructed and arranged to allow air to circulate through the shed. A cap member is securable to the base member with side walls to prevent rain water from entering the vertical slots. In a preferred embodiment, the cap member is made of a translucent material to allow light to illuminate the inside of the shed enclosure.

According to the invention, a skylight including a frame is disclosed. The skylight may include a frame. The frame may include a vertical curb and horizontal flashing integral with, and extending away from, a bottom of each exterior side of the vertical curb. The frame may also include a first vertical member extending upward from the horizontal flashing which extends from a first exterior side of the vertical curb, and a second vertical member extending upward from the horizontal flashing which extends from a second exterior side of the vertical curb, where the second exterior side is opposite the first exterior side. The frame may further include a first horizontal member extending from the first vertical member, and away from the vertical curb, as well as a second horizontal member extending from the second vertical member, and away from the vertical curb.

The invention provides a system for installing a load on a metal panel roof, the system comprising a rail and closure structure adapted to be supported by ribs defined by the roof panels, and a load adapted to be supported on the rail and closure structure. In some embodiments, standing seams on ribs, and side rails on the rail and closure structure, extend parallel to each other, and optionally parallel to opposing sides of a hole in the roof. In some embodiments, substantially all of a downwardly-directed force of the load passes downwardly through the rail and closure structure to the ribs, and from the ribs to underlying structural members of the building.
