A roof flashing can include a bottom half and a top half. The two halves can each have a plate and a neck portion projecting away from the respective plate. The neck portions define portions of an aperture configured to encircle and seal against a post projecting away from a roof. At least part of the first neck portion can be slidably receivable in the second neck portion and the two portions can define a neck when the bottom half and the top half are engaged with one another.

Roof system

A roof system is provided. The roof system includes a roof body capable of forming a flat roof or a corrugated roof, where the roof body is provided on a roof pillar; a gutter system is provided at a valley position of the corrugated roof or on the flat roof; a skylight system is further provided at a pitched roof or a ridge of the corrugated roof or on the flat roof; and a pressure relief adjustment component is provided on the skylight system. According to the roof system, a plurality of roof modules are assembled into the roof body. Two adjacent ones of the roof modules are fixed by a connecting plate and a self-locking component when assembled. A plurality of reinforcing points work cooperatively, so the roof system achieves a high utilization rate, and ensures the overall stability and bearing capacity of the roof.

Roof drain overflow cover with sensor
12180711 · 2024-12-31 ·

The roof drain overflow cover with sensor cooperatively engages and covers a conventional roof drain cap cover to prevent trash from reaching and clogging the conventional roof basket cover and drain. Accumulating trash builds up on the screen of the overflow prevention device causing a doughnut shaped buoy connected to a trash tray to rise. The trash tray is retained to a base with magnets. When the water reaches a predetermined level, the doughnut shaped buoy rises pulling the trash tray away from the base allowing water to flow to the conventional roof drain basket and activating an overflow sensor and a control module. The control module is in communication with the water flow sensor and includes an indicator which is activated when the water flow sensor detects the detachment of the trash tray from the base indicating a potential flooding situation with the roof drainage system.

Non-Arch-Shaped Rainproof Water-Collection Greenhouse
20250040491 · 2025-02-06 ·

The present invention relates to a non-arch-shaped rainproof water-collection greenhouse, characterized by: a matrix of upright galvanized steel pipe columns, with adjacent columns fixed by cables connected to their upper ends, forming cable grids. A square greenhouse film with support rods along its edges is installed onto these cable grids. A water-collecting funnel and collection bucket are mounted at the center of the square film. The weight of the collection bucket and rainwater causes the square film to sag into a conical shape. To prevent excessive sagging or tearing, sag-limiting ropes are attached from the top ends of the four steel pipe columns corresponding to the film's corners, supporting the film from below and suspending the funnel and bucket in midair, creating a smooth, controlled sag. This invention features a rational design, simple structure, and minimal steel usage.
