- Vertically arranged mullions 14 in the form of ducts or channels are arranged at intervals along the wall
- the mullions 14 may be down pipes or drainpipes as are known in the art. Preferably the mullions are of square or rectangular cross-section for ease of connection.
- the mullions may be constructed of aluminium or other suitable material.
- the wall 12 comprises a pattern of panels 16.
- the panels may be glazing or could be of any cladding as is known in construction.
- the vertical cladding could be infill panels to a hollow metal framing grid.
- the panels are arranged in a substantially vertical configuration such that rain hitting the panels will run down the face thereof to their base.
- transoms 18 form substantially horizontally arranged channels at or near the base of each panel 16. While the transoms 18 are illustrated as symmetrically arranged at either side of the mullions 14, this is not essentially and they may be arranged at any position between adjacent mullions 14.
- the transoms 18 have ports 20 located therein so that rainwater collecting on the outer surface of the panels 16 runs into the channels 22 of the transoms 18.
- the rainwater is ducted to the mullions 14 where it falls and is directed via a shoe 24 to a base collector duct 26.
- FIG. 1(b) shows the connection of the transom 18 to a mullion 14.
- the mullion 14 includes a mounting arrangement of a T-bar for locating the mullion between adjacent panels 16.
- a simple box fitting is used to connect the transom 18 to the mullion 14, as shown in Figure 1 (c).
- a gasket seal can be arranged at the connection.
- the transom 18 is connected into the panels 16 at their base, as illustrated in Figure 1(d).
- glazed panels have an aluminium frame surrounding the dual panels. Typically a box section is positioned on an inner surface of the glazing.
- the present invention can be considered as a modified and 'inverted' design of patent glazing or curtain walling screen to intercept and collect the rainwater from facades.
- the system comprises an inverted design of screen assembly, with box sections projecting outwards instead of inwards.
- the apparatus 10 can be formed as a frame section, a cladding panel including the frame section or the entire rainwater harvesting system with mullions and collection and recycling components.
- the transoms 18 can be joined to the panels by means of a compression plate 28 located on the opposing side of the panel 16.
- Seals 30 are located above and below the transom 18 to direct the rainwater from the front surface of the panel 16 into the channel 22 and maintain the seal integrity of the double glazed panel 16.
- the seals may be weatherseals as are known in the art and provide pressure seal gaskets at these locations. Seals can also be located between the transoms 18 and the mullions 14.
- the channels 22 can be stiffened through additional supports located therein. This may be required for longer distances of transoms 18.
- the slots 20 may be incorporated in a removeable cover which allows the channels 22 to be conveniently cleaned.
- the slots may be of any shape and configuration such as slots. A grating could also be used.
- a cover is required to prevent leaves and debris clogging up the apertures between the mullions 14 and the transoms 18. Alternatively lift out sections may be used to enable cleaning.
- Structural connections if steel, are connected to flanges formed on the outside of the box section.
- the interior of the mullion box sections is kept clear of structural or other intrusions,
- each mullion 14 At the base of each mullion 14 is a shaped shoe to connect to the foot of the vertical mullion to rainwater pipework to conduct collected rainwater to the storage vessel.
- the shaped 'shoe' may be a section in aluminium or other non-ferrous metal sealed by neoprene or EPDM gaskets, to connect the foot of vertical mullions to rainwater collection pipework in aluminium or other non-ferrous metal or plastics material to conduct collected rainwater to a base collector duct 26.
- Figures 2, 3 and 4 illustrate the additional components for an entire rainwater collection and harvesting system, generally indicated by reference numeral 32.
- rainwater can additionally be collected from available roof space 34.
- the rain collected from the roof 34 is directed to roof-line or roof-edge guttering 36 as presently exists. These gutters 36 are connected to the vertical mullions 14 and aid in water collected in the mullions 14. Mullion sizes can be altered to suit predicted rainwater capacity.
- the water collected in the mullions 14 from the gutter 36 and the transoms 18 is directed via the shoes 24 into a base collector 26.
- the base collector ducts the water to a storage vessel 38 in a basement level or ground floor level.
- the storage vessel 38 will be fed from any number of base collectors and may be considered as a harvest tank.
- This stored water may then be filtered 40 and pumped 41 to a tank 42 at an upper location or roof level in the building.
- the water can then be distributed by typical gravity feed for use throughout the building such as flushing toilets, or cleaning and maintenance.
- FIG. 5 of the drawings shows a design with increased structural strength and an open top area, giving a gutter zone more easily cleaned out of sediment. Drainage holes into the vertical mullions are then either drilled holes, or shaped holes, with seals as previously.
- the stiffening member used to create the gutter can be angled to direct the rain water as desired.
- the water ducts into apertures formed in the vertical aluminium mullions through gasket-sealed connections.
- the mullions act as rainwater conduits down to the ground floor or basement. At this point the water is collected horizontally and ducted to a storage vessel. From here it is filtered as with conventional rainwater harvesting systems and pumped to roof level for gravity distribution as above.
- Figures 6 and 7. show the components used in place of the compression plate 28.
- a box section 48 extends on the inside of the panel 16.
- the compression screw can be applied from inside the channel 22.
- a seal 50 is located within the panel 16 to provide a flush inner surface. In this arrangement the compression screw can be inserted from the inside.
- a principal advantage of the present invention is that it provides a rainwater collection and harvesting system which may be integral with the external cladding of a building, particularly vertical cladding comprising infill panels to a hollow metal framing grid which is designed or modified to intercept, collect and channel rainwater falling on the facades and conduct same to temporary storage, treatment and reuse.
- a rainwater collection system can be viable for buildings with a lower roof surface area to wall surface area.
- a further advantage of at least one embodiment of the present invention is that it provides a metal framed cladding system, comprising a hollow grid of vertical mullions sealed to horizontal transoms which are open to their upper faces, either by perforated gratings with lift-out sections or fully open, to intercept and channel rainwater which falls over the weather sealed intermediate cladding panel areas, and conduct it to the closed vertical mullions for disposal downwards to temporary storage, treatment and reuse.
- a yet further advantage of at least one embodiment of the present invention is that it provides a metal framing section which can be formed with weatherseals and capacity for pressure sealing gaskets to intermediate cladding panels of glass or another material, such section intended for use horizontally, with its larger (structural) portion outmost exposed to the weather, and in section subdivided either diagonally or in another fashion to create a closed chamber for structural properties, and an open chamber for the collection and conduct of rainwater to void within vertical framing.

Abstract
La présente invention concerne un système de collecte d'eau de pluie utilisant un parement de façade plutôt qu'une collecte en aval de toiture. Le système utilise des 'impostes' structurelles ou des éléments de vitrage pour diriger l'eau de pluie ruisselant sur des panneaux de vitre dans des meneaux verticaux, et de là vers le bas pour pénétrer dans un système de collecte au sous-sol comme c'est le cas dans des systèmes de collecte d'eau de pluie classiques. Selon certains modes de réalisation, le système est un système fermé à fentes, avec des panneaux aptes à être soulevés pour être nettoyés, et un système ouvert avec un accès plus facile pour le nettoyage. Les deux modes de réalisation permettent la collecte d'eau de pluie avant qu'elle ne soit contaminée par le sol, simplifiant ainsi la filtration et la réutilisation à l'intérieur de l'immeuble. L'invention permet également aux immeubles urbains de profiter avantageusement de la collecte d'eau de pluie et de réduire leur consommation d'eau, ce qui n'était auparavant possible que pour les immeubles à grande surface de toiture.
