Abstract
A ventilating and heat dissipating assembly for a roof includes hollow bricks, first corrugated plates and second corrugate plates. Each first corrugated plate spans a gap between two pairs of the hollow bricks that are spaced apart along intersecting first and second directions. Each second corrugated plate spans a gap formed between two of the hollow bricks spaced apart in the first direction and a gap between two of the first corrugated plates spaced apart in the second direction.

A ventilating and heat dissipating assembly for a roof, comprising:
- a plurality of spaced apart hollow bricks arranged in intersecting rows that extend along a first direction and a second direction intersecting the first direction, each of said hollow bricks includes
- a bottom wall having two opposite transverse sides and two opposite longitudinal sides connected between said transverse sides,
- two side walls respectively and upwardly projecting from said two opposite transverse sides of said bottom wall,
- a plurality of intermediate walls projecting upwardly from said bottom wall between said side walls and spaced apart along a direction parallel with said longitudinal sides of said bottom wall,
- a top wall opposite to said bottom wall and disposed on top of said side walls and said intermediate walls,
- a plurality of ventilation holes bounded by said bottom wall, said side walls, said intermediate walls and said top wall, each of said ventilation holes having two ventilation open ends opposite to each other along a line parallel with said transverse sides of said bottom wall,
- two outer holding ribs projecting respectively from outer surfaces of said side walls in opposite outward directions, and
- a plurality of inner holding ribs each of which projects from one of said intermediate walls into one of said ventilation holes;
- a plurality of first corrugated plates which are connected to each other and aligned along the first direction and each of which spans a gap formed between two pairs of said hollow bricks that are spaced apart in the first and second directions, each of said first corrugated plates having
- a crest portion elongated along and curved around a crest axial line parallel with the first direction, said crest portion having two opposite lateral sides on two opposite sides of said crest axial line,
- a first trough portion connected to one of said two opposite lateral sides of said crest portion, said first trough portion being seated on one of said outer holding ribs of one of two adjacent ones of said hollow bricks that are spaced apart in the second direction,
- a second trough portion connected to the other one of said two opposite lateral sides of said crest portion, said second trough portion being seated on one of said outer holding ribs of the other one of said two adjacent ones of said hollow bricks that are spaced apart in the second direction, and
- two curved rise portions respectively connected to said first and second trough portions oppositely of said crest portion and being curved in the same direction as said crest portion;
- and
- a plurality of second corrugated plates, each of which spans a gap between two of said hollow bricks that are spaced apart in the first direction and a gap between two of said first corrugated plates that are spaced apart in the second direction, each of said second corrugated plates being supported by said inner holding ribs of said two of said hollow bricks that are spaced apart in the first direction.
