Definitions
- the present invention concerns a device for modularly building a wall construction.
- the present invention concerns a device for building a wall construction whereby it must be possible to carry out the construction rather quickly, such as for example temporary constructions in case of human disasters, garages, containers, masts, but also houses, extensions to houses, floating holiday houses, caravans, offices, schools, industrial buildings, stables, chicken runs, smokers' rooms, partitioning walls, fences, makeshift buildings, cupboards, sauna's and even swimming pools and ponds.
- Devices for building an above-mentioned wall construction in a short time for example in the form of fast building packages for building prefabricated buildings, or in the form of all sorts of building components such as panels, struts, etc. are already known.
- Such devices are advantageous in that they can be built up quickly on the building site, but major preparations must be made beforehand, as a result of which the total period of time required to realise such a device is still relatively long.
- a disadvantage of such known devices is that they consist of many different sorts of building components, namely all sorts of panels and struts, connecting pieces, nuts, bolts, screws and the like, as a result of which a lot of preparatory planning is required to estimate among others the necessary amounts of each building component, what makes such devices unsuitable for example for building constructions in case of human disasters.
- Another disadvantage is that, with such devices, it is not simple to build a wall construction, and a lot of skill is usually required.
- the present invention aims to remedy one or several of the above-mentioned and other disadvantages.
- the present invention concerns a device for modularly building a wall construction, whereby the device consists of struts for building up a frame work and of self-supporting panels consisting of a frame which is built up of struts and which is provided with a finishing panel on at least one side, whereby the struts of the frame work and the struts of the panel are provided with cooperating coupling elements which make it possible to mutually couple the panels and/or to fix them to the frame work by a mutual movement.
- An advantage of a device for modularly building constructions according to the invention is that with only a few building components, namely the struts for the frame work and the self-supporting panels, complete constructions can be built, whereby bolts, nuts and the like are hardly used or not used at all, and whereby little or no preparatory planning is required.
- An additional advantage of a device according to the invention is that a very solid construction is obtained, as the panels are self-supporting and the struts for the frame work can be made very solid, such that the same struts and panels can be used for walls and roofs, as well as for floors, whereby constructions can be made as high as at least two storeys without having to use a supporting construction to carry the actual load.
- the shape and dimensions of the above-mentioned coupling elements are such that they make it possible to mutually couple the panels and/or to fix them to the frame work by a mutual movement, mainly in a direction transversal to the plane of the panels.
- an axial recess is provided in a strut so as to form a cable duct.
- An advantage of this embodiment of a device according to the invention is that electric cables or possibly sanitary pipes can be very easily integrated in the construction without any additional installation material, whereby the cables or the like are moreover no longer visible from the outside.
- a self-supporting panel is additionally provided with one or several of the following elements which are integrated in the panel:
- the present embodiment offers as an additional advantage that the above-mentioned elements can be very easily installed simultaneously with the self-supporting panel, as a result of which a very nice finish is obtained and much time can be gained.
- the device 1 according to the invention for modularly building a wall construction represented in figures 1 and 2 mainly consists of struts 2 for building up a frame work 3 and of self-supporting panels 4.
- the self-supporting panels 4 consist, as is represented in figure 3, of a frame 5 which is built up of struts 6 and which is provided with a finishing panel 8 on one side 7, but whereby it is not excluded to provide a finishing panel 8 on both sides 7 of the self-supporting panel 4.
- the self-supporting panel 4 is also provided with an insulating layer 9, situated in the frame 5 behind the above-mentioned finishing panel 8 or between the finishing panels 8 on both sides 7.
- finishing panel 8 can be made in all sorts of shapes, materials and colours, for example with a brick wall imitation.
- the width B of a self-supporting panel 4 is preferably in the order of magnitude of 61 cm, which is advantageous in that the self-supporting panel is suitable to be applied in the building industry, as 61 cm is a much used size in the building industry.
- the struts 2 and 6 are made hollow and they have a predominantly square and rectangular section respectively.
- the struts 2 and 6 with another section, for example with a predominantly polygonal section in the shape of a hexagon or an octagon or the like.
- the hollow design is advantageous in that the struts 2 and 6 have a light weight and in that, with a polygonal design, it is simpler to mutually couple the struts 2 and 6, for example to provide corner joints or abutting joints.
- the outer surface 10 of a strut 2 of the frame work 3 is formed of four lateral surfaces 11 to 14 which are each provided on the inside 15 of the strut 2 of a U-shaped duct 16 whose free ends 17 are fixed to the lateral surface 11 to 14 concerned.
- U-shaped ducts 16 are accessible from the outside via slots 18 provided centrally in the lateral surfaces 11 to 14.
- U-shaped ducts 16 can be mutually connected by fixed links 19 and they can be used as cable ducts 16 or as ducts for water conduits or the like.
- a rectangular strut 6 of a self-supporting panel 4 has an outer surface 20 in the given example which is mainly formed of four lateral surfaces 21 to 24.
- compartments 26 to 28 in a strut 6 also form U-shaped ducts, and as such they can also serve as ducts for cables, pipes or the like.
- compartments 26 to 28 are accessible from the outside, through slots 29 to 31 respectively which are provided in one of the wider lateral surfaces 22 of the strut 6.
- rails 32 are provided in the compartments 26 and 28 on the inside of the lateral surface 23 opposite the slots 29 and 30, which are provided with a mainly semicircular groove 33.
- the struts 2 of the frame work 3 and the struts 6 of a panel 4 are also provided with cooperating coupling elements 35 which make it possible to mutually couple the panels 4 or to fix them to the frame work 3 by a mutual movement according to a direction Q, represented in figure 6, transversally to the plane RR' of the panels 4.
- the coupling elements 35 on the struts 2 and 6 consist of a male coupling element in the form of a tooth 36 with a hook-shaped section and a female coupling element working in conjunction with the latter in the form of a groove 37 or slot 29, provided at a distance A from one another on and in the lateral surfaces 11 to 13 and 22 respectively of the strut 2 and 6 concerned.
- lateral surface 14 of a strut 2 of the frame work 3 are provided no coupling elements 35, such that this lateral surface 14 can serve as a support, for example for placing a strut 2 over its length on a floor or the like.
- the slots or grooves 18, 29 to 31 and 37, provided in the lateral surfaces 11 to 13 and 22 of the struts 2 and 6 concerned, are such that the remaining parts of the lateral surfaces 11 to 13 and 22 form edges 38 on the above-mentioned U-shaped ducts 16 and 26 to 28 which can serve as guides to couple the struts 6 of a panel 4 to a strut 2 of the frame work 3 or to mutually couple struts 6 of adjacent panels 4.
- a frame work 3 is built first by means of struts 2.
- this frame work 3 is filled with self-supporting panels 4 where necessary, for example in the form of a floor, wall or roof, by fixing the self-supporting panels 4 to the frame work 3 and/or by mutually coupling the self-supporting panels 4.
- a strut 2 of the frame work 3 and a strut 6 of a panel 4 can be coupled, since a tooth 36 and a groove 37 of the strut 2 of the frame work can catch in an additionally provided tooth 36 and groove 29 of the strut 6 of a panel 4.
- self-supporting panels 4 can be mutually coupled.
- finishing panel 8 of a self-supporting panel 4 preferably continues up to the edge 41 of the frame 5 of the adjacent and self-supporting panel 4.
- finishing panel 8 protrude over the edge 41 of the frame 5 of a self-supporting panel 4, for example in places where a self-supporting panel 4 is connected to the frame work 3, such that the finishing panel 8 also covers the strut 2 of the frame work 3.
- the thickness D of a strut 2 of the frame work 3 is preferably larger than the thickness D' of a strut 6 of a self-supporting panel 4, whereby the difference in thickness D-D' practically corresponds to the thickness D" of a finishing panel 8.
- the obtained construction is aligned in a very precise manner, as the connection between the tooth 36 and the slot 29 or the groove 37 hardly allows for any deviations, as the tooth 36 and the slot 29 or the groove 37 cooperate in a fitting manner.
- a device 1 according to the invention for modularly building a construction 39 with walls 40, namely building up a construction 39 with walls 40 in a simple manner by means of merely a few building components, which moreover is very solid.
- Figures 8 and 9 represent a strut 2 of the frame work 3 and a strut 6 of a panel 4 respectively for another embodiment of a device 1 according to the invention.
- the coupling elements 35 are formed of teeth 36 on the one hand, provided on top of the outer surfaces 10 and 20 of the struts 2 and 6 concerned, and of teeth 42 situated within the outlines of the above-mentioned outer surfaces 10 and 20.
- angular points of the struts 2 or the frame work 3 are bevelled, such that the assembly is made even easier.
- Figure 10 represents a connecting piece 43 with which struts 6 can be joined so as to form a panel 4.
- the connecting piece 43 is an angular strut on which are provided barbs on the inside, which can be realised for example by means of a punch.
- the barbs 44 prevent the connecting pieces 43 from being taken out of the struts 6, such that a frame 7 for a panel 4 can be made in a very simple manner.
- connecting elements can be provided with which different struts 2 can be connected to each other with their far ends so as to form a frame work 3, whereby these connecting elements are provided for example with gudgeons cooperating in a fitting manner with the far ends of the struts 2.
- the new strut which is integrated in a panel is advantageous in that one can make anything one wants (walls, floor, roof, annex and every angle) with one and the same type of panel.
- the panel has a standard size of 610x2440x120 mm, only the length may differ.
- Two panels that are pushed against each other have a dimension of 1200x2440 mm. This is a standard size in the building industry.
- the struts are telescoped from the inside to the outside, and by providing certain parts in the floor and ceiling with a thicker finishing layer, the standing panels are blocked.
- the 120-mm-thick EPS layer in the panel has a very high insulating value.
- the filling may also vary by adding for example a layer of rock wool so as to also meet the sound-insulating standards of building regulations.
- the top layer can be finished with different layers, also with a highly fire-retardant synthetic material which is fire-retardant during no less than 120 minutes. This measured value exceeds any values applied at present in traditional building constructions.
- the standard panels are very light. A panel having dimensions of 610x2440x120 mm with for example a Trespa finishing layer of 0.8 mm thick only weighs 13 kg, so that working with a crane is no longer necessary. Thanks to the light construction, the panel is extremely solid.
- the aluminium construction ducts can stand a pressure force of more than 4,000,000 kg/mm 2 .
- This system is very suitable for areas where there are a lot of earthquakes. As the construction is strong and moreover extremely light, we talk of an antiseismic construction. The panel is moreover watertight and perfectly insulated. The system is also maintenance-friendly. Most materials only start to age after 50 years.
- a recent development consists in making the same strut smaller, with dimensions of 600x15x2 mm, in view of building stands with it.
- the existing standard heavy wooden panels could thereby be replaced by lighter panels.
