Description

Insulating panels for building constructions, and building constructions
Field of the Invention
The present invention concerns insulating panels for building constructions, and building constructions. In particular, the invention concerns insulating panels, and building constructions comprising insulating panels, where the body of each of the insulting panels incorporates a vacuum insulation panel.
Background of the Invention
It is known for building constructions, such as floor and roof constructions, to comprise a plurality of spacedapart beams, with insulating panels positioned between adjacent beams. In such systems the insulating panels are often formed of expanded polystyrene (EPS). Examples of such systems are shown in GB2501883A (Jablite Limited) published 13 November 2013 and GB2535815A (Jablite Limited) published 31 August 2026, for example.
It would be desirable to improve the insulation provided by such building constructions.
With this in mind, the present invention seeks to provide improved insulating panels for building constructions, and improved building constructions.
Summary of the Invention
In accordance with a first aspect of the invention there is provided an insulating panel for a building construction comprising a plurality of spaced-apart beams, wherein the insulating panel comprises a body formed of an insulating material arranged to be positioned between adjacent beams of the plurality of spaced-apart beams, and wherein body of the insulating panel incorporates a vacuum insulation panel.
The vacuum insulation panel is a panel the interior of which comprises an area of vacuum (or partial vacuum). Because of the very good insulating properties of a vacuum, the vacuum insulation panel provides a very high level of insulation, and so advantageously provides a large additional insulating effect to the insulating panel. However, vacuum insulation panels are not known for use in building constructions comprising a plurality of spacedapart beams. This is particularly because vacuum insulation panels are mainly known for their high insulating effect combined with a very thin construction, whereas thin construction is not considered a concern for insulating panels for building constructions comprising a plurality of spaced-apart beams, given the relatively large amount of space available in which to position the insulating panels. However, the thin construction of the vacuum insulating panels is in fact advantageous, as it allows them to be used as a component part of a larger insulating panel.
The vacuum insulation panel may be mounted within a recess in the body of the insulating panel. In this case, the recess may be dimensioned so that the vacuum insulation panel fits exactly within the recess. The recess may be an indentation in a surface of the insulating panel. In this way, a surface of the vacuum insulation panel is exposed, and becomes a surface of the insulating panel itself.
Advantageously, the insulating panel further comprises an air cavity between a surface of the vacuum insulation panel and the body of the insulating panel. The air cavity provides a further insulating effect.
The insulating panel may comprise a first portion arranged to be positioned between the adjacent beams, and a second portion arranged to be positioned over a first of the adjacent beams. In this case, advantageously the vacuum insulation panel is arranged to be positioned between the second portion of the insulating panel and the first of the adjacent beams. This provides the second portion with additional insulation, which as it is positioned directly over a beam is in a position where a large amount of heat loss can occur. Preferably, the vacuum insulation panel is positioned at least partially within the body of first portion of the insulating panel. This provides the further insulating effect to the first portion, as well as to the second portion where the vacuum insulation panel is arranged to be positioned between the second portion and the beams.
Preferably, the body of the insulating panel is formed of an insulating polymer. Preferably, the insulating polymer is expanded polystyrene. Alternatively, the insulating panels may be formed of any material from the group of extruded polystyrene, polyurethane or polyisocyanurate. The material may have a thermal conductivity of 0.050W/mK or below. The material may have a thermal conductivity of 0.040W/mK or below. Preferably, the material has a thermal conductivity of 0.036W/mK or below. Advantageously, the material has a thermal conductivity of 0.031W/mK or below. The material may have a thermal conductivity of 0.021W/mK or below. It will be appreciated that other suitable insulating materials could be used.
In accordance with a second aspect of the invention there is provided a building construction comprising:
a plurality of spaced-apart beams;
a plurality of insulating panels as described above, positioned between adjacent beams of the plurality of spaced-apart beams .
The building construction may be a floor construction. Alternatively, the building construction may be a roof construction. The building construction may be any other suitable construction.
The beams may be formed of concrete. Alternatively, the beams may be formed of timber. Any other suitable material may be used.
The beams may be inverted T-shaped in cross section. Alternatively, the beams may be I-shaped in cross section. Any other suitable shape may be used.
It will of course be appreciated that features described in relation to one aspect of the present invention may be incorporated into other aspects of the present invention .

Detailed Description
An insulating panel in accordance with an embodiment of the invention is now described with reference to Figures la and lb. Figure la is a cross-sectional view of the insulating panel 1, and Figure lb is a perspective view of the same insulating panel 1 viewed from the other end.
The insulating panel 1 comprises a body 2, formed from a block of EPS. The insulating panel 1 is for use in a suspended flooring system comprising a plurality of spacedapart concrete beams of inverted T-shape cross section, and so has extended portions 3a and 3b on its sides, to allow the insulating panel 1 to be positioned on the flanges extending from adjacent concrete beams. The insulating panel 1 also comprises a connecting portion 4 on a top corner, into which a connector portion (not shown) can be connected. The connector portion is a further strip of EPS, which extends over the top surface of one of the concrete beams when the insulating panel 1 is in position.
The body 2 of the insulating panel 1 comprises a recess 2a, i.e. a horizontal rectangular hole the length of the insulating panel 1, positioned roughly in the middle of the body 2. A vacuum insulation panel 5 is mounted within the recess. The vacuum insulation panel 5 is rectangular is shape and runs the length of the length of the insulating panel 1, though it will be appreciated that in embodiments of the invention the vacuum insulation panel 5 may be slightly shorter than the insulating panel 1, so that the body 2 extending beyond the ends of the vacuum insulation panel 5 protects it from damage.
The vacuum insulation panel 5 is thinner than the recess 2a, so that the recess 2a has air cavities 6a and 6b positioned respectively above and below the vacuum insulation panel 5.
The vacuum insulation panel 5 is fixed in place within the recess 2a by friction fit or by gluing the edges of the vacuum insulation panel within the recess 2a.
vacuum insulation panel that are in contact with the body
In advantageous embodiments, the is slightly wider than the main part of the recess 2a, so that the edges of the vacuum insulation panel 5 fit into indentations in the body 2 at the sides of the recess 2a.
The vacuum insulation panel 5 is a panel the interior of which comprises an area of vacuum (or partial vacuum), giving a highly efficient insulating effect. The vacuum insulation panel 5 may for example have a core of silica.
In addition, micropores can be present to reduce thermal
convection . It will be appreciated that in other
embodiments, other types of vacuum insulation panel may be
used.
The vacuum insulation panel 5 may have a thermal performance of 0.007W/mK, for example, compared with a thermal performance of 0.030W/mK for a standard insulating panel. In this way, the vacuum insulation panel 5, and also
- 8 the air gaps 6a and 6b, significantly increases the thermal performance of the insulating panel 5.
An insulating panel in accordance with another embodiment of the invention is now described with reference to Figures 2a and 2b. Again, Figure 2a is a cross-sectional view of the insulating panel 11, and Figure 2b is a perspective view of the same insulating panel 11 viewed from the other end.
The insulating panel 11 again comprises a body 12 formed from a block of EPS, with extended portions 13a and 13b on its sides. It comprises a connecting portion 14 on a top corner, into which a connector portion 17, again a further strip of EPS, is connected.
The body 12 of the insulating panel 11 again comprises a recess 12a, and a vacuum insulation panel 15 mounted within the recess 12a. However, in the present embodiment the vacuum insulation panel 15 is mounted in the top of the recess 12a, so that the recess 12a has only a single air cavity 16 positioned below the vacuum insulation panel 15. Further, the vacuum insulation panel 15 extends from the recess 12a so that it is positioned underneath the connector portion 17. This means that when the insulating panel 11 is in position within a floor construction, the vacuum insulation panel 15 is positioned between the connector portion 17 and the concrete beam it is above, so providing a large amount of additional insulation in an area where the most heat transfer can occur.
An insulating panel in accordance with another embodiment of the invention is now described with reference to Figures 3a and 3b. Again, Figure 3a is a cross-sectional view of the insulating panel 21, and Figure 3b is a perspective view of the same insulating panel 21 viewed from the other end.
The insulating panel 21 again comprises a body 22 formed from a block of EPS, with extended portions 23a and 23b on its sides. It comprises a connecting portion 14 on a top corner, into which a connector portion (not shown), again a further strip of EPS, can be connected.
The body 22 of the insulating panel 21 again comprises a recess 22a, and a vacuum insulation panel 25 mounted within the recess 22a. However, in the present embodiment the recess 22a is an indentation in the bottom surface of the body 22 of the insulating panel 21. The vacuum insulating panel 25 is mounted in the middle of the recess 22a, so that the recess 12a has only an air cavity 26 positioned above the vacuum insulation panel 15, and the bottom of the vacuum insulation panel 25 is exposed.
An insulating panel in accordance with another embodiment of the invention is now described with reference to Figure 4. Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view of the insulating panel 31.
The insulating panel 31 again comprises a body 32 formed from a block of EPS, with extended portions 33a and 33b on its sides. It comprises a connecting portion 34 on a top corner, into which a connector portion 37, again a further strip of EPS, is connected.
In the present embodiment, it is the connector portion that comprises a recess, and a vacuum insulation panel 35 mounted within the recess. Air cavities 36a and 36b are positioned respectively above and below the vacuum insulation panel 35. Thus, in the present embodiment the vacuum insulation panel 35 is positioned above the concrete beam the insulating panel 31 is positioned upon, providing a large amount of additional insulation in an area where the most heat transfer can occur.
An insulating panel in accordance with another embodiment of the invention is now described with reference to Figure 5. Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view of the insulating panel 41.
The insulating panel 41 again comprises a body 42 formed from a block of EPS, with extended portions 43a and 43b on its sides. It comprises a connecting portion 44 on a top corner, into which a connector portion 47, again a further strip of EPS, is connected.
In the present embodiment, both the body 42 and connector portion 47 comprise corresponding recesses, in which a vacuum insulation panel 45 is mounted. Thus, again the vacuum insulation panel 45 is positioned above the concrete beam upon which the insulating panel 41 is positioned.
In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the connector portion 47 is of sufficient length, and the recess within it extends sufficiently far within connector portion 47, that the vacuum insulation panel 45 extends well beyond the width of the concrete beam on both sides. In this way, the vacuum insulation panel 45 is particularly effective at preventing loss of heat through the insulating panel 41 to the concrete beam.
In another particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention the body 42 of the insulating panel 41 also comprises a recess and a further vacuum insulating panel within the recess, such as shown in Figures la and lb. Thus, the insulating panel 41 comprises two vacuum insulation panels, one in the body 42 covering the space between adjacent concrete beams and one in both the connector portion 47 and body 42 covering above a concrete beam. It will be appreciated that the different configurations of vacuum insulation panels of the various embodiments could be combined in various different ways in accordance with the invention.
While the present invention has been described and illustrated with reference to particular embodiments, it will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that the invention lends itself to many different variations not specifically illustrated herein. The skilled person will in particular appreciate that the insulating panels could be shaped in various alternative ways while still being in accordance with the invention.
For example, while embodiments of the invention have been described in which the insulating panel has a connector portion and is arranged to be used in a floor construction comprising inverted T-shape beams, it will be appreciated that the invention is equally applicable to other types of insulating panel and building constructions, for example
- 12 roof constructions, constructions with I-shaped beams, insulating panels without connector portions, and insulating panels which are simply rectangular in cross section, to give just some examples.
