Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
The insulating panel comprises a plurality of vertically extending drainage channels (1). A connecting channel (4) extends along the upper (2) and lower (3) edge of the panel and communicates with all drainage channels (1). This allows, that vertically adjacent panels may be laterally offset to each other to such an extent, that no vertical communication between vertically adjacent drainage channels (1) exists. The draining is nevertheless secured in that the water flowing down the upper drainage channels (1) will accumulate and flow laterally along the connecting channel (4) and proceed from there further through the drainage channels (1) of the lower panel.

Description

INSULATING PANEL FOR THE OUTER INSULATION
AND OUTER DRAI~AGE OF SUBTERRANEAN WALLS

The invention relates -to an insulating panel for thermal in~ulation and for water drainage of sub terranean, ba~ement, building or cons-truction walls.
The panel has a plurality of drainage channels which are open on one surface of the panel and which extend from a fi.rst panel edge to a second panel edge located oppositely thereto and are open at both panel edges.

Such insulating panels are used for thermal insulation on the outer side o~ the wall and for water drainage of such walls. During construction the panels are placed against the wall to be protected prior to the backfilling of earth. Apart from their temperature insulating properties these panels provide for the drainaye of water, specifically rain water which can flow along the drainage channels downwardly into the ground or into water collection pipes.

Such panels, each have a plurality of vertically extending grooves, such as disclosed, e.g., in ~erman published patent application No. DE-31 13 807. The panels have a common drawback, however, in that the 31,908-F 1-vertically extending drainage grooves of the individual panels which are located vertically on top of each other may not be properly aligned during the build-up of such outer cladding of a wall. Alternatively, the vertically stacked panels may shift laterally relative to each other or may get partly clogged such that various blockages of the draining channels wlll occur.

An object of the inven-tion is to provide an insulating panel of the kind metioned above, which does not feature the aforementioned drawbacks and which provides for effective drainage at all lateral relative positions of the individual panels forming the outer covering for subterranean walls.

According to the invention, the insulating panel is characterized in that a connecting channel each is located in the side surfaces of the panel extending along the first and in the second panel edg~
and communicating with every drainage channel and extending perpendicularly thereto.

Pref~rably, the insulating panel is an integral structural member and has the shape of two plate bodies located on top of each other and offset in diagonal direction relative to each other, such that every side surface of the panel ahs a step-like extent whereby adjacent panels overlap partly and guide each other.
The panel surface which is provided with the drainage channels can be covered by a web-like material such that the drainage channels are covered and protected from clogging-up by soil, gravel or ~he like entering the channels.

31,908-F -2-4~
The subject of the invention will be described in greater detail below upon reference to the annexed d.rawings, wherein:

Figure 1 is a perspective view of an upper s~ction of an insulating panel, Figure 2 is a perspective view of adjacent end sections of two vertically positioned panels, Figure 3 is a section through two vertically adjacent panels illustra-ting one embodiment of a connecting channel, Figure 4 is a section through an upper end part of an insulating panel showing a further embodiment of the cross-section shape of the connecting channel, Figure 5 is a view similar to the view of 1~ Figure 4 of a further e~bodiment of the connecting channel, Figure 6 is a side view o an insulating panel provided with a drainage channel covering web, and Figure 7 is a top view of the panel illustrated in Figure 6.

The insulation panel of which an upper end portion is shown in Figure 1 can be fabricated of any kind of suitable material, such as an extruded plastics material, a foamed plastics material or a mortar-bound material. In the preferred embodiment, the insulating 31,908-F -3 plate is made of an e~truded polystyrene foam. One main surface of the panel is provided with ~ertically extending parallel drainage channels 1, which ex-tend along the entire vertical length of the panel. A
connecting channel 4 is formed in the top side surface
2 of the panel. A similar connecting channel 4 is provided at the bottom side surface 3, such as is shown, for exampl~, in Figures 2 and 3. The connecting channel 4 extends in a direction perpendicular to the drainage channels 1 and is offset relative to the drainage cha~nels 1 in the direction of the panel thickness. As can be seen from Figures 1, 2 and 3, the drainage channels 1 partly intersect the connecting channel 4 such that the outer side wall of the connecting channel 4 has a plurality of openings 5, each of which forms a passageway communicating t~e connecting channel 4 with the drainage channels 1.

In Figure 2 there are shown two insulating panels stacked vertically on top of each other. The panels are laterally offset relatlve to each other such that their individual drainage channels l are not aligned with each other. This no longer poses a problem regarding the drainage of water, because the water draining down the drainage channels 1 of the upper panel enters into a connecting channel 4, flows hori-zontally along this connecting channel 4 until reaching the nex~ drainage channel 1 of the lower panel ~hrough which it can flow freely fuxther down. Such lateral off-set installation of adjoining insulating panels may also be made on purpose such that during back-filling of th~ earth, for example, only the individual drainage channels 1 of the uppermost panel may be filled with debris (e.g., soil, gravel, and the like) because the path for such debris to the lower panel is securely blocked by such off-set arrangement.
31,908-F -4-R~ferring to Figure 3 there is shown a preferred cross~sectional shape of a connecting channel 4, which in this case has a rectangular cross-section. In order to promote the drainage of water running along a connecting channel 4, the bottom 6 of the connecting channel 4 may extend obliquely towards the drainage channels, as illustrated in Figure 4. Obviously, a large variety of cross-sectional shapes of the connecting channels 4 is possible, one further semi-circular shape is illustrated in Figure 5.

Attentlon is now drawn to Figure 6. The insulating pan~l of the embodiment shown is an integral body having stepped side walls. It basically has the shape of tWG panel bodies 7 and 8 located on top of lS each o~her such that they are offset in a lateral direction relative to each other. This will not only result in a mutual guiding of adjacent panels, but also prevent foreign bodies, for instance small-sized bodies of backfill, to enter between the two panels.

The panel surface in which the ~rainage channels 1 are located is optionally covered by a web-like material 11, such that the drainage channels 1 are protected from the incursion of foreign materials into th~ channels which may block the flow of water along the channels. This covering web 11 may be of any kind of material as long as it is water permeable.
According to Figures 6 and 7 this covering web or porous sheet projects over two adjacent sides 7, 9 of the panel, such that the covering webs 11 of two adjoining panels overlap each other. The advantage of this embodiment is that an imperfect alignment of neighboring or adjacent, respectively, panels cannot . 31,908-F _5_ have any detrimental effect regarding the entry of foreign particles. This overlapping design on the one hand of the edges and on the other hand of the covering webs can also allow for an a-t least temporary locking of adjacent panels during installation by any kind of a sharp pointed o~ject.
