Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to exterior wall unit structures using tiles applied to outside surfaces of buildings and, more particularly, to exterior wall units having dry structures formed by using siding members and tiles.
- In the prior art, there are well-known siding members, which are in the form of boards comprising metal base members and fillers filling the base members for ensuring insulation against heat and sound, the fillers being such as synthetic resin foams such as polyurethane foam, glass wool, rock wool and asbestos. They are used as exterior materials or finishing materials for building structures. However, any such base member is formed as a finishing material by coating a steel sheet and fitted as exposed exterior material. Therefore, its processing is limited, and it lacks imposing characters and high class senses.
- On the other hand, tile finishing is adopted for regular buildings such as reinforced concrete buildings. It is superior in imposing characters, and it is practiced in various processes using tile units. However, joint structures between adjacent tile units can not be ignored. They require site works by experts skilled in the tile finishing and are very inferior in operability. Further, there is a social problem that the experts are insufficient. Further, the solidification of mortar by drying imposes limitations on the construction period.
- There is a technique for simplifying the tiling operation, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Disclosure No. 147,832/1984. In this technique, supports are secured to plate members of a building body, and tiles are assembled by sliding engagement with the supports. In this case, however, such site assembly works as the securing of the supports and fitting of the tiles by sliding engagement are necessary after securing the plate members on the building body side. The process thus requires a large number of steps and fails to greatly contribute to the reduction of the construction period. Besides, if an error is produced in the assembling of the supports, it disables subsequent regular tile assembling and causes finish irregularities. At any rate, therefore, works by experts are necessary.
- The present invention has been intended in the light of the above situation, and it has an object of providing an exterior wall unit structure comprising one or more siding members and one or more tile units, which can preclude the drawbacks inherent in the prior art.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an exterior wall unit, which both the siding members and tile units are provided with engaging means for mutual engagement, thus permitting tiling simultaneously with the assembling of the siding members to a building body side.
- To attain the above objects of the invention, there is basically provided an exterior wall unit structure for constituting the exterior wall of a building structure, which comprises a siding member made of a metal and one or more porcelain tiles corresponding in size to and fitted to the outside surface of the siding member, the siding member having the outside surface formed with engaging means extending in the horizontal direction for engagement with the tile or tiles, each tile being formed with engaging means for engagement with the engaging means of the siding member, each tile being coupled to the outside surface of the siding member to be integral therewith with the engagement of both the engaging means. The siding member may be formed by bending a metal sheet such that opposed paired sides thereof are formed with connecting means permitting fitting connection between adjacent siding members.
- According to the invention, the engaging means may be in various forms. In a basic mode of the invention, the engaging means of the siding member is constituted by a downwardly directed and an upwardly directed L-shaped portion formed along the upper and lower edges, respectively, and the engaging means of each tile is constituted by upper and lower edge portions capable of being fitted in the spaces defined by the L-shaped portions, each tile being fitted in the siding member with sidewise sliding therealong, the engaging means of the siding member forming a tile cross joint when vertically adjacent siding members are coupled together. Such siding members and tiles are combined along with joint members fitted in tile build joints.
- In a second mode of the invention, the engaging means of the siding member is constituted by two upwardly bent portions one formed along the upper edge and the other formed beneath and parallel thereto, and the engaging means of each tile is constituted by two downwardly bent portions formed at the time of molding on the back one along the upper edge and the other beneath and parallel thereto, these downwardly bent portions being supported by the upwardly bent portions, each tile being temporarily fitted to the siding member when it is hooked thereon from above, a tile cross joint member being fitted in a tile cross joint formed between vertically adjacent siding members coupled together to secure the tiles having been temporarily fitted on the upwardly bent portions.
- In a third mode of the invention, the engaging means of the siding member is constituted by an outside recessed portion having a sectional profile like a dovetail, and the engaging means of each tile is constituted by a metal member fitted in a back side recessed portion between the upper and lower edges of the tile and corresponding in the width to the outside recessed portion, each time being elastically fitted in and held by the siding member by forcibly fitting the metal member in the outside recessed portion of the siding member, a tile cross joint member being fitted in a tile cross joint formed between vertically adjacent siding members coupled together.
- In the above various modes, the siding members and tiles are assembled together with their engaging means to be provided as exterior wall units having a size determined by the size of the siding member. Thus, not only the drawbacks noted above inherent in the prior art can be precluded, but also any expert skill is no longer needed, and contribution to the reduction of the construction period can be obtained.
- The above and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become more apparent from the detailed description of the preferred embodiment when the same is read with reference to the accompanying drawings.
