Description

Technical field

The technical solution relates to a glass corner block, which is hollow and square and consists of two parts made of at least one conventional hollow sight glass block of rectangular shape.

Background Art

Glass-brick or block building walls are usually provided with metal or concrete building elements at the corners, which on the one hand reinforces these areas, on the other hand, especially at the corners of glass walls, the overall visual appearance of the glass wall, which is slightly permeable to light. That is why various types of corner glass bricks have recently appeared.

One type of corner glass block is composed of a solid glass body that shows approximately the shape of a circular cylinder sector. For the production of such blocks, a separate mold is required for each format.

Corner glass blocks formed as hollow are also known and extended.

European Patent No. 320,077 discloses a glass brick which serves as a end glass brick in a vertical wall of conventional glass bricks, hollow bricks of basic cuboid shape, slightly rounded at corners. The end glass brick has the same width and height as the glass bricks in the vertical wall. Its one side, in a vertical orientation, has a standard cuboid shape as a conventional brick, the opposite side, end, is trapezoidal in its top view, with a tapered front vertical plane. Special molds are required for the production of these end blocks.

In the European patent. No. 443,074 discloses hollow glass brick which can serve as both end and corner glass. When viewed from above, one end thereof is in the vertical orientation of a conventional cuboid shape, the other opposite end being formed into a rounded wedge or "tip" of two obliquely oriented perpendicular walls forming an angle of 45 °. This glass block consists of two identical halves that are welded along an axially vertical surface. To make this brick, two halves of this brick are first made of a roughly cup-shaped mirror-like shape, which is melted in the region of the upper cup-shaped edge and joined into a final glass hollow brick shaped at one end at an angle of about 45 °. One such brick may serve as a trailing edge brick to terminate a wall of glass bricks. If two glass bricks are applied to each other with "tips" so that their vertical axes form a roughly right angle, a corner of the wall is formed and the bricks thus arranged serve to join two mutually perpendicular walls. This type of glass brick described requires the production of two identical blanks and their subsequent welding.

The essence of the technical solution

These disadvantages are eliminated or substantially reduced in the case of a glass corner block which is translucent, hollow and angular and consists of two parts formed of at least one conventional hollow translucent glass block of rectangular shape. The essence of this technical solution is that each hollow part consists of at least one end wall and / or parallel rear wall and side walls oriented thereto in a rectangular manner and has a planar rectangular frame profile in the dividing plane, after separating at least one conventional glass block. This profile is situated perpendicular to the opposite side walls and in a plane inclined at an angle of less than 90 ° with respect to the rear wall and / or the front wall. In this case, the two frame profiles of the two parts are identical and are rigidly connected to each other so that the two parts are rotated in each other and are arranged at an angle of less than 180 °.

The main advantage of this solution is to obtain a new quality type of glass building element, obtained from conventional traditional hollow glass brick with minimal cost.

It is preferred that the glass corner block has both parts mirror-like and symmetrically arranged. This type of glass corner block is one of the most desirable in conventional corner walls and there is no waste from its production.

It is also advantageous if the two parts have a different length from the common contact profile, and the larger one has a length maximally corresponding to the front wall or rear wall of a conventional glass block. The corner glass block thus obtained is suitable for corner walls of unequal length or for atypical structures. It is also advantageous if both parts have the same elongated length from the common contact profile, maximally corresponding to the length of the front or rear wall of a conventional glass block. Thus, a relatively long corner glass block is obtained, which can have a length of up to one conventional brick from the common profile, and is made from two originally conventional blocks.

Preferably, the two parts are rotated together with their same profiles to form an angle that can be right, which is the simplest to manufacture but can also be sharp or blunt as desired. Preferably, both parts can be joined to a final corner block either by bonding or by welding.

Examples of technical solutions

Example 1 (Fig. 1,2,3,4)

A conventional block-shaped glass block (FIG. 1) is formed by two viewing walls 2, 3, namely the front wall 2, the rear wall 3 and the four side walls 4, 5, 6, 7. The cross section of the cross section, which extends perpendicularly to the shrubs of the opposing side walls 6, 7, also passes through the intersection of their diagonals and is simultaneously guided at an angle α equal to 45 ° with respect to the rear wall 3, so that the indicated section divides each of the side walls 6, 7 in equal dimensions. and the same. After cutting the conventional block in the indicated section by the front wall 2, the rear wall 3 and the side walls 6, 7, two planar closed frame profiles 8 of rectangular shape (Fig. 1,2) are formed from the cutting surfaces of the walls.

Thus, by cutting a conventional glass block 1 in the section shown (FIG. 1), two shaped parts 9, 10 (FIG. 2) are formed, where they remain in the original condition 1 in their original state.

Only two opposing side walls 4, 5 are provided. Both parts 9, 10 have a rectangular profile 8 that is flat and planar.

The first part 9 (FIGS. 2, 3) comprises the original side wall 4, the part of the rectangular front wall ₂₁ , the larger rectangular rear wall ₃₉ , the trapezoidal flat side walls 6, ₉ , ₉ and the frame profile ₉ in the plane tapered to rear section 3 ₉ at an angle and 45 °.

The second part 10 (Figs. 2, 3) comprises an original side wall 5, a rectangular front wall 20, a smaller rectangular rear wall 30, a trapezoidal flat side wall 610, 7j and a frame profile 8io in a plane bevelled to the front wall 2 _). angle α 45 °.

Both parts 9, 10 are therefore e.g. completely coextensive side walls 4, 5, front wall 2 ₉ of the first portion 9 and the rear wall 3i ₀ second member 10, the front wall 2i ₀ of the second part 10 and the rear wall 3 ₉ of the first part 9 , etc.

To the first part 9, the second part 10 is reversed by the inverted cutting edge of the profile 8 so that the front surface _{29 of the} first part 9 forms with the same rear surface _{30 of the} second part 10 the angle α 2, i.e. the right angle (Fig. 3). Both frame sections 8 _{9 0} a8i on their contact surfaces with a suitable blind colorless adhesive. A corner glass block 11 (FIG. 4) is formed which has between the two original frame profiles 8, ₉ , 8 | ₀ 9.10 created two parts glued firmly.

Alternatively, any angle α, less than 90 °, can be selected when cutting a standard glass block 1, so that two identical parts 9, 10, not shown, in which the joint formed by bonding their frame profiles ₉ , 810 will join the two pieces 9 thus formed , 10, inclined at an angle 2a, which may be both a sharp and a blunt angle.

A further modification of this solution can be the guiding of the cut outside the intersection of the diagonals of the side walls 6, 7, so that two parts 9, 10, with flat identical side walls 4, 5 of both parts 9, 10, which have different lengths in the sense of the remaining side walls 6, are formed ₉ , 7i ₀ ; 6i ₀ 7 ₉ , and, of course, the front walls _{21 of the} first part 9 with respect to the rear wall 30 of the second part 10, and the front wall _{20 of the} second part 10 with respect to the rear wall _{34 of the} first part 9. Thus an alternative corner glass block 11 (not shown) is formed. which will be longer on one side, and this longer side will allow eg to build a wall that is different than the multiple of the original dimensions of a conventional block 1.

Example 2 (Fig. 5,6,7, 8)

In order to maintain the entire front wall 2 of the original block I, it is possible to use two conventional glass blocks 1 (Fig. 5). For each of these blocks 1, the cross-section is guided in one of the edges of the end wall 2 at the same angle chosen as desired but always less than 90 °; in this particular embodiment, due to the simpler representation, an angle α of 45 ° was selected.

Thus, two identical larger parts 13 (FIG. 6) and two identical smaller parts 12 are produced from each original block 1 and are not used.

The two larger portions 13 thus extended, with the entire retained end face 2 of the two original glass blocks 1 facing each other, are aligned with the same rectangular frame profiles 8n (FIG. 7) so that the two end walls 2 are at an angle of 2a, i.e., in this particular case, right. angle.

Thus, a long corner block 14 (FIG. 8) is obtained which, compared to the exemplary embodiment I, has glass blocks JT, longer walls 2, 3.

The corner glass blocks JT, 14 may have a different surface finish, in addition to conventional matting, dyeing or printing, may include various interior designs of the original conventional glass blocks including their various colors.

These exemplary embodiments do not limit other variations and combinations within the scope of the idea of protecting the corner glass block.
