DE2525777A1 - Reed thatch roofing panels - of chipboard with reed thatch cemented on with polyester adhesive - Google Patents

Abstract

The purpose is to enable the traditional reed thatch to continue to be used as a roof covering material, without excessive expenditure on labour and materials. For this purpose the reed thatch is cemented onto a panel, instead of being stitched directly onto roof battens; panels are of standard sizes, easily handled, and suitable for a rafters interval of 80 cm; chipboard is suitable material. Waterproofing is supplied by the polyester, or similar plastic, used as adhesive - rather than bitumen, which would involve fire hazards. The reed thatch is between 5 and 10 cm thick. Pressure causes the edges to slop over the panel edge, so as to give the completed roof a homogenous cohesive structure.

Description

lattenrcet! With the right roof covering in the conventional way, un to withstand the lattice, a lot of thatch, layered on top of each other, sewn and twisted. The excellent insulation results from the strength of the thatched roof.

Because all of this is painstakingly done by hand. can be found today only a few who pay for it and even fewer who do this craft at all can. So if you want a thatched roof, you have to put up with long waiting times Repairs to these roofs are particularly costly.

The invention is based on the object of reed as roofing material and reduce labor and material costs to a minimum.

According to the invention, this object is achieved by first created in a conventional manner the roof structure and attached to this the slab thatch. These battens are in handy and easy to lay sizes, according to the rafter spacing made of 60 cm.

Thanks to the stability of the wooden panel, which can be used as a substructure for If the thatch is used, you start with the battens, which are already quite expensive today.

The waterproof and staile Plastic polyester used. (Bitumen would be cheaper, but it is too flammable j.

The thickness of the thatch should vary between 5 and 10. Less would not be attached because the structure underneath, unfortunately de, more would be bad because then the Plattan was too bulky and the material costs too high. For better insulation To achieve this, the panels would not have to be coated more heavily. The industry offers far more effective insulating materials than thatch, much cheaper! The invention aims to in the following on the basis of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawings to be explained in more detail.

In each drawing 1 shows: Structure of a remnant plate drawing 2: Joined thatched panels.

In the invention, the reed is first placed vertically in a container posed. inclined in the desired number of degrees and compressed to 80 X 80 cm. Now it is attached to the wood chipboard with polyester. Then the thatch cut off on its respective strength. The impermeability to water is through the plastic guaranteed.

As a result of the pressing, the thatch is placed diagonally over the edges of the panels (Drawing 1) whereby a uniform structure (Zeinung 2) is achieved.

Repairs to these roofs will be very easy as there are defective ones Have the plates replaced. This job can be an average after a short training period skilled craftsman perform.

This makes the thatched roof accessible to a wider range of builders made.

PATENT CLAIMS ie Reetplatte: Here the reed is glued to a plate instead of wired to roof battens as before. 2. Structure of the thatched plate: The thatch is no longer impermeable to water, but the plastic with which it is attached to the chipboard. 3. Production: By pressing the reed, the edges incline (Drawing 1) diagonally over the edge of the plate, so that the roof is after completion a homogeneously coherent structure (drawing 2) is obtained.
