Description

La présente invention concerne un joint vertical destiné à être interposé entre deux blocs de construction qui présentent chacun des faces verticales de joint généralement continues.The present invention relates to a vertical joint intended to be interposed between two building blocks which each have vertical faces of generally continuous joint.

Les blocs de construction concernés par l'invention peuvent être notamment des blocs de ciment ou de matière agglomérée, pleins ou évidés, des briques pleines ou encore des briques creuses à canaux verticaux. De tels blocs présentent des faces verticales de joint généralement continues,qui peuvent être soit des faces planes, soit des faces non planes définissant une gorge, de telle sorte que les deux gorges de deux blocs adjacents définissent ensemble un interstice de remplissage.The building blocks concerned by the invention can in particular be blocks of cement or agglomerated material, solid or hollowed out, solid bricks or even hollow bricks with vertical channels. Such blocks have generally continuous vertical joint faces, which can be either flat faces or non-planar faces defining a groove, so that the two grooves of two adjacent blocks together define a filling gap.

Traditionnellement, les joints verticaux des blocs de construction sont réalisés par bourrage de mortier dans l'interstice existant entre deux blocs adjacents. Or, le remplissage des joints à l'aide de mortier augmente considérablement le temps de pose, ce qui influence très défavorablement le coût de la pose d'un tel type de blocs. De surcroit, ce type de joints verticaux, entièrement réalisés par le bourrage des interstices entre deux blocs à l'aide de mortier, donne naissance à des ponts thermiques importants.Traditionally, the vertical joints of building blocks are made by filling mortar in the gap between two adjacent blocks. However, filling the joints with mortar considerably increases the laying time, which has a very unfavorable influence on the cost of laying such a type of block. In addition, this type of vertical joints, entirely made by filling the interstices between two blocks with mortar, gives rise to significant thermal bridges.

Le joint vertical qui fait l'objet de l'invention permet de supprimer le bourrage complet du joint tout en gardant une résistance mécanique suffisante et en supprimant les ponts thermiques des joints verticaux traditionnels. En outre, le joint vertical de l'invention permet d'abaisser considérablement le temps de pose d'un tel type de blocs.The vertical joint which is the subject of the invention makes it possible to eliminate the complete stuffing of the joint while retaining sufficient mechanical strength and eliminating the thermal bridges of traditional vertical joints. In addition, the vertical joint of the invention makes it possible to considerably reduce the installation time of such a type of block.

Conformément à la présente invention, le joint vertical est constitué par une structure semi-rigide comprenant une âme centrale munie sur chacune de ses deux faces d'au moins une saillie qui s'étend verticalement sur toute la hauteur du joint et qui est destinée à être comprimée entre les faces verticales de joint de deux blocs adjacents.According to the present invention, the vertical joint is constituted by a semi-rigid structure comprising a central core provided on each of its two faces with at least one projection which extends vertically over the entire height of the joint and which is intended to be compressed between the vertical joint faces of two adjacent blocks.

L'âme centrale du joint vertical de l'invention peut être constituée par un cadre généralement rectangulaire ou bien elle peut être évidée intérieurement et affecter, par exemple, une section droite en forme générale d'ellipse.The central core of the vertical joint of the invention can be constituted by a generally rectangular frame or it can be hollowed out internally and affect, for example, a cross section in the general shape of an ellipse.

Le joint vertical 10 représenté sur les figures 1 et 2 est constitué par une structure semi-rigide comprenant une âme centrale 12 réalisée sous la forme d'un cadre généralement rectangulaire. L'âme centrale 12 est munie, sur chacune de ses deux faces 14 et 16, de trois saillies 18, à savoir une saillie centrale et deux saillies latérales, qui s'étendent verticalement sur toute la hauteur du joint.The vertical seal 10 shown in Figures 1 and 2 is constituted by a semi-rigid structure comprising a central core 12 produced in the form of a generally rectangular frame. The central core 12 is provided, on each of its two faces 14 and 16, with three projections 18, namely a central projection and two lateral projections, which extend vertically over the entire height of the joint.

Comme représenté sur la figure 8, le joint vertical 10 peut être interposé entre deux blocs de construction adjacents 20 et 22 qui présentent respectivement des faces verticales de joint 24 et 26 généralement continues. Dans l'exemple représenté sur la figure 8, ces faces 24 et 26 sont des faces planes. Par suite, lorsque les deux blocs 20 et 22 sont rapprochés l'un de l'autre, les saillies 18 du joint 10 se trouvent comprimées entre les faces verticales 24 et 26 en formant un joint d'étanchéité entre les deux blocs.As shown in FIG. 8, the vertical joint 10 can be interposed between two adjacent building blocks 20 and 22 which have generally continuous faces of the joint 24 and 26 respectively. In the example shown in Figure 8, these faces 24 and 26 are planar faces. As a result, when the two blocks 20 and 22 are brought together, the projections 18 of the seal 10 are compressed between the vertical faces 24 and 26 by forming a seal between the two blocks.

La figure 3 montre une variante de réalisation du bloc des figures 1 et 2 qui se différencie de celui-ci par le fait que l'âme centrale 12 est munie en outre sur chacune de ses extrémités verticales d'une saillie verticale 28 qui s'étend sur toute la hauteur de l'âme centrale 12 et dans le plan de celle-ci. Le joint vertical de la figure 3 est destiné plus particulièrement à être interposé entre deux blocs de construction 30 et 32, tels que représentés sur la figure 9, qui présentent des faces verticales de joint 34 et 36 généralement continue, mais non planes. Les faces 34 et 36 précitées définissent respectivement deux gorges qui forment ensemble un interstice de remplissage entre les deux blocs adjacents 30 et 32. Lors du rapprochement de ces deux blocs, les saillies 18 du joint vertical 10 se trouvent comprimées dans l'interstice défini par les deux gorges précitées, tandis que les saillies 28 se trouvent comprimées dans la région la plus étroite de l'interstice, à proximité des faces externes des deux blocs 30 et 32.Figure 3 shows an alternative embodiment of the block of Figures 1 and 2 which differs from it by the fact that the central core 12 is further provided on each of its vertical ends with a vertical projection 28 which extends over the entire height of the central core 12 and in the plane thereof. The vertical joint of FIG. 3 is intended more particularly to be interposed between two building blocks 30 and 32, as shown in FIG. 9, which have vertical faces of the joint 34 and 36 which are generally continuous, but not planar. The aforementioned faces 34 and 36 respectively define two grooves which together form a filling gap between the two adjacent blocks 30 and 32. When these two blocks are brought together, the projections 18 of the vertical joint 10 are compressed in the gap defined by the two aforementioned grooves, while the projections 28 are compressed in the narrowest region of the interstice, near the external faces of the two blocks 30 and 32.

Les saillies du joint vertical 10 représentées aux figures 1 à 3 affectent toutes une section droite en forme de flèche, définissant deux lèvres espacées. Bien entendu, d'autres formes de saillies entrent également dans le cadre de la présente invention. A titre d'exemples non limitatifs, on peut mentionner des saillies dont la section droite présente la forme générale d'un coin (figure 4),d'un carré ou d'un rectangle (figure 5),d'un demi-cercle (figure 6), etc. De façon générale, les saillies du joint vertical de l'invention peuvent présenter toute forme appropriée autorisant une compression de ces saillies lors de la mise en place de deux blocs adjacents.The protrusions of the vertical joint 10 shown in Figures 1 to 3 all affect a cross section in the form of an arrow, defining two spaced lips. Of course, other forms of projections also fall within the scope of the present invention. By way of nonlimiting examples, we can mention projections whose cross section has the general shape of a corner (Figure 4), a square or a rectangle (Figure 5), a semicircle (Figure 6), etc. In general, the projections of the vertical seal of the invention may have any suitable shape allowing compression of these projections during the establishment of two adjacent blocks.

La figure 7 représente un autre mode de réalisation du joint vertical selon l'invention. Le joint 38 représenté sur la figure 7 est constitué par une structure semi-rigide comprenant une âme centrale 40 qui est évidée intérieurement et qui affecte une section droite en forme générale d'ellipse. L'âme 40 présente deux faces 42 et 44 disposées symétriquement par rapport au grand axe de l'ellipse. Chacune des deux faces 42 et 44 est munie de trois saillies 46, à savoir une saillie centrale et deux saillies latérales. L'âme centrale 40 est munie en outre, sur chacune de ses extrémités verticales, d'une saillie verticale 48 qui s'étend sur toute la hauteur de l'âme centrale et dans le plan de l'âme centrale, à savoir le plan de symétrie passant par le grand axe de l'ellipse.Il est à noter que les saillies 48 précitées constituent, là encore, une caractéristique facultative. Les saillies 48 sont destinées en effet à améliorer l'étanchéité assurée par le joint dans le cas de blocs à faces non planes, comme représenté sur la figure 9.FIG. 7 shows another embodiment of the vertical joint according to the invention. The seal 38 shown in Figure 7 is constituted by a semi-rigid structure comprising a central core 40 which is hollowed out internally and which affects a cross section in the general shape of an ellipse. The core 40 has two faces 42 and 44 arranged symmetrically with respect to the major axis of the ellipse. Each of the two faces 42 and 44 is provided with three projections 46, namely a central projection and two lateral projections. The central core 40 is further provided, on each of its vertical ends, with a vertical projection 48 which extends over the entire height of the central core and in the plane of the central core, namely the plane symmetry passing through the major axis of the ellipse. It should be noted that the aforementioned projections 48 constitute, here again, an optional characteristic. The projections 48 are in fact intended to improve the seal provided by the seal in the case of blocks with non-planar faces, as shown in FIG. 9.

Les saillies 46 et 48 du joint 38 de la figure 7 ont également été représentées avec une section droite en forme de flèche, mais il est bien entendu que ces saillies peuvent présenter d'autres formes, comme déjà indiqué plus haut.The projections 46 and 48 of the seal 38 of Figure 7 have also been shown with a cross section in the form of arrow, but it is understood that these projections may have other shapes, as already indicated above.

On remarquera que la structure évidée de l'âme centrale du joint de la figure 7 permet de conférer au joint un effet ressort et permet de surcroît l'utilisation. du joint pour différents types de blocs, la profondeur de l'interstice ménagé entre deux blocs à faces non planes variant généralement entre 3 et 4 cm.It will be noted that the hollowed out structure of the central core of the joint of FIG. 7 makes it possible to give the joint a spring effect and also allows use. of the joint for different types of blocks, the depth of the gap formed between two blocks with non-planar faces generally varying between 3 and 4 cm.

Le joint vertical de l'invention sera avantageusement réalisé par moulage d'une matière thermoplastique expansée, telle que du polystyrène expansé ou du polyuréthane expansé.The vertical joint of the invention will advantageously be produced by molding an expanded thermoplastic material, such as expanded polystyrene or expanded polyurethane.

Les figures 10 à 14 illustrent un autre mode de réalisation du joint selon l'invention. L'âme centrale 12 de ce joint affecte également la forme d'un cadre généralement rectangulaire ne comportant que deux saillies 18 sur chacune de ses deux faces 14 et 16. Ces deux saillies 18 sont disposées au voisinage des extrémités verticales du joint 10. Ces mêmes extrémités verticales du joint 10 se terminent par une lèvre 50 de section décroissante vers l'extérieur du joint. Ce mode de réalisation est particulièrement approprié pour être utilisé entre des blocs à faces non planes, tel que représenté à la figure 9.Figures 10 to 14 illustrate another embodiment of the seal according to the invention. The central core 12 of this joint also takes the form of a generally rectangular frame comprising only two projections 18 on each of its two faces 14 and 16. These two projections 18 are arranged in the vicinity of the vertical ends of the joint 10. These same vertical ends of the seal 10 terminate in a lip 50 of decreasing section towards the outside of the seal. This embodiment is particularly suitable for being used between blocks with non-planar faces, as shown in FIG. 9.

La partie basse de ce joint présente un évidement ou passage 52 destiné à ne pas interrompre la continuité du joint horizontal de mortier situé sur la rangée inférieure de blocs. Lors du glissement d'un bloc vers le bloc adjacent, l'interposition du joint déjà encastré dans le bloc mis en place, autorise la continuité du joint de mortier horizontal. L'essentiel de l'épaisseur de cette couche horizontale peut donc rester en place, ce qui augmente considérablement la résistance mécanique de l'assemblage.The lower part of this joint has a recess or passage 52 intended not to interrupt the continuity of the horizontal mortar joint located on the lower row of blocks. When sliding a block towards the adjacent block, the interposition of the joint already embedded in the set block, allows the continuity of the horizontal mortar joint. Most of the thickness of this horizontal layer can therefore remain in place, which considerably increases the mechanical strength of the assembly.

Enfin, le bord supérieur horizontal du joint 10 se termine par une face plane 54, profilé comme illustré à la figure 12, de manière à pouvoir combler l'évidement existant dans certains types de blocs (voir figure 9). Il est bien clair que ce profil particulier pourra être adapté à la forme particulière de ces évidements entre blocs, dans le but d'assurer une obturation de l'interstice et donc une surface d'appui de la prochaine couche supérieure horizontale de mortier.Finally, the horizontal upper edge of the seal 10 ends in a flat face 54, profiled as illustrated in FIG. 12, so as to be able to fill the recess existing in certain types of blocks (see FIG. 9). It is quite clear that this particular profile can be adapted to the particular shape of these recesses between blocks, with the aim of ensuring sealing of the gap and therefore a bearing surface for the next horizontal upper layer of mortar.

Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation particuliers décrits mais il est tout à fait possible, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de la présente invention, d'en imaginer un certain nombre de variantes d'exécution. Ainsi, on peut faire varier le nombre et la forme des saillies présentes sur chacune des deux faces de l'âme centrale. C'est ainsi que l'on peut prévoir un grand nombre de saillies s'étendant les unes à la suite des autres sur toute la largeur de l'âme centrale.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the particular embodiments described, but it is quite possible, without departing from the scope of the present invention, to imagine a certain number of alternative embodiments. Thus, one can vary the number and the shape of the projections present on each of the two faces of the central core. Thus it is possible to provide a large number of projections extending one after the other over the entire width of the central core.

L'écrasement des saillies entre deux blocs adjacents assure ainsi l'étanchéité contre l'humidité sans qu'il soit nécessaire de bourrer l'interstice entre les deux blocs à l'aide de mortier.The crushing of the projections between two adjacent blocks thus ensures sealing against humidity without the need to fill the gap between the two blocks with mortar.
