Definitions

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • tiles have to be mounted side by side, with the irregular assembly mentioned above, for providing a barrier against water, but, due to the small detects, this barrier has a poor efficiency.
  • a vertical joint packing, made up with elastic material, can be added between adjacent tiles, but the durability of itssolution cannot be guaranteed, since it can be poorly fitted when installed and it can loose its properties as time goes on, or even be taken off by anybody, causing the support and the wall to be exposed to water long term contact.
  • an exterior wall unit structure of the above mentioned type characterized by the fact that it further comprises tile build joint members which are each provided in each tile build joint, each said tile build joint member having flanges in contact with the outside surface of said siding member, said flanges being sandwiched between said siding member and tiles.
  • the siding member may be formed by a metal sheet having connecting means made up with bent opposed paired sides thereof permitting fitting connection between adjacent siding members.
  • FIG. 1 is a building frame part, e.g., a pillar, a beam, a furring strip, etc.
  • FIG 2 is an exterior wall of the building
  • at 3 is an exterior wall rough back.
  • the exterior wall 2 comprises siding members 10 and tiles 20 secured to one another.
  • Each siding member is a board including a base member 11, which is formed by bending a metal sheet and has regular dimensions corresponding to a predetermined number of unit tiles 20, a heat/sound insulating material 12 filling a back side space defined by the base member 11, and a back finish mebmer 13.
  • the heat/sound insulating material 12 may be selected from well-known materials.
  • the base member 11 has edge overlap portions 14 and 15 formed along its upper and lower edges. Vertically adjacent two base members 11 are connected together with the overlap of their corresponding edge overlap portions 14 and 15. On its exterior side, the base member 11 is provided with engaging means 16.
  • the engaging means 16 is adapted to retain two, i.e., an upper and a lower, rows of tiles 20. More specifically, it is constituted by an upper and a lower L-shaped flange 17 and an intermediate T-shaped flange 18 located at the position of a tile bed joint.
  • the upper and lower L-shaped flanges 17 define respective grooves open at the bottom and at the top, while the intermediate T-shaped flange 18 defines an upper and a lower groove 17 respectively facing the grooves of the upper and lower L-shaped flanges 17.
  • a tile bed joint member 19 constitutes part of the engaging means 16. The member 19 has double the vertical dimension of the L-shaped flanges 18.
  • Each tile 20 is a porcelain tile. As shown in Figures 4 and 5, it has a main portion 21 and an upper and a lower edge portion 22.
  • the edge portions 21 and 22 have a thickness t slightly smaller than the width b of the grooves 17. These portions constitute engaging means 23 to let the tile be retained by the siding member 10.
  • the main portion 21 is stepped with respect to the edge portions 22 has a sectional profile projecting from the exterior surface of the upper and lower L-shaped flanges 18 and intermediate bed joint member 19.
  • the siding members 10, tiles 20 and tile build joint members 30 may be prepared as units for forming the exterior wall 2, each unit being assembled with each siding member 10 as a base.
  • Tile build joint members 30 are inserted alternately with tiles 20 and fitted such that their flange portions 32 are laid on the back side of the edge portions of the tiles 20.
  • the engaging means 16 of the siding members 10 are exposed as horizontal tile build joints, but the engaging means 23 of the tiles 20 are not exposed as any exterior member.
  • Figure 13 shows the base member 111. As is shown, it is an extrusion molded sheet-like member, and has an upper and a lower lap portion 114 and 115. Between the upper lap portion 114 and an intermediate cross joint position is formed a groove 117, in which a tile cross joint member 140 is fitted.
  • the exterior engaging means 116 for engagement with tiles 120 consists of upwardly bent engaging portions 118 each formed beneath each groove 117 and a T-shaped engaging portion 119 formed between the groove 117 noted above and a lower groove 117. That is, the engaging means two vertical steps, which recur one after another.
  • Figures 14 and 15 show the tile 120.
  • the tile has a main portion 121, an upper and a lower engaging portion 122 and 123 projecting from the back side of the upper and lower edges of the main portion 121, an intermediate engaging portion 124 projecting from the back side of the main portion 121 and having a substantially L-shaped sectional profile and a further engaging portion 125 provided beneath the intermediate engaging portion 124.
  • the upper and intermediate engaging portions 122 and 124 have respective downwardly inclined surfaces for engagement with the respective engaging portions 118 and 119 of the associated siding member 110.
  • the engaging portion 125 is held in stable contact with the outer surface of the engaging portion 119.
  • the engaging means 126 of the tile 120 has three steps.
  • a tile build joint member 130 is provided in each build joint between horizontally adjacent tiles 120.
  • the tile build joint member 130 is an independent bar-like member having a height corresponding to the height of the tiles 120 and a width equal to the width of the tile build joint. It has an upper and a lower engaging portion 132 and 133 projecting from the upper and lower edges of its back side and engaging with the respective engaging portions 118 and 119 of the associated siding member 110.
  • the engaging portions 132 and 133 constitute engaging means 134.
  • the engaging portion 132 is similar to the engaging portion 122
  • the engaging portion 133 has an L-shaped sectional profile having an upwardly extending portion for engaging the engaging portion 119 from below.
  • the engaging portions 132 and 133 are engaged with the engaging portions 118 and 119 only with horizontal sliding of the member 130.
  • the siding members 110, tiles 120 and tile build joint members 130 may be prepared as exterior wall formation units.
  • Each tile 120, having the above sectional profile and engaging means 126, is fitted by hooking its upper and intermediate engaging portions 122 and 124 from above on the respective engaging portions 118 and 119 of the associated siding member 110 and having its intermediate engaging portion 125 in contact with the engaging portion 119.
  • This state of fitting is a temporarily fitted one.
  • the individual tile build joint members 130 are fitted alternately with tiles 120. Since their engaging portions 132 and 133 form opposing grooves, they can be fitted only by sliding engagement of them with the engaging portions 118 and 119.
  • the temporarily fitted tiles 120 are secured in position in tile cross joints by fitting tile cross joint members 140 in the grooves 117 of siding members 110.
  • a tile build joint member 230 is provided in a tile build joint between adjacent side-by-side tiles 220. As shown in Figure 24, the tile build joint member 230 is similar to the tile build joint member 30 noted above and has a main portion 231 and side flanges 232. The flanges 232 are laid against the back surfaces of tiles 220, and the main portion 231 is flush with the exterior surfaces of the tile cross build joint members 212.
  • Such build joint member 230 is applicable not only to the straight joint as in the example of Figure 25 but also to the staggered joint.
  • the exterior wall 2 is formed basically in the usual way, by fitting siding members 10 one above another on the outside surface of the rough back 3, with each siding member 10 connected to the immediately lower one by engaging the lower edge overlap portion 15 of the upper one with the upper edge overlap portion 14 of the lower one.
  • an exterior wall unit structure for forming an 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 is formed by bending a metal sheet such that opposed paired sides thereof are formed with connecting means permitting fitting connection between adjacent siding members.
