Definitions

  • This invention relates to the forming of ceramic flooring or facing tiles by pressing ceramic material based on clay, feldspar and quartz.
  • such tiles are formed by being pressed in moulds and then subjected to thermal treatment, with possible surface coating layers on their front (exposed) face.
  • Deaeration is achieved in practice by applying a first pressing action to the material at a relatively slow rate (followed by further fast pressings) to allow the air to escape as completely as possible. It happens that if a certain rate is exceeded, this depending not only on the type of material and tile area but also on other lesser factors, said air pockets begin to be present in an increasing percentage. There is therefore a limit to the frequency of the press operating cycles, which cannot be exceeded.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a tile, particularly but not exclusively to be formed from atomized materials and having a relatively large surface area (exceeding 400 cm2), in which a more effective deaeration is obtained during the pressing stage than in the case of known tiles, and hence such as to allow a higher pressing rate, while maintaining the technical characteristics and geometrical form typical of usual tiles unaltered.
  • the tile of the present invention has identical technical and functional characteristics to those of the known art, it also considerably and unexpectedly improves its intrinsic capacity for evacuating air from the material during pressing.
  • the present invention is described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying figures, which illustrate a preferred but not exclusive embodiment thereof.
  • Figure 2 is a top plan view of the rear major face of the tile according to the invention.
  • Figure 3 is an enlarged detail of the section on the generic transverse plane III-III of Figure 2.
  • the present invention is based on the form of the rear major tile face (indicated by 2 in the figures), which comprises a plurality of continuous projecting ridges 3 alternating with corresponding continuous furrows 4, distributed regularly over the entire tile face 2, said ridges 3 and furrows 4 being arranged geometrically, when viewed in plan, such that ridges 3 do not intersect other ridges 3 and furrows 4 do not intersect other furrows 4 (ie so as not to form cross-overs), and that all reach the perimetral edge 6 of the tile.
  • the geometrical plan arrangement of said ridges 3 and furrows 4 on the rear face 2 comprises an ideal division of the tile into several parts by means of two or more axes of symmetry of the face 2, in each of said ideal parts the ridges 3 and furrows 4 lying substantially parallel to each other and directed from the central region towards the periphery.
  • said ideal division is obtained by the two central axes A and B of the face 2, in each of the four ideal parts obtained the ridges 3 and the furrows 4 being substantially parallel to that diagonal of the face 2 which passes through the respective ideal part.
  • the ridges 3 of two adjacent ideal parts are joined together in pairs by a ridge portion 3'at those ends close to the central axes A and B.
  • the arrangement of the ridges 3 on the face 2 is such that any section through the tile taken on a plane parallel to one of the two axes A and B intersects a number of ridges 3.
  • the cross-sectional shape of the ridges 3 can be of any type, for example trapezium shaped as the ridges of known tiles; the dimensions (height and width) of these ridges are also substantially equal to those of the ridges of known tiles, ie about one millimetre in height and a few millimetres in width.
  • a perimetral ridge 5 is provided, its presence being dictated by structural reasons in that it considerably favours planarity of the major faces of the tile.
  • the perimetral ridge 5 does not however create a large obstacle to air evacuation, although for this reason it would be preferable that it were absent.
  • Tiles with surface dimensions of 30 cm x 30 cm were pressed using a SITI 1500 T press acting simultaneously on three moulds (ie a multiple mould with three impressions); said moulds are of the so-called "mirror" type with the upper punch defining the front face of the tile, and mobile together with the perimetral die, the lower punch being fixed.
  • the percentage of tiles manifesting at least one small internal air pocket (bubble) was as follows:
  • the second test was conducted in the same manner as the 1st test but using a SITI 1700 T press acting simultaneously on two "mirror-plate" moulds for tiles with surface dimensions of 40 cm x 40 cm (again at a frequency of 11.5 cycles per minute).
  • the percentage of defective tiles was as follows:
