Description

La présente invention concerne un bloc de construction destiné à la réalisation d'un angle de mur de bâtiment.The present invention relates to a building block intended the realization of a building wall angle.

Il est connu de réaliser un angle, généralement un angle obtus, au niveau d'un mur, en employant des blocs de construction dont certains présentent une extrémité longitudinale arrondie de forme convexe, et d'autres une extrémité longitudinale arrondie de forme concave. Un bloc à extrémité concave peut être placé dans le prolongement d'un bloc à extrémité convexe, selon l'angle désiré, de telle sorte que son extrémité concave soit engagée autour de l'extrémité convexe de l'autre élément, et réciproquement.It is known to make an angle, generally an obtuse angle, at a wall, using building blocks some of which have a rounded longitudinal end of convex shape, and others a rounded longitudinal end of concave shape. A block to concave end can be placed in the extension of a block to convex end, at the desired angle, so that its end concave is engaged around the convex end of the other element, and reciprocally.

Les blocs de construction existants ont pour inconvénients d'être relativement complexes et onéreux à fabriquer et à exploiter, du fait de l'obligation de réaliser et de commercialiser deux types d'élément. Il est ainsi nécessaire de prévoir deux types de fabrication, de gérer deux stocks de produits différents, et d'emballer et de livrer simultanément les deux séries de produits.Disadvantages of existing building blocks to be relatively complex and expensive to manufacture and operate, because the obligation to produce and market two types of element. It is thus necessary to provide two types of manufacturing, to manage two stocks of different products, and to package and deliver both series of products.

Il existe des blocs de construction permettant de remédier partiellement à cette situation : chacun de ces blocs comprend, sur la même extrémité longitudinale, une partie arrondie de forme convexe s'étendant sur la moitié de la hauteur du bloc et une partie arrondie de forme concave s'étendant sur l'autre moitié de cette hauteur, et chaque bloc est symétrique par rapport à son plan longitudinal médian ; un bloc peut ainsi être retourné par rapport à un bloc adjacent, de telle sorte que les parties arrondies concave et convexe des extrémités adjacentes de ces deux blocs puissent venir en imbrication réciproque.There are building blocks to remedy partially to this situation: each of these blocks includes, on the same longitudinal end, a rounded part of convex shape extending over half the height of the block and a rounded part of concave shape extending over the other half of this height, and each block is symmetrical with respect to its median longitudinal plane; a block can thus be turned over in relation to an adjacent block, so that the concave and convex rounded parts of the adjacent ends of these two blocks can come in reciprocal nesting.

Cette technique permet de ne fabriquer qu'un seul type de bloc, mais a pour inconvénient d'obliger à ce que les blocs soient symétriques par rapport à leur plan longitudinal médian. En outre, la forme des blocs est relativement complexe, ce qui conduit à l'utilisation de moules en plusieurs parties, et interdit l'utilisation de techniques de fabrication avantageuses dans ce type d'application, en particulier une fabrication par extrusion.This technique makes it possible to manufacture only one type of block, but has the drawback of forcing the blocks to be symmetrical from their median longitudinal plane. In addition, the shape of the blocks is relatively complex, which leads to the use of multiple molds parties, and prohibits the use of advantageous manufacturing techniques in this type of application, in particular extrusion manufacturing.

La présente invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients essentiels.The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks essentials.

A cet effet, le bloc de construction qu'elle concerne comprend :

  • une partie présentant une extrémité de forme convexe, cette partie étant propre à constituer un élément de construction à extrémité de forme convexe, ou une moitié d'un tel élément de construction ;
  • une partie présentant une extrémité de forme concave, cette partie étant propre à constituer un élément de construction à extrémité de forme concave, ou une moitié d'un tel élément de construction, cette extrémité de forme concave étant propre à être engagée autour de l'extrémité de forme convexe d'un élément de construction à extrémité de forme convexe, selon l'angle du mur à réaliser ; et
  • une partie intermédiaire ruptible, reliant les deux parties précitées du bloc de construction et susceptible d'être rompue lors de la construction du mur pour séparer ces deux parties et constituer ainsi les deux éléments de construction précités, ou les deux moitiés d'élément de construction précitées.
To this end, the building block it concerns includes:
  • a part having a convex end, this part being suitable for constituting a construction element with a convex end, or a half of such a construction element;
  • a part having a concave-shaped end, this part being suitable for constituting a construction element with a concave-shaped end, or a half of such a construction element, this concave-shaped end being suitable for being engaged around the convex end of a building element with convex end, according to the angle of the wall to be produced; and
  • a breakable intermediate part, connecting the two aforementioned parts of the building block and capable of being broken during the construction of the wall to separate these two parts and thus constitute the two aforementioned construction elements, or the two halves of construction element mentioned above.

L'invention fournit un bloc de construction comprenant une partie à extrémité de forme concave et une partie à extrémité de forme convexe reliées entre elles par une partie intermédiaire ruptible, la rupture de cette partie intermédiaire intervenant au moment de la construction du mur. Un outillage unique peut donc être utilisé pour fabriquer ce bloc, et les blocs fabriqués sont identiques, de sorte qu'il n'est pas besoin de fabriquer, gérer, emballer et livrer deux séries de blocs différents mais une seule série de blocs de construction identiques.The invention provides a building block comprising a concave shaped end part and shaped end part convex connected together by a breakable intermediate part, the break of this intermediate part intervening at the time of construction of the Wall. A single tool can therefore be used to manufacture this block, and the manufactured blocks are identical, so there is no need to manufacture, manage, package and deliver two different series of blocks but only one series of identical building blocks.

Avantageusement, les différentes parties précitées du bloc sont profilées, et ces parties sont réalisées dans un même matériau, ladite partie intermédiaire étant constituée par des voiles de ce matériau, qui relient lesdites parties comprenant les extrémités de forme concave et convexe.Advantageously, the various aforementioned parts of the block are sections, and these parts are made of the same material, said part intermediate consisting of sails of this material, which connect said parts comprising the ends of concave and convex shape.

Le bloc selon l'invention peut ainsi être réalisé dans son ensemble par extrusion d'un matériau couramment utilisé pour fabriquer de tels éléments de construction, en particulier en argile utilisée pour fabriquer des briques. Du béton cellulaire peut également être utilisé pour fabriquer ce bloc.The block according to the invention can thus be produced in its together by extrusion of a material commonly used to manufacture such building elements, in particular clay used to manufacture bricks. Aerated concrete can also be used to make this block.

Selon une possibilité, les faces des parties comprenant les extrémités de forme convexe et concave qui sont reliées à ladite partie intermédiaire sont les faces transversales des éléments de construction, ou moitiés d'éléments de construction, destinées à venir à l'intérieur du mur à construire. According to one possibility, the faces of the parts comprising the convex and concave ends which are connected to said part intermediate are the transverse faces of the building elements, or halves of building elements, intended to come inside the wall to to build.

La rupture de cette partie intermédiaire ne laisse aucune trace visible sur l'extérieur des éléments de construction, une fois ceux-ci mis en place dans le mur.The rupture of this intermediate part leaves no trace visible on the outside of the building elements, once they have been place in the wall.

Selon une autre possibilité, les parties comprenant les extrémités de forme convexe et concave sont reliées à ladite partie intermédiaire par leurs faces délimitant ces extrémités de forme convexe et concave, ces faces étant disposées de manière à se longer l'une l'autre.Alternatively, the parts comprising the convex and concave ends are connected to said part intermediate by their faces delimiting these ends of convex shape and concave, these faces being arranged so as to run alongside one another.

Le bloc ainsi conformé a pour avantage d'être facile à manutentionner et à emballer compte tenu de sa forme.The advantage of this block is that it is easy to handle and pack given its shape.

Lesdites parties à extrémités de forme convexe et concave peuvent, après rupture de ladite partie intermédiaire, constituer totalement deux éléments de construction. Dans ce cas, les parties à extrémités convexe et concave présentent respectivement des extrémités arrondies convexe et concave de forme sensiblement hémi-cylindrique. Ces mêmes parties peuvent ne constituer qu'une moitié des éléments de construction correspondants, les éléments de construction complets étant réalisés par regroupement des portions d'éléments de construction provenant de deux blocs de construction. Dans ce cas, chaque bloc a une largeur correspondant à la moitié du mur à réaliser ; la partie à extrémité convexe comprend deux faces latérales parallèles, dont une se prolonge par une face convexe s'étendant jusque dans le plan de l'autre face latérale, soit sur un angle au centre de sensiblement 90° ; la partie à extrémité concave comprend quant à elle deux faces latérales parallèles de longueurs différentes, dont les extrémités sont réunies par une face concave de forme sensiblement inverse à celle de la face convexe de l'autre partie.Said convex and concave end portions may, after rupture of said intermediate part, constitute completely two building elements. In this case, the end parts convex and concave respectively have rounded ends convex and concave of substantially semi-cylindrical shape. These same parts may constitute only half of the building elements corresponding, the complete construction elements being produced by grouping of portions of building elements from two building blocks. In this case, each block has a width corresponding to half of the wall to be made; the convex end part includes two parallel side faces, one of which is extended by a convex side extending to the plane of the other lateral face, i.e. at an angle at the center of substantially 90 °; the concave end part includes two parallel side faces of lengths different, whose ends are joined by a concave shaped face substantially opposite to that of the convex face of the other part.

Avantageusement, la partie à extrémité convexe de chaque bloc comprend un évidement qui la traverse de part en part dans le sens vertical de l'élément de construction, les différents évidements des éléments de construction superposés au sein du mur délimitant conjointement une cavité verticale qui s'étend sur la hauteur du mur, cavité dans laquelle un ferraillage peut être mis en place et du béton peut être coulé pour assurer la rigidification définitive du mur au niveau dudit angle.Advantageously, the convex end portion of each block includes a recess running right through it in the vertical direction of the building element, the different recesses of the elements of construction superimposed within the wall jointly delimiting a vertical cavity which extends over the height of the wall, cavity in which a reinforcement can be put in place and concrete can be poured to ensure the final stiffening of the wall at said angle.

De préférence, dans ce cas, ledit évidement a une section transversale circulaire, lorsque ladite partie à extrémité convexe est destinée à constituer l'intégralité de l'élément de construction, ou a une section transversale hémi-circulaire, lorsque cette même partie est destinée à ne constituer que la moitié dudit élément de construction.Preferably, in this case, said recess has a section transverse circular, when said convex end portion is intended to constitute the entire building element, or has a semi-circular cross section, when this same part is intended to constitute only half of said construction element.

De préférence, les parties à extrémités convexe et concave précitées ont un rapport de longueur allant de sensiblement un à deux.Preferably, the parts with convex and concave ends above have a length ratio ranging from substantially one to two.

Les longueurs différentes de ces parties permettent de décaler les joints entre deux éléments de construction adjacents au sein du mur, d'une rangée d'éléments de construction à la rangée voisine verticalement.The different lengths of these parts allow to shift the joints between two adjacent building elements within the wall, from one row of building elements to the next row vertically.

En outre, de préférence, chacune desdites parties à extrémité convexe et à extrémité concave comprend, au niveau de sa face transversale destinée à être placée contre un bloc de construction adjacent au sein du mur, au moins une rainure propre à être remplie par le matériau de jointoiement des éléments de construction, ou propre à recevoir au moins une nervure correspondante d'un élément de construction adjacent que comprend le mur, pour assurer la fixation de chaque élément de construction situé au niveau dudit angle avec ledit élément de construction adjacent.In addition, preferably, each of said end portions convex and with concave end comprises, at its face cross intended to be placed against an adjacent building block within the wall, at least one groove suitable for being filled with the material jointing of construction elements, or suitable for receiving at minus a corresponding rib of an adjacent building element that the wall includes, to ensure the fixing of each element of construction located at said angle with said construction element adjacent.

Les extrémités de forme convexe et de forme concave peuvent être arrondies, permettant une infinité de positions possibles d'un élément de construction à extrémité de forme concave par rapport à un élément de construction à extrémité de forme convexe, ou peuvent comprendre des facettes, permettant de définir un nombre déterminé de positions possibles d'un élément de construction à extrémité de forme concave par rapport à un élément de construction à extrémité de forme convexe.Convex and concave shaped ends can be rounded, allowing an infinite number of possible positions of an element of construction with end of concave shape with respect to an element of convex end construction, or may include facets, allowing to define a determined number of possible positions of a building element with a concave end relative to a building element with a convex end.

  • La figure 1 représente un bloc de construction 1 comprenant une partie 2 présentant une extrémité de forme convexe, une partie 3 présentant une extrémité de forme concave et une partie intermédiaire ruptible 4.FIG. 1 represents a building block 1 comprising a part 2 having a convex end, a part 3 having a concave end and an intermediate part breakable 4.

    La partie 2 présente une face transversale 5 par laquelle elle est reliée à la partie 4, deux faces latérales parallèles 6, une face supérieure 7 et une face inférieure. L'une des deux faces 6 se prolonge par une face convexe 8 s'étendant jusque dans le plan de l'autre face 6, soit sur un angle au centre de sensiblement 90°.Part 2 has a transverse face 5 through which it is connected to part 4, two parallel lateral faces 6, an upper face 7 and a lower face. One of the two faces 6 is extended by a face convex 8 extending into the plane of the other face 6, or on a angle at the center of substantially 90 °.

    La partie 2 comprend également une rainure 10 aménagée dans son épaisseur, à partir de sa face 5, et un évidement hémi-cylindrique 11 qui la traverse de part en part dans le sens de la hauteur du bloc 1, cet évidement 11 étant aménagé à partir de la face 6 non prolongée par la face 8.Part 2 also includes a groove 10 arranged in its thickness, from its face 5, and a semi-cylindrical recess 11 which crosses it right through in the height direction of block 1, this recess 11 being arranged from face 6 not extended by the face 8.

    La partie 3 présente une face transversale 15 par laquelle elle est reliée à la partie 4, deux faces latérales parallèles 16, de longueur différente, une face supérieure 17, une face inférieure et une face concave 18 de forme sensiblement inverse à celle de la face 8.Part 3 has a transverse face 15 through which it is connected to part 4, two parallel side faces 16, of length different, an upper face 17, a lower face and a concave face 18 of substantially opposite shape to that of the face 8.

L'épaisseur de ces voiles 25, 26 est telle que ces voiles peuvent être aisément cassés sur un chantier à l'aide d'outils manuels courants, de manière à diviser le bloc 1, comme indiqué plus loin.Part 4 consists of six longitudinal sails 25, which connect parts 2 and 3 perpendicularly to faces 5 and 15, and by a transverse web 26 extending parallel to these faces 5 and 15, at equal distance from them. The thickness of these webs 25, 26 is such that these sails can be easily broken on a building site using tools current manuals, so as to divide block 1, as shown below.

    Il apparaít que l'ensemble du bloc 1 est profilé, c'est-à-dire que ce bloc 1 présente une forme constante dans la direction de la hauteur de ce bloc 1, toutes les faces des parties 2 et 3, ainsi que les voiles 25 et 26, étant parallèles à cette hauteur.It appears that the entire block 1 is profiled, that is to say that this block 1 has a constant shape in the direction of the height of this block 1, all the faces of parts 2 and 3, as well as the sails 25 and 26, being parallel to this height.

    L'ensemble du bloc 1 est réalisé dans un même matériau, notamment en argile utilisée pour la fabrication de briques ou en béton cellulaire, par une technique d'extrusion. Une telle technique est rendue possible par la structure profilée du bloc 1.The entire block 1 is made of the same material, especially clay used for making bricks or concrete cell, by an extrusion technique. Such a technique is rendered possible by the profiled structure of block 1.

    Ce matériau et l'épaisseur précitée des voiles 25 et 26 permet de diviser le bloc 1 pour constituer une moitié d'élément de construction "mâle" 32 à paroi convexe, correspondant à la partie 2, qui est montrée à la figure 2, et une moitié d'élément de construction "femelle" 33 à paroi concave, correspondant à la partie 3, qui est montrée à la figure 3.This material and the aforementioned thickness of the webs 25 and 26 allows to divide block 1 to constitute half a building element "male" 32 with convex wall, corresponding to part 2, which is shown at Figure 2, and a half of "female" building element 33 with a wall concave, corresponding to part 3, which is shown in figure 3.

    En pratique, une série de blocs 1 est fabriquée selon des procédés classiques. Le positionnement de la portion effilée 21 sur le même côté que l'évidement 11 permet d'obtenir une bonne répartition des masses au sein du bloc 1, et donc d'éviter tout risque de gauchissement de ce dernier au cours du séchage de son matériau constitutif.In practice, a series of blocks 1 is produced according to conventional processes. The positioning of the tapered portion 21 on the same side as the recess 11 allows a good distribution of the masses within block 1, and therefore avoid any risk of warping of the latter during the drying of its constituent material.

    Pour la construction d'un mur 40 tel que montré à la figure 5, comprenant un angle 41, une série de blocs 1 est livrée sur le chantier. Ces blocs 1 sont cassés au niveau des parties 4, de la manière précitée, pour constituer les moitiés d'élément 32 et 33.For the construction of a wall 40 as shown in Figure 5, comprising an angle 41, a series of blocks 1 is delivered to the site. These blocks 1 are broken at the level of parts 4, in the aforementioned manner, to constitute the element halves 32 and 33.

    La figure 4 montre que deux moitiés d'élément 32 provenant de deux blocs peuvent être mises côte à côte pour constituer un élément de construction complet 320 à extrémité convexe, cette extrémité ayant une forme sensiblement hémi-cylindrique, tandis que deux moitiés d'élément de construction 33 peuvent être mises côte à côte pour constituer un élément de construction complet 330 à extrémité concave, également de forme sensiblement hémi-cylindrique.Figure 4 shows that two halves of element 32 from two blocks can be placed side by side to form an element of complete construction 320 with convex end, this end having a substantially semi-cylindrical in shape, while two element halves of construction 33 can be placed side by side to form an element complete construction 330 with concave end, also in shape substantially semi-cylindrical.

    Cette figure 4 montre qu'un élément 330 peut être placé dans le prolongement d'un élément 320, avec engagement de l'extrémité convexe de l'élément 320 dans l'extrémité concave de l'élément 330, selon plusieurs directions en fonction de l'angle 41 à réaliser, l'arrondi des faces 8 et 18 permettant de conserver un positionnement adjacent des éléments 320 et 330, et donc une continuité au mur 40.This figure 4 shows that an element 330 can be placed in the extension of an element 320, with engagement of the end convex of element 320 in the concave end of element 330, in several directions depending on the angle 41 to be produced, the rounding of sides 8 and 18 allowing to maintain an adjacent positioning of the elements 320 and 330, and therefore continuity on the wall 40.

    Il apparaít sur la figure 5 que les évidements cylindriques 11 des éléments 320 de différentes rangées de blocs qui constituent le mur 40 viennent sensiblement en regard les uns des autres et permettent la mise en place d'un ferraillage puis le coulage de béton en eux pour assurer une rigidification définitive du mur 40 au niveau de l'angle 41.It appears in Figure 5 that the cylindrical recesses 11 of elements 320 of different rows of blocks which constitute the wall 40 come close to each other and allow the setting in place of a reinforcement then pouring concrete into them to ensure a final stiffening of the wall 40 at the angle 41.

    Cette figure montre également que les longueurs respectives précitées des parties 2 et 3, donc des éléments 32 et 33, permettent de décaler les joints verticaux 50 d'assemblage de ces éléments avec d'autres éléments de construction que comprend le mur 40, d'une rangée d'éléments à une rangée d'éléments voisine dans le sens vertical.This figure also shows that the respective lengths above of parts 2 and 3, therefore elements 32 and 33, allow to offset the vertical joints 50 of assembly of these elements with others building elements that includes wall 40, of a row elements to an adjacent row of elements in the vertical direction.

    En outre, la figure 5 montre que les rainures 5 et 15 sont propres à être remplies par le matériau de jointoiement des différents éléments de construction, pour assurer la fixation de chaque élément de construction avec les différents éléments de construction adjacents.In addition, Figure 5 shows that the grooves 5 and 15 are suitable for being filled with the jointing material of the different construction elements, to secure each element of construction with the various adjacent construction elements.

    Le bloc 1 représenté à la figure 6 comprend également des parties 2 à 4 telles que précitées. Les éléments déjà décrits en référence aux figures 1 à 5 qui se retrouvent dans ce bloc sont désignés par les mêmes références numériques.Block 1 shown in Figure 6 also includes parts 2 to 4 as mentioned above. The elements already described with reference in Figures 1 to 5 which are found in this block are designated by the same reference numbers.

    Dans ce bloc 1, les parties 2 et 3 sont reliées à la partie 4 par leurs faces 8 et 18 délimitant lesdites extrémités de forme convexe et concave, ces faces 8 et 18 étant disposées de manière à se longer l'une l'autre.In this block 1, parts 2 and 3 are connected to part 4 by their faces 8 and 18 delimiting said ends of convex shape and concave, these faces 8 and 18 being arranged so as to follow one the other.

    Ce bloc 1 présente ainsi une forme globalement parallélépipédique, facile à manutentionner et à emballer.This block 1 thus has an overall shape parallelepiped, easy to handle and pack.

    La figure 6 montre en outre que la structure des parties 2 et 3 peut être alvéolaire et non pleine comme sur le bloc des figures 1 à 5, et qu'un voile 60 peut être aménagé en travers de l'évidement 11, pour rigidifier la structure de la partie 2 lors de la fabrication du bloc 1, si besoin est, ce voile 60 pouvant ensuite être cassé pour libérer ledit évidement 11.Figure 6 further shows that the structure of parts 2 and 3 may be cellular and not full as in the block of FIGS. 1 to 5, and a web 60 can be arranged across the recess 11, to stiffen the structure of part 2 during the manufacture of block 1, if necessary is, this veil 60 can then be broken to release said recess 11.

    L'invention fournit ainsi un bloc de construction destiné à la réalisation d'un angle de mur de bâtiment, permettant de remédier aux inconvénients des blocs homologues de la technique antérieure, en ce sens qu'il a une structure relativement simple et qu'il peut être fabriqué par extrusion.The invention thus provides a building block intended for the realization of a building wall angle, making it possible to remedy the disadvantages of homologous blocks of the prior art, in this sense that it has a relatively simple structure and that it can be manufactured by extrusion.
