Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a set of bricks of glass.
  • Document EP-0 853 167 discloses an element in glass bricks for fire-resistant wall part consisting of two hollow glass bricks joined by their viewing surface, a sticky mass being interposed between their viewing surface to connect hollow bricks, so that the hollow bricks form a unit.
  • the adhesive mass disposed on the viewing surface is crossed by the light.
  • the sticky mass affects the transparency of the element of glass bricks and darkens the appearance of the brick element of glass.
  • the sticky mass is altered by the light or heat, which leads to alteration and opacification of the sticky mass. Therefore, the sticky mass risk to prevent a satisfactory vision through the element consisting of glass bricks.
  • the present invention relates to a set of bricks of glass making it possible to improve characteristics of resistance to heat and burglary, while maintaining a transparency of the set of glass bricks to allow a satisfactory vision and a satisfactory passage of light through the set of bricks of glass.
  • Such a set of hollow glass bricks comprises at least two hollow glass bricks each with two surfaces opposing frontal vision and a lateral surface, the bricks being arranged so that a frontal surface of a brick is look at a frontal surface of the other brick.
  • the bricks are connected by a connecting element arranged the outside of an intermediate space between the front surfaces bricks.
  • the connecting element placed outside the space intermediate located between the front surfaces of the bricks opposes not the passage of light through the set of bricks.
  • the connecting element is not exposed to light, which allows to avoid alteration over time.
  • the glass bricks are in direct contact by their front surfaces facing each other.
  • the set of glass bricks includes a glass plate interposed between the front surfaces bricks.
  • the interposed glass plate makes it possible to increase resistance to the passage of heat or burglary.
  • the plate of interposed glass does not oppose the passage of light and is not impaired by light over time.
  • a front surface of a brick present on an outer edge a peripheral bead by which it may come into contact with a peripheral bead of the surface frontal of the other brick or an interposed glass plate.
  • the predicting a peripheral bead coming into contact with the surface front of the other brick or an interposed plate allows provide a space between a central portion of the front surface of the glass block and the front surface of the other brick or plate interposed, which improves transmission resistance heat.
  • a connecting element is presented under the form of an adhesive joint surrounding a zone of direct contact between bricks or between a brick and a glass plate interposed between bricks, and connecting the glass bricks together.
  • the glue joint surrounding areas of direct contact is not located in a zone of passage of light.
  • the glue joint connecting the bricks together allows to maintain between the bricks, as well as a glass plate interposed between the bricks.
  • a link element present in the form of an adhesive tape surrounding the bricks of glass at an intermediate space between the front surfaces bricks, the longitudinal edges of the adhesive tape being fixed on the side surfaces of the bricks.
  • the tape attached to the lateral surfaces of the bricks makes it possible to bricks without the ribbon being interposed between the front surfaces bricks and does not oppose the passage of light.
  • the bricks may be in direct contact or spaced apart.
  • the adhesive tape may be provided with a separating bead come in between side edges side surfaces of the bricks for maintain a distance between the bricks while being located at the outside of the space between the frontal surfaces of vision of bricks.
  • a hollow glass brick has a cavity limited by two opposite end walls and a side wall.
  • the connecting element is vapor-tight of water to ensure the sealing of an intermediate space formed between the frontal surfaces of the bricks.
  • a set of glass bricks comprises two glass bricks 1, 2 held together by an adhesive joint 3.
  • a hollow glass brick 1, 2 has a cavity 4 limited by two end walls of opposing visions 5, 6 substantially parallel, and a side wall 7 extending perpendicularly between the front walls 5, 6 and having a closed contour.
  • a brick 1, 2 have on its front walls 5, 6 front surfaces 8 facing outwards, the front surfaces having a portion central plane 9, and being provided on their outer edge with a bead 10 projecting from the plane of the central portion 9 on the opposite the cavity 4 of the brick 1.2.
  • a bead 10 present in section a rounded profile whose top, that is to say the most away from the plane of the flat central portion 9 of the front surface 8 in a direction perpendicular to the flat central portion, form substantially the limit of the frontal area of vision.
  • a brick 1, 2 has on the outside of its side wall 7 a lateral surface 11 which joins the surface of the bead 10 by a rounded portion 11a.
  • a hollow brick 1, 2 can be obtained in a manner known in from two half-hulls, each half hull being under the shape of a front wall and a skirt extending perpendicularly at the front wall.
  • Two corresponding half-shells are attached for form a hollow brick by joining the free ends of their peripheral skirts and fixing them, for example by welding, as this is the case in the illustrated embodiment where one can see a weld bead 12 located on the side wall 7, substantially at least distance between the two end walls 5, 6 of the bricks 1, 2.
  • the bricks 1, 2 are arranged so that surfaces frontal 8 bricks 1, 2 are located opposite, that is to say that the bricks are aligned in a direction of vision that is a direction perpendicular to the plane of the frontal surfaces of vision 8.
  • the bricks 1, 2 are in direct contact through their beads 10.
  • the glue joint 3 is disposed on the lateral surface 11 facing the outside of the glass bricks 1, 2 in the plane of contact between the glass bricks 1, 2, surrounding the contact zone direct between the beads 10 of the front surfaces 8 of the bricks hollow 1, 2.
  • the adhesive seal 3 is disposed in a hollow formed by between the rounded edges 11a of side surfaces of bricks 1, 2.
  • the side surfaces 11 are not provided on their edges of rounding, in which case it could nevertheless be arranged the glue joint on the side surfaces so that it connects the glass bricks.
  • the glass bricks 1, 2 are glass bricks of the type standard.
  • the contact of the glass bricks by their surface frontal vision and the arrangement of the glue seal on the surface side of glass bricks 1, 2 makes it possible to connect glass bricks 1, 2 by the glue joint to hold them so that they form unit while avoiding interposing the glue joint between the frontal surfaces of vision of the glass bricks 1, 2, so that the glue joint is not crossed by the light.
  • the glue joint is disposed beyond the frontal surfaces of vision 8 limited by tops of peripheral beads 10. As a result, this seal of glue does not oppose the passage of light and will not be altered by light over time.
  • front surfaces 8 glass bricks 1, 2 being provided with 10 beads, it forms between the glass bricks a cavity 13 filled with air to increase resistance to transmission of heat from the set of glass bricks.
  • a third hollow brick 14 contiguous to the second hollow brick 2 on the opposite side to the first hollow brick 1, the hollow brick 14 coming into contact from the top of a peripheral bead 10 of a frontal surface of vision 8 with a bead 10 of a front surface 8 of the second hollow brick 2 oriented on the opposite side to the first brick 1.
  • the second brick 2 and the third brick 14 are connected together by a glue joint disposed on the side surfaces 11 of the second and third bricks hollow 2, 14.
  • a first glass plate 15 is interposed between the first hollow brick 1 and the second hollow brick 2, a second glass plate 16 being interposed between the second hollow brick and the third hollow brick 14.
  • the glass plates have dimensions substantially equal to those of the frontal surfaces 8.
  • the bricks 1, 2, 14 arranged on both sides of a glass plate come into contact with the top of the peripheral beads 10 of their front surface 8 of both sides of the interposed glass plate.
  • a seal of glue 3 is disposed on the side surfaces 11 of two bricks of glass and a side surface of the interposed glass plate.
  • the glue joint 3 surrounds the areas of direct contact between the glass bricks and the interposed plate while directly connecting the adjacent glass bricks.
  • the glue joint 3 allows a maintenance glass bricks as well as the interposed glass plate between the glass bricks.
  • Figure 4 shows a set of glass bricks similar to that of Figure 1 except that the glue joint is replaced by an adhesive tape 18 in the form of a band 19 extending longitudinally in one direction perpendicular to the plane of the figure and provided on one side of a rib longitudinal center 20.
  • An adhesive is placed on the face of the band 19 located on the side of the central rib 20, on both sides laterally of the central vein 20.
  • the adhesive tape 18 is placed on the glass bricks 1, 2 in surrounding the side surfaces of glass bricks up to the plane contact between the glass bricks 1, 2.
  • the ribbon adhesive 18 comes into contact with an edge 18a with the outer surface 11 of the first glass block 1 and an opposite edge 18b with the side surface 11 of the second hollow glass brick 2.
  • the ribbon adhesive 18 is centered so that the longitudinal rib 20 is substantially in the contact plane between the hollow glass bricks 1, 2.
  • the longitudinal rib 20 projects into a recess formed between the rounded edges 11a of the lateral surfaces 11 of the bricks 1, 2.
