Description

Brick for construction.

Object of the invention

The present Utility Model application Its purpose is to register a brick that incorporates notable innovations and advantages over other bricks or similar known in the prior art.

More specifically, the invention makes reference to a brick for construction, comprising a body monobloc with a top and bottom base and side walls provided inside through holes, one of the sloping side walls.

Background of the invention

Today there is a large market variety of bricks destined to the construction sector that they differ basically in the use of the materials used as well as in their internal configurations, without having account for improvements in terms of properties bioclimatic, so there is still a need to find new solutions as provided in the invention.

Also, in none of the known bricks by the applicant, the existence of an invention that  have the features described in this memory.

Description of the invention

The present invention has been developed with the in order to provide a brick that solves the inconveniences previously mentioned, also providing other advantages additional that will be evident from the description that is accompanies next.

It is therefore an object of the present invention provide a brick for construction that it comprises a monobloc body made from clay with a upper and lower base and side walls provided in its interior of through holes, and is characterized by the fact that one of the side walls has an inclined surface descending at an angle of approximately 45 ° with respect to the lower base, defining a portion of rectangular profile and a second portion of rectangular triangular profile by way of cantilever It will be understood in this invention that the term "rectangular" implies both a rectangular geometry and quadrangular.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, through holes located in the triangular profile portion they have a larger profile with respect to the gaps located in the rectangular profile portion, in order to lighten in weight the angular area and in turn allow the mass to flood the meeting profiles resulting in the continuity of the material not be interrupted or decompensated due to lack of mass between bricks.

Preferably, the upper base is provided of a plurality of longitudinally arranged grooves and equidistant.

The lower base, in the section corresponding to the rectangular profile portion is provided with a plurality of grooves arranged longitudinally and equidistantly.

Advantageously, in the section of the base bottom near the corner with the inclined side wall It has at least one pair of grooves arranged longitudinally that act as drips that facilitate water evacuation than by liquid surface tension could trace the piece inwards. In this way, the brick can stay dry regardless of influence of the wind during the rain since even when the rain takes a very steep slope due to the wind, the roof inclined of a construction generates an inertia to said current of water away from the supporting body of the brick, thus avoiding the revocation of ventilated walls.

Additionally, the inclined wall may be coated with a glaze or ceramic glaze.

Thanks to these characteristics, you get a novel brick specially designed for ventilated walls in the construction field that avoids the additional use of plasters and improving the cooling of the building. in places or warm seasons, highlighting the possibility of make new constructive designs. Thus, in the months of heat, the cantilever shadow of the brick is projected on the facade preserving the housing from the extreme sun and lowering the temperatures several degrees.

This air conditioning aspect avoids the use of synthetic materials that preserve the wall of moisture, such as it is currently happening that they can also be harmful about Health. Therefore, the brick of the invention allows the housing breathe naturally taking full advantage of insulating and thermal qualities at the same time.

The cantilever or triangular profile portion guarantees that the built wall remains 80% dry on the total surface area and at least 60% in extreme conditions moisture. The 45 ° inclination of the side view face allows curtain evacuation along a facade, allowing its constant hyperventilation and drying said brick before the Water comes to touch the built wall.

Other features and advantages of brick object of the present invention will be apparent from the description of a preferred, but not exclusive, embodiment illustrates by way of non-limiting example in the drawings that are accompany, in which:

Brief description of the drawings

Figure 1.- It is a plan view of a brick according to the invention; Y

Figure 2.- It is a side elevation view of a first embodiment of the brick of the invention; Y

Figure 3.- It is a side elevation view of a second embodiment of the brick of the invention.

Description of a preferred embodiment

In view of these figures, it can be seen as the brick consists of a monobloc body (1) made from clay, such as ferruginous clay cooked to low temperature of approximately 950 ° and with known methods so it will not go into greater detail, with a higher base (1a) and bottom (1b) and side walls (1c-1f) provided inside through holes (2). Side wall (1d) corresponding to the face seen has a surface inclined downward with an angle of approximately 45 ° with with respect to the lower base (1b), defining a portion (A) of rectangular profile and a second portion (B) of triangular profile rectangular delimited in the figures by lines discontinuous

In the embodiment shown in Figure 2, the through holes (2) located in the triangular profile portion (B) they have a larger profile with respect to the gaps located in the rectangular profile portion (A) while in the Figure 3 There is no such difference. In both cases, these gaps interns (2) allow the passage of possible pipes or facilities ducts located in the building to be built With such bricks.

In both embodiments, in the section of the base bottom near the corner with the inclined side wall has a pair of grooves (3) arranged longitudinally acting as means of evacuating water from the rain.

This inclined face (1d) can be used to support mode for the incorporation of small plates solar energy collectors with a simple anchoring system and taking advantage of the interior pitched slant (1d) for the conduction passage in a hidden way.

It is possible that the inclined wall (1d) may be coated with a glaze or ceramic glaze colored (not shown) that waterproofs its surface and with the possibility of creating varied color games.

The details, the shapes, the dimensions and other accessory elements, as well as the materials used in the brick manufacturing of the invention may be conveniently substituted by others that are technically equivalent and do not depart from the essentiality of the invention nor of the scope defined by the claims included in continuation.
