Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that although a construction efficiency is outstandingly improved by using a conventional method of mosaic tiles employing a sheet sticking tile unit that for instance, tiles of length 45 mm × width 95 mm are arranged in three columns and six rows, a sheet is stuck from a front surface thereof, the obtained sheet sticking tile unit is stuck to a wall surface, and then, only the sheet is peeled off, mortar for joints needs to be applied to joint parts in a finishing step and time and labor are necessary for peeling off the sheet. <P>SOLUTION: A relief pattern in which the plurality of mosaic tiles 3 are arranged on a plate shaped base part 2 is formed. A tile panel 1 formed by applying joint materials 5 to recessed groove parts 4 of the relief pattern is provided. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a tile panel attached to a floor or a wall surface.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, a mosaic tile is constructed by applying mortar to a floor or a wall surface and applying the mortar to the joint, and then applying joint mortar to the joint. The most common construction method for mosaic tiles today is, for example, tiles 45 mm long and 95 mm wide arranged in 3 rows and 6 lines and pasted from the table. Later, only the front paper is peeled off.

[0003]

Although the construction efficiency is dramatically improved by adopting the above paper-attached tile unit, the mortar for joints still has to be applied to the joints at the finishing stage, and the paper is peeled off. It also takes time and effort to work. In addition, there are many problems to be solved, such as using a large amount of water to peel off the paper and disposing of the peeled paper as garbage.

The present invention has been made in view of the above, and an object thereof is to provide a tile panel capable of dramatically improving the construction efficiency.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention forms a relief pattern in which a plurality of mosaic tiles are arranged on a plate-shaped base portion, and further, a joint material is formed in a concave groove portion of the relief pattern. There is provided a tile panel formed by coating. The “mosaic tile” in the present invention is used in the sense of being a small tile, and is not intended to limit the surface area to 50 cm ² or less, or to limit the shape.

The tile panel of the present invention corresponds to a plurality of mosaic tiles, and since the painting of the joint material is completed, is it necessary to fill the joint material?
Alternatively, since the joint material may be filled in the joint portion between the tile panels, the construction efficiency at the site is dramatically improved.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, a tile panel can be formed by forming a low step portion having a depth substantially the same as that of the recessed groove of the embossed pattern on the peripheral edge portion and coating the joint material also on the low step portion. Since it is not necessary to apply joint material to the joints between them, workability is further improved.

If a plurality of mounting holes are formed in the tile panel and nails or screws are driven into the mounting holes to be mounted on the tile adhering surface, the mortar for the base is applied. There is no need to do it, and tiles can be easily installed inside or outside the existing building.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 is a front view of the tile panel, FIG. 2 is a front view of the tile panel before application of the joint material, and FIG. 3 is a partially enlarged sectional view showing a peripheral edge portion of the tile panel.

The tile panel 1, as shown in FIG.
An embossed pattern in which a plurality of mosaic tiles 3, 3, ... Is arranged is formed on a plate-shaped base part 2 having a side of approximately 300 mm, and as shown in FIG. It is formed by applying the joint material 5 such as. Further, in the tile panel 1, a low step portion 6 having the same depth as the recessed groove portion 4 having an embossed pattern and having a half width is formed on the entire peripheral edge portion, and the joint material 5 is also applied to the low step portion 6. Is.

Next, a method of manufacturing the tile panel 1 will be described. First, the clay for tiles is put into a mold and pressure-molded, and the relief pattern is formed on the surface of the base portion 2 by the molding engraving surface of the upper mold or the lower mold of the mold. Then, this is fired under the same conditions as the normal tile. It should be noted that, if necessary, for example, a pattern or the like that finishes in a soot atmosphere is printed on the surface and baked. Then, the joint material 5 is applied to the embossed groove portion 4 and dried.

The tile panel 1 of the present invention is configured as described above, and is arranged in order while being attached to the wall surface of a building with an adhesive. This tile panel 1 corresponds to a plurality of mosaic tiles, and since the application of the joint material 5 is completed, the finishing step of filling the joint material is unnecessary. Moreover, since the joint material 5 is also applied to the peripheral edge portion, it is not necessary to apply the joint material to the joint between the tile panels 1.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to the embodiments, the present invention is of course not limited to the above embodiments. For example, although the tile panel 1 is adhered to the tile adhering surface with an adhesive in the embodiment, a plurality of mounting holes 7 are formed in the concave groove portion 4 of the tile panel 1 as shown by the dashed line in FIG. Alternatively, a nail or a screw may be driven into the mounting hole 7 to be mounted on the tile adhering surface. Then, after driving the nail or screw, the joint material 5 is applied to the head of the nail or screw to hide it. It is also possible to provide a mounting hole in the portion of the mosaic tile 3 having an embossed pattern and drive a nail or the like into the mounting hole. Further, in the embodiment, the low step portion 6 is formed on the entire peripheral edge portion of the tile panel 1. However, for example, in FIG. Alternatively, the lower step portion 6 may be formed. In this case, the width of the low step portion 6 may be substantially the same as that of the concave groove portion 4.

[0014]

The tile panel of the present invention corresponds to a plurality of mosaic tiles, and since the coating of the joint material is completed, the tile filling work is unnecessary or the tile is not used. Since it is only necessary to fill the joints between the panels with joint material, the construction efficiency at the site is dramatically improved. In addition, since the work itself is simple and does not require special skills, even an amateur can easily finish a mosaic tiled wall surface or floor surface. Furthermore, since the groove portion of the tile panel is extremely shallow as compared with the original joint, it is possible to drastically reduce the amount of joint material used.

Further, as in claim 2, when a low step portion having substantially the same depth as the recessed groove portion of the relief pattern is formed in the peripheral portion and the joint material is also applied to the low step portion, the tile panel is formed. Workability is further improved because it is not necessary to apply joint material to the joints between them.

When a plurality of mounting holes are formed in the tile panel and nails or screws are driven into the mounting holes to be mounted on the tile adhering surface, the mortar for the base is applied. There is no need, and the effect is that tiles can be easily installed inside or outside the existing building.
