The glass brick 1 has a thick portion 4 formed between the two surfaces 2 and 3, and a projection edge 6 is provided at the center of an outer peripheral edge 5 of the thick portion 4. Outer peripheral edges 5a, 5b on both sides of the projection edge 6 are lattice frames 9a, 10a to be described later.
It is formed in a size that can be fitted inside. The glass brick 1 has a shallow depression 2a formed on one surface 2 and a shallow depression 3a formed on the other surface.

The glass brick 1 is assembled in an assembling direction in a mounting fixture 7 to form a glass brick wall 8.

The assembling fixture 7 comprises a pair of front and back lattice members 9, 10. Each of the lattice members 9 and 10 has a plurality of lattice frames 9a and 10a fitted in the outer peripheral edges 5a and 5b of the glass brick 1 in the weft direction.

The one grid member 9 is a glass brick 1
The screw hole 11 is formed at the intersection at the intersection, facing the protruding edge 6, and being closed on the other surface, that is, on the front side. At the edge of the grid member 9, a plurality of mounting pieces 9A for fixing to the opening via screws 9B are provided.

The other grid member 10 includes grid members 12, 1
And 3. One of the lattice members 12 is formed at the intersection with a groove portion 14 that opens to the rear of the protruding edge 6, and the other lattice member 13 is formed in a rod shape that fits into the groove portion 14 and closes in the longitudinal direction. A through hole 15 is formed in the groove 14, and the through hole 15 is coaxial with the screw hole 11. A flat head umbrella screw 16 penetrates through the through hole 15 and is screwed into the screw hole 11.

Can be screwed up.

The lattice members 9 and 10 are fixed to an opening frame 17 disposed at an appropriate opening.

Further, on the outer peripheral edge 5 of the glass brick 1,
Elastic cushioning material (sealing material) made of rubber, resin, etc. for protection, soundproofing, waterproofing, wind resistance, etc. of the glass brick 1
18 are arranged. 3 and 11, the cushioning material 18 is shown as covering only the corners of the projecting edge 6 of the outer peripheral edge 5, but is provided so as to cover the entire periphery of the projecting edge 6, or It may be provided so as to cover the entire circumference of the thick portion 4 including the projection edge 6 (see FIG. 4).

Next, the construction of the glass brick wall 8 according to the present invention having the above structure will be described.

First, the opening frame 17 is positioned at an appropriate opening.
Is fixed, one of the grid members 9 of the pair of front and back grid members 9 and 10 is fixed around the mounting piece 9A via screws 9B. Next, while the glass blocks 1 are sequentially laminated from the lower side to the upper side in the lattice frame 9a of the lattice member 9, the lattice member 10a in the weft direction of the other lattice member 10 is made to face one lattice member 9. The umbrella screw 16 is inserted through the through hole 15 formed in the groove 14 of the lattice member 10 into one lattice member 9.
Is screwed up to the screw hole 11 formed. Thereafter, the glass material 1 is fitted into the groove portion 14 of the other grid member 10, so that the glass block 1 is connected to the grid frames 9a, 10a.
The outer peripheries 5a and 5b are fitted into each other, and the glass brick wall 8 is formed by assembling with the protruding edges 6 being sandwiched.

As described above, the umbrella screw 16 for fastening the two lattice members 9 and 10 is not exposed to the outside in the screw hole 11 whose tip end is closed, and the head side is fitted into the groove 14. Since it is not concealed by the lattice member 13 and is not exposed to the outside, the glass block wall 8 having an excellent appearance can be constructed.

Further, since the grid members 9 are formed in an intersecting shape in advance, the time required to intersect in the weft direction at the site becomes unnecessary, so that the construction period can be shortened.

FIG. 13 shows another lattice member 10 of another embodiment.
The lattice material 13 is a portion that fits into the groove 14 of the lattice material 12 in the weft direction, that is,
A through hole 14A is formed at the intersection. This is achieved by screwing the umbrella screw 16 into the screw hole 11 from the through hole 14A to securely connect the grid material 13 to the grid material 1.
2 can be fixed. In this case, umbrella screw 16
Although the head is exposed to the outside, it is exposed in a buried state in the through-hole 14A, so that the appearance is not impaired.

[0022]

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, one of the lattice members is formed in an intersecting shape in advance, so that the time required to intersect in the weft direction at the site becomes unnecessary, so that the construction period is shortened. One of the lattice members has a threaded hole that opens at the intersection and faces the protruding edge and is closed on the front side, and the other lattice member has a groove that opens at the intersection at the back of the protruding edge. Is formed, the screw screwed from the through hole formed in the groove toward the screw hole, the tip side is hidden in one lattice member, the head side is in the groove of the lattice material in the weft direction. Since the mesh members are hidden by the fitted lattice members in the longitudinal direction and are not exposed to the outside, the aesthetic appearance can be improved without the screws being in the way. An elastic cushioning material is provided on the outer periphery of the glass brick, and the cushioning material tightly integrates the glass block and the assembly fixture so that soundproofing, waterproofing, wind resistance, etc. Not only is excellent in effect, but also can prevent and protect the glass block from being damaged even when subjected to an external impact.
