Description

  The present invention relates to a technique for forming a tile wall by a dry construction method, and relates to a tile wall structure that can easily fix a tile and can make a tile wall with a beautiful finish.

  Conventionally, when constructing a tile wall, it has been widely performed that tiles are arrayed and adhered using a mortar or an adhesive. However, in such a construction method, since mortar or adhesive is used to fix the tiles, it takes a long time for them to harden, and in the case of outdoor construction in rainy weather. The construction work did not progress easily.

  Patent Document 1 discloses a dry construction method in which a tile is engaged and fixed without using a mortar or an adhesive. If it is a dry construction method, a quick construction work becomes possible without being influenced by the weather. However, the tile piece shown in Patent Document 1 must prepare a special tile piece in which an engagement groove that engages with a metal fitting is formed on the side surface, and a commonly used tile cannot be used. There was the difficulty of incurring high costs.

Further, the tile wall shown in Patent Document 2 forms a tile storage section partitioned into tile sizes, and elastically deforms joints forming the periphery of the tile storage section to fit and fix the tile. It is formed by. Since the tile used in Patent Document 2 does not require an engagement groove with a metal fitting, a widely used tile can be used. However, the tile is fitted and fixed by elastically deforming the joint body. Depending on the direction of the force applied to the tile, the tile may come off from the storage portion.
In addition, tiles made by firing clay and the like have a large dimensional tolerance in the thickness direction, and if the thickness dimension changes, the tile holding force of the tile storage unit varies, and if the tile holding force is weak, the tiles are further removed. It was a thing. In addition, the size of the accommodating portion has to be changed according to the size of the tile, and it is necessary to prepare a plurality of joint frames according to the type of the size of the tile.

Japanese Patent No. 3390877 JP-A-8-260667

  An object of the present invention is to provide a tile wall structure capable of easily and reliably fixing a tile by a dry construction method and forming a tile wall having a beautiful finish.

  As a result of intensive studies in view of such circumstances, the present inventors have engaged with square tiles, tile placement portions in which the tiles are arranged in a row, and the surface side of the tiles. Tiles that prevent tiles from falling off are arranged between the tile placement base with the tile placement base formed on both sides of the tile placement section and the adjacent tiles. A tile wall is formed by a joint material in which an elastically deformable pressing part that is pressed toward the presser edge and a joint part that is fixed between adjacent tiles is formed to solve the intended problem. It is.

  In addition, the tile placement base can be adjusted in units of tile placement base members by forming a tile placement base by connecting a plurality of tile placement base members connected by the engaging portion and the engaged portion. It is what.

  Furthermore, by using a leaf spring having a cross-sectional shape as the pressing portion of the joint material, the tiles can be firmly sandwiched by a strong pressing force without rattling.

  According to the tile wall structure of the present invention, since the tile is sandwiched between the tile holding edge of the tile arrangement base and the pressing portion of the joint material, the tile can be firmly fixed without rattling, and the pressing portion of the joint material is Since it can be elastically deformed, the tile can be securely fixed even if the thickness of the tile varies.

Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the invention will be described based on examples.
As shown in FIG. 1, the tile wall structure in a present Example demonstrates the example applied to the simple structure (garage) which supported the roof body Y by the support | pillar S. As shown in FIG. This is a column S decorated with a tile T, but can be applied to various wall surfaces such as an outer wall or an inner wall of a building. The tile T can be made of various materials that are commercially available, but in this embodiment, a stoneware tile is used, and its size is 145 ± 2.5 mm × 145 ± 2.5 mm in length and width. The thickness is 9 ± 1.5 mm.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a tile arrangement base on which tiles T are arranged, and is formed of two rows of tile arrangement portions 11 and 11 and tile holding edge portions 12 formed on both side edges of the tile arrangement portion 11. In this embodiment, the tile arrangement base 1 is formed of two types of tile arrangement base members 1A and 1B, and the tiles are formed on the engaging portions 13 having a groove shape formed on one side of the tile arrangement base member 1A. By engaging the engaged portions 14 formed on the other side of the arrangement base 1B, the tile arrangement base 1 in which the tile arrangement sections 11 are arranged in two rows is formed. The tile arrangement base 1 can adjust the number of tile arrangement parts 11 by connecting one or more tile arrangement base members 1A and 1B in accordance with the construction area. Although the tile arrangement base 1 of this embodiment is formed of an aluminum shape material, it may be formed by bending a metal plate.
FIG. 5 shows a tile wall construction procedure, in which the tile T is inserted from the edge of the tile placement base 1 and slid to be positioned. At this time, the tile presser edge 12 is bent inwardly in the shape of a bowl, and the presser surface 121 is engaged with the surface of the tile T to prevent the tile T from being detached from the tile placement portion 11. Yes. Since the interval between the tip portions of the opposing pressing surfaces 121 is smaller than the width of the tile T, the tile T does not come off the tile placement portion 11.

  Between the tiles T arranged in the tile arrangement unit 11 in the same row, the joint material 2 formed to have a length of one side of the tile T is arranged. The joint material 2 is formed of an extruded shape made of a synthetic resin, a joint portion 21 having a square cross section is formed at the center position, and an elastically deformable leaf spring having a cross-sectional shape on both side edges of the joint portion 21. The pressing part 22 is formed. The top part 221 of the pressing part 22 can come into contact with the back surface of the tile T, and the tile T is pressed toward the pressing surface 121 by the top part 221. When the pressing portion 22 is inserted from the edge of the tile T, the pressing portion 22 is a plate spring that can be elastically deformed. Therefore, the joint material 2 is mounted by pressing the pressing portion 22 into the back side of the tile T. Even if the thickness of the tile T varies as shown in t1> t2 shown in FIG. 7, the pressing portion 22 is an elastically deformable leaf spring, so that the tile T can be securely clamped to the pressing surface 121. In addition, both ends of the joint material 2 are regulated by positioning protrusions 111 formed integrally with the tile placement portion 11, and the end of the joint material 2 is not visually observed from the outside.

  After the tile T and the joint material 2 are repeatedly inserted into the tile placement portion 11, the joint material 2 to be inserted last is the one where the pressing portion 22 on one side is cut, and the insertion opening for the tile T and the joint material 2 is further used. The retaining member 3 to be closed is fixed to the tile arrangement base 1 with screws 4. By fixing the retaining member 3 and the column S using the screws 5, the tile arrangement base 1 is fixed to the column S via the retaining member 3, and the column S decorated with the tile T is completed.

  As described above, the tile T inserted into the tile placement portion 11 is sandwiched between the tile pressing edge portion 12 of the tile placement base 1 and the elastically deformable leaf spring pressing portion 22 of the joint material 2. Can be firmly fixed, and the fixing operation of the tile T can be easily performed by alternately inserting the tile T and the joint material 2 into the tile placement portion. Even if the thickness of the tile T changes, the elastically deformable pressing portion 22 contacts the back surface of the tile T, so that the pressing force by the pressing portion 22 acts on the back surface of the tile T, and the tile T is attached to the tile holding edge. The part 12 and the pressing part 22 can be clamped without rattling.

  In the above embodiment, the joint material 2 is formed of a shape made of a synthetic resin, but a metal shape material such as aluminum may be used. Various shapes can be employed as long as the shape of the pressing portion 22 of the joint material 2 is configured to abut against the back surface of the tile T and exert a force for pressing the tile T against the pressing surface 121. Although the tile arrangement base 1 is formed by the two tile arrangement base members 1A and 1B, the tile arrangement base 1 may be a tile arrangement base 1 in which a plurality of tile arrangement portions 11 are integrally formed.
