Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention provides a wooden brick for paving such areas with bricks by fixing the wooden bricks to areas where construction is required, such as sidewalks and parking lots. This relates to the installation framework.

[Prior Art] A wooden brick laying frame is related to a proposal by the present inventor. Generally, a holding section is formed in the frame body, and a section wall that partitions the holding section has a flange having diagonally downward elasticity. This is made up of pieces, which hold real bricks in their holding sections, and are then laid in a predetermined area to complete the wooden brick pavement (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 64-33301, etc.) .

The above-mentioned wooden brick laying frame can be used to easily and quickly construct a wooden brick pavement road without causing any difference in the height of the top surface between the wooden bricks, and in addition, The purpose is to prevent problems such as individual wooden bricks from peeling off from their base easily due to expansion and contraction due to changes in moisture conditions in roads.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] The conventional wooden brick laying frame has the above structure,
It is possible to achieve most of the above objectives.

However, in the above-mentioned holding section, the shape of the holding section usually specifies the shape and arrangement of the actual bricks to be held, and although this is technically sufficient, A paving frame that can hold wooden bricks is also attractive. In addition, it is also attractive to fill the surroundings of these wooden bricks with decorative material to bring out new appeal.

In the present invention, wooden bricks of various shapes can be freely arranged,
This was done with the aim of creating a framework that would provide the above-mentioned appeal.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The gist of the configuration of the present invention is to configure a bottom plate inside a quadrilateral frame when viewed from above, configure outer walls along the edges of the four sides, At least one of the four corners of the frame is provided with a positioning member on each front bottom plate of the outer wall on both sides of the frame for positioning the main brick placed in the frame in contact with the bottom plate. The bottom plate part is a wooden brick laying frame comprising a plurality of fixing means for fixing the positioned actual bricks.

For reasons of installation and other reasons, the frame has a generally quadrilateral outer shape when viewed from a plane, as described above.

The top surface of the bottom plate part may be simply configured to be smooth, but it may also be convenient to divide the top surface into relatively small sections and create height differences between the top surfaces of adjacent sections. is good. In particular, when the fixing means is a combination of screw holes drilled in the bottom plate that penetrate the front and back sides, and screws inserted into the screw holes from the back side, the screw holes are drilled in the lower section. It is appropriate to do so. This allows the wooden brick to be fixed without loosening when the screw is screwed into the wooden brick.

Various other means can be used as the above-mentioned fixing means.

The positioning member may have various configurations; for example, it may be a protrusion that stands up on the bottom plate at the corresponding position. Alternatively, it may be constructed of a pair of positioning plates extending inwardly orthogonally from the outer walls adjacent to each other at the corner. In the latter case, it can also serve as a stay against the outer wall.

In addition, the above-mentioned outer wall may have a plate-like structure that is simply stood up, but the base wall part stands up from the edge of each side of the above-mentioned frame, and the auxiliary wall falls down from the edge of each side of the above-mentioned frame. It is preferable that the folded wall portion is formed by a folded wall portion folded back from the upper end of the base wall portion, and the folded wall portion should be folded back with a gap between the folded wall portion and the base wall portion. It is appropriate that the overall structure has an inverted U-shape in cross section. This makes it possible to absorb the expansion of the decorative material, which will be described later and whose main material is concrete that has been charged inside and hardened, after it has been laid.

Note that it is appropriate to configure a male connection part and a female connection part on the four sides of the frame. Needless to say, these are constructed so that they can be respectively connected to the connecting female part and the connecting male part of the adjacent frame bodies.

When adopting an example in which the outer wall is composed of the base wall section, auxiliary wall section, and folded wall section, a relatively simple structure is that each side has a symmetrical positional relationship, and one At the position of
A protrusion protrudes by the thickness of the folded wall in the gap from the outer surface of the counter wall to the thickness of the auxiliary wall, and the protrusion is located at the other position. It has a structure in which a fitting hole (connection female part) is drilled into which it can be fitted.

With such a configuration, adjacent frames can be connected to each other at any side thereof. In cases where the wooden bricks held in the frame are irregularly shaped, rectangular in plan, or unevenly placed, the pattern of the pavement or floor surface may vary depending on the direction in which the frame is placed. This is particularly meaningful in cases where the two terms are different.

Note that the frame is suitably molded from a plastic material having sufficient strength.

[Function] Since the present invention has the above-described configuration, as described below, it is possible to hold various wooden bricks regardless of the shape. Even irregularly shaped real bricks, such as plain real bricks, can be held without any problem. Therefore, by holding a variety of real bricks, including irregularly shaped real bricks, and filling the surrounding area with decorative material as described later, attractive composite wood bricks each with a different taste are constructed. can do.

Further, the laying of the brick can be carried out extremely easily in the same manner as the conventional brick laying frame proposed by the present inventor.

The process from holding the wooden bricks to laying them on the base will be briefly described below.

Wooden bricks of a desired shape are placed in the frame. If a pair of positioning members are configured only at one corner of the frame, -
The wooden bricks are placed with their peripheral sides in contact with each other and positioned. When positioning materials are provided at multiple corners, it becomes possible to position multiple wooden bricks. If necessary, this positioning state is maintained by temporarily fixing it with an adhesive or the like. Alternatively, prepare a Yatoi and use this to temporarily hold it. The bricks are then fixed using the fixing means provided on the bottom plate. When screw holes and screws are used as the fixing means, the screws are screwed into the brick from the back side of the frame through the screw holes and fixed.

Next, the area around the wooden bricks inside the frame is filled with decorative material.

It is preferable that the decorative material is filled up to the vicinity of the upper end of the outer wall so that the upper surface is flat.The material is a mixture of particles such as small gravel and an adhesive. As the adhesive, a mixture of cement and various bonds can be used. It is preferable to configure it to have water permeability.

In this way, the laying frame holds the real bricks, and the surrounding area is filled with decorative material to form a composite real brick. After this, the work of laying the above-mentioned laying frame in the required laying area is carried out.

For example, installation work on sidewalks and other areas where installation is required is carried out as follows.

First, prepare a suitable base such as a gravel base or concrete base.

The above-mentioned gravel base is made by digging down the required area, adding gravel, and thoroughly compacting it to make it smooth.

In the case of a concrete base, it is sufficient to dig down the required area in the same way, then pour concrete using general construction methods and finish the top surface smooth.

Laying frames made of wooden bricks and decorative materials are placed vertically and horizontally on the gravel or concrete base as described above. In this laying frame, the regular bricks are usually slightly biased or irregularly shaped regular bricks are held, so by changing the orientation of the regular bricks, various regular brick patterns can be constructed.

In addition, when a connecting male part and a connecting female part are formed on the four sides of the frame, they are arranged so as to connect adjacent parts to each other as described below.

First, a number of laying frames corresponding to the number of laying frames lined up at the ends of the existing laying frame group in the connection direction are lined up and connected.

Naturally, this connection is made by connecting the connecting male part and connecting female part of one of the frame bodies of the adjacent laying frames to the connecting female part and connecting male part of the other, and then connecting these laying frames in the - row. Similar to the above, the connecting male part and the female connecting part are connected to one row of laying frames at the ends of the existing laying frame group by connecting them to each other.

By performing this kind of work over the necessary areas,
The installation is complete.

Therefore, even an amateur can perform smooth paving using real bricks very easily and efficiently by connecting paving frames with real bricks and decorative materials.

[Example] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

In particular, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the frame l is configured to have a square shape when viewed from above.

A planar bottom plate part 2 is formed inside the frame 1, and outer walls 3 are formed to rise and fall from the bottom plate part 2 at the edges of the four sides.

The outer wall 3 has a base wall portion 3a rising from the edge of the bottom plate portion 2.
, a folded wall portion 3b that is folded downward from its upper end, and an auxiliary wall portion 3c that hangs down from the edge of the bottom plate portion 2. The folded wall portion 3b is folded back with a slight gap left from the upper end of the base wall portion 3a so as to have an inverted U-shape in cross section. The lower end of the folded wall portion 3b is approximately at the same height as the upper surface of the bottom plate portion 2.

The bottom plate portion 2 has a large number of screw holes 4 passing through the front and back surfaces.
4... are bored, and a lattice-like leg portion 5 is formed on the back surface thereof. The lower end of the leg portion 5 is aligned with the auxiliary wall portion 3c.

Further, at the four corners of the frame 1, a pair of positioning plates 6.6 are formed, each extending inward from the base wall portion 3a of the outer wall 3 on both sides of each corner in a direction perpendicular thereto. Needless to say, the positioning plates 6, 6, . . . stand up from the bottom plate portion 2, and are configured such that their upper ends are inclined downwardly inward from the middle. These positioning plates 6.6...
is also in charge of the role of the stay for outer wall 3.

By the way, in particular, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the outer wall 3 of the frame 1 has connection protrusions (corresponding to the male connection parts) 7 on each of the four sides of the frame 1. and a connecting hole portion (corresponding to the female connecting portion) 8. The connecting protrusion 7 and the connecting hole 8 are arranged at symmetrical positions on each side, and have dimensions and shapes that allow them to fit into each other. More specifically, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4 to 6, the connecting protrusion 7 extends outward from the top of the auxiliary wall portion 3c with approximately the same thickness as the bottom plate portion 2. The length of extension (protrusion width) is such that the portion protruding from the outer surface of the folded wall 3b is equal to the thickness of the auxiliary wall 3C plus the gap to the folded wall 3b + the thickness of the folded wall 3b. do. Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the length of the connecting protrusions 7, 7, etc. in the direction along the outer wall 3 is equal to the width of the two lattices of the lattice-shaped legs 5. Almost match.

On the other hand, the connection hole portion 8 is connected to the connection protrusion 7 as described above.
This is a hole with a size and shape corresponding to that of the hole. As shown in FIGS. 2, 5, and 6, the connection hole 8 is formed in the upper part of the auxiliary wall 3c.

All of the above-mentioned components are integrally molded from a plastic that is mainly made of polypropylene and mixed with weather-resistant agents and the like.

Since this embodiment is constructed as described above, it can be usefully used as follows.

First, a case will be explained taking as an example a case in which slightly irregularly shaped wooden bricks 9 are held, which are made by cutting round logs from which the outer skin has been peeled off.

Note that the wooden bricks 9 are subjected to antiseptic treatment in advance.

Then, the actual brick 9 is placed on the bottom plate 2 of the frame 1, and as shown in FIG. Positioning is performed by bringing the parts into contact with each other. As described above, this positioning state is temporarily held by temporarily fixing with adhesive or by preparing a Yatoi.

After doing so, screws 10, 10, etc. are inserted from the back surface of the bottom plate part 2 through the screw holes 4, 4, and so on at the corresponding positions, and these screws are fixed to the lower surface of the main brick 9, respectively.

Therefore, even if the brick 9 has an irregular shape, it can be properly positioned.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a decorative material 11 is filled between the peripheral side of the main brick 9 and the base wall portion 3a of the outer wall 3, and is fixed to the bottom plate portion 2. The upper surface of the filled portion of the decorative material 11 is made to coincide with the upper end of the outer wall 3. In this example, the decorative material 11 is made of gravel and an adhesive mixed with cement. Some of the adhesive and gravel of the decorative material 11 enters the lower surface through the screw holes 4, 4, and solidifies, thereby strengthening the bonding of the decorative material 11 with the bottom plate portion 2.

FIGS. 3 and 4 show a laying frame in which the real bricks 7 and the decorative material 11 are arranged to form a composite wooden brick as described above.

The laying frame of this embodiment can hold the wooden bricks 9 as described above and arrange the decorative material 11, for example,
Can be used for brick paving of sidewalks etc.

The laying frame holding the wooden bricks mentioned above is laid on the sidewalk etc. by preparing a gravel base or concrete base.

Here, an example will be shown in which a gravel base 12 is prepared and laid on a sidewalk in a park.

This gravel base 12 is made by digging down the required area, pouring gravel into it, and thoroughly compacting it to make it smooth.

The wooden bricks 9 and the decorative material 1 are placed on the gravel base 12.
Arrange the laying frames with numbers 1 on them vertically and horizontally.

This work involves simply placing the above-mentioned laying frames on the gravel base 12 while connecting the adjacent frames 1 and 1 and changing the orientation of each to form a desired pattern. . For example, as shown in FIG. 5, adjacent laying frames can be moved by moving the frame 1 of one laying frame toward the frame 1 of the other laying frame as shown by the arrow The connection protrusion 7 and connection hole 8 of the auxiliary wall 3c are fitted into the connection hole 8 and connection protrusion 7 of another frame l, respectively, to connect them to each other. In this way, the frame body 1 of the adjacent laying frame
．． The construction work is completed by carrying out the installation work over a predetermined area while connecting each other. In this way, a smooth road surface is completed with the wooden bricks 9 and the surrounding decorative material 11. In addition, the connection protrusion 7 and the connection hole 8 are attached to the auxiliary wall portion 3C of the outer wall on each side.
Since it is configured as described above, the side edges of the frame 1 can also be connected to the side edges of other frame bodies 1, and as described above, the frame bodies 1 can be freely turned and connected to each other. This means that it can be connected.

In this laying frame, any wooden bricks of any shape can be inserted into the frame l, and any wooden bricks can be used as long as the height is not much higher than the toe of the outer wall 3. But you can hold it freely. The positioning of any wooden bricks, regardless of their shape and size, can be carried out by means of each pair of positioning plates 6.6.

Therefore, in this laying frame, an attractive design can be constructed by the wooden bricks 9 and the decorative material 11 around them.

Figures 7 to 10 show various types of real bricks arranged in a frame l.

FIG. 7 shows an example in which two wooden bricks 9a, 9a which are rectangular when viewed from above are arranged in the frame 1. Positioning is performed by bringing the corners into contact with the ends of each pair of positioning plates 6.6 at each of the three corners.

FIG. 8 shows an example in which four square bricks 9b, 9b, . . . are arranged in the frame 1 in a plan view. One corner is brought into contact with the end of each pair of positioning plates 6.6 at each corner for positioning.

FIG. 9 shows an example in which two square bricks 9c and 9c are diagonally arranged in the frame 1 when viewed from above. One corner is brought into contact with the end of each pair of positioning plates 6.6 at each corner for positioning.

FIG. 10 shows an example in which two wooden bricks 9d and 9d in the shape of round logs are arranged diagonally in the frame 1 when viewed from the top. The peripheral sides are brought into contact with the ends of each pair of positioning plates 6.6 at the corners for positioning.

In any case, the actual bricks 9a, 9a are fixed with the original bases 10, 10, etc., and the decorative material 11 is arranged around them.

It is possible to complete the holding state of 9b, 9b-..., 9c, 9c, 9d, 9d on the frame l.
