Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve workability of a tiled face by forming marks due to cutout or marking on the upper circumferential edge or the end face of a tile, and executing referring to the so that breaking joints are arranged in vertical lines. CONSTITUTION:A tile 13 or 14 constituted of a main part 2 which is formed into a slender shape, provided with a recessed part 1 on the back and a flat face on the surface, and a joint constituting part 3 on the upper part is formed. Marks 4, 5, 5 are provided on the Joint constituting parts 3 or the upper end faces 6 of the tiles 13, 14 by cutout, marking with ink, or the like. Metal fittings 12, 12 for engagement are fitted onto the surface of a backing material 11 fixed to pillars 10, and the tiles 13, 14 are executed by engaging the recessed parts 1 of the back of the tiles 13, 14 with the engaging metal fittings 12. During execution thereof, vertical joints are conformed to each other referring to the marks 4, 5 provided on the tiles 13, 14, so that breaking joints are arranged in vertical lines.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tile, and more particularly, to a tile which is easy to apply to a joint having a rough surface.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a method for forming a vertical surface such as a wall surface of a building on a tile surface, a dry tile construction method is adopted. In this dry tile construction method, a plurality of engaging portions such as upper surface metal fittings of a sizing material are formed, and the engaging portions engage the tile from below.

When a loose joint is formed by this construction method, the tiles are regulated by the engaging portions, so that the intervals of the horizontal joints are always constant and the direction thereof is always horizontal. On the other hand, since the joints in the vertical direction, that is, the vertical joints do not regulate the tiles, their intervals are not constant. In order to avoid this, a method has been adopted in which a reference black ink in the vertical direction is first put on the base material, and the tiles are engaged by visual measurement so that the vertical joints are constant with reference to the black ink. However,
Such a construction method has a slow construction speed and requires skill for construction.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art and to provide a tile that can be applied to a joint with a high degree of speed and without requiring skill.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a tile in which a vertical base material surface is provided with a plurality of engaging portions in the horizontal direction, and a vertical surface is formed by engaging with the engaging portions. There is provided a tile having a mark formed on the peripheral edge or the end surface of the tile.

A description will be given below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tile according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is an explanatory view of a construction example of an outer wall surface using the tile of FIG. As shown in the figure, the tile according to the present invention has an elongated shape, and a recess 1 is formed on the back surface. This concave portion is for engaging with an engaging portion provided on the surface of the base material of the building. The surface is composed of a main body 2 having a planar shape and a joint forming portion 3 provided above.

A mark 4 is formed on the joint forming portion 3. The position of the mark 4 is preferably as high as possible above the joint structure portion 4 which is covered by the upper tile after construction and is not visible from the outside. Further, in the length direction, it is 1/2 of the tile length n, and in addition to that, as shown in the figure, n / 3
The mark 5 may be provided also at the position of, and the mark may be provided at the position of n / 4.

The mark may be formed on the upper end surface 6 instead of being formed on the joint forming portion 3. A notch, marking with ink, or the like is adopted as this mark. When constructing using such tiles, the base material 11 is first fixed to the pillar 10. Next, the fitting 12 is fixed in the horizontal direction on the surface of the base material. Instead of fixing the metal fitting 12 for engagement, a base material integrally formed with an engaging portion may be used.

Next, the tile 13 is engaged with the engaging metal fitting 12, and the right end of the tile 13 is aligned with the mark 4 of the tile 14 provided in the lower row. As a result, the vertical joint of the row of tiles 13 is on the extension line of the vertical joint of the row of tiles two rows below, and the blur joint is vertical. A tile surface is formed by sequentially repeating this.

[00010]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, the workability of the tile surface having uneven joints is significantly improved. It also serves as a mark when cutting into tiles of short length such as edges at the construction site.
