Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a translucent building material for transmitting sunlight and guiding the light to the indoor side, and more specifically, to diffuse light by transmitting sunlight. The present invention relates to a translucent building material that is made to have a soft light so that a person indoors can feel relaxed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The above-mentioned translucent building material is used for covering a window opening formed on an outer wall of a building to form a window plate, or for forming a wall. There has been proposed a plate, a transparent glass block in which an uneven pattern is formed on each surface on the outdoor and indoor sides, and which can be stacked vertically.

[0003]

By the way, in order to more surely provide a relaxing feeling by the light transmitted through the building material, the light is sufficiently dispersed when the light is transmitted through the building material. It is conceivable to make this softer and to give each part of the light a natural color to create a more fantastic space indoors.

[0004] Therefore, it is conceivable to form the building material from a stone-like translucent plate having a natural color such as marble.

[0005] However, when the above-mentioned building material is formed from the above-mentioned marble, for example, marble generally deteriorates significantly due to rainwater or the like, and thus there is a problem that sufficient weather resistance cannot be obtained with this building material.

[0006] Further, if the thickness of the marble is reduced in order to obtain a desired translucency, the marble is generally fragile and lacks toughness. There is a possibility that strength problems such as cracks may occur.

Further, in order to diversify the application of the above-mentioned building materials, it is conceivable to make building materials formed of marble into blocks so that they can be stacked.

However, in order to obtain a stable state when the blocks are stacked as described above, it is necessary to increase the horizontal thickness of each block to some extent. Then, there is a problem that the translucency of the building material is hindered.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances. When sunlight passes through a translucent building material, the light after passing through the building material is softened, and the light is used to improve the indoor environment. The task is to create a fantastic space so that a more relaxed feeling can be obtained.

In addition, even in the case described above, it is necessary to ensure that the weather resistance of the building material is sufficiently ensured and that there is no problem in strength such as cracking due to an external force such as an outdoor wind pressure. Make it an issue.

It is another object of the present invention to ensure that the building material has a desired translucency even when the building material is made into blocks and can be stacked and the thickness is increased to some extent.

[0012]

The translucent building material of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is as follows.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a transparent plate 4 provided so as to partition an outdoor 2 and an indoor 3 and a stone-like translucent plate 6 adhered to the inner surface of the transparent plate 4 on the indoor 3 side. It is provided.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the first aspect, the translucent plate 6 is constituted by a plurality of small area plates 19 arranged in parallel along the inner surface of the transparent plate 4 and adjacent to each other. A gap 20 is provided between the small area plates 19 so as to separate the two small area plates 19 from each other.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in addition to the second aspect of the present invention, an elastic joint 21 is fitted into the gap 20.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in addition to any one of the first to third aspects, the block 30 is formed by the transparent plate 4 and the translucent plate 6 adhered to the transparent plate 4. The plurality of blocks 30 can be stacked up and down in a state where the blocks 30 are in a vertical position such that the transparent plate 4 and the translucent plate 6 extend in the vertical direction, respectively.

[0017]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

(First Embodiment)

FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment, which corresponds to the first to third aspects of the present invention.

In the drawing, reference numeral 1 denotes a translucent building material.

The building material 1 includes a flat transparent plate 4 provided to partition the outdoor 2 and the indoor 3, and a flat half-plate which is firmly adhered to the inner surface of the transparent plate 4 on the indoor 3 side by an adhesive 5. And a transparent plate 6.

The transparent plate 4 is made of a transparent (including translucent, the same applies hereinafter) glass plate or a resin plate, and has a thickness of about 10 to 20 mm and has sufficient strength and rigidity. ing. The adhesive 5 is also transparent and made of resin.

The translucent plate 6 is at least visually translucent in the form of a stone, and is formed of natural stone such as marble. The translucent plate 6 has a thickness of about 10 to 20 mm and has a certain strength and rigidity, but has a toughness which is inferior to that of the transparent plate 4.
The translucent plate 6 may be an artificial stone obtained by solidifying a lump or granules of natural stone or transparent resin with a transparent adhesive made of resin, or a resin plate.

The transparent plate 4 and the translucent plate 6 are brought into surface contact with each other, and these contact surfaces are firmly adhered to each other by the adhesive material 5 as a whole. The building material 1 composed of the transparent plate 4 and the translucent plate 6 has a rectangular shape as a whole and is translucent.

A plurality of the building materials 1 constitute a ceiling 10 of a building 9, and sunlight 11 from the outdoors 2 passes through the building materials 1 and reaches the indoor 3 side.

The building 9 has a plurality of columns 1 protruding from the floor.
3 and a plurality of beams 14 supported on the protruding ends of these columns 13.
And a sash 15 is formed by these beams 14. The sash 15 is made of aluminum or resin, and the building material 1 is attached to the sash 15 of the building 9 so as to close the space inside the frame of the sash 15. In addition, the gap between the outer edge of the building material 1 and the sash 15 is a seal material 16
It is closed with

Each of the building materials 1 may be a window plate that closes a window opening formed on a side wall of the building 9 or may constitute a wall of the building 9.

According to the above configuration, the sunlight 11 transmitted through the translucent plate 6 of the building material 1 is sufficiently diffused at the time of the transmission because the translucent plate 6 is in the form of a stone, and after the transmission, The light 17 is made softer, and the natural color of the stone material imparts a natural color to each part of the light 17, so that a fantastic space can be obtained in the indoor 3.

In the above case, since the translucent plate 6 is joined to the inner surface of the transparent plate 4 located on the outside 2 side, the translucent plate 6 is not exposed to rainwater or the like. It is prevented by the transparent plate 4.

Therefore, even if the translucent plate 6 is significantly deteriorated by rainwater, such as marble, the building material 1 has sufficient weather resistance.

Further, since the translucent plate 6 is adhered to the transparent plate 4, the translucent plate 6 is reinforced by the transparent plate 4.

Therefore, even if the translucent plate 6 has a low toughness such as marble and the thickness is reduced to obtain a desired translucency, the translucent plate 6 may be exposed to external force such as wind pressure of the outdoors 2. The occurrence of a problem in the strength that the translucent plate 6 is cracked is prevented.

The semi-transparent plate 6 is composed of a plurality of small-area plates 19 arranged along the inner surface of the transparent plate 4,
Each of these small area plates 19 is a rectangular plate having each side of about 300 to 500 mm. In addition, a gap 20 is provided between the two small area plates 19 so as to separate the adjacent small area plates 19 from each other.

For this reason, as shown by a chain line in FIG.
Even if the transparent plate 4 of the building material 1 bends due to an external force such as wind pressure, the amount of bending of each of the small area plates 19 that bends with this is suppressed to a small amount.

Further, as described above, when the transparent plate 4 is bent, the two small area plates 19, 19 adjacent to each other, though slightly, approach each other. , 19 are prevented from coming into contact with each other by the gap 20, that is, they are prevented from applying a load to each other.

An elastic rubber joint 21 is press-fitted into each of the gaps 20.

For this reason, the transparent plate 4 of the building material 1 is bent by an external force such as wind pressure or the like, and the adjacent small area plates 19, 19
When they try to approach each other, this approach
1, that is, the joint 21 achieves improvement in rigidity of the building material 1.

Moreover, since the joint 21 has elasticity, the external force is applied to the small area plate 19 through the joint 21.
When applied to the small area plate 19, the external force directed to the small area plate 19 is dispersed by the elastic deformation of the joint 21.
Is prevented from being concentrated on a part of the substrate.

Further, since the joint 21 has elasticity as described above, the transparent plate 4 of the building material 1 is bent by an impact force such as a wind pressure at the time of a gust, and the adjacent small area plates 19,
When the members 19 approach each other, the joints 21 sandwiched between the small area plates 19 are elastically contracted, so that the impact force is buffered.

The following figures show the second and third embodiments. Each of these embodiments has many points in common with the first embodiment in configuration and operation. Therefore, these common components are denoted by the same reference numerals in the drawings, and redundant description thereof will be omitted, and different points will be mainly described.

(Second Embodiment)

FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment, which corresponds to the first to third aspects of the present invention.

According to this, a through hole 25 is formed at a corner of the transparent plate 4, and the transparent plate 4 is detachably supported on the sash 15 by the fastener 26 inserted through the through hole 25. I have. The space between the adjacent building materials 1 and 1 is closed by a sealing material 27 such as a silicone resin.

(Third Embodiment)

FIG. 3 shows a third embodiment, which corresponds to the fourth aspect of the present invention.

According to this, the transparent plate 4 and the translucent plate 6 adhered to the inner surface of the transparent plate 4 form a block 30.
Are formed. As shown in the figure, in a state where the block 30 is in a vertical position so that the transparent plate 4 and the translucent plate 6 extend in the vertical direction, respectively, the blocks 30 can be stacked vertically. I have.

According to the illustrated example, joints 31 are interposed between the respective blocks 30 stacked as described above.
The joint 31 is a mortar or the like, and the blocks 30 are firmly connected to each other by the joint 31.
These blocks 30 are stacked so as to close a window opening 32 formed in a wall, and are used as a window plate. The wall may be formed by the block 30.

In the above case, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the blocks 30 in the horizontal direction to some extent in order to provide a stable state when the blocks 30 are stacked. Therefore, the transparent plate 4 that can ensure sufficient translucency is made thicker, and the translucent plate 6 is made thinner accordingly, whereby the desired translucency of the building material 1 is ensured. I have.

The translucent plate 6 may be constituted by a plurality of small area plates 19 as shown in the first and second embodiments.

[0050]

The effects of the present invention are as follows.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a transparent plate provided for partitioning between the outdoor and the indoor, and a stone-like translucent plate adhered to the inner surface of the transparent plate on the indoor side.

For this reason, sunlight transmitted through the translucent plate of the building material is sufficiently diffused at the time of transmission because the translucent plate is stone-like, and the light transmitted therethrough is softened. At the same time, the natural hue of the stone material gives a natural color to each part of the light, and a fantastic space is obtained indoors.

Therefore, according to the above-described building material, a more relaxed feeling can be obtained.

In the above case, since the translucent plate is bonded to the inner surface of the transparent plate located on the outdoor side, the exposure of the translucent plate to rainwater or the like is not possible. Is prevented by

Therefore, even if the translucent plate is a marble or the like which is significantly deteriorated by rainwater or the like, the building material has sufficient weather resistance.

Moreover, since the translucent plate is adhered to the transparent plate, the translucent plate reinforces the translucent plate.

Therefore, the above-mentioned translucent plate is of low toughness such as marble, and even if its thickness is reduced in order to obtain desired translucency, the above-mentioned translucent plate is not affected by external force such as wind pressure outdoors. The occurrence of the problem of strength such as cracking of the transparent plate is prevented.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the translucent plate is composed of a plurality of small area plates arranged in parallel along the inner surface of the transparent plate, and the two small area plates are separated from each other so that adjacent small area plates are separated from each other. A gap is provided between the area plates.

For this reason, even if the transparent plate of the building material is bent by an external force such as wind pressure, the amount of bending of each of the small area plates which bends accordingly is suppressed, and the small area plates are cracked. Is prevented from occurring.

Further, as described above, when the transparent plate bends, the two adjacent small area plates may approach each other, albeit slightly. The contact is prevented by the gap, that is, the load is prevented from being applied to each other.

Therefore, as described above, even when an external force is applied to the building material, the occurrence of a problem of strength such as cracking of the small-area plate is more reliably prevented.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, an elastic joint is fitted into the gap.

For this reason, when the transparent plate of the building material is bent by an external force such as wind pressure and the two small-area plates adjacent to each other try to approach each other, this approach is suppressed by the joints. Improvement in rigidity of the building material is achieved.

Further, since the joint has elasticity, when the external force is applied to each of the small area plates through the joint, the external force directed to each of the small area plates is dispersed by the elastic deformation of the joint.

Therefore, stress concentration is prevented from being generated in a part of each small area plate, and cracks are prevented from being generated in the small area plate.

Further, since the joints have elasticity as described above, the transparent plate of the building material is bent by an impact force such as a wind pressure at the time of a gust, and the adjacent small area plates approach each other. At times, the joints sandwiched between these small area plates are elastically contracted, so that the impact force is buffered.

Therefore, as described above, even if an impact force is applied to the building material and the impact force is directed to each of the small area plates through joints, the impact force is buffered as described above, so that the small area is reduced. The occurrence of cracks in the plate is prevented.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a block is formed by the transparent plate and a translucent plate adhered to the transparent plate, and the block is formed such that the transparent plate and the translucent plate extend in the vertical direction, respectively. The plurality of blocks can be stacked up and down in a vertically oriented state.

For this reason, the flexibility of application of building materials is improved, for example, the blocks can be stacked at the window opening to form a window plate or a wall.

In the above case, when the blocks are stacked, it is necessary to increase the horizontal thickness of the blocks to some extent in order to give a stable state to the blocks.

Therefore, in the above-mentioned block, the above-mentioned transparent plate which can secure sufficient translucency may be made thicker, and the above-mentioned translucent plate may be made thinner accordingly. In this case, the building materials are stacked vertically. Even if the blocks are made possible, the above-mentioned building material can secure desired translucency.
