Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a panel aquarium provided with internal supports.

In recent years, panel water tanks have become widely used as elevated water tanks or water receiving tanks installed on the rooftops or basements of high-rise buildings, and their usage is rapidly increasing.

That is, the panel aquarium has the great advantage of being able to be constructed to any size by stitching together the necessary number of square unit panels previously produced in a factory, depending on its volume.

However, as panel aquariums become higher and larger, they are more susceptible to deformation due to water pressure in each part of the aquarium and to destruction by seismic force during an earthquake.For this reason, some kind of reinforcement is required, and conventionally, the structure of each part Various reinforcing drugs have been used.

Particularly in assembled aquariums with a large floor area, there are problems with the deflection of the ceiling wall due to its own weight and the strength of the ceiling wall against various loads.

Therefore, it is necessary to prevent the above-mentioned deflection or to reinforce the ceiling wall, and therefore a support is often provided between the ceiling wall and the bottom wall inside the tank.

In order to increase the reinforcing effect, it has been attempted to install four adjacent rectangular unit panels on the bottom wall and the ceiling wall between the corresponding parts of the joint intersection area where the flanges meet. ,
The conventional method still has the following drawbacks.

That is, most commonly, for example, Utility Model Application No. 5339813
As shown in the publication, cross-shaped intersecting grooves are provided at the upper ends of the pillars, and the above-mentioned joint intersection area is installed by fitting flanges, but in this case, once the ceiling wall is constructed, When installing on a ceiling wall, the support is longer than the maximum height from the bottom wall that reaches the flange by at least the depth of the cross groove, and especially when installed at the bottom of the cross groove, the support directly supports the edge of the flange. However, it is virtually impossible to install it because excessive force is applied to the ceiling wall when fitting it, and installation forces local spacing of the flange. Although it is necessary to incorporate the support post in the middle, there is an inconvenience in that the support post must be temporarily supported.

This invention advantageously overcomes the above-mentioned disadvantages and devises a structure for attaching columns that can be easily and arbitrarily installed at the required location after the construction of the ceiling wall. Advantageously, appropriate and effective reinforcement of a panel aquarium provided with supports is realized.

Herein, this invention has a number of rectangular unit panels each consisting of a face plate having flanges on all four sides. In panel aquariums, the flanges are connected to the side walls facing the outside and the ceiling wall is attached to the inside of the aquarium, respectively, with an upright column that is shorter than the minimum height from the bottom wall to the ceiling wall and at least at both ends. The installation of adjacent rectangular unit panels on the bottom wall and ceiling wall, respectively, is arranged vertically at mutually corresponding parts of the flange joint areas, and the lower ends of the columns are attached to a pair of side unit panels extending along the face plates of the adjacent side unit panels on the bottom wall. The upright struts are attached to the bottom wall by fitting with a lower stator having winglets and having protrusions that fit into the hollow ends of the upright struts, and the upper ends of the struts have water strips providing support to the flange joint area and are attached to the upright struts. This is a panel aquarium equipped with internal supports each fixed to the ceiling wall by means of a dowel between the upper stator and the upper stator, each having a protruding piece that fits into the hollow end of the panel.

This invention will be explained in detail below based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a part of the inside of a panel aquarium according to an example of this invention, and this aquarium consists of a bottom wall 1, side walls 2, and a ceiling wall 3.

Considering the efficiency of assembly work, the drainage performance of the bottom and ceiling walls of the aquarium, and the maintenance of the aquarium, the square unit panels that make up the bottom wall 1 and side walls 2 are sewn together with their mounting flanges facing the outside of the aquarium. The rectangular unit panels constituting the ceiling wall are attached by stitching the flanges 4 toward the inside of the tank.

For installation, the flange is representatively shown by attaching the number 4 to a rectangular unit panel of the ceiling wall 3.

In the illustrated example, the bottom wall 1 has a structure in which it is raised at the center part 5 of the face plate, which acts as a pressure receiving surface for each square unit panel, in order to improve drainage. A drainage valley is formed in the bottom wall 1, through which water in the tank can flow to a pit panel (not shown) provided at any position on the bottom wall 1.

It should be noted that the assembly structure of the bottom wall 1 is shown as an example, and it goes without saying that the assembly structure is not limited to this.

Although not shown in FIG. 1, the face plate of the rectangular unit panel of the side wall 2 may also have any membrane structure to resist water pressure.

Now, in order to normally bear the load on the ceiling wall 3, the upright support 7 for reinforcing the ceiling wall 3 is preferably installed in each of the four rectangular unit panels so that each flange part is completely However, in order to avoid the disadvantages of the prior art mentioned above, the upper fixing part 9 and the lower fixing part 10 shown in FIG. The upper stator 11 supporting the flange 4 of the square unit panel of the bottom wall 2 has a protrusion 12 on the upper stator 11, and the lower stator 13 fixed to the square unit panel of the bottom wall 2 has a protrusion 14. Projection piece 12
and must be hollow to receive insertion of projection 14.

The upper stator 11 and the lower stator 13 are each attached with an L-shaped water piece 15 that fixedly supports the flange 4 and a pair of wing pieces 16 that are fixed to the bottom wall 1, in addition to the above-mentioned projecting piece 12 and protrusion 14, respectively. has.

3 and 4 show the cross-sectional positions of FIG. 2 and the inner surfaces of the ceiling wall 3 and the bottom wall together with the cross-section of the upright support 7, and FIG. The figure shows each cross section in accordance with the cross section directions in FIG. 4.

Upper stator 11. The lower stator 13 can be simply manufactured by sheet metal processing, as shown in FIG.

Regarding the upper stator 11, in this example, the remaining parts of both sides of the slit cut into the material to separate the tongue-shaped protrusion 12 that fits into the upright support 7 made of pipe material are alternately inserted into the back of the sulin l-. A groove 18 reaching the same level as the bent surface is provided on the side facing the protruding piece 12, and the bottom surface of the groove 18 is formed into a joining intersection area where the four rectangular unit panels converge at one point together with the bent surface. For installation, a water piece 15 is provided on the flange to serve as a clamping support.

For the lower stator 13, a strip material is bent into an inverted V-shape, and a pair of wing pieces 16 extending to the left and right of the protrusion 14 that fit into the hollow hole of the column are attached to a rectangular unit panel of the bottom wall 1, preferably. It is bent and formed along the face plates of diagonally adjacent panels.

The strut 7 is made of Pol I (L) with the wing pieces 16 prepared thereon.
17, the lower hollow end is fitted to the protrusion 14 of the lower stator 13 which is bolted to the bottom wall panel 1 with the necessary seal. 12 is inserted into the upper hollow end, and the length of the water piece 15 is prepared so that it can easily pass through the lower edge of the flange 4 when installing the ceiling wall 3, and the groove of the water piece 15 is prepared in this way. The flange is held between the flange 18 and the bottom surface and the receiving surface of the bent piece are used to lift the water piece 15 from the upright support 7 so as to fit it with the lower stator 13 mentioned above at a position that supports the lower edge of the flange. At this position, the upright support 7 is fixed with the mekugi bolt 19 passing through it together with the protruding piece 12 of the water piece 15, making use of the tension of the support support 7. It is possible to fasten the projection 14, especially with the Mekugi poles 1 to 20 that pass through it together with the valley groove of the V-shaped bend.

8 and 9 show individual modified examples of the upper fixing piece 11, in which the general shape of the water piece 15 including the groove 18 is almost the same, and the protruding piece 12 is tongue-shaped. Instead of doing 1
As a cross feather or annular shape as shown in 2', 12",
It is fixed to the lower surface of the water piece 15 by welding or the like.

In FIGS. 7 to 9, 21 is a dowel hole, and 22 is a bolt hole for attaching the water piece 15 to the flange.

Further, FIG. 10 shows an example of application of the upright support 17 in the case where a reinforcing girder or beam is installed along the flange to install the ceiling wall 3, and a frame is provided between the side walls 2-2.
As shown in the figure, it is preferable that the water piece 15' is provided with a folded edge to support the girder or beam 23 from the lower surface, as well as a hole 24 for binding between it and the web of the girder or beam 23.

In the figure, 25 indicates a bolt for binding.

As described above, according to this invention, after the ceiling wall 3 is assembled, the upright support can be accurately installed at any appropriate position, so effective support reinforcement for the panel aquarium can be easily implemented. Even when the aquarium ceiling covers a large area, it does not sag, and when it is necessary to place a load on the aquarium ceiling, it can be quickly responded to, and it also prevents sloshing within the tank in the event of an earthquake. Also, the risk of the ceiling wall being lifted up or the support column falling over is advantageously avoided.
