Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention relates to a leveler that is installed on the insulation material in advance when mortar or plaster is applied to the surface of the insulation material such as polystyrene foam or polyurethane foam, and can be used as a joint material. It also has the function of

In addition, plaster in this invention refers to gypsum plaster,
Used not only for lime plaster but also for wall coating materials in a broad sense.

Conventionally, when externally insulating walls or slabs of architectural structures, a heat insulating material is used and mortar or plaster is applied to the surface.

At that time, it was difficult to apply the coating to a predetermined thickness because the thickness of mortar and plaster was determined by the operator's intuition and experience.

The present invention is intended to improve the above points, and is a leveler whose main body is made of an elastic body and which has locking legs that can be inserted into a heat insulating material made of composite or resin foam.

The drawings show an embodiment of the present invention, and in Fig. 1, the main body 2 of the leveler 1 is an elastic body made of soft synthetic material, resin, rubber, etc., and its height l is equal to the coating thickness during troweling. It is regulated according to the situation.

The main body 2 is provided with a locking leg 3, which is made of a rigid material such as hard resin or metal.

FIG. 2 shows a mode of use of the leveler 1, in which a heat insulating material layer 5 made of hard synthetic material or resin foam is adhered to the surface of a base material 4 of concrete or mortar.

Now, after inserting and fixing the locking leg 3 of the leveler 1 into this heat insulating layer 5, a coating layer 6 of mortar or plaster is applied with a trowel to a thickness corresponding to the height l of the leveler body 2. .

Note that the number of locking legs 2 is not particularly limited, and it is preferable to provide unevenness as shown in the drawings in order to securely lock the locking legs 2 to the heat insulating material 5.

In addition to the shape shown in the drawings, the locking leg 3 can have various shapes that can be inserted into the heat insulating material 5, such as a rod-like shape.

If adhesive is applied to the surface of these locking legs 3, the insulation material 5
can be firmly fixed.

Further, if the side surface 7 of the leveler main body 2 is made rough, it is effective to improve adhesion to the coating layer 6 of mortar or plaster.

As mentioned above, the leveler of this invention inserts and fixes the locking legs into the insulation layer and then trowels mortar and plaster up to the head of the leveler, so the operator does not have to rely on his or her experience or intuition. Can be easily applied to any thickness.

Furthermore, since the main body of the leveler is made of an elastic material, it can absorb the shrinkage force due to drying of mortar and plaster and prevent the occurrence of cracks in the coating film.

Therefore, there is no need to apply joints after the troweling work, which shortens the process, and there is an advantage that the leveler can be used effectively as a joint agent.
