Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to the structure of the connecting portion of the corner portion of a wall panel, and more specifically, to a technique that improves assembly accuracy, ensures waterproofing, and improves workability.

Conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the structure of the connecting portion at the corner of a wall panel is such that a cylindrical joiner 6 with an open top and a generally triangular cross section is connected to a side of the wall panel 1 having a generally L-shaped cross section. The end portions 7 were locked, held down from the inside by a presser body 8 having a substantially U-shaped cross section, and inserted between the joiner 6 and the presser body 8 to connect the side end portions 7 of the wall panel 1. A gasket 9 is fitted into the presser body 8. However, the upper surfaces of the wall panels 1 are not connected and are free, and as shown in Figure 2, the upper end of the joiner 6 remains open and hollow, with nothing in it, and there is no ceiling joint. There was a problem in that there was no support for the sealing 10 in this part, and the sealing 10 leaked out, making it impossible to sufficiently apply the sealant and ensuring waterproof performance.

The present invention was made in view of the drawbacks of the conventional examples mentioned above, and its purpose is to connect the upper surfaces of wall panels at the corner parts,
To provide a structure of a connection part of a corner part of a wall panel, which can improve the assembly accuracy of the wall panel at the corner part, and also ensure the sealing of a ceiling joint at the corner part of the wall panel.

The gist of the present invention is that a pair of wall panels 1 are erected at right angles with their side edges close to each other, and a rising piece 2 for connection with a ceiling panel 5 extends upward from the rear edge of the upper surface of each wall panel 1. is extended to form a ceiling joint part 3 at the upper end of the wall panel 1, and both ends of a corner fitting 4 having an L-shaped cross section and bent in an L shape are connected to the ceiling joint part 3.
The structure of the connecting part of the corner part of the wall panel is constructed by spanning the upper surfaces of both wall panels 1 along the wall panel 1 and fixing both ends of the corner fittings 4 to the upper ends of the wall panel 1, respectively. The embodiment will be explained in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Reference numeral 1 designates wall panels for use in bathrooms, for example. The wall panels 1 are erected at right angles to each other, and their side ends 7 are connected by a joiner 6 and a presser body 8 in the same way as in the conventional example, and wall joints are formed in the presser body 8. A gasket 9 for use is fitted. Further, the wall panel 1 has a rising piece 2 extending upward from the rear edge of the upper surface to form a ceiling joint part 3, and a hanging piece 11 at the edge of the ceiling panel 5 is overlapped with the rising piece 2 and fixed with screws. The lever part can be used as a ceiling joint. Figure 6 a, b
1 is a corner fitting 4, which is formed into an L-shaped cross section by a vertical piece 12 and a horizontal piece 13, and the whole is gently bent into an L-shape. A hole 16 is formed in the vertical piece 12 to match the hole for connecting the rising piece 2 to the ceiling panel 5. Then, both ends of the horizontal piece 13 of the corner fitting 4 are stacked on the top surface of the wall panel 1, both ends of the vertical piece 12 of the corner fitting 4 are stacked on the rising piece 2 of the wall panel 1, and fixed together with the hanging piece 11 with screws 14.
The upper surfaces of the wall panels 1 are connected to each other by corner fittings 4. After doing this, a sealant 10 is applied inside the ceiling joint part 3, and a gasket 15 is fitted. At this time, since the sealant 10 is fixed at the corner part by the corner metal fitting 4, it can be applied sufficiently without leaking to the outside.

As mentioned above, the present invention connects the upper surfaces of the wall panels at the corners with corner metal fittings, so
This has the advantage of increasing the accuracy of assembling wall panels at corners, allowing the gaps (wall joints) between wall panels to be assembled to a constant width, and also forming ceiling joints at corners using this corner fitting. It becomes a sealing receptacle,
It has the advantage of being able to apply a sufficient amount of sealant and ensuring waterproof performance.
