    • BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a panel that may be fastened to a wall. The panel has a plurality of ridges thereon and the process of fastening the panel to the wall replaces applying a scratch coat for masonry work. A mortar is provided and the mortar is selectively applied to the panel when the panel is fastened to the wall. Thus, a plurality of masonry units applied to the mortar for adhering the mortar units to the panel. Additionally, the mortar engages each of the ridges such that the mortar resists running downwardly on the panel thereby enhancing the appearance and the quality of the masonry work.
  • There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the disclosure in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the disclosure that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
  • The objects of the disclosure, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the disclosure, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure.
    • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE DRAWING(S)
  • The disclosure will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:
  • FIG. 1 is a top perspective view of a panel of a masonry panel assembly according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
  • FIG. 2 is a bottom view of a panel of an embodiment of the disclosure.
  • FIG. 3 is a right side view of a panel an embodiment of the disclosure.
  • FIG. 4 is a top view of a panel of an embodiment of the disclosure.
  • FIG. 5 is a front perspective in-use view of an embodiment of the disclosure.
  • FIG. 6 is a cross sectional view taken along line 6-6 of FIG. 5 of an embodiment of the disclosure.
    •  DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 6 thereof, a new masonry device embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.
  • As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 6, the masonry panel assembly 10 generally comprises a panel 12 that may be fastened to a wall 14. The panel 12 has a plurality of ridges 16 thereon and the panel 12 has a first surface 18, a second surface 20 and a peripheral edge 22 extending therebetween. The peripheral edge 22 has a first lateral side 24, a second lateral side 26, a top side 28 and a bottom side 30. The first surface 18 is fastened to the wall 14 and each of the ridges 16 extends outwardly from the second surface 20.
  • Each of the ridges 16 extends between the first lateral side 24 and the second lateral side 26. Moreover, the ridges 16 are spaced apart from each other and are distributed between the top side 28 and the bottom side 30. Each of the ridges 16 are oriented parallel with each other, with the top side 28 and with the bottom side 30. Additionally, the panel 12 is oriented such that each of the ridges 16 is horizontally oriented on the wall 14. The panel 12 is fastened to the wall 14 to prepare the wall 14 for masonry work and the ridges 16 on the panel 12 serve the same purpose as applying a traditional scratch coat to the wall 14. A plurality of panels 12 may each be attached to the wall 14 in sufficient numbers to cover the wall 14.
  • A mortar 32 is provided and the mortar 32 is selectively applied to the panel 12 when the panel 12 is fastened to the wall 14. A plurality of masonry units 34, such as stone veneer, brick, tile and other heavy masonry units 34, is adhered to the mortar 32 when the mortar 32 is applied to the panel 12. The mortar 32 engages each of the ridges 16 such that the mortar 32 resists running downwardly on the panel 12. Moreover, the mortar 32 may be a fluid masonry mortar 32 of any conventional design.
  • In use, the panel 12 is attached to the wall 14, through any conventional means such as nails or the like, to prepare the wall 14 for masonry work. The panel 12 is employed in place of a traditional scratch coat. The traditional process of applying a scratch coat to the wall 14 to prepare the wall 14 for masonry work involves 24 hours of cure time before mortar 32 can be applied to the scratch coat. Thus, the panel 12 reduces the amount of time required to complete the masonry work.
  • The panel 12 is positioned on the wall 14 such that the ridges 16 are horizontally oriented and level. In this way the ridges 16 act as a leveling guide when applying the masonry units 34. The mortar 32 is applied to the panel 12 and the ridges 16 facilitate the mortar 32 to thoroughly adhere to the panel 12. Thus, the masonry units 34 are inhibited from sliding downwardly on the panel 12 when the masonry units 34 are positioned on the mortar 32.
  • With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.
  • Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
