Definitions
- This invention relates to constructional elements of metal for enclosing rooms, 'ships cabins and the like, which are formed from two or more metal plates held at distances apart and com- 5- pletely insulated from one another. Constructional elements are already known in which the metal plates are insulated from one another by solid insulating plates which are interposed. Suchinsulating plates are mostly made of cork,
- the webs act as carriers of sound so that the insulating material enclosed in the hollow spaces becomes inefiective.
- the simultaneous connection of the webs with the metal plates 30 leads to great diftlculties, as, in order to avoid external projections, they can only be connected by spot welding. This may be effected by inserting a conducting core between the limbs of the web. Such manipulation, however, is very as complicated and expensive. In order to obtain insulation of the outer metal plates of the element, insulat-ng layers have been inserted between the lim oi the connecting webs and the metal plates.
- corrugated card made from asbestosor the like.
- this has a. high strength and is suitable for sufliciently protecting the metal plates against
- the constructional elements are sufllciently strong, even when the walls are thin, and the stability can be increased by providing a suitable number of connecting rails.
- the corrugated insulating card has the advantage over the solid insulating layers of being considerably less in weight.
- Theassembly is effected according to the course of the corrugations in such a manner that separate plates or strips are formed which are covered by plane card layers.
- the sound and heat insulation can be increased to a great extent by providing a suitable number of card layers, that is by dividing the corrugated material into layers.
- ,Flg. 1 is an elevation and Fig. 2 a cross-section of a constructional element.
- Fig. 3 is a cross-section of a part of an element on a larger scale.
- Figs. 4, 5 and 6 are cross-sectional views of modified constructions.
- Figure 2 shows a cross-section through a constructional element consisting of two metal plates a and b. For connecting them together'the plates have" on the inside dove-tail shaped guides d in betweenwhich the connecting rails c of solid insulating material are slidably guided so as l to be easily removableif and when required.
- the guides d serve also as abutments for the insulating insertions p used for connecting the two elements together.
- the hollow space remaining between the metal plates a, b is filled with corrugated card made of asbestos or the sulating core 0 is partly enclosed by two metal strips g which slide on the plates 0., b and in the guides d.
- the sliding in and out of the rails c is greatly facilitated by the arrangement of the metal strips 9.
- connection of the two metal strips g can be secured by means of a screw and threaded sleeve k, the heads I of which fit in depressions m of the metal plates 0, b which are fitted in insulating sleeves i.
- the screw heads are insulated from'the metal plates a, b by means of small insulating plates n applied so as to adhere, which may be arranged to spring back with respect to the outer edges of the rail, so as not to form an obstruction to the greater certainty.
- the guiding strips g in this.
- Figure 5 illustrates a constructional form of the connection of the metal plates a, b, in which the metal strips g are simply bent back at right angles and engage in step-like guides f secured to the metal plates.
- the distancing bars are so constructed that a space is left between the holders and the metal plates. When they are slid in, the abutting ecges of the holders slide on the metal plate guides, so that the frictional resistance is reduced to a minimum.
- This construction has a further advantage, in that the insulation of the outer metal plates with respect to one another is considerably improved, more particularly y the air cushion in the intermediate space 1.
- the metal plates a and b areprovided on the inner side with guides f. Between the plates is the compact filling of material It.
- the distancing bar consists oi" the compact insulating mass 0 which is enclosed on twosides by the independent holders 0?. The latter are” connected together by the screws 1.
- The'insulation of the screws 1' with respect to the holders 0' is eflected by means of insulating discs L- 'Ihe holders W have at the ends bent-overpartsr so that they only bear against the guides I with" the thickness of the material. Air. spaces'q are left between the metal plates a and b and the distancing bars a, c.
- FIGs 4 and 5 show the arrangement of the corrugations along the connecting rails, the layers running transverse to the metal plates a, b, in Figure 4, and parallel thereto in Fig: 5.
- the layers of corrugated material are held together in separate plates or strips by means of the outer plane covers o.
- For increasing the sound and heat insulation it is possible to insert several plane insulating layers 0 as shown in Fig. 2.
- the eii'ectiveness of such insulation against heat has been tested experimentally in the construction of the element according to the invention. Thus, for example, when the metal plate a was exposed to a temperature of about 500 0.. even after a long time a temperature of only 32 C. was measured at the plate b.
- a sound and heat insulating constructional element consisting of a plurality of spaced metal plates, rails for connecting and spacing the metal plates, each consisting of corrugated asbestos material and two sheet metal strips partly enclosing the corrugated asbestos material, and guides, shaped to flt the sheet metal strips, be-
- a sound andheat insulating constructional element consisting of a plurality of spaced metal plates, rails for connecting and spacing the meg] plates, each consisting of compact insulating material and two sheet metal strips partly enclosing the insulating material, a screw and a threaded sleeve for each rail for securing the metal strips together, the metal strips having depressions for receiving the heads of the screw and sleeve, and insulating linings for the depressions and insulating plates for covering the heads of the screw and sleeve, and guides, shaped to fit the sheet metal strips, between which the rails can slide, arranged on the inner sides 0! the metal plates.
