Int. Cl. E04b 1/56 US. Cl. 52282 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to the construction of wooden rooms, buildings or other structures, and in particular to such structures that are built within a confined space such as sauna rooms and the like, where the Wooden stock is of horizontally arranged log-type construction.
In this type of construction it has been conventional to provide corners of a complex system of interlocking notches to provide a typical overlapping log-cabin construction. This design is wasteful of material and of space, especially where the building or structure is erected within a basement for example. In addition it is complicated to form in the manufacturing process and difiicult to seal against moisture penetration.
It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a structure formed of horizontally arranged planks or logs having improved corner construction of simple design which is economical in material and provides an effective seal.
More particularly it is an object of the invention to pro vide a structure having the foregoing advantages which may be erected in a confined space and in some cases in contact with an adjacent wall or walls as in a domestic basement.
It is a further objective to provide hardware and fittings for use in such construction.
A preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described b way of example only with reference to the following drawings in which like reference devices refer to like parts thereof throughout the various views and diagrams and in which:
FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a wall structure according to the invention suitable for a domestic sauna room, shown with the ceiling portion removed;
FIG. 2 is an enlarged elevational view of a portion of the structure of FIG. 1 sectional along the line 22;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged plan cross-section view of a corner section of a structure of FIG, 1;
FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of a corner of the structure of FIG. 1, near the bottom of the structure;
FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view of a corner of the structure of FIG. 1, near the top of the structure;
FIG. 6 is a sectional side elevational view corresponding to FIG. 2 showing an alternative embodiment;
United States Patent 0 3,521,417. Patented July 21, 1970 ice FIG. 7 is a side elevational view of the alternative embodiment shown in FIG. 6, and,
FIG. 8 is a lower perspective illustration showing a further embodiment of the seating means incorporated in the invention.
The structure according to the invention is shown in this embodiment to incorporate interlocking tongued and grooved planks 10 of a unique moisture resistant design which is the subject of my co-pending application Ser. No. 583,303 entitled Tongue and Groove Plank, flled Sept. 30, 1966 now U.S. Pat. No. 3,440,784. However, it will be appreciated that the invention is equally applicable to other types of plank which are adapted to be erected in a horizontal log-cabin type of construction and in fact many such other types of plank are available for the purpose if desired. Planks 10 are joined at the corners 11 by forming a smooth 45 degree end surface 12 on each plank 10 in order that they may butt together and each such end surface 12 is provided with a continuous semi-cylindrical channel 13, which registers with one another to form a continuous cylindrical opening for reception of sealing compound.
At the upper end of channel member 15 the construction of FIG. 5 is provided to permit insertion of the last plank 10 from the exterior, and to provide means for forcibly compressing planks 10 together to provide a good moisture tight seal. One side 15a of member 15 is cut away as at 18 to a depth equal to the width of one plank 10 at least, and threaded holes 19 are formed in sides 15a as shown. Channel top member 20 is provided for attachment to channel member 15 and comprises a short side 21a and a long side 22 provided with holes 23 for reception of bolts 24 registering with holes 19 in channel member 15. Top member 20 is also provided with a top plate 25 having a threaded hole 26 therein for reception of bolt 27. A pressure plate 28 of L-shaped construction is provided for location beneath top plate 25 and may pref erably be indented as at 29 for registration of bolt 27 thereon.
Where the structure is to be used as a sauna room, as in this embodiment, the floor may be completed by a layer of plastic 30 (see FIG. 2) which is preferably preformed and shaped and provided with an edge portion 31 adapted to be nippedbetween planks 10 in the lowest course. Sand 32 or other fill may be used as a support beneath plastic 30 and a drain 33 connected for escape of condensed steam.
One or more benches 34 mav be provided and are preferably supported as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, by means of four wooden dowels 35 loosely fitting in cylindrical recesses 36 formed in planks 10. Bench crossmembers 37 are provided with holes 38 for reception of the exposed ends of dowels 35 and end caps 39 may then be screwed in position to hold the. same secure.
In operation the structure is erected by simply placing each plank with its two grooves 14 receiving tongues 16 within channel members 15, and lowering or driving it down into engagement with the plank beneath at which point it is locked in position due to butting engagement of end surfaces 12. The last plank may be inserted from the exterior through the spaces provided by cut away portions 18, and top member 20 is then bolted in position. Bolt 27 is then tightened to drive pressure plate 28 down and compress planks 10. Channel 13 may be filled with a liquid, sett able compound at any time.
Various modifications can be made for economy. Thus floor 30 can be replaced by poured concrete and a cove base trim strip (not shown) of stainless steel or plastic. Alternatively the whole floor can be tiled. In addition, it is possible to dispense with bottom plate 17 and merely bolt the two lowermost planks 10 to the channel member 15. The sealing groove 13 can be replaced by single saw outs into which a piece of plastic strip (not shown) is forced to provide a seal.
According to a further embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7 a somewhat less costly means may be provided for arranging a completely sealed self draining floor. In this embodiment, the lower most plank member '10 is raised upwardly and rests upon a raised portion of concrete 40 which is forced upwardly into the grooves running along the underside of the plank 10. The operation is very simply achieved by merely attaching an outer form or plank member 41 to the outer edge of plank 10, plank 10 being raised upwardly by means of chocks 42 which are spaced apart from one another and merely served to hold the lower most plank 10 off the basement floor itself. The concrete while still in a semi liquid or plastic state may then be forced against form member 41 and pressed upwardly into the grooves on the underside of plank 10, the inner surface being molded and shaped as shown so as to provide good drainage to the centre of the structure as at 33. In this way, it is possible to avoid the need for a sealed plastic floor 30 and a considerable saving in cost is achieved.
According to the embodiment of FIG. 8, the supporting arrangement for the bench or seat 34 may be somewhat modified. In this embodiment, an aluminium molding or die casting 43 of generally L-shaped section is formed and attached in place of the wooden cross member 37 of FIG. 2. Molding 43 is provided with one hole 38- adjacent the rear edge of the seat or bench 34 corresponding to the hole 38 in member 37, and is provided with one i or more notches indicated at 38A. In this way, the bench may be arranged to be swung upwardly about dowel and when swung downwardly will rest upon other dowels 35 arranged to register and fit within the notch or notches 38A.
The foregoing is a description of a preferred embodiment of the invention which is given here by way of example only and the invention is not to be taken as limited to any of the specific features described but comprehends all such variations thereof as come within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
