ARCHITECTURALLY PREFABRICATED PANEL ASSEMBLY
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an architecturally prefabricated panel assembly, and more particularly, to an architecturally prefabricated panel assembly which enhances durability and incombustibility.
Background Art Prefabricated panels are used to finish inner and outer walls in general houses or factories and office buildings. The prefabricated panels are fitted and assembled with each other. Thus, a construction period of time can be reduced. As a result, the prefabricated panels are being widely used. The Inventor also disclosed Korean Utility Model Publication 2002-298884 on December 31, 2002 (corresponding to Korean Utility Model Application No.2002-27027 on September 10, 2002) entitled "Architecturally prefabricated panel" and Korean Utility Model Publication 2003-302419 on January 29, 2003 (corresponding to Korean Utility Model Application No. 2002-33434 on November 8, 2002) entitled "Architecturally prefabricated panel assembly." These prefabricated panels will be described below with reference to FIG. 1.
FIG. 1 is a partially cut perspective view showing a conventional architecturally prefabricated panel assembly. As shown in FIG. 1, a conventional architecturally prefabricated panel assembly includes an
embedded or core member of a metal material in which groove portions and protrude portions each of which has a certain length are formed at an equal distance. Concrete is filled around the groove portions and the protrude portions, so as to have a thickness to enclose the groove portions and the protrude portions in both surfaces of the embedded member.
A hollow portion is formed in each groove portion formed in the embedded member 33. A thermal isolation material is filled in each hollow portion. Apluralityofengagement holes andare formedat an equal distance in the embedded member, in order to prevent the embedded member from being separated from the concrete easily.
Male and female connectors and are formed in both sides of the prefabricated panel assembly, so that the male and female connectors and in one prefabricated panel assembly are connected with the corresponding female and male connectors and in another prefabricated panel assembly. The female connector further includes an engagement groove which is formed by exposing the embedded member. The engagement groove can be fixed to a shape steel or channel constituting a frame with a fixing unit such as a bolt, and engaged with the male connector. Accordingly, the engagement groove is not exposed by the engaged male connector. In this manner, the prefabricated panel assembly is formed.
Inparticular, synthetic resin is foamedandthen the foamed synthetic resin is mixed with concrete to meet lightness, thermal isolation performance anddurability. The foamedsyntheticresinmixedwith concrete is substituted for concrete to achieve lightness.
Since concrete or foamed synthetic resin mixed with concrete is used in the prefabricated panel assembly according to the above-described conventional art, it is difficult to achieve lightness which is one of important features in the prefabricated panel assembly. Since it is not easy to partition internal walls or connect edges or partitions with each other when houses are built by using the prefabricated panels, buildings or structures are not easily constructed.
Disclosure of the Invention To solve the above problems , it is an o j ect of the present invention to provide an architecturally prefabricated panel assembly having a sufficient durability and intensity as well as thermal isolation performance and incombustibility of a prefabricated panel assembly, in which the panel assembly can be prefabricated light and partitions can be easily connected with each other during assembly.
To accomplish the above object of the present invention, there is provided an architecturally prefabricated panel assembly comprising: a panel body having an internal member having lightness, thermal isolation performance and durability, which has female and male connectors respectively on both sides thereof so that neighbouring internal members are connected with each other; high-intensity mortar which is finished on the outer side of the panel body so as to be expressed with a variety of colors; a first metal plate which is finished in the female connector in which an engagement hole is formed so that a firm connection is possible
through an engagement groove; and a second metal plate and embedded members which can reinforce intensities of the male connector and the internal member , respectively, wherein the internal member is formed by foaming a synthetic resin to then be mixed with yellow earth, so that lightness, thermal isolation performance and durability can be met, and wherein an auxiliary embedded member formed of a synthetic resin or metal wire is formed in the high-intensity mortar so that a sufficient intensity performance can be sufficiently maintained.

Best Mode for Carrying out the Invention An architecturally prefabricated panel assembly according to preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings .
Referring to FIGs. 2 through 8, a prefabricated panel assembly 100 includes a panel body 104 having an internal member 101 made of foamed yellow earth mixed with foamed synthetic resin, the having lightness, thermal isolation performance and durability, which has female and male connectors 102 and 103 respectively on both sides thereof so that neighbouring internal members are connected with each other;
Powdered yellow earth is used as the yellow earth constituting the
internal member 101 together with the synthetic resin which is foamed and used. A foaming and plastic material is used as the powdered yellow earth for lightness.
High-intensity mortar 105 is finished on the outer side of the panel body 104 so as to be expressed with a variety of colors. An auxiliary embedded member 106 formed of a synthetic resin or metal wire is formed in the high-intensitymortar 105 so that a sufficient intensity performance can be sufficiently maintained.
A first metal plate 109 is finished in the female connector 102 in which an engagement hole 108 is formed so that a firm connection is possible through an engagement groove 107 during assembly. It is natural that a second metal plate 109 be finished in part of the male connector 103 corresponding to the female connector 102 to maintain an intensity performance. As in a second embodiment illustrated in FIG. 4, a prefabricated panel assembly further includes embedded members 110 which is extended from the metal plate 109 constituting the male connector 102 and penetrating the panel body 104 in order to maintain degree of strength of the panel body 104. Also, as in a third embodiment illustrated in FIG.5, a prefabricated panel assembly has an edge connection panel 115 in which the middle portion of the panel body 104 is bent by 90° so that edge portions can be easily connected during building an architectural structure.
Also, as in a fourth embodiment illustrated in FIG.6, a prefabricated
panel assembly has a multi-directional connection panel 120 which can be connected in three directions or four directions when a building structure is internally partitioned.
Also, as in a fifth embodiment illustrated in FIG.7, a prefabricated panel assembly further includes a female connector 102' formed in the middle of the panel body 104 so as to be easily used when a building structure is internallypartitionedwith the prefabricatedpanel assembly 100 without the multi-directional connection panel 120.
As illustrated in FIG. 8, when a building structure is constructed, prefabricated panel assemblies 100, edge connection panels 115 and multi-directional connection panels 120 are used to form an outer wall 131 and an inner wall 132 of the building structure 130.
The prefabricated panel assemblies 100, edge connection panels 115 and multi-directional connection panels 120 are engaged with each other by using female and male connectors 102 and 103 which are provided in the prefabricated panel assemblies 100, edge connection panels 115 and multi-directional connection panels 120.
In particular, the prefabricated panel assemblies 100, edge connection panels 115 and multi-directional connection panels 120 are firmly connected with each other since fixing units such as bolts and screws are fixed with the engagement grooves 107 formed in the female connector 102.
In the prefabricated panel assembly 100 according to the present invention, the internal member 101 in the panel body 104 is formed by
foaming a synthetic resin to then be mixed with yellow earth, or by foaming synthetic resin to then be mixed with foamed plasticized yellow earth. Accordingly, the prefabricated panel assembly has temperature keeping performance, fireproof, corrosion-resistance, earthquake-proof, durability, and lightness, and thus canbe used to easily construct building structures .
Also, since the prefabricatedpanel assembly according to the present invention has an appropriate weight which is not so heavy or light in comparison with the existing panel assembly, the prefabricated panel assembly can be endured against external pressure such as strong wind.
