Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a wall insulation panel for use on a wall and including a vacuum insulating panel (VIP), as well as wall insulation cladding comprising a series of said wall insulation panels, in particular to provide a continuous VIP plane.
  • VIP vacuum insulating panel
  • Vacuum insulating panels are a highly efficient advanced thermal insulation technology, having at least 3-7 times more effective insulation ability than conventional plastic foams or fibrous insulation.
  • VIP panels are increasingly used to enhance the performance of static goods such as refrigerators, and in refrigerated vehicles.
  • VIP panels are increasingly being used or proposed to be used in the insulation of buildings, especially with the aim of making buildings more thermally efficient.
  • VIP panels are generally more compact (by being thinner) than existing insulation panels, ensuring savings in both space and energy. Insulation within 'cavity' walls is well known, but it is also desired to improve the insulation on the outside walls of buildings.
  • outer wall insulation for buildings is provided by solid panels formed with traditional foam or fibrous insulation.
  • Such panels provide a robust product able to withstand handling during the construction and installation processes, as well as being able to be cut and shaped into any size, and be secured to the wall by easy fixing methods including nails and other fixing brackets, which can deliberately or accidently go through such panels without significantly affecting its insulation properties.
  • a final layer is usually added to provide a smooth and uniform finish to the outside of the building, both for weather shielding, and as the final outwardly facing layer that defines the 'view' of the building.
  • VIP panels by involving a vacuum, are generally less robust, and require at least some protection during installation and fixing to withstand the handling involved.
  • VIP panels for building purposes are completely enveloped on all sides in one or more foam protective layers to form an insulation panel.
  • the overall effectiveness of the vacuum insulation is reduced when a number of such panels are brought together to form an overall surface or cladding.
  • the foam protection surrounds the VIP panels on all sides, isolating the VIP panels, so that providing a number of such panels together does not create any continuation of the 'vacuum insulation' properties of the separate VIP panels.
  • 'heat highways' i.e. easier pathways for heat to travel, are created for the passage of heat from one side the such insulation panels to the other side, generally from the outside to the inside.
  • the heat highways are formed between the VIP panels where the foam protection breaks the meeting of the actual vacuum insulation part of each panel, despite the insulation panels meeting.
  • a wall insulation panel for use on a wall comprising at least the successive layers of:
  • a first protective panel having a wall-meeting surface and a vacuum insulating panel (VIP) facing surface, an intermediate VIP panel;
  • a second protective panel having a VIP facing surface and an outward facing surface; characterised in that there is an expansion region between at least one of the first and second protective panels and the VIP panel to allow for expansion of the VIP panel without deformation of the outward facing surface of the second protective panel.
  • the expansion region allows for expansion of the VIP panel without deformation of the VIP facing surface of the second panel, and thus without deformation of the outward facing surface. This maintains the integrity and aesthetic appearance of the outward facing surface, and any further surface or layer thereon, such as a rendered layer.
  • the wall insulation panel of the present invention is usable on any type, form and extent of wall, being for example an inner wall, outer wall, ceiling, roof, floor, door or any other surface intended to provide a similar structure, and not limited thereto.
  • the nature, extent, design and shape of the wall are not limiting factors to the present invention.
  • the wall insulation panel is usable on the outer wall of a building.
  • Typical but not limiting dimensions of the wall insulation panels could be in the range 0.3m to 2.5m 'wide', 0.3m to 4m 'tall' , and 50mm to 500mm 'thick'.
  • the nature, size, shape and design of the first protective panel is not limiting to the present invention. It can be formed of any suitable material, preferably a durable plastic foam, and more preferably selected from the group consisting of expanded polystyrene (EPS), extruded polystyrene (XPS), polyurethane (PU), PIR (Polyisocyanurate foam), aluminium or any rigid plastic.
  • EPS expanded polystyrene
  • XPS extruded polystyrene
  • PU polyurethane
  • PIR Polyisocyanurate foam
  • the nature, size, shape and design of the second protective panel is not limiting to the same invention, and can be the same or different to that of the first protective panel.
  • the second protective panel can also be formed of any suitable material, more preferably a durable plastic foam, and even more preferably selected from the group consisting of expanded polystyrene (EPS), extruded polystyrene (XPS), polyurethane (PU), PIR (Polyisocyanurate foam), aluminium or any rigid plastic.
  • EPS expanded polystyrene
  • XPS extruded polystyrene
  • PU polyurethane
  • PIR Polyisocyanurate foam
  • aluminium aluminium or any rigid plastic.
  • the second protective panel has an outward facing surface.
  • outward is used herein to mean the opposite to the "wall-meeting surface", and in the same way that most building walls have an inner facing surface and an outer or outward facing surface.
  • the "outward" facing surface of a panel is that surface of the panel which is still visible following the application of the panel to a wall.
  • the intermediate VIP panel may have any suitable nature, size, shape and design accommodatable between the first and second protective panels.
  • the VIP panel may be formed of any suitable outer film, membrane, wall, covering, etc., generally termed the 'membrane material', within which there is a vacuum.
  • the vacuum may be of any suitable pressure, generally being lower than 'ambient' or 'atmospheric' pressure, such as less than 5 mbar for fumed silica filled VIP, and less than 1 mbar for mineral wool filled VIP.

  • the membrane or covering material of the VIP panel is intended to resist to the transfer of gasses from the atmosphere to the interior of the panel, which obviously reduces the vacuum-insulating performance of the panel, and also expands the size of the panel.
  • a membrane material such as aluminium foil has good vacuum-resisting properties, as well as being easily 'sealable' during the method of manufacturing the VIP panels.
  • One or more further layers or coverings may be inside or outside the membrane material.
  • the VIP panel may include one or more internal media.
  • Internal media include materials such as aerogel, silica, especially fumed silica, fibreglass and microfibreglass.
  • the VIP panel used in the present invention is a fumed silica VIP panel, available from Dow Corning Corporation of Midland, MI, USA.
  • the expansion region between at least one of the first and second protective panels and the VIP panel of the present invention allows for expansion of the VIP panel without deformation of the outward facing surface of the second panel.
  • the integrity of the outward facing surface can be maintained.
  • This integrity includes but is not limited to, being a barrier against the environment, in particular the weather, as well as the aesthetic appearance of the outward facing surface, or any further layer or surface or material added on to the outward facing surface.

  • the expansion region may comprise any area or space able to accommodate expansion of the vacuum insulating panel within the dimensions of the wall insulation panel, without affecting the shape or plane of the outward facing surface of the second protective panel.
  • the expansion region may extend partly, substantially or wholly across one or more surfaces of the VIP panel. In particular, it may be partly, substantially or wholly of the same dimensions as at least one of the VIP facing surfaces of the first and second protective panels.
  • the length and width of the expansion region wholly or substantially matches the length and width of the VIP panel.
  • the expansion region has a wholly or substantially constant depth, 'depth' being that dimension extending transverse from one side of the VIP panel.
  • the expansion region includes a compensation layer.
