Description

DESCRIPTION

THERMAL INSULATING PANEL

The invention, as indicated in the wording of the present specification, refers to a panel for thermal insulation in buildings that is composed of a sheet of mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass to which a Expanded polystyrene sheet for use as a coating for exterior and interior thermal insulation systems in all types of buildings.

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention falls within the construction sector, specifically, in the field of the production of concrete or mortar panels reinforced with fiberglass from prefabricated elements.

STATE OF THE ART

At present, and with reference to the state of the art, it should be noted that there are external thermal insulation materials and systems called SATE or EIFS, which are widely known and used in the construction field. These systems are composed, for the most part, of expanded polystyrene or rock wool insulation, which is fixed to a supporting wall using mechanical, chemical or mixed fixings. Once the insulation has been fixed to the supporting wall, a layer of armor is placed over the insulation, which is composed of a fiberglass mesh in conjunction with a mortar and finally the finishing layer that is consistent is applied. in a plaster of the chosen color. All these works are carried out on site at the construction site and manually.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

An object of the present invention is a thermal insulating panel that consists of a panel composed of a sheet of mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass of about 5 mm thick in conjunction with a sheet of expanded polystyrene with the required or demanded thickness. Its production begins with the projection or pouring of a sheet of mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass of about 5 mm thick to which an expanded polystyrene sheet with the required thickness is adhered, thus obtaining in the plant of production of a panel that contains the desired thermal requirements and that can have hundreds of textures, shades and colors, avoiding all the work on the traditional exterior or interior thermal insulation systems, since only the panel obtained has to be fixed to the wall support and seal the joints, performing these jobs dry, and practically without generating residues on site.

In a first aspect, the object of the invention is achieved with the characteristics described in claim 1. The particular or preferred embodiments of the invention are described in the claims dependent on the first claim. More specifically, the panel of the invention is characterized in that it is obtained through a process that comprises making a mold with the measurements, geometry and texture required by the thermally insulating panel; projecting or pouring a layer of mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass; adhere a layer of expanded polystyrene to the sprayed or poured layer of mortar or concrete; curing the fiberglass reinforced concrete or mortar layer until it fuses with the expanded polystyrene layer; demoulding the thermal insulating panel that comprises the layer of mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass fused with the layer of expanded polystyrene.

In a second aspect of the invention, the object of the invention describes a thermal insulating panel consisting of a first layer of mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass fused with a second layer of expanded polystyrene. Finally, the use of the thermal insulating panel of the invention as an external or internal thermal insulator in buildings is claimed.

Throughout the description and claims the word "comprise" and its variants are not intended to exclude other technical characteristics, additives, components or steps. For those skilled in the art, other objects, advantages and characteristics of the invention will emerge partly from the description and partly from the practice of the invention. The following examples and drawings are provided by way of illustration, and are not intended to restrict the present invention. Furthermore, the present invention covers all possible combinations of particular and preferred embodiments indicated herein.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

EXHIBITION OF A DETAILED MODE OF EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

As can be seen in the attached figures, the present invention proposes a method of manufacturing a panel for external thermal insulation composed of a sheet of mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass (2) -which has an approximate thickness of 5 mm- in conjunction with an expanded polystyrene sheet (3) thick in accordance with thermal requirements and current regulations for external and internal thermal insulation in buildings.

The manufacturing process of said panel consists of preparing a mold (1) according to the measurements, geometry and texture required by the panel in each specific project. All the elements that make up the panel (4) are, logically, calculated to be used for the proposed purpose, which is that of cladding for thermal insulation.

In the mold (1), some boards are placed with the height of the sheet of mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass (about 5 mm) plus the height of the expanded polystyrene sheet (3). Once the mold (1) has been formed, a release agent is applied to the mold (1) and subsequently the mortar or concrete reinforced with fiberglass is projected or poured onto the mold (1).

The projection is carried out by means of machines that project the mortar to a gun that in turn cuts the fiberglass bundle, projecting both materials on the mold to later compact the mortar and fiber with metal rollers and trowels to its compaction and pouring is done by the biker fluid together with the fiberglass.

Once the fiberglass-reinforced concrete or mortar sheet (2) has been projected and compacted or poured, the expanded polystyrene sheet (3) is adhered to the fiberglass-reinforced concrete or mortar sheet. glass (2) by aligning and pressing it on the sheet of fiberglass-reinforced concrete or mortar (2) to subsequently allow the fiberglass-reinforced concrete or mortar to cure (2) and the fusion between both and thus obtain the panel (4) object of the invention. Logically, once the mortar has been cured, it will be removed from the mold, quality control and packaging for shipment to customers.
