Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a tile block wall body, and more specifically, to a tile block wall body in which a mounting face plate and a tile block are combined to be used as an exterior wall or an interior wall of a building. This relates to improvement of tile block wall structure.

[Conventional technology]

The structure of a conventional tile block wall body of this type is shown in FIGS. 14 and 15.

That is, in each of these figures of conventional examples, a tile block wall usually has a mounting face plate 1 fixed to the exterior or interior surface of a building frame (not shown) via a base plate 2. and a tile block 3 which is attached and supported on the outer surface of the mounting face plate 1.
Then, on the outer surface side of the mounting face plate 1, in order to meet various conditions such as the external shape of the tile block 3 and the shape and dimensions of the engagement form, longitudinal sections are formed at predetermined positions in the left and right directions separated by a required interval in the vertical direction. A large number of L-shaped engaging claws 1a are cut and raised, and a locking recess 3a formed on the inner surface side of each tile block 3 is attached to each of these engaging claws 1a to engage and support them, In this way, a wall is constructed by stretching each of these tile blocks 3.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, the conventional tile block wall constructed as described above has joints formed as gaps between adjacent tile blocks 3 stretched on the outer surface of the mounting face plate 1 on the building frame side. ,
Even if a sufficient amount of joint material is filled to completely close the gap, cracks may occur in the joint material due to aging of the wall itself or excessive heating due to fire, etc. This allowed rainwater to enter through the cracks, as shown by the arrows. The rainwater that has entered the inside of the mounting face plate 1 can penetrate into the frame side of the mounting face plate 1 through the relatively large openings that form each of the locking claws 1a, that is, the cut-out holes, and can prevent rain from leaking. It was the cause.

Furthermore, the mounting face plate 1 itself has a simple flat plate shape, which is said to be the weakest in terms of strength, and has a large number of locking claws 1a cut and raised on its outer surface, which tend to reduce strength. However, since no reinforcing measures were taken to achieve this, the strength of the tile block was greatly reduced, making it unsuitable for mounting and supporting a large number of relatively heavy tile blocks 3 as a whole.

On the other hand, in order to maintain the strength of the mounting face plate 1 itself, it is conceivable to form reinforcing ribs or the like on the mounting face plate 1, but with such a means,
Not only does the molding process itself become unnecessarily complicated, leading to an increase in manufacturing costs, but it also creates many gaps between the constituent walls and the frame surface, forcing the entire load of the constituent walls to be applied evenly to the frame. There was also the problem of not being able to do so.

In addition, the thickness of the constituent wall from the frame surface will also increase, so when using it as an indoor decorative wall, etc.
This method has various problems that are not desirable in practice, such as the space becoming narrow and the space not being able to be used effectively.

Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned problems in the conventional device, it is an object of the present invention to prevent rainwater from entering the inside of the mounting face plate, and also to unnecessarily reduce the strength of the mounting face plate itself. Effective reinforcement without increasing wall thickness.
The object of the present invention is to provide a tile block exterior wall of this kind.

[Means of problem solving]

In order to achieve the above object, the tile block exterior wall according to the first aspect of the present invention includes a mounting face plate fixed to the building frame side and having a predetermined mounting area, and a predetermined interval on the outside of the mounting face plate. and a locking member formed with an engaging pawl projecting upward and outward, the locking member being set in a predetermined horizontal or vertical direction with respect to the mounting surface of the mounting face plate. The locking members are integrally connected and fixed at intervals, the locking claws of the locking members engage and support the locking recesses formed on the inner surface of the tile block, and the locking members are attached to the outer surface of the mounting face plate. It is characterized by a large number of tile blocks laid out through the tile blocks.

Moreover, the tile block exterior wall according to the second invention is
A mounting face plate fixed to the building frame side and having a predetermined mounting area, and a plurality of engaging claws fixed to the outside of the mounting face plate at predetermined intervals and protruding upward and outward, and the plate surface. A vertically long locking member with presser claws projecting outward to the sides, an upper cutout recess on the inner surface of the upper edge, and a lower cutout recess on the inner surface of the lower edge. death,
and a tile block having an engagement support recess formed in the middle part of the inner surface, and the locking member is integrally connected and fixed to the mounting surface of the mounting face plate at a predetermined interval in the left and right direction. The engagement pawl of the locking member is engaged and supported by the engagement support recess of the tile block, and the retainer of the locking member is placed between the mutually opposed notch recesses of the vertically adjacent tile blocks. The present invention is characterized in that a claw is interposed and held down, and a large number of tile blocks are stretched on the outer surface of the mounting face plate via respective locking members.

[Effect]

In the tile block exterior wall according to the first invention, the engaging pawls for engaging and supporting each tile block are not formed directly protruding on the mounting face plate as in the conventional case, but the individual engaging claws are fixed on the mounting face plate. Since the engagement support part on the inner surface of each tile block is engaged and supported via the engagement claw protruding from the stopper member, rainwater, etc. that enters through the joints formed between adjacent tile blocks can be prevented. However, it is possible to eliminate the risk of rain entering the inside of the directly attached face plate and causing leakage.

In addition, in order to integrally connect the locking members with engaging claws protruding from the mounting face plate having a predetermined mounting area at predetermined intervals, the strength of the mounting face plate is sufficiently reinforced, and the mounting face plate Even if the thickness is the same as that of the conventional example, it is possible to sufficiently improve the overall strength.

Furthermore, for the above-mentioned reasons, even if the strength of the mounting face plate is the same as that of the conventional example, the overall weight can be further reduced.

Further, according to the tile block exterior wall according to the second invention, in addition to the above-mentioned effects, the engagement support recess of each tile block is engaged and supported by each engagement claw of the locking member, and Since each presser pawl of the locking plate is interposed and held between the mutually opposing notch recesses of adjacent tile blocks, the manner in which the vertically adjacent tile blocks are connected and supported is
This will ensure even stronger security. Therefore, not only small tile blocks but also large tile blocks can be used satisfactorily.
