Definitions

  • This invention relates to a paving product.
  • the invention has particular application in the paving of outdoor areas although it is not so limited.
  • the invention also relates to a method for producing a composite paving product and a mould suitable for the manufacture of such a product.
  • tile is used to embrace any rigid and discrete unit which may be used in conjunction with other such units for the formation of a paved or other surface for taking pedestrian traffic.
  • the term is used to include baked clay tiles, pavers and mosaic pieces.
  • it has been general practice to lay exterior tiles in the following manner. First, the ground is prepared by levelling the surface. A firm base is applied to the ground surface to form a foundation for the tiles or pavers.
  • a bed of sand is prepared on which the pavers or tiles are laid and they are then compacted into the sand bed using a plate vibrator. Once the pavers are compacted into place dry sand is swept into the joints and vibrated once more. Whilst this methodology is generally quite effective, it does give rise to various difficulties. First, if one is laying a tile pattern which is particularly ornate and with small tiles, the process is particularly time consuming. This generally means that ornate outdoor tiling over a large area is prohibitively expensive for most domestic purposes. Secondly, small tiles laid in this fashion have a tendency to roll over when a high load is applied (such as by the heel of a shoe). If the tile rolls over to any significant extent the tile will become loose.
  • a paving block with incorporates a rigid base section having upper and lower surfaces, a plurality of tiles each having upper and lower faces and a bonding agent which extends from the base section between each of the respective tiles; wherein the said tiles are affixed to the base section and the bonding agent extends between adjacent tiles from the base to a level between the lower and upper faces of the respective tiles.
  • the rigid base section is formed from an aggregate material such as concrete. Most preferred are those concretes which are highly fluid and which are rapid setting.
  • Conventional tiles may be used in the construction of the paving block.
  • the invention has particular application where the tiles used are small and are affixed to the upper surface of the base section in a predetermined pattern.
  • the bonding agent extends from the base section between respective adjacent tiles to a level beneath the upper surface of the tiles. In this way a gap is left between the respective tiles and this gap may be filled in the normal manner with a product such as joint filling sand once the paving blocks have been installed.
  • This joint filling sand is a blend of specially graded fine sands and selective additives.
  • the bonding agent also provides inter-tile adhesion.
  • the bonding agent may be any suitable material which is preferably substantially non-compressible and rigid once it is set. It may be a separate adhesive material applied to the base section between the tiles but preferably it is integral with the base section and is formed from the same material.
  • the bonding agent extends upwardly from the base section to a level representing at least one quarter of the thickness of the tiles. Most preferably the bonding agent extends upwardly from the base section for a distance representing between one third to one half of the thickness of the tiles. Thus for example if the tiles have a thickness of approximately 24mm it is preferred that the bonding agent extend at least 6mm upwardly from the base section between the tiles. Most preferably the bonding agent extends upwardly from the base section by a distance of between 8 to 12mm.
  • the overall thickness of the paving block is between 50 to 60mm and the tiles are between 20 to 25mm. It will be appreciated that the installation of paving blocks made in accordance with the invention significantly simplifies the laying of pattern tiles especially in outdoor applications. Once the appropriate area has been levelled the paving blocks of the invention can be laid side-by-side with each of the tiles fixed in the required or desired pattern. Once the paving blocks have been laid the gaps between the respective tiles can be filled with a joint filling material such as joint filling sand in the normal way.
  • a method of manufacturing a paving block including the following steps:
  • the mould provided is rectangular or square having a base and perpendicular side walls.
  • the side walls are formed from two “L” sections hinged together at respective ends and lockable into position by a toggle latch or the like.
  • the base of the mould preferably includes upstands or ridges so to accurately locate and separate the respective tiies so that they are disposed and maintained in a desired pattern during the construction process.
  • appropriately positioned pins may be located into the base of the mould.
  • Whatever separating means is provided it is preferred that the tiles once located within the base of the mould be separated on ail sides by between 3 to 6mm and most preferably between 4 to 5mm. This gap will match the required sand joint when the constructed paving unit is installed.
  • the gap between the respective tiles when being located into the base of the mould be no more than 7mm.
  • the filler be an absorbent material and fine sand is the preferred filling material. If the filler is fine sand it will prevent any of the subsequently introduced concrete flowing down and staining the upper faces of the tiles.
  • the filler should preferably be introduced between the tiles to a height above the bottom of the mould equal to at least half the thickness of the tiles. Preferably it is introduced to a height equal to between one half and three quarters of the thickness of the tiles.
  • the same uncured concrete mixture is used in both steps (c) and (d) as recited above and is introduced into the mould in a single operation.
  • the concrete used is preferably a highly fluid concrete which when poured into the mould will completely fill the gap between the respective tiles not filled with the sand. Further it is preferred that the concrete be a rapid setting concrete so that the assembled paving block may be removed from the mould reasonably shortly after construction so to make the mould available for the construction of further units. It is preferred that the concrete used be one which will cure within 30 minutes.
  • a mould for constructing a paving block said mould including a base and peripheral side walls wherein the base of the mould is provided with separating means so to locate and separate tiles introduced into the mould in a predetermined pattern.
  • the mould is preferably made from galvanised steel and it is preferred that the side walls be hinged at at least one point.
  • the separating means may be constituted by pins attached to the base of the mould located in appropriate locations or upstands or ridges of appropriate width provided on the base plate of the mould.
  • Figure 1 is a cross-sectional representation of a paving block made in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG 2 is a perspective view of a mould used in the manufacture of a paving block made in accordance with the invention.
  • a paving block 1 which includes a base section 2 and plurality of tiles 3,4,5. Each of the tiles are affixed to the base section 2.
  • a bonding agent 6 extends upwardly from the base section 2 between the respective tiles 4 and 5 and 3 and 4.
  • the bonding agent 6 is integral and made of the same material as the base section 2. Preferably this is a rapid setting concrete.
  • the bonding agent 6 extends to a level equal to half the thickness of the tiles. As previously indicated it is preferred that the bonding extend between the tiles by a distance equal to between one quarter to one half of the thickness of the tiles. The bonding agent 6 does not extend to the level of upper faces 7,8,9 of tiles 3,4,5 respectively thus leaving gaps 10,10a between the tiles towards the upper face of the paving block.
  • any conventional tile or paver may be used in forming the paving block of the invention.
  • ceramic and/or clay tiles and/or pavers are used.
  • the tiles are manufactured from conventional concrete pavers.
  • standard 50mm thick concrete pavers might be used. If these units are cut in half lengthwise one can obtain two thin biscuits each of approximately 23mm in thickness. Concrete pavers can be made to have a particularly aesthetic appearance if they are honed and if using this type of product it is preferred that the 50mm concrete paver be honed on both sides before it is cut into the two thin biscuits. These biscuits may be then further cut using a diamond saw or the like into separate leaves having particular shapes so to create a desired pattern. Of course this procedure is just one of many different options open to one constructing the paving unit of the present invention.
  • the tiles 3,4,5 are each approximately 25mm in thickness.
  • the base section 2 is about 35mm in thickness so that the total thickness of the paving block is about 60mm. It should be appreciated that these dimensions are indicative only and that the dimensions of the paving block may be varied depending on the particular application.
  • the bonding agent 6 extends upwardly from the base section 2 by a distance of approximately 12mm.
  • Figure 2 there is illustrated a mould 11.
  • the mould is square in shape and is formed from a base plate 12 and side walls 13,14.
  • Side walls 13,14 are "L" shaped and are hinged together at point 15.
  • Side walls 13,14 may be locked together at point 16 by a latch such as the toggle latch 17 depicted in Figure 2.
  • the side walls of the mould may be stiffened with angle sections 18 affixed to the side walls such as by spot welding.
  • the base and side walls are formed from galvanised steel.
  • separators 19 Attached to the base plate 12 are separators 19 affixed to the base plate 12 in a pattern which is the mirror image of the desired pattern of the formed paving block.
  • the separators 19 shown in Figure 2 are provided by lengths of galvanised wire soldered to the base plate 12. Alternatively separating pins standing to a height of approximately 5mm may be utilised with two pins being provided for each edge of the respective tiles.
  • the separating means 19 are required to correctly locate the tiles in the desired pattern and to provide a precise gap between each of the respective adjacent tiles.
