A PRODUCT TO PROVIDE HEAT INSULATION ON THE OUTER SIDINGS OF THE BUILDINGS

AND A MOUNTING METHOD THEREOF

Subject of the Invention

The present invention relates to a product to be used on the outer sidings of the buildings, providing heat insulation, possible to be applied without profile and providing a tile-covered facade as its apparent front surface is tile.

Present State of the Art In the embodiments according to the state of the art, when the similar siding materials are used in the building facades, curtain walls are created by using ceramic plate, aluminum plate derivatives or other siding materials by means of profiled mounting method on condition that the gap that the profile has created will be covered with a heat insulation material or curtain walls are created by means of providing exterior thermal sheating by using heat insulation material, plaster, last layer covering plaster and external wall paint and at the same time heat insulation is provided.

As it wastes time to obtain the materials to be used for insulation in the embodiments according to the state of art one by one and to mount them during the application in the building site, it also causes some quality problems and additional costs along with some functional loss.

The present invention relates to a product to be used on the outer sidings of the buildings, providing heat insulation, possible to be applied without profile and providing a tile-covered facade as its apparent front surface is tile. The present invention ends the requirement that different materials are mounted one by one after having been obtained for providing insulation for the buildings. Therefore building heat insulation is provided by means of only one single product. Moreover although it is mounted without using profile, an outer siding having a longer physical life than that of a building generally is made possible as the apparent outer siding is made of ceramic or other materials that can be used on outer sidings of the buildings.

The product according to the present invention comprises three main parts as insulation material (2), surrounding wall (1) and tile (8); wherein the insulation material (2) and the surrounding wall (1) are formed as one single part (3) in other words they have a monolithic structure, and then the tile (8) is mounted onto the front surface of this monolithic structure (3), that is the uncovered surface of the insulation material (2), and therefore the visible front surface of the product becomes the tile.

The insulation material (2) is surrounded with the surrounding wall (1) in a way that one of its surfaces will be uncovered. Three holes (4,5) are created on the monolithic structure (3) formed in this way as shown in Figure 2, and these holes pierce both the surrounding wall and the insulation material. The holes on the right and left edges (4) are the holes through which the wall plugs (6) pass in order to enable the one-piece structure (3) composed of insulation material (2) and surrounding wall (1) to be mounted onto the mounting surface

(7) or to the wall (7), while the other hole (5) in the middle is the hole which enables the tile

(8) to be mounted onto the wall/surface (7) and also onto the front surface of the monolithic structure (3) composed of insulation material and surrounding wall. The insulation material

(2) in the product is polyurethane foam, and also possible to be XPS. The used surrounding wall is reinforced concrete, and within the present invention it is possible for it to be made of a different material that will be suitable to be used.

The male part (9) of the clamp connection is sticked onto the rear surface of the tile (8) to be mounted onto the one-piece structure (3) during the mounting process (Figure 7). The male part (9) of the clamp connection is mounted onto the rear surface of the tile in a way that it will be located in the center of the surface in alignment with the hole (5) located in the middle on the structure (3) composed of insulation material (2) and surrounding wall (1) and will get into the female part (10) mounted into the hole (5). The part called as the clamp connection is composed of a female part (10), the inner surface of which is serrated (indented) and which is considered as a housing that the male part (9) gets into; and a male part (9) having a surface in accordance with that of the female part. During the packing process, the male part (9) mounted onto the rear surface of the tile is made to pass through the middle hole (5) on the structure consisting of surrounding wall and insulation material and therefore transferred to the location where it will be mounted.

A cement-based adhesive is applied onto the rear surface of the monolithic structure (3) composed of the surrounding wall (1) and insulation material (2), which is unpacked for the mounting process, and after binding a gauge on the mounting surface (7), the structure is mounted on the surface (7) by being adhered from its rear surface. Then, the wall surface/mounting surface (7) is pierced from the holes (4) located on the right and left of the product, and the monolithic structure (3) is mechanically mounted onto the surface (7) by means of wall plugs (6). Therefore the monolihic structure (3) consisting of insulation material and the surrounding wall is mounted onto the surface (7) both by adhering method and mechanically by using wall plugs. By repeating the said process, the unpacked monolithic (one-piece) structures are mounted onto the mounting surface. Before the tile (8) is mounted onto the monolithic one-piece structure (3), as it is shown in Figure 5, a chemical insulation material is applied onto the connection joints (11) of the one-piece structures (3) composed of insulation material and surrounding wall mounted on the surface. The wall surface (7) is pierced from the hole (5) previously made in the center of the monolithic (one-piece) structure (3), and the female part (10) of the clamp is fitted onto the wall/mounting surface (7), wherein the inner surface of the said female part is serrated (indented) and the male part (9) of the clamp connection located on the rear surface of the tile gets into it (10). A polyurethane-based adhesive is applied without any interruption only through the short edges of the rear surface of the tile (8) and through the short edges of the front surface of the surrounding wall in the monolithic structure (3) consisting of insulation material and surrounding wall. The male clamp connection part (9) on the rear surface of the tile (8) is located on the one-piece structure (3) in a way that it will get into the female part (10) in the center of the monolithic structure composed of the insulation material and surrounding wall, and the tile (8) is pushed until the male part (9) is fitted totally into the female part (10) without leaving any space, and therefore the parts are locked up. Because of the inner surface structure of the female part and the surface structure of the male part, the tile (8) is provided to be locked on the structure (3) composed of surrounding wall and insulation material and on the wall surface, and therefore it is prevented from removing. Therefore the tile (8) is mounted on the surface of the monolithic structure (3) composed of surrounding wall and insulation material and on the wall surface both mechanically and by being adhered from its short edges. As the tile (8) in the product is mounted from one point and from the center, until the polyurethane-based adhesive becomes effective, the circular movement of the tile (8) is possible and the joint adjustment can be made by means of the said circular movement of the tile (8). After the joint adjustment is made by means of this movement of the tile (8), the mounting process is completed.

It is possible within the present invention that the tile (8) located on the outer front surface of the product be made of ceramic or any other material appropriate for outer siding or plastic, wooden, glass, metal, aluminium, aluminium composite, granite, natural stone, marble, laminate, vinyl, pressed brick, flakeboard or composite materials, and also it is possible to use these materials within the present invention.
