This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. § 119 (a) of a Korean patent application filed on Nov. 15, 2021 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office and assigned Ser. No. 1020210156583A, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
The present invention relates to a building exterior material that is attached to an exterior or interior wall in a building. More particularly, the present invention relates to an earthquake-resistant building interior and exterior material unit system with thermal insulation that can respond more flexibly to external shocks or earthquakes due to the characteristics of the unit system.
Generally, wet and dry methods are applied to the finishing method of attaching exterior materials to an exterior or interior wall in a building such as a building or an office, where the wet method uses cement mortar as an adhesive material for the construction of the building. However, the curing time of the mortar in the wet method of attaching an exterior material to a wall for construction is long and this method is also uneconomical due to problems in construction.
In addition, dry wall fixing method has also used a method for attaching and constructing an exterior material by installing a separate fixing device made of a structure on the wall of a building. Prior art document number KR101836445 titled “wall finishing assembly with spacing control function” discloses the dry construction method for attaching and constructing a finishing panel to the wall of an existing building. The prior art has the advantage that the mutual smoothness of the finishing panels can be increased by making it possible to finely adjust the spacing of the finishing panels with respect to the wall surface, and the finishing panels installed adjacent to each other are closely located, so that the waterproofing and soundproofing efficiency is excellent.
However, as the frequency of earthquakes is increasing in recent years, existing buildings and facilities do not take into account earthquakes insufficiently and have weak seismic performance, so unexpected earthquakes may occur. As a result, enormous damage can be caused due to breakage or collapse of the assembly of the cited prior art in an event of an earthquake.
Another prior art document KR101602460 titled “seismic panel for vibration absorption” provides a seismic panel for reducing damage by simultaneously absorbing horizontal and vertical vibrations generated in a building due to an existing earthquake. This prior art can absorb horizontal and vertical vibrations occurring in a building due to an earthquake at the same time by installing and using a moving member inserted into the guide rail in the vertical and horizontal directions of the vibration-absorbing panel for vibration absorption.
Further, the moving member is also inserted in the side frame by using the corner frame to support the fixed member, to prevent twisting or twisting of the finished panel. However, the wall finishing assembly having a gap control function presented in the above-cited prior art is a structure in which a vertical frame and a horizontal frame are attached to the wall of a building in a grid form, and a holding bracket and a finishing panel are attached to the frame, As a result, since the frame and the finishing panel are installed in the form of a grid in the cited prior art have a large load, thereby making them vulnerable to earthquakes. Besides, since all construction work is carried out at the work site, workability and constructability are poor.
In addition, the “vibration-resistant panel” required in the above-cited prior art uses a moving member inserted into the guide rail and a corner frame that supports the side frame to simultaneously absorb horizontal and vertical vibrations caused by an earthquake. As a result, as the fixed part is fastened to the outer wall of the building with bolts, the fixed part is easily separated from the outer wall of the building during vibration due to an earthquake. Thus, the durability and safety of assembly of the above-cited prior art deteriorate.
Thus, there is presently a need to improve the drawbacks, shortcomings, and limitations associated with the existing technologies, by providing an earthquake-resistant building interior/exterior material unit system having the earthquake-resistant capability.
The present invention overcomes the drawbacks, shortcomings, and limitations associated with the above-cited prior arts by an earthquake-resistant building interior/exterior material unit system having the earthquake-resistant capability. The present invention achieves this by assembling exterior materials in advance in a factory to meet the specifications and standards of buildings and manufacturing them as units and manufacturing a plurality of exterior material units at the work site. Further, the exterior material units are attached to the walls of a building with an anchor bolt. The present invention has excellent workability and constructability, and as a number of building exterior materials are manufactured as a unit, productivity and economy are also excellent.
In the present invention, a pair of vertical frames are spaced apart from each other and are arranged symmetrically, such that the guide groove is formed in the longitudinal direction. Further, a plurality of exterior materials are attached to and installed on the outer side of the frame, and a plurality of clips are attached to and installed on the side portion of the one side frame. A bracket is then fixedly installed with a fastening bolt on a side portion of a frame on one side of the exterior material unit and an anchor bolt is fixedly installed on the wall of the building.
In addition, as an embodiment of the present invention, the frame is formed with a guide groove formed in the longitudinal direction on the side portion. The blade is formed to extend outwardly on the outer portion. The blade is formed with a cutting groove in the upper edge portion and the lower edge portion, respectively. Further, a plurality of cutting grooves are formed spaced apart at a predetermined interval.
In addition, as an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of side holes are formed through the side of the frame at predetermined intervals on one side of the frame. In addition, as an embodiment of the present invention, the clip is constructed with a rod having a predetermined length on the outer side, and the rod is inserted into a side hole of a frame on one side to be assembled.
In addition, as an embodiment of the present invention, a long hole is formed on each surface bent at a right angle, and an outer surface that is in close contact with the side part of one side of the frame is formed in a round shape.
In addition, as an embodiment of the present invention, the bracket is formed with protrusions in the form of serrations on each inner surface bent at a right angle, and a washer having serrations formed to correspond to the protrusions is configured.
In addition, as an embodiment of the present invention, a protrusion is formed in a sawtooth shape on the side surface of the frame, and a protrusion is formed in a sawtooth shape on the outer surface of the bracket in close contact with the side surface of the frame. In an embodiment of the present invention, by assembling an exterior material to meet the specifications and standards of a building in a factory and manufacturing it as a unit, and attaching a plurality of exterior material units to the wall of the building with anchor bolts at the work site, the workability and constructability are improved.
Besides, the installation time is also reduced while reducing the workforce. Further, as a plurality of exterior materials is manufactured as a unit, productivity and economic efficiency are also excellent. In addition, in the embodiment of the present invention, since the exterior material unit is installed so that it can flow left and right, it has excellent seismic performance in response to external shocks or earthquakes, and the outer surface of the bracket is formed in a round shape. There is an effect that allows the exterior material unit to flow more flexibly in the bracket.
In addition, the existing prior art uses a heavy iron pipe to install an underlayment on the wall of a building, but the embodiment of the present invention uses an aluminum frame with excellent ductility, so the load is light and there is no fear of corrosion as well as a long lifespan. Besides, it is semi-permanent, and there is no risk of fire because welding is not required at the work site.
