DECORATIVE WARMTH-KEEPING PANEL AND WAY FOR ATTACHMENT OF DECORATIVE WARMTH-KEEPING PANEL Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: construction industry, warmth-keeping and decorative facing of outer and inner surfaces of both erected and maintained buildings. SUBSTANCE: decorative warmth-keeping panel comes in the form of rigid structure made of facing and heat insulation layers, fastening member and additional horizontal supporting member. Panel also includes vertical supporting member and stuffing washers. Facing layer comes in the form of thin layer of plaster, reinforcing net, plaster and decorative finishing layers. Fastening member is produced in the form of right-angle metal cage with walls made of unequal angles which horizontal large flanges face inwards of cage and carry hooks engaging left and lower walls of cage and which horizontal large flanges of angles face outwards and carry fastening pockets and holes in right and upper walls of cage. Fixing holes are made in all small vertical flanges of angles of walls of cage. Metal cage is equipped with bottom made of polyethylene film and box produced from refractory material inside which heat insulation and facing layers are located. Horizontal and vertical supporting members have fastening pockets and holes similar to pockets and holes in upper and right walls of cage. Decorative warmth-keeping panel is installed as follows: vertical supporting member is mounted in left part of building, first panel of lower row is fixed on it and horizontal supporting member by placement of panel hooks in pockets of supporting members, right edge is additionally attached to bearing structure, next panels are mounted to the right and upwards by placement of hooks of next mounted panel in pockets of panel mounted before to form tight joint, right edge of mounted panel is additionally attached to bearing structure. Panels are attached to bearing structure with simultaneous formation of ventilation ducts due to installation of stuffing washers between panel and surface of bearing structure. Joints are sealed by application of putty to surfaces of joined edges and displacement of hooks in pockets of matched panels till their tight connection without any gap is achieved. EFFECT: enhanced warmth-keeping efficiency thanks to joining of panel by vertical and horizontal edges with total exclusion of gap at their joint and utilization of materials of low heat conduction, reduced labor input to assembly of panels. 2 cl, 5 dwg
