The present invention relates to an insulating block assembly for buildings comprising the characteristics expressed in the preamble to claim 13.

The present invention further relates to a method for the realisation of an insulating block assembly for buildings comprising the characteristics expressed in the preamble to claim 1.

In particular, the present invention is suitable for use in the construction industry and specifically for constructions such as houses, buildings and similar infrastructures requiring adequate thermal and/or acoustic insulation with respect to the surrounding environment.

Normally, the construction of the peripheral walls of the aforementioned buildings is accomplished by forming primarily a first wall destined to constitute the inner face of the wall, comprising bricks stacked vertically according to horizontal courses. On the outer side of the first wall is subsequently applied, with appropriate fastening means, a series of insulating panels in such a way as to define a substantially continuous insulating layer. A second wall of bricks is then erected, destined to constitute the outer face of the wall. The second brick wall can be realised directly against the insulating panels forming a single body, as disclosed for example in DE 8 809 461 U, or it can be realised at a pre-set distance from the insulating panel so as to define a gap for aeration and/or the placement of electrical elements or elements of other kinds.

Another known and widely used technique for the realisation of insulating walls entails forming an inner wall of bricks and, subsequently, an outer wall of bricks distanced therefrom, to define a gap between the two. In the gap is then poured an expandable insulating material which solidifies, consequently defining an insulating layer.

To obtain a better insulation and simplify construction operations, the Applicant has introduced on the market a type of insulating block assembly for buildings substantially comprising two small blocks usually made of tile material such as mixed clay, between which is interposed a body of insulating material constituted by polystyrene foam.

Such insulating block assemblies are realised by positioning a first and a second clay block at a pre-set mutual distance so as to define a gap between them. Into the gap is poured a predefined quantity of insulating material in granular form which is expanded by means of a flow of steam made to pass through the insulating material itself. Simultaneously with its expansion, the insulating material solidifies defining a solid insulating block which remains permanently engaged to the blocks. The union between the insulating body and the blocks of the insulating block assembly is assured by suitable undercuts defined by dovetail grooves provided on the mutually opposite sides of the blocks.

The aforementioned insulating block assembly allow the realisation of insulating peripheral walls with a single laying operation of the insulating block assemblies themselves, stacked and fastened one adjacently to the other according to successively superposed courses.

Once the masonry is completed, it can be distinguished in three parts. A first part and a second part, respectively oriented towards the interior and the exterior of the construction, are defined respectively by the first and by the second clay block of each insulating block assembly, and a third part, interposed between the first and the second part, is defined by the set of insulating bodies which consequently form an insulating layer extending according to the entire extension of the wall. Such a kind of insulating block assembly is disclosed in the document EP0041417A.

Although the insulating block assemblies indicated above are particularly well suited to realise in a practical and easy manner thermo-insulating walls with very good physical, chemical and mechanical qualities, such insulating block assemblies are nonetheless not wholly free of some drawbacks.

In particular, the current method for the realisation of insulating block assemblies presents a series of limitations relating to the time required for production since it is necessary, after forming the two clay blocks, to position them at a precise mutual distance, and then to proceed with forming the insulating body. The precise positioning of a block with respect to the other entails, in itself, a slowdown in the production cycle of the insulating block assembly which is further slowed by the insulating body formation stage. The formation of the insulating body requires relatively high waiting times to allow for the expansion of the insulating material and its subsequent solidification.

The Applicant has observed that it is possible to improve the production of the insulating block assembly described above, considerably reducing their realisation time.

In addition to the problem described above, it should be considered that for the realisation of the insulating block assemblies it is necessary to have available complex production facilities calling for the presence of expensive and bulky machinery.

It should further be considered that the production of insulating block assemblies provided with insulating body like the one described does not allow the use of insulating materials other than polystyrene foam. This is a considerable disadvantage since it is not possible to produce items presenting different heat-insulating and/or sound-insulating characteristics, forcing the manufacturer to market only one kind of item.

The technical task constituting the basis for the present invention is to devise an insulating block assembly for buildings that is able substantially to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.

Within the scope of said technical task, an important aim of the invention is to devise an insulating block assembly for buildings that presents optimal heat-insulating and sound-insulating characteristics and that can be manufactured rapidly with modest production costs.

Another important aim of the invention is to devise an insulating block assembly for buildings that can be realised with an insulating layer of any material and/or thickness without entailing particular complications for the adaptation of the machinery to the type of item in production.

The technical task set out herein and the specified aims are substantially attained by a method for the realisation of an insulating block assembly for buildings comprising the characteristics expressed in the characterising part of claim 1.

The technical task set out herein and the specified aims are further attained by an insulating block assembly for buildings comprising the characteristics expressed in the characterising part of claim 13.

The description of some preferred but not exclusive embodiments of an insulating block assembly for buildings according to the present invention is provided below, purely by way of non limiting indicative example, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein:

With reference to the aforementioned figures, the number 1 indicates in its entirety an insulating block assembly for buildings in accordance with the present invention.

As Figures 1 through 4 show, the insulating block assembly 1 comprises a first block 2 preferably made of clay presenting a plurality of lightening through openings 2a oriented vertically. The insulating block assembly 1 further comprises a second block 3 engaged to the first block 2, also preferably made of clay and presenting a series of lightening through openings 3a.

The first and the second block 2, 3 are mutually engaged by means of the interposition of at least an insulating body 4 which can be made of different materials depending on the technical requirements to be met. In particular, for the rigid engagement of the first block 2 and of the second block 3 to the insulating body 4 the insulating block assembly 1 provides for the presence of at least a first and a second mechanical coupling elements 5 fastened respectively in correspondence with opposite sides of the insulating body 4. More specifically it is preferable for each block 2, 3 to be fastened to the insulating body 4 by means of at least two mechanical coupling elements 5 appropriately distanced from each other.

Each mechanical coupling element 5 presents at least an attachment portion 5a for fastening itself to the insulating body 4 and at least a coupling portion 5b destined to engage at least a respective coupling seat 6 obtained in the corresponding block 2, 3. The rigid junction between each mechanical coupling element 5 and the insulating body 4 is secured by means of at least a mechanical fastening element 7 operatively engaged between the insulating body 4 and the attachment portion 5a of the mechanical fastening element itself.

In the embodiments illustrated in the accompanying figures, each mechanical fastening element 7 is set to make fast, with respect to the insulating body 4, in correspondence with opposite sides thereof, two mechanical coupling elements 5. More specifically, each mechanical fastening element 7 extends through the insulating body 4 and presents a first and a second extremity 7a, 7b set to retain the respective mechanical coupling elements 5 with respect to the insulating body 4.

It is also possible, depending on the requirements, for the mechanical, coupling element 5 not to be fastened to the insulating body 4 in pairs, but to be individually fastened thereto. In this situation, an extremity 7a, 7b of the mechanical fastening element 7 retains, with respect to the insulating body 4, the respective mechanical coupling element 5, whereas the other extremity 7a, 7b is positioned directly against the insulating body 4, with the possible interposition of a rigid plate or the like.

Preferably, each mechanical coupling element 5 is rigidly associated to the insulating body 4 by means of two mechanical fastening elements 7 set parallel and mutually distanced in such a way as to prevent the fastening element from rotating in undesirable manners.

To ensure the correct and precise mutual distancing between the mechanical coupling elements, tubular spacers 8 can be provided, each positioned around a respective mechanical fastening element 7.

More specifically each spacer 8 is co-axially inserted on the respective mechanical fastening element 7 and presents a length substantially no lesser than the thickness of the insulating body 4.

Each spacer 8 further presents respective opposite extremities 8a in contact relationship with the attachment portions 5a of the respective mechanical coupling elements 5. Consequently, when the mechanical coupling elements 5 are fastened to the insulating body 4, the mechanical coupling elements 5 are set directly against the extremities 8a of the spacer 8 without any risk of damaging the insulating body 4 during the assembly phases effected to construct the insulating block assembly 1.

It is also possible for each spacer 8 associated to the respective mechanical fastening element 7 to be realised in such a way as to have a length greater than the thickness of the insulating body 4 (see Figure 2). In this way it is possible to obtain between the insulating body 4 and at least one of the blocks 2, 3, a gap 9 for aeration and/or for inserting - as required - pipelines, electrical cables, or other elements into the wall to be built.

It should further be noted that the gap 9 can be realised between the first block and the insulating body 4 or, if necessary, two gaps 9 can be realised, respectively interposed between the blocks 2, 3 and the insulating body 4.

As shown in Figure 2, when the insulating block assembly 1 is provided with at least a gap 9, at least a known securing element 9a is externally engaged to each spacer 8 to prevent the insulating body 4 from sliding along the spacers themselves. More specifically, the securing elements 9a are engaged to the spacers 8 in correspondence with the side of the insulating body 4 that faces the gap 9. When two gaps 9 are provided, on each spacer 8 are engaged two securing elements 9a situated respectively against the opposite sides of the insulating body 4. These securing elements 9a hold the insulating body fast with respect to the spacers themselves in the desired position.

Preferably, each mechanical fastening element 7 comprises a rivet which is fastened to the insulating body 4 and to the respective mechanical coupling elements 5 according to a method which will be described farther on.

As Figures 1 and 2 show, each mechanical coupling element 5 can comprise an elastically yielding deformed laminar element, whose coupling portion is defined by lateral tabs 5b converging symmetrically away from the attachment portion 5a, according to a substantially transverse orientation. The lateral tabs 5b are provided with folded back terminal portions 5c presenting for instance a rounded profile (Figure 1) or an acute angle profile (Figure 2), set to engage respective strike portions 6a obtained in the coupling seat 6 substantially defined by a recess provided with receiving surfaces 6b diverging externally with respect to block 2, 3, towards the insulating body 4. More in detail, when the insulating body 4 is made fast to the respective block 2, 3, the lateral tabs 5b of each coupling element 5 are elastically pressed against one another by sliding with interference on the receiving surfaces 6b of the coupling seat 6. When the terminal portions of the lateral tabs 5b reach the strike portions 6a they snap elastically, engaging the strike portions 6a as stated above. Once they have snapped, the lateral tabs 5b interact with the strike portions 6a of the respective coupling seat 6 to hold the insulating body fast to the respective block 2, 3.

Figure 3 shows a third embodiment which provides for each mechanical coupling element 5 to comprise a laminar element which may be rigid, set to be inserted by sliding into the respective coupling seat 6.

In this case, the coupling seat is shaped in the manner of a through groove with two lateral surfaces 6b converging externally to the respective block 2, 3 i.e. towards the insulating body 4, to form an undercut in the coupling seat itself.

Each rigid laminar element presents as a coupling portion 5b interference tabs which diverge symmetrically away from the attachment portion 5a according to a substantially transverse orientation with respect thereto. The insulating body 4 is made fast to the respective blocks 2, 3 by inserting the laminar elements 5 into the corresponding coupling seats 6, determining a relative sliding between the insulating body 4 and the blocks themselves on the plane of their sides that face each other.

Figure 4 shows a fourth embodiment wherein each mechanical coupling element 5 comprises a laminar element, elastically yielding, presenting lateral tabs 5b extending symmetrically from the attachment portion 5a and provided with respective terminal appendices 5c substantially oriented one towards the other. In this solution, the coupling seats 6 comprise coupling projections 6c destined operatively to engage the respective laminar element 5.

In detail, when the insulating body 4 is made fast to the respective block 2, 3 each coupling projection 6c is inserted between the lateral tabs 5b of the respective laminar elements 5 spreading the lateral tabs themselves.

Subsequently, such lateral tabs 5b are coupled by snapping in appropriate cavities 6b obtained on the coupling projection 6c securing the junction between the insulating body 4 and the respective block 2, 3.

The realisation of the insulating block assembly 1 requires first the formation of the first and second block 2,3, usually obtainable by extruding a clay mixture and subsequently drying and baking, as well as of the insulating body 4.

The insulating body 4, formed as a distinct, separate element from the blocks 2, 3, is preferably realised in the form of a rectangular panel, for instance made of polystyrene, cork or any other insulating material, obtained for instance by means of moulding, calendering or any other conventional technique.

Advantageously, a plurality of insulating bodies 4 can be obtained by a simple cutting or die-cutting operation of a single previously formed panel.

The mechanical coupling elements 5 and the mechanical fastening elements 7 are also realised separately from the insulating body 4 and from the blocks 2, 3.

The insulating body 4 is readied for assembly with the blocks 2, 3 by fastening the mechanical coupling elements 5 on the opposite sides of the insulating body itself.

For purposes of fastening each mechanical coupling element 5, it is preferably provided for the rivets or equivalent mechanical fastening elements 7 to be first fitted onto respective centring stems 10 set on an assembling apparatus. A first mechanical coupling element 5 is then engaged on the rivets 7 in such a way that each of the rivets is inserted in a through hole obtained in the attachment portion 5a of the coupling element itself, bringing its head 7a in contact relationship with the aforesaid attachment portion, as per Figure 6.

Subsequently, on each rivet 7 is fitted the respective tubular spacer 8, in such a way that a strike extremity 8a thereof is positioned in contact against the attachment portion 5a on the side opposite to the head 7a of the rivet 7, as per Figure 6.

The insulating body 4 is then fitted onto the spacer 8 in such a way as to determine its engagement with the rivets 7 and the mechanical coupling element 5. More specifically, in this phase each rivet 7 with the respective spacer 8 are inserted in a through hole provided in the insulating body 4, as per Figure 7.

Alternatively, the spacers 8 can first be inserted through the insulating body 4, then fitted onto the rivets 7 together with the insulating body itself.

As Figure 8 shows, the second coupling element 5 is then engaged on the insulating body 4, causing the insertion of the second extremity 7b of each rivet 7 through the attachment portion 5a of the coupling element itself.

A terminal edge of the second extremity 7b of each rivet 7, opposite to the first coupling element 5 is then folded back, to determine the definitive fastening of the coupling element 5 to the insulating body 4.

This phase can be implemented, for instance, using a cold-forming punch towards an insulating body 4 to determine the plastic deformation of the second extremity 7b of the rivet 7. In this circumstance, the presence of the spacers 8 eliminates the risk that the structure of the insulating body 4 may collapse as an effect of the thrusts transmitted to the mechanical coupling elements 5, with consequent partial sinking thereof into the surface of the insulating body itself.

In a preferential embodiment, however, at least one mill 11 is used, presenting a conical working portion 11a, eccentric with respect to the axis of rotation of the mill itself. The eccentric rotation of the conical working portion 11a determines the terminal portion of the rivet 7 to be bent as a result of the axial approach of the mill 11 towards the rivet itself, as clearly visible in Figures 9 and 10, without transmitting relevant thrust actions on the mechanical coupling elements 5.

Once the mechanical coupling elements 5 are completely made fast to the insulating body 4, the latter is removed from the centring stems 10, proceeding to engage the first and the second block 2, 3 to the insulating body itself.

For this purpose, with reference to the embodiments illustrated in Figures 1, 2 and 4, the insulating body 4 is interposed between the blocks 2, 3 previously positioned one in front of the other, at a greater mutual distance than the distance measurable between the attachment portions 5a of the coupling elements 5 situated to the opposite sides of the insulating body 4. The blocks 2, 3 are then forcibly approached to the insulating body 4, determining the snapping engagement of the lateral tabs 5b into the respective coupling seats 6. In this phase as well, the presence of the spacers 8 is useful in protecting the insulating body 4 against excessive stresses, eliminating all risks of penetration by the mechanical coupling elements 5 into the surface of the insulating body itself which would compromise the correct engagement of the coupling elements in the respective seats 6.

With reference to the embodiment of Figure 3, the blocks 2, 3 are first positioned one in front of the other at a mutual distance substantially corresponding to the thickness of the insulating body 4, i.e. to the distance measurable between the attachment portions 5a of the coupling elements 5.

The insulating body 4 is then inserted between the blocks 2, 3, determining the sliding engagement of the coupling elements 5 in the respective seats 6.

As is readily apparent from the above description, the engagement of the blocks 2, to the insulating body 4 is preferably effected simultaneously in a single phase, but the possibility of determining the engagement of the individual blocks 3 in successive phases is not excluded.

The present invention attains important advantages.

In particular, the invention brings about considerable improvements in relation to the time required to produce the insulating block assembly. In this regard it should be noted that the subject method does not call for productive phases that require long waiting times for the realisation of the insulating phase. All the phases of the assembly of the insulating block assembly can instead be executed in an extremely simple and fast manner.

In other words, making available an insulating block assembly whose components are made independently from each other and then assembled at a later time by means of extremely simple operations entails considerable advantages in terms of economy and flexibility of the productive cycles, as well as in terms of investment cost for the production facilities.

It is advantageously possible to prepare different types of insulating body 4, for instance of different materials and/or thickness, already provided with the respective coupling elements. The capability is thereby achieved of replacing in a nearly immediate manner the type of insulating body to be used to realise different enbloc types, in order to meet even requirements for the delivery of small batches.

It should further be noted that the invention allows to provide an aeration gap inside the insulating block assembly which could not be achieved in the prior art, where the insulating layer was formed directly by filling the space defined between the blocks positioned one in front of the other.
