Definitions
- the present invention concerns a method for the erection of buildings, in particular of the type which consists in the formation of prefabricated elements and the subsequent assembly of these elements.
- the invention also concerns an installation which can be used hereby and which is meant to manufacture the prefabricated elements.
- the present invention concerns a technique for the erection of buildings with prefabricated elements, whereby a stone construction is provided on the one hand, but whereby the above-mentioned disadvantages of concrete walls are excluded on the other hand.
- the invention concerns a method for the erection of buildings, consisting in the formation of prefabricated elements and the subsequent assembly of these elements, characterized in that the prefabricated elements are made of brickwork. This implies that the walls are first built in bricks and are subsequently used, after they have dried, to assemble a building.
- the prefabricated elements are made of a concrete supporting beam and a mortar wall built on it.
- the supporting beam offers the advantage that the prefabricated elements can be transported without any risk of cracks being formed in the brickwork.
- the brickwork of the prefabricated elements is made such that the crosscut ends thereof make it possible for several of such elements to be fit together in bond. This has for an advantage that the different elements can be linked very firmly, as a result of which the risk of future cracks is practically excluded.
- the brickwork is preferably made by alternately putting horizontal rows of bricks and edge joints on top of one another and by stopping the vertical joints only afterwards. This technique offers the advantage that the walls can be run up in a relatively short time.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention concerns a method for the erection of buildings, in particular of the type which consists in the formation of prefabricated elements and the subsequent assembly of these elements.
- The invention also concerns an installation which can be used hereby and which is meant to manufacture the prefabricated elements.
- It is known that use can be made of concrete walls for the construction of buildings with prefabricated elements. Such concrete walls are advantageous in that they can be easily made. A major disadvantage, however, consists in that such walls are little porous, as a result of which they cannot breath so to say and as a result of which the buildings erected with them show several disadvantages regarding the release of moisture through the walls and condensation.
- Also, the present invention concerns a technique for the erection of buildings with prefabricated elements, whereby a stone construction is provided on the one hand, but whereby the above-mentioned disadvantages of concrete walls are excluded on the other hand.
- To this end, the invention concerns a method for the erection of buildings, consisting in the formation of prefabricated elements and the subsequent assembly of these elements, characterized in that the prefabricated elements are made of brickwork. This implies that the walls are first built in bricks and are subsequently used, after they have dried, to assemble a building.
- Preferably, the prefabricated elements are made of a concrete supporting beam and a mortar wall built on it. The supporting beam offers the advantage that the prefabricated elements can be transported without any risk of cracks being formed in the brickwork.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the brickwork of the prefabricated elements is made such that the crosscut ends thereof make it possible for several of such elements to be fit together in bond. This has for an advantage that the different elements can be linked very firmly, as a result of which the risk of future cracks is practically excluded.
- During the manufacturing of the above-mentioned elements, the brickwork is preferably made by alternately putting horizontal rows of bricks and edge joints on top of one another and by stopping the vertical joints only afterwards. This technique offers the advantage that the walls can be run up in a relatively short time.
- The stopping at a later stage can take place either after all the bricks of the prefabricated element have been laid, or each time after one row has been laid. In the latter case, the vertical joints should be preferably stopped while the next edge joint is being applied.
- According to yet another important characteristic of the invention the manufacture is done semi-automatically, and this such that the bricklaying is done manually, but the supply of mortar and the setting in height of the building unit are done in a mechanical and/or automatic way. This offers the advantage that the use of expensive, fully automatic devices is excluded on the one hand, whereas a good production level can be obtained on the other hand.
- The above-mentioned installation according to the invention consists at least in a device for the building of the elements which is at least formed of support means upon which a prefabricated element can be manufactured, a building unit for bricklaying, means which can provide for a mutual movement between the support means and the building unit at least in the height, and means which allow for a longitudinal movement along the element to be fabricated.
- Further, the installation is preferably also provided with means which allow for the supply of bricks to any place along the element to be fabricated.
- The building unit preferably consists of a work platform upon which one or several bricklayers can take place.
- The means which allow for a longitudinal movement along the element to be fabricated can be of different types. They preferably consist of a trolley upon which a work platform of limited size is mounted. According to a variant, however, they may also consist of a work platform which is continuously provided over the entire length of the device concerned.
- In order to better explain the characteristics according to the invention, the following preferred embodiments are described as an example only without being limitative in any way, with reference to the accompanying drawings, where:

- figure 5 shows a view to a larger scale of the part which is indicated in figure 4 with F5;
- figure 6 shows a cross section according to line VI-VI in figure 5;
- figure 7 is a schematic representation of yet another installation according to the invention;
- figures 8, 9 and 10 show cross sections according to lines VIII-VIII, IX-IX and X-X in figure 7;
- figure 11 shows a mortar supply element which can be used in an installation according to the invention;
- figure 12 shows a cross section according to line XII-XII in figure 11.
- As shown in figure 1, the invention concerns a method for the erection of buildings which consists in that
prefabricated elements 1 made of brickwork are used. - As is further shown in figure 1, these
elements 1 preferably consist of aconcrete supporting beam 2 and amortar wall 3 built on it. The requiredopenings 4 for windows and/or doors may already be provided in thewall 3, whereby the brickwork above theseopenings 4 can be supported by means ofbeams 5 provided above theseopenings 4. - In the
elements 1, which are mainly meant to form bearing walls and inner walls,grooves 6 may already be provided during the manufacturing for the application of installation elements, such as electric wiring. - The
elements 1 are preferably placed onconcrete foundation beams 7. The placing is done by means of the necessary lift and transport means 8. - According to the invention, use is preferably made of
elements 1 whose crosscut ends 9 allow for a linking in bond. - Figures 2 and 3 show an
installation 10 for the manufacturing of saidelements 1. According to the invention, thisinstallation 10 contains at least onedevice 11 for building the above-mentionedwalls 3. In the example given in figure 2, there are two of them. It is obvious that more of thesedevices 11 can be provided. - As shown in figures 4, 5 and 6,
such device 11 consists at least of support means 12 to support theelement 1 to be made, abuilding unit 13 from where the brickwork is supplied, means 14 which make it possible to move the support means 12 and thebuilding unit 13 in height in relation to one another and means which allow for a longitudinal movement along the element to be fabricated. - In the embodiment shown, the support means 12 can be moved in height, whereas the
building unit 13 is situated at a given height. - The support means 12 in this case mainly consist of a
horizontal lifting beam 15 which can be moved up and down by means of a drive 18 with the help ofsupports 17 which move vertically up and down alongprofiles 16. As shown in the figures 5 and 6, the drive 18 may consist oflifting cables 19 which are fixed to thesupports 17 and which can be moved via a number ofbending wheels 20 by means of ahydraulic cylinder 21. As a result of the moving in and out of the piston of thecylinder 21, thelifting beam 15 can be moved up and down. The drive 18 is preferably also provided with adjusting and control means which allow for a shift in steps of thelifting beam 15, each time over the height of a row of brickwork, in other words the height of abrick 22 increased with the thickness of anedge joint 23. The adjusting and control means in the example shown in figure 5 consist of ahydraulic control 24 which operates thecylinder 21 each time a shift is required, whereby the right shift is provided for by means of asensor 25 which works in conjunction withreference marks 26 which are provided for example on thepiston rod 27 of the above-mentionedcylinder 21. - The above-mentioned
building unit 13 in the example shown mainly consists of awork platform 28. - The
device 11 also has means which allow for a longitudinal movement between thebuilding unit 13 and anelement 1 under construction. According to figures 4, 5 and 6, thework platform 28 is provided to this end on atrolley 29 which preferably has adrive 30. - The
trolley 29 has aframe 31 which can be rolled overprofiles 32. Thedrive 30 makes use ofcables 33 which are fixed at their ends and which can be rolled up onreels 35 on thetrolley 29 by means of anelectrical motor 34, rolled off respectively. - A
loading platform 36 forbricks 22 and such like which is adjustable in height may be provided on thetrolley 29, which can be moved by any sort of driving means 37 whatsoever. Preferably, these driving means 37 consist ofshears 38 between theframe 31 and theloading platform 36 which can be opened and closed by means of anelectrical motor 39, for example through the agency of alifting screw 40 which acts on one of the arms of the shears. - Further, the
device 11 may also be provided with semi-automatic or automaticmortar supply elements 41. As represented in the figures 4, 5 and 6, such a mortar supply element preferably consists of amortar tray 43 which can be moved along alongitudinal profile 42 with anoutput 44 which can be moved to and fro over alifting beam 15. The drive is carried out by means ofcables 45 and anelectrical motor 46. Themortar tray 43 may be put under pressure so as to press the mortar out of it. - Preferably, the
longitudinal profile 42 can be slightly moved according to the cross direction of thedevice 11, for example by means of drive means 47, such as one or several hydraulic cylinders. This makes it possible for the place where themortar 48 is deposited to be set as a function of the width of thewall 3 to be constructed and as a function of the place where the supportingbeam 2 is situated on thelifting beam 15. - At the
output 44, a cut-off and/orbatch mechanism 49 is provided which makes it at least possible to cut off theoutlet 44, but which can possibly also provide for the required dosing of themortar 48. - It is clear that in those places where
openings 4 are to be provided, meant for windows and doors, nomortar 48 may be deposited. In order to deposit mortar in the right places, use can be made of a measuringrod 50 upon which the places of the window and door openings are indicated. The cut-off and/orbatch mechanism 49 is preferably equipped with the necessary sensors which work in conjunction with the above-mentioned reference marks, as well as with a pneumatic drive or such like, such that the mortar supply is interrupted at the height of the above-mentionedopenings 4. The interruption of the mortar supply can also be coupled to the height up to where theelement 1 concerned has already been built, which can be done automatically. - Naturally, the above-mentioned reference marks on the measuring
rod 50 also serve as a reference for the bricklayers, so that they know where to provide a window or door opening, and as an indication of the beginning and end of the wall. - Apart from the measuring
rod 50, also ajointing rule 51, for example an L-shaped iron, can be provided which, as represented in figure 6, makes it possible to place thebricks 22 neatly in line and to always press them in themortar 48 up to the same depth. It is clear that thisjointing rule 51 can be adjusted, for example because it is mounted on aframe 52 which can be moved horizontally. - On any or both of the longitudinal ends of the
device 11 can be provided amoveable lifting device 53 to place batches ofbricks 54 directly or indirectly on thework platform 28, and more in particular on theloading platform 36.Supports 55 are hereby preferably provided to the ends of thedevice 11 to put thebatches 54 on in the meantime, whereby thesesupports 55 are situated at such a height that thetrolley 29, with anempty loading platform 36, can be rolled under the waitingbatch 54, all this such that thebatch 54 concerned can be loaded by moving up theloading platform 36. - In the case where the
building unit 13 is situated at a fixed height and theelement 1 can be moved in height, the height of thebuilding unit 13 is selected such that thelifting beam 15 practically touches the ground level at the time when the last row ofbricks 22 is being laid. - The
device 11 is preferably provided withsupports 56 upon which the constructedelements 1, while they are still standing on thelifting beam 15 concerned, can be put down and can be rolled away in vertical position as of there. These supports 56 preferably consist of rollers or such like. - As can be seen in figure 6, the
device 11 can be made two-sided, in other words, anelement 1 can be built on either side of onesingle work platform 28. - According to the invention, the
device 11 is preferably part of abigger installation 10. As represented in figure 2, thisinstallation 10 may consist of a concrete line 57 where supportingbeams 2 and possibly also the foundation beams 7 are made, and amasonry line 58 which contains among others the above-mentioneddevices 11. - The concrete line 57 can be divided in different zones, such as a
zone 59 for the providing ofshutterings 60, azone 61 for the preparation of theconcrete shutterings 60 such as the application therein of reinforcingsteel 62, azone 63 for the preparation and application of the concrete filling 64 and azone 65 for the drying of the concrete and the dismantling of theconcrete shutterings 60. - The
masonry line 58 preferably has azone 66 to place the supportingbeams 2 on the lifting beams 15 or possibly on other guides, azone 67 in which one or several of thedevices 11 are provided, a zone 68 in which the vertical joints are stopped and azone 70 in which the above-mentionedgrooves 6 are made in thewalls 3. Apart from this, themasonry line 58 may also include twomore zones zones 68 and 70 respectively and in which the constructedelements 1, and in particular the brickwork, can already partly dry. - The concrete line 57 and the
masonry line 58 are situated next to one another. The zones of the concrete line 57 and themasonry line 58 preferably follow in the opposite sense, such that at the end of the concrete line 57, the beginning of themasonry line 58 starts. - Further, the
installation 10 may also have azone 73 for the storage of reinforcediron 62, azone 74 for the stacking ofbricks 22, azone 75 for the preparation of theelements 1 for transport, azone 76 for the loading of theelements 1 and azone 77 for the loading of the foundation beams 7. - The whole is preferably accommodated in five
halls 78 to 82, one and other as represented in figures 2 and 3. - As represented in figure 3, at least one
rolling platform 83 which can be adjusted in height is provided in the zone 68 from where thevertical joints 69 are filled with mortar under pressure, for example by means of a gun or such. - In the
zone 70 there is amilling machine 84. - The
halls bridges beams finished elements 1. The longitudinal movement through the different zones is done by means of rolling bridges which consist ofseveral supports 56 as mentioned above. - The working of the
installation 10 and thedevice 1 can be easily derived from the accompanying drawings and the above-mentioned description. - In the concrete line 57, the
beams zone 65 so as to dry. The foundation beams 7 can be loaded directly in thezone 77 by the rollingbridge 85. This rollingbridge 85 also makes it possible to place the supportingbeams 2 on the lifting beams 15. - The lifting beams 15 are rolled in the
devices 11 concerned. As shown in figure 6, the lifting beams 15 are then raised to the top, after which the bricklaying can start. Each time one row ofbricks 22 has been laid, thelifting beam 15 concerned, after a layer of mortar has been put on it, is lowered over the height of one layer of bricks until theelement 1 concerned is finished. - The formed
elements 1 are then moved through thezones 68 and 70 in which thevertical joints 69 are stopped and thegrooves 6 are milled out, either manually, semi-automatically or fully automatically. - Afterwards, the
elements 1 can be loaded for transport by means of theroller bridge 86. - In order to simplify the positioning of the
beams 5, thetrolley 29 can be provided with alifting system 87. This trolley can also be equipped with acontrol panel 88 to control thedevice 11, for example to operate the mortar trays, to set the speed of the trolley, etc. - It is clear that two or several trolleys may be present on one and the same track.
- In the case where the support means 12 cannot be adjusted in height, but the
building unit 13 can, themortar supply elements 41 should also be adjustable in height. - According to a variant which is not represented, the
devices 11 can be equipped withmortar supply elements 41 which are provided with means to form an insulating mortar, such as for example an apparatus which adds insulating particles such as plastic balls and/or gas bubble producers to the mortar at the time when the mortar leaves themortar supply elements 41. - The
elements 1 are picked up for transport by means ofstraps 89, made for example of nylon. By tightening thestraps 89 well, thewalls 3 are loaded under pressure, which is better for the transport. - It is clear that the invention is by no means limited to the above-described embodiment. Thus, the means for the supply of
bricks 22 should not necessarily have the same shape as represented in figures 4 to 6. - Also, figures 7 to 10 show a variant of an
installation 10. Thisinstallation 10 containsseveral devices 11 situated next to one another. It is special in that it contains means for the supply ofbricks 22 which mainly consist of acentral supply mechanism 90 which extends diagonally under the places where the above-mentionedelements 1 are built; lifting means 91 and transport means provided on both ends of thedevices 11, which will be described below, which make it possible to supply thebricks 22 from thecentral supply mechanism 90 to the lifting means 91 and from the lifting means 91, in their raised position, to thebuilding unit 13. - The supply of the
bricks 22 and possibly other building materials is preferably carried out via acellar 92. - The
central supply mechanism 90 preferably consists of atrolley 93, which can be rolled over arailway 94 and which is suited to transport a batch ofbricks 54 which is placed on apallet 95. - The above-mentioned lifting means 91 consist of lifts which are situated at each of the far ends of each of the
devices 11. - The transport means which make it possible to supply the
bricks 22 from thecentral supply mechanism 90 to the lifting means 91 consist of lengthwise extending roller tracks 96, or endless conveyor belts or such like. Also thetrolley 93 and thefloors 97 of the above-mentioned lifts can be provided withroller tracks bricks 54 from thetrolley 93 to the roller tracks 96 on the one hand, and to be able to roll batches ofbricks 54 from the roller tracks 96 into the lift concerned on the other hand. - In this case, the
trolley 29 has noloading platform 36 which can be adjusted in height. In this case, two loading platforms are provided which each consist of roller tracks 100 and 101 or such like, such that a batch ofbricks 54 supplied by means of lifting means 91, either on the one end of thedevice 11 concerned or on the other end, can be rolled from said lifting means 91 onto the loading platform of thetrolley 29. - As represented in figure 7, the
installation 10 is provided with conveyor means forempty pallets 95. These consist ofplatforms central supply mechanism 90 respectively. Theseplatforms empty pallets 95. - Further, the
installation 10 may also be equipped with supply means 105 for accessories, such asbeams 5 which are designed to be placed above window and/ordoor openings 4. These supply means 105 consist of aplatform 106 which can be rolled crosswise, which can move over trails 108 via rollers 107, whereby saidplatform 106 can also be moved upward to beneath thebuilding unit 13. To this end, lifting means 109 are provided which can lift theplatform 106 or part of it in the height, for example up to the position which is represented by means of dashed lines in figure 7. Thebeams 5 can be further raised by means of alifting mechanism 111 which can be rolled over aguide 110 and be put in their place. - As represented in figure 10, every
device 11 is provided with amortar tray 43 which can be rolled along acircular guide 112, consisting of tworails same mortar tray 43 can cooperate with twoelements 1 to be built, on either side respectively of thedevice 11 concerned. - Apart from that, the
devices 11 which are represented in figures 7 to 10 have an almost analogous design as thedevice 11 from figures 4 to 6. - The working of the
installation 10 which is represented in figures 7 to 10 can be easily derived from these figures. Via therailway 94, batches ofbricks 54 are supplied. Ifbricks 22 need to be supplied to aparticular device 11, thetrolley 93 is rolled under thedevice 11 concerned with a batch ofbricks 54. Subsequently, this batch ofbricks 54 is supplied from thetrolley 93 over theroller track 96 concerned to the lifting means 91. The lifting means 91 brings the batch ofbricks 54 up to the height of thebuilding unit 13. Thetrolley 29 concerned is then driven to the end of thedevice 11, where the batch ofbricks 54 is raised, after which said batch ofbricks 54 can be rolled on saidtrolley 29. - The bricklayer puts the
empty pallet 95 on the above-mentionedplatform 102. The lifting means 91 goes down again and thepallet 95 is rolled over theplatform 103 up to the platform 104 of thetrolley 93, from where it is led down further. - It is clear that the movement of a batch of
bricks 54 and of anempty pallet 95 can be done fully automatically, whereby the necessary drive means and control means are provided. For clarity's sake, these are not represented in the figures. - Figures 11 and 12 represent another embodiment of a
mortar supply element 41. - It is special in that this
mortar supply element 41 is provided with a stoppingmechanism 115 for stopping thevertical joints 69. This consists ofnozzles vertical joints 69 on either side. Themortar supply element 41 may hereby be provided with drive means 118 which drive themortar tray 43, as well as drive means 119 which move the stoppingmechanism 115 according to an intermittent movement with regard to themortar tray 43, such that the stoppingmechanism 115 remains at the height of each vertical joint 69 for a certain time, whereas themortar tray 43 moves permanently. Thus is avoided that themortar tray 43, which has a large inertia, needs to be accelerated up and decelerated. - As represented in figure 12, at least one, and preferably two worm-shaped
elements 120 which are driven in a rotating manner are provided at the bottom of themortar tray 43 in order to mix the mortar and press it out of themortar tray 43, on the one hand via agroove 121 so as to form an edge joint 23, and on the other hand viapipes 122 to thenozzles elements 120 in the example shown each consist of a mixingpart 123 and apart 124 which is formed of an Archimedean screw. The drive is carried out by means of amotor 125. - Further, the device may be provided with
means 126 for the supply of additives to the mortar, such as hardening accelerator, a means for the formation of gas bubbles, insulation means, and such like. - The present invention is by no means limited to the embodiments described by way of example and shown in the accompanying drawings; on the contrary, such a method for the erection of buildings, the above-mentioned installation and the bricklaying device used hereby, can be made according to various variants while still remaining within the scope of the invention as defined in the following claims.
