Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the device belongs]

 The present invention relates to a construction material formed by using waste cans of beverages such as beer cans and juice cans.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Recently, beverages such as beer cans and juice cans are light in weight, unlike bottles, and can be sold using an automatic vending machine, for example, so they are used in large quantities. However, as the amount of consumption increases, in order to recover the waste canister and regenerate metal such as aluminum, there is a problem in that it is bulky in transportation as it is, so it is compressed and recovered. .

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, waste cans that are not individually compressed are collected on a given collection date, then compressed into packaging sizes, transported to a recycling plant to melt, remove metal, and make beverage cans again. However, there is a problem that it is unexpectedly expensive to collect it because a large amount of it is in its original form.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention has devised an effective use form of a waste can by focusing on such a point. That is, in the present invention, the can, which is made quite thin to reduce the weight, is easily compressed in the horizontal direction, but the compression resistance is strong in the vertical direction. , Found that natural fiber nets or plastic nets can be used for building materials. That is, the waste cans for beverages are arranged in the vertical direction and covered by a net made of metal nets, natural fiber nets or plastic nets, or a combination of vertical and horizontal nets is built up by wire nets. It is used as a material, and this empty can may be filled with gravel or cement as needed. Cement or a curable resin may be applied and cured on the outer side thereof.

[Embodiment of device]

 FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 shows a mesh of beverage waste cans 1 of uniform size, which are arranged in a row and have a mesh-like mesh, such as a metal mesh, a natural fiber mesh or a plastic mesh. 2 is a construction material having a structure that is included in Fig. 2. Fig. 2 shows a mesh of beverage waste cans 1 of uniform size arranged in two stages and having a grid-like mesh such as a metal mesh, a natural fiber mesh or a plastic mesh. 2 is a construction material having a structure that is included in Fig. 2. In Fig. 3, two types of waste canisters for drinking 1 are arranged in the vertical direction, the larger ones in the vertical direction and the smaller ones in the horizontal direction to form a grid-like mesh. It is a construction material that has a structure that is covered by a mesh 2 such as a metal mesh, a natural fiber mesh or a plastic mesh, and FIG. 4 shows a width of the diagonal mesh weave tape-shaped metal mesh, natural fiber mesh, plastic mesh, or the like 2. It is a construction material with a structure that includes only directions That. Although not shown, in the case of a metal net, the shape is usually retained by simply bending it, but it may be fastened with a fastener, and in the case of a material other than metal, it may be glued or fused. The shape can be retained by fixing with a tool. In an extreme case, a diagonally woven tape-shaped net as shown in Fig. 4 is rolled into a square or oval of a certain size, and its ends are joined together to form a ring. Insert a plurality of cans that fit this size (preferably a slightly larger one) to cause deformation so that the mesh of the mesh structure extends in the pulling direction (annular direction of the ring) and narrows in width. With this, the can can be fixed relatively easily and firmly, which is preferable because the manufacturing cost is low.

In the above, each shape has a strong resistance to compression in the vertical direction, and for example, it is arranged at the front end or the edge of the flowerbed, and the periphery and the upper surface are covered with cement to ensure a clean and strong structure. The construction was done. A hole was dug at the edge of the flower bed, and it was placed there, and the cement material was kneaded with water to cover it while filling it between the net and the can. Then, the soil was backfilled, but the can was not dented. . Also, it does not matter that the cement material is slightly inside the can. Similarly, at the entrance and exit of the entrance, this building material is placed in a predetermined position, and the cement material mixed with water is kneaded by adding water around it and between the cans and the net and the net, and finally the top surface. With a particularly careful make-up cement coating, the appearance was good, and there was no abnormality even when the family went in and out and brought in furniture. It should be noted that when the construction material of the present invention using empty cans was used, the consumption of cement was much less than that of the conventional method, and the construction period was shortened and the construction cost was significantly reduced.

In carrying out the present invention, for example, when using an empty can of beer or the like, it is possible to assemble the canister patterns into a harmonious structure as a whole and to integrate them with a net. In addition, when they are covered with transparent plastic to cure them, they can be used as an interior material having a good sense of wall. As the plastic used here, in addition to polyester, epoxy resin, phenol resin, hardener-containing polyethylene and the like can be applied. In addition, although the net material is not limited, the metal net can be easily formed by folding, and the net of the natural fiber or the plastic fiber can have its edges bonded or fused or fastened with a metal fitting. Although metal nets are usually corrosive, some can be used for a certain period of time, while natural fibers, polyester, nylon, vinyl chloride, etc. can be colored arbitrarily, so that they can be aesthetically pleasing. In addition to the woven fiber, a reticulated extruded product, a monofilament woven reticulated product, or a reticulated extruded reticulated product is used. Unlike a metal, these non-metallic nets are also corrosion resistant, and a bag-shaped one, a band-shaped one, or a tape-shaped one may be used. In the case of a band-shaped or tape-shaped structure, if the mesh is diagonally woven, the length can be changed by changing the width to some extent, so the installation is easy.

[Effect of device]

 According to the present invention, since various empty cans for beverages can be used as building materials without being crushed, the cost is extremely low compared to the total cost for recycling empty cans up to now, and exterior materials and basic materials. In this case, it is effective in reducing the consumption of cement, and when used together with a resin, various effects such as an interior material can be achieved.
