Description

Wall panel unit and wall structure manufactured thereby {A WALL PANEL UNIT AND A WALL STRUCTURE PRODUCED THEREWITH}

The present invention relates to a wall panel unit of fireproof material according to the preamble of claim 1, the unit comprising two rectangular plate-shaped wall panel elements, the long side of which is made of the edge of the wall panel element. The edge folds are provided and configured to be attached to each other using the edge folds, thereby forming a closed wall structure of two sides. The invention also relates to a wall structure according to the preamble of claim 11 using the wall panel structure.

Finland patent application FI 20055614, corresponding to international patent application PCT / FI2006 / 050455, discloses a known wall panel unit. According to this technique, it is disclosed that the long side side thereof comprises an edge fold portion, and by the edge fold portion, adjacent wall panel units are provided as a wall structure with respect to each other. Since multiple edge folds can be superimposed, this technique allows the insulation of the panel structure to be installed to be as rigid as possible. This technique is particularly relevant in the cabin of ships and other marine means of transport, since in adjacent cabin units, the rear part of the panel unit is open and one can be arranged opposite the other. This is because the material is saved and the weight of the structure can be reduced. This structure can also be used on the side of the cabin corridor when the walls of the cabin corridor are made separately.

This cabin structure has desirable locations while being usable for the cassette-side wall panel structure on the two sides and the wall structure assembled therefrom. Known two-sided wall structures are disclosed in US 3596424. The technique likewise uses edge folds to produce a cassette-shaped closed structure. However, it is difficult to assemble this structure, where the wall panel elements of the wall panel unit have to be placed inside one another in the direction of the longitudinal side, and adjacent panel units are also placed inside one another by their edges. It is installed in the longitudinal direction. Thereby the assembly of the walls had to be done horizontally.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved form of a versatile two-sided wall panel unit that is particularly suitable for various applications in ships and other waterborne installations, such as configurations suitable for use between sanitary and other installations, and prior art. The disadvantage of the present invention is to provide a wall structure manufactured by the wall panel unit removed. It is also an object of the present invention to provide a wall structure unit and a wall structure, which are simple, thin and light, easy to install and excellent in manufacturing characteristics. Such a wall structure must satisfy the current fire safety requirements.

The object of the invention can be achieved as described in claim 1 and in accordance with the more detailed description in the other claims.

According to the invention, the edge folds of the opposing wall panel structures comprise guides and supports perpendicular to the surface of the wall panel elements arranged to cooperate with each other, whereby the wall panel elements are perpendicular to the surface of the wall panel elements. It can be installed on each other, it can be kept in contact with each other without a separate fixing means. The production and assembly of such elements is easy, with all the edge folds required for installation and mutual support forming an integral part of the actual wall panel element, whereby the elements can be installed by directly interlocking with each other and with separate fastening means This is not necessary.

By designing the edge fold to include overlapping portions in the direction of the wall panel element, a structure with good fire resistance and a rigid and robust structure can be produced.

The above guide and support portions are preferably arranged such that corresponding portions of one wall panel element are at least partially located between corresponding portions of at least another wall panel element. Thus, the wall panel element remains assembled and can be easily transported and installed to the installation site.

The above-mentioned vertical guides and supports may be provided with a plurality of alignment grooves located within a certain distance from each other to provide mutual alignment of the wall panel elements in the direction of the long side of the wall panel unit. This helps the assembly of the wall panel unit and supports the fixing of the elements to each other.

In practice, it is sufficient to arrange the edge folds of the second wall panel unit to define the total depth of the wall panel unit.

In a practical way, the above-mentioned edge fold is additionally designed to comprise a protrusion at one edge and a groove at the opposite edge. Since the protrusions and the grooves are designed to have dimensions and values corresponding to each other, adjacent wall panel units may be installed to overlap each other through the protrusions and the grooves in the surface direction of the wall panel unit. In this way, the same edge folds can be used to mutually secure individual elements of the wall panel unit and to install adjacent wall panel units as one rigid wall structure.

When the present invention is to form a completely closed structure, a fold is provided on the short side of the wall panel element, whereby the ends of the wall panel unit can be closed, while in the direction of the surface of the wall panel element By defining an extending piece, the wall panel units can be fixed to the supporting structure of the place of installation thereof.

The wall panel unit is made of steel plate less than 10mm thick and when PVC coated on one side, excellent fire resistance, usability and appearance are made. Preferably the thickness of the wall panel unit is at most 50 mm in the direction normal to the wall panel unit. By arranging refractory materials such as asbestos or glass wool between the wall panel elements, the fire resistance characteristics can be enhanced. The element made of refractory material is preferably installed on the other side, i.e., inside the fold of the inner wall panel unit before the wall panel element is installed, so as to contact the other wall panel element to form a compact wall panel unit. .

The invention also relates to a wall structure made of a refractory material comprising at least two of the above-mentioned square plate-shaped wall panel units arranged to be attached to each other via an edge fold of the longitudinal side of the wall panel unit. In this case, the edge folds are arranged so that they can be installed into each other in the direction of the short side of the wall panel unit, so that once installed, they are partially overlapped with each other and on the surface of the wall structure without a separate fixing means. It is locked in the vertical direction. The edge folds described above are designed and sized in the surface direction of the wall structure such that the adjacent wall panel structure forms a rigid wall structure on one side. This creates a wall structure that can be clad on both sides and can be installed easily and quickly.

The guide and support surfaces of the rim folds which cooperate with each other preferably comprise parts of both wall panel elements of both wall panel units. This produces a structure that is sufficiently rigid and robust.

In the following, the invention is described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
