Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building materials, and in particular to a novel aerated concrete block. Background Technology

[0002] Aerated concrete blocks are a new type of building material that is lightweight, porous, has good thermal insulation, fire resistance, can be nailed, sawed, and planed, and possesses a certain degree of earthquake resistance. When constructing aerated concrete blocks, it is essential to ensure that the mortar joints of the infill walls are ≥80% full, as required by construction specifications, especially for exterior walls. This is to prevent wall leakage caused by insufficient mortar, false joints, or transparent joints. Therefore, during masonry construction, it is crucial to ensure that both horizontal and vertical mortar joints are fully filled with mortar.

[0003] Traditional masonry blocks are typically rectangular in shape. During construction, a certain thickness of mortar is usually laid on top of the existing masonry. However, because mortar tends to fall off vertically, there is often a problem of insufficient mortar coverage in the vertical direction. Secondly, the surface of traditional masonry blocks is usually horizontal, making it difficult to ensure the correct mortar thickness. Laying too little mortar can result in insufficient coverage, while laying too much can cause excess mortar to be squeezed out during construction, leading to mortar waste.

[0004] Based on this, this application provides a novel aerated concrete block that facilitates the laying of vertical mortar joints and reduces mortar waste to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present invention provides a new type of aerated concrete block that facilitates the laying of vertical mortar joints and reduces mortar waste.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0007] A novel aerated concrete block is provided, wherein the left and right ends of the block are inclined surfaces that slope to the same side, so that the block forms a parallelogram block. The top of the block and the surface at the end with an obtuse angle to the top are respectively provided with a first groove and a second groove for spreading mortar, and the first groove and the second groove are connected. The bottom of the block and the surface at the end with an acute angle to the top are respectively provided with a first protrusion and a second protrusion that match the first groove and the second groove.

[0008] In some alternative embodiments, multiple third grooves are formed on both the first and second protrusions.

[0009] In some alternative implementations, the depth of the first groove and the second groove is greater than the width of the mortar joint.

[0010] In some optional embodiments, the block has at least one vertical through hole, and the top periphery of the vertical through hole has a rim flush with the upper surface of the block; the bottom of the block has a rim groove matching the rim at each of the vertical through holes.

[0011] In some alternative implementations, the vertical through hole is a rectangular hole or a circular hole.

[0012] In some alternative embodiments, a first side block and a second side block are also included, both of which are right-angled trapezoidal structures, and the top and inclined surfaces of both are respectively provided with a first groove, a second groove, or a second protrusion.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention features parallel bevels at both ends of the block, facilitating mortar application and reducing the risk of mortar falling off. The block has a first groove and a second groove at its top and an end at an obtuse angle to the top, respectively. Mortar is spread within these grooves, and the depth of the grooves is slightly greater than the width of the mortar joint. Filling the grooves is sufficient to meet the masonry requirements (when the block is laid to meet the mortar joint requirements, a small amount of excess mortar is squeezed out from both sides). This design effectively controls the amount of mortar used in each block and reduces mortar waste. Attached Figure Description

[0030] Example 1

[0031] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a novel aerated concrete block 1. The left and right ends of the block 1 are designed with inclined surfaces 1.1 tilted to the same side, and the inclined surfaces at both ends are parallel to each other, forming a parallelogram block. This design facilitates mortar spreading and solves the problem of mortar falling off the vertical surface of traditional blocks, resulting in insufficient mortar coverage after construction. In this embodiment, the preferred inclination angle of the inclined surfaces at both ends of the block is 30° to 45°.

[0032] Preferably, in this embodiment, the top of the block 1 and the surface at the end forming an obtuse angle with the top are respectively provided with a first groove 1.2 and a second groove 1.3 for spreading mortar, and the first groove 1.2 and the second groove 1.3 are connected. In this embodiment, the depth of the first groove 1.2 and the second groove 1.3 is slightly greater than the width t of the mortar joint (as shown in the attached figure). Figure 7 (As shown), the specific depth should be adjusted according to the actual situation, and should meet the following requirements: after the first and second grooves are filled with mortar, when the block meets the mortar joint width, the excess mortar in the first and second grooves should be squeezed out from both sides and fill the mortar joint, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 7 As shown, excess mortar is scraped off. This design can effectively control the amount of mortar used, reducing mortar waste. Correspondingly, the bottom and the surface of the block 1 in this embodiment, which forms an acute angle with the top, are respectively provided with a first protrusion 1.4 and a second protrusion 1.5 that match the first groove 1.2 and the second groove 1.3. After construction, adjacent blocks are interlocked, and the cooperation of the protrusions and grooves also plays a positioning role, ensuring the flatness of the wall surface.

[0033] Preferred options are listed below. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, multiple third grooves 1.6 are also provided on the first protrusion 1.4 and the second protrusion 1.5. The setting of the third grooves can increase the contact area with the mortar and increase the bonding reliability of the blocks.

[0034] Since the blocks designed in this embodiment are parallelogram structures, in order to meet the masonry requirements, this embodiment also includes a first-side block 2 and a second-side block 3 with a right-angled trapezoidal structure. (See attached diagram) Figure 3As shown, the top and inclined surface of the first side block 2 are respectively provided with a first groove 1.2 and a second groove 1.3; correspondingly, its bottom is provided with a first protrusion 1.4. (See attached diagram) Figure 4 As shown, the top and the inclined surface of the second side block 3 are respectively provided with a first groove 1.2 and a second protrusion 1.5; correspondingly, the bottom is provided with a first protrusion 1.4.

[0035] During the specific masonry construction, as shown in the attached document... Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 As shown, mortar is spread in the first groove at point A and the second groove at point B of the masonry already constructed. Then, the blocks to be laid are aligned and placed on the masonry. The blocks are gently tapped to ensure the height of the blocks. Then, the joints are scraped to remove a small amount of excess mortar.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] Based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a hollow block, which facilitates wiring within the wall. (See attached...) Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the block 1 in this embodiment has at least one vertical through hole 1.7. The vertical through hole can be a round hole, a rectangular hole, or a through hole of other shapes. (See attached diagram.) Figure 6 As shown, after the masonry is completed, some of the vertical through holes are aligned, forming a channel that facilitates the internal installation of pipes and / or wiring.

[0038] Preferably, in this embodiment, the top periphery of the vertical through hole 1.7 is provided with a perimeter 1.8 flush with the upper surface of the block 1; correspondingly, the bottom of the block 1 is provided with a perimeter groove 1.9 matching the perimeter 1.8 at each of the vertical through holes 1.7. This design is beneficial for mortar spreading and can effectively prevent mortar from entering the through hole during spreading and causing waste.

[0039] In some of the described methods, as shown in the appendix Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 As shown, the first side block 2 and the second side block 3 are also provided with vertical through holes 1.7, a perimeter 1.8, and a perimeter groove 1.9.

[0040] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this utility model specification, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
