Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic tile technology, specifically to a balcony ceramic tile that can drain water quickly. Background Technology

[0002] Tiles are a type of building material made from porcelain clay. They are typically square with a glazed surface and are mainly used to decorate walls and floors. Balcony tiles are floor or wall decoration materials specifically designed for balcony spaces. They combine functionality, durability, and aesthetics to meet the unique environmental needs of balconies. Balcony tiles not only meet basic functional requirements but also add visual interest by using tiles of different colors and shapes, breaking away from the monotony of traditional tiling. However, because the back of the tile is relatively smooth, the contact area between the tile and cement is small during installation, making it prone to falling off and damaging over time. This not only causes economic losses but also poses a risk of objects falling from heights.

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the prior art (Chinese patent application number 202221209562.3, application date 2022-05-18) provides a decorative tile, including a tile body, a filling groove on the back of the tile body, a support block installed on the back of the tile body, a transverse connecting groove on the back of the tile body, and a longitudinal connecting groove on the back of the tile body; a snap-fit ​​groove is provided on one end face of the tile body, a snap-fit ​​block is provided on the other end face of the tile body, and an installation groove is provided on the back of the tile body. A large amount of cement is filled into the inner side of the filling groove of the installation groove, and a large amount of cement is wrapped around the outer side of the support block, snapping the snap-fit ​​block of one tile body into the inner side of the snap-fit ​​groove of another tile body. This increases the contact area between the cement and the tile body, thereby increasing the adhesion of the tile body. Furthermore, multiple tile bodies are interlocked to prevent the tile bodies from falling off and causing economic losses, and also prevents the danger of falling objects from heights.

[0004] Stagnant water contains various impurities and chemicals. Prolonged contact with tiles can cause a chemical reaction with the tile glaze, leading to discoloration and fading, affecting the aesthetics. Efficient drainage can shorten the contact time between stagnant water and tiles, reducing the risk of chemical corrosion and allowing tiles to maintain a good appearance for a long time. However, the aforementioned devices cannot improve the drainage efficiency of tiles during use, which not only causes discoloration and fading, reduces the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of tiles, and shortens their service life, but also damages the waterproof layer of the base layer, shortening the service life of the building. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a balcony tile that can drain water quickly, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, which are that the drainage efficiency of the tile cannot be improved, which not only causes the tile to discolor and fade, but also reduces the tile's wear resistance and corrosion resistance, shortens the tile's service life, and damages the waterproof layer of the base layer, thus shortening the service life of the building.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a balcony tile with rapid drainage, comprising a surface layer, one end of which is fixedly connected to a reinforcing rib on the lower surface of the surface layer, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to a base layer, wherein the reinforcing ribs are evenly distributed on the lower surface of the reinforcing ribs, and drainage grooves are formed inside the surface layer; an elevated drainage layer is provided between the surface layer and the base layer, and the elevated drainage layer includes the reinforcing rib fixed to the lower end of the surface layer, and mortises are formed inside both the surface layer and the base layer; drainage holes are formed inside the surface layer, and the drainage holes are evenly distributed inside the surface layer.

[0007] The above structural design, through the installation of drainage channels and an elevated drainage layer, improves the drainage efficiency of the tiles, allowing water to flow quickly along the drainage channels and preventing prolonged accumulation on the tile surface. Simultaneously, the evenly spaced drainage holes within the surface layer further increase the drainage path and area, enabling water to drain more rapidly and significantly improving the overall drainage efficiency of the tiles. This effectively prevents water accumulation on balconies, reducing safety hazards such as slips and falls caused by water accumulation. Furthermore, the elevated drainage layer not only promotes air circulation, creating a good ventilation environment and reducing dampness and mold, but also further accelerates the drainage of moisture from the surface layer and downwards, preventing moisture accumulation between the surface layer and the base layer, which could damage the base layer, while also improving drainage efficiency.

[0008] Preferably, both the outer side of the surface layer and the outer side of the base layer are fixedly connected with tenons, and the tenons correspond one-to-one with the mortises.

[0009] The above structural design, through the use of tenons and mortises, not only shortens the installation time of each tile and improves the overall construction efficiency, but also makes the entire tile structure more compact and stable, further enhancing the tile's resistance to pressure and impact, and ensuring the reliability of the structure during long-term use.

[0010] Preferably, the lower surface of the surface layer is bonded with a connecting layer by epoxy resin structural adhesive, and the connecting layer is made of glass fiber reinforced concrete.

[0011] The above structural design, by setting a glass fiber reinforced concrete connecting layer, effectively improves the overall strength and load-bearing capacity of the connecting layer, avoids stress concentration, and prevents the surface layer from cracking or being damaged due to excessive local stress, thereby extending the service life of the tiles and ensuring a stable connection between the surface layer and the base layer, thus improving the reliability of the entire tile structure.

[0012] Preferably, the lower surface of the connecting layer is bonded with a breathable layer by polyurethane adhesive, and the breathable layer is made of fiberglass mesh.

[0013] The above structural design, by setting a breathable layer of fiberglass mesh, enables the tiles to work in humid environments and allows excess moisture in the base layer to dissipate through the breathable layer, preventing moisture from accumulating inside the base layer. This effectively prevents problems such as mold growth in the base layer and hollow tiles caused by moisture not being able to escape, helps to keep the base layer dry, and extends the service life of the entire balcony tile structure.

[0014] Preferably, the lower surface of the breathable layer is bonded with a crack-resistant layer by polyurethane hot melt adhesive, and the crack-resistant layer is made of fiberglass mesh.

[0015] The above structural design, by setting a crack-resistant layer of fiberglass mesh, not only avoids stress concentration that could cause cracks in the tiles, but also allows the fiberglass mesh to buffer expansion and contraction, preventing cracks from appearing, thereby maintaining the integrity of the entire balcony tile structure and extending its service life.

[0016] Preferably, a sound insulation layer is bonded to the lower surface of the crack-resistant layer with polyurethane adhesive, and the sound insulation layer is polyester fiber sound-absorbing cotton.

[0017] The above structural design, by setting up a sound insulation layer made of polyester fiber sound-absorbing cotton, allows air to vibrate in these pores when sound enters, generating friction with the fibers and converting sound energy into heat energy, which is then absorbed. This effectively reduces external noise, further reduces sound transmission efficiency, and minimizes the impact of noise on the indoor space.

[0018] Preferably, the surface layer is made of fully polished glazed porcelain tile.

[0019] The above structural design, by setting a surface layer of fully polished glazed porcelain tiles, allows balcony tiles to match different decoration styles, from minimalist modern to European classical, adding a unique decorative effect to the balcony space, enhancing the overall aesthetics, and improving the wear resistance of the tile surface, so that the tiles can still maintain a good appearance and performance after long-term use, extending the service life of the tiles.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: this balcony tile with rapid drainage adopts a novel structural design, the specific details of which are as follows:

[0021] (1) The balcony tile that can drain water quickly improves the drainage efficiency of the tile by setting up an elevated drainage layer and drainage channel, so that water can flow quickly along the drainage channel and avoid accumulating on the tile surface for a long time. At the same time, the elevated drainage layer not only facilitates air circulation and forms a good ventilation environment, but also accelerates the drainage of water from the surface layer and guides it downward, preventing water from accumulating between the surface layer and the base layer and causing damage to the base layer, thus improving the drainage efficiency of the tile.

[0022] Furthermore, the tenons and mortises on the outside of the tile make the entire tile structure more compact and stable, improving the tile's resistance to pressure and impact, and ensuring the reliability of the structure during long-term use.

[0023] (2) The balcony tile that can drain water quickly, by setting a connecting layer of glass fiber reinforced concrete, enables the tile to work in a humid environment and allows excess water vapor in the base layer to dissipate through the breathable layer, preventing water vapor from accumulating inside the base layer, helping to keep the base layer dry and extending the service life of the entire balcony tile structure.

[0024] Furthermore, the glass fiber reinforced concrete bonding layer effectively improves the overall strength and load-bearing capacity of the bonding layer, avoids stress concentration, and prevents the surface layer from cracking or being damaged due to excessive local stress.

[0025] (3) The balcony tiles that can drain water quickly, by setting the surface layer of fully polished glazed porcelain tiles, can match different decoration styles, from simple modern to European classical, adding a unique decorative effect to the balcony space, improving the overall aesthetics, and enhancing the wear resistance of the tile surface, so that the tiles can still maintain a good appearance and performance after long-term use, and extending the service life of the tiles.

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] Example 1: By installing drainage channels 4, elevated drainage layer 12, and drainage holes 7, water accumulation on the balcony is effectively prevented, reducing safety hazards such as slipping caused by water accumulation. Figures 1-4 As shown: It includes a surface layer 1, with one end of a reinforcing rib 2 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the surface layer 1, and the other end of the reinforcing rib 2 fixedly connected to a base layer 3. The reinforcing ribs 2 are evenly distributed on the lower surface of the reinforcing rib 2. At the same time, a drainage groove 4 is provided inside the surface layer 1. An elevated drainage layer 12 is provided between the surface layer 1 and the base layer 3. The elevated drainage layer 12 includes the reinforcing rib 2 fixed to the lower end of the surface layer 1. Both the surface layer 1 and the base layer 3 have mortises 6. Drainage holes 7 are provided inside the surface layer 1 and are evenly distributed inside the surface layer 1.

[0035] The construction workers installed the tiles on the balcony of the house in the order arranged (e.g.) Figure 1 As shown), when water accumulates on the tile surface, a drainage groove 4 is created inside the surface layer 1, providing a dedicated channel for water flow. This allows water to flow quickly along the drainage groove 4, preventing it from accumulating on the tile surface for extended periods (as shown). Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown), this reduces safety hazards such as slipping due to water accumulation. Simultaneously, the elevated drainage layer 12 between the surface layer 1 and the base layer 3 not only facilitates air circulation and creates a good ventilation environment, reducing dampness and mold, but also further accelerates the drainage of moisture from the surface layer 1 and its downward flow (e.g., ...). Figure 4 As shown in the figure, this avoids water accumulation between the surface layer 1 and the base layer 3, which could damage the base layer 3, and also improves drainage efficiency.

[0036] Example 2: In this example, unlike Example 1, the installation time for each tile is shortened by using tenons 5, base layers 3, and mortises 6, improving overall construction efficiency and making the entire tile structure more compact and stable. Figure 5 As shown: both the outer side of the surface layer 1 and the outer side of the base layer 3 are fixedly connected with tenons 5, and the tenons 5 correspond one-to-one with the mortises 6.

[0037] When construction workers install the tiles, they can achieve a quick connection using the tenon 5 and mortise 6 on the outside of the tile (e.g., Figure 5 As shown, this not only makes the entire tile structure more compact and stable, but also improves the tile's resistance to pressure and impact, ensuring the reliability of the structure during long-term use, thereby extending the tile's service life and ensuring a stable connection between the tile and the balcony, thus improving the overall reliability of the tile structure.

[0038] In Example 3, unlike Example 2, the connection layer 8, crack-resistant layer 10, and sound insulation layer 11 are used to prevent stress concentration in the tiles, thus avoiding cracks or damage to the surface layer 1 due to excessive local stress. Figure 5 As shown: The lower surface of surface layer 1 is bonded to a connecting layer 8 by epoxy resin structural adhesive, and the connecting layer 8 is made of glass fiber reinforced concrete. The lower surface of connecting layer 8 is bonded to a breathable layer 9 by polyurethane adhesive, and the breathable layer 9 is made of glass fiber mesh. The lower surface of breathable layer 9 is bonded to a crack-resistant layer 10 by polyurethane hot melt adhesive, and the crack-resistant layer 10 is made of glass fiber mesh. The lower surface of crack-resistant layer 10 is bonded to a sound insulation layer 11 by polyurethane adhesive, and the sound insulation layer 11 is made of polyester fiber sound-absorbing cotton. Surface layer 1 is made of fully polished glazed ceramic tile.

[0039] By setting a glass fiber reinforced concrete connecting layer 8, the overall strength and load-bearing capacity of the connecting layer 8 are effectively improved, stress concentration is avoided, a stable connection between the surface layer 1 and the base layer 3 is ensured, and the reliability of the entire ceramic tile structure is improved (e.g., Figure 6 (As shown), and the breathable layer 9 made of fiberglass mesh allows the tiles to work in humid environments, and allows excess moisture in the base layer 3 to dissipate through the breathable layer 9, preventing moisture accumulation inside the base layer 3. At the same time, the crack-resistant layer 10 made of fiberglass mesh not only prevents stress concentration from causing cracks in the tiles (such as...) Figure 6 As shown), the fiberglass mesh can buffer expansion and contraction, preventing cracks and thus maintaining the integrity of the entire balcony tile structure, extending its service life. The sound insulation layer 11, made of polyester fiber sound-absorbing cotton, effectively reduces external noise, further reducing sound transmission efficiency and minimizing the impact of noise on the indoor space (e.g., ...). Figure 6As shown), the surface layer 1 of the fully polished glazed porcelain tile material allows the balcony tiles to match different decoration styles, from minimalist modern to European classical, adding a unique decorative effect to the balcony space, enhancing the overall aesthetics, and increasing the wear resistance of the tile surface.

[0040] The above is the entire working process of the device, and all contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.
