Description

[0001] The invention relates to a wall structure for a mobile house, preferably for a mobile forest kindergarten or a mobile hunting lodge, with the features of claim 1, and to a mobile house with at least one wall structure according to claim 1.

[0002] A mobile home is a house which, unlike a traditional house, is either built on wheels or designed so that it can be moved to different locations with minimal effort. This allows for greater flexibility in site selection and, moreover, offers the possibility of placing the mobile home, with proper road traffic permits, on land not explicitly designated as building land.

[0003] This is particularly advantageous when used as a forest kindergarten or hunting lodge, since the location of these two applications is, by its very nature, primarily on areas designated as "grassland" or similar.

[0004] However, one problem that arises in the design of these mobile living units is the contrasting requirements regarding mobility and the building characteristics of a house, i.e.: sound insulation, fire protection, thermal insulation, indoor hygiene, etc.

[0005] While a classic timber frame construction proves advantageous in terms of mobility, it has numerous disadvantages regarding its structural properties: - The walls of a timber frame building are relatively thin and therefore offer less sound insulation compared to solid wood due to the lower mass per unit area. - Due to the hollow construction, fires within the structure are difficult to fight and can lead to disproportionate damage. Due to their lightweight construction, timber frame walls have a lower thermal mass. Furthermore, the timber studs act as thermal bridges, as the insulation material is only installed between them. Overall, this results in timber frame buildings offering poorer thermal insulation and making them unsuitable for year-round use. This is particularly significant in colder climates, such as the Alps. Furthermore, the vapor barrier must be installed very carefully on the room side and must not be damaged, as otherwise mold can easily form. This also poses a problem with regard to any future expansion of the living space.

[0006] Another disadvantage of the current state of the art is the use of plastics and other materials that are difficult or impossible to biodegrade. These not only create a poorer indoor climate but are also environmentally problematic, considering the intended use of these mobile homes – forests, meadows, and other green spaces.

[0007] Furthermore, for the mobile home to be used flexibly, it is important to comply with the respective building regulations and individual standards (regarding fire protection, thermal insulation, sound insulation, etc.) at the future parking location.

[0008] It is an object of the invention to provide a wall structure for a mobile house in which the aforementioned disadvantages are at least partially eliminated.

[0009] This problem is solved by a wall structure with the features of claim 1.

[0010] Such a wall structure for a mobile house, preferably for a mobile forest kindergarten or a mobile hunting lodge, has at least the following features: - at least one interior cladding layer with at least one solid wood panel, preferably at least one cross-laminated timber panel, - at least one insulation layer of the mobile home with at least one insulation board made of natural fiber, preferably at least one wood fiberboard, - at least one ventilation layer with at least two layers arranged at an angle, preferably at a right angle, to each other and at a distance parallel to each other, preferably wherein the at least two layers are formed in the form of wooden slats, - at least one outer cladding layer with at least one, preferably at least two, solid wood slats arranged parallel to each other, preferably made of larch wood.

[0011] An advantage of this type of wall construction is the comprehensive insulation with at least one natural fiber insulation board, which prevents the formation of thermal bridges.

[0012] Due to its massive construction and the use of multiple layers, a wall construction according to the invention also offers improved sound insulation.

[0013] Another advantage is the improved fire protection. Because the wall structure has no cavities in the inner and / or outer cladding layers, these layers only char on the surface in the event of a fire. Extinguishing the fire is also simple, and the risk of internal fire spread is significantly reduced.

[0014] The use of natural materials that are biodegradable and offer sufficient protection against changing weather conditions is also advantageous. In particular, the use of larch wood for the outer cladding has proven especially beneficial due to its dense growth and high resin content.

[0015] Advantageous embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.

[0016] According to a preferred embodiment, each layer is made of a natural material and / or a biodegradable material. This ensures optimal adaptation to the environment and / or the storage location and / or facilitates repairs, as a complex recycling process is eliminated.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the at least one inner lining layer has a thickness of at least 6, preferably at least 8, centimeters. This achieves, among other things, the necessary mass per unit area to ensure adequate sound insulation. Furthermore, the fire protection of the structure is improved with increasing thickness.

[0018] Ideally, at least one interior cladding layer should be made of Swiss pine wood. The essential oils released by the Swiss pine wood not only have a proven calming effect on people, stimulating dopamine production among other things, but also act as a deterrent to numerous pests.

[0019] Swiss pine wood also has proven antibacterial properties, which can at least contain the spread of pathogens, proving particularly advantageous when used in kindergartens.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the interior cladding layer comprises at least one solid wood panel made from recycled wood. This results in a particularly attractive visual appearance and reduces CO2 emissions by approximately 99% compared to disposing of the wood in landfills or incineration.

[0021] In a further preferred embodiment, the at least one insulating layer has a thickness of at least 6, preferably at least 8, centimeters.

[0022] This ensures at least thermal insulation of an exterior wall in accordance with the requirements of the Austrian Standards ÖNORM B 6400-1.

[0023] Particularly preferably, at least one insulating layer is designed to be vapor-tight and / or has at least one vapor barrier, preferably in the form of at least one foil.

[0024] The vapor barrier and / or the vapor-tight insulation layer prevents moisture from penetrating and thus prevents mold growth within the wall structure.

[0025] According to a further embodiment, the at least two layers of the at least one ventilation layer have a distance parallel to each other of at least 2 centimeters.

[0026] The ventilation layer prevents the formation of condensation within the wall structure, for example due to a dew point located within the structure.

[0027] The closely spaced cross-battening of at least two layers of at least one ventilation layer also increases the stability of the construction.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the at least two solid wood slats of the at least one outer cladding layer have a thickness of at least 2 centimeters.

[0029] This achieves an optimal balance of lightness, stability and weather resistance of the outer cladding.

[0030] According to a preferred embodiment, the at least two solid wood slats of the at least one outer cladding layer have at least one groove.

[0031] The at least two adjacent solid wood slats can be connected to each other via the at least one groove, preferably by means of at least one fastening device.

[0032] At least one of the fastening devices is preferably a spring made of wood.

[0033] The resulting tongue-and-groove joint and / or groove joint has the advantage that, due to the natural expansion of the wood, an increasingly stronger connection between the solid wood slats is achieved over time, without necessarily requiring additional fasteners such as nails, glue, foam, etc.

[0034] It is particularly preferred that the wall structure additionally includes at least one windproof membrane, preferably in and / or on the at least one ventilated layer.

[0035] According to a preferred embodiment, the at least one wall structure has at least one area for receiving, preferably in a form-fitting manner, at least one area of ​​a floor of the mobile house.

[0036] The integration of the floor thus ensures that thermal bridges in a transition area between wall structure and floor are prevented, and the penetration of wind and / or water into an intermediate space is prevented.

[0037] Protection is also sought for a mobile home with at least one wall structure according to at least one of the embodiments described above.

[0038] According to a preferred embodiment of the mobile home, at least one roof, preferably a gable roof, is provided.

[0039] A pitched roof has proven to be particularly advantageous due to its high resistance to snow loads.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, at least one additional roof structure is provided for covering a parking area for at least one vehicle, preferably at least one car, wherein the at least one additional roof structure can be connected to the at least one roof of the mobile home in such a way that a continuous roof surface is created.

[0041] In this embodiment, the mobile home is transported to the intended parking location without a roof, and then the roof and the additional roof structure are assembled.

[0042] The additional roof construction creates a carport and / or a covered storage area for various equipment that may need to be protected from rain and other weather conditions and cannot and / or should not be stored inside the mobile home.

[0043] According to a further embodiment of the mobile house, it is provided that the at least one roof has at least one skylight, wherein the at least one skylight extends in the longitudinal direction of the at least one mobile house and has at least one window.

[0044] Installing a continuous strip of lights allows for optimal illumination of the interior of the mobile home. This can subsequently reduce the need for additional artificial lighting devices.

[0045] In addition, the ceiling height is increased, which ensures a better living environment and improved aesthetics of the interior.

[0046] In order to prevent unwanted nesting of birds in and / or on the mobile home, a preferred embodiment provides that the at least one mobile home has at least one bird protection grid, preferably at a transition between the at least one wall structure and the at least one roof.

[0047] It is particularly preferred that the mobile home has at least one chassis with at least two wheels, wherein the at least two wheels are connected to each other via at least one axle.

[0048] It may also be provided that the mobile home has a coupling device for a vehicle.

[0049] In a further embodiment of the mobile home, at least one maneuvering aid, preferably detachably attached, is provided. The maneuvering aid is preferably attachable to an exterior wall of the mobile home.

[0050] According to a preferred embodiment of the mobile home, the at least one mobile home has at least one support device to secure the mobile home against rolling away.

[0051] It is particularly preferred that at least one support device be detachably connectable to the mobile home and / or be adjustable in length.

[0052] This ensures that the ground and / or the mounting surface on which the mobile home is placed does not necessarily have to be level, but that certain unevennesses or slopes of the terrain can be compensated for.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment, at least one staircase and / or at least one terrace is additionally provided, preferably wherein the at least one staircase and / or the at least one terrace have a roof, preferably connectable to the roof of the mobile home, at least in some areas.

[0054] By installing at least one set of stairs, the mobile home can be stored at a higher elevation to protect it from possible small-scale and / or large-scale flooding.

[0055] According to a further preferred embodiment, the floor of the mobile house has at least an insulating layer in some areas and / or at least one heating system, preferably in the form of at least one underfloor heating system, is provided.

[0056] This ensures, among other things, that the mobile home remains habitable and / or usable throughout the year.
