[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2024-25359 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, in the technology described in Patent Document 1, adjacent walls are arranged so that the protruding portions of one wall and the protruding portions of the other wall are staggered on the inside and outside when viewed from the room side. This means that the other wall can only be arranged linearly with respect to the first wall, which limits the types of shapes that can be used for the shaped object.

[0009] Hereinafter, a structure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. The embodiment shows one aspect of the present disclosure, but does not limit the present disclosure and can be modified as desired within the scope of the technical concept of the present disclosure.

[0010] The object according to the present disclosure is a first layered object and a third layered object formed by layering a cement-based material using a layered manufacturing machine, and the first layered object and the third layered object are arranged adjacent to each other in a cross direction that intersects with the layering direction. First, an example of the configuration of the layered manufacturing machine 100 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0011] <Additive manufacturing machine> FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of the configuration of an additive manufacturing machine 100. As shown in FIG. 1, the additive manufacturing machine 100 includes a nozzle 102, a movement mechanism 104, a supply pump 106, and a control device 108. The cementitious material M is, for example, mortar or concrete, and is produced by mixing water, cement, aggregate, and the like. The cementitious material M may be made from limestone, which is primarily composed of calcium carbonate, or may be made from gypsum, fly ash, blast furnace slag, molten slag, siliceous admixture, sewage incineration sludge, kaolin, incineration ash, or the like.

[0012] The nozzle 102 has an opening at its tip, and discharges the cement material M from this opening 102a. The movement mechanism 104 moves the nozzle 102 in any direction. Specifically, the movement mechanism 104 is an arm that supports the nozzle 102, and is electrically connected to a control device 108. When the arm moves in any direction in accordance with instructions from the control device 108, the nozzle 102 moves in both the vertical and horizontal directions.

[0013] The supply pump 106 supplies the cementitious material M to the nozzle 102. The supply pump 106 is electrically connected to the control device 108, and supplies the amount of cementitious material M to the nozzle 102 in accordance with instructions from the control device 108.

[0014] The control device 108 is a device for controlling the amount of cement-based material M discharged from the nozzle 102 and the movement of the nozzle 102 in order to form an additive manufacturing object having a desired shape. The control device 108 is a computer such as an electronic control device, and includes a processor such as a CPU or GPU (not shown), memories such as ROM and RAM, and an I / O interface. The processor of the control device 108 operates (performs calculations, etc.) according to instructions of a program loaded into the memory, and the control device 108 transmits instructions to each device (the arm and supply pump 106 described above) included in the additive manufacturing machine 100. In some embodiments, the control device 108 is configured to be able to receive signals for understanding the status of each device. In some embodiments, the control device 108 is a cloud server provided in a cloud environment.

[0015] In this disclosure, the additive manufacturing machine 100 will be described as manufacturing an additively manufactured object by layering cementitious material M in the vertical direction D1. In other words, the layering direction is the vertical direction D1. Each layer of the additively manufactured object is formed by continuously discharging the cementitious material M while moving the nozzle 102 (in a so-called single stroke). Each layer of the additively manufactured object may include a non-layered portion (such as a notch 18 described below) where the cementitious material M is not layered. The method for forming the non-layered portion is not particularly limited. The non-layered portion is formed, for example, by interrupting the discharge of the cementitious material M from the nozzle 102, moving the nozzle 102 to a predetermined position, and then continuously discharging the cementitious material M while moving the nozzle 102 again.

[0016] <Sculpture> The object 1 is assembled by combining multiple additively-modeled objects created by the additive manufacturing machine 100 described above. The object 1 is, for example, a wall, a pillar, a floor, a ceiling, or the like, and is a component that makes up a building. In this disclosure, the object 1 is described as a wall 1A(1) of a building, and the length direction of the wall is simply referred to as the "length direction D2," and the width direction (thickness direction) of the wall is simply referred to as the "width direction D3." The up-down direction D1, the length direction D2, and the width direction D3 are all perpendicular to one another.

The first other-side protrusion 16 is a portion of the first plate portion 12 on the left side of the first imaginary line L1 in the width direction D3. The first other-side protrusion 16 includes the other end 12d of the first plate portion 12, and as it moves from the other end 12d of the first plate portion 12 toward one side in the longitudinal direction D2, it moves away from the first imaginary line L1 and then returns to the first imaginary line L1. The first one-side protrusion 14 is located on one side of the first other-side protrusion 16 in the longitudinal direction D2.

[0021] In one embodiment, a downwardly recessed notch 18 is formed in the upper surface 12a of the first plate portion 12. The lower end of the second plate portion 24, which will be described later, is fitted into this notch 18. The notch 18 is located in the center of the first plate portion 12 so as to be located at the boundary between the first one-side protrusion 14 and the first other-side protrusion 16. The depth of the notch 18 is not particularly limited.

The first joint 20 and the other-end first joint 22 are offset from each other in the vertical direction D1, and the other-end first joint 22 is located lower than the first joint 20. The lower surface 22b of the other-end first joint 22 is continuous with the lower surface 12b of the first plate portion 12. The lower surface 20b of the first joint 20 and the upper surface 22a of the other-end first joint 22 are positioned at the same or nearly the same level in the vertical direction D1. The upper surface 20a of the first joint 20 and the concave surface 18a of the notch 18 are positioned at the same or nearly the same level in the vertical direction D1.

This second joint portion 32 has a second space 33 extending in the up-down direction D1.

[0026] In one embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 6 , the second plate portion 24 has a zigzag shape in which second one-side protrusions 26 protruding to the right and second other-side protrusions 28 protruding to the left are alternately arranged when viewed from the up-down direction D1. Each of the second one-side protrusions 26 and the second other-side protrusions 28 has a curved shape such that the outer shape changes smoothly over the entire length direction D2 when viewed from above. A straight line passing through one end 24c and the other end 24d of the second plate portion 24 is defined as a second imaginary line L2. The second one-side protrusion 26 is a portion of the second plate portion 24 to the right of the second imaginary line L2 in the width direction D3. The second one-side protrusion 26 includes the other end 24d of the second plate portion 24 and moves away from the second imaginary line L2 and then returns to the second imaginary line L2 as it moves from the other end 24d of the second plate portion 24 toward one side in the length direction D2.

[0045] In one embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 2 , the second layered object 4 is disposed on the first layered object 2 such that the second other-side protrusion 28 overlaps with the first one-side protrusion 14 in the length direction D2, and the second one-side protrusion 26 overlaps with the first other-side protrusion 16 in the length direction D2. With this arrangement, the first one-side protrusion 14 and the second other-side protrusion 28 are adjacent to each other in the up-down direction D1. When viewed from the up-down direction D1, the first one-side protrusion 14 and the second other-side protrusion 28 surround each other, thereby forming a first gap 40. Similarly, the first other-side protrusion 16 and the second one-side protrusion 26 are adjacent to each other in the up-down direction D1. A second gap 42 is formed by the first other-side protrusion 16 and the second one-side protrusion 26 surrounding each other.

[0046] In some embodiments, the second layered object 4 has the same shape as the first layered object 2. In this case, the second layered object 4 included in the wall 1A is the first layered object 2 turned upside down. In other words, a plurality of first layered objects 2 are alternately stacked upside down. This configuration can reduce the manufacturing cost of the wall 1A.

[0047] (Actions and Effects) The following describes the functions and effects of the wall 1A according to one embodiment. According to this embodiment, the third plate portion 61 and the fourth plate portion 66 can be rotated around the rod member 90 as a central axis. This allows the third layered object 6 and the fourth layered object 8 to be arranged at an angle or in a straight line relative to the first layered object 2 and the second layered object 4, thereby increasing the variety of shapes of the wall 1A. Furthermore, because the rod member 90 passes through the first space 21 to the fourth space 72, the first layered object 2 to the fourth layered object 8 can be integrated.

[0048] According to one embodiment, the wall 1A includes the filling portion 96, which allows the first layered object 2 to the fourth layered object 8 to be more firmly integrated, thereby improving the strength of the wall 1A.

[0049] When using the additive manufacturing machine 100 to manufacture an additively manufactured object that includes a bent portion (e.g., a portion bent at a right angle), the amount of material discharged toward the bent portion increases when the direction of movement of the nozzle 102 is changed, which may result in manufacturing an additively manufactured object with a shape that differs significantly from the intended shape. According to one embodiment, the arc portion 29, the other-end-side arc portion 31, the second arc portion 36, the second other-end-side arc portion 37, the third arc portion 85, and the opposite-side arc portion 86 each have an arc shape, allowing the additive manufacturing machine 100 to smoothly layer the cementitious material M. This makes it possible to manufacture an additively manufactured object with a shape that is close to the intended shape.

[0050] Note that the present disclosure does not limit the shapes of the first joint 20, the other-end-side first joint 22, the second joint 32, the other-end-side second joint 34, the third joint 62, and the opposite-side third joint 63 to annular shapes. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the configuration of a first joint 20 according to another embodiment, viewed from above. In the example shown in FIG. 9, the first joint 20 has a square ring shape to define the first space 21 when viewed from above, and the four corners are rounded. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the configuration of a first joint 20 according to yet another embodiment, viewed from above. In the example shown in FIG. 10, the first joint 20 has an arc shape, specifically a C-shape, to define the first space 21 when viewed from above. Similarly, each of the other end side first joint 22, the second joint 32, the other end side second joint 34, the third joint 62, and the opposite side third joint 63 may have a square ring shape or a C shape.

[0051] According to one embodiment, the first plate portion 12, the second plate portion 24, the third plate portion 61, the fourth plate portion 66, the fifth plate portion 79, and the sixth plate portion 89 each have a zigzag shape, so that the wall 1A is configured to be wide in the width direction D3. Therefore, compared to a flat wall, the wall 1A has a higher resistance to a load in the width direction D3, and can be prevented from collapsing toward the ground or floor.

[0052] It should be noted that the present disclosure is not limited to each of the first plate portion 12 to the sixth plate portion 89 having a zigzag shape. At least one of the first plate portion 12 to the sixth plate portion 89 may have a zigzag shape. Each of the first plate portion 12 to the sixth plate portion 89 may be flat.

[0053] According to one embodiment, the fifth plate portion 79 and the sixth plate portion 89 can be rotated around the second rod member 92 as a central axis. Therefore, similar to the third layered object 6 and the fourth layered object 8, the fifth layered object 10 and the sixth layered object 11 can be arranged at an angle or in a straight line relative to the first layered object 2 and the second layered object 4, thereby increasing the variety of shapes of the wall 1A. Furthermore, because the second rod member 92 passes through all of the other-end-side first space 23, the fifth space 88, the sixth space 91, and the other-end-side second space 35, the first layered object 2, the second layered object 4, the fifth layered object 10, and the sixth layered object 11 can be integrated.

[0054] According to one embodiment, the first joint of the first layered object and the first joint on the other end side are offset from each other in the vertical direction, so that the two first layered objects 2 can be arranged next to each other along the longitudinal direction D2. In other words, the third layered object 6 and the fifth layered object 10 have the same or similar shape as the first layered object 2. This reduces the number of steps required to form the wall 1A.

[0055] The present disclosure does not limit the shape of the layered object included in the wall 1A to the shape of the first layered object 2 or the shape of the second layered object 4. Fig. 11 is a perspective view schematically showing the configuration of the second layered object 4 according to a first modified example. Fig. 12 is a perspective view schematically showing the configuration of the second layered object 4 according to a second modified example. Fig. 13 is a perspective view schematically showing the configuration of the second layered object 4 according to a third modified example. The first layered object 2 may have the shape shown in Figs. 11 to 13.

[0056] 11, the second joint portion 32 is located higher than the other-end-side second joint portion 34. The other-end-side second joint portion 34 has a lower surface 34b that is continuous with the lower surface 24b of the second plate portion 24. The lower surface 32b of the second joint portion 32 and the upper surface 34a of the other-end-side second joint portion 34 are at the same or almost the same position in the up-down direction D1.

[0057] 12, the lower surface 32b of the second joint 32 is continuous with the lower surface 24b of the second plate portion 24. The lower surface 34b of the other-end-side second joint 34 is continuous with the lower surface 24b of the second plate portion 24. The upper surface 32a of the second joint 32 and the upper surface 34a of the other-end-side second joint 34 are positioned at the same or almost the same level in the up-down direction D1.

[0058] 13, the second joint portion 32 and the other-end-side second joint portion 34 are positioned so as to overlap each other in the vertical direction D1 between the upper surface 24a and the lower surface 24b of the second plate portion 24. The lower surface 32b of the second joint portion 32 and the lower surface 34b of the other-end-side second joint portion 34 are positioned at the same or almost the same position as each other in the vertical direction D1.
