Technical Field

[0001] Cross - reference to Related Applications This application claims priority to U.S. Patent Application No. 17 / 168,890, filed on February 5, 2020, the entire contents of which are hereby expressly incorporated by reference herein.

[0002] The present invention relates to improvements in building construction. More specifically, current modular walls used for building construction create a method for quickly assembling a building on a foundation.

Background Art

[0003] Building construction has evolved from caves to more modern construction, but the need to build more efficiently and quickly remains a high priority. After pouring and installing the foundation, most construction methods involve cutting and fixing 2×4 lumber at 16 - inch centers and then drilling holes in the lumber to accommodate electrical and plumbing connections. Then, plumbing and electrical wiring are placed through the holes and connected. Both the cutting and nailing of studs and the routing of wiring and plumbing are very labor - intensive, resulting in significant cost and time in building a building or house. Some houses are custom - built, but most houses are similar. For both accelerating the construction process and reducing the overall cost of construction, it is necessary to pre - fabricate some house walls so that they can be quickly connected and fixed.

[0004] To address these problems, many patents and / or publications have been created. Exemplary examples of patents and / or publications attempting to address this / these problems are identified and discussed below.

[0005] U.S. Patent No. 5,634,315 (Patent Document 1), issued to Kiyomi Toya on June 3, 1997, is titled "Building Method of Construction." This patent discloses a method of constructing a building by forming a foundation on the ground surface, arranging a plurality of upright supports projecting upward from the foundation, fixing covering panels to the upright supports and extending upward from the foundation, arranging a plurality of pre-formed composite assemblies, each having a pair of composite boards, and utilizing a plurality of pre-formed composite assemblies arranged adjacent to one another to form the walls, floors, and ceilings of the building. This is a typical construction method and does not include pre-fabricated wall sections with installed water pipes and electrical conduits.

[0006] U.S. Patent No. 6,256,960 (Patent Document 2), issued to Frank J. Babcock et al. on July 10, 2001, is titled "Modular Building Construction and Components Thereof." This patent discloses a modular building construction and its components. The building's foundation is surrounded by anchor bolts. A metal lower track is installed on the anchor bolts and secured with nuts and rod couplers. Elongated connector rods are screwed into the upper ends of the couplers. Pre-fabricated modular wall panels, integrally molded with metal studs along the first side edge and complementary recesses along the second side edge, are installed continuously on the track. The first panel is installed so that the opening side of the stud surrounds the connector rod. The adjacent second panel is installed so that its second side edge faces the stud. The two panels are slid together to surround and enclose the connector rod. In this patent, electrical and water pipes are installed by removing the wall sheath.

[0007] U.S. Patent No. 7,062,885 (Patent Document 3), issued to George H. Dickenson Jr. on June 20, 2006, is titled Foundation Wall, Construction Kit and Method. This patent discloses that the kit consists of prefabricated modular components and hardware that can be used to easily and efficiently construct the foundation of a moderately sized building, such as a house. In another aspect, the kit of this invention can be seen as embodying a variety of optional modular components that can be used to construct stairs, landings, and / or decks. The kit is for residential construction but is limited to exterior walls without electricity or water pipes.

[0008] What is needed are prefabricated wall sections that can be quickly joined together to construct buildings and houses. These prefabricated wall sections must also include water pipe connections and electrical connections. The proposed mechanical wall provides a solution. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0009] [Patent Document 1] U.S. Patent No. 5,634,315 [Patent Document 2] U.S. Patent No. 6,256,960 [Patent Document 3] U.S. Patent No. 7,062,885 [Overview of the project]

[0010] The purpose of this machine wall is to have tapered and dovetailed sides. The dovetails are spaced according to structural requirements to reduce the height at which one section needs to be lifted to engage with an adjacent wall section. The dovetail fits loosely due to the taper as it begins to enter the dovetail slot, and then engages tightly and securely as the dovetail tapers at the bottom.

[0011] Another purpose of mechanical walls is to provide seismic or hurricane retainers on the footer or base plate, which can be aligned and secured to the wall portion from the foundation. These retainers may be spaced apart in accordance with the building codes of the area where the building or house is constructed.

[0012] Another purpose of mechanical walls is that modular walls have a fixed-position locking mechanism, thereby eliminating the need for secondary tools to secure the wall sections together. The lock can be incorporated into a side dovetail and can be spring-loaded or unidirectional to quickly lock and secure the modular wall. Installation and locking of the modular wall can be performed without tools other than a lifting hoist in hard-to-reach areas.

[0013] Another purpose of the mechanical wall for connecting the wall section to the base is to have a flashing over the concrete insert. This prevents water from entering the wall section or from below the modular wall. The flashing over the concrete insert can extend the sides of the modular wall slightly upward and also provides waterproofing at the vertical intersections of each wall.

[0014] Another purpose of mechanical walls is to incorporate global positioning sensors (GPS) or similar technology connected to base sleeves, which allows installers to quickly locate and position each modular wall when assembling a building without needing to refer to blueprints.

[0015] Another purpose of mechanical walls is that modular wall sections have integrated electrical and / or water pipes or conduits (to create circuit routes). This minimizes installation for secondary manual work and allows the location of electrical and water fixtures to be discovered in advance along the wall. The in-wall operated electrical circuit mechanism may include an internal release that activates the mechanism when the mechanical wall panel is locked in place, automatically releasing the operating electrical connectors that form the electrical circuit.

[0016] This is yet another purpose of the mechanical wall, regarding electrical connections and / or plumbing connections that join modular walls, connect and seal them with adhesives, push-ins, spin locks, or friction locks to provide a sealed system / path safe for these utilities and allow installers to quickly make connections between modular walls.

[0017] Various objectives, features, aspects, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, together with the accompanying drawings in which like numerals represent like components.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0019] It will be readily understood that the components of the present invention generally described herein and shown in the drawings can be arranged and designed in a wide variety of different configurations. Accordingly, the following more detailed description of embodiments of the systems and methods of the present invention shown in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, but is merely representative of various embodiments of the present invention. The illustrated embodiments of the present invention are best understood by reference to the drawings, in which like parts are designated by like numerals throughout.

[0020] Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a mechanical wall 20 with the inner and outer surfaces removed. This figure shows both the removed inner wall surface and the outer wall surface, but it is considered that a wall portion having at least one outer substrate surface can be installed on the mechanical wall 20. When attaching an outer substrate surface, a rain finish of an adjacent panel is required, or a secondary sealing operation is required. The advantage of this type of installation is that the installer can perform all the joints of the water pipes and electrical conduits from inside the building or house.

[0021] Typically, the exterior is installed, but the finished interior, covered with drywall or sheet rock, can equally cover one side of the modular wall 20. The work of connecting electrical and water lines is performed from the outside of the building or house. From the interior surface, the drywall or sheet rock can be filled with texturing and painting. An advantage of this type of installation is that openings for electrical connection boxes and water pipes can be pre-cut into the drywall or sheet rock.

[0022] In this preferred embodiment, the machine wall 20 section is 48 inches wide, corresponding to a typical width for drywall or sheet rock, but widths from 16 to 96 inches, or other widths according to industry standards, are possible. It should also be understood that the width can be shorter than 16 inches and longer than 96 inches, depending on design requirements. This embodiment also shows intermediate studs 31 with a center of 16 inches and a stud spacing of 99, but these can be 12 inches or 24 inches, depending on design requirements.

[0023] The mechanical wall 20 can consist of 2x4 or 2x6 headers 30, intermediate studs 31 and footers 33, or, again, other dimensions determined by design requirements. The stud members can be made from wood, metal, or other structurally possible materials for studs. Pre-formed concrete and structural steel wall panels also have embedded interlocking mechanisms, which are described herein. The outer vertical studs have male studs 40 with male dovetails 41 and female studs 50 with complementary female dovetails (not shown in this figure). The opposing dovetails allow for rapid assembly of modular wall 20 sections by lifting the (second) new wall section onto the first fixed wall section of the mechanical wall 20. The modular wall can be thoughtfully designed to include lateral vertical slip compensation as an option for the wall-to-wall connection system. Vertical channel openings are positioned to allow the required structural strength (usually at the center 16 inches), so that only minimal force and lifting are required to place the wall system in place. The dovetails can be designed with an optional taper at the base of each connection, allowing them to tighten when slid into place. Because ceiling clearance may be insufficient in the system, a base mechanical locking system can also be used at the side edges of the system, if necessary, to eliminate the need to lift the panel system.

[0024] On the sides are tapered dovetail joints. The dovetails are spaced to have a gap 42 between 3 inches and 18 inches in the center to reduce the height of the lift gap 98 that one part must be lifted to engage with an adjacent wall section, but this can be greater than 18 inches or less than 3 inches, and the distance between dovetail joints can be adjusted to meet structural requirements and / or local building code requirements. The dovetail fits loosely by tapering as it begins to enter the dovetail slot, and engages tightly and securely as the dovetail tapers at the bottom. The bottom of the modular wall 20 shows a bottom flashing 70 with retaining pipes 71 for protection from earthquakes or hurricanes. At the base of the wall system there is mechanical pressure to actuate snap-lock joints, which lock quickly in place and allow the installation process to proceed. The bottom flashing 70 or formwork plates and retaining pipes 71 are shown and described in other figures herein.

[0025] A vertical stud is shown with a notch 32 through which a water pipe 64 penetrates the mechanical wall 20. Although this example shows only a single water pipe 64, the mechanical wall 20 has lines for hot water lines, cold water lines, and electrical connections. In this figure, for clarity and simplification, only one line of water pipe 64 is shown. There is a first pipe 60 and an end coupler 63 that connects to an adjacent modular wall 20 section. A side pipe 61 connects to water pipe 64 for rough water pipe connections such as sinks, toilets, showers, and hose bibs. An expandable coupler 62 allows water pipe 64 to be expanded or contracted to connect to other modular wall 20 sections.

[0026] Electrical and / or plumbing connections joining modular walls are connected and sealed with adhesive, push-in, spin-lock, or friction lock, providing a secure, sealed system that allows installers to quickly connect the modular walls. This can be a one-way locking or rotating system, such as a cam or tab that bends and returns to its original position after the wall section is fully inserted, but may also include an access door or hole for unlocking to remove the wall section.

[0027] Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the male side of the modular wall, and Figure 3 shows a perspective view of the female side of the modular wall. In these figures, the opposite side of the modular wall with the footer 33 can be seen in the bottom flashing 70. The retaining tubes 71 are shown extending from the bottom of the bottom flashing 70. The footer has rods 34 which are fixed or bonded to each retaining tube 71 in order to secure the modular wall portion to the bottom flashing 70. The rods can be threaded, studded, or expandable bolls that grip the retaining tubes 71. The lip 72 of the bottom flashing 70 is understood to extend to one or more sides of the footer 33.

[0028] The intermediate stud 31 is seen in these figures inside the male stud 40 with a male dovetail 41. The notch 32 provides clearance for water pipes 64 and / or electrical pipes that can pass through the modular wall. The end coupler 63 allows the water pipes and / or electrical pipes to be extended (97) to connect to multiple modular walls.

[0029] Figure 4 shows a sill flashing, and Figure 5 shows a detailed view of the end of the sill flashing. The bottom flashing 70 or formwork plate can be cast into or installed in the sill. The flashing bottom 73 is joined or sealed with the sill. The bottom of the retaining pipe 71 may have one or more horizontally or vertically joined plates for further securing the bottom flashing 70 or formwork plate within the sill. One or more sides of the bottom flashing 70 may extend along the bottom of a footer (not shown in this figure) and may have a flashing lip 72 that can open (96) or bend to seal the bottom flashing 70 to the footer. The retaining pipe 71 has a central opening 74 for receiving and joining a rod extending from the bottom of the footer.

[0030] The advantage of vertical legs for overlay flashing that are built into the base or foundation is for the waterproofing process at the base of the wall system, and there is a vertical lip built into the base lock channel that allows for a complete overlay flashing connection when the wall panels are installed in place.

[0031] The wall system incorporates sensors for unmanned, autonomous, or remotely operated delivery systems and enables two-point support installation (the wall can be initially installed manually). Each panel has a GPS sensor and / or RFID tag to identify the panel and verify where each panel is located, positioned, and secured. This eliminates assembly errors and allows for the high-precision, rapid assembly of buildings and houses.

[0032] Although the panel is shown as a solid wall panel, it is conceivable that wall panels with openings for windows and / or doors can be manufactured and installed. It is also conceivable that window frames or window frames with glass can be installed or pre-installed on the machine wall 20.

[0033] Figure 6 shows a perspective view of the machine wall being secured to the bottom flashing retainer. In this embodiment, the bottom flashing 70 has a socket 77 fixed to the bottom. The socket 77 has a post 76 with a curved anchor 75. These components are cement-fixed or cast into the sill. This provides the sill with a secure system. The socket 77 is tapered, and its taper further secures the socket within the building's sill. The socket 77 has a central opening 74 that receives an expansion wedge 36 fixed to the bottom of a rod 34 on a footer (not shown).

[0034] As the machine wall is being assembled, the expansion wedge 36 is inserted (95) through the central opening 74 and expanded (94) to pull the machine wall and set it in place on the base. The expansion wedge 36 can be expanded by generating tension (93) when the plug 35 is pulled into the expansion wedge 36. It is also conceivable that the expansion wedge 36 can be expanded automatically by an internal spring when the plug makes contact with the bottom of the socket. This does not require any tools for operation, and both springs pull the expansion wedge 36 into the socket 77, and the downward force on the rod 34 further secures the expansion wedge 36 in the socket 77. It is conceivable that the machine wall can be assembled by robot or automation.

[0035] Figure 7 shows an exploded perspective view of the base 21 and the footer 33 having an insulating waterproofing 55. In this figure, three installed walls 22 are shown and the machine wall 20 is lowered (92). Vertical studs and intermediate studs 31 are fixed to the footer / bottom plate 33. The wall can also be considered to be a solid structure without internal studs. The footer / bottom plate 33 is fixed to a male formwork 43 box. The male formwork 43 box has a bottom lock 44. The male formwork 43 box is pushed down into a female formwork 53 box having a formwork receiving opening 54 for the male formwork 43 box (92). At the bottom of the female formwork 53 box is a retainer that locks into the lock 44 of the male formwork 43 box. When both parts are engaged, the female formwork 53 box has a waterproofing 55 that prevents water from entering the machine wall frame. Rainproofing 55 can also be configured for finishing materials such as, but not limited to, stucco, block, wood siding, or shingle boards.

[0036] Figure 8 shows a perspective view of another preferred embodiment for securing a machine wall to a bottom waterproofing retainer. In this embodiment, there is a coupling rod 37 with a one-way coupling 38 that snaps into a receiving portion 80. The extended receiving portion 81 uses a spring-loaded ball, pin, or tapered latch or lock in the one-way coupling 38 when the coupling rod 37 is pushed down (92). This locks the machine wall to the base without requiring secondary work such as screwing nuts onto the rod or nailing footers to the formwork or base.

[0037] Figure 9 shows a perspective view of another preferred embodiment for securing the machine wall to the bottom waterproofing retainer. This embodiment uses angled teeth on a toothed rod 39. The toothed rod 39 is pressed into or pushed down into a hole in the base (92). The teeth grip the hole 79, and adhesive can also be added to the hole 79 or on the teeth to bond the toothed rod 39 to the hole 79.

[0038] Figure 10 shows a perspective view of the machine wall 20 during assembly. This figure shows a plurality of male studs 40 having three installed and fixed machine walls 20 and a fourth machine wall 20 lowered (92) into place. The bottom of each coupling rod 37 is a one-way coupling 38. Inside the retaining tube 71 is a receiving section 80 that connects and fixes the machine wall 20 when it is brought into place. This is completed without secondary tightening or fixing of additional hardware.

[0039] Figure 11 shows a perspective wireframe view of a machine wall 20 having a dovetail fitting, an electrical connector, and a one-way fixing system, and Figure 12 shows a perspective wireframe view of a machine wall 20 with an electrical connector and a one-way fixing system. These figures show a machine wall 20 with an alternative fixing system and an electrical connector that joins adjacent machine walls 20. At the top of the machine wall 20 is a dovetail fitting that interconnects a fixed wall having a female dovetail 47 and an installed machine wall 20 having a male dovetail 40.

[0040] The base has multiple receiving sections 80 that receive male posts 120 extending from the bottom of the footer / bottom plate 33 of each machine wall 20. When installed, the male posts 120 are inserted into the receiving sections 80 and “tapped” downward to secure the male posts 120. Each section of the machine wall 20 is quickly installed and locked in place. In Figure 11, the section is shown with a window. Each section of the machine wall 20 is manufactured in advance, along with all doors, windows, or other features, when the machine wall 20 is manufactured. When installed, the sections of the machine wall 20 are secured according to the assembly sequence and instructions. After the machine wall 20 is secured, the electrical (and / or plumbing) connections are aligned. In these figures, the conduits 100 within each section of the machine wall 20 include a breakjaw box 110 and a knife blade box 130. Further illustrations and descriptions of the interconnections are shown and described in other figures herein.

[0041] Figure 13 shows perspective views of both sides of a dovetail fitting at one end of each wall. The right side of this figure is the mounting wall 22, and the left side is the machine wall 20 being installed. The mounting wall 22 has a female dovetail 47, and the machine wall 20 being installed has a male dovetail 46. Although this figure shows the walls arranged in a straight line, the wall being installed may be positioned at a 90-degree angle or at another angle, and the machine wall 20 being installed may have a male dovetail 46 installed at the desired angle that mates with the female dovetail 47. The female dovetail 47 is fitted into the wall, and the male dovetail 46 is installed on the outside of the flat end face of the wall. Each male dovetail 46 and female dovetail 47 is a bracket with lugs 48 and is fastened to the respective side of the machine wall with fasteners 49.

[0042] The wall being installed is simply lifted onto the installed mechanical wall 22 and engages with the dovetail surface. Although only one dovetail connection is shown, there may be multiple dovetail connections along the height of the wall end to provide multiple fixed positions in accordance with building codes. It may also include a lateral adjustment track as shown in Figure 18. This would allow the male studs to be adjustable as needed, and the male and female studs to be aligned if necessary.

[0043] Figure 14 shows a perspective view of a one-way fixing system at the bottom of a wall section, and Figure 15 shows a perspective view of a one-way fixing system having both male post 120 and female receiving section 80 connections. Once the base (or floor) is poured or installed, the receiving section 80 is set and cast or poured. The receiving section 80 can be positioned and held in place within the base 56 or base using a flange 85 base or base formwork. The flange 85 can be left in or removed and reused. The flange 85 base creates a predetermined distance between concrete-embedded inserts for the high level of precision required to space the concrete-embedded inserts for installation of the wall panel system. Each receiving section 80 has a hole 84 in a tube 87 to receive a male post 120 protruding from the bottom of the machine wall. One (or more) sides of the inside of the tube 87 have multiple ledges 86 or teeth. The ledge 86 or teeth are configured to engage with the teeth 124 in the male post 120.

[0044] The male post 120 extends from the bottom of the footer 33 in the machine wall portion through a hole. The flange 122 holds the footer 33 within the receiving portion 80. The hole 123 in the flange 122 is inside the cylindrical wall 121 of the pipe that forms the male post 120. The pipe receiving portion can also be made square, rectangular, and other practical shapes. The male post 120 has locking teeth 124 that engage with a ledge 86 inside the pipe 87. The teeth 124 are located on a hinge 126, which allows the teeth 124 to bend and move in and out (89) (88) when the teeth latch onto the ledge 86. A specific number of teeth 124 and ledge 86 are shown, but different numbers of teeth 124 and ledge 86 can be used together, along with arranging the teeth 124 and ledge in multiple locations, or arranging the ledge 86 around the inside of the pipe 87. The top of the flange 122 can be “striked” or pressure applied to press the machine wall against the receiving portion 80 and secure it. Components of the locking teeth 124 are further shown together with a lever 125 which can rotate or move (88) the teeth 124 to release the teeth 124 from the ledge 86 and to disassemble, rearrange, or move the machine wall.

[0045] Figure 16 shows a perspective view of the connection points of both walls for an electrical connection between two mechanical walls, and Figure 17 shows a perspective view of the electrical connection connected between two mechanical walls. A time-consuming task when building a house is running electrical wiring through the wall studs. Electrical conduits 100 with internal conductors 101 are pre-installed within the mechanical walls. Each connection box is secured with a fixture 111 or fixture 132. Once the wall is installed, each side of the wall section has an electrical connection point that supplies power through the wall section. The installed wall section has a breakjaw box 110 with three electrical connection points for a first breakjaw 112, a second breakjaw 113, and a third breakjaw 114 that connect to hot, neutral, and ground electrical wiring. A first insulating divider 115 and a second insulating divider 166 ensure electrical insulation between conductors.

[0046] Together with the knife blade box 130, the conductors 101 enter a rotatable barrel 133 having an insulator 135 that connects each conductor 101 to a separate blade 134. The barrel 133 rotates (103) to move the blades 134 from a vertical position to a horizontal position. A spring 137 biases the rotation of the blades 134 to maintain their position. In the horizontal position, the blades 134 engage with their respective break jaws 112-114. A key 136 or shaft 131 is inserted into the barrel 133, and the key is used to turn (102) the shaft 131 and / or the barrel 133 to engage (or disengage) with the electrical connections between adjacent machine walls.

[0047] Thus, specific embodiments of modular walls used for constructing buildings have been disclosed. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many modifications other than those described are possible without departing from the inventive concept of this specification. Therefore, the subject matter of the present invention is not limited to the spirit of the appended claims. [Industrial applicability]
