DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tile as a decorative member such as an outer wall of a building, and more particularly to a unit in which tile pieces are connected to each other by a connecting member to facilitate handling during construction. It relates to tiles.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when performing work for attaching tile pieces to a building wall or the like, in order to improve the workability and obtain a stable finish, the tile pieces are connected at a fixed number of unit areas to obtain a unit area. In many cases, unit tiles are configured for each unit tile, and sticking work is performed for each unit tile. As a structure for this, whether the connecting material for forming the unit tile is on the front side or the back side of the tile piece, there are a unit tile of the front and a unit tile of the back. .

As shown in FIG. 5, a unit tile 1 'is used as a unit tile. The tile pieces 10' are arranged in an aligned state using a sheet-like connecting material 15 'arranged in a unit area as shown in FIG. The connecting member 15 'is attached to the front surface 11' of the tile piece 10 '. As a result, the plurality of tile pieces 10 ′ can be handled as if it were a single tile as a whole per unit number, so that the construction is quick and the alignment state is maintained in at least one unit, The finish is also made uniform accordingly.
However, in reality, after bonding is performed on the wall surface with mortar or the like, and then fixed to the tile pieces 10 ', specifically, after a certain area is raised, the front of the unit tile 1' is Since the connecting member 15 'covering the surface 11' is peeled off, there is a problem that the peeling operation is troublesome and the finished state can be checked for the first time at that stage. At that time, if there is a defect in the finish, it is necessary to perform a correction work again.

[0004] In recognition of such inconvenience in the facing unit tile 1 ', an lining unit tile 1' in which a connecting member 15 'is provided on the back side of the tile piece 10' is also used. In this case, of course, the back side of the tile piece 10 'is a portion to be bonded to the bonding means 4' such as cement mortar, an adhesive or the like. Therefore, the sheet-like connecting material 15 'which covers the entire surface as described above is used. Can not be used. Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 6, the connecting member 15 'is formed so that a part of the sheet is cut out in a perforated shape and a net is used to bond the tile piece 10' and the bonding means 4 '. ing.

[0005] However, even if such a method is adopted, the ratio of the area of the portion where no connecting material is present, that is, the so-called aperture ratio, cannot be sufficiently obtained in the unit tile of the lining, and the tile is bonded to the tile piece 10 '. There was also a disadvantage that the bonding with the means 4 'was not sufficiently performed. In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, an attempt has been made to obtain a sufficient aperture ratio by using a net-like connecting member 15 '. In this case, as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. The piece 10 'is provided directly on the back surface of the "raft foot 13'" to ensure the construction of the piece 10 ', so that the bonding means 4' does not bite into the groove 13b 'between the back feet at the time of construction. In other words, the problem has been pointed out that the tile pieces 10 'may be installed in a floating state.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of such a background, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a so-called lining unit tile which can be installed while checking the condition of a tile piece.

[0012]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The unit tile of the present invention will be specifically described below with reference to the drawings. Reference numeral 1 denotes a unit tile of the present invention, which has a structure such that it is attached to a wall surface 3 of a building by using an adhesive means 4 such as cement mortar or an adhesive. In this construction, the unit tiles 1 are treated as if they were a single tile, and are attached.
Work efficiency is significantly improved as compared with the case where individual pieces are attached.

Hereinafter, the structure of the unit tile 1 of the present invention will be described in more detail. The tile piece 10 has a front surface 11 on which a face is directly applied and a back surface 12 on the opposite surface.
And The back surface 12 of the tile piece 10 is provided with a back leg 13 for firmly bonding to the bonding means 4. Since the back leg 13 is intended to make the entire surface uneven, so as to encourage biting into the bonding means 4, the rib 13 is strictly referred to as the rib portion 13a. It is a general term for the concave-convex shape of the groove 13b which is formed in a groove shape by the rib-like portion 13a relative to the portion 13a. The side portion of the rib portion 13a has a so-called undercut 13c in which a portion near the bottom of the groove portion 13b is inwardly inclined inward as shown in an enlarged manner in FIGS. With such a configuration, at the time of construction, the bonding means 4 is also filled in the portion of the undercut 13c, and the bonding of the tile pieces 10 is performed more firmly and reliably.

[0014] The connecting member 1 which is a characteristic member of the present invention.
5 is attached to the back surface 12 of the tile piece 10. First, in the basic embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a connecting material receiving portion 16 is formed in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the rib-shaped portion 13a is formed on the rib-shaped portion 13a of the back leg 13, and a string-shaped Of the connecting member 15a.
a (15) and the tile piece 10 are fixed by an adhesive 17 as an example. As a result, the connecting members 15a
(15) is attached to the connecting member receiving portion 16 in a state where it is inserted into the connecting member receiving portion 16, and does not protrude from the ridge position substantially determined by the bonding upper surface of the rib-like portion 13a on the back leg 13. The string-like connecting material 15a may be formed by twisting or knitting a natural fiber or a chemical fiber, or a metal or plastic twisted string, a knitted string, or a single wire as a material.

In order to apply the unit tile 1 in this manner, the bonding means 4 is applied to a portion constituting the wall 3 in accordance with a conventional method, and then the unit tile 1 is applied.
The bonding is performed with the connecting member 15 left as it is. At this time, since the respective tile pieces 10 are connected in an aligned state by the connecting material 15, the wall surface is constructed in such a manner that a plurality of tile pieces 10 handle one tile.

The present invention is based on one basic technical concept of the above-described embodiment, and the following modifications are conceivable.

In this case, when the tile piece 10 has the groove portion 13b in the longitudinal direction, the mesh-like connecting material 15b can be applied only by providing the connecting material receiving portion 16 which crosses the rib-like portion 13a at a right angle. Of course, as the net-like connecting material 15b, FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3 (c), a diamond-shaped mesh can be used. In this case, these can be received with respect to the back surface 13 of the back surface 12 of the tile piece 10,
In addition, the connecting member receiving portion 16 is configured such that the connecting member 15 can be fitted in a state where the connecting member 15 does not protrude from the back surface of the back surface 12. Note that the string-like connecting member 15a does not necessarily have to be a round string as shown in the figure, and a flat braided string or the like can be used as appropriate. Also, a string-like connecting material 15a
The point is that the adjacent tile pieces 10 only need to be connected to each other, and therefore, as shown in FIG.

Further, the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 (b) is a device for more easily and surely filling the groove 13b or the undercut 13c on the back surface 12 of the tile piece 10 with the bonding means 4. It has been done.
That is, the contrivance may be either the string-shaped connecting member 15a or the mesh-shaped connecting member 15b. However, at least the groove 13b in the back leg 13 is further engraved so that the connecting member 15 can be accommodated. 16 is formed.

Further, the embodiment shown in FIG.
