Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to a brick for pipe laying and construction work using this, more specifically, it is a system that applies to a variety of pipe-fitting construction on the wall for the installation of water works, electricity, etc. that has simplified the mason and piping work substantially thus, has an effect of reducing the labor and material costs, etc., while preventing the danger of having wall crack during/after the construction.

[0003] 2. Background of the Related Art

[0004] In general, a brick is formed as a flat length-wise hexahedron, that a number of bricks are made to the wall laying them by intersecting each other or laminating them by facing each other. Such mason work that lays the bricks by intersecting requires an adhesive such as mortar that is a mixture of sand and cement to a certain ratio.

[0005] Also, the wall unit constructed such as above requires a variety of pipe work such as water work, electricity, telephone and communication wires. The pipe work can be carried out in a way that after finishing the mason work using a regular hexahedral brick, install the pipes by drilling on the brick wall. To perform this task, 4.about.5 workers have to work several days using hammer, drill, chisel, etc.

[0006] However, such method requires a lot of labor work which results in high labor cost, and due to dust created when drilling, it requires additional vacuum to sock in dust to provide more workable environment, it can also cause crack on the wall from the vibration while drilling after completing the construction work as well as delay the intended construction period due to too much manual work involved. Another method of installing the pipes witch involves the installation of pipes prior to mason work presents other sets of problems. The pipe using this method cannot be fixed securely as it is done in an open space thus, difficult to locate the right place specified in the drawing, not to mention the difficulty in laying the bricks around them after finishing the installation. This requires the workers to be extra careful which in turn, delays the overall construction time.

[0007] As illustrated in FIG. 1a, in case of pipe installation that connects hot/cold water pipes to the water dwelling, an iron reinforcing rod (102) is erected at the location of water dwelling (101) to fix the water dwelling (101) and lay 0.5b brick wall (103) on it then, connect the pipe (104) to the water dwelling (101) and finish the work by filling the empty space with cement or mortar.

[0008] Also, as illustrated in FIG. 1b, there was also a method that the upper part is formed with 0.5b mason wall (103) and the lower part is formed with 1.0b mason wall (103a), however, the pipe (104) which is coated is induced to the interior of wall unit, and connect the water dwelling (101) to the iron reinforcement rod (102) then, take the coat of pipe (104) off and connect to the water dwelling (101) and fill the gap at the entrance.

[0009] Also, as illustrated in FIG. 1c, the upper part is formed with 0.5b mason wall (103) and the lower part is formed with 1.0b mason wall (103a) then operate the piping work in accordance to the method illustrated in FIG. 1b.

[0010] However, when the construction work is carried out by the methods specified in 1a, 1b, 1c, there used to be a number of incidents where bricks got collapsed, and because the construction work was complicated, it required extra expenditure in terms of labor cost, time and material cost.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0011] The present invention is designed to solve the said problems and by installing the bricks to the right places with the bricks formed with pipe entrance at the side and bricks formed with pipe groove that has been induced, it eliminates a series of drilling work by the workers thus, saves the labor cost and the construction time; it does not create dust during the construction work so it is more pleasant to carry out the work; it not only prevents the occurrence of cracks on the wall owing to no vibration but also reduces the chances of making mistakes and carry out the construction work more precisely following the specified drawings.

[0012] Also, the present invention is aimed to provide an installation method by the use of pipe brick that has the following characteristics: it is comprised of a mason work step where a pipe brick formed with pipe entrance on one side and pipe wall formed with pipe groove formed with multi-level on one side are located horizontally and vertically to form the path for the pipe to go through the said pipe entrance and pipe groove, and laid together with standard bricks of rectangular haxadron; a cutting step to form the incision part to the size of filling-up box so that it enables the installation of filling-up box inside of pipe entrance of said pipe brick; a fixing step that fixes the filling-up box to the interior of pipe wall through above precision part by filling up; a pipe connection step that installs pipe to be induced to the pipe entrances of pipe wall and pipe groove of pipe wall and connects pipe to above filling up box; a gap filling step that finishes the work by filling the empty space of incision part where the pipe wall installed with pipe and incision parts of pipe wall which is installed with filling up box with cement and mortar.

[0030] The brick for pipe laying of the present invention is in a rectangular-hexadron shape that is designed to make it easy for the pipe to go in and out of the body of pipe by forming the pipe entrance or pipe groove, it is installed between the standard bricks during mason work but at the path of piping. Also, for the pipe construction of pre-existing old building, it can be used by demolishing the original bricks then, install the bricks of present invention between them so that it could guide the pipe;

[0031] Therefore, in comparison to the piping work by drilling the existing wall or laying the bricks after installing pipes this method can reduce substantially the work load of construction and the overall expenditure that is associated with it such as labor cost or material cost and also reduces the required working hours that can bring forward the completion schedule of construction.

[0032] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the brick for pipe laying of the present invention which is in a rectangular hexadron shape is comprised of a body (10) that fills to the right place where the pipe passes; a pipe entrance (20) which is formed to go through one side of above body (10); which is installed for the pipe (30) to go through the said pipe entrance (20) so that it provides an easy pipe construction environment.

[0033] The above body is formed in a rectangular hexadron shape, the same as the regular bricks. Mass production of above body (10) with standard size is possible, and in order to be compatible with the standard bricks, it is ideal to form them with the size of length (a) * width (b) * thickness (c) of 255 mm * 90 mm * 124 mm respectively. Thus, lay 4 standard bricks on the length (a) direction and applies adhesive such as mortar to fill the gap then, the length is identical to the regular bricks that it can carry out the mason work more precisely and conveniently. However, it can also be interchanged with the conventional bricks with the size of 210 mm * 100 mm * 60 mm or a variety of other exterior structure of building construction as well.

[0034] Also, as illustrated in FIG. 4a, it can be used by forming the length (a) of body (10) approximately to the half. Therefore, when constructing the pipes by seperating them that have different use, it is efficient to connect two halved body and use them.

[0035] The above pipe entrance (20) is formed by going through the side of above body (10). It is ideal to form the pipe entrance's (20) upper and lower part to an arch shape to enhance the destructive power of block itself. The pipe entrance (20) has to be formed by distancing it at least 25 mm from the upper and lower part of above body (10). That is, in case the length (a) of above body (10) is 255 mm, the length (d) of pipe entrance (20) should be 205 after leaving 25 mm each to distance it from upper and lower part of body (10) so that it does not break due to the heavy load of brick.

[0036] Also, the pipe entrance (20) is ideal to be formed by distancing it at least 25 mm from the left and right of above body (10). That is, in case the width (b) of above body (10) is 90 mm, the width (e) of pipe entrance (20) should be 40 mm after leaving 25 mm each to distance it from the left and right so that it prevents the breaking due to the heavy load of block.

[0037] The pipe entrance (20) is formed to allow all kinds of pipes (30) such as water pipe, electric pipe, communicational pipe, etc to go in and out easily, so it is constructed, through the side of exterior wall that is completed with the mason work, for the pipes to reach the destination easily.

[0038] As illustrated in FIG. 3, by placing the brick for pipe laying of present invention in a row, it can be used efficiency on the pipe (30) that passes horizontally. Between blocks, an adhesive (31) such as mortar is used which is the same as the conventional method.
