Definitions

• thermoinsulating inserts thermoinsulating inserts
• This invention relates to a method for forming gypsum structural elements by using thermoinsulating inserts to be used in the building industry, especially in housing.
• This invention relates also to a mold for manufacturing structural elements, especially gypsum structural elements having thermoinsulating inserts.
• THERMODOM Another solution is the system known as "THERMODOM", according to which elements made of foamed polystyrene are used as a cladding on a ferrocon- crete construction.
• This system needs the expensive protection for a fa ⁇ ade and for an outside plaster.
• the inner as the outer surface of any wall made in this system is very sensitive to mechanical strokes of inconsiderable power, and any actions in order to hang even light household means on a wall made by this tech ⁇ nique are extremely troublesome.
• devices for forming concrete, slag, and saw dust concrete structural elements having inner hollows shaped by rigid inserts disassembled be ⁇ fore dismounting a moid, provided with mechanisms for consolidating a raw mate- rial supplied into the form.
• Similar devices are used for forming gypsum structural elements by filling with gypsum slurry watertight molds provided as well with all kinds of dismountable inner inserts that copy outer and inner shapes of those ele ⁇ ments.
• Side walls of the boxes of those molds have rigid, hinge connections with a mold basis, located near the lower edges of the sides, and rigid, mechanical or hy ⁇ draulic locks at upper parts of those molds.
• the characteristic feature of the gypsum slurry setting process is its volume increase, what results in occurring great forces deforming the rigid mold structure.
• Another feature of forming gypsum elements is the necessity of using reusable in- serts, the cross-section of which decreases in direction from a mold basis, and which are designed for forming inner shapes of hollows in those elements, generally pro ⁇ vided for filling them with insulating materials while erecting walls.
• thermoinsulating material shaped as an insert lost during production, that means while manufacturing said structural element.
• a method for manufacturing gypsum structural elements comprises filling with gypsum slurry a mold, a component of which before filling is a thermoinsulating fill shaped as an insert defining a component of a gyp ⁇ sum structural element after gypsum slurry setting process (at least initial setting) is finished, whereas one uses a one- or multi-part insert having any selected outer shapes, advantageously provided with openings.
• Said at least initial setting should be understood as such an advancement of the setting process, that a shaped gypsum structural element can be removed from its mold without disturbing its structure, especially without possibilities to disturb the connection between material defining said insert and gypsum surrounding par ⁇ tially or entirely said insert.
• a solution according to the invention while allowing to eliminate inner com ⁇ ponents of a mold for casting gypsum structural elements, makes it possible to sub- stantially decrease costs needed for manufacturing and maintaining molds, espe ⁇ cially to reduce costs connected with cleaning and smearing inner parts of molds.
• a method according to the present invention makes it possible to obtain structural elements for erecting outer walls which do not require using additional means and techniques for protecting said walls from the cold, generally going to ⁇ gether with wet processes increasing the time for realization of such objects.
• thermoinsulating inserts By using disposable lost thermoinsulating inserts according to the present invention the application of repeatedly used inserts, made of metal, plastic and so on, as components of molds has been eliminated. Moreover, said thermoinsulating inserts used as a filling in a gypsum structural element, obtained by a method ac ⁇ cording to the present invention, eliminate entirely a need to protect monolithic walls made of them from the cold. It decreases substantially the labor consumption while manufacturing gypsum structural elements and while erecting walls of them.
• thermoinsulating insert inside a warm gypsum wall is the simplest and cheapest way to achieve outer walls and floors having the excellent heat and sound insulating power at sufficient mechanical strength of the fa ⁇ ade of the building, protected only by means of a hydrophobic paint designed for the outside, and by other paints inside after floating wall surfaces with gypsum putty without a need to plaster inner and outer surfaces.
• a mold for manufacturing structural elements, especially gypsum ones hav ⁇ ing thermoinsulating inserts, that is formed as a multichamber box comprised of a basis, two side walls, hinged in relation to longer basis edges, two headwalls, as well as inner partitions dividing said mold into individual chambers, in addition pro- vided with locking and positioning means, is characterized according to the inven ⁇ tion by that inner surfaces of side walls are lined with plane-parallel flexible and compressible separator on which abut dismountable rigid lining tiles determining distances between particular inner partitions and headwalls, whereas an inner basis surface is lined with replaceable, plane-parallel and incompressible liner made of a material not adhering to gypsum slurry.
• a separator advantageously made of rubber, is at its parts extending beyond headwalls pressed against side walls by means of stops permanently connected to said side walls, on which headwalls are supported.
• Brackets are fastened to an outer lower surface of a basis. Ends of said brackets extending beyond the basis have hinges provided with elastic articulated joints having carrier arms extending from them and connected permanently to side walls.
• retaining sockets having a pull rod removable in them, and slidable in a abutment link, one of the ends of this pull rod is provided with an elastic head connected to one of the side walls, and at an ⁇ other of its ends there is located a self-locking and articulated separable locking mechanism engaged with another of side walls.
• a washer advantageously a flexible one.
• thermoinsulating inserts made of flexible material e.g. inserts of foamed polystyrene, as elements lost during forming phase, but being flexible elements of a mold before filling
• a design of a mold according to the present invention enables to eliminate technical difficulties while forming gypsum structural elements, to lower the pro ⁇ duction costs, and to increase productivity when manufacturing said elements, as well as to substantially decrease costs of erecting gypsum-concrete walls comprised of these elements.

The same function of connecting outer layers 9 and 10 of the second wall has a gypsum link defined in the through opening 8 in the insert 2 be ⁇ longing to the structural element B. It should be noted too that while manufacturing the structural element B the channel 7 in the insert 2 is not filled with gypsum slurry because that channel is designed to guard the vertical constructional corner column
