Definitions

  • Plasterboard also referred to as drywall, gypsum board or sheetrock (proprietary name of United States Gypsum Company) has become a common standard material for interior walls and ceilings in modem buildings. Plasterboard is made primarily from gypsum plaster, the semi-hydrous form of calcium sulphate (CaSO 4 - 1 Z-H 2 O), typically mixed with additives such as fiber and mildew and fire resistance agents, which is sandwiched between two sheets of heavy paper or fiberglass mats. When the core sets and is dried, the sandwich becomes rigid and strong.
  • gypsum plaster the semi-hydrous form of calcium sulphate (CaSO 4 - 1 Z-H 2 O)
  • additives such as fiber and mildew and fire resistance agents
  • plasterboards It is easy to cut the plasterboards and make holes through them, e.g. for cords and pipes that have to cross the walls or ceilings being formed by the boards.
  • Methods for repairing plasterboard constructions typically involve use of a joint compound (sometimes referred to as "mud") which is supplied as a powder for mixing with water or ready-to-use wet paste.
  • mud joint compound
  • Such compound is also used for sealing and finishing joints between adjacent plasterboards in a wall structure. Larger holes require cutting even edges around the hole and fastening therein a suitably cut-out plasterboard piece.
  • joint material for filling cracks or holes can often be tedious as the material shrinks upon drying and several layers are often required which must be allowed to dry in between applications.
  • the invention provides a plug for repairing plasterboards, and particularly for sealing holes.
  • the plug has a substantially cylindrical shape with a longitudinal axis extending between a front end and a back end, and having a cylindrical side wall and a substantially circular cross-section across the longitudinal axis, the plug further having recesses on the side wall which recesses are either longitudinal or spiral around the cylindrical side walls.
  • Figure 1 shows a plug with longitudinal recesses.
  • Figures Ib, Ic and Id show the cross-section of plugs with a different number of recesses and differently dimensioned recesses.
  • Figure 2 a and b show repair plugs with spiraling recesses with a different pitch (different number of recesses per unit length of the plug).
  • Figure 3 shows repair plugs with vertical recesses dividing the plugs into segments.
  • Figure 4 shows a perspective view, side view and end view of one embodiment of the plug of the invention, with four longitudinal recesses and three vertical recesses dividing the plug into four segments.
  • Figure 5 shows end views of different sizes of plugs such as shown in Figure 3.
  • the plug of the invention comprises gypsum plaster or materially similar material (chalk or chalk-like material including in particular conventional gypsum plaster (hydrated calcium sulfate) but can also be from calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, magnesium silicate, etc.).
  • gypsum plaster or materially similar material e.g. gypsum plaster (hydrated calcium sulfate) but can also be from calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, magnesium silicate, etc.
  • the term 'chalk-like material' is used herein to describe solid, typically porous or semi-porous material, which can be readily filed or sanded down. Accordingly, the term also encompasses other material that fulfils this functional criterion, including but not limited to polymeric material, e.g. PVC-based polymer clay, cement material, and any mixtures of the aobve-mentioned materials.
  • the plug has a substantially cylindrical shape with a longitudinal axis extending between a front end 3 and a back end 4, and a cylindrical side wall 2 and a substantially circular cross-section across the longitudinal axis.
  • the plug further has recesses 5 on the side wall 2 which recesses are either longitudinal or spiral around the cylindrical side wall. These recesses 5 provide a filling space for joint material which is used for fastening the plug in the hole to be closed.
  • the recesses also aid in the insertion of a plug into a hole which is slightly smaller than the plug, as the plug can be twisted or screwed in the hole, thereby peeling off some of the outermost material in between the recesses is peeled/polished off and the plug sits snugly in the hole.
  • the recesses on the side wall are longitudinal these are typically at least four and can also be in the range of about 6 to 10. This can however depend on the diameter of the plug; wider plugs (e.g. in the range of 20 to 40 mm) can have a higher number of recesses, e.g. 2-4 recesses per cm of the outer circumference of the plug, forming a longitudinally striped pattern on the sidewall. Wider plugs can however as well have relatively few recesses, such as four, five or six.
  • the invention is not limited to certain particular dimensions of the recesses, the width of the recesses may typically depend to some extent on the diameter of the plug and typically the recesses have an outermost width 7 in the range of about 2 to 5 mm.
  • the recesses can lie relatively close to each other such that the section 8 of the circumference of the plug (in between adjacent recesses) can be about as wide as the recess width 7, or the section 8 can be slightly shorter than the recess width 7, or substantially wider than the recess width, as in the embodiments shown in Figure 5.
  • Figures lb-d show cross-sections of a few embodiments of the plug, with varying density of the recesses as well as varying depth 9, both as absolute depth and as relative depth compared to the recess width.
  • Figure 5 shows different embodiments of the longitudinal recesses. In these embodiments the recesses are relatively deep, thus forming a cross-shaped or star-shaped cross-section, depending on the number of recesses.
  • the plug has spiraling recesses, which spiral around the sidewall of the plug much like the thread of a screw. Similar to the longitudinal recesses described above, spiraling recesses can have varying depth and width, and can be arranged with varying pitch, i.e. how closely spaced the recesses are to each other. Figure 3 illustrates two examples of different pitch 11 on two different plugs of this type.
  • the repair plug described herein is shaped such that the depth of each recess is in the range of about 5-20% of the diameter of the plug, such as, e.g., in the range of about 5-15% or the rangeof 5-10%, including about 5% or about 7% or about 10% but also any value in the range of about 10-20% of the diameter of the plug, such as in the range of about 12-20%, for example, 12%, 15% or 17%.
  • the plug of the present invention is not limited to certain dimensions. It follows however, that it is most useful for holes that are larger than can be readily closed and finished with a single layer of joint material. Consequently, the plugs can be relatively small, having a diameter in the range of about 4-10 mm, and preferably in the range of 5-10 mm, such as about 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm or 10 mm. Plugs with a larger diameter can be even more useful, such as with a diameter in the range of about 10-40 mm, such as in the range of about 10-25 mm, including the range of about 10-20 mm.
  • the plugs are made even bigger, such as having a maximum cross section in the range of about 50-85 mm, e.g. havign a width of about 54, 74 or 84 mm.
  • Such plugs are however typically shorter and not segmented with vertical recesses, as their large width would make them difficult to break. These large plugs are useful for closing of unused holes in walls intended for electrical cicuitry, switches and the like.
  • Thes extra wide plugs can have a length of about e.g. 1 cm, 2 cm, 3 cm or 4 cm or another suitable length.
  • the plugs can be suitably offered in lengths roughly corresponding to the thickness of the boards to be repaired.
  • Plasterboards manufactured in accordance with the metric system can have a thickness such as 10, 12 or 15 mm, and frequently walls are made from two layers of board. Consequently, in certain embodiments the plugs have a length such as 10, 12, 14, 18, 20, 24 or 30 mm.
  • interior walls have a hollow space and thus when a hole is being repaired, the plug does not have to be flush with the inner surface of the plasterboard, as it is in those cases only the outer, visible surface of the board that should be flat, such that after the repaired area has been finished and painted, the spot is preferably nearly invisible.
  • the front end 3 is intended to be inserted first and is the end facing the inside of the wall after location of the plug, while the back end 4 is the end facing the outer, visible surface of the board.
  • the front end 3 preferably has a chamfer 6 to ease insertion of the plug.
  • the plug has one or more vertical recesses 10 that circumscribe the plug, dividing the plug into two or more segments 12, such as, e.g., 3, 4, 5 or 6 segments.
  • the segments can be broken off the remaining plug, one by one, or more than one segment at a time.
  • the length of each segment is consequently preferably such as any of the length values mentioned above, whereas the overall length of the plug in this embodiment is more, depending on the number of segments. If, for example, the segment length is 12 mm, one segment can be broken off for a suitable length to repair a single 12 mm plasterboard whereas two segments provide a plug of 24 mm, suitable for repair of a double-layered wall of two 12 mm plasterboards.
