Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide glass building material having patterns with solid sensation by drawing color pattern on the laminated faces of plural glass plates of the same or different thickness, and heating them at the specified temperature for the specified time to integrate them by fusing, thus forming a single glass plate. CONSTITUTION:Color patterns 2, 3 are drawn solidly with the change of depth using inorganic pigments on the overlapped faces of plural glass plates 1 of the same or different thickness. The glass plates 1 are then put in a furnace as they are overlapped, heated at 800-850 deg.C for about an hour, fused and bonded so as to be integrated, and left to cool naturally. Patterns are not damaged or exfoliated even in contact with other objects. Glass building material with solid patterns can be thereby mass-produced.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a patterned glass building material for the purpose of providing a colored pattern within the wall thickness and a method for producing the same.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally known pattern glass building materials are those in which a pattern is provided on the front surface or the back surface of plate glass, or molten glass materials of different colors are molded into a predetermined shape and then fused, and further BACKGROUND ART Glass crafts are known that are made into containers, animals and plants through procedures such as heating and molding.

Further, there is also known a stained glass in which large and small plate glasses having different colors and shapes are arranged in a mosaic shape and integrated.

[0004]

Among the above-mentioned conventional techniques, the plate glass having a pattern on the surface has no pattern depth, and the plate having a pattern on the back surface has a constant depth when viewed from the front side. There was a problem that only manifested the depth of.

Further, when the molten glass material is formed into a predetermined shape, it is often a single product or a handicraft product and is not suitable for mass production, and it is difficult for an industrial product to mass produce the same pattern. There was a problem.

Further, the stained glass is a pattern composed of a large number of mosaics, and does not have a color pattern within the wall thickness.

[0007]

However, the present invention succeeds in expressing an arbitrary color pattern within the wall thickness because a plurality of plate glasses having a pattern on the inner surface of at least one plate glass are superposed. I did.

That is, the invention of the product is a pattern glass building material characterized in that a color pattern is provided at a predetermined depth within the thickness of the glass plate, and the invention of another product is within the thickness of the glass plate. The patterned glass building material is characterized in that color patterns are provided at a plurality of positions having different depths.

Further, the invention of the method is such that a plurality of plate glasses having a predetermined size are superposed, a color pattern is provided on at least one superposed surface of the plate glass, and the superposed glass plate is heated at a high temperature to perform the superposition. A method for manufacturing a patterned glass building material characterized by melting and adhering a glass plate into a single glass plate, and the invention of another method is that the thickness of the glass plate used as the material is the same or different. Then, draw a color pattern using an inorganic pigment on the overlapping surface, put it in a furnace for overlapping and heat it for about 1 hour at 800 ° C to 850 ° C for about 1 hour, and make the laminated glass plate like a single plate. It is a manufacturing method for patterned glass building materials, which is characterized by melting and integrating.

The plate glass in the above is made by cutting a plate glass of a conventionally known material (for example, soda glass) into a predetermined shape. If it is cut into not only a rectangular shape but also a circular shape, an elliptical shape or the like, A pattern glass building material that conforms to the shape.

The glass building material can be used as various building materials such as tiles and other interior decorations or exterior wall exterior materials.

In addition to building materials, it can also be used as a part of a container, a decorative plate for furniture, a stationery (for example, a pen), a miscellaneous item, and other life-related products.

Further, since there is no particular limitation on the size, the outer shape and the thickness, it can be freely selected according to the application.

[0014]

Example 1 Patterns 2 and 3 are provided at different depth positions within the thickness of the plate glass 1, and an opaque layer 4 is provided on the back surface of the plate glass 1 to form a glass building material 5.

Although a rectangular glass plate is used in the above embodiment, the glass plate is not limited to the outer shape and is a transparent or translucent glass plate.

According to the above-mentioned embodiment, since the patterns 2 and 3 are located at different depths, when seen from a plane, a building material having a different pattern depth and a solid feeling can be obtained.

[0017]

Example 2 A square plate glass 6 having a thickness of 3 mm is divided into three equal parts,
Rectangular plate glasses 1a, 1b, 1c are provided, and a color pattern 2 is provided on the surface of the plate glass 1b (for example, printing).
Stack a and 1c. An opaque layer 4 is formed on the lower surface of the plate glass 1c.
(By inorganic pigment).

The laminated glass plate 10 of the plate glass 1a, 1b, 1c is put into the heating furnace 7 as it is, and the temperature is 800 ° C to 850 ° C.
The pattern glass building material 5 of the present invention can be obtained by heating for 60 minutes and naturally cooling. Reference numerals 8 and 9 in FIG. 3 denote printing rolls.
If the color pattern described above is printed using an ink made of a known inorganic pigment, a large amount of the same pattern can be provided without being affected by high temperature. It can be hand-painted if necessary.

Further, by applying an arbitrary glaze to the peripheral side walls of the laminated glass plates, the color can be expressed and the displacement of the laminated glass plates can be prevented.

Since the heating is for integrating the plate glasses 1a, 1b, 1c, the heating temperature and time are selected according to the material of the plate glass.

[0021]

According to the present invention, since the color pattern is provided within the wall thickness of the glass plate, there is an effect that the color pattern has a depth and becomes a weighted pattern building material. In addition to having the chemical resistance and weather resistance peculiar to glass, there are various effects such that the pattern is not damaged or peeled off even when it comes into contact with other objects.
