Abstract

The present invention encompasses a wall-related construction element (1 ), with one or more ducts or raceways (2, 2') integrated in the construction element, said construction element being structured with, in any event, one outer or inner panel-shaped wall portion (3, 4) and with, oriented to or between two of these wall portions, a frame construction (5), adapted for fixedly supporting the wall portions, with supports (5a) intended for supporting the wall portion or the wall portions, and where said duct (2) and/or ducts (2, 2') can be given a width ('b') associating to the width of the frame construction (5) and where said duct (2) is formed with, in any event, two opposing side portions, serving as duct-related wall or side portions (21, 22), with an upper portion (23), a roof portion, and with a lower portion (24), a bottom portion. Two duct-related side portions (21, 22) are, in association with lower allocated side portion sections (21a, 22a), given a slightly narrower formation than the rest of the side portions (21, 22). A duct-allocated bottom portion (24) is adapted to extend between said side portion sections (21a, 22a) while opposing side portions (21, 22) are dimensioned to pass said upper roof portion (23). The invention also encompasses a duct arrangement.

Abstract

The present invention encompasses a method, on a building site, of forming a stable and, in terms of weight, heavy modular unit under the utilisation of prefabricated, in terms of weight considerably lighter, modular unit (12) transported to the building site, where said heavy modular unit (12a) can be adapted to serve as a complete modular-built cellar unit. Said modular unit displays a base slab (14) and double-walled wall sections (10, 11) anchored to the base slab. Inner and outer wall portions (10, 11) are mutually coordinated and secured to one another via supports (18) oriented within a free space formed and structured between the wall portions. The free space is completely filled with a concrete mass, which is caused to cure or set, in order in such instance to form the in terms of weight heavy modular unit. The present invention also discloses a heavy modular unit thus produced.

Abstract

The present invention encompasses a process for initially combining and thereafter uniting two or more modular units (1A, 1B, 1C) to one another in order thus combined to be able to form a house body (1 ), for instance a cellar-adapted house body. A liquid-resistant layer is advantageously wholly or partly to be able to cover a base slab and in any event lower wall sections allocated to the wall portion, proximal the base slab, in order principally to prevent damp permeation. A first modular unit (1 B), with in any event a first open wall portion, is placed on a substrate prepared within a building site, a second modular unit (1 C), with in any event a second open wall portion, is placed on said substrate prepared within the building site, so that an open wall portion allocated to the first modular unit (1 B) will connect to an open wall portion allocated to the second modular unit (1 C). The base slab of the one modular unit (1 B) and the base slab of the second module (1 C) form a free space (10, 20) defined by the mutually facing edge extents of the base slabs. The base slab of the one modular unit (1B) is connected, with the aid of tractive force absorbing means, to the base slab of the second module (1C) over said free space (10, 20) and that the free space is filled with concrete or the like. The present invention also encompasses a house body thud produced.

Abstract

The present invention encompasses a construction element formed as a wall portion ('B') with one or more ducts integrated in the construction element, where a first such duct (112') can be adaptable for and intended for air exchange, by permitting the passage therethrough of an air current, and/or where a second such duct (122') can be adaptable for and intended for a raceway or cable conduit, by permitting the passage therethrough of one or more optical and/or electrical cables and/or the like. Said construction element ('B') is structured with outer panel-shaped wall portions (3, 4) and with a frame construction oriented between these wall portions and adapted for fixedly supporting the wall portions. The duct (112') is adapted to be able to extend along the construction or wall element ('B') and be oriented close to its one, such as its inner, wall portion (4). Said duct (112') is adapted to terminate at its distal and open end section, either in association with the diverging short ends ('B6A') of the wall portion or in association with a roof portion and/or bottom portion allocated an element, where said termination is adapted to take place either in association with a terminal box (112) coordinable with the open end of the duct or with a coupling box or piece.

The present invention encompasses a transporting arrangement intended for the displacement of a number of coordinated platform sets and/or platform segments (1A), under the utilisation of first means (M1), adapted so as to impart to its allocated platform set or platform segment (A1) a stepwise displacement movement. Said platform set and/or platform segments are adapted to rest against sliding surfaces (55, 55c) oriented in the selected displacement direction, while parallel oriented draw and/or push rods allocated to the means (M1) are to be oriented adjacent and/or between said sliding surfaces (55, 55a, 55b).

Abstract

The present invention encompasses a method and an elastic, and/or formabIe and/or foldable, hose portion (3), adapted, to form a seal (4) of a gap (S), formed between two surface sections (1, 2), between two construction details or units (A, B). One construction detail (A) displays a first surface section (1), faceable towards the second construction detail (B), while the second construction detail (B) displays a second surface section (2), faceable towards the first construction detail. The method discloses: a. placing an elastic, and/or formable and/or foldable hose portion (3) with an inner channel (31) within a gap-shaped space ('S'), formed between said first (1) and second (2) surface sections, b. filling said inner channel (3'), provided for the hose portion (3), from its one open end section (3e) towards its divergent other open end section (3f), with a viscous filler material (6) and c. causing said viscous filler material (6) to stabilise, to a set and/or to form a hard 'means strand' (6a) as a hose arrangement ((3)).

Abstract

The present invention encompasses primarily a transport system (T) which is adapted to be able to offer a sequential assembly of a plurality of house bodies (5, 6, 8, 8'), structured in accordance with the 'assembly line principle', by making for the positioning, on a prefabricated floor element (2), of modules, construction units, construction parts etc. and under the utilisation of a movably ('D1') disposed sets of platforms, for supporting one or more floor elements (2, (2)) for one or more house bodies, said sets of platforms being, by displacement means (T), movably disposed in at least two directions oriented towards or opposite one another, where a first direction ('D1') is given first sets of platforms and a second direction ('D2') is given second sets of platforms. On a selected number of platform segments (A6, A7) included in said platform (IA), there are manufactured or positioned one or more floor elements (2) and according, as it or they (2, (2)) are displaced in said first direction ('D1'), there are applied to these floor elements modules, construction units, construction parts etc. When the displacement distance of the first direction ('D1') is completed, a coordinated number of platform segments ((A2-A4); (A6, A7, A8)) are displaced ('D3' and ('D3')) over so as to be included in the second sets of platforms and are there given a second displacement direction (D2'), and during this transport the house bodies are further supplemented to finished product.
