Description

METHOD OF ADHERING DECORATIVE MASONRY TO A WORK SURFACE
CROSS REFERENCE TO A RELATED APPLICATION
This application relates to U.S. Patent Application Serial No. filed on even date
herewith and entitled "Adhesive Device" by Shomler et al. Said application and its
disclosure are hereby incorporated by reference.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This disclosure relates to the installation of decorative masonry by adhesive
attachment. Decorative masonry is a term used to describe brick veneers and ceramic
floor and wall tiles. It is also used to describe roofing tiles, interior and exterior brick,
false and natural stone and marble.
Interior masonry is attached to a work surface by a variety of glues, mastics,
cementatious mortar mixtures and the like. Roof masonry like clay tiles and slate are
applied with nails, staples, mortar or specialty fasteners. Mortar mixtures are long lasting
and fireproof but not flexible and slow to dry and cure. Many mortars require mixing
several ingredients for the best and most effective results. Mortars are also difficult to
level and usually require an elevated degree of skill to spread properly.
Not surprisingly then, others have experimented with alternatives to traditional
fastening devices for attaching construction materials to a work surface.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
United States Patent 4,038,120 to Russell describes the use of an energized
heating element or wire to heat a hot melt glue resulting in adhesion between contiguously assembled panels. The reference method involves heating a glue-coated
wire to liquefy the glue producing a cohesive state and facilitating the assembly of panels.
This method is particularly useful for introducing a cohesive material (glue) to an area of
limited accessibility (groove), but the heating element (wire) requires the direct
application of energy (electricity) to provide the heat to melt glue.
United States Patent 3,574,031 to Heller et al. describes a method and material
for welding thermoplastic bodies by using a susceptor between the bodies to be joined.
The susceptor sealant is characterized by having particles, heatable by induction,
dielectric or radiant energy, dispersed in a thermoplastic carrier compatible with the
thermoplastic sheets to be welded. The welding of the thermoplastic sheets is effected by
exposing the susceptor sealant to heat energy, softening the carrier material and joining
all thermoplastic materials.
United States Patent 3,996,402 to Sindt relates to the assembly of sheet materials
by the use of a fastening device utilizing an apertured sheet of eddy current-conducting
material sandwiched between coatings of hot-melt glue. An induction heating system is
activated causing eddy current heating in the EC-conducting material with consequent
melting of the hot-melt glue thus resulting in fusion and, ultimately, bonding of the sheet
materials in accordance with the desired construction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The presently disclosed method of adhering decorative masonry to a work surface
is distinguished from, and improves upon, the prior art by utilizing a device to be placed
between the attaching surface of the decorative masonry and the work surface which comprises a target element contiguous with a heat activatable adhesive material said
target element being absorbent of electromagnetic waves which are convertible to heat
energy for activating the adhesive material, holding said surfaces together, and exposing
said device to electromagnetic waves to produce heat sufficient to activate the adhesive
material to effect an adhesive bond between the decorative masonry and the work surface.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Looking at the adhesive device employed in the disclosed method in greater
detail, we see that the target element must, for the most part, be fashioned from materials
or substances that are not transparent to electromagnetic waves. Indeed, the target
element will necessarily be constructed of a composition that will absorb electromagnetic
waves. Once absorbed by the target element, these waves will produce magnetic
hysteresis and eddy currents resulting in heat energy which will melt or activate the
contiguous adhesive material.
Typically, the target element will be fashioned from metallic materials such as
steel, aluminum, copper, nickel or amalgams thereof which have proven utility and are
readily available; although, some semi-metallic materials such as carbon and silicon are
also known to be suitable for the absorbtion of electromagnetic waves.
The target element can assume any form or shape consistent with the overall
configuration of the adhesive device. Frequently, the target element will be presented as
a metallic foil, mesh or strip, and, in some instances, it will be more effective to present
the target element in the form of a fiber, chip or flake of an electromagnetic absorbable
material. The point to be made is that the target element need only be fashioned from a material reasonably impervious to, and absorptive of, electromagnetic waves.
In use, the adhesive device needs to be situated between the decorative masonry
and the work surface. Typically, the decorative masonry will be brick, ceramic, clay
tile, natural stone or slate or any of a variety of composite materials. The work surface
for decorative masonry include particle board, OSB and plywood, waterproof cement
boards, waterproof dry walls and masonry.
As a practical matter, of course, the decorative masonry needs to be transparent to
electromagnetic waves. Some materials will be more transparent than others, and
empirical adjustments can and will be made to modulate the quantity and intensity of
electromagnetic wave energy needed to optimally activate the adhesive material.
In many instances, it will be sufficient for the adhesive device simply to be
placed between the decorative masonry and the work surface. In other construction or
assembly situations, it will be necessary to make some arrangements or take additional
steps to make sure the adhesive device remains in place prior to activation. Such an
additional step need be little more than introducing an additional attachment element such
as a small pressure sensitive adhesive area on the surface of the device . Simpler means
for positioning the device prior to activation might entail clamping, tacking, stapling,
spiking or even snap-fitting by slotting the decorative masonry and grooving the work
surface to make sure the adhesive device is situated and activated in the most effective
and, therefore, most desirable location. But these measures, of course, would be optional
procedures and in no way essential to the performance of the device in its broadest typical
and routine applications. When desirably situated between the decorative masonry and the work surface,
the adhesive device is ready to be exposed to electromagnetic waves , produced by and
emanating from a generator powered by a source of alternating electric current. The
generator can be held in a fixed position for assembly-line production or designed to be
manipulated so as to quickly and easily pass over, around or near the strategically
"hidden" device while emitting electromagnetic waves which will penetrate the
"transparent" decorative masonry, be absorbed by the target element, be converted to heat
energy, activate the adhesive material resulting in a bonded relationship between the
decorative masonry and the work surface.
To elaborate, somewhat, heat is produced in the conductive target element by two
mechanisms: eddy current resistive heating and magnetic hysteresis. Eddy current
resistive heating applies to all conductive materials and is produced in the target element
by the electromagnetic waves emanating from the generator. The heat resulting from
magnetic hysteresis is observed only in magnetic materials. As the electromagnetic field
produced by the generator reverses polarity, the magnetized atoms or molecules in the
target element also reverse. There is an energy loss in this reversal which is analogous to
friction: This energy loss is magnetic hysteresis. The "lost" energy is quickly converted
to heat and conducted by the target material to the contiguous, and frequently enveloping,
heat-activatable adhesive material to initiate adhesion.
When heated to the necessary temperature, the adhesive material will liquefy or
become heat-activated, attach itself to the work surface and, on cooling, create an
adhesive relationship between the decorative masonry and the work surface. Two adhesion mechanisms, hot-melt and heat-activated cure, are proposed for use
with the disclosed device. Both mechanisms are initiated by heat emanating from the
target element. Hot-melt adhesives are solid at ambient temperatures, but melt or liquefy
when the temperature is elevated by, for instance, heat accumulating in the target
element. The melted adhesive "wets" the adherends and, in the case of porous or fibrous
adherends, penetrates the surface of the pieces to be bonded. As the adhesive cools, the
adherends and adhesive are bonded by the electrostatic attraction of polar molecular
groups. In the case of porous or fibrous adherends, mechanical interlocking can
contribute to bond strength. Note that for the hot-melt mechanism, the bonding is
reversible. Thus by repeating the induction heating procedure, the bond can be undone
and the adherends separated. The ability to reverse the adhesion and separate fixed
decorative masonry is not a trivial attribute. In addition to the obvious advantage of
being able to reassemble or repair misaligned decorative masonry, it may also be
desirable to be able to disassemble affixed decorative masonry to facilitate serviceability
and repair.
Heat-activated curing adhesives are also solid and easy to manipulate at ambient
temperatures, but when the adhesive temperature is elevated by, for example, the heat
emanating from the target element, a chemical reaction is initiated. This reaction
involves a cure or crosslinked bonding either within the adhesive or between the
adherends. Such bonds are typically irreversible. Frequently, a heat-activated curing
adhesive bond will demonstrate an electrostatic attraction between the adhesive and the
adherends and a crosslinked bond within itself. While the foregoing is a complete description of the disclosed method, numerous
variations and modifications may also be employed to implement the purpose of the
invention. And, therefore, the elaboration provided should not be assumed to limit the
scope of the invention which is intended to be defined by the appended claims.
