Abstract

A wood wall construction made of wooden beams is provided wherein the wooden beams ( 1 ) are superposed or possibly juxtaposed and assembled by means of screws ( 2 ). The wooden beams ( 1 ) are assembled to each other using the screws ( 2 ) provided at the end sections thereof with threaded sections ( 3,4 ) that are inserted without drilling from the top or bottom surface of the wooden beams to assemble a mutual attachment area ( 5 ) of the two wooden beams. The screws extend for only a part (A) of a height or thickness of the beam ( 1 ) and are engaged only adjacent to the mutual attachment area ( 5 ) in the two wooden beams.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A wood wall construction made from wooden beams, comprising the wooden beams are superposed or juxtaposed and assembled using screws, which are screwed from an upper or a lower side of two wooden beams into a mutual attachment area bridging the two wooden beams and which extend only over a part of a height or thickness of each of the wooden beams, the wooden beams ( 1 ) are connected to one another by the screws ( 2 ) which are provided with threaded sections ( 3 ,  4 ) at least at both end sections thereof, with the screws being screwed-in without pre-drilling and which engage only immediately adjacent to a mutual attachment area ( 5 ) of the two wooden beams ( 1 ), with a length (C) of the screws ( 2 ) being smaller than a height (B) of one of the wooden beams ( 1 ).  
   
   
       2 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein the screws ( 2 ) extend approximately equally far into the adjacent contacting wooden beams ( 1 ) on both sides of the mutual attachment area ( 5 ).  
   
   
       3 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein at least two screws ( 2 ) are screwed into the mutual attachment area ( 5 ) of the two wooden beams ( 1 ) which are spaced apart from one another and aligned generally parallel to one another.  
   
   
       4 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein the screws ( 2 ) are provided with a thread over an entire length of a shaft thereof.  
   
   
       5 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein the screws ( 2 ) are provided with an interior tool grip ( 6 ) at one end thereof, with a diameter of a section of the screws ( 2 ) surrounding the interior tool grip ( 6 ) being approximately equal in size or slightly larger than an outside diameter of the thread.  
   
   
       6 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein the screws ( 2 ) are located at edge regions of a strip-shaped sealing material arranged or inserted between the wooden beams ( 1 ) in the mutual attachment area ( 5 ).  
   
   
       7 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein the screws ( 2 ) are screwed-in perpendicularly in reference to a longitudinal extension of the wooden beams ( 1 ).  
   
   
       8 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein the screws ( 2 ) are screwed-in at an acute angle in reference to a longitudinal extension of the wooden beams ( 1 ).  
   
   
       9 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein the screws ( 2 ) are screwed-in both perpendicular as well as at an acute angle in reference to a longitudinal extension of the wooden beams ( 1 ).  
   
   
       10 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 9 , wherein the screws are screwed in subsequently alternating positions.  
   
   
       11 . A wood wall construction according to  claim 1 , wherein the screws ( 2 ) are each screwed-in in pairs that cross one another at an acute angle in reference to one another and perpendicular to a longitudinal extension of the wooden beams ( 1 ).
