Abstract
Abstract A fabricated house panel improved so as to make the fabrication convenient, has a screw shaft projectable from the surface where two panels are put together, and a bushing member couplable by the screw shaft, with the coupling parts being provided inside of the panel, to thereby maintain the fine outer appearance of the panel. Further, the panels are coupled by a screw shaft extending along the coupling direction of the panels, which results in the increase of the coupling power and the resistance against an external force applied from a side direction.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
204 words
A fabricated house panel comprising: a board member having a hole formed in a front face thereof; a bushing member having a female screw therein and provided in an internal portion of one side of said board member and having one end exposed to a side edge of said board member; a hollow cylinder having an end portion thereof provided with a female screw, and provided in an internal portion of another side edge of said board member so as to be exposed to said another side edge of said board member; a movable coupling member provided within said hollow cylinder and including a screw shaft arranged to be coupled into the female screw of said hollow cylinder so as to protrude outside of said board member and also including a movable member integrally coupled with the screw shaft so as to move therewith inside of said hollow cylinder; and a static tightening member including a static member inserted into said movable member so as to rotate together therewith and also including a gear integrally connected with the static member and supported to be slipped into one end of said hollow cylinder and exposed to the outside via the hole of said board member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
204 words
A fabricated house panel comprising: a board member having a hole formed in a front face thereof; a bushing member having a female screw therein and provided in an internal portion of one side of said board member and having one end exposed to a side edge of said board member; a hollow cylinder having an end portion thereof provided with a female screw, and provided in an internal portion of another side edge of said board member so as to be exposed to said another side edge of said board member; a movable coupling member provided within said hollow cylinder and including a screw shaft arranged to be coupled into the female screw of said hollow cylinder so as to protrude outside of said board member and also including a movable member integrally coupled with the screw shaft so as to move therewith inside of said hollow cylinder; and a static tightening member including a static member inserted into said movable member so as to rotate together therewith and also including a gear integrally connected with the static member and supported to be slipped into one end of said hollow cylinder and exposed to the outside via the hole of said board member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words

Claim 7
Dependent Claim
36 words
A fabricated house panel according to claim 1, wherein an adiabatic material fills up an internal space of said board member except where said bushing member, said hollow cylinder, and said static tightening member are provided.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
225 words
A fabricated house panel comprising: a board member having a hole formed in a front face thereof; a bushing member having a female screw and installed in an internal portion of one side of said member board and having one end thereof exposed to one side edge of said board member; a hollow cylinder having at one end a female screw and being installed in an internal portion of another side of said board member so as to be exposed to another side of said board member; a movable coupling member provided within said hollow cylinder and including a screw shaft coupled with the female screw of said hollow cylinder so as to protrude to the outside of said board member and also including a movable member integrally coupled with the screw shaft so as to move therewith within said hollow cylinder; a static tightening member including a static member coupled with the movable member so as to rotate together therewith and also including a first gear integrally coupled with the static member and supported so as to abut an inner end of said hollow cylinder; and a tightening member including a second gear which meshes with said first gear of said static tightening member and a rotating member coaxially formed with the second gear and fixed within a hole provided in said board member.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
225 words
