Abstract:
In particular embodiments, an on-site drywall fabrication system is configured to perform on-site construction of drywall (e.g., plasterboard, wallboard, gypsum panel, sheet rock, gypsum board, etc.) over at least a portion of a framed (e.g., studded) wall (e.g., comprising one or more substantially vertical studs). In particular embodiments, the on-site drywall fabrication system is configured to utilize one or more drywall installation robots to fabricate drywall substantially directly on a framed wall. Generally speaking, the on-site drywall fabrication system may be configured to generate a substantially continuous, seamless drywall panel that extends along a particular portion of a wall. The system may, for example, utilize one or more sprayers that are configured to spray a suitable fill material between a first wall material (e.g., a first wall material applied via the first wall material spool) and a second wall material.

Claim (Index 20):
A method of fabricating drywall substantially directly on a studded wall, the method comprising:\n providing a drywall installation robot comprising:\n a robot chassis comprising one or more wheels configured to support the on-site drywall fabrication robot adjacent a support surface and enable rolling movement of the on-site drywall fabrication robot across the support surface; \n one or more wall material spool supports; \n one or more rollers that correspond to each of the one or more wall material spool supports; \n a vertical motion platform; and \n one or more sprayers disposed on the vertical motion platform; \n selecting one or more suitable layer materials for use in the fabrication of the drywall; placing a wall material spool comprising each selected one or more suitable layer materials on a corresponding wall material spool support on the drywall installation robot; unspooling at least a portion of each wall material spool and running the spool along one or more corresponding rollers; affixing an end of one or more of the wall material spools to an anchor stud on the studded wall causing the drywall installation robot to traverse the studded wall such that each of the wall material spools unspools along the wall as the drywall installation robot traverses the studded wall; using the one or more sprayers on the drywall installation robot to spray a fill material between the wall material spools; optionally using a fastener applicator on the drywall installation robot to at least partially insert one or more fasteners into each stud of the wall such that the fill material is sprayed around the fastener and the fastener is fully disposed within the outer drywall layer; and allowing the fill material to dry until to produce finished drywall.
