Abstract:
An improved insulating block that offers great structural strength by having an interconnected block material structure with cavities filled with insulating material. The paths from the front face to the back face of the block through the block material are adapted to ensure an improved thermal insulation of the block, while providing a high load bearing capacity and allowing continuation of longitudinal reinforcement. This results in a block that can be easily manipulated and handled. Furthermore, the invention provides a method of manufacturing and a use of said blocks, and a wall or structure of said blocks.

Claim (Index 24):
An improved insulating block comprising a block body whereby the block body is made of a block material and comprises a top face, a bottom face, a front face, a back face, two side faces and at least one cavity, preferably at least two cavities, whereby the back face is parallel to the front face, whereby said cavity extends from the top face to the bottom face and comprises a first thermally insulating material, whereby the front face and the back face are both substantially made of the block material, and are connected to each other by the block material, whereby a shortest path from the front face to the back face through only the block material is always longer, preferably at least 20% longer, than the front face is distanced from the back face for providing thermal insulation between the front face and the back face and for increasing strength between the bottom face and the top face, wherein the block material represents less than 42% of the volume of a convex hull of the block body, preferably less than 40%, more preferably less than 35%, and whereby the block body has a substantially constant material cross section parallel to the bottom face over the entire height of the block body.
