Abstract
A magnesium-oxide wall tile for use in a modular wall system includes a plurality of layers. The plurality of layers includes an inner core comprising magnesium-oxide and having a length and a height and a front face and a back face. The plurality of layers also includes a thermofoil layer disposed over at least one face of the inner core.
Claims22
A magnesium-oxide wall tile for use in a prefabricated wall system, comprising:
- a plurality of layers, comprising:
- an inner core comprising magnesium-oxide and having a length and a height and a front face and a back face, the inner core comprising four edges, wherein at least two of the four edges of the inner core include a chamfer extending from the back face, configured to align the magnesium-oxide wall tile to the prefabricated wall system;
- an intermediate layer disposed on the inner core;
- a thermofoil layer disposed over the front face and the four edges of the inner core, wherein the thermofoil layer does not extend over the back face of the inner core;
- and
- an attachment protrusion affixed to a back face of the magnesium-oxide wall tile, wherein the attachment protrusion is positioned at a top portion of the magnesium-oxide wall tile and extends away from the back face in a non-parallel direction.

A prefabricated wall system, comprising:
- a magnesium-oxide wall tile comprising:
- an inner core comprising magnesium-oxide, the inner core comprising at least two edges, wherein each of the at least two edges includes a chamfer;
- a thermofoil layer disposed over at least one side of the inner core;
- and
- an attachment protrusion affixed to a back face of the magnesium-oxide wall tile, wherein the attachment protrusion is positioned at a top portion of the magnesium-oxide wall tile and extends away from the back face in a non-parallel direction;
- a vertical structural component;
- a horizontal structural component affixed to the vertical structural component;
- and
- a connection component configured to engage with the attachment protrusion of the magnesium-oxide wall tile, wherein:
- the connection component is positioned on the horizontal structural component for removably hanging of the magnesium-oxide wall tile to the horizontal structural component;
- and
- the connection component comprises a corresponding angled surface to contact the chamfer of one of the at least two edges, wherein the corresponding angled surface aligns the magnesium-oxide wall tile to the prefabricated wall system.
