Abstract
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
Substantially rectangular panel lengths are preformed from metal or synthetic plastic sheet and include a plurality of troughs in spaced and parallel relationship with shaped side edge portions, one on each side of the panel. The side edge on one side includes a vertical portion, a horizontal portion extending outwardly therefrom at the upper side of the vertical portion and an angulated downturned lip or flange on the outer side of the horizontal portion. The other side edge includes a short vertical portion, an inwardly and upwardly extending portion extending from the upper edge of the vertical portion, a horizontal outer portion extending from the upper edge of the inwardly and upwardly extending portion, and a downturned vertical portion extending from the outer edge of the horizontal portion. The first edge of one panel engages over the second edge of the adjacent panel with the vertical portions in contact with one another. The panels are secured together through the vertical portions by blind rivets or other fastening means so that the horizontal portion and the downwardly and outwardly extending lip or flange of the first side edge overlies and shields the junction between adjacent panels without the necessity of sealing material. The panels nest one above the other in stacked relationship for storage and transportation purposes prior to assembly.

PREFORMED AND NESTABL~ PANELS FOR ROOFS, WALLS AND THE
LIKE
BACKGROUND OF TEIE INVENTION
This invention relates to new and useful improve-ments in preformed metal or synthetic plastic panels de-signed primarily for use in the formation of roofs or walls and the like.
Counter-curved corrugated panels are well known and when these are joined together, one edge corrugation overlaps the side edge of the adjacent panel and nut and bolt assemblies or rivets extend downwardly through the junctions to join the panels together. Because of the con-struction of such panels and because of the vertical secu-rement thereof, sealing materiaLs must be placed between the overlapping edges of the panels in order to prevent the ingress of moisture and the like either under the lip of the panel or through the apertures formed for the ver-tical fastening meansO
Furthermore, with the advent of other shaped panels, the counter-curved configuration is finding less favor and is being replaced by panels having a plurality of raised and depressed troughs with horizontal upper and lower portions. These not only take less material than ~ ~ !
' ' ' .
3~
counter-curved corrugated sheets,but also provide a more decora-tive and aesthetic structure. However, the formation of such panels presents some difficulty in joining adjacent panels together. If a standard overlap of one trough with the other is provided,then considerable waste material occurs because of the widths of the troughs in such structures.
Furthermore, said type of overlapping connections require vertical securement means once again leading to leakage and difficulty in sealing one between the other. Examples of such structures are shown in United States patent no: 3,323,268 and 3,320,711.
Another requirement for such panels is ease of stack-ing one upon the other for storage and transportation purposes and attempts nave been made to provide longitudinally extend-ing side edges on panels wnich engage with one another relative-ly efficiently, but due to the configuration thereof, are impos-sible to stack in interfacial re]ationship thereby taking U?
the maximum of space for storage and transportation.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention overcomes these disadvantages by providing a preformed trough type panei having longitudinal side edges which engage one with the other when the panels are adjacently connected together and which may be connected together and also include means on one side edge to overlie and shield the junction and theother side edge of the adjacent panel. Such panels are also capable of stacking relationship 1' .
3~
one with the other in theminimum of space for storage and trans-portation purposes. It will be appreciated that when panels are stac~ed onto one another, some spreading of the lowermost panel in the stac~ may occur. However, this will not permanent-ly deform the configuration.
In accordance with the invention there is provided a substantially rectangular panel construction for adjacent connection together to form walls, ceilings and the like, each panel being preformed and comprising a plurality of alternately situated depressed and raised troughs, a first side edge form-ed on one longitudinal side of the panel and a second side edge formed on the other longitudinal side edge of the panel, said first side edge of one panel engaging said second side edge of the adjacent panel whereby a portion of said first side edge overlies and shields the second side edge of the adjacent panel and the junction between said ad~acent panels, said first edge and said second edge including vertically situat-ed portions which are in partial interfacial relationship when said panels are adjacently connected together, and fastening means e~tending through said vertically situated portions in said partial interfacial relationship, for adjacently connect-ing said panels together.
Another advantage of the invention is to provide a substantially rectangular panel construction which may be formed in a horizontal sheet or a curved sheet as desired.

Yet another advantage of the invention is to pro-vide a panel construction in which adjacent panels may be ~, .

- : . , .
-secured together by horizontally extending fastening meanssuch as blind rivets or the like and in which the longitu-dinally extending edge of one panel may overlie and shield the longitudinally extending edge of the adjacent panel and the junction between the adjacent panels.
~ et another advantage of the invention is to pro-vide a panel construction of the character herewithin des-cribed in which any form of trough configuration may be used or alternatively, the portion of the panel between the long-itudinally extending side edges may be planar if desired.
Yet another advantage of the invention is to pro-vide a device of the character herewithin described which is simple in construction, economical in manufacture and o-therwise well suited to the purpose for which it is design-ed.
With the foregoing in view, and other advantages as will become apparent to those skilled in -the art to which this invention relates as this specification proceeds, the invention is herein described by reference to the accompany-ing ~rawings forming a part hereof, which includes a descrip-tion of the preferred typical embodiment of the principles of the present invention, in which:
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Figure 1 is a fragmentary isometric view of one panel with a portion of an adjacent panel shown and connected thereto.
Figure 2 is an end view of Figure l.
Figure 3 shows a schematic end elevation of a plura-lity of panels in stacking relationship.
In the drawings like characters of reference indiciate corresponding parts in the different figures.
VETAILED DESCRIPTION
The individual panels collectively designated lO
may be formed from sheet metal or sheet synthetic plastic either on a brake or preferably through a rolling mill in which a strip ofmaterial is passed through the rolling mill and preform-ed either in a continuous length which may be cut into conven-ient lengths, or by passing individual sheets of material tnrough the mill to form individual panels.
Such panel formation is well known and it is not believed necessary to describe same further~
In tne panel 10 illustrated herewith~ a plurality of troughs 11 are formed with trough 11 being depressed and trough llA being raised. Each trough includes the horizontal longitudinally extending portion 12 and outwardly diverging side panel portion 13. However, it will be appreciated that any configuration of trough can be utilized pro-. ~ ' s `''~1 ::
:
, ~æ3~8 viding the trough configura~ion is such that one panel will nest within the other for storage and transportation purposes.
It will be appreciated that the portion of the panel between the longitudinally extending side edges, may be planar, if desired.
A first longitudina~ side edge is formed on the panel and is collectively designated 14 and a second long-itudinally extending side edge formed on the opposite side of the panel and collectively des.ignated 15 and the confi-guration of the side edges 14 and 15 is different as will be apparent from a perusal of the drawings.
Dealing first with the side edge 14, it extends upwardly from a relatively shorl outwardly and upwardly ex-tending side wall 16 which extends from the planar base 12 of the outermost depressed trough. A substantially vertical :
portion 17 extends upwardly from the upper edge 18 of the portion 16 and a horizontal portion 19 extends outwardly from the upper edge 20 of the vertical portion 17.
A relatively short lip or flange 21 extends out-wardly and downwardly from the outer edge 22 of the hori-zontal portion 19 as clearly shown in the drawings.
The second side edge 15, also extends from the relatively short wall portion 16 of the other uppermost de-~, .
3Si~,~
pressed trough 12. From the upper edge 17 of this portion 16, there is formed a relatively short substantially vertical portion 23 and an upwardly and inwardly extending portion 24 extends from the upper edge 25 of this relatively short vertical portion 23. A substantially horizontal portion 26 extends outwardly from the upper edge 27 of the upwardly and inwardly extending portion 24.
It will be observed that the horziontal portions 19 and 26 of the two side edges 14 and 15, lie in the same plane as one another and, in this embodiment, in a plane above the plane of the portion 12A of the raised trough llA. However, if desired, the plane of the horizontal portions 19 and 26 and the portion 12A may be similar.
From the foregoing and from a perusal of Figure 3, (which is schematic only) it will be observed that the panels ; may nest substantially one within the other in stacked relation-ship Eor storage and transportation purposes thus taking up the minimum of space for this purpose. Spreading of the lowermost panels (not illustrated) that will occur due to the weight and similar dimensions of the panels there~ore will not permanent-ly distort the configuration of the lowermost panels.
When it is desired to secure adjacent panels together, the first longLtudinal side edge 14 is overlapped upon the second side edge 15 of the adjacent panel as clearly shown in Figure 2 so that the vertical portion 23 of tne second side B
~ . . -. ;, : ~
.
~3~
edge is in partial interfacial relationship with the verti-cal portion 17 of the adjacent panel. This means that fas-tening means 30 may extend between these vertical portions in a horizontal manner, said fastening means taking the form of blind rivets or any other desired fastening means. It will also be observed that the horizontal portion 19 of one panel completely overlies and shields the horizontal portion 26 of the adjacent panel with the lip or flange 21 extending outwardly and downardly over the junction 27 and that this shielding also extends to the junction between the adjacent panels thus eliminating the necessity for sealant material under the majority of circumstances. Further fastening means 30A extend through these horizontal portions 19 and 26 similar to fastening means 30.
It will also be obser~ed that the adjacent side edges 14 and 15 oE the adjacent panels nest together when fas-tened by means 30 thus assistiny in the seal therebetween and also adding a stiffening effect to the junction between adja-cent panels and hence to the entire structure.
Finally, it will be noted that Figure 2 shows, at the left hand side thereof, a building structural member 28 in the form of a purlin or girt or the like, to which the panels may be secured by the vertical fastening means 30A.
Since various modifications can be made in my in-~Z35i~
vention as hereinabove described, and many apparently wide-ly different embodiments of same made within the spirit and scope of the claims without departing from such spirit and scope, it is intended that all matter contained in the ac-companying specification shall be interpreted as illustra-tive only and not in a limiting sense.
