Abstract
A building system that employs panelling preferably having a glass fibre core, and having an outer covering on one face surface. The covering rounds the corners of opposed edges of each panel and the panels are installed with their covered corners juxtaposed. A series of adjacent panels are contained between fixed rails of distorted "U" shaped cross-section that allow the panels to be slip-fitted into place to form a continuous wall.
Description
CA 0222~9~2 1997-12-24 TITLE: WALL PANEL AND WALL PANELLING SYSTEM
FIELD OF THE lNV~llON
This invention relates to wall panelling to provide a finished surface to walls within structures.
More particularly, it relates to panelling that is also insulative and can be used to cover surfaces in general.
BACKGROUND TO THE I-Nv~NllON
In conventional residential construction, the walls of the basement are typically constructed of cinder block or poured concrete. Basement space is later finished by installing an inner wall system over the concrete walls of the foundation. Sometimes only furring strips are required along the wall on which to nail wood panelling.
In some jurisdictions stud walls need to be constructed in front of concrete basement walls, primarily to provide space for installing thermal insulation, but also to serve as a supporting structure for mounting drywall or wood panelling.
Wall panels of the present invention are intended to be used on block, concrete or stud wall construction, and are an attractive alternative to drywall or wood panelling. A major application of the panelling system of the invention is for finishing basement areas, but it can also be used for partition walls and exterior walls (above CA 0222~9~2 1997-12-24 ground level) and to provide a finished surface in other building applications.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a wall panel and wall panelling system with unique, eye-pleasing appearance, combined with good thermal and sound insulation properties.
It is likewise an object of the present invention to provide a wall panel and wall panelling system which can be quickly installed with simple tools by persons of modest skill as, for example, by do-it-yourself home owners.
The foregoing objects are achieved by a light-weight, easy to handle and install, wall panelling system consisting of wall panels and a supporting structure. me invention in its general form will first be described, and then its implementation in terms of specific embodiments will be detailed with reference to the drawings following hereafter. These embodiments are intended to demonstrate the principle of the invention, and the manner of its implementation. The invention in its broadest and more specific forms will then be further described, and defined, in each of the individual claims which conclude this Specification.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention comprises a rectangular panel in the form of an insulative panel core, peferably a glass fibre batt which is clad on at least one side with a bonded covering that wraps-around at least two opposed edges of CA 0222~9~2 1997-12-24 the panel. The invention also comprises guide rails that have a distorted "U" in cross-sectional shape, one leg of the "U" being longer than the other legs.
As an installed system, the panel is positioned with two opposed edges contained within two parallel rail elements, which rails have respectively a longer and shorter leg portion overlying the covered surface of the panel. Multiple panels are fitted adjacent each other between the rails with their covered edges juxtaposed. The rails are spaced so that the panels may be "slip-fitted"
into position between the rails.
The foregoing summarizes the principal features of the invention and some of its optional aspects. The invention may be further understood by the description of the preferred embodiments, in conjunction with the drawings, which now follow.

Claims
PROPERTY ARE CLAIMED AS FOLLOWS:
1. A panelling system comprising:
(1) multiple generally rectangular panels each having two face surfaces containing an insulative core and two pairs of opposed parallel edges defining the boundaries of each of the face surfaces and delimiting outer edge surfaces for the panel;
(2) a covering bonded to one of the face surfaces of the panel, with such covering extending around at least two of the opposed edges on at least one face of each panel to overly a portion of the respective edge surfaces adjacent such parallel edges; and (3) first and second parallel rails each of generally "U" shaped cross-section, both having one leg of the "U" longer than the other wherein multiple panels are positioned between said rails, contained by a shorter leg of the "U" of the first rail and the longer leg of the "U" of the second leg, which legs both overlie the covering on the face surface of each panel, and wherein the covered edges of each of the panels are juxtaposed to an adjacent covered edge.
