Abstract

The present invention comprises a flexible ceiling panel preferably formed from sheet metal, such as aluminum sheet. Each ceiling panel has a generally rectangular shape (corresponding in width to the spacing between the main runners) and is formed with a hem on all four edges. A series of bendable tabs are formed integrally with the hem of the panel. To secure the panel to the associated grid system, the tabs are folded upwardly and outwardly from the panel along two axes to secure the panel to the grid system. Alternatively, a plurality of separate spring clips is used to secure the panel to the grid system. Each clip includes a first leg adapted to have at least a portion thereof received in the hem of the ceiling panel. A second leg extends generally perpendicularly from the first leg and includes a detent extending toward the first leg, the detent being adapted to secure the clip to the flange of the runner.

Claims (8)

1. A ceiling panel for use in a suspended ceiling system having a support grid comprising a plurality of runners having flanges thereon adapted to support ceiling panels, the ceiling panel comprising a sheet of metal, the edges of which are folded back onto the panel to form a hem extending substantially about the perimeter of the panel, the hem having a plurality of spaced-apart tabs formed integrally therewith and adapted to be bent about a first axis and a second axis, whereby bending the tab about the first axis permits the tab to lie in a first plane generally perpendicular to the ceiling panel and bending the tab about the second axis permits a portion of the tab to lie in a second plane at an angle with respect to the first plane to permit the portion of the tab that is bent about the second axis to cooperate with a flange of the runners to secure the ceiling panel thereto.
2. The ceiling panel of claim 1 wherein the tab is configured to predispose it to bending about the first and second axes.
3. The ceiling panel of claim 2 wherein the tab includes a first aperture lying along the first axis and a second aperture lying along the second axis.
4. A clip for securing a sheet metal ceiling panel to a suspended ceiling support grid wherein the ceiling panel has edges that are folded back to form a hem and the support grid comprises a plurality of runners having flanges thereon for supporting the ceiling panel, the clip comprising:

a first leg adapted to have at least a portion thereof received in the hem of the ceiling panel;

a second leg extending generally perpendicularly from the first leg, the second leg including a detent extending toward the first leg adapted to secure the clip to the flange of the runner.
5. The clip of claim 4 wherein the first leg further comprises a tab adapted to be received in a corresponding aperture in the hem of the ceiling panel.
6. The clip of claim 4 wherein the detent has a free end adapted to engage an edge of the flange of the runner.
7. The clip of claim 4 wherein the detent has a free end adapted to engage an upper surface of the flange of the runner.
8. The clip of claim 4 further comprising an angled segment extending from the second leg, the angled segment having a free end adapted to rest on the flange of the runner during the installation of the ceiling panel into the support grid.
