pACKGROUND
[0002] Suspended ceilings are usually made of a metal grid consisting of tracks in the form of longitudinal parallel runners spaced apart from one another at a desired distance and separated by cross members in a perpendicular fashion thereby creating a plurality of rectangular openings. In general, those rectangular openings are of standard sizes allowing the ventilation outlets and the lighting fixtures to be easily inserted among the ceiling panels,
[0003] Suspended ceilings have been mostly utilized in office buildings and in housing basements because of the handiness that such systems allow to repair and/or to modify the partition of the space. However, most development in suspended ceilings has been towards improving the convenience for offices, without any improvement to the visual aspect of the ceiling.
[0004] The art teaches a clip assembly for use with a suspended ceiling, having a first member adapted to be secured to an overhead structural member and a second member adapted to be connected to a runner adapted to support a ceiling tile or the like. The first and second members are connected together such that the runner can be suspended from the structural member via the clip assembly. The first member has a downwardly facing channel and the second member has a protrusion adapted to connectingly engage the channel.

The top member has an upper wall for being secured to an overhead structure and comprises a pair of lower spaced apart lateral walls downwardly extending from the upper wall. The lateral walls define front and rear open faces and a bottom opening and comprise respective outer surfaces and inner surfaces defining a channel therebetween. At least one inward fin extends from each of the inner surfaces into the channel in an upwardly sloped direction. The bottom member comprises a top end, a bottom end for being secured to the runner and opposite lateral surfaces therebetween. At least one outward fin extends from each of the lateral surfaces in a downwardly sloped direction that is complementary to the upward sloped direction of the at least one inward fin, The bottom member is configured to be inserted into the channel via the front or rear open faces providing for each one of the outward fins to slide on a respective one of the inward fins and be supported thereon and for the bottom end to extend below the bottom opening thereby mounting the bottom member to the top member so as to connect the runner when the bottom end is secured thereto to the overhead structure when the upper wall is secured thereto.
[0019] With reference to the Figures, non-limiting illustrative embodiments will now be described.
[0020] Figure 1 shows a modular suspended ceiling structure 10 comprising a plurality ceiling panels 12 mounted to runners 14. As shown in Figures 5, 7 and 8, the runners 14 are connected to overhead structures such as beams 16 via clip assemblies 18.
[0021] With respect to Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5, the clip assembly comprises a top member 20 and a bottom member 22.
[0022] The top member 20 includes a top portion 24 and a bottom portion 26. The top portion 24 is defined by an upper wall 28 having a top surface 30 for interfacing with the overhead structure 16. The bottom portion 24 includes a pair of spaced apart lower lateral walls 32 downwardly extending from the underside 34 of the upper wall 28 which is opposite the top surface 30.
[0023] The spaced apart lateral walls 32 define respective outer wall surfaces 36 and respective inner wall surfaces 38. The spaced apart Inner wall surfaces 38 define a channel 40 therebetween. Moreover, the spaced apart lower lateral walls 32 define front and rear open faces 42 (it should be noted that the terms "front" and "rear" are used herein for convenience and are thus interchangeable) and a bottom opening 44 (see also Figures 6 and 7).
10024] The top surface 30 of the upper wall 26 defines a peripheral edge 46 comprising flexible and resilient flaps 48 inwardly extending from the peripheral edge 46 above the top surface 30. When the upper wall 20 is secured to the overhead structure 16 via fasteners 50 for example, the flaps 38 engage the overhead structure 16 and bias the upper wall 28 away from the overhead structure 16 thereby stabilizing the top member 20. As such, when the surface of the overhead structure is uneven the biasing force of the flaps 48 provide for evening out the engagement between the top member 20 and the overhead structure 16 such that the lateral wails 32 are substantially vertical.
[0025] The inner walls 38 of the spaced apart lower walls 32 comprise at least one respective inward fin 52 extending therefrom into the channel 40 in an upwardly sloped direction providing for forming a receiving cavity 54 (see Figure 7) between the inward fin 52 and the Inner surface wall 38 it extends from.
[0026] As shown in Figure 3, the top member 20 of the clip assembly 18 can be provided in various lengths. Still referring to Figure 3, the clip assembly 18 can comprise two or more top members 20.
[0027] The bottom member 22 of the clip assembly 18 comprises a main 5 longitudinal and generally vertical body 56 defining top and bottom end, 58 and 60 respectively and opposite lateral surfaces 62 (see Figure 7).
[0028] Each lateral surface 62 comprises at least one outward fin 64 that extends therefrom in a downwardly sloped direction.
[0029] The vertical body 56 and the outward fins 64 extending therefrom 10 are configured to be inserted into the channel 40 via the front or rear face 42 of the top member. In this way, a given lateral surface 62 of the vertical body 56 of the bottom member 22 interfaces with a given inner surface 38 of a given lateral wall 32 of the top member 20 providing a given outward fin 64 of that given lateral surface 62 to interface and slide on a given inward fin 52 of that given inner surface 38. In one non-limiting embodiment, this given inward fin 52 and this given outward fin 64 have complementary sloped structures. In this way, the outward fins 64 are rested or mounted on the inward fins 52 they interface with thereby mounting the bottom member 22 to the top member 20.
[0030] Each inner surface 38 of the top member 20 can include more than one Inward fin 52 as shown in the Figures; correspondingly, each lateral surface of the bottom member can include more than one outward fin 64. Therefore, the bottom member 22 can be mounted along different positions along the vertical height defines by the channel 40. As such, the height of the clip assembly 18 is adjustable and thus the space between a runner 12 and the overhead structure 16.
[0031] When the clip assembly 18 is assembled, the bottom end 60 of the vertical member 56 extends beyond the bottom opening of is secured to the runner 14. The bottom end 60 comprises an insert 66; in the illustrated example the Insert 56 comprises a dovetail tubular structure that is fitted into a complementarily configured groove 68 in a surface 70 of the runner 14. In an embodiment, the groove 68 runs all the way to an edge 69 (see Figure 6) of the runner 14 forming an opening 71 (see Figure 6) and the Insert 66 is slid into the groove 68 for a secure fit thereby mounting the bottom member 22 of the clip assembly 18 to the runner 14.
[0032] Each of the lateral surfaces 62 of the bottom member 22 comprise at least one flexible and resilient curved flap member 72 downwardly extending therefrom, Each flap member 72 defines a respective free end 74 thereof for engaging the runner surface 70 when the bottom end 60 is secured thereto thereby stabilizing the clip assembly 18 between the overhead structure 16 the runner 14. The flaps 72 bias the bottom member 22 away from the runner 14 adding to the tension of the insert 66 within the groove 68 which cannot escape from the opening 76 formed in the runner surface 70 thereby further securing the bottom end 60 to runner 14.
[0033] With particular reference to Figures 7 and a, the top end 58 of the vertical body 56 comprises an outer top flexible and resilient curved wall 78 with the underside thereof 80 acting as a fin. The upper wall 28 comprises an undersurface 82 (see Figures 7 and 8) defined between the spaced apart lower lateral walls 32. In an embodiment, the outer top curved wall 80 provides for engaging the undersurface 82 thereby adding tension to the clip assembly 18 between the overhead structure 16 and the runner 14 further solidifying the connection therebetween, [0034] As shown in Figure 4, the bottom member 22 of the clip assembly can be provided in various lengths. Still referring to Figure 4, the clip assembly 18 can comprise two or more bottom members 22, [0036] As ascertained from the above, there is provided a method for assembling a suspended ceiling, which comprises providing the elements described herein. The method comprises securing the top member 20 of the clip assembly 18 to the overhead structure 16, sliding the bottom member 22 of the clip assembly 18 along the top member 20 and positioning it thereon thereby assembling the clip assembly 18. The bottom member 22 is positioned at a given horizontal position along the horizontal length of the top member 20 as well as a given position along the vertical length of the lateral walls 32.
[0036] In another embodiment, as shown in Figures 6, 7 and 8, the top end 58 of the bottom member 22 is used to penetrate the bottom opening 44 of the top member 20 to be inserted within the channel 40. As such, the Curved wall 78 Is configured to push the inward fins 52 inwardly towards the Inner surfaces 38 of the lateral walls 32, the outwards fins 64 consequently push the inward fins towards the inner surfaces 38 they protrude from in order to create a space for entry of the vertical member 56 and the outward fins 64. The deformability and resiliency of the inward fins 52 provides for them to spring back to their original form thereby allowing the outward fins 64 to be mounted on the inward fins 52.
[0037] There is also provided a kit for constructing a suspended ceiling comprising elements discussed herein.
[0038] The various features described herein can be combined in a variety of ways within the context of the present description so as to provide still other embodiments. It is to be understood that the present description is not limited in its application to the details of construction and parts illustrated in the accompanying drawings and described hereinabove. The description is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced In various ways. It is also to be understood that the phraseology or terminology used herein is for the purpose of description and not limitation. Hence, although the present description has been provided hereinabove by way of non-restrictive illustrative embodiments thereof, it can be modified, without departing from the scope, spirit and nature of the disclosure and appended claims !
10024] The top surface 30 of the upper wall 26 defines a peripheral edge 46 comprising flexible and resilient flaps 48 inwardly extending from the peripheral edge 46 above the top surface 30. When the upper wall 20 is secured to the overhead structure 16 via fasteners 50 for example, the flaps 38 engage the overhead structure 16 and bias the upper wall 28 away from the overhead structure 16 thereby stabilizing the top member 20. As such, when the surface of the overhead structure is uneven the biasing force of the flaps 48 provide for evening out the engagement between the top member 20 and the overhead structure 16 such that the lateral wails 32 are substantially vertical.
[0025] The inner walls 38 of the spaced apart lower walls 32 comprise at least one respective inward fin 52 extending therefrom into the channel 40 in an upwardly sloped direction providing for forming a receiving cavity 54 (see Figure 7) between the inward fin 52 and the Inner surface wall 38 it extends from.
[0026] As shown in Figure 3, the top member 20 of the clip assembly 18 can be provided in various lengths. Still referring to Figure 3, the clip assembly 18 can comprise two or more top members 20.
[0027] The bottom member 22 of the clip assembly 18 comprises a main 5 longitudinal and generally vertical body 56 defining top and bottom end, 58 and 60 respectively and opposite lateral surfaces 62 (see Figure 7).
[0028] Each lateral surface 62 comprises at least one outward fin 64 that extends therefrom in a downwardly sloped direction.
[0029] The vertical body 56 and the outward fins 64 extending therefrom 10 are configured to be inserted into the channel 40 via the front or rear face 42 of the top member. In this way, a given lateral surface 62 of the vertical body 56 of the bottom member 22 interfaces with a given inner surface 38 of a given lateral wall 32 of the top member 20 providing a given outward fin 64 of that given lateral surface 62 to interface and slide on a given inward fin 52 of that given inner surface 38. In one non-limiting embodiment, this given inward fin 52 and this given outward fin 64 have complementary sloped structures. In this way, the outward fins 64 are rested or mounted on the inward fins 52 they interface with thereby mounting the bottom member 22 to the top member 20.
