The specific embodiment
Roof system/ceiling element shown in Figure 1 can be a kind of coated steel plate, has longitudinally extending positive rib member 2 along having longitudinally extending cloudy rib member 3 on the longitudinal edge of plate on another longitudinal edge, therebetween by 1 interconnection of smooth web.Web 1 has smooth plate part between described two longitudinal edges, it is in minimum position as roof system/ceiling element the time, also have a pair of longitudinally extending little enhancing rib 4 that parallels and separate to upper process on the described flat so that smooth plate part is played humidification.
Overlay is to make with the steel plate of 0.42 millimeter base metal thickness (BMT).Overlay can form by format roll is rolling.Also can make with methods such as punching press or continuous punching presses.
In the example of being introduced, the enhancing rib 4 that stretches upwards on the web 1 is projection on web plane for example about 4 millimeters only, is roughly planar shape in order to keep web 1.Cloudy rib member 3 protrudes in about 45 millimeters of top, described plane, about 35 millimeters of the width of cloudy rib member 3, about 33 millimeters of the width of positive rib member 2, about 254 millimeters of the width of web 1.
Sun rib member 2 is made up of a rib that stretches upwards, rib outwards forms ramp portion 6 earlier, also form a groove 8 therein in conjunction with a vertical component 7 again, and then inside the stretching, extension forms parts 9 above web 1, outwards stretch the positive edge of a wing 10 of formation again, it has trailing edge 11 and the leading edge 12 of returning the lip formula to stretch inwards downwards.Give prominence to outside web 1 on the described positive edge of a wing 10.8 length along sheet material of groove stretch continuously.
Cloudy rib member 3 also is made up of a rib that stretches upwards, rib outwards forms ramp portion 13 earlier, again in conjunction with a ramp portion inwards 14 that is positioned at web 1 top, and also has trailing edge 16 and with the cloudy edge of a wing 15 of the outside stretching, extension of the leading edge 17 of the form of recurrence part that stretches inwards downwards and the antelabium 18 that outwards stretches again, also give prominence to outside web 1 on the described cloudy edge of a wing 15.Outside ramp portion 13 has just formed outwards outstanding tenon member 19 with combining of ramp portion 14 inwards.Tenon 19 stretches continuously along the length of sheet material, and certainly, in certain embodiments, tenon also can be discontinuously along stretching on its length.
Sun rib member 2 and cloudy rib member 3 have been formed can interconnected member, and wherein when assembling, the positive rib member 2 on sheet material can enter in the cloudy rib member 3 of adjacent similar sheet material, and sheet material is engaged.The leading edge 12 on the sun edge of a wing 10 has entered in the opening in the hole that is formed by the cloudy edge of a wing 15, and is directed on the trailing edge 16 on the cloudy edge of a wing 15, so the trailing edge 11 on the positive edge of a wing 10 is just adaptive and meshed fast with 17 of the leading edges on the cloudy edge of a wing 15.In order to make engagement fast, when the trailing edge 11 on the positive edge of a wing 10 was inserted in the opening in hole 20, the inside expandable part of the leading edge 17 on the cloudy edge of a wing 15 just flicked from the trailing edge 16 on the cloudy edge of a wing 15.In when assembling, the top on the positive edge of a wing 10 just contacts with the bottom on the cloudy edge of a wing 15 like this, and contact portion flatly is close to together mutually, and together fastening them by the quick adaptive member on the cloudy edge of a wing 15.This mode of intermeshing provides the interference engagement between positive rib member and cloudy rib member 2,3.
The lip 18 of the outside stretching, extension on the cloudy edge of a wing 15 helps the leading edge 12 of the positive wing 10 to enter in the opening in hole 20, also helps manually to open when assembling the insertion of described opening with the trailing edge 11 that is convenient to the positive edge of a wing 10.In addition, when lip 18 moved, the setting of lip 18 also helped to strengthen the lock fit of connector.
As mentioned above, groove 8 is formed at the bottom of positive rib member 2, and tenon 19 also is formed at the bottom of cloudy rib member 3, and groove 8 and tenon 19 be the same to be shown same distance greatly with web 1 plane and separate.
Groove 8 has the bottom of relative mitigation inclination and the top of comparatively precipitous inclination.The size of the rib member 2,3 that engages one another can enter in the groove 8 of adjacent sheet metal by tenon 19 so that sheet material can flick.Afterwards, by the elasticity of the rolling steel that form of format roll can guarantee tenon can be in groove 8 more precipitous limit below.
Like this, when the positive edge of a wing 10 engaged with the cloudy edge of a wing 15, the tenon 19 on the cloudy edge of a wing 3 was sprung in the interface that is formed by groove 8 and is against on the sidewall of groove 8 of positive rib member, and forms the closed circuit cross section between two rib members 2,3.
In the finished product roof system, tenon 19 can also be as the additional quick adaptive member between positive rib member that engages and cloudy rib member 2,3 with groove 8.
And under this situation, the shape of rib member 2,3 bottoms can also make tenon and groove play the effect of fixing device, with commonly used structure by comparison, this structure makes connector have less deflection under the load effect, and the former since bottom rib member not do not engage, like this load with regard to integrally directly be added on the sheet material assembly rather than the rib member of independent a born load on.Can also make sheet material to make now compared with this situation with thinner material.Fixing device connector is provided when not only providing additional locking mechanism can also apply load on the direction perpendicular to web plane with the disengagement that prevents positive rib structure and cloudy rib member laterally moves to prevent it.
Thereby, the invention provides a kind of covering connector that demonstrates bigger rigidity than covering connector commonly used.
The present invention has also made up the common advantage of the basic configuration with the hollow link that prevents that comparatively effectively diastrophic cold working from forming in this respect.
As shown in Figure 4, connector between two adjacent sheet metals has a kind of form of element of construction or has the general crossbeam form of two parallel edges of a wing and a planar web, the wherein top edge of a wing is the form of the hollow link of closed loop of a kind of lengthening of being inverted the triangular-section of being formed by positive rib member and cloudy rib member 2,3 interconnection backs, the bottom flange then is the part of web 1 of the adjacent covering sheet material of veneer thickness, and the cantilever diaphragm place then is made up of the double sheet metal thickness of positive rib member and cloudy rib member bottom.Such structure member has high flexible rigidity thereby provides covering assemblies to make as a whole high flexible rigidity in each junction of composite member.
With respect to the structure of the hollow link of other shape, this structure with the hollow link of closed loop of being inverted the triangular-section has the load capacity of obvious raising.
Thereby, make the flexible rigidity that closed hollow-core construction parts have been strengthened composite member in the junction of two adjacent coverings, the structure of fixing device has further been strengthened its flexible rigidity again, and the structure of the fixing device of tenon and channel member form has also strengthened the convenient ability of assembling fast of covering.The structure of being inverted the hollow link of closed loop of triangular-section has further been strengthened the flexible rigidity of composite member.
When on perpendicular to covering assembly in-plane, applying load, for inclination is limited in can receptible deviation range in and make minimum, covering of the present invention and covering connector thereof can make it be applied to have bigger span than connection covering commonly used easily, can also reduce the risk that connector is threaded off under this load simultaneously.
In fact, we can say the effect of having played with the tubulose truss of covering integral body at the parts of the hollow link of junction.Connecting elements of the present invention provides a kind of and has become one with it and by the sheet material of its supporting and hollow-core construction parts analogous covering assembly on the flexible rigidity of lengthening, thereby has alleviated the demand that the overall span of roof system/ceiling structure is reached 3 meters to 4 meters batten building structure.That is to say, in the intensity of junction composite member as a whole owing to the effect of these hollow-core construction parts is strengthened, so also make very effectively and can adopt minimum batten, purlin or other similar support member, batten or purlin in the middle of particularly not needing when the 3-4 rice for length of span.The covering composite member only needs in its end to support.Best its end is buried in the latent groove of a C tee section passage that is supported by the stud of building unit or other frame parts again.
Thereby, the invention provides the member of attachable covering, they vertically also can be connected between covering fast with very high rigidity is laterally all being arranged.
Another advantage according to preferred embodiment of the present invention covering composite member is that the covering bottom has profile attractive in appearance, and is desirable especially when covering is used as roof system and ceiling structure.
Above just the situation of an embodiment of invention made detailed introduction, but those skilled in the art should understand, under the situation that does not exceed spirit of the present invention and scope, can do various modifications or improvement to the present invention.For example the form in the junction closed loop also can be the shape of right triangular cross-sectional, and its hypotenuse can stretch on the web of a part of adjacent covering.
In addition, web also can have one or several main enhancing rib, particularly when the required wider width of web.Main enhancing rib for example its size and profile should be suitable with the vertical member at connector place on the cross section.The formation of tenon and groove will make tenon be adjacent to groove more to move so that cloudy rib only fastens it in one direction in addition.
Tenon can replace along interval or the regular fastener that separates on the covering length with one group with another variation of channel member.This class fastener can be a clamping part, and snap-button parts or other can make each positive rib and cloudy rib bottom be maintained fixed coupled fasteners.That is to say and can adopt any suitable fastener, like this on perpendicular to the covering in-plane during applied load to prevent along moving at junction rib member on the covering length direction.
Best, fastener does not insert in the covering and goes, and also injury protection coating complete not so also can reduce as much as possible to sew and get rusty.
The present invention also provides a kind of connector, and it is made up of a pair of covering above-mentioned according to the present invention, and its positive rib member is engaged and discharging formation side by side by the cloudy rib member overlapping and the locking ground of adjacent covering.
