Abstract
The present invention relates to a prefabricated slat façade system that is made ready for mounting, thereby securing that the façade is quickly protected against weather conditions, such as wind, snow, and rain.
Description
DK 180811 B1 A prefabricated slat facade system and a method for mounting said system Technical field of the invention The present invention relates to a prefabricated slat facade system. Background of the invention When designing or renovating houses, whether it is a specially designed or a standard house, the architect more often chooses wood profiles. Wood slats are beautiful and very architectural. Despite this, they are not used to a large degree. This is primarily because it is a solution, which is quite difficult to mount, and thus quite costly in terms of labor. It is therefore desirable to provide a prefabricated slat facade system solving the above-mentioned problems. JP2011127396 discloses a method of constructing a prefabricated outer panel on the outer peripheral surface of a building. Description of the invention The present invention is a prefabricated slat facade system that is made ready for mounting, thereby securing that the facade is quickly protected against weather conditions, such as wind, snow, and rain.
A first aspect relates to a prefabricated slat facade system comprising a plurality of subunits, said subunits adapted for being mounted side by side, directly or indirectly, to a wall of a building, each subunit comprising: a) a sheet or plate with a front face, and a back-face opposite to said front face and adapted for being mounted directly or indirectly to a wall of a building;
> DK 180811 B1 b) a plurality of elongate spacers of a first type fastened to said sheet or plate, each with a front face, a back-face opposite to said front face and facing said sheet or plate, and two ends; and c) a plurality of slats of a first type, each with a front face, and a back-face opposite to said front face and facing said front face of said sheet or plate and said front face of said spacers of a first type, and each with a part of its back-face fastened to said front face of said spacers of a first type; wherein said slats are fastened perpendicular to the length of said spacers and with a space between neighboring slats, thereby allowing said sheet or plate and spacers of a first type to be visible there through; wherein the prefabricated slat facade system further comprises either d1) a plurality of slats of a second type, each with a front face, and a back-face opposite to said front face, said back-face comprising a first part of a fastening mechanism; and - a second part of said fastening mechanism adapted for being mounted between two neighboring subunits; wherein said first and second parts of said fastening mechanism are adapted for engaging with one another; or d2) a plurality of slats of a second type, each with a front face, and a back-face opposite to said front face, said back-face comprising a first part of a fastening mechanism; and - a second part of said fastening mechanism formed in one of said ends of said spacers of a first type; wherein said first and second parts of said fastening mechanism are adapted for engaging with one another.
In the present context, the term “slat” is to be understood as an elongate, narrow piece of wood, plastic, or metal, especially one of a series for use in a slat facade.
Preferably, the width of an individual slat is within the range of 15-100 mm, such as within the range of 25-90 mm, e.g., within the range of 30-85 mm,
2 DK 180811 B1 such as within the range of 35-80 mm, e.g., within the range of 40-75 mm, more preferably within the range of 45-70 mm, such as within the range of 50-65 mm. The elongate spacers of a first type are present to provide proper ventilation of the slats and the sheet or plate. At the same time, the spacers of a first type are present to provide a visual depth between the slats. In one or more embodiments, the prefabricated slat facade system further comprises: - a plurality of slats of a second type, each with a front face, and a back-face opposite to said front face, said back-face comprising a first part of a fastening mechanism; and - a second part of said fastening mechanism adapted for being mounted between two neighboring subunits; wherein said first and second parts of said fastening mechanism are adapted for engaging with one another. This configuration allows for a concealed connection between two subunits. Preferably, the slats of a second type are dimensioned as the slats of a first type but differs in the back-face comprising a first part of a fastening mechanism. The fastening mechanism may have many different configurations, and a few are exemplified below.
In one or more embodiments, the first part of said fastening mechanism is configured as one or more recesses, and wherein said second part of said fastening mechanism comprises one or more leaf springs adapted for engaging with said one or more recesses. The leaf springs may be made of metal, such as steel or iron, or preferably a polymeric material, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, that is more weather resistant than many metals.
In one or more embodiments, the prefabricated slat facade system further comprises: - a plurality of slats of a second type, each with a front face, and a back-face opposite to said front face, said back-face comprising a first part of a fastening mechanism; and
1 DK 180811 B1 - a second part of said fastening mechanism formed in one of said ends of said spacers of a first type; wherein said first and second parts of said fastening mechanism are adapted for engaging with one another.
In one or more embodiments, the first part of said fastening mechanism comprises one or more leaf springs, and wherein said second part of said fastening mechanism is configured as one or more recesses adapted for receiving said one or more leaf springs. The leaf springs may be made of metal, such as steel or iron, or preferably a polymeric material, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, that is more weather resistant than many metals.
In one or more embodiments, the prefabricated slat facade system further comprises: - a plurality of spacers of a second type adapted for separating said spacers of a first type from said sheet or plate. This configuration allows for a better ventilation of the different components of the subunits. This type of spacer is preferably configured to prevent water from resting thereon, e.g., having an oval, circular, or triangular shape. The spacers of a second type are preferably made of an elastomeric material, such as rubber or the like.
In one or more embodiments, the plurality of spacers of a second type are made of an elastomeric material, such as rubber or the like. Preferably, the spacers of a first type are fastened to the sheet or plate by elongate fastening means, such as screws, staples, or nails, extending from the back-face of said sheet or plate, through said spacers of a second type, through said spacers of a first type, and into a part of said slats of a second type. This configuration protects the fastening means from weather conditions as the only external part is hidden between the sheet or plate and the wall of the building.
In one or more embodiments, the space between neighboring slats is within the på DK 180811 B1 range of 5-50 mm, such as within the range of 10-45 mm, e.g., within the range of 15-40 mm, such as within the range of 15-35 mm, e.g., within the range of 20- 30 mm. Preferably, the ratio between the space between neighboring slats and the slat width is within the range of 1:4 to 1:100, e.g., a space between neighboring slats of 12 mm, and a slat width of 45 mm. This configuration allows for the right amount of ventilation, while retaining the look of a slat facade. Preferably, the ratio between the space between neighboring slats and the slat width is within the range of 1:4 to 1:10.
A second aspect relates to a method for constructing a facade comprising the steps of: - providing a plurality of subunits according to the present invention; - directly or indirectly, mounting and joining said subunits in a side-by-side manner to an existing wall of a building.
In one or more embodiments, the method further comprises: - providing a plurality of slats of a second type, each with a front face, and a back-face opposite to said front face, said back-face comprising a first part of a fastening mechanism; - providing a second part of said fastening mechanism adapted for being mounted between two neighboring subunits; wherein said first and second parts of said fastening mechanism are adapted for engaging with one another; - mounting said second part of said fastening mechanism across the joint between said two neighboring subunits; and - mounting one of said slats of a second type over said joint between said two neighboring subunits by connecting said first and second parts of said fastening mechanism.
In one or more embodiments the sheet or plate is a wind stopper, such as a fibre cement panel, a concrete panel, a plaster panel, a composite panel, such as an p DK 180811 B1 A2 grade aluminum bond plate, an aluminum corrugated panel, or the like. Preferably, the sheet or plate is configured to fulfil the EN 13501-1:2009 or newer. A suitable example may be fibre cement panels that do not contain salts and therefore do not absorb moisture, such as the marketed Cembrit Windstopper panels.

, DK 180811 B1 Detailed description of the invention Referring to Figure 1, the general scheme of the invention is shown. Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a subunit 105 comprising a plate 110, four elongate spacers of a first type 120 fastened to said sheet or plate 110, and nine slats of a first type 130.
Figure 2 shows a subunit 105 of prefabricated slat facade system in accordance with various embodiments of the invention in exploded view. The plate 110, spacers of a first type 120, and slats of a first type 130 are all shown from their respective front faces 111, 121, 131. Here, it is also possible to see twelve spacers of a second type 160 adapted for separating the spacers of a first type 120 from the sheet or plate 110. The subunit is merged and fastened with the fastening means 170, here embodied as screws mounted from the back-face 112 (Figure 3) of the plate 110.
Figure 3 shows a cross-sectional view of a subunit 105 of prefabricated slat facade system in accordance with various embodiments of the invention, where the different components are shown in the following order from the back to the front: plate 110, spacers of a second type 160, spacer of a first type 120, and slats of a first type 130. In this embodiment, the same amount, nine, of spacers of a second type 160 and slats of a first type 130 are shown, however, this is not always the case. A spacer of a second type 160 for every second or third slat of a first type 130 may be sufficient as seen in Figures 6 and 7. In this situation, different fastening means may be used to merge and fasten the subunit. The before-mentioned fastening means 170 are used when a spacer of a second type 160 is present, but a different fastening means may be used when a spacer of a second type is not present. Here, it is only needed to fasten the slats of a first type to the spacer of a first type. The slats of a first type 130 are preferably fastened perpendicular to the length of the spacers of a first type 120 and with a space 134 between neighboring slats 130A, 130B.
8 DK 180811 B1 Figure 4 shows a cross-sectional of two connected subunits of a prefabricated slat facade system in accordance with various embodiments of the invention. The subunits 105A, 105B are connected to one another by a fastening mechanism 143, 150. The first part 143 of a fastening mechanism is integrated into a slat of a second type 140 having the same dimensions a slat of a first type
130. The second part 150 of said fastening mechanism is adapted for being mounted between two neighboring subunits 105A, 105B, and is here shown fastened to their respective spacers of a first type 120A, 120B, but could also have be configured for fastening to the respective plates 110A, 110B. The first 143 and second 150 parts of said fastening mechanism are obviously adapted for engaging with one another. The specific configuration of the fastening mechanism may vary, but is here shown in a preferred embodiment, where the first part 143 of said fastening mechanism is configured as a recess, and wherein said second part 150 of said fastening mechanism comprises one or more leaf springs 154 (better seen in Figure 5) adapted for engaging with said recess. To provide space for the base 152 of this type of a second part 150 of said fastening mechanism, the two ends 123 of the spacers of a first type 120A, 120B of each subunit 105A, 105B are configured as a recess 124 adapted for receiving said base 152. A spacer of a second type 160 is preferably present at the connection site of the two subunits 105A, 105B as seen in Figure 7. Figures 5Å-B show an example of a second part 150 of a fastening mechanism, 5A shown from the end and 5B shown in perspective view.
