Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a panel for a grid ceiling.
  • a panel for a grid ceiling said panel comprising first and second metal panel members of U or V-shaped cross-section, formed with side flanges and with the closed end of the cross-section of each of said panel members facing downwardly and with the first panel members also being parallel to one another, but perpendicular to and intersecting the first panel members to form rectangular cells therebetween, the two side flanges of the first panel members being formed with slots extending from the free edges of the respective side flanges to a point spaced from the closed end of the cross-section and with apertures on the respective side flanges between said point and the closed end of the cross-section, the two side flanges of the second panel members being formed with cooperating slot extending from the closed end of the cross-section to a location spaced from the free edge of the respective flange, the cooperating slots of the second panel members being spaced to interfit with the slots of the first panel members at the cross-over points of the panel members, with the closed
  • Such a construction has the lugs of the second panel member engaged with the apertures of the first panel member at a location close to the closed ends of the cross-section, that is close to the lower surface of the grid ceiling at the cross-over points. It has been found that this can provide a simple way of forming a reasonably rigid connection at the cross-over points. However, this is not fully satisfactory.
  • FR-A-2390610 shows a different type of grid ceiling in which the panels are formed of simple flat sheet material, first and second panels having interfitting slots. A lug on each panel is engaged in an aperture in the other panel to provide a locking effect.
  • the grid ceiling is designed so that the first and second panels can be adjusted to any desired relative angle.
  • each second panel are provided with openings, between said cooperating slot and the free edge of the respective flange, each side of each slot of the first panel member having a further lug extending inwardly of the slot at a position whereby the openings of the first panel member are engaged lockingly the four lugs of the first panel member.
  • each flange of the second panel is formed, in order to provide even greater rigidity, at the vicinity of each slot, with an opening between said location and the free edge of the flange and each of the edges of each slot of the first panel member is formed with a further lug extending inwardly of the slot, whereby, when the panels are interfitted, the thus formed four further lugs engage in a separate end of an opening of the second panel member.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective exploded view showing schematically the first and second panel members of one form of panel for a grid ceiling according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 there are shown a first panel member 10 and a second panel member 12 each of identical cross-section formed of generally U shaped cross-section metal, in fact being channel shaped having a web 14 joining two parallel side flanges 16, 18 provided with inturned rims 20, 22.
  • the first panel 10 is provided from the free edge defined by the rims 20, 22 with a slot 24 having side edges 26, 28, the slot terminating at a point 25 spaced from the web 14.
  • a guide tongue 30 having a smooth curved upper surface 32.
  • an aperture 34 of rectangular cross-section having ends 36, 38.
  • the flanges 16,18 of the second panel member 12 are each provided with a cooperating slot 40 having a closed end 42 with a guide tongue 44 again having a rounded free end 46.
  • the side edges 47, 49 of the slot 40 are formed with lugs 48, 50 respectively these being of triangular cross-section having a lower surface inclined to these edges at an acute angle and upper surfaces substantially perpendicular to the edges 47, 49.
  • the second panel members 12 are additionally provided, between the location 42 of the closed end of the slot 40, with a generally rectangular opening 51 having, adjacent the end thereof, recesses 52, 54.
  • the edges 26, 28 of the slots 24 are formed with further lugs 58, 56 respectively of generally similar shape to the lugs 48, 50.
