Description

L'invention se rapporte à un jeu d'éléments de construction selon le préambule de la revendication 1.The invention relates to a set of construction elements according to the preamble of claim 1.

Le brevet suisse N° 603.957 se rapporte à un tel jeu d'éléments de construction permettant de constituer plusieurs parois assemblées les unes aux autres, ce jeu comprenant des panneaux rectangulaires plans, chaque panneau présentant sur chacune de ses faces principales une rainure longeant chacun des bords de cette face, les quatre faces de chant de ce panneau présentant également une rainure orientée dans le sens de la longueur de chacune des faces de chant, ces dernières rainures étant à mi-distance entre les bords des faces principales du panneau, des éléments d'accrochage présentant des parties saillantes destinées à être introduites dans des rainures de deux panneaux contigus pour les assembler l'un à l'autre.Swiss Patent No. 603.957 relates to such a set of construction elements making it possible to constitute several walls assembled together, this set comprising flat rectangular panels, each panel having on each of its main faces a groove running along each of the edges of this face, the four edge faces of this panel also having a groove oriented lengthwise of each of the edge faces, these latter grooves being midway between the edges of the main faces of the panel, elements attachment having projecting parts intended to be introduced into the grooves of two adjacent panels to assemble them to each other.

L'invention a pour but de diminuer le nombre de pièces différentes qui sont nécessaire pour la construction: d'un logement ou d'un abri.The object of the invention is to reduce the number of different rooms which are necessary for the construction of: a dwelling or a shelter.

Selon l'invention, ce résultat est obtenu conformément à la partie caractérisante de la revendication 1 et notamment grâce au fait que chaque rainure parallèle à un bord d'une face d'un panneau est reliée à la rainure correspondante située sur l'autre face par deux rainures traversant deux faces de chant.According to the invention, this result is obtained in accordance with the characterizing part of claim 1 and in particular thanks to the fact that each groove parallel to an edge of one face of a panel is connected to the corresponding groove located on the other face by two grooves crossing two edge faces.

Les revendications dépendantes concernent des modes préférentiels de réalisation de l'invention.The dependent claims relate to preferred embodiments of the invention.

Le dessin annexe représente schématiquement et à titre d'exemple une forme d'exécution de divers éléments du jeu faisant l'objet de l'invention.The accompanying drawing shows schematically and by way of example an embodiment of various elements of the game which is the subject of the invention.

La figure 1 est une coupe transversale d'un panneau.Figure 1 is a cross section of a panel.

Les figures 2 à 4 représentent plus en détail une pièce d'angle d'un panneau.Figures 2 to 4 show in more detail a corner piece of a panel.

La figure 5 montre une partie d'un élément constitutif d'un panneau.Figure 5 shows part of a component of a panel.

La figure 6 montre en perspective avec coupe partielle un élément d'accrochage.Figure 6 shows in perspective with partial section a hooking element.

Les figures 7 et 8 représentent un deuxième élément d'accrochage.Figures 7 and 8 show a second hooking element.

Les figures 9 et 10 montrent de face et respectivement en coupe un troisième élément d'accrochage.Figures 9 and 10 show from the front and respectively in section a third fastening element.

La figure 11 montre en perspective une disposition de panneau permettant de former un plancher et deux parois latérales.Figure 11 shows in perspective a panel arrangement for forming a floor and two side walls.

En référence à la figure 1, un panneau 1 est formé par deux tôles 2 et 3 de forme générale rectangulaire et constituant les faces principales du panneau. Une masse 4 de résine synthétique à structure alvéolaire est prise en sandwich entre les tôles 2 et 3. Les bords de chacune de ces tôles présentent une portion repliée 5 en direction de la tôle opposée. Les deux portions repliées de ces tôles qui sont en regard l'une de l'autre sont reliées entre elles par une pièce 6 en résine synthétique, une portion de cette pièce 6 étant représentée à plus grande échelle à la figure 5. Cette pièce 6 est en forme d'auge et sa creusure constitue une rainure 6' orientée dans le sens de la longueur dans chacune des faces de chant, cette rainure 6' étant à mi-distance entre les bords des faces principales du panneau.Referring to Figure 1, a panel 1 is formed by two sheets 2 and 3 of generally rectangular shape and constituting the main faces of the panel. A mass 4 of synthetic resin with a cellular structure is sandwiched between the sheets 2 and 3. The edges of each of these sheets have a folded portion 5 in the direction of the opposite sheet. The two folded portions of these sheets which are opposite one another are interconnected by a piece 6 of synthetic resin, a portion of this piece 6 being shown on a larger scale in FIG. 5. This piece 6 is in the form of a trough and its recess constitutes a groove 6 'oriented lengthwise in each of the edge faces, this groove 6' being midway between the edges of the main faces of the panel.

Chaque panneau 1 présente sur chacune de ses faces principales une rainure 7 longeant chacun des bords de cette face. Ces rainures 7 sont obtenues par une déformation de chaque tôle 2 et 3, déformation exécutée avant que le panneau ne soit terminé.Each panel 1 has on each of its main faces a groove 7 running along each of the edges of this face. These grooves 7 are obtained by a deformation of each sheet 2 and 3, deformation carried out before the panel is finished.

La figure 2 montre un coin d'un panneau 1, ce dernier étant représenté en traits interrompus pour mieux montrer la pièce d'angle 8 constituant ce coin. Il y a lieu de remarquer qu'une rainure 7 du panneau croise une rainure 7' du même panneau et orientée à angle droit par rapport à la première. La pièce d'angle 8 est de forme générale cubique avec des portions en creux 9 et 10 prolongeant les rainures 7 et 7' d'une face principale. Bien entendu, à l'opposé de la portion en creux 9 se trouve une portion en creux 9' qui prolonge la rainure 7 de la face opposée du panneau 1.Figure 2 shows a corner of a panel 1, the latter being shown in broken lines to better show the corner piece 8 constituting this corner. It should be noted that a groove 7 of the panel crosses a groove 7 'of the same panel and oriented at right angles to the first. The corner piece 8 is generally cubic in shape with recessed portions 9 and 10 extending the grooves 7 and 7 'of a main face. Obviously, opposite the hollow portion 9 there is a hollow portion 9 'which extends the groove 7 on the opposite face of the panel 1.

Comme le montre la figure 3, la pièce d'angle 8 présente encore des portions en creux 11 et 12, qui constituent la partie terminale des deux rainures 6' des faces de chant qui aboutissent à l'angle considéré.As shown in Figure 3, the corner piece 8 also has recessed portions 11 and 12, which constitute the end portion of the two grooves 6 'of the edge faces which lead to the angle in question.

Grâce aux portions en creux 9 et 10, la rainure 7, respectivement 7', d'une face du panneau est reliée à la rainure correspondante située sur l'autre face par une rainure 13, respectivement 14, traversant les deux faces de chant du panneau.Thanks to the recessed portions 9 and 10, the groove 7, respectively 7 ′, on one side of the panel is connected to the corresponding groove located on the other side by a groove 13, respectively 14, crossing the two edge faces of the sign.

Les parties en creux 9, 10, 11 et 12 ménagées dans la forme générale cubique de la pièce d'angle 8 font apparaître sur celle-ci des parties saillantes 15, 16, 17 et 18 sur la face visible à la figure 2, ainsi que des parties saillantes correspondantes 15', 16', 17' et 18' dont trois sont visibles à la figure 4.The recessed portions 9, 10, 11 and 12 formed in the general cubic shape of the corner piece 8 reveal thereon protruding portions 15, 16, 17 and 18 on the face visible in FIG. 2, thus as corresponding projecting parts 15 ′, 16 ′, 17 ′ and 18 ′, three of which are visible in FIG. 4.

Ces parties saillantes assurent le guidage des tôles 2 et 3 l'une par rapport à l'autre, en venant s'engager dans l'espace compris entre la portion repliée 5 de ces tôles et le bord latéral extérieur de la rainure 7 longeant cette portion repliée. Cette disposition a été illustrée schématiquement sur la partie droite de la figure 1, où l'on remarque encore que les parties saillantes 18 et 18' viennent prendre appui contre l'autre bord latéral des rainures 7. Lorsque les quatre pièces d'angle 8 sont placées au quatre coins du panneau, on obtient un excellent positionnement des deux tôles l'une par rapport à l'autre, tant en ce qui concerne leur espacement que leur superposition.These projecting parts guide the sheets 2 and 3 relative to one another, coming to engage in the space between the folded portion 5 of these sheets and the outer lateral edge of the groove 7 along this folded portion. This arrangement has been illustrated diagrammatically on the right-hand part of FIG. 1, where it can also be noted that the projecting parts 18 and 18 ′ come to bear against the other lateral edge of the grooves 7. When the four corner pieces 8 are placed at the four corners of the panel, an excellent positioning of the two sheets is obtained with respect to each other, as regards their spacing as their superposition.

Comme le montre la figure 4, la pièce d'angle 8 est évidée de façon à pouvoir être remplie par la résine 4 à structure alvéolaire qui sépare les tôles 2 et 3. La figure 3 montre encore qu'au moins une pièce d'angle par panneau présente un trou 19 qui permet d'injecter la résine à l'intérieur du panneau lorsqu'il est formé par les deux tôles 2 et 3 assemblées par les quatre pièces d'angle. La résine à structure alvéolaire injectée est choisie parmi celles qui adhèrent fortement à la tôle ou au revêtement prévu sur celle-ci, de sorte qu'après l'injection de la résine, l'ensemble des tôles 2 et 3 et des quatre pièces d'angle constituent un bloc rigide ne pouvant en pratique plus être démonté.As shown in Figure 4, the corner piece 8 is hollowed out so that it can be filled with the resin 4 with a honeycomb structure which separates the sheets 2 and 3. Figure 3 also shows that at least one corner piece per panel has a hole 19 which allows the resin to be injected inside the panel when it is formed by the two sheets 2 and 3 assembled by the four corner pieces. The injected honeycomb resin is chosen from those which adhere strongly to the sheet or to the coating provided on it, so that after the injection of the resin, all of the sheets 2 and 3 and of the four parts d 'angle constitute a rigid block that can no longer be disassembled in practice.

Il y a lieu de relever qu'à l'exception des coins du panneau où les tôles 2 et 3 sont en contact avec les pièces d'angle, qui sont normalement en fonte d'aluminium injectée, ces tôles sont toujours séparées l'une de l'autre par la résine synthétique 4 et par les pièces 6 en résine synthétique qui sont toutes deux mauvaises conductrices de la chaleur. Le panneau obtenu présente ainsi un excellent pouvoir isolant au point de vue calorifique.It should be noted that with the exception of the corners of the panel where the sheets 2 and 3 are in contact with the corner pieces, which are normally made of die-cast aluminum, these sheets are always separated one on the other by synthetic resin 4 and by parts 6 of synthetic resin which are both poor conductors of heat. The panel obtained thus has excellent insulating power from the heat point of view.

Il y a lieu de remarquer que les saillies 18 et 18', qui font la liaison entre les faces de chant du panneau, présentent une surface cylindrique 20 en quart de rond inversé, de telle sorte que lorsqu'on juxtapose quatre panneaux dans un même plan, un passage libre cylindrique circulaire soit ménagé au point de jonction des quatre pièces d'angle de ces panneaux. Ce passage libre permet le passage d'un boulon destiné à relier deux plaques 21 dont une est montree en traits interrompus à la figure 3, et destinées à maintenir les quatre pièces d'angle ensemble. Pour permettre une excellente fixation, les plaques 21 peuvent être combinées avec un téton central cylindrique s'engageant dans ledit passage libre et encore avec des saillies s'engageant dans les creusures 9 et 10, respectivement 9' et 10', des quatre pièces d'angle. Il y a lieu de remarquer, comme cela se voit bien à la figure 3, que les saillies 18 et 18' sont plus basses que les parties saillantes voisines 15, 16 et 17 et ceci de la valeur de l'épaisseur des plaques 21. De cette façon, la surface extérieure des plaques 21 vient dans le prolongement des faces principales du panneau.It should be noted that the projections 18 and 18 ', which make the connection between the edge faces of the panel, have a cylindrical surface 20 in inverted quarter round, so that when four panels are juxtaposed in the same plan, a circular cylindrical free passage is provided at the junction of the four corner pieces of these panels. This free passage allows the passage of a bolt intended to connect two plates 21, one of which is shown in broken lines in FIG. 3, and intended to hold the four corner pieces together. To allow excellent fixing, the plates 21 can be combined with a cylindrical central stud engaging in said free passage and again with projections engaging in the recesses 9 and 10, respectively 9 'and 10', of the four pieces of 'angle. It should be noted, as can be seen in FIG. 3, that the projections 18 and 18 'are lower than the neighboring projecting parts 15, 16 and 17 and this by the value of the thickness of the plates 21. In this way, the outer surface of the plates 21 comes in line with the main faces of the panel.

La figure 6 montre une partie d'un élément d'accrochage 22 qui est destiné à être engagé entre les rainures 6', 7 ou 7' de deux panneaux que l'on veut assembler l'un à l'autre. Cet élément d'accrochage 22 est en forme de barre de section sensiblement rectangulaire et qui est constituée par un profilé 23, évidé de section en forme de Il. De cette façon, sur chacune de ses grandes faces, le profilé 23 présente une creusure dans laquelle est engagée une bande en élastomère 24, qui passe également sur les faces d'extrémité de cette barre. Lors du serrage de deux panneaux l'un contre l,autre, par des moyens qui seront décrits plus loin, l'élément 22 engagé dans les rainures assure l'étanchéité de la liaison entre les panneaux grâce a l'appui élastique exercé par la bande 24. Les éléments 22 ont des longueurs permettant de remplir complètement les rainures 7 et respectivement 7', soit par un seul élément ou par plusieurs éléments mis bout à bout.Figure 6 shows a part of a hooking element 22 which is intended to be engaged between the grooves 6 ', 7 or 7' of two panels that one wants to assemble to one another. This hooking element 22 is in the form of a bar of substantially rectangular section and which is constituted by a profile 23, hollowed out in section in the shape of Il. In this way, on each of its large faces, the section 23 has a recess in which is engaged an elastomer strip 24, which also passes over the end faces of this bar. When two panels are tightened against each other, by means which will be described later, the element 22 engaged in the grooves seals the connection between the panels by means of the elastic support. exerted by the strip 24. The elements 22 have lengths making it possible to completely fill the grooves 7 and respectively 7 ′, either by a single element or by several elements placed end to end.

Les figures 7 et 8 montrent un autre élément d'accrochage 25 qui présente également une garniture en élastomère 24 sur deux de ses faces les plus longues et sur ses deux faces d'extrémité. En outre, il présente à chaque extrémité de ses grandes faces dépourvues d'élastomère une saillie 26, respectivement 27, dont la section correspond sensiblement à la section libre d'une rainure 7 pour la saillie 27 et de deux rainures juxtaposées pour la saillie 26. La distance séparant les saillies 26 des saillies 27 correspond à celle séparant deux portions en creux 9 ou 10 de deux pièces d'angle 8 juxtaposées. Ces éléments d'accrochage 25 permettent notamment de retenir l'une contre l'autre deux pièces d'angle 8. Près de chacune de ses extrémités, l'élément d'accrochage 25 présente un perçage 28 permettant si désiré le passage d'une vis de fixation.Figures 7 and 8 show another fastening element 25 which also has an elastomer lining 24 on two of its longest faces and on its two end faces. In addition, it has at each end of its large faces devoid of elastomer a projection 26, respectively 27, the section of which corresponds substantially to the free section of a groove 7 for the projection 27 and two juxtaposed grooves for the projection 26 The distance separating the projections 26 from the projections 27 corresponds to that separating two recessed portions 9 or 10 from two juxtaposed corner pieces 8. These attachment elements 25 make it possible in particular to retain one against the other two corner pieces 8. Near each of its ends, the attachment element 25 has a hole 28 allowing, if desired, the passage of a screw.

Les figures 9 et 10 montrent en plan et, respectivement en coupe selon la ligne XX de la figure 9, un élément d'accrochage qui est constitué par une plaque 29 dont une face présente une creusure 30 dont la forme permet de l'engager sur deux ou quatre des saillies 15 à 18 de plusieurs pièces d'angle juxtaposées. La même face de la plaque 29 présente encore des parties saillantes 31 présentant une section permettant leur engagement dans une partie des rainures 7, respectivement 7'.Figures 9 and 10 show in plan and, respectively in section along line XX of Figure 9, a fastening element which is constituted by a plate 29, one face of which has a recess 30 whose shape allows it to be engaged on two or four of the projections 15 to 18 of several juxtaposed corner pieces. The same face of the plate 29 also has projecting parts 31 having a section allowing their engagement in a part of the grooves 7, respectively 7 '.

La figure 11 montre la façon d'assembler plusieurs panneaux 1 pour constituer un logement. Quatre panneaux 41, 42, 43 et 44 sont juxtaposés et sont retenus ensemble par des plaquettes serrées par une vis traversant le passage cylindrique 45 qui est obtenu par la juxtaposition des parties saillantes 18 en quart de rond, des quatre pièces d'angle desdits panneaux. Bien entendu, des éléments d'accrochage 22 sont engagés dans les rainures des faces de chant de ces panneaux qui sont en regard l'un de l'autre et qui assurent ainsi l'étanchéité de la jonction. Il est clair que suivant les dimensions du logement à créer, on pourra assembler pour le plancher un nombre de panneaux 1 supérieur à celui illustré au dessin. Un pan de mur 46 est formé de deux panneaux 47 et 48 qui sont placés perpendiculairement sur le plancher, avec interposition d'éléments d'accrochage 22 entre les rainures des faces de chant inférieures des panneaux 47 et 48 et une rainure 49 du panneau 41 du plancher. Un autre pan de mur 50 formé de deux panneaux 51 et 52 est également posé perpendiculairement sur le plancher et guidé par rapport à celui-ci par un élément d'accrochage 22 engagé dans une rainure 53 de ce plancher, tandis que les deux panneaux 46 et 50 sont également guidés entre eux, toujours par un élément d'accrochage 22 introduit dans la rainure de la face de chant du panneau 51 et dans la rainure 54 du panneau 48.Figure 11 shows how to assemble several panels 1 to form a housing. Four panels 41, 42, 43 and 44 are juxtaposed and are held together by plates tightened by a screw passing through the cylindrical passage 45 which is obtained by the juxtaposition of the projecting parts 18 in quarter-round, of the four corner pieces of said panels . Of course, hooking elements 22 are engaged in the grooves of the edge faces of these panels which are opposite one another and which thus seal the junction. It is clear that according to the dimensions of the housing to be created, it will be possible to assemble for the floor a number of panels 1 greater to that illustrated in the drawing. A wall section 46 is formed by two panels 47 and 48 which are placed perpendicularly on the floor, with interposition of fastening elements 22 between the grooves of the lower edge faces of the panels 47 and 48 and a groove 49 of the panel 41 from the floor. Another wall section 50 formed by two panels 51 and 52 is also placed perpendicularly on the floor and guided relative to the latter by a hooking element 22 engaged in a groove 53 of this floor, while the two panels 46 and 50 are also guided between them, still by a hooking element 22 introduced into the groove of the edge face of the panel 51 and into the groove 54 of the panel 48.

La section des éléments d'accrochage 22 à l'état de repos est plus grande que la section libre de deux rainures juxtaposées, de sorte qu'il faut exercer un effort assez important pour serrer l'une contre l'autre les deux rainures afin d'écraser la garniture en élastomère des éléments d'accrochage 22. Pour exercer cet effort de serrage, il suffit de prévoir des outils relativement simples, du type d'un étau ou encore d'une pince de serrage, dont on introduit les mâchoires dans deux rainures de deux panneaux voisins, par exemple dans les rainures 55 et 56 des panneaux 41 et 42. Pendant ce serrage, on place les éléments d'accrochage 25 et/ou 29, puis les éléments de serrage sont déserrés, les éléments d'accrochage restant en position sous l'effet de la poussée élastique exercée par les garnitures en élastomère. Bien entendu, il est avantageux de fixer définitivement la position des éléments d'accrochage à l'aide d'une vis et/ou de boulons.The section of the fastening elements 22 in the rest state is larger than the free section of two juxtaposed grooves, so that a fairly large force must be exerted to clamp the two grooves against each other in order to crush the elastomer lining of the hooking elements 22. To exert this clamping force, it suffices to provide relatively simple tools, of the type of a vice or of a clamp, whose jaws are introduced in two grooves of two neighboring panels, for example in the grooves 55 and 56 of the panels 41 and 42. During this tightening, the hooking elements 25 and / or 29 are placed, then the clamping elements are loosened, the elements d 'hooking remaining in position under the effect of the elastic thrust exerted by the elastomer linings. Of course, it is advantageous to definitively fix the position of the fastening elements using a screw and / or bolts.

Il y a lieu de remarquer qu'à la figure 11, pour la commodité du dessin, les panneaux ont été représentés beaucoup plus petit et beaucoup plus épais qu'ils ne le sont en réalité. En principe, pour construire une habitation, on utilisera des panneaux présentant une largeur de l'ordre de 1 mètre et une longueur de plus de 2 mètres, tandis que leur épaisseur sera de l'ordre de 6 à 8 cm.It should be noted that in Figure 11, for convenience of drawing, the panels have been shown much smaller and much thicker than they actually are. In principle, to build a house, we will use panels with a width of around 1 meter and a length of more than 2 meters, while their thickness will be around 6 to 8 cm.
