Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for anchoring panels with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • a known device of this type (EP-A-0132003) has a vertical holding part designed as a bent sheet metal part and a horizontally striving support part, which is also designed as a bent sheet metal part.
  • the holding part and the supporting part are assembled to form an angular holder, the connection being made in the corner corner region by spot welding.
  • the horizontal support part is designed as a sleeve bent from a relatively wide sheet metal blank, which is also held together by a welded connection. In this sleeve of the support part, a nut thread is cut, into which a horizontal threaded bolt can be screwed, which on its protruding End receiving pin for the facing panels to be attached or the like.
  • an anchoring device for facade panels in which a vertical fastening plate is welded to a horizontal base plate, on which two vertical plates are welded at a distance. Between the two vertical plates there is also a support plate which can be moved within a recess to a limited extent. An adjustment of the facade panel by pivoting is not possible with this structurally complex device.
  • the object is to develop a plate anchoring device with the features of the preamble of claim 1 in such a way that cost-effective production and an absolutely tight fit of the adjusting bolt with easy-to-carry out coarse and fine adjustment simple means can be achieved.
  • the anchoring device 1 can be attached via an anchoring element 2 to a vertical anchoring base, not shown here, such as a building wall or the like.
  • the anchoring device 1 has an angular holder 3 and a bolt 4, which has a threaded part 5 and an adjoining flat rectangular end part 6, on which pin-shaped receptacles 7 are arranged, which are transverse to the plane of the flat end part 6 and transverse to the longitudinal axis of the Bolt 4 extend.
  • On the receiving pin 7 facing plates, not shown, can be fixed, which are spaced approximately parallel to the building wall.
  • the receiving pins 7 engage in corresponding holes which are formed in the corner regions of the facing panels.
  • the anchoring device 1 can be used to make an exact adjustment in different directions, both vertically, horizontally and diagonally, and readjustments can also be carried out without the facing panels having to be removed .
  • the anchoring device 1 is also so stable overall that even very large wind, suction and pressure forces are absorbed absolutely safely, so that the Facing panels are fixed and free of play or wobble-free in front of the building wall.
  • the angular holder 3 shown in the drawing has a vertical holding part 8 which can be fixed on the building wall and which has two parallel flat holding struts 9a, 9b which are perpendicular to the surface of the anchoring base. Between the two holding struts 9a, 9b is the anchoring element 2, which can preferably be designed as a screw connection and has a U-shaped bracket 10 formed from flat iron, which overlaps the two holding struts 9a, 9b.
  • the fastening screw 11 passes through the bracket 10 in a horizontal slot, not shown here, whereby the holder 3 can be adjusted in the plane of the building wall in the horizontal direction.
  • the fastening screw 11 is fastened to the anchoring base (building wall).
  • a threaded nut 12 presses firmly against the bracket 10, so that the holder 3 is immovably fixed in the assembled state.
  • the horizontal support part 13 of the angular holder 3 consists of two mutually parallel clamping plates 14a, 14b.
  • the vertical holding struts 9a, 9b and the horizontal clamping plates 14a, 14b each lie in the same vertical parallel planes.
  • Both the holding strut 9a and the clamping plate 14a as well as the holding strut 9b and the clamping plate 14b are as angular stamped parts formed so that there is a one-piece construction of uniform material, which has a high strength and is also inexpensive to produce.
  • Suitable stiffening parts 15 can be arranged in the outer corner corner region of the holder 3, whereby the stability and bending stiffness of the holder 3 is increased.
  • the two holding struts 9a, 9b are bent toward one another and connected to one another, this connection preferably being able to be designed as a weld 16.
  • a wedge plate 17 is provided so that the anchoring device 1 can also be continuously adjusted in the vertical direction.
  • the wedge plate 17 has an edge 18 which is bent towards the holder 3 and which engages in recesses 19 which are formed on the rear side of the holding struts 9a, 9b facing the building wall.
  • the lower edge 20 of the wedge plate 17 extends obliquely and lies on the fastening screw 11. The height of the anchoring device 1 is adjusted by horizontally moving the wedge plate 17.
  • the two clamping plates 14a, 14b each have a longitudinal bead 21, which preferably extends in the horizontal direction over the entire length of the clamping plates 14a, 14b.
  • the two longitudinal beads 21 are prism-shaped in cross-section such that the bolt 4 or its threaded part 5 on two parallel longitudinal edges 22 with the Teeth 23 abuts in a line.
  • a positive centering of the bolt 4 in the longitudinal bead 21 is automatically achieved, so that particularly advantageously different bolts 4 with differently sized thread part diameters can optionally be used, always with a positive centering in the longitudinal bead 21, without the bulging of the longitudinal bead 21 the respective diameter of the threaded part 5 must be adapted or shaped.
  • each of the two clamping plates 14a, 14b each have a longitudinal bead 21, the threaded part 5 of the bolt 4 of the present exemplary embodiment is clamped in total between four parallel linear longitudinal edges 22. It is not absolutely necessary for the bolt 4 to have the toothing 23, since a simple round bolt or the like would also be held by the linearly pressed longitudinal edges 22 of the clamping plates 14a, 14b, but an additional latching lock is achieved by the toothing 23. There is also the possibility of providing teeth only on the inside of the clamping plates 14a, 14b in the region of the longitudinal beads 21.
  • FIG. 2 it can be seen that preferably in the area of all four longitudinal edges 22 of the prism-shaped longitudinal beads 21 a locking toothing 24 can be formed, which engages with the toothing 23 of the threaded part 5, whereby a particularly secure locking locking the bolt 4 is achieved.
  • the teeth 23 of the bolt 4 and the locking teeth 24 of the clamping plates 14a, 14b do not have to be the same, but can also be designed differently without further ado.
  • the locking teeth 24 may have a much smaller tooth pitch than the teeth 23 of the threaded part 5.
  • a fine-stage horizontal adjustment can be carried out only by axially displacing the bolt 4 without it having to be rotated.
  • FIG. 1 makes it clear that the two separate clamping plates 14a, 14b, which enclose the bolt 4 or its threaded part 5, are drawn together by clamping parts, which are preferably designed as clamping screws 25.
  • the threaded part 5 of the bolt 4 is absolutely firmly clamped between the clamping plates 14a, 14b due to the pretensioning force of the clamping screws 25, so that both a positive and a non-positive connection is produced.
  • the releasable clamping screws 25 according to FIG. 1 are located in the region of web parts 26 of the clamping plates 14a, 14b.
  • the longitudinal bead 21 is preferably formed symmetrically between the two web parts 26 of each clamping plate 14a, 14b.
  • the clamping screw 25 has a head 27, which can have an internal hexagon (Allen) for the engagement of an actuating tool and rests on the outside 28 of the web part 26.
  • the clamping screw 25 passes through a bore 29 in the web part 26 of one clamping plate 14b and engages with a threaded end 30 in a threaded hole 31 of the opposite web part 26 of the other clamping plate 14a.
  • a nut can also be screwed onto the threaded end 30.
  • a total of three clamping screws 25 are provided, which are arranged in the form of a triangle.
  • four or more clamping screws 25 can also be provided for bracing the clamping plates 14a, 14b against the threaded part 5 of the bolt 4. Simply by loosening the upper clamping screw 25, the clamping plates 14a, 14b can be loosened so far that the bolt 4 can be rotated about its axis.
  • the distance between the two clamping plates 14a, 14b can be increased so far that the threaded part 5 comes out of locking engagement, so that the bolt 4 can be quickly adjusted by simply moving in the axial direction.
  • the longitudinal edges 22 of the clamping plates 14a, 14b are pressed so firmly against the threaded part 5 that the bolt 4 is clamped absolutely securely against displacement and rotation in the horizontal support part 13.
  • FIG. 3 it can be seen that it can also be favorable to connect the web parts 26 of the clamping plates 14a, 14b to one another, for example the lower side of the bolt 4, by means of a non-adjustable connecting web, which can preferably be designed as a rivet bolt 32, which results in a particularly simple manufacture is possible.
  • a clamping screw 25 is provided only on the opposite (upper) side of the bolt 4, by means of which the two clamping plates 14a, 14b can be braced against one another, so that an absolute tight fit of the bolt 4 can be achieved via the linear four-point arrangement of the longitudinal edges 22.
  • FIG. 3 it can be seen particularly clearly that, owing to the prism-shaped design of the longitudinal beads 21, bolts 4 with very different diameters can be firmly clamped between the clamping plates 14a, 14b.
  • Another significant advantage of the clamping plate design according to the invention is that no additional lock nut has to be provided for the bolt 4, since the bolt locking is achieved by the clamping force applied via the clamping screws 25. Now that a lock nut is no longer required, the bolt 4 can be inserted axially into the supporting part 13 so that even the part of the flat end part 6 adjoining the threaded part 5 protrudes somewhat into the area of the beads 21, so that the Recordings 7 to be fixed facing plates can be brought up close to the anchoring device 1.
  • the anchoring device 1 represents an optimally variable anchoring system which enables versatile and easy-to-carry out adjustment options for the exact plane-parallel alignment of the facing plates and which is also easy to manufacture and has a high strength which ensures an absolutely firm hold of the facing plates in every setting position.
