Abstract

The wall or ceiling panel (1) of sheet metal has a panel web face (2), from both longitudinal edges of which edge flanges (3,4), which extend parallel to one another but, at an angle (W), obliquely to the normal direction to the panel web face (2), are angled rearwards. This makes it possible to remove and exchange individually the panel (1) between adjacent panels (1',1'') of a wall composite construction. Provision can be made between the edge flanges (3,4) of adjacent panels (1,1',1'') for positive catch connections which permit the mutual support of adjacent panels when forces act perpendicularly to the panel web face (2). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Decken- und Wandapaneel nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a ceiling and wall panel according to the preamble of claim 1.

Die abgewinkelten Randflansche geben den Paneelen eine erhöhte Formfestigkeit. In Anwendungsbereichen, in denen die Paneele zur Aufnahme von verhältnismäßig großen Kräften senkrecht zur Ebene der Paneelstegfläche ausgelegt sein müssen, reicht die Formfestigkeit der einzelnen Paneele nicht aus, um diesen Anforderungen zu genügen. Solche Anwendungsfälle liegen vor allem im Schiffsbau und hier insbesondere bei Marinefahrzeugen vor.The angled edge flanges give the panels increased dimensional stability. In areas of application in which the panels have to be designed to absorb relatively large forces perpendicular to the plane of the panel web surface, the dimensional stability of the individual panels is not sufficient to meet these requirements. Such applications are mainly used in shipbuilding and especially in marine vehicles.

Um die Steifigkeit einer aus Paneelen zusammengesetzten Trennwand gegenüber quer zur Wandfläche verlaufenden Kräften zu erhöhen, ist es bekannt (DE-A 28 32 106), benachbarte Paneele durch in die Trennfuge eingelegte Federkeile zu verbinden. Es ist auch bekannnt (DE-A 34 39 046), die Längsränder der Paneele mehrfach rechtwinklig in solcher Weise abzukanten, daß an den Verbindungsstellen benachbarter Paneele ineinandergreifende und einrastbare Verbindungen entstehen, die sogar eine Abstützung der einen Trennwandaußenfläche an der gegenüberliegenden Trennwandaußenfläche ermöglichen. Diese Paneelen sind jedoch nicht einzeln demontierbar.In order to increase the rigidity of a partition composed of panels with respect to forces running transversely to the wall surface, it is known (DE-A 28 32 106) to connect adjacent panels by means of spring wedges inserted into the parting line. It is also known (DE-A 34 39 046) to fold the longitudinal edges of the panels several times at right angles in such a way that interlocking and snap-in connections are formed at the junctures of adjacent panels, which even allow one outer surface of the partition to be supported on the opposite outer surface of the partition. However, these panels cannot be dismantled individually.

Bei anderen bekannten Decken- und Wandpaneelen (DE-A 34 39 046) sind die Randflansche rechtwinklig von der Paneelstegfläche abgewinkelt. Die profilierten Randflansche benachbarter Paneele greifen einrastend ineinander. Ein gesonderter Ausbau einzelner, beispielsweise beschädigter Paneele ist deshalb nicht möglich.In other known ceiling and wall panels (DE-A 34 39 046), the edge flanges are angled at right angles from the panel web surface. The profiled edge flanges of adjacent panels snap into place into each other. A separate removal of individual, for example damaged, panels is therefore not possible.

Bei bekannten Paneelen der eingangs genannten Gattung (DE-B- 1 180 507) liegen die schrägen Randflansche benachbarter Paneele flach aneinander, ohne sich jedoch formschlüssig in beiden Richtungen aneinander abzustützen. Dadurch kann eine auf ein einzelnes Paneel wirkende Kraft nicht oder nicht ausreichend auf die benachbarten Paneelen abgetragen werden.In known panels of the type mentioned at the beginning (DE-B-1 180 507), the oblique edge flanges of adjacent panels lie flat against one another, but without being positively supported against one another in both directions. As a result, a force acting on a single panel cannot be dissipated, or cannot be dissipated sufficiently, on the adjacent panels.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Decken- und Wandpaneel der eingangs genannten Gattung zu schaffen, das aus einem Decken- oder Wandverbund nachträglich einzeln ausgebaut und ausgetauscht werden kann und das dabei aber eine gegenseitige formschlüssige Abstützung benachbarter Paneele ermöglicht.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a ceiling and wall panel of the type mentioned, which can be subsequently expanded and replaced individually from a ceiling or wall composite and which, however, enables mutual positive support of adjacent panels.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with the characterizing features of claim 1.

Die Paneelstegfläche und die beiden Randflansche bilden somit drei Seiten eines flachen Parallelogramms, dessen vierte Seite offen ist. Wenn ein solches Paneel aus einem Decken- oder Wandverbund einzeln ausgebaut werden soll, wird die Befestigung, beispielsweise Nietung, an einem oder beiden Enden des Paneels gelöst. Das Paneel wird sodann um seine Längsrichtung gedreht und kann dabei zwischen den beiden benachbarten, verbleibenden Paneelen herausgedreht werden. In entgegengesetzter Richtung erfolgt das Einsetzen eines neuen Paneels zwischen bestehender Paneele einer Trennwand oder einer Decke.The panel web surface and the two edge flanges thus form three sides of a flat parallelogram, the fourth side of which is open. If such a panel is to be removed individually from a ceiling or wall composite, the attachment, for example riveting, is released at one or both ends of the panel. The panel is then rotated about its longitudinal direction and can be unscrewed between the two adjacent, remaining panels. In the opposite direction, a new panel is inserted between existing panels of a partition or a ceiling.

Um die geforderte Demontierbarkeit einzelner Paneele auch bei einer formschlüssigen Abstützung jedes Paneels an den beiden benachbarten Paneelen beizubehalten, ist vorgesehen, daß entlang einem der beiden Randflansche federnd abgestützte Federzungen nach außen aus dem Randflansch vorragen, die in Paneellängsrichtung jeweils an ihren beiden Kanten angeschrägt sind, und daß der jeweils andere Randflansch der Federzungen entsprechende Längsschlitze aufweist.In order to ensure that individual panels can be dismantled, even if each panel is positively supported on the two adjacent panels provided that along one of the two edge flanges spring-supported spring tongues protrude outward from the edge flange, which are beveled in the longitudinal direction of the panel at their two edges, and that the other edge flange of the spring tongues has corresponding longitudinal slots.

Diese Federzungen greifen im eingebauten Zustand des Paneels in die jeweils zugeordneten Längsschlitze des benachbarten Randflansches ein und bewirken somit in Normalrichtung zur Wandebene eine gegenseitige Abstützung der Paneele. Auch wenn die Formfestigkeit des einzelnen Paneels zur Aufnahme einer gegen die Wandfläche gerichteten Kraft nicht ausreicht, ergibt die Abstützung an den benachbarten Paneelen eine ausreichend hohe Widerstandskraft der aus den Paneelen aufgebauten Wandfläche.In the installed state of the panel, these spring tongues engage in the respectively assigned longitudinal slots of the adjacent edge flange and thus bring about mutual support of the panels in the normal direction to the wall plane. Even if the dimensional stability of the individual panel is not sufficient to absorb a force directed against the wall surface, the support on the adjacent panels results in a sufficiently high resistance of the wall surface built up from the panels.

Trotz dieser gegenseitigen formschlüssigen Verbindung ist die Demontierbarkeit einzelner Paneele nicht beeinträchtigt. Durch ihre angeschrägten Kanten werden die Federzungen aus den Längsschlitzen, in die sie eingreifen, zurückgedrückt, sobald das Paneel in seiner Längsrichtung verschoben wird. Zum Ausbau eines einzelnen Paneels genügt es, dieses nach Lösen der Befestigung an den Paneelenden in seiner Längsrichtung zu verschieben. Dabei werden alle Federzungen, die dieses Paneel abstützten, ausgerastet, so daß das Paneel anschließend in der schon beschriebenen Weise gedreht und aus dem Wandverbund herausgenommen werden kann. In umgekehrter Reihenfolge erfolgt das Einsetzen eines neuen Paneels.Despite this mutual positive connection, the ability to disassemble individual panels is not impaired. Due to their bevelled edges, the spring tongues are pushed back out of the longitudinal slots in which they engage as soon as the panel is moved in its longitudinal direction. To remove a single panel, it is sufficient to move it in its longitudinal direction after loosening the fastening at the panel ends. All spring tongues that supported this panel are disengaged so that the panel can then be rotated in the manner already described and removed from the wall assembly. A new panel is installed in the reverse order.

Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, daß der eine Randflansch, der im stumpfen Winkel zur Paneelstegfläche verläuft, einen entgegengesetzt zur Paneelstegfläche abgewinkelten Stützrandstreifen aufweist. An diesen Stützrandstreifen stützt sich der freie Rand des benachbarten Randflansches ab, so daß bereits hierdurch an einem Paneel angreifende Kräfte auch von den benachbarten Paneelen mitgetragen werden.It is preferably provided that the one edge flange, which runs at an obtuse angle to the panel web surface, has a support edge strip angled opposite to the panel web surface. The free edge of the adjacent edge flange is supported on these supporting edge strips from, so that forces acting on a panel are also borne by the adjacent panels.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen des Erfindungsgedankens sind Gegenstand weiterer Unteransprüche.Advantageous embodiments of the inventive concept are the subject of further dependent claims.

  • 2 is an enlarged section along the line II-II in Fig. 1,

Das in Fig. 1 dargestellte, aus Blech bestehende Paneel 1 kann als Decken- oder Wandpaneel Verwendung finden. Nachfolgend wird die Verwendung als Wandpaneel beschrieben. In Fig. 1 ist angedeutet, daß das Paneel 1 in einem Wandverbund zwischen benachbarten Paneelen 1' und 1'' angeordnet ist.1, consisting of sheet metal 1 can be used as a ceiling or wall panel. Below is the use as a wall panel described. In Fig. 1 it is indicated that the panel 1 is arranged in a wall composite between adjacent panels 1 'and 1''.

Wie man aus den Fig. 1 und 2 erkennt, weist das Paneel 1 eine in der Wandebene liegende und die Paneelsichtfläche bildende Paneelstegfläche 2 auf. Von den beiden Längsrändern der Paneelstegfläche 2 sind zwei Randflansche 3 und 4 nach hinten abgewinkelt. Die beiden Randflansche 3, 4, die angenähert gleich breit und parallel zueinander gerichtet sind, verlaufen unter einem Winkel W schräg zur Normalrichtung zur Paneelstegfläche 2.As can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2, the panel 1 has a panel web surface 2 lying in the wall plane and forming the panel visible surface. Two edge flanges 3 and 4 are angled backwards from the two longitudinal edges of the panel web surface 2. The two edge flanges 3, 4, which are approximately the same width and parallel to one another, run at an angle W obliquely to the normal direction to the panel web surface 2.

Der eine Randflansch 3 verläuft somit im spitzen Winkel zur Paneelstegfläche 2. Der Randflansch 3 weist an seiner freien Kante einen nach innen umgefalzten Randstreifen 5 auf.One edge flange 3 thus runs at an acute angle to the panel web surface 2. The edge flange 3 has an edge strip 5 folded inwards on its free edge.

Der gegenüberliegende Randflansch 4, der in einem stumpfen Winkel zur Paneelstegfläche 2 verläuft, weist einen entgegengesetzt zur Paneelstegfläche 2 abewinkelten Stützrandstreifen 6 auf, der vorzugsweise höchstens im rechten Winkel zum Randflansch 4 gerichtet ist.The opposite edge flange 4, which runs at an obtuse angle to the panel web surface 2, has a supporting edge strip 6 angled opposite to the panel web surface 2, which is preferably directed at most at right angles to the edge flange 4.

Wie man aus den Fig. 2 und 3 erkennt, liegt im montierten Zustand der umgefalzte Randstreifen 5 des einen Randflanschs 3 in dem zwischen dem anderen Randflansch 4 und seinem Stützrandstreifen 6 gebildeten Winkel und kann sich dort abstützen, wenn von außen eine Kraft auf die Paneelstegfläche 2 ausgeübt wird.As can be seen from FIGS. 2 and 3, in the assembled state, the folded edge strip 5 of one edge flange 3 lies at the angle formed between the other edge flange 4 and its supporting edge strip 6 and can be supported there when a force is exerted on the panel web surface from the outside 2 is exercised.

Der Ausbau des einzelnen Paneels 1 aus dem Wandverbund ist in Fig. 2 mit strichpunktierten Linien angedeutet. Das Paneel 1 wird in der durch den Pfeil Q angedeuteten Richtung an der Seite des Randflansches 3 nach vorn bewegt und damit ohne Zwängung aus dem Wandverbund herausgenommen, nachdem die Befestigung des Paneels 1 an seinem einen oder an beiden Enden, beispielsweise eine Nietung, gelöst wurde. In umgekehrter Richtung erfolgt der Einbau eines Paneels 1 in einen bestehenden Wandverbund.The removal of the individual panel 1 from the wall composite is indicated in Fig. 2 with dash-dotted lines. The panel 1 is moved forward in the direction indicated by the arrow Q on the side of the edge flange 3 and is thus removed from the wall composite without being forced after the panel 1 has been fastened on one or both ends, for example a rivet, has been released. In the opposite direction, a panel 1 is installed in an existing wall composite.

Wie in den Fig. 3 bis 5 dargestellt ist, sind an der Innenseite des Randflansches 4 über dessen Länge verteilt mehrere Blattfedern 7 angebracht, die mit ihrem einen Ende am Randflansch 4 befestigt, beispielsweise angenietet sind. An ihrem freien Ende ist die Blattfeder 7 zu einer Federzunge 8 abgewinkelt, die durch einen Längsschlitz 9 im Randflansch 4 hindurch in einen Längsschlitz 10 im Randflansch 3 ragt.As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, a plurality of leaf springs 7 are attached to the inside of the edge flange 4, distributed over its length, which are fixed at one end to the edge flange 4, for example riveted. At its free end, the leaf spring 7 is angled to a spring tongue 8 which projects through a longitudinal slot 9 in the edge flange 4 into a longitudinal slot 10 in the edge flange 3.

Man erkennt aus den Fig. 4 und 5, daß die Federzunge 8 an ihren beiden nach oben und unten gerichteten Kanten 8a und 8b in Paneellängsrichtung angeschrägt ist. Dies ergibt bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel eine insgesamt abgerundete Kante der Federzunge 8 in ihrem in den Längsschlitz 10 eingreifenden Abschnitt.It can be seen from FIGS. 4 and 5 that the spring tongue 8 is beveled in the longitudinal direction of the panel at its two upward and downward edges 8a and 8b. In the exemplary embodiment shown, this results in an overall rounded edge of the spring tongue 8 in its section engaging in the longitudinal slot 10.

Im eingebauten Zustand des Paneels, der in den Fig. 3 und 4 dargestellt ist, stellt die in den Längsschlitz 10 eingreifende Federzunge 8 eine formschlüssige Rastverbindung zwischen den benachbarten Paneelen dar. Wenn auf eines dieser beiden benachbarten Paneele eine Kraft senkrecht zur Paneelstegfläche ausgeübt wird, erfolgt über die Federzunge 8 und die Ränder des Längsschlitzes 10 eine Abstützung an dem benachbarten Paneel. Dadurch wird eine Steifigkeit der Wandfläche erzielt, die wesentlich höher ist als die Formsteifigkeit, die sich aus der Form und den Materialeigenschaften eines einzelnen Paneels 1 ergibt.In the installed state of the panel, which is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the spring tongue 8 engaging in the longitudinal slot 10 constitutes a positive locking connection between the adjacent panels. If a force is exerted perpendicularly to the panel web surface on one of these two adjacent panels, is carried out on the adjacent panel via the spring tongue 8 and the edges of the longitudinal slot 10. This results in a stiffness of the wall surface that is significantly higher than the stiffness that results from the shape and the material properties of an individual panel 1.

Obwohl die Federzungen 8 im zusammengebauten Zustand der Trennwand von außen nicht zugänglich sind, ermöglichen die angeschrägten Kanten 8a und 8b einen Ausbau jedes einzelnen Paneels 1. Hierzu genügt es, das auszubauende Paneel nach Lösen seiner Endbefestigungen in seiner Längsrichtung gegenüber den benachbarten Paneelen zu verschieben. Diese Relativverschiebung ist in Fig. 5 mit dem Pfeil P angedeutet. Die schräge Kante 8a bzw. 8b kommt mit dem Ende des Längsschlitzes 10 in Eingriff; die Federzunge 8 wird aus dem Längsschlitz 10 gegen die Kraft der Blattfeder 7 herausgedrückt, wodurch die formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen benachbarten Paneelen aufgehoben wird. Aus dieser in Längsrichtung verschobenen Stellung kann das Paneel 1 in der schon beschriebenen Weise durch eine Drehung in Richtung des Pfeiles Q (Fig. 2) aus dem Wandverbund gelöst werden. Der Einbau eines Paneels erfolgt in entgegengesetzter Richtung.Although the spring tongues 8 are not accessible from the outside in the assembled state of the partition, the bevelled edges 8a and 8b enable each individual panel 1 to be removed. To do this, it suffices to remove what is to be removed After releasing its end fastenings, move the panel in its longitudinal direction with respect to the adjacent panels. This relative displacement is indicated by the arrow P in FIG. 5. The oblique edge 8a or 8b comes into engagement with the end of the longitudinal slot 10; the spring tongue 8 is pressed out of the longitudinal slot 10 against the force of the leaf spring 7, whereby the positive connection between adjacent panels is canceled. From this position shifted in the longitudinal direction, the panel 1 can be detached from the wall composite in the manner already described by rotating in the direction of the arrow Q (FIG. 2). A panel is installed in the opposite direction.

Fig. 6 zeigt im senkrechten Schnitt eine auf ihren beiden Seiten aus den beschriebenen Paneelen 1 aufgebaute Trennwand. Jeweils die oberen Enden der Paneele 1 liegen an der Innenseite einer umgekehrt U-förmigen Deckenschiene 11 an. Im Inneren der Deckenschiene 11 ist eine ebenfalls umgekehrt U-förmige Federschiene 12 angebracht, die mit nach unten ragenden Federzungen 13 die oberen Enden der Paneele 1 von innen gegen die Flansche der Deckenschiene 11 drückt.Fig. 6 shows in vertical section a partition constructed on both sides of the panels 1 described. The upper ends of the panels 1 each abut the inside of an inverted U-shaped ceiling rail 11. In the interior of the ceiling rail 11 there is also an inverted U-shaped spring rail 12 which, with spring tongues 13 projecting downwards, presses the upper ends of the panels 1 from the inside against the flanges of the ceiling rail 11.

Bei dem Beispiel nach Fig. 6 sind die Paneele 1 an ihren unteren Enden mit nach oben ragenden Laschen 14 von Bodenwinkeln 15 vernietet. Nach einem Aufbohren dieser Nietverbindungen können die Paneele 1 in der schon beschriebenen Weise angehoben und anschließend zwischen den benachbarten Paneelen herausgedreht werden.In the example according to FIG. 6, the panels 1 are riveted at their lower ends with upwardly projecting tabs 14 from floor angles 15. After drilling these riveted joints, the panels 1 can be raised in the manner already described and then screwed out between the adjacent panels.

In Fig. 6 ist auch dargestellt, daß die gleichen Paneele 1 als Deckenpaneele Verwendung finden können. Bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Deckenpaneele 1 an ihren Enden an Tragwinkeln 16 befestigt, beispielsweise angenietet, die seitlich an den Deckenschienen 11 angebracht sind. Bei der Verwendung der Paneele 1 als Deckenpaneele kann in vielen Anwendungsfällen auf die beschriebene formschlüssige Rastverbindung zwischen benachbarten Paneelen verzichtet werden, weil bei Deckenpaneelen keine so hohen Kräfte senkrecht zur Deckenfläche aufzunehmen sind.In Fig. 6 it is also shown that the same panels 1 can be used as ceiling panels. In the illustrated embodiment, the ceiling panels 1 are fastened at their ends to support brackets 16, for example riveted, which are attached laterally to the ceiling rails 11. When using the panels 1 as In many applications, ceiling panels can dispense with the described positive locking connection between adjacent panels because ceiling panels do not have to absorb such high forces perpendicular to the ceiling surface.

Fig. 7 zeigt eine abgewandelte Ausführungsform des Bodenwinkels 15'. Sein nach oben ragender Winkelschenkel 16 weist an seinem oberen Rand mehrere nach innen abgekröpfte Laschen 17 auf, zwischen denen sich jeweils vordere Zungen 18 befinden.
