Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a ceiling system for instance for a lowered ceiling system consisting of flat profile pieces supporting filter parts, coupling pieces connecting the profile pieces in airtight manner, suspending means connectable to the profile pieces and/or the coupling pieces, and locking means for locking the coupling piece and the profile piece relative to one another.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a ceiling system which consists of only a limited number of different components, is easily adaptable to a situation occurring at the assembly location and is simple to assemble, while a simple and certain sealing is provided.
  • the locking means take the form of a locking pin engaging in a substantially cylindrical open channel and provided on its periphery with a sealing ring, and the coupling piece has a portion complementing the open channel and that in this complementing portion a passage is provided for a screw bolt engaging in the locking pin.
  • the ceiling system according to the invention comprises universal profile pieces, three types of coupling piece and universal locking means.
  • the profile pieces are embodied such that it is possible to adapt them to the dimensions encountered on site by simply sawing to size.
  • the profile pieces are substantially U-shaped, as are the coupling pieces which have portions which can be arranged clampingly between the legs of the profile pieces in close-fitting manner.
  • the clampingly arrangable portions are preferably received in the profile pieces with interposing of a gasket such as a rubber strip.
  • the gasket may additionally be a sealing material applied by means of immersion or spraying on.
  • the open channel is also involved in the suspending of the ceiling system.
  • a suspending pin is situated in the channel at the position of a suspension point, which pin is provided with a passage such as a threaded hole for the suspending means. Because the open channel extends along the entire length of the profile pieces the position of the suspension points is very flexible. This in contrast to some known systems wherein the suspension points are fixed.
  • the coupling pieces are provided with a passage opening for through-feed, for instance of cables or sprinkler installations.
  • a passage opening is not in use as such it is preferably closed off by a cylindrical insert having legs that run parallel. To remove the insert the flexible legs are pinched together. The seal between the coupling piece and the insert is ensured by an O-ring arranged therebetween.
  • the inserts can in addition be adapted for through-feed of cables and the like.
  • Both the profile pieces and the coupling pieces are substantially U-shaped. Due to the presence of the open channel in the profile pieces and the complementing portion in the coupling pieces, both are divided into two compartments. The compartments are filled for instance with vaseline or a gel for receiving the filter sides therein.
  • Figure 1 shows a lowered filter ceiling 1 which consists of filter panels 2, profile pieces 3 and coupling pieces 4.
  • the profile pieces 3 are substantially U-shaped and each sub-divided into two compartments 6 and 7 which are filled with a gel 8 into which the legs 9, 10 of the respective filter panels are received.
  • the gel 8 provides an airtight seal between the clean air side 12 and the outside air side 11 of the room area.
  • the profile piece 3 is provided with a substantially open channel 13 in which is received a suspending rod 14 which is connected to suspending means 16 via a screw bolt with eye 15.
  • the ceiling further has coupling pieces 4 which are provided with a fully closed insert 17.
  • FIG. 2 shows an angle-shaped coupling piece 4 according to the invention.
  • the coupling piece is provided on its extremities 18 with a gasket 19 for providing an airtight closure between the coupling piece 4 and profile piece 3. Both pieces are mutually fixed by means of a locking pin 20 which is received in a substantially open channel 13 which is complemented to a cylinder by the ridge 5 on the coupling piece 4.
  • the locking pin 20 is provided on its periphery with an O-ring 21.
  • the locking pin 20 contains a passage 22 for receiving screw bolts 26 with interposing of a ring 24. After assembly the screw bolt 26 is situated in the opening 28 of coupling piece 4.
  • the compartments 6 and 7 are filled with for instance vaseline or gel prior to arranging of the filter panels.
  • the ceiling system according to the invention is very suitable for the use of gel. This in contrast to present systems where the gel, which is poured into the profile in liquid state, runs out again if the sealing mastic is not properly applied.
  • the figure further shows the passage opening 39 for instance for cables or a sprinkler installation.
  • Figure 3 shows two alternative possibilities for arranging the filter panels 2.
  • compartments 30, 31 which are formed on the filter panel are filled with gel. It can be seen particularly in figure 3 that in this manner a completely flat bottom surface of the ceiling results.
  • Figure 3a likewise clearly shows the groove 32 which is arranged in the profile piece 3 and which can for instance be used in clean room areas to receive partition walls.
  • Figure 4 shows three alternative embodiments of insert pieces.
  • Figure 4a shows a completely closed insert piece 17 which is provided with parallel flexible legs 33. On their extremities the legs have protruding portions 34 with which they are clamped into the passage opening 39.
  • the insert 17 is situated in the passage opening with interposing of an O-ring 27.
  • Figure 4b shows a provision for arranging for instance a sprinkler installation.
  • a pipe 35 is fixed in the insert 36 by means of an open cap with snap-in fitting 37.
  • the pipe 35 is received in the coupled insert-snap ring with interposing of a seal 38.
  • the insert piece 36 is received in the passage opening with interposing of an O-ring 27.
  • figure 4c shows an insert piece 39 provided with screw thread 40 for receiving a cable coupling 41.
  • the insert piece 39 is received in the passage opening with interposing of an O-ring 27.
  • the present invention therefore provides an easy to assemble ceiling system which is very flexible in various respects (adaptability, suspending options) and in addition provides a fully airtight seal between outside air side and clean air side.
