Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of wall or ceiling coverings in the form of sheets, fabrics, or other stretched large width elements, and relates to an invisible joining device, in particular for stretched fabrics.
  • the laying of PVC fabrics or sheets stretched on the ceiling or on a wall is generally carried out definitively by means of spikes or staples or by means of a removable fixing means constituted by peripheral supports integral with the ceiling or walls and by a bead equipping the edges of the sheet and cooperating by shape with the support.
  • a bead attachment generally makes it possible to perfectly solve the problems of sheet tension, adaptation to the dimensions of the premises to be equipped, as well as possible dismantling, for example to access the plenum.
  • the present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks.
  • an invisible joining device in particular for stretched fabrics, characterized in that it is essentially constituted by a support for fixing to a ceiling or to a wall, by profiles for receiving beads of hooking, arranged in the support, and by an element for closing partially, or completely by pinching, the support.
  • the invisible joining device in particular for stretched fabrics, shown by way of example in FIGS. 1 and 2, is essentially constituted by a support 1 for fixing to a ceiling or to a wall, by profiles 2 for receiving beads of attachment, arranged in the support 1, and by an element 3 of partial or total closure by pinching, of the support 1.
  • the support 1 is advantageously in the form of a profile provided, on the one hand, with a bearing face against the existing ceiling or wall or for fixing on an intermediate support and, on the other hand, on the opposite side , two longitudinal sections 2 intended to cooperate with beads for hooking the corresponding edges of the sheet or sheets to be stretched, at the joint to be produced, these sections 2 extending parallel and symmetrically with a slight inclination relative to the vertical, their outer edge being aligned with the edge 4 of one of the sides of the support 1, while the other edge protrudes from the first with the formation of an edge 5 in extension of the outer edge of the corresponding profile 2.
  • the element 3 for closing the support 1 preferably consists of a profile, substantially U-shaped, supported by a wing on the upper part of the support 1 and the other wing of which bears against the edge.
  • 4 of the support has a thickness equal to the protruding length of the other edge of the support 1 relative to the edge 4 and is provided at its external free end with an edge 6 intended to cooperate with the edge 5, the fixing of the element 3 on the support 1 being ensured by at least one screw or at least one screw-nut or stud-nut 7 assembly (FIG. 1).
  • This embodiment makes it possible to obtain a practically invisible junction, either between two sheets, or at the level of the passage cutout, during the positioning, of an element passing through a sheet.
  • this device remains removable after detachment from one or more of the other sides of the sheet in order to access the screws or the like 7 for tightening the element 3.
  • the support 1 can also be in the form of a profile for attachment to a wall or to a ceiling provided with a single profile 2 for receiving a attachment bead, the opening of which faces downwards, and cooperating with a closing element 3 screwed onto said support and applying the sheet, near its fixing edge in the profile 2, against the wall or the ceiling.
  • a support 1 is not shown in the accompanying drawing, since it can be deduced simply from FIG. 1, from which it in fact takes up the constitution of the right part of the support 1 and that of the element 3.
  • FIG. 2 represents an alternative embodiment of the invention, in which the support 1 'is constituted by a first profiled element 8 for fixing to a wall or a ceiling, provided with a first profile 2 whose opening is extended by an edge edge 9 and by a second profiled element 10 articulated by means of a hinge 11 or a similar pivoting device on the first profiled element, said second profiled element 10 also being provided with a profile 2 arranged symmetrically, in the service position, with respect to profile 2 of the first element 8, said profile 2 also being extended by an edge edge 12 and the second profiled element 10 having a reversible engagement means 13 cooperating with the first profiled element 8 leaving a very thin seal between the two edges of the sheet or sheets to be joined.
  • the support 1 ' is constituted by a first profiled element 8 for fixing to a wall or a ceiling, provided with a first profile 2 whose opening is extended by an edge edge 9 and by a second profiled element 10 articulated by means of a hinge 11 or a similar pivoting device on the first
  • the reversible latching means 13 is advantageously constituted by hooks in the form of elastic latching blades cooperating with corresponding cutouts 14 provided in element 8. Due to the provision of a very thin joint between the edges jointing, that is to say the fact that the edges 9 and 12 are not clamped against each other, it is possible to maneuver the means 13, for example by means of a spatula or any another relatively rigid and thin element, in the sense of a detachment from the cutouts 14 of the element 8, in order to allow automatic opening of the device allowing easy access to the beads for fixing the corresponding edges in the profiled elements 2 .
  • the invention it is possible to produce an invisible joining device, in particular for stretched fabrics, this device making it possible to remove all visible joining accessories and thus considerably improve the aesthetic effect.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 2 allows a release directly at the junction, after triggering of the means 13 by means of a very thin tool, such as a spatula inserted in the joint, without previously unhooking other sides of the sheet or a neighboring sheet, so that it is possible to achieve significant time savings.
  • a very thin tool such as a spatula inserted in the joint
