Definitions

  • This invention is concerned with improvements in or relating to a roof structure and tile mountings included therein, in particular a roof structure according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Some plain tiles as herein defined are not provided with conventional hanging nibs and are usually fastened to the battens using nails for which purpose one or more apertures are normally provided, i.e. pre-punched, through headlap portions of the tiles. It will be readily appreciated that while the hanging nibs of conventional tiles enable the accurate positioning lengthwise of a roof of such tiles, uniformity in laying tiles without a hanging nib is a hit-and-miss affair.
  • FR-A-2461072 relates to an arrangement for securing corrugated panels or shakes to a roof in overlapping relationship with the arrangement comprising a preformed metal batten adapted in use to accommodate an upper end portion of an associated panel or shake. Spiked portions formed integrally with said battens and upstanding therefrom pierce like panels or shakes extending in overlapping relationship to secure said panels or shakes on a roof.
  • FR-A-1 382 637 discloses a roof structure in which plastic tiles are provided with perforated ribs. Pegs extending parallel to the plane of the roof structure are provided on tile battens to engage the perforations in a push-fit relationship. Such an arrangement is not suitable for clay and concrete tiles.
  • the present invention seeks to overcome or at least mitigate the shortcomings met hitherto in hanging concrete or clay tiles without hanging nibs or equivalent provision.
  • the present invention conveniently provides a roof structure comprising a mounting for a tile, wherein the mounting comprises tile engaging means upstanding from tile battens and provided by spaced-apart pegs, said pegs being received, in use, in a push-fit relationship within associated apertures formed in a tile mounted on said mounting, characterised in that said pegs extend normally, or substantially so, to the plane of the roof structure.
  • the spaced-apart pegs are provided on a support adapted for use with a conventional wooden tile batten wherein the support may conveniently be provided by a unitary moulding with the pegs formed integrally therewith.
  • the pegs are of rounded cross-section or substantially so and the moulding is formed from a plastics material, preferably polyethylene.
  • the spaced-apart pegs may conveniently be provided on a tile batten of mouldable material.
  • the pegs are moulded integrally with the tile batten and preferably there are at least two such spaced-apart pegs of rounded cross-section or substantially so.
  • the tile batten is formed from a plastics material, preferably polyethylene.
  • the present invention also conveniently provides a method of tiling a roof comprising the steps of:
  • the mounting 2 is a unitary moulding of polyethylene or the like plastics material and comprises a hook portion 4 adapted in use to latch over the hanging surface 6 of a batten 8, see Figure 1.
  • Apertured bosses 10 are provided in the mounting 2 to facilitate the fixing of the mounting 2 to the batten 8 using two nails 12 as shown in Figure 1.
  • the mounting 2 further comprises tile engaging means provided by spaced-apart pegs 14 and 16 of rounded cross-section or substantially so, see Figure 1.
  • the mounting 2 is provided with strengthening ribs 20, 22, 23 and 24 as shown in Figure 1.
  • mountings 2 are fixed by nails 12 to the battens 8 at spaced intervals therealong to provide a series of pairs of upstanding spaced-apart pegs 14 and 16 which extend normally, or substantially so, to the roof on which the battens 8 are affixed.
  • Tiles are thereafter affixed to the roof by mounting successive tiles on associated ones of the pairs of pegs 14 and 16, the tiles each having complementary apertures which are a force-fit over said pegs 14 and 16 whereby the tiles are positively affixed to the roof.
  • a pair of pegs 14a and 16a are integrally moulded together with a plastics batten 30, see Figure 2.
  • the modified battens 30 are utilised for tiling a roof by a method which is essentially the same as that hereinbefore described with reference to the batten and mountings of Figure 1, in that the battens 30 are fixed to a roof in conventional manner such that the pegs 14a and 16a extend normally, or substantially so, to the roof on which the battens 30 are affixed.

Abstract

Un dispositif permet d'assujettir des tuiles dépourvues de tenon sur un toit. Il comprend des chevilles écartées (14, 16) construites d'un bloc avec une fixation (2) de matière plastique moulée prévue pour être utilisée avec une volige de bois conventionnelle (8), ou bien dans une version modifiée, ces chevilles écartées (14a, 16a) sont moulées d'un bloc avec une volige de matière plastique (30). L'utilisation consiste à encastrer, par ajustement serré, des ouvertures complémentaires de tuiles à fixer sur un toit sur ces chevilles (14, 16 ou 14a, 16a), ce qui assujettit solidement les tuiles au toit.

Claims (12)

  1. Structure de toit comprenant une fixation (2) pour une tuile, dans laquelle la fixation comprend des moyens destinés à engager les tuiles, faisant saillie depuis des voliges pour tuiles (8, 30) et constitués de broches espacées (14, 16, 14a, 16a), lesdites broches étant reçues, en fonctionnement, en relation d'assemblage par emboîtement, dans des ouvertures associées formées dans une tuile montée sur ladite fixation, caractérisée en ce que lesdites broches (14, 16, 14a, 16a) s'étendent perpendiculairement, ou substantiellement perpendiculairement, au plan de la structure de toit.
  2. Structure de toit selon la revendication 1, dans laquelle les broches espacées (14, 16) sont prévues sur un support monté sur une volige (8) en bois conventionnelle pour tuiles.
  3. Structure de toit selon l'une ou l'autre des revendications 1 et 2, dans laquelle le support est constitué d'un moulage unitaire avec lequel les broches (14, 16) sont formées intégralement.
  4. Structure de toit selon les revendications 2 et 3, dans laquelle les broches (14, 16) ont une section transversale circulaire ou substantiellement circulaire.
  5. Structure de toit selon l'une ou l'autre des revendications 3 et 4, dans laquelle le moulage est formé à partir d'un matériau en plastique.
  6. Structure de toit selon la revendication 5, dans laquelle le matériau en plastique est du polyéthylène.
  7. Structure de toit selon la revendication 1, dans laquelle les broches espacées (14a, 16a) sont prévues sur une volige (30) pour tuiles, en matériau moulable.
  8. Structure de toit selon la revendication 7, dans laquelle les broches (14a, 16a) sont moulées intégralement avec la volige (30) pour tuiles.
  9. Structure de toit selon la revendication 8, dans laquelle les broches (14a, 16a) ont une section transversale circulaire ou substantiellement circulaire.
  10. Structure de toit selon l'une quelconque des revendications 7, 8 et 9, dans laquelle la volige (30) pour tuiles est formée à partir d'un matériau en plastique.
  11. Structure de toit selon la revendication 10, dans laquelle le matériau en plastique est du polyéthylène.
  12. Méthode de couverture de toit avec des tuiles, comprenant les étapes consistant à :
    a) fournir sur les voliges (8, 30) pour tuiles d'un toit, ou en association avec celles-ci, une série de moyens d'engagement de tuiles constitués par des broches espacées et
    b) couvrir le toit de tuiles en montant lesdites tuiles sur les broches associées des broches espacées, grâce à quoi les tuiles sont retenues sur le toit,
    caractérisée en ce que lesdites broches (14, 16, 14a, 16a) s'étendent perpendiculairement, ou substantiellement perpendiculairement, en fonctionnement, au toit sur lequel les voliges pour tuiles sont fixées et en ce que lesdites tuiles sont pourvues d'ouvertures qui permettent de monter les tuiles sur lesdites broches en relation d'ajustement serré.
