Description

REVETEMENT DE FAÇADEFACADE CLADDING
La présente invention concerne un revêtement de façade constitué d' un bardage métallique comportant une structure de support et des éléments de bardage constitués de profils extrudés en alliage d'aluminium ou en matière synthétique, ces profils étant pourvus de moyens d' accouplement rapide pour assurer une liaison rigide entre eux lorsqu'ils sont juxtaposés deux à deux .The present invention relates to a facade cladding consisting of metal cladding comprising a support structure and cladding elements consisting of extruded aluminum alloy or plastic profiles, these profiles being provided with quick coupling means to ensure a rigid connection between them when they are juxtaposed two by two.
On connaît dé à divers types de revêtements de façade par bardage au moyen de panneaux métalliques façonnés par pliage. La mise en place et la fixation de ces panneaux s' effectuent à l' aide d' une mul¬ titude de vis ou de rivets et représentent des opérations longues et fastidieuses . En outre, ces panneaux métalliques ont généralement une forme géométrique relativement simple , vu que le pliage ne permet pas d' obtenir des formes fantaisistes très élaborées . Enfin , le pliage permet difficilement de réaliser des moyens d'accouplement des panneaux qui doivent être juxtaposés et fixés individuellement aux structures portantes , d' où la nécessité d' utiliser un très grand nombre de vis ou de rivets avec comme conséquence une esthétique médiocre et peu adaptée à une construction faite avec une certaine recherche architecturale.Various types of facade cladding are known for cladding by means of metal panels shaped by folding. The positioning and fixing of these panels is carried out using a multitude of screws or rivets and represents long and tedious operations. In addition, these metal panels generally have a relatively simple geometric shape, since folding does not allow very elaborate fanciful shapes to be obtained. Finally, folding makes it difficult to produce means for coupling the panels which must be juxtaposed and individually fixed to the supporting structures, hence the need to use a very large number of screws or rivets with as a consequence a poor aesthetics and unsuitable for a construction made with a certain architectural research.
Pour remédier à ces inconvénients à la fois d'ordre pratique et d'ordre esthétique , des constructeurs ont réalisé des revêtements de façade comportant des panneaux extrudés pouvant être accouplés par emboîtement latéral . De tels panneaux sont , par exemple, illustrés par les brevets US 3, 085 , 367 et US 4 ,063, 396 , ou par la demande de brevet allemand DE-A-1 297 836. Toutefois , le mode de montage de ces panneaux n' est pas particulièrement aisé étant donné que chaque panneau doit être fixé individuellement sur une structure portante classique, ce qui ne simplifie pas sa mise en place et la rend coûteuse et malaisée .To overcome these drawbacks, both practical and aesthetic, manufacturers have made facade coverings comprising extruded panels which can be coupled by lateral interlocking. Such panels are, for example, illustrated by US patents 3, 085, 367 and US 4, 063, 396, or by the German patent application DE-A-1 297 836. However, the method of mounting these panels is not particularly easy since each panel must be fixed individually to a conventional supporting structure, which does not simplify its installation and makes it expensive and awkward.
La présente invention se propose de pallier ces inconvénients en réalisant un revêtement de façade tel que défini ci-dessus et caracté- πsé en ce que ladite structure de support comporte des éléments longitudinaux profilés disposés verticalement à intervalles réguliers et comportant une gorge longitudinale axiale ayant des parois intérieures pourvues de cannelures parallèles à l' axe, ces cannelures étant agen- cées pour recevoir des vis de montage des éléments de bardage , ces vis ayant un fût fileté agencé pour coopérer avec lesdites cannelures des gorges des éléments longitudinaux profilés .The present invention proposes to overcome these drawbacks by providing a facade cladding as defined above and characteristic πsé in that said support structure comprises longitudinal profiled elements arranged vertically at regular intervals and comprising an axial longitudinal groove having inner walls provided with grooves parallel to the axis, these grooves being arranged to receive mounting screws of the cladding elements, these screws having a threaded barrel arranged to cooperate with said grooves of the grooves of the longitudinal profiled elements.
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré , lesdits éléments longitudinaux profilés sont obtenus par extrusion et réalisés en alliage d' aluminium .According to a preferred embodiment, said profiled longitudinal elements are obtained by extrusion and made of aluminum alloy.
De façon avantageuse, lesdits éléments longitudinaux profilés ont une forme générale en T , la partie centrale du T comportant ladite gorge longitudinale axiale et une languette disposée dans le prolongement de la gorge , et la partie transversale se décomposant en deux ailettes latérales respectivement disposées de part et d' autre de ladite gorge .Advantageously, said profiled longitudinal elements have a general T shape, the central part of the T comprising said axial longitudinal groove and a tongue arranged in the extension of the groove, and the transverse part breaking down into two lateral fins respectively arranged in part. and other of said throat.
De préférence, ladite gorge longitudinale axiale s' étend sur une partie seulement de la hauteur de la partie centrale en T .Preferably, said axial longitudinal groove extends over only part of the height of the central T-shaped part.
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré , ladite structure de support comporte également des équerres coudées , dont un bras est pourvu d'au moins une ouverture pour le passage d' une vis de fixation murale , et dont l' autre bras comporte une fente agencée pour recevoir au moins partiellement la languette de la partie centrale du T .According to a preferred embodiment, said support structure also comprises angled brackets, one arm of which is provided with at least one opening for the passage of a wall fixing screw, and the other arm of which has a slot arranged for receive at least partially the tongue of the central part of the T.
Dans ce mode de réalisation préféré , ledit bras pourvu de la fente comporte un logement sensiblement cylindrique, ménagé sur toute sa largeur , perpendiculairement à ladite fente , ce logement étant agencé pour recevoir une vis de blocage d' un élément longitudinal profilé lorsque la languette de la partie centrale du T est engagée dans ladite fente .In this preferred embodiment, said arm provided with the slot comprises a substantially cylindrical housing, formed over its entire width, perpendicular to said slot, this housing being arranged to receive a locking screw of a profiled longitudinal element when the tongue the central part of the T is engaged in said slot.
Ladite vis de blocage est de préférence autoforante et le logement cylindrique est de préférence fendu axialement . Selon une forme de réalisation préférée, la distance qui sépare les parois latérales de la gorge des éléments longitudinaux profilés , cette distance étant mesurée au fond des cannelures opposées , est sensi¬ blement égale à l' épaisseur du fût des vis de montage, cette épais- seur étant mesurée à l' extérieur des filets du filetage .Said locking screw is preferably self-drilling and the cylindrical housing is preferably split axially. According to a preferred embodiment, the distance which separates the lateral walls of the groove from the profiled longitudinal elements, this distance being measured at the bottom of the opposite grooves, is substantially equal to the thickness of the barrel of the mounting screws, this thick - sor being measured outside the threads of the thread.
Selon une variante particulièrement avantageuse , lesdits éléments de bardage comportent des logements ménagés par masquer un éclairage .According to a particularly advantageous variant, said cladding elements include housings formed by concealing lighting.
D' une manière préférentielle, lesdits éléments de bardage comportent à la fois des moyens d'accouplement rapide et des moyens de verrouillage de ces éléments dans leur position accouplée.Preferably, said cladding elements comprise both quick coupling means and means for locking these elements in their coupled position.
La présente invention sera mieux comprise en référence à la description d' exemples de réalisation et aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :The present invention will be better understood with reference to the description of exemplary embodiments and to the accompanying drawings in which:
la figure 1 représente une vue en coupe transversale de deux éléments de bardage composant le revêtement de façade selon l'invention ,FIG. 1 represents a cross-sectional view of two cladding elements making up the facade cladding according to the invention,

la figure 6 représente une vue en perspective illustrant les moyens de fixation représentés par la figure 5, etFIG. 6 represents a perspective view illustrating the fixing means represented by FIG. 5, and
les figures 7 , 8 et 9 illustrent une application particulière du revê¬ tement de façade selon l'invention, dans laquelle les éléments de bardage sont conçus pour permettre la réalisation d' un éclairage indirect .Figures 7, 8 and 9 illustrate a particular application of the facade cladding according to the invention, in which the cladding elements are designed to allow the realization of indirect lighting.
En référence à la figure 1 , le revêtement de façade 10 se compose d' un ensemble d' éléments de bardage 11 qui sont réalisés sous une forme de panneaux longitudinaux montés côte à côte pour constituer une surface extérieure ayant un aspect continu . Ces éléments de bardage sont réalisés en aluminium , en un alliage à base d' aluminium ou en une matière synthétique , par extrusion selon une technique bien connue pour la fabrication de profilés .Referring to Figure 1, the facade cladding 10 consists of a set of cladding elements 11 which are produced under a form of longitudinal panels mounted side by side to form an outer surface having a continuous appearance. These cladding elements are made of aluminum, an aluminum-based alloy or a synthetic material, by extrusion according to a well-known technique for the manufacture of profiles.
Grâce à cette technique d' extrusion , les éléments de bardage comportent des moyens d'accouplement rapide 12 et des moyens de verrouillage 13 qui permettent de les lier entre eux et de les bloquer en position . De cette manière on réduit considérablement le nombre de vis de fixation 14 nécessaires pour fixer le bardage à des éléments d' une structure de support 15 elle-même liée au bâtiment destiné à être revêtu . Ces moyens d' accouplement rapides 12 sont constitués avantageusement d' une rainure 12a ménagée le long d' un côté de chaque élément de bardage 11 et d' un rebord 12b ménagé le long de l'autre côté de chaque élément de bardage 11 . La géométrie de la rainure 12a et du rebord 12b est telle que le rebord 12b d' un premier élément de bardage 11 peut s' engager dans la rainure 12a d' un autre élément de bardage 11 disposé de façon adjacente au premier . Cet emboîtement est tel que , vu de l' extérieur , deux éléments de bardage 11 disposés côte à côte donnent un aspect ininterrompu , c' est-à-dire définissent une surface continue .Thanks to this extrusion technique, the cladding elements comprise quick coupling means 12 and locking means 13 which make it possible to link them together and to block them in position. In this way, the number of fixing screws 14 necessary for fixing the cladding to elements of a support structure 15 itself linked to the building intended to be coated is considerably reduced. These quick coupling means 12 advantageously consist of a groove 12a formed along one side of each cladding element 11 and a flange 12b formed along the other side of each cladding element 11. The geometry of the groove 12a and the rim 12b is such that the rim 12b of a first cladding element 11 can engage in the groove 12a of another cladding element 11 disposed adjacent to the first. This interlocking is such that, seen from the outside, two cladding elements 11 arranged side by side give an uninterrupted appearance, that is to say define a continuous surface.
Les moyens de verrouillage sont avantageusement constitués par deux pattes 13a et 13b , situées sur la face arrière de l'élément de bardageThe locking means advantageously consist of two tabs 13a and 13b, located on the rear face of the cladding element
11 et pourvues respectivement de deux becs 13d et 13c présentant une certaine élasticité . La patte 13a équipée de son bec 13d prolonge l' une des parois qui définit la rainure 12a , et est disposée le long du côté de l' élément de bardage 11 qui comporte cette rainure . La patte 13b et le bec correspondant 13c sont disposés sur la face arrière de l' élément de bardage 11 à proximité du bord comportant le rebord11 and provided respectively with two spouts 13d and 13c having a certain elasticity. The tab 13a equipped with its beak 13d extends one of the walls which defines the groove 12a, and is arranged along the side of the cladding element 11 which comprises this groove. The tab 13b and the corresponding spout 13c are arranged on the rear face of the cladding element 11 near the edge having the rim
12b . De ce fait , les deux pattes 13a et 13b se chevauchent à leur extrémité et les becs 13d et 13d s'accrochent l' un à l' autre lorsque deux éléments de bardage 11 sont couplés , c' est-à-dire montés de façon adjacente . En outre , la partie des éléments de bardage 11 comportant la rainure 12a et la patte 13a est pourvue d' un décrochement 16 définissant une surface d' appui 17 pour permettre la fixation simultanée de deux éléments de bardage sur l' élément 15 de la structure de support . La surface d' appui 17 est sensiblement plane pour faciliter cet appui et la profondeur du décrochement 16 est définie de manière à permettre de noyer la tête des vis 14 et de régler l' écartement du bardage par rapport à la structure de support .12b. As a result, the two tabs 13a and 13b overlap at their ends and the spouts 13d and 13d hang on to each other when two cladding elements 11 are coupled, that is to say mounted so adjacent. In addition, the part of the cladding elements 11 comprising the groove 12a and the tab 13a is provided with a recess 16 defining a bearing surface 17 to allow the simultaneous fixing of two cladding elements on the element 15 of the structure. of support. The support surface 17 is substantially flat to facilitate this support and the depth of the recess 16 is defined so as to allow to drown the head of the screws 14 and to adjust the spacing of the cladding relative to the support structure.
II est évident que la technique d' extrusion permet de réaliser d' une manière simple toutes les géométries de profils et tous les systèmes d' accouplement par emboîtement associés à un verrouillage par encli- quetage identique ou similaire à ceux décrits ci-dessus . En parti¬ culier , les figures 2 , 3 et 4 représentent d' autres formes de réali- sation d' éléments de bardage , également fabriqués selon cette technique . Comme précédemment , ces éléments de bardage comportent des moyens d' accouplement rapides 12 et des moyens de verrouillage 13 qui sont ménagés de part et d' autres de leurs bords pour permettre une liaison entre ces différents éléments exempte de toute discontinuité apparente , lorsque le bardage est complètement monté sur la façade d' un bâtiment .It is obvious that the extrusion technique makes it possible to carry out in a simple manner all the profile geometries and all the coupling coupling systems associated with a latching locking identical or similar to those described above. In particular, FIGS. 2, 3 and 4 show other forms of production of cladding elements, also manufactured using this technique. As before, these cladding elements comprise quick coupling means 12 and locking means 13 which are formed on either side of their edges to allow a connection between these different elements free of any apparent discontinuity, when the cladding is completely mounted on the facade of a building.
Les figures 5 et 6 illustrent d' une manière plus détaillée le mode de fixation des éléments de bardage sur la structure de support . Cette structure de support comporte des éléments longitudinaux profilés 20 , de préférence en aluminium extrudé , pourvus d' une gorge longitu¬ dinale axiale 21 destinée à recevoir les vis 14 de montage des éléments de bardage 11 . Ces éléments longitudinaux profilés 20 sont liés à un ouvrage de maçonnerie 22 au moyen d' équerres 23 également réalisées à partir d' un profilé extrudé en aluminium découpé par tronçons . Les éléments longitudinaux profilés 20 ont une forme générale en T , dont la partie centrale comporte ladite gorge longitu¬ dinale axiale 21 . Cette gorge présente des parois intérieures pourvues de cannelures 21a parallèles à l'axe et la distance qui sépare ces parois , distance mesurée au fond des cannelures opposées , est sensiblement égale à l' épaisseur du fût des vis de montage , cette épaisseur étant mesurée à l' extérieur des filets de filetage, ce qui permet la prise des vis dans la gorge. La partie transversale du T se décompose en deux ailettes latérales 20a , 20b , respectivement disposées de part et d'autre de ladite gorge. Ces ailettes peuvent servir d'appui à des supports horizontaux sur lesquels seront fixés les éléments de bardage 11. On notera que la gorge longitudinale axiale 20 ne s'étend que sur une partie de la hauteur de la partie centrale du T . Le reste de cette partie se présente sous la forme d'une languette 25 disposée dans le prolongement de l'axe de la gorge 20.Figures 5 and 6 illustrate in more detail the method of fixing the cladding elements on the support structure. This support structure comprises profiled longitudinal elements 20, preferably made of extruded aluminum, provided with an axial longitu¬ groove 21 intended to receive the screws 14 for mounting the cladding elements 11. These profiled longitudinal elements 20 are linked to a masonry structure 22 by means of brackets 23 also produced from an extruded aluminum profile cut in sections. The longitudinal profiled elements 20 have a general T shape, the central part of which includes said axial longitudinal groove 21. This groove has internal walls provided with grooves 21a parallel to the axis and the distance which separates these walls, distance measured at the bottom of the opposite grooves, is substantially equal to the thickness of the barrel of the mounting screws, this thickness being measured at outside the nets of thread, which allows the screws to be taken in the groove. The transverse part of the T is divided into two lateral fins 20a, 20b, respectively arranged on either side of said groove. These fins can serve as support for horizontal supports on which the cladding elements 11 will be fixed. It will be noted that the axial longitudinal groove 20 extends only over part of the height of the central part of the T. The rest of this part is in the form of a tongue 25 arranged in the extension of the axis of the groove 20.
Les équerres 23 de forme coudée à 90° , comportent un bras 23a et un bras 23b , dont l' un 23a est destiné à être fixé contre l' ouvrage de maçonnerie 22 et dont l'autre 23b est destiné à fixer un élément longitudinal profilé 20. A cet effet, le bras 23a est pourvu d' une ouverture oblongue 26 prévue pour le passage d' un boulon ou d' une vis de fixation 27. Cette ouverture oblongue permet un réglage en position de l' équerre 23. Le bras 23b est pourvu d'une fente 24 agencée pour recevoir ladite languette 25 de la partie centrale du T de l' élément longitudinal profilé 20. En outre, le bras 23b est équipé d' un logement sensiblement cylindrique 29 ménagé sur toute sa largeur et agencé pour recevoir une vis de blocage 28. Le logement cylindrique 29 est de préférence fendu sur toute sa longueur. La vis de blocage 28 est de préférence autoforante et sa tête comporte des pans de blocage empêchant un desserrement dû à des vibrations .The brackets 23 of 90 ° angled shape, comprise an arm 23a and an arm 23b, one of which 23a is intended to be fixed against the masonry work 22 and the other of which 23b is intended to fix a profiled longitudinal element 20. For this purpose, the arm 23a is provided with an oblong opening 26 provided for the passage of a bolt or a fixing screw 27. This oblong opening allows adjustment in position of the bracket 23. The arm 23b is provided with a slot 24 arranged to receive said tongue 25 from the central part of the T of the profiled longitudinal element 20. In addition, the arm 23b is equipped with a substantially cylindrical housing 29 formed over its entire width and arranged to receive a locking screw 28. The cylindrical housing 29 is preferably split over its entire length. The locking screw 28 is preferably self-drilling and its head has locking sections preventing loosening due to vibrations.
Les équerres étant mises en place, les éléments longitudinaux profilés 20 sont positionnés de manière appropriée, le réglage de leur position , c' est-à-dire leur écartement par rapport à l'ouvrage en maçonnerie étant défini par la profondeur à laquelle la languette 25 est introduite dans les fentes 24 des bras 23b des équerres 23. Le réglage de cet écartement peut être réglé par exemple en fonction de la présence et de l'épaisseur d' une couche de matériau isolant . La vis de blocage 28 autoforante assure le blocage en position des éléments 20.The brackets being put in place, the longitudinal profiled elements 20 are positioned in an appropriate manner, the adjustment of their position, that is to say their distance from the masonry work being defined by the depth at which the tongue 25 is introduced into the slots 24 of the arms 23b of the brackets 23. The adjustment of this spacing can be adjusted for example as a function of the presence and the thickness of a layer of insulating material. The self-drilling locking screw 28 blocks the elements 20 in position.
La technique de réalisation des profilés par extrusion permet de concevoir d' une manière simple et efficace des structures aussi complexes que les cannelures ménagées à l' intérieur de la gorge 21 , et les logements 29 permettant la mise en place des vis de blocage 28 pour assurer le blocage en position des éléments longitudinaux profilés 20.The technique of production of extrusion profiles makes it possible to design structures in a simple and efficient way. complex than the grooves formed inside the groove 21, and the housings 29 allowing the positioning of the locking screws 28 to ensure the locking in position of the longitudinal profiled elements 20.
Les figures 7 à 9 illustrent une forme de réalisation particulière permettant de réaliser un éclairage indirect incorporé au bardage métallique . A cet effet , chaque élément de bardage 11 , dont la surface extérieure peut avoir une forme quelconque correspondant notamment aux profilés illustrés par les figures 1 à 4 , comporte un prolongement latéral 30 qui définit un logement 31 dans lequel peut être monté un éclairage 32.Figures 7 to 9 illustrate a particular embodiment for achieving indirect lighting incorporated into the metal cladding. To this end, each cladding element 11, the external surface of which can have any shape corresponding in particular to the profiles illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 4, has a lateral extension 30 which defines a housing 31 in which a light 32 can be mounted.
Les deux vues agrandies des figures 8 et 9 illustrent deux formes de réalisation particulière des becs des moyens de verrouillage des éléments de bardage 11 . Quelle que soit la forme de ces organes , ils peuvent être réalisés d' une manière relativement simple et efficace par extrusion , alors qu' une construction équivalente par des moyens classiques ne pourrait être réalisée que grâce à des interventions de pliage et de soudure compliquées et coûteuses .The two enlarged views of FIGS. 8 and 9 illustrate two particular embodiments of the spouts of the means for locking the cladding elements 11. Whatever the shape of these members, they can be produced in a relatively simple and effective manner by extrusion, while equivalent construction by conventional means could only be achieved by means of complicated bending and welding operations and expensive.
Grâce aux moyens d' accouplement rapide et aux moyens de verrouil¬ lage dont sont pourvues toutes les formes de réalisation des éléments de bardage , le nombre de vis de fixation ou de rivets nécessaires pour solidariser ces éléments à la structure de support est considé¬ rablement réduit par rapport au nombre de ces moyens de fixation utilisés dans le cadre des réalisations connues .Thanks to the quick coupling means and the locking means with which all the embodiments of the cladding elements are provided, the number of fixing screws or rivets necessary to secure these elements to the support structure is considerably reduced compared to the number of these fixing means used in the context of known embodiments.
La présente invention n' est pas limitée aux formes de réalisation décrites ci-dessus . En particulier , la forme des profilés constituant les éléments de bardage peut être quelconque . Les moyens d' accouplement rapide par emboîtement et les moyens de verrouillage peuvent être modifiés . Toutefois , les deux fonctions doivent pouvoir être remplies de façon quasi simultanée pour que le montage des éléments de bardage puissent être effectué d' une façon rapide , efficace et économique . The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. In particular, the shape of the profiles constituting the cladding elements can be arbitrary. The quick coupling means by interlocking and the locking means can be modified. However, both functions must be able to be fulfilled almost simultaneously so that the cladding elements can be assembled quickly, efficiently and economically.
