Abstract

The thin facing plates (1A,1B) are assembled and fixed onto a support (3). One facing plate (1A) has on its section a continuous tongue ((8) which partially penetrates into a rebate (9) in the section of the complementary facing plate (1B). An assembly groove (10) is provided in the extension of the rebate. These facing plates are fitted with an assembly section (2), which they conceal, to the support. The assembly section comprises a base plate which is fixed to the support and a facing plates' retaining leg (6). This retaining leg, parallel to the base plate and joined to it by a web, is inserted in the assembled position of the facing plates partially in the assembly groove of one of the facing plates (1B).

Description

La présente invention concerne un parement se présentant généralement sous forme de lames telles que des lames de bois sur un support de nature quelconque.The present invention relates to a facing generally presenting under shape of blades such as wooden blades on a support of any kind.

De nombreux profilés d'assemblage réalisés pour permettre la fixation d'un parement se présentant en particulier sous forme de lames de bois à un support quelconque sont connus. Un exemple de réalisation d'un tel profilé est par exemple décrit dans le brevet FR-A-2.528.484. Un tel dispositif évite certes tout usinage des lames devant être assemblées mais empêche, en raison de sa conception, un plaquage des lames contre le support et nécessite donc de laisser un espace libre entre les plaques et le support. En outre, le profilé d'assemblage est constitué de deux éléments, ce qui multiplie le nombre de pièces devant être utilisées.Many assembly profiles made to allow the fixing of a facing presenting itself in particular under form of wooden strips to any support are known. An embodiment of such a profile is for example described in patent FR-A-2,528,484. Such a device certainly avoids any machining of the blades to be assembled but prevents, due to its design, a plating of the blades against the support and therefore requires leaving a free space between the plates and the support. In addition, the assembly profile consists of two elements, which multiplies the number of parts to be used.

Un autre dispositif décrit dans le brevet EP-0.540.036 présente le même inconvénient, à savoir un espace libre entre le support et les plaques formant parement. En outre, ce dispositif est destiné à être utilisé pour des éléments de parement particuliers formés d'un élément de plaque avant et d'un élément de plaque arrière, ces éléments étant reliés entre eux par des traverses étroites.Another device described in patent EP-0.540.036 has the same drawback, namely free space between the support and the facing plates. In addition, this device is intended to be used for elements of special facing formed from a plate element front and a rear plate element, these elements being linked together by narrow crosspieces.

Un autre dispositif d'assemblage et de fixation de plaques de bardage sur une paroi verticale est décrit dans la demande de brevet FR-A-2.659.999. Un tel dispositif est particulièrement complexe puisqu'il comprend d'une part des rails verticaux, d'autre part des lisses horizontales, les rails et les lisses étant conformés de manière à pouvoir s'assembler entre eux, la lisse horizontale présentant en outre des rainures pour la réception des plaques.Another device for assembling and fixing plates of siding on a vertical wall is described in the patent application FR-A-2,659,999. Such a device is particularly complex since it includes on the one hand vertical rails, on the other hand horizontal rails, the rails and stringers being shaped so as to be able join together, the horizontal rail presenting in besides grooves for the reception of the plates.

Un autre dispositif d'assemblage est décrit dans le brevet FR-A-2.559.819. Dans ce cas, le dispositif comporte plusieurs moyens d'accrochage affectant la forme de rails fixés transversalement et à espacements réguliers sur la face extérieure d'un mur d'une construction et des éléments modulaires, tels que des briques creuses, des éléments en terre cuite ou en béton architectonique et venant en recouvrement partiel les uns sur les autres dans le plan horizontal et/ou vertical. Un tel dispositif n'est pas transposable à l'assemblage de lames de bois du fait d'une part de l'utilisation des moyens d'accrochage continus (rails), d'autre part, de la forme des éléments à assembler dont le coût d'usinage serait prohibitif. Ce dispositif est toutefois plus performant que celui décrit dans la demande internationale WO-93.23637 où un tel dispositif d'assemblage ne permet pas un assemblage à recouvrement masqué avec un profilé d'assemblage.Another assembly device is described in the patent FR-A-2.559.819. In this case, the device comprises several attachment means affecting the shape of rails fixed transversely and at regular intervals on the exterior face of a wall of a building and elements modular, such as hollow bricks, elements in terracotta or architectural concrete and coming in partial overlap on each other in the plane horizontal and / or vertical. Such a device is not transposable to the assembly of wooden boards due to a share of the use of continuous attachment means (rails), on the other hand, the shape of the elements to be assembled whose machining cost would be prohibitive. This device is however more efficient than that described in the request international WO-93.23637 where such a device assembly does not allow overlap assembly hidden with an assembly profile.

Enfin, le brevet GB-A-2.135.355 décrit un dispositif d'assemblage de panneaux possédant une aile en retour coopérant avec un profilé d'assemblage et de recouvrement des retours, le serrage entre profilé et ailes en retour étant obtenu par un coin serreur de préférence en matériau élastomère disposé entre les retours. Ce dispositif nécessite donc deux organes pour la réalisation de l'assemblage et ne permet pas à nouveau un assemblage à recouvrement masqué des organes d'assemblage.Finally, GB-A-2,135,355 describes a device for assembling panels with a return wing cooperating with an assembly and covering profile returns, tightening between profile and wings in return being obtained by a wedge preferably in material elastomer disposed between the returns. These measures therefore requires two organs for the realization of assembly and does not allow assembly again at concealed covering of the assembly members.

La présente invention vise à pallier les inconvénients précités en proposant un parement sous forme de lames sur un support de nature quelconque, particulièrement simple et qui permette un assemblage par emboítement du type à recouvrement de manière à masquer complètement le plan de joint entre lesdites lames tout en couvrant au moins partiellement le profilé d'assemblage.The present invention aims to overcome the drawbacks above by proposing a facing in the form of blades on a support of any kind, particularly simple and which allows an interlocking type assembly of so as to completely hide the parting line between said blades while at least partially covering the assembly profile.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de permettre d'une part, l'absorption de la déformation des lames sans compliquer le dispositif, d'autre part, le plaquage des lames formant parement au support sans nécessiter de manière obligatoire le ménagement d'un espace libre entre le support et lesdites lames.Another object of the present invention is to allow a part, the absorption of the deformation of the blades without complicate the device, on the other hand, the plating of blades forming a facing to the support without requiring obligatorily the creation of a free space between the support and said blades.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un parement selon la revendication 1. To this end, the invention relates to a facing according to claim 1.

Selon une forme de réalisation préférée de l'invention, le profilé d'assemblage affecte la forme d'un H, l'une des branches du H constituant la patte de retenue, l'autre branche du H constituant la semelle.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the assembly profile assumes the shape of an H, one of the branches of the H constituting the retaining tab, the other H branch constituting the sole.

Selon une autre forme de réalisation préférée de l'invention, l'âme du profilé comporte de préférence dans sa région médiane au moins deux saillies disposées de part et d'autre de l'âme et en saillie en direction des tranches de chaque lame.According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the core of the profile preferably comprises in its middle region at least two projections arranged on the side on the other side of the core and projecting towards the edges of each blade.

L'invention sera bien comprise à la lecture de la description suivante d'exemples de réalisation, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 représente une vue en coupe transversale d'un dispositif d'assemblage et de fixation d'un parement sur un support vertical;
  • la figure 2 représente une vue agrandie de la figure 1 ;
  • la figure 3 représente une vue en perspective du profilé d'assemblage du dispositif d'assemblage de la figure 1 ;
  • la figure 4 représente une variante du profilé d'assemblage de la figure 3 ; et
  • la figure 5 représente une vue en coupe transversale d'un autre mode de réalisation du profilé d'assemblage de la figure 3.
    • The invention will be clearly understood on reading the following description of exemplary embodiments, with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 shows a cross-sectional view of a device for assembling and fixing a facing on a vertical support;
  • Figure 2 shows an enlarged view of Figure 1;
  • Figure 3 shows a perspective view of the assembly profile of the assembly device of Figure 1;
  • Figure 4 shows a variant of the assembly profile of Figure 3; and
  • FIG. 5 represents a cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the assembly profile of FIG. 3.

    • Conformément à l'invention, le dispositif d'assemblage et de fixation d'un parement formé par exemple de lames 1, de préférence en bois, sur un support 3 qui peut être de nature quelconque nécessite d'une part un usinage approprié des tranches des lames devant être assemblées, d'autre part, au moins un profilé d'assemblage particulier. L'assemblage des lames entre elles est réalisé par emboítement desdites lames de telle sorte qu'au moins l'une des lames recouvre la lame contiguë. Pour ce faire, l'une des lames 1, par exemple la lame 1A dans la figure 1, présente sur sa tranche une languette continue 8 pénétrant partiellement dans une feuillure 9 ménagée sur la tranche de la lame 1B complémentaire. Dans le prolongement de cette feuillure 9 est ménagée une gorge d'assemblage 10 susceptible de recevoir l'une des parties constitutives d'un profilé d'assemblage 2. Grâce à cet assemblage du type languette-feuillure formant un assemblage à recouvrement masqué, d'une part, le ou les profilés d'assemblage qui coopèrent avec lesdites lames peuvent être rendu invisibles, d'autre part, le plan de joint entre lesdites lames est également masqué grâce au débordant possédé par une tranche de l'une des lames de l'assemblage.In accordance with the invention, the assembly device and for fixing a facing formed for example of blades 1, of preferably in wood, on a support 3 which can be of any kind requires appropriate machining on the one hand slices of the blades to be assembled, other share, at least one particular assembly profile. The blades are joined together by interlocking of said blades so that at least one blades cover the adjoining blade. To do this, one blades 1, for example blade 1A in FIG. 1, has on its edge a continuous tongue 8 penetrating partially in a rebate 9 formed on the edge of the complementary blade 1B. Following on from this rebate 9 is provided an assembly groove 10 likely to receive one of the constituent parts an assembly profile 2. Thanks to this type of assembly rebate tab forming an overlapping assembly hidden, on the one hand, the assembly profile or profiles which cooperate with said blades can be made invisible, on the other hand, the joint plane between said blades is also hidden thanks to the overhang possessed by a slice of one of the blades of the assembly.

    Ce profilé d'assemblage 2 est quant à lui constitué tout d'abord d'une semelle 4 de fixation du profilé d'assemblage au support 3. Pour une mise en oeuvre correcte dudit profilé, les lames à assembler doivent être réalisées en un matériau tendre. Le bois est un matériau préféré. Selon la forme de réalisation de cette semelle 4, la fixation des lames au support sera réalisée au moyen d'un profilé d'assemblage unique ou de plusieurs profilés d'assemblage. Ainsi, dans le cas de la figure 4, l'assemblage entre lesdites lames nécessitera un seul et même profilé d'assemblage. Dans cette configuration, les profilés d'assemblage 2 se présentent sous forme d'un profilé continu formé d'une semelle de fixation 4 unique fixée au support 3, cette semelle 4 étant pourvue à intervalles réguliers d'éléments d'accrochage du parement formés d'une seule pièce avec la semelle et comprenant une âme 7 perpendiculaire à la semelle 4 et une patte de retenue 6 perpendiculaire à l'âme 7. Au contraire, dans les figures 1 et 2, plusieurs profilés d'assemblage seront nécessaires pour la fixation ponctuelle des éléments de parement. Cette solution sera obligatoire dans le cas d'un assemblage de lames de bois de grande longueur dont la rectitude n'est pas parfaite.This assembly profile 2 is itself made up first of a sole 4 for fixing the assembly profile to support 3. For correct implementation of said profile, the blades to be assembled must be made in one soft material. Wood is a preferred material. According to embodiment of this sole 4, the fixing of blades to the support will be realized by means of a profile single assembly or multiple assembly profiles. Thus, in the case of FIG. 4, the assembly between said blades will require a single profile assembly. In this configuration, the profiles assembly 2 are in the form of a profile continuous formed by a single fixing plate 4 fixed to the support 3, this sole 4 being provided at intervals regular elements for attaching the facing formed of a single piece with the sole and including a core 7 perpendicular to the sole 4 and a retaining tab 6 perpendicular to the core 7. On the contrary, in Figures 1 and 2, several assembly profiles will be required for point fixing of facing elements. This solution will be mandatory in the case of an assembly of long wooden planks whose straightness is not no perfect.

    Dans le cas du mode de réalisation retenu aux figures 1 et 2, le profilé d'assemblage 2 comporte une semelle de fixation 4 qui est disposée en affleurement du plan de surface défini par lesdites lames en position assemblée. Ainsi, le parement est véritablement plaqué contre le support. Pour ce faire, des réservations 12 sont ménagées sur les tranches desdites lames au voisinage de leur plan de joint dans la surface constituant la surface d'appui des lames au support 3. Au contraire, dans le mode de réalisation retenu à la figure 4, la semelle 4 se présente sous forme d'un ruban ou bande continu qui vient se plaquer sur le support 3. Dans ce cas, les lames 1A ou 1B seront introduites par coulissement sur ce profilé d'assemblage, une fois ce profilé fixé au support. Outre cette semelle de fixation 4, qui comporte pour sa fixation au support 3, par exemple un perçage 5, de préférence chanfreiné, permettant l'introduction d'une vis ou d'un organe de fixation approprié, ce profilé d'assemblage comporte une patte de retenue 6 des lames en position assemblée de manière à les maintenir plaquées contre le support 3, cette patte de retenue 6 étant positionnée parallèle à la semelle 4 et étant reliée à cette dernière au moyen d'une âme 7 formant plan de joint entre les lames 1A et 1B. Cette patte de retenue 6 vient en position assemblée des lames s'insérer au moins partiellement dans la gorge d'assemblage 10 ménagée dans la lame 1B et dans l'espace laissé libre entre la feuillure 9 et la languette 8.In the case of the embodiment chosen in FIGS. 1 and 2, the assembly profile 2 comprises a sole of attachment 4 which is arranged flush with the plane of surface defined by said blades in the assembled position. Thus, the facing is really pressed against the support. To do this, reservations 12 are made on the edges of said blades in the vicinity of their plane of joint in the surface constituting the bearing surface of the blades to support 3. On the contrary, in the mode of embodiment retained in FIG. 4, the sole 4 presents itself in the form of a continuous ribbon or strip which comes to be plated on the support 3. In this case, the blades 1A or 1B will be introduced by sliding on this assembly profile, once this profile fixed to the support. Besides this sole of attachment 4, which comprises for its attachment to the support 3, by example a hole 5, preferably chamfered, allowing the introduction of a screw or a fixing member suitable, this assembly profile has a lug retaining 6 of the blades in the assembled position so as to keep pressed against the support 3, this tab of retainer 6 being positioned parallel to the sole 4 and being connected to the latter by means of a core 7 forming joint plane between the blades 1A and 1B. This leg of retainer 6 comes in the assembled position of the blades insert at least partially in the assembly groove 10 formed in the blade 1B and in the space left free between the rebate 9 and the tongue 8.

    Dans cette configuration, le profilé d'assemblage affecte donc la forme générale d'un H dont les branches sont constituées d'une part par la patte de retenue 6, d'autre part par la semelle 4 reliées entre elles au moyen de l'âme 7. De préférence, la semelle 4 est de longueur supérieure à la patte de retenue 6. De même, le perçage 5 dans la semelle de fixation 4 est ménagé le plus près de l'âme du profilé pour éviter un décollement ou un arrachement du profilé 2 du support 3 lors d'un travail (en particulier dans le sens d'un arc-boutement) des lames. L'axe de ce perçage 5 sera généralement disposé au centre de la surface délimitée par la semelle 4 du profilé d'assemblage 2. Généralement, ce perçage 5 sera chanfreiné pour éviter que l'organe de fixation fasse saillie de la semelle du profilé.In this configuration, the assembly profile affects so the general shape of an H whose branches are formed on the one hand by the retaining tab 6, on the other share by sole 4 interconnected by means of the core 7. Preferably, the sole 4 is longer than the retaining tab 6. Similarly, the hole 5 in the fixing sole 4 is arranged closest to the core of the profiled to avoid detachment or tearing of the profile 2 of support 3 during work (in particular in the direction of a bracing) of the blades. The axis of this hole 5 will generally be placed in the center of the surface delimited by the sole 4 of the assembly profile 2. Generally, this hole 5 will be chamfered to avoid that the fixing member protrudes from the sole of the streamlined.

    La patte de retenue 6 peut affecter un grand nombre de formes selon le procédé de fabrication retenu. Ainsi, elle peut, conformément à la figure 2, constituer une pince à ressort, en particulier dans le cas d'un procédé de fabrication du profilé 2 par pliage. De ce fait, le ressort tend à parfaire le plaquage de la lame contre le support 3. Il peut en être de même de la semelle 4. De même, il est possible, conformément à la figure 5, que la patte de retenue 6 comporte à au moins une de ses extrémités une saillie 11 formant crochet pour limiter notamment le jeu du profilé d'assemblage à l'intérieur de la gorge d'assemblage 10 ou entre la languette et la feuillure.The retaining tab 6 can affect a large number of shapes according to the manufacturing process used. So she can, in accordance with Figure 2, constitute a pliers spring, in particular in the case of a manufacture of profile 2 by folding. Therefore, the spring tends to perfect the plating of the blade against the support 3. It can be the same for the sole 4. Similarly, it is possible, according to figure 5, that the lug retainer 6 has at least one of its ends a projection 11 forming a hook to limit in particular the play of the assembly profile inside the assembly groove 10 or between the tongue and the rebate.

    De même, l'âme 7 du H comporte au moins une saillie 13, de préférence deux, en saillie en direction d'au moins l'une des tranches desdites lames. La ou les saillies permettent de ménager un espace libre entre les tranches des lames et l'âme elle-même en position assemblée desdites lames de manière à pallier aux variations dimensionnelles des lames, en particulier lorsqu'elles sont soumises aux intempéries et gonflent sous l'effet de l'humidité. Dans ce cas, les saillies 13 forment entretoise entre lesdites lames. Cette saillie est généralement ménagée dans la partie sensiblement médiane de l'âme. Grâce à une telle saillie, on pallie aux variations dimensionnelles des lames sans compliquer le dispositif et à moindre coût tout en conservant un profilé d'assemblage formé d'une seule pièce.Similarly, the core 7 of the H comprises at least one projection 13, of preferably two, projecting towards at least one slices of said blades. The projection (s) allow to leave a free space between the edges of the blades and the core itself in the assembled position of said blades of so as to compensate for the dimensional variations of the blades, especially when exposed to the weather and swell due to humidity. In this case, the projections 13 form a spacer between said blades. This protrusion is generally provided in the part substantially median of the soul. Thanks to such a projection, we compensate for the dimensional variations of the blades without complicate the device and at a lower cost while retaining an assembly profile formed in one piece.

    Bien évidemment, d'autres modes de réalisation dudit profilé d'assemblage peuvent être retenus pour parfaire l'assemblage du profilé et des lames. Un tel dispositif d'assemblage peut être utilisé pour la fixation d'un parement sur un support plan. De même, les lames servant à la réalisation du parement peuvent être disposées sur un support vertical ou horizontal ou incliné de manière horizontale ou verticale ou inclinée. Les effets esthétiques obtenus peuvent donc varier à l'infini. Enfin, grâce au fait que l'une des lames possède sur l'un de ses côtés un débordant qui vient à recouvrement sur la patte de retenue 6 du profilé, on masque le plan de joint entre chacune des lames assemblées tout en ménageant un joint entre lesdites lames de forme variable, par exemple en V, présentant un aspect esthétique agréable à l'oeil.Obviously, other embodiments of said assembly profile can be retained to perfect the assembly of the profile and the blades. Such a device can be used for fixing a facing on a flat support. Likewise, the blades used to the realization of the facing can be arranged on a vertical or horizontal support or inclined so horizontal or vertical or inclined. The effects aesthetics obtained can therefore vary endlessly. Finally, thanks to the fact that one of the blades has on one of its sides an overflowing which overlaps on the leg retaining 6 of the profile, we hide the joint plane between each of the blades assembled while leaving a joint between said blades of variable shape, for example in V, presenting an aesthetic appearance pleasing to the eye.

    Bien évidemment, toutes les lames (1A, 1B) constituant le parement seront usinées de manière identique, l'une des tranches ménageant une feuillure, l'autre tranche parallèle une languette, ces lames étant assemblées par leur profil complémentaire.Obviously, all the blades (1A, 1B) constituting the facing will be machined identically, one of the slices leaving a rebate, the other parallel slice a tongue, these blades being assembled by their profile complementary.

    Claims (6)

    1. Facing consisting of a plurality of strips (1A, 1B) and an assembly section (2) intended to be assembled and fixed to a support (3) of any nature, each strip (1A) having on its edge, for the purposes of interlocking assembly of the overlapping interlocking type, a continuous tongue (8) partially penetrating into a rebate (9) provided on the edge of a complementary strip (1B), an assembly groove (10) being provided in the extension of the rebate (9), said strips (1A, 1B) interacting, for the purposes of concealed overlap assembly, with an assembly section (2) comprising at least one baseplate (4) for fixing to the support (3), at least one bracket (6) for holding the strips in position bearing on the support (3), said holding bracket (6), parallel to the fixing baseplate (4) and joined to the latter by means of a web (7) forming the joint plane between two contiguous strips, being inserted at least partially in the assembly groove (10) of one of the strips (1B) when the strips are in the assembled position,
      characterised in that since the strips are made of a soft material, preferably wood, the web (7) of the assembly section (2) has at least one projection (13) projecting in the direction of at least one of the edges of the said strips so as to provide a gap, between the web (7) of the section and the edge of the strip, capable of mitigating the dimensional variations of the strip due, for example, to inclement weather and in that the fixing baseplate (4) of the assembly section has a, preferably chamfered, hole (5) made closest to the web of the said section to prevent the assembly section (2) being pulled out of the support (3).
    2. Facing according to Claim 1,
      characterised in that the web (7) of the assembly section has, preferably in its mid region, at least two projections (13) arranged on either side of the web (7), said projections (13) projecting in the direction of the edge of each strip to be assembled.
    3. Facing according to one of Claims 1 and 2,
      characterised in that the assembly sections (2) are in the form of a continuous section made up of a single fixing baseplate (4) fixed to the support (3), said baseplate (4) being provided at regular intervals with coupling elements, for the facing, made in one piece with the baseplate and comprising a web (7) perpendicular to the baseplate (4) and a holding bracket (6) perpendicular to the web (7).
    4. Facing according to Claim 1,
      characterised in that the holding bracket (6) and/or the baseplate (4) of the assembly section (2) is in the form of a spring clip.
    5. Facing according to Claim 1,
      characterised in that the holding bracket (6) of the assembly section (2) has at least, at one of its ends, a projection (11) forming a clip to limit the play of the assembly section either inside the assembly groove (10) or in the tongue (8)/rebate (9) coupling region, while mitigating the dimensional variations of the strips.
    6. Facing according to Claim 1,
      characterised in that the edges of the said strips have, in the vicinity of their joint plane in the surface forming the surface by which the strips bear on the support (3), recesses (12) to allow the fixing baseplate (4) of the assembly section (2) to be arranged flush with the surface plane defined by the said strips in the assembled position.
