Description

La présente invention a essentiellement pour objet une attache de fixation d'un panneau sur un élément de structure, tel que par exemple un mur ou une cloison.The present invention essentially relates to a fastener for fixing a panel to a structural element, such as for example a wall or a partition.

Lorsqu'on désire habiller un mur à l'aide par exemple de panneaux d'isolation phonique, il convient tout d'abord d'amener sur le chantier une pluralité de panneaux qui doivent nécessairement être superposés. Ceci signifie que les panneaux ne doivent pas être munis d'attaches de fixation faisant saillie d'un côté ou de l'autre du panneau, à défaut de quoi la superposition des panneaux et leur transport seraient évidemment problématiques.When it is desired to cover a wall with, for example, soundproofing panels, it is first of all advisable to bring to the site a plurality of panels which must necessarily be superimposed. This means that the panels must not be fitted with fastening clips projecting from one side or the other of the panel, failing which the overlapping of the panels and their transport would obviously be problematic.

Dans ces conditions, il faut munir les panneaux d'attaches de fixation sur le chantier, ce qui est coûteux, peu pratique et nécessite un temps de main-d'oeuvre important.Under these conditions, it is necessary to provide the fastening panels on the site, which is expensive, impractical and requires significant labor time.

Aussi, la présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant une attache de fixation qui est en majeure partie intégrée au panneau et permet de réaliser immédiatement la fixation de ce panneau sur un mur ou une cloison, dès l'arrivée des panneaux superposés et sous forme d'un empilement compact, sur le chantier.Also, the object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a fixing clip which is mainly integrated into the panel and makes it possible to immediately fix this panel to a wall or a partition, as soon as the panels arrive. superimposed and in the form of a compact stack, on site.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet une attache de fixation d'un panneau sur un élément de structure quelconque, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comprend une première partie formant embase noyée dans l'épaisseur du panneau et munie d'une cage débouchant sur au moins l'une des faces du panneau, ainsi qu'une deuxième partie pouvant être clippée dans la cage, sensiblement orthogonalement au plan du panneau, pour permettre l'accrochage du panneau sur l'élément de structure.To this end, the subject of the invention is a fastener for fixing a panel to any structural element, characterized in that it comprises a first part forming a base embedded in the thickness of the panel and provided with a cage. opening onto at least one of the faces of the panel, as well as a second part which can be clipped into the cage, substantially orthogonally to the plane of the panel, to allow the panel to be hooked onto the structural element.

On comprend donc déjà qu'une fois les panneaux livrés sur le site, il suffit tout simplement de clipper la deuxième partie de l'attache sur le panneau de façon à pouvoir l'accrocher sur par exemple un profilé solidaire du mur ou de la cloison à habiller.It is therefore already understood that once the panels have been delivered to the site, all that is required is to clip the second part of the clip onto the panel so that it can be hung on, for example, a profile secured to the wall or the partition. to dress.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de cette attache, l'ouverture débouchante de la cage est en affleurement avec la face du panneau.According to another characteristic of this attachment, the through opening of the cage is flush with the face of the panel.

Il en résulte que les panneaux pourront être superposés et empilés sans aucune difficulté, comme c'est le cas pour les panneaux habituels non munis d'attaches.As a result, the panels can be stacked and stacked without any difficulty, as is the case for the usual panels not provided with fasteners.

L'attache selon cette invention est encore caractérisée en ce que la deuxième partie précitée présente sensiblement la forme d'un U clippé par ses branches entre deux côtés opposés appartenant à la cage de la première partie de l'attache.The fastener according to this invention is further characterized in that the aforementioned second part has substantially the shape of a U clipped by its branches between two opposite sides belonging to the cage of the first part of the fastener.

On précisera encore ici que les branches du U comportent chacune une ouverture coopérant avec un ergot ou analogue en saillie vers l'intérieur de la cage.It will also be specified here that the branches of the U each have an opening cooperating with a lug or the like projecting towards the inside of the cage.

La disposition inverse pourrait parfaitement être adoptée sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.The reverse arrangement could perfectly be adopted without departing from the scope of the invention.

Suivant encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, l'une des branches du U possède une extrémité libre repliée vers l'intérieur de ce U.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, one of the branches of the U has a free end folded inwardly of this U.

On observera encore que les ouvertures précitées sont ménagées dans les extrémités libres des branches du U qui sont moins larges que la partie restante de ces branches.It will also be observed that the aforementioned openings are formed in the free ends of the branches of the U which are narrower than the remaining part of these branches.

Cette partie restante forme quatre coins repliés vers l'extérieur du U pour retenir le panneau sur l'élément de structure.This remaining part forms four corners folded towards the outside of the U to retain the panel on the structural element.

L'attache selon cette invention est encore caractérisée par le fait que la cage de l'embase de l'attache présente la forme d'un boîtier à quatre côtés découpés et repliés à environ 90° depuis l'embase.The fastener according to this invention is further characterized by the fact that the cage of the fastener base has the form of a box with four sides cut and folded at around 90 ° from the base.

L'embase comporte encore des griffes repliées depuis l'embase, mais du côté opposé à la cage.The base also has claws folded back from the base, but on the side opposite the cage.

Suivant encore une autre caractéristique de l'attache de l'invention, le boîtier formant la cage est disposé sur un bord de l'embase, tandis que le bord opposé est replié du même côté que la cage pour permettre avantageusement le positionnement de l'attache par rapport à un bord du panneau.According to yet another characteristic of the fastener of the invention, the housing forming the cage is arranged on one edge of the base, while the opposite edge is folded on the same side as the cage to advantageously allow the positioning of the attaches to an edge of the panel.

Mais d'autres avantages et caractéristiques de l'invention apparaîtront mieux dans la description détaillée qui suit et se réfère aux dessins annexés, donnés uniquement à titre d'exemple, et dans lesquels :However, other advantages and characteristics of the invention will appear better in the detailed description which follows and refers to the appended drawings, given solely by way of example, and in which:

La figure 1 est une vue en perspective de l'attache, avec ses deux parties séparées l'une de l'autre.Figure 1 is a perspective view of the fastener, with its two parts separated from one another.

La figure 2 est une vue similaire à la figure 1, mais montrant une partie de l'attache noyée dans l'épaisseur d'un panneau d'isolation phonique par exemple.Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1, but showing part of the fastener embedded in the thickness of a sound insulation panel for example.

La figure 3 est une vue en coupe sur la ligne III-III de la figure 2, et illustrant l'accrochage du panneau sur un mur ou une cloison par l'intermédiaire d'un profilé.Figure 3 is a sectional view on the line III-III of Figure 2, and illustrating the attachment of the panel on a wall or a partition via a profile.

En se reportant tout particulièrement aux figures 1 et 2, on voit une attache de fixation selon cette invention et se composant essentiellement de deux parties coopérantes mais séparables, à savoir une première partie 1 constituant une embase 3, et une deuxième partie 2 qui peut être clippée sur l'embase 3.With particular reference to Figures 1 and 2, there is shown a fastening clip according to this invention and consisting essentially of two cooperating but separable parts, namely a first part 1 constituting a base 3, and a second part 2 which can be clip on the base 3.

Plus précisément, l'embase 3 est, comme on le voit sur la figure 2, noyée dans l'épaisseur d'un panneau P et comporte une cage 4 qui débouche sur l'une F des faces du panneau P et qui est apte à recevoir par clippage la partie 2 de l'attache, laquelle partie 2 présente grossièrement la forme d'un U dont les branches élastiques 5, 6 peuvent être clippées dans l'intérieur de la cage 4 appartenant à la partie 1 de l'attache.More specifically, the base 3 is, as can be seen in FIG. 2, embedded in the thickness of a panel P and comprises a cage 4 which opens onto one F of the faces of the panel P and which is suitable for receiving by clipping part 2 of the fastener, which part 2 has roughly the shape of a U whose elastic branches 5, 6 can be clipped into the interior of the cage 4 belonging to part 1 of the fastener.

On comprend donc que la partie en U 2 de l'attache, lorsqu'elle est clippée dans la cage 4, se trouve dans une position sensiblement orthogonale au plan du panneau P, et cela de façon à permettre l'accrochage de ce panneau sur un élément de structure, tel qu'un mur M, bien visible sur la figure 3, comme on l'expliquera en détail plus loin.It is therefore understood that the U-shaped part 2 of the fastener, when it is clipped into the cage 4, is in a position substantially orthogonal to the plane of the panel P, and this so as to allow the attachment of this panel on a structural element, such as a wall M, clearly visible in Figure 3, as will be explained in detail below.

Revenant à la figure 2, on voit que l'ouverture O de la cage 4 demeure en affleurement avec la face F du panneau P, de sorte qu'une pluralité de panneaux tels que P, pourront être facilement superposés pour livraison sur un chantier par exemple.Returning to FIG. 2, it can be seen that the opening O of the cage 4 remains flush with the face F of the panel P, so that a plurality of panels such as P can be easily superimposed for delivery on a site by example.

Suivant l'exemple de réalisation représenté, et comme on le voit bien sur la figure 1, la cage 4 présente la forme d'un boîtier parallélépipèdique à quatre côtés 7, 8, 9 et 10 qui sont réalisés par découpage et repliement à environ 90° depuis l'embase 3.According to the embodiment shown, and as can be seen in Figure 1, the cage 4 has the shape of a rectangular housing with four sides 7, 8, 9 and 10 which are produced by cutting and folding to about 90 ° from base 3.

Cette embase 3 comporte encore des griffes 11, au nombre de quatre par exemple, qui sont découpées et repliées elles aussi depuis le plan de l'embase 3, mais dans une direction opposée à la forme de la cage 4.This base 3 also includes claws 11, four in number for example, which are also cut and folded from the plane of the base 3, but in a direction opposite to the shape of the cage 4.

On observera encore que le boîtier formant la cage 4 est disposé sur un bord de l'embase 3 qui, suivant l'exemple de réalisation représenté, présente une forme sensiblement rectangulaire. L'embase 3 comporte, à l'opposé du bord comportant la cage 4, un bord 12 qui est replié du même côté que la cage 4 et qui, comme on le voit clairement sur la figure 2, permet le positionnement de la partie 1 de l'attache noyée dans l'épaisseur du panneau P, par rapport au bord B de ce panneau.It will also be observed that the housing forming the cage 4 is arranged on an edge of the base 3 which, according to the embodiment shown, has a substantially rectangular shape. The base 3 comprises, opposite the edge comprising the cage 4, an edge 12 which is folded over on the same side as the cage 4 and which, as can be clearly seen in FIG. 2, allows the positioning of part 1 of the fastener embedded in the thickness of the panel P, relative to the edge B of this panel.

Comme on le voit bien sur les figures 1 et 2, deux côtés opposés 7, 9 du boîtier formant la cage 4 comportent respectivement un ergot ou analogue 13, 14 réalisé par exemple par un crevé dans ces côtés, lesdits ergots faisant saillie vers l'intérieur de la cage 4. Ces ergots coopèrent respectivement avec une ouverture 15, 16 ménagée dans les branches 5, 6 de la partie amovible 2 de l'attache.As can be seen in Figures 1 and 2, two opposite sides 7, 9 of the housing forming the cage 4 respectively have a lug or the like 13, 14 produced for example by a puncture in these sides, said lugs projecting towards the inside the cage 4. These pins cooperate respectively with an opening 15, 16 formed in the branches 5, 6 of the removable part 2 of the fastener.

La branche 5 du U constituant la partie 2 possède une extrémité libre qui est repliée vers l'intérieur du U, comme on l'a repéré en 17. Cette extrémité repliée 17 confère une certaine rigidité s'ajoutant à l'élasticité naturelle de la partie 2 et renforçant l'accrochage de la partie 2 dans la cage 4 appartenant à l'embase 3 noyée dans la panneau P.The branch 5 of the U constituting the part 2 has a free end which is folded towards the inside of the U, as was identified in 17. This folded end 17 confers a certain rigidity adding to the natural elasticity of the part 2 and strengthening the attachment of part 2 in the cage 4 belonging to the base 3 embedded in the panel P.

Comme on le voit encore sur les figures 1 et 2, les ouvertures 15 et 16 sont ménagées dans les extrémités libres des branches 5, 6 de la pièce en U 2, étant entendu que l'ouverture 15 se situe en-deça de l'extrémité repliée 17.As can still be seen in Figures 1 and 2, the openings 15 and 16 are formed in the free ends of the branches 5, 6 of the U-shaped part 2, being it is understood that the opening 15 is located below the folded end 17.

On observera que les extrémités libres des branches 5, 6 de la pièce 2 et comportant les ouvertures 15, 16 sont moins larges, comme repéré en 18, que la partie restante 19 des branches 5, 6.It will be observed that the free ends of the branches 5, 6 of the part 2 and comprising the openings 15, 16 are narrower, as identified in 18, than the remaining part 19 of the branches 5, 6.

Ainsi, il y a une sorte de décrochement entre la partie moins large 18 et la partie plus large 19 de la partie 2 en forme de U.Thus, there is a kind of recess between the narrower part 18 and the wider part 19 of the U-shaped part 2.

Dans cette partie restante et plus large 19 des branches 5, 6, sont donc formés quatre coins 20 qui sont repliés vers l'extérieur du U de façon à pouvoir retenir le panneau P sur l'élément de structure, tel que le mur M, comme on le décrira en détail maintenant en se reportant plus particulièrement à la figure 3.In this remaining and wider part 19 of the branches 5, 6, four corners 20 are therefore formed which are folded towards the outside of the U so as to be able to retain the panel P on the structural element, such as the wall M, as will be described in detail now with particular reference to FIG. 3.

Sur cette figure, on voit le panneau P en position fixée sur le mur M par l'intermédiaire d'un profilé 21 initialement solidaire du mur M. On notera que ce profilé 21 a une forme telle qu'il permet de réunir bout-à-bout deux panneaux tels que P et P1.In this figure, we see the panel P in position fixed on the wall M by means of a profile 21 initially secured to the wall M. It will be noted that this profile 21 has a shape such that it allows to join end-to-end. - end two panels such as P and P1.

Lorsque les panneaux superposés arrivent sur le chantier, il suffira à l'opérateur d'introduire la partie 2 dans la cage 4 appartenant à la partie 2 noyée dans le panneau P, P1, etc... Cette opération étant faite, les panneaux pourront être immédiatement accrochés sur le mur M. Plus précisément, les coins repliés 20 viendront en prise sur les ailes du profilé 21, comme le voit bien sur la figure 3.When the superimposed panels arrive on site, the operator will only need to introduce part 2 into the cage 4 belonging to part 2 embedded in the panel P, P1, etc. This operation being done, the panels can be immediately hung on the wall M. More precisely, the folded corners 20 will engage on the wings of the profile 21, as can be seen in FIG. 3.

On observera ici que la partie 2 présente une forme générale symétrique, ce qui permet avantageusement son clippage dans la cage 4 dans un sens ou dans l'autre, et cela sans inconvénient.It will be observed here that part 2 has a generally symmetrical shape, which advantageously allows its clipping in the cage 4 in one direction or the other, and this without disadvantage.

Le panneau P pourra être un panneau d'isolation phonique à deux couches 30, 40 par exemple et permettant l'habillage extérieur des façades. Ainsi, on pourra réaliser des murs ou des bâtiments protégés des bruits extérieurs, et cela pour un coût très faible, puisque l'attache de fixation selon cette invention permettra tant un transport aisé des panneaux qu'un accrochage quasiment immédiat de ceux-ci sur la paroi à habiller ou protéger.The panel P could be a two-layer sound insulation panel 30, 40 for example and allowing the exterior cladding of the facades. Thus, it will be possible to produce walls or buildings protected from outside noise, and this for a very low cost, since the fastening clip according to this invention will allow both easy transport of the panels and an almost immediate attachment thereof on the wall to be dressed or protected.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et illustré qui n'a été donné qu'à titre d'exemple.Of course, the invention is in no way limited to the embodiment described and illustrated, which has been given only by way of example.

C'est ainsi que l'attache pourra s'appliquer à n'importe quel type de panneau présentant bien évidemment une certaine rigidité.This is how the fastener can be applied to any type of panel obviously having a certain rigidity.
