Description

La présente invention concerne une construction de façade comprenant des montants, des traverses, des accessoires pour maintenir les traverses en position entre deux montants lors du montage et des moyens de fixation fixant les extrémités des traverses aux montants.The present invention relates to a facade construction including uprights, crosspieces, accessories to keep the sleepers in position between two uprights during mounting and fixing means fixing the ends of the crosspieces to the uprights.

Une telle construction de façade forme en fait le cadre porteur de ce que l'on appelle une façade mur-écran par laquelle on fixe dans ce cadre des vitres et/ou des panneaux constitués par différents matériaux.Such a facade construction actually forms the framework carrier of what is called a wall-screen facade by which is fixed in this context windows and / or panels made of different materials.

Les accessoires précités dans la construction de façade de ce type servent à amener les traverses à l'endroit souhaité entre les montants et à maintenir par la suite en place les traverses appliquées, de façon à pouvoir les fixer à demeure aux montants.The aforementioned accessories in facade construction of this type are used to bring the sleepers to the place desired between the amounts and to be maintained thereafter in places the applied crosspieces, so that they can be fix permanently to the uprights.

Dans des constructions de façades connues, les accessoires précités pour maintenir en place les traverses entre deux montants avant leur fixation finale à ces montants sont constituées par de petits éléments de support dans lesquels sont pratiquées plusieurs rainures de glissement horizontales et qui sont fixés aux montants au moyen de vis.In known facade constructions, the aforementioned accessories for holding the sleepers between two uprights before their final fixing to these amounts consist of small elements of support in which several grooves are made horizontal sliding and which are fixed to the uprights by means of screws.

Les traverses sont munies, dans ce cas, de saillies qui sont à même de coulisser dans ces rainures de glissement lors du placement des traverses entre les deux montants, ce placement des traverses ayant lieu à partir du côté avant de la construction de façade.The sleepers are provided, in this case, with projections which are able to slide in these sliding grooves when placing the sleepers between the two uprights, this placement of sleepers taking place from the side before the facade construction.

Après avoir placé les traverses à l'endroit qui convient entre deux montants au moyen des petits éléments de support précités, dans cette construction connue, la traverse est fixée à demeure aux montants à l'aide de vis.After placing the sleepers in the appropriate place between two uprights by means of the small elements of aforementioned support, in this known construction, the crosspiece is permanently fixed to the uprights using screws.

L'inconvénient lié à ces constructions de façades connues réside dans le fait que, pour le placement de chaque traverse, on a besoin de deux hommes, étant donné que le placement des saillies des traverses dans les rainures de glissement requiert une précision extraordinaire par le fait qu'il existe peu de jeu entre les saillies et les rainures de glissement.The drawback associated with these known facade constructions lies in the fact that for the placement of each cross, we need two men, since the placement of the crossbar projections in the grooves of sliding requires extraordinary precision by the there is little clearance between the projections and the sliding grooves.

Un autre inconvénient lié à ces constructions connues réside dans le fait que le maintien en place des traverses amenées entre les montants, avant la fixation à demeure des traverses aux montants, n'est pas toujours garanti avec les petits éléments de support précités, par le fait que les traverses dans ces constructions de façades connues sont encore à même d'être poussées vers l'extérieur.Another drawback linked to these known constructions lies in the fact that keeping cross-pieces brought between the uprights, before fixing permanently from the crosspieces to the uprights, is not always guaranteed with the aforementioned small support elements, by the fact that the sleepers in these constructions of known facades are still able to be pushed towards outside.

En outre, les petits éléments de support, que l'on utilise dans ces constructions connues, possèdent une forme compliquée et sont relativement coûteux.In addition, the small support elements, which are used in these known constructions, have a complicated form and are relatively expensive.

En conséquence, la présente invention a pour objet une construction de façade qui évite les inconvénients précités liés aux constructions connues et qui permet de placer de manière simple et précise les traverses entre deux montants. Consequently, the subject of the present invention is a façade construction which avoids the disadvantages aforementioned linked to known constructions and which makes it possible to simple and precise positioning of the sleepers between two amounts.

Cet objet est réalisé conformément à l'invention par le fait que les accessoires pour le placement d'une traverse entre deux montants comprennent des moyens élastiques qui agissent sur la traverse correspondante et/ou sur les montants.This object is produced in accordance with the invention by the makes the accessories for placing a crosspiece between two uprights include elastic means which act on the corresponding cross member and / or on the amounts.

On a en effet constaté qu'en utilisant des moyens élastiques de ce type, une traverse peut être appliquée par un seul homme et que le dégagement de la traverse vers l'extérieur est empêché par ces moyens élastiques.We have indeed found that by using means elastic of this type, a cross member can be applied by one man and that the clearance of the cross outward is prevented by these elastic means.

Conformément à l'invention, il est avantageux de fixer les moyens élastiques précités aux montants de la construction de façade en insérant la partie élastique de ces moyens, après le placement d'une traverse, dans chaque extrémité de cette traverse, si bien que la traverse appliquée est maintenue aussi bien en direction horizontale qu'en direction verticale.In accordance with the invention, it is advantageous to fix the elastic means mentioned above to the amounts of the facade construction by inserting the elastic part of these means, after the placement of a cross, in each end of this crosspiece, so that the applied cross member is held in both direction horizontal only in vertical direction.

Le placement des traverses de cette manière entre deux montants forme une fixation pour ainsi dire provisoire des traverses correspondantes, si bien qu'elles ne peuvent plus être poussées vers l'extérieur par inadvertance après leur placement entre les montants, les traverses étant, après cette fixation provisoire, fixées de manière définitive et inamovible par rapport aux montants à l'aide de vis.Placing the sleepers in this way between two uprights form a so-called temporary fixation corresponding sleepers, so that they do not can no longer be pushed outward by inadvertently after being placed between the uprights, the being, after this temporary fixing, fixed permanently and irremovable in relation to uprights using screws.

De préférence, les parties élastiques se détournent des montants et s'étendent vers le côté arrière de la construction de façade.Preferably, the elastic parts turn away from the uprights and extend to the rear side of the facade construction.

Conformément à l'invention, il est avantageux de former les moyens élastiques à l'aide d'une plaquette pliée en acier à ressort.According to the invention, it is advantageous to form the elastic means using a plate folded in spring steel.

Des plaquettes pliées de ce type peuvent être réalisées de manière simple et à bon marché, et elles peuvent être fixées aux montants de n'importe quelles manières, comme par exemple à l'aide de colle, de rivets, de vis ou analogues.Folded inserts of this type can be made simply and inexpensively, and they can be attached to the uprights in any way, such as for example using glue, rivets, screws or analogues.

De préférence, dans la construction de façade selon l'invention, les traverses sont munies, sur leur côté arrière et à leurs deux extrémités, d'un évidement pour permettre l'application de la traverse par-dessus les moyens élastiques.Preferably, in facade construction according to the invention, the sleepers are provided, on their side rear and at their two ends, a recess for allow the application of the sleeper over the elastic means.

La présente invention concerne également un montant qui est muni de moyens élastiques à utiliser dans l'une quelconque des constructions de façades précitées selon l'invention.The present invention also relates to an amount which is provided with elastic means to be used in one any of the aforementioned facade constructions according to the invention.

De même, la présente invention concerne un procédé pour le montage d'une traverse entre deux montants d'une construction de façade, par lequel on fixe des moyens élastiques sur les montants et on applique ensuite la traverse par-dessus ces moyens élastiques, après quoi on fixe cette traverse aux montants par des moyens de fixation.Likewise, the present invention relates to a method for mounting a crosspiece between two uprights of a facade construction, by which means are fixed elastic on the uprights and then apply the cross over these elastic means, after which we fixes this crosspiece to the uprights by means of fixation.

Les moyens élastiques précités peuvent, que ce soit au préalable à l'atelier ou lors du montage de la construction de façade, être fixés sur les montants précités.The aforementioned elastic means can, whether at prior to the workshop or when assembling the façade construction, to be fixed on the uprights cited above.

Dans le but de mieux indiquer les caractéristiques selon l'invention, on décrit ci-après, à titre d'exemple, sans aucun caractère limitatif, quelques formes de réalisation préférées de la construction de façade, des montants et du procédé selon l'invention en se référant aux dessins annexés dans lesquels:

  • la figure 1 est une vue schématique en perspective d'une construction de façade selon l'invention;
  • la figure 2 représente, à plus grande échelle et en perspective, une vue arrière d'un élément du système de façade selon la figure 1;
  • la figure 3 est une vue à plus petite échelle analogue à celle de la figure 2, mais après l'application d'un élément d'étanchéification;
  • la figure 4 représente une coupe transversale prise le long de la ligne IV-IV en figure 2;
  • la figure 5 est une vue en perspective analogue à celle de la figure 2, mais dans une vue avant et selon une autre forme de réalisation de l'invention;
  • la figure 6 représente une coupe transversale prise le long de la ligne VI-VI en figure 5.
  • In order to better indicate the characteristics according to the invention, there are described below, by way of example, without any limiting character, some preferred embodiments of the facade construction, the uprights and the method according to the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view of a facade construction according to the invention;
  • 2 shows, on a larger scale and in perspective, a rear view of an element of the facade system according to Figure 1;
  • Figure 3 is a view on a smaller scale similar to that of Figure 2, but after the application of a sealing element;
  • Figure 4 shows a cross section taken along line IV-IV in Figure 2;
  • Figure 5 is a perspective view similar to that of Figure 2, but in a front view and according to another embodiment of the invention;
  • FIG. 6 represents a cross section taken along the line VI-VI in FIG. 5.
  • La construction de façade 1, telle que représentée dans les figures 1 à 4, comprend des montants 2, des traverses 3 et des moyens élastiques 4.The facade construction 1, as shown in Figures 1 to 4, includes uprights 2, sleepers 3 and elastic means 4.

    Les montants 2 et les traverses 3 sont réalisés par exemple en aluminium et peuvent présenter quelques profils creux que ce soit.The uprights 2 and the crosspieces 3 are made by aluminum example and may have some hollow profiles whatsoever.

    A ses deux extrémités, la traverse 3 possède des parties 5 faisant saillie sur le devant, avec lesquelles la traverse 3 vient se raccorder contre le côté avant des montants 2. At its two ends, the cross-member 3 has parts 5 projecting from the front, with which the crosspiece 3 is connected against the front side of the amounts 2.

    Les moyens élastiques 4 sont réalisés de préférence sous forme d'une lame ressort, à l'aide par exemple d'une plaquette en acier élastique pliée qui est constituée par deux parties respectivement 6 et 7, la partie 7 étant fixée au montant 2 au moyen de deux vis 8 et la partie qui forme la partie élastique 6 proprement dite et qui a la forme d'une lame se détourne du montant 2 et s'étend vers l'arrière. La hauteur de la plaquette 4, à savoir la sécante des parties 6 et 7, est légèrement inférieure à la hauteur du côté interne de la traverse creuse 3.The elastic means 4 are preferably produced under shape of a spring leaf, for example using a folded elastic steel plate which consists of two parts respectively 6 and 7, part 7 being fixed to the upright 2 by means of two screws 8 and the part which forms the elastic part 6 proper and which has the shape of a blade turns away from the upright 2 and extends rearward. The height of the plate 4, namely the secant of parts 6 and 7, is slightly less than the height of the internal side of the hollow cross member 3.

    La traverse 3 est en outre munie, sur son côté arrière 9 et sur ses deux extrémités, d'évidements 10 dont la largeur A est définie en fonction de l'épaisseur B de la plaquette 4 et de l'épaisseur C de la tête des vis 7.The cross member 3 is further provided, on its rear side 9 and on its two ends, recesses 10, the width A is defined according to the thickness B of the plate 4 and the thickness C of the head of the screws 7.

    Pour obtenir une réalisation élégante, on peut appliquer des éléments d'étanchéification ou embouts de finition 11 réalisés par exemple en PVC, par-dessus les évidements 10 et ces éléments 11 peuvent éventuellement se prolonger jusqu'au côté supérieur 12 de la traverse 3, comme représenté en figure 3.To obtain an elegant realization, one can apply sealing elements or end fittings 11 made for example of PVC, over the recesses 10 and these elements 11 can possibly extend to the upper side 12 of the cross member 3, as shown in figure 3.

    Enfin, la traverse 3 est fixée aux montants 2, à l'aide de moyens de fixation 13, par exemple des vis autotaraudeuses 13 constituées d'acier inoxydable.Finally, the cross-member 3 is fixed to the uprights 2, using fixing means 13, for example screws self-tapping 13 made of stainless steel.

    Les figures 5 et 6 concernent une variante de forme de réalisation d'une construction de façade 1 qui se distingue de la forme de réalisation selon les figures 1 à 4 uniquement par le fait que les traverses 3 sont plus larges, ceci ayant pour conséquence que l'on doit adapter la forme des moyens élastiques 4 pour garantir un emplacement parfait de la traverse. La fixation de ces moyens élastiques 4 aux montants est également identique au mode de fixation dans la forme de réalisation précitée, plus précisément de telle sorte que la partie élastique 6 sous forme d'une lame ressort se détourne du montant 2 et s'étend vers l'arrière.Figures 5 and 6 relate to a variant form of realization of a facade construction 1 which is distinguishes from the embodiment according to Figures 1 to 4 only by the fact that the crosspieces 3 are more wide, which means that we have to adapt the shape of the elastic means 4 to guarantee a perfect location of the sleeper. Fixing these elastic means 4 to the uprights is also identical to the method of attachment in the embodiment above, more precisely so that the part elastic 6 in the form of a leaf spring turns away from the upright 2 and extends backwards.

    Les traverses 3 sont amenées entre les montants 2 en glissant sur le devant de la construction de façade entre deux montants 2, comme indiqué par la flèche D en figure 1. En l'occurrence, l'élément 6 du ressort à lames 4 est poussé à l'écart dans la direction des montants 2 par le côté arrière 9 de la traverse 3.The crosspieces 3 are brought between the uprights 2 in sliding across the front of the facade construction between two uprights 2, as indicated by the arrow D in the figure 1. In this case, the element 6 of the leaf spring 4 is pushed away in the direction of the uprights 2 by the rear side 9 of cross member 3.

    Au moment où le côté arrière 9 d'une traverse 3 arrive au-delà de la partie élastique 6 sous forme de lame ressort, cette partie élastique 6 se débande ou se détend et retourne à sa position initiale, si bien que la traverse 3 ne peut plus être dégagée vers l'extérieur et, étant donné que le déplacement ultérieur vers l'arrière de la traverse 3 vers l'arrière est en plus empêché par les parties saillantes 5 de la traverse 3, cette dernière est maintenue en direction horizontale.When the rear side 9 of a cross 3 arrives beyond the elastic part 6 in the form of a blade spring, this elastic part 6 loosens or relaxes and returns to its original position, so that the cross member 3 can no longer be released to the outside and, since the subsequent displacement backwards of the crossmember 3 towards the rear is further prevented by the protruding parts 5 of the cross member 3, the latter is held in a horizontal direction.

    En direction verticale, la traverse 3 est également maintenue par le fait qu'elle s'appuie avec son côté supérieur 12 sur les parties 6 et 7 des moyens élastiques 4 qui sont insérées dans les extrémités de la traverse 3 et par le fait que la hauteur des moyens précités 4 est approximativement égale à la hauteur du côté interne de la traverse creuse 3.In the vertical direction, the crosspiece 3 is also maintained by the fact that it leans with its side upper 12 on parts 6 and 7 of the elastic means 4 which are inserted into the ends of the cross-member 3 and by the fact that the height of the aforementioned means 4 is approximately equal to the height of the inner side of the hollow cross member 3.

    La partie 6 formant une lame ressort assure donc la double fonction de localisation et de reprise de charges. Cette partie 6 est élastiquement mobile en direction horizontale par rapport au montant 2 sur lequel elle est fixée, mais forme en position de repos un arrêt pour la traverse 3.Part 6 forming a spring blade therefore ensures the dual localization and load recovery function. This part 6 is elastically movable in the direction horizontal with respect to the upright 2 on which it is fixed, but forms in the rest position a stop for the cross 3.

    Après le placement décrit ci-devant de la traverse 3 entre les montants 2 décrit ci-avant, la traverse 3 est fixée à demeure à l'aide des moyens de fixation 13; après quoi, on peut appliquer encore un élément d'étanchéification ou embout de finition 11 par-dessus les évidements 10.After the placement described above of the cross 3 between the uprights 2 described above, the crosspiece 3 is permanently fixed with the fixing means 13; after what, we can apply one more element sealing or finishing cap 11 over the recesses 10.

    La construction de façade 1 est maintenant prête pour pouvoir y insérer une vitre et/ou des panneaux.The facade construction 1 is now ready for ability to insert glass and / or panels.

    La présente invention n'est en aucune façon limitée aux formes de réalisation décrites à titre d'exemple et représentées dans les figures; la construction de façade et le procédé selon l'invention peuvent être mis en oeuvre conformément à différentes variantes sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.The present invention is in no way limited to embodiments described by way of example and shown in the figures; facade construction and the method according to the invention can be implemented works according to different variants without leaving the part of the invention.
