Abstract

The inventive cladding panel is embodied in such a way that it is stackable in a small volume ensuring a good mechanical resistance to different forces, in particular to wind forces. The result is obtained in that the panel is provided with two wings (20, 30) which are substentially parallel with respect to each other and slightly inclined with respect to the plane which is perpendicular to the core sheet (10) of the panel. One (20) of two wings comprises a section (23) which is more inclined to said perpendicular plane in such a way that the other wing of the panel adjacent to a triangular cross section caisson is formed when two panels are nested into each other.

Description

La présente invention concerne des profilés ou plateaux métalliques, utilisés en construction pour la réalisation de parois verticales ou horizontales.The present invention relates to metal profiles or trays, used in construction for producing vertical or horizontal walls.

On utilise de tels plateaux pour réaliser des parois murales ou des plafonds ou couvertures de bâtiments, ces profilés étant souvent désignés par l'expression « plateaux de bardage ».Such trays are used to make walls or ceilings or roofs of buildings, these profiles are often referred to as "cladding trays".

On connaît de tels plateaux comprenant une âme et deux ailes s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à ladite âme, chacune de ces deux ailes délimitant une sorte de crochet ouvert vers l'extérieur du plateau, qui est destiné lors de l'assemblage de plateaux, à coopérer avec l'extrémité du plateau adjacent pour réaliser un emboîtement permettant d'empêcher les déplacements rotatifs de ces plateaux selon une direction sensiblement parallèle au plan de l'âme et suivant une direction sensiblement perpendiculaire à ce même plan. De plus, l'emboîtement de deux ailes adjacentes délimite une forme en caisson procurant à l'ensemble une bonne rigidité.Such trays are known comprising a core and two wings extending substantially perpendicularly to said core, each of these two wings delimiting a kind of hook open towards the outside of the plate, which is intended during the assembly of trays, to cooperating with the end of the adjacent plate to achieve an interlocking to prevent the rotational displacement of these trays in a direction substantially parallel to the plane of the core and in a direction substantially perpendicular to the same plane. In addition, the interlocking of two adjacent wings delimits a box shape providing overall good rigidity.

C'est notamment le cas pour le plateau décrit dans le document CA-1123568 qui comporte des ailes dont les portions des parties principales qui sont parallèles entre elles, sont perpendiculaires au plan de l'âme du plateau. II en résulte que le mode d'emboîtement représenté à la figure 3 du document canadien ne peut en réalité être réalisé, ou bien ne pourrait l'être qu'avec des plateaux présentant de l'un à l'autre des dimensions différentes.This is particularly the case for the plate described in CA-1123568 which comprises wings whose portions of the main portions which are parallel to each other, are perpendicular to the plane of the core of the plate. As a result, the nesting mode shown in Figure 3 of the Canadian document can actually be achieved, or could be achieved with trays having different dimensions to each other.

De tels plateaux présentent l'inconvénient d'occuper un volume très important lorsqu'ils doivent être empilés les uns sur les autres pour être transportés ou stockés.Such trays have the disadvantage of occupying a very large volume when they must be stacked on top of each other to be transported or stored.

On a cherché à pallier cet inconvénient, notamment dans le document FR 2 831 573, en proposant un plateau qui ne comporte pratiquement qu'une aile et dont la forme est adaptée pour réaliser les emboîtements nécessaires entre deux plateaux adjacents, tout en requérant un volume beaucoup moins important lors du transport ou du stockage.It has been sought to overcome this drawback, in particular in document FR 2 831 573, by proposing a plate which comprises practically only one wing and whose shape is adapted to make the necessary interlocking between two adjacent plates, while requiring a volume much less important during transport or storage.

Toutefois, le profilé décrit dans ce document, s'il résout de façon satisfaisante le problème de l'encombrement, n'offre pas des performances tout à fait suffisantes en ce qui concerne la résistance aux efforts dus au vent. Il nécessite par ailleurs, au moins dans une de ses variantes, une consommation de métal un peu plus importante, pour compenser un certain manque de rigidité. De plus, sa fabrication est relativement compliquée.However, the profile described in this document, if satisfactorily solves the problem of congestion, does not offer any performance. sufficient for resistance to wind loads. It also requires, at least in one of its variants, a somewhat larger metal consumption, to compensate for a certain lack of rigidity. In addition, its manufacture is relatively complicated.

Le but de cette invention est de réaliser un plateau utilisable comme élément de construction, qui permette de concilier à la fois une résistance satisfaisante aux différents types d'efforts et un volume faible lors du stockage ou du transport.The purpose of this invention is to provide a plate usable as a construction element, which reconciles both a satisfactory resistance to different types of forces and a low volume during storage or transport.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un plateau utilisable comme élément de construction, formé d'un profilé métallique comprenant une âme ou plage et deux ailes s'étendant à partir de deux bords longitudinaux, opposés de ladite âme, chaque aile comportant un rebord qui est sensiblement parallèle au plan de l'âme et s'étend vers l'extérieur du plateau, caractérisé en ce que les deux ailes d'un même plateau comportent chacune une partie principale, ces parties principales étant sensiblement parallèles entre elles sur au moins une partie de leur longueur et formant avec un plan perpendiculaire au plan de l'âme du plateau un angle compris entre 5 et 15°, celle des deux ailes qui est inclinée vers l'intérieur du plateau comportant une partie qui prolonge la partie principale et qui est davantage inclinée vers l'intérieur du plateau, le rebord de cette même aile s'étendant vers l'extérieur du plateau à partir du bord de ladite partie inclinée qui est le plus éloigné de la partie principale.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a plate that can be used as a construction element, formed of a metal section comprising a core or beach and two wings extending from two longitudinal edges, opposite to said core, each wing comprising a flange which is substantially parallel to the plane of the core and extends towards the outside of the plate, characterized in that the two wings of the same plate each comprise a main part, these main parts being substantially parallel to each other on at least a part of their length and forming with a plane perpendicular to the plane of the core of the plate an angle of between 5 and 15 °, that of the two wings which is inclined towards the inside of the plate having a part which extends the part main course and which is more inclined towards the interior of the board, the rim of this same wing extending towards the outside of the board from the edge of said inclined part which is the most Loigné of the main portion.

On voit sur la figure 1, un plateau P selon l'invention, constitué par un profilé métallique réalisé en un matériau connu et dans des épaisseurs qui sont également classiques pour ce type de produit.FIG. 1 shows a plate P according to the invention consisting of a metal section made of a known material and in thicknesses that are also conventional for this type of product.

Le plateau selon l'invention comprend une âme 10 pouvant comporter une ou plusieurs nervures longitudinales 12 et deux ailes 20, 30 s'étendant à partir de deux bords longitudinaux opposés de l'âme du profilé.The tray according to the invention comprises a core 10 may comprise one or more longitudinal ribs 12 and two wings 20, 30 extending from two opposite longitudinal edges of the web of the profile.

L'originalité dé ce plateau réside principalement dans la forme qui est donnée à ces ailes.The originality of this plateau lies mainly in the shape that is given to these wings.

On qualifiera dans la suite de la description d'« intérieur » la partie du plateau comprise entre les deux ailes de ce même plateau, le terme « extérieur » désignant les zones de l'espace situées à l'extérieur de ces deux ailes.In the rest of the description will be described as "inside" the part of the plateau between the two wings of the same plateau, the term "outside" designating the areas of the space located outside these two wings.

La première aile située à gauche sur le dessin comporte une première partie ou partie principale 21, qui lui donne son orientation générale et qui est raccordée à l'âme par un pan coupé 22 formant avec cette âme un angle de l'ordre de 45°.The first wing located on the left in the drawing comprises a first portion or main portion 21, which gives it its general orientation and which is connected to the core by a cutaway 22 forming with this soul an angle of the order of 45 ° .

Ladite partie principale 21 de l'aile 20 est légèrement inclinée vers l'intérieur du plateau et forme avec un plan P2 perpendiculaire au plan général P1 de l'âme un angle α compris entre 5 et 15° et de préférence voisin de 10°.Said main portion 21 of the wing 20 is slightly inclined towards the inside of the plate and forms with a plane P 2 perpendicular to the general plane P 1 of the core an angle α of between 5 and 15 ° and preferably close to 10 °.

Cette partie principale 21 est prolongée par une deuxième partie 23 davantage inclinée vers l'intérieur du plateau et l'extrémité de cette partie inclinée est elle-même prolongée par un rebord 24 parallèle à l'âme et dirigé vers l'extérieur du plateau, le bord libre de ce rebord se trouvant sensiblement dans le prolongement de la partie principale de l'aile.This main part 21 is extended by a second part 23 more inclined towards the inside of the plate and the end of this inclined part is itself extended by a rim 24 parallel to the core and directed towards the outside of the plate, the free edge of this rim being substantially in the extension of the main part of the wing.

La deuxième aile 30, située à droite sur la figure 1 comprend une partie principale 31 qui lui donne son orientation et qui est sensiblement parallèle à la partie principale 21 de la première aile 20, c'est-à-dire qu'elle forme avec un plan P2 perpendiculaire au plan P1 de l'âme du plateau un angle compris entre 5 et 15° et de préférence égal ou voisin de 10°. Cette partie principale 31 est elle aussi reliée à l'âme par un pan coupé 32 incliné par exemple à 45°. La partie principale 31 de l'aile comporte à son extrémité un rebord 34 parallèle au plan P1 de l'âme et dirigé vers l'extérieur du plateau, et dont la largeur est légèrement inférieure à celle du rebord 24 de la première aile. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, le rebord 34 est prolongé par un retour 35 formant avec le rebord un angle compris entré 40 et 60°, de préférence égal à ou voisin de 49°.The second wing 30, located on the right in FIG. 1, comprises a main part 31 which gives it its orientation and which is substantially parallel to the main part 21 of the first wing 20, that is to say that it forms with a plane P 2 perpendicular to the plane P 1 of the core of the plate an angle of between 5 and 15 ° and preferably equal to or close to 10 °. This main part 31 is also connected to the core by a cut-off end 32 inclined for example at 45 °. The main portion 31 of the wing has at its end a flange 34 parallel to the plane P 1 of the core and directed outwardly of the plate, and whose width is slightly smaller than that of the flange 24 of the first wing. In the embodiment shown, the flange 34 is extended by a return 35 forming with the flange an angle between 40 and 60 °, preferably equal to or close to 49 °.

Cet emboîtement s'effectue par engagement de l'aile 20 du plateau supérieur Ps sur l'aile 30 du plateau inférieur PI.FIG. 2 shows a nesting between two adjacent sections or cladding boards P s , P i . This engagement is effected by engagement of the wing 20 of the upper plate P s on the flange 30 of the lower plate P I.

Les deux parties principales 21, 31 des deux ailes sont en contact mutuel tandis que leurs extrémités délimitent une partie 40 en caisson de forme, triangulaire. Les deux rebords 24 et 34 se chevauchent et le retour 35 vient en appui contre la partie plus inclinée 23 de l'aile 20.The two main parts 21, 31 of the two wings are in contact with each other while their ends delimit a portion 40 in box shaped, triangular. The two flanges 24 and 34 overlap and the return 35 bears against the more inclined portion 23 of the flange 20.

La fixation entre deux plateaux adjacents est réalisée au moyen de vis auto-taraudeuses de couturage 41 disposées dans la zone des parties principales 21, 31 des deux ailes, et au moyen de vis auto-taraudeuses 42 réalisant simultanément la fixation de panneaux de contre-bardage (non représentés) au niveau des rebords 24 et 34.Fixing between two adjacent trays is carried out by means of self-tapping seaming screws 41 arranged in the zone of the main parts 21, 31 of the two wings, and by means of self-tapping screws 42 simultaneously producing the fixing of counter panels. cladding (not shown) at the edges 24 and 34.

A cet égard, la présence du retour 35 est importante car grâce à cette disposition, le rebord 34 est parfaitement maintenu et ne risque pas de s'écarter du rebord 24 lors de la mise en place des vis auto-taraudeuses 42, inconvénient que l'on rencontre avec certains dispositifs de l'art antérieur.In this respect, the presence of the return 35 is important because thanks to this arrangement, the flange 34 is perfectly maintained and is not likely to deviate from the flange 24 during the introduction of the self-tapping screws 42, a disadvantage that the we meet with some devices of the prior art.

En position de transport, des plateaux selon l'invention peuvent être empilés comme représenté à la figure 3 et l'on peut constater à la simple vue de cette figure que cet empilage peut être réalisé avec une perte de place extrêmement réduite par rapport à ce que l'on pouvait connaître avec les plateaux de l'art antérieur.In the transport position, trays according to the invention can be stacked as shown in FIG. 3 and it can be seen at the mere sight of this figure that this stacking can be achieved with a loss of space which is extremely small compared to that that could be known with the trays of the prior art.

En position d'empilage, les ailes 20 s'emboîtent les unes dans les autres pratiquement sans jeu, tandis que les ailes 30 s'emboîtent avec un espacement vertical qui correspond sensiblement à la hauteur du retour 35. Le contact du côté des ailes 30 s'effectue, d'une part, au niveau de la zone inférieure 36 des parties principales 31 et, d'autre part, au niveau du bord libre du retour 35, qui vient en appui sur le rebord 34 du panneau situé immédiatement au-dessous.In the stacking position, the wings 20 fit into each other practically without play, while the wings 30 fit together with a vertical spacing that substantially corresponds to the height of the return 35. The contact of the side of the wings 30 on the one hand, at the level of the lower zone 36 of the main parts 31 and, on the other hand, at the free edge of the return 35, which bears on the rim 34 of the panel immediately below.

On a représenté sur la figure 4 une variante d'un plateau selon l'invention.FIG. 4 shows a variant of a tray according to the invention.

Cette variante se distingue du premier mode de réalisation au niveau de la forme des ailes 50, 60.This variant differs from the first embodiment in terms of the shape of the wings 50, 60.

La première aile 50 comporte dans sa partie principale 51 un décrochement de façon à délimiter une surface 56 s'étendant à partir du pan coupé 52 et dont l'inclinaison par rapport au plan de l'âme est sensiblement la même que celle du pan coupé 62 de l'autre aile.The first wing 50 has in its main part 51 a recess so as to define a surface 56 extending from the cutaway 52 and whose inclination relative to the plane of the core is substantially the same as that of the cutaway 62 on the other wing.

Par ailleurs, le pan coupé 62 a une longueur supérieure à celle du pan coupé 52 de la première aile, de façon à délimiter une surface d'appui 62a pour la surface 56. Les parties terminales 53, 54 ; 64, 65 des ailes 50, 60, sont analogues à celles des ailes 20, 30 du premier mode de réalisation.Furthermore, the cutaway 62 has a length greater than that of the cutaway 52 of the first wing, so as to define a supporting surface 62a to the surface 56. The end portions 53, 54; 64, 65 of the wings 50, 60, are similar to those of the wings 20, 30 of the first embodiment.

On voit sur la figure 5 l'emboîtement de deux profilés adjacents conformes à ce deuxième mode de réalisation. L'emboîtement au voisinage des extrémités des deux ailes 50, 60 est le même que dans le premier mode de réalisation. Par contre, du fait de' la présence du décrochement et de sa coopération avec le pan coupé 62 de l'aile 60, le maintien relatif et l'accrochage entre deux panneaux adjacents, suivant une direction sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan des plateaux, se trouvent améliorés.FIG. 5 shows the interlocking of two adjacent sections in accordance with this second embodiment. The nesting in the vicinity of the ends of the two wings 50, 60 is the same as in the first embodiment. On the other hand, because of the presence of the recess and its cooperation with the cutaway 62 of the wing 60, the relative retention and the hooking between two adjacent panels, in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the plates, are improved.

Le mode d'empilage de ce plateau modifié est analogue à ce qui a été décrit et représenté à propos du premier mode de réalisation, de sorte qu'il n'a pas paru utile de le représenter.The stacking mode of this modified tray is similar to what has been described and shown with respect to the first embodiment, so that it did not seem useful to represent it.

Il résulte de ce qui précède qu'un plateau selon l'invention permet de résoudre de façon satisfaisante les différents problèmes posés. En effet:

  • ce plateau présente un profil relativement simple de sorte que sa fabrication est aisée et son prix de revient relativement bas ;
  • la résistance aux différents efforts est satisfaisante, du fait de la faible inclinaison des ailes des plateaux par rapport à une direction perpendiculaire à l'âme de ces plateaux ainsi que du fait de la constitution d'une structure en caisson lors de l'emboîtement de deux plateaux adjacents ;
  • la fixation de contre-bardages et la solidarisation entre deux plateaux adjacents est réalisée de façon efficace au moyen de vis auto-taraudeuses, et la présence du retour 35 garantit le maintien du rebord 34 en position ce qui assure de ce fait que les vis auto-taraudeuses traversent bien les deux rebords ;
  • l'empilage de ces plateaux peut être réalisé avec une perte de place minimale, ce qui constitue un avantage substantiel pour en effectuer le transport et le stockage.
It follows from the foregoing that a tray according to the invention satisfactorily solves the various problems posed. Indeed:
  • this tray has a relatively simple profile so that its manufacture is easy and its cost relatively low;
  • the resistance to the various forces is satisfactory, because of the low inclination of the wings of the plates relative to a direction perpendicular to the core of these plates and because of the constitution of a box structure during the nesting of two adjacent trays;
  • the fixing of counter-cladding and securing between two adjacent trays is effected effectively by means of self-tapping screws, and the presence of the return 35 ensures the maintenance of the flange 34 in position which ensures that the self-screws -tarsteuses cross the two edges well;
  • the stacking of these trays can be achieved with a minimal loss of space, which is a substantial advantage for transport and storage.

Bien entendu, de nombreuses variantes peuvent être réalisées, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de cette invention telle que décrite dans les revendications, portant notamment sur les formes de détail des plateaux, les dimensions des différents tronçons des profilés et les valeurs des angles entre ces différents tronçons.Of course, many variants can be made without departing from the scope of this invention as described in the claims, including the forms of detail of the trays, the dimensions of the different sections of the profiles and the values of the angles between them. different sections.

C'est ainsi, par exemple, que les extrémités des deux ailes 70, 80 peuvent être conformées et dimensionnées de telle façon que ce soit le rebord 84 de l'aile inclinée vers l'extérieur du plateau correspondant qui vienne chevaucher le rebord 74 de l'aile 70 inclinée vers l'intérieur du plateau adjacent, comme représenté sur la figure 6. On obtient alors une meilleure solidarisation entre deux plateaux adjacents, mais au détriment de l'absence d'appui entre le retour 35, 65 et l'aile adjacente que permettent d'assurer les modes de réalisation des figures 1, 2 et 4, 5.Thus, for example, the ends of the two wings 70, 80 may be shaped and dimensioned such that it is the flange 84 of the flange inclined outward of the corresponding plate which straddles the flange 74 of the wing 70 inclined inwardly of the adjacent plate, as shown in FIG. 6. This gives better bonding between two adjacent plates, but to the detriment of the absence of support between the return 35, 65 and the adjacent wing that can ensure the embodiments of Figures 1, 2 and 4, 5.
