Definitions

  • the present patent application for industrial invention refers to an equipment for the construction of modular equipped walls.
  • the solutions that are currently available for the construction of equipped walls can be basically classified into two groups: fixed systems and removable systems.
  • the first group includes solutions such as coatings with plates made of different materials (plasterboard, fibre panels, etc.) permanently fixed to spacing structures generally obtained with metal, plastic or wood sections.
  • the second group includes modular solutions.
  • the most popular construction technique provides for a sequence of modules in vertical (or horizontal) direction so that fixing of each module to the bearing wall (either directly or with the interposition of special spacers) can be hidden by the next module, while automatically guaranteeing perfect matching between contiguous elements.
  • Dismounting must be necessarily executed in reverse order.
  • the present invention intends to give a new stimulus to the technique, with the specific purpose of overcoming the aforementioned drawbacks of traditional constructions.
  • the first purpose of the present invention is to provide a modular equipment for the construction of equipped modular walls, characterised by easy mounting and dismounting and, most of all, able to ensure individual dismounting of each panel (or module) for replacement or inspection, without having to dismount the entire structure of the equipped wall.
  • the second, equally significant, purpose of the present invention is to provide a modular structure designed to support the equipped wall that can be maintained at a certain distance from the bearing masonry wall, leaving the space free from any obstacles; this creates a gap between the modular structure and the bearing masonry wall that can be used to "hide” cables or pipes from different installations.
  • Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a modular structure able to guarantee perfect perpendicular installation of the panels of the equipped wall (regardless of irregularities on the surface of the masonry wall used for fixing), as well as perfect perpendicular direction of contiguous walls.
  • a further purpose of the equipment of the invention is to give a pleasant aesthetics to the equipped wall obtained with it, characterised by clean linear shapes due to the fact that the means used to attach the different panels that create the vertical surface of the equipped wall are not visible.
  • the last purpose of the present invention is to provide a bearing modular structure for equipped walls characterised by high functional versatility, able to support the panels used to create the vertical surface of the equipped wall according to the different combination of the bearing modular elements.
  • the equipment of the invention is made of two elements (or modules) that are suitably combined to create a bearing vertical structure used to frontally support a series of cover panels forming the continuous vertical surface of the equipped wall under construction.
  • the first module is a special metal section designed to be mounted in vertical position on the front of the masonry wall; the second module is a special spacer used to fix the metal section against the masonry wall (the number of spacers being determined by the number of sections).
  • Each metal section is provided with a regularly spaced series of holes designed to receive suitable screws used to fix the section to the vertically aligned spacers.
  • each metal section into a spacing template, which imposes a predetermined fixing distance to the corresponding vertical row of spacers.
  • spacers may have a fixed length, chosen from time to time according to the specific installation needs of the bearing equipment for equipped walls.
  • the main advantage is represented by the fact that, as mentioned earlier, the vertical templates that create the fixing structure of the cover panels may be positioned at a predefined distance from the masonry wall, thus creating a space used to "hide" different types of installations.
  • spacing templates are anchored to the wall in punctiform configuration provides total freedom in case of horizontal or vertical cables and installations on the back of the equipped wall under construction.
  • the equipment of the invention allows to install the said installations against the masonry wall before mounting the equipped wall and, most of all, without the need to chase cables in the masonry wall.
  • first phase structure; second phase: coating modules
  • the spacers can have a telescopic structure to adjust their length as desired during installation together with the corresponding vertical template.
  • the telescopic structure further increases the technical-functional efficacy of the spacers.
  • each telescopic spacer is composed of a bearing prismatic body designed to be rigidly fixed to the masonry wall, and of an external coupling exactly matched with the bearing body and capable of sliding horizontally with respect to the bearing body; of course, the sliding coupling is designed to be joined with the back of each template.
  • each template is fixed to the wall with the interposition of multiple spacers in vertical alignment, it appears evident that each template (regardless of irregularities of the masonry wall) can be made perfectly perpendicular by adjusting the length of the telescopic spacers that belong to the vertical row used to support it.
  • the templates in cooperation with telescopic spacers, can adjust their position and offset non-perpendicular irregularities of the bearing wall and of the two contiguous bearing walls designed to be coated with the equipped wall obtained with the equipment of the invention.
  • each template is facilitated by the fact that the operator simply needs to adjust the length of the first and last spacer of the vertical row associated with the template.
  • This condition allows the template fixed in the same vertical row of spacers to acquire and maintain a position perfectly perpendicular to the floor.
  • Another advantage of the use of the said spacers is related to the fact that the spacers are made with sections having a considerable moment of inertia and therefore a considerable flexional resistance.
  • the new equipment of the invention can also be realised in a more sophisticated version, in which the front panels are not directly fixed (for example by means of vertical straps of structural velcro on the back) against the spacing templates, being matched with suitable metal sections fixed on the front of the templates and therefore converted into additional modular elements (or simply "modules") of the equipment.
  • the modular equipment of the invention is composed of a primary framework, formed by the aforementioned parallel series of vertical templates, and of a secondary framework, formed by a regular series of metal sections, preferably mounted in horizontal position.
  • Another advantage of the equipment is represented by the fact that the templates fixed to the masonry wall (creating the primary framework) are also provided with precision holes with predefined gauge designed to be used to fix the metal sections of the secondary framework.
  • the metal sections are provided with a series of slots used to insert the fixing screws designed to be engaged into the predefined gauge holes on the templates.
  • the presence of the holes with predefined gauge ensures exact and easy construction of the secondary framework, while it makes mounting of the bearing structure (formed by the combination of templates and sections) independent from the application of coating modules, or panels.
  • an advantageous self-blocking "snap-in" system is used to fix the panels that cover the double bearing framework; this system takes advantage of the special shape of the ribs located on the metal sections of the secondary framework.
  • Corresponding longitudinal borders are suitable located above the sections of the secondary framework, designed to be matched with a longitudinal groove on the lower edge of the cover panels.
  • the borders have an especially flared shape that, on one side, facilitates coupling between the borders and the lower longitudinal grooves on the cover panels and, on the other side, places the cover panels in standby position with a simple rotation movement (vasistas-type opening), thus giving access to the space in the back without removing the panels from their original housing, it being especially useful for rapid maintenance operations.
  • the equipment of the invention makes use of modules used in the number needed for the specific configuration.
  • the first module is composed of a template (1) with preferably "omega-shaped" transversal section, that is to say provided with a prominent central rib.
  • the second module is a special spacer (200) designed to be fixed on the back to the bearing masonry wall and on the front against the back of one template (1).
  • a vertical row of spacers (200) is designed to support a template (1) in perfect vertical position, as shown in figure 1A.
  • Multiple parallel rows of spacers (200) are designed to support the templates (1) that form the primary framework (O1) of the equipped wall in perfectly parallel position at a predefined distance from the masonry wall, as shown in figure 2.
  • the equipment of the invention may also be provided with a telescopic version (2) of the said spacer, provided with a length adjustment system - which will be illustrated hereinafter - actuated by the operator in charge of installing the equipment of the invention.
  • the presence of the telescopic spacers (2) also makes it possible to give different distances from the masonry wall to the contiguous templates (1), in order to mount cover panels with curved profile (400), as shown in figures 2A and 2B.
  • only the first and the last spacers of the row of telescopic spacers (2) associated with a template (1) are provided with an adjustment system with screw.
  • All the intermediate spacers (2000) are basically "idle", since they are simply able to extend and reduce their length, without fine adjustment means, as shown in figure 4.
  • the extension of the two adjustable end spacers (2) moves the template (1) forward; being joined with the intermediate idle spacers (2000), the template exerts traction that makes the heads of the intermediate idle spacers (2000) reach the imaginary vertical plane that contains the heads of the upper and lower adjustable spacers (2).
  • the primary framework (O1) of the equipment of the invention is obtained and can be used to fix (for example by means of vertical straps of structural velcro applied both on the front of the templates and on the back of the panels) cover panels that form the contiguous vertical surface (SV) of the equipped wall.
  • the first explanation refers to the need to make the template (1) rigid; such a rigidity may be advantageously used to adjust the perfect vertical position of each template with respect to the two telescopic spacers that occupy the lower and upper end position in the same row of spacers designed to support the template.
  • the rigidity of the template (1) prevents the template (1) from bending, which could impair the final vertical position during the adjustment of the length of the two telescopic spacers (2) at the ends.
  • the rigidity of the template (1) ensures simultaneous balanced traction or compression during the said operations (followed by the desired extension or reduction in length) with respect to all the intermediate spacers of the row.
  • the second explanation refers to the fact that the central longitudinal groove of the templates (2) needs to act as fulcrum with respect to the sections (3) of the secondary framework (02) when the secondary framework (02) needs to be mounted.
  • a further module of the equipment of the invention is composed of a metal section (3) designed to be fixed in parallel position with respect to identical modules on the front of the parallel series of templates (1) to create the so-called secondary framework (02) of the equipment, as shown in figure 3.
  • Each metal section (3) is designed to support - as illustrated hereinafter - a corresponding cover panel (4), which basically consists in an additional module of the equipment of the invention.
  • the sections (3) are fixed with a distance that allows the cover panels (4) mounted one above the other to create the vertical surface (SV) of the equipped wall; figures 5 and 6 show the sequence of mounting operations of the said cover panels (4) on the secondary framework (02).
  • each template (1) is provided with regularly spaced series of four through holes (10, 11 a, 11 b, 12) in cross-configuration, as expressly shown in figure 1.
  • each non-telescopic spacer (200) - of the type shown in figure 2 - consists in a plate (200a) fixed to the wall and provided with an opposite pair of lateral slots (200b) used to fix the plate (200a) against the masonry wall.
  • the plate (200) is fixed to a section of box-shaped metal section (201) with basically rectangular cross-section (a sort of coupling, practically speaking) provided on the internal sides with horizontal cores (202) and with an upper parallel core (203); in particular, the core (203) is supported in the centre of the section (201) by a suitable horizontal partition (203a) that internally projects from one side.
  • One section of the templates (1) provided with the said series of through holes (10, 11 a, 11 b, 12) is engaged and fixed against the section of box-shaped extruded section (201).
  • the template (1) is fixed to the spacer (200) by means of self-threading screws (37) inserted through the two parallel holes (11 a, 11 b) of the template (1) and engaged against the cores (202) of the spacer(200).
  • the hole (10) of the template (1) is used to fix the metal sections (3) designed to form the secondary framework (02).
  • the self-threading screw used for fixing is first inserted into the suitable hole (10) on the template (1) and then engaged against the central core (203) of the metal section (201) of the spacer (200).
  • each telescopic spacer (2) is composed of a plate (20) fixed to the wall, a box-shaped extruded section (21) with basically rectangular cross-section designed to be perpendicularly fixed against the plate (20), and a coupling (22) designed to be exactly inserted in external position on the metal extruded section (21), with the possibility of sliding, and then permanently blocked with respect to the metal extruded section (21) once the desired projected position is reached.
  • the bearing plate (20I is provided with an opposite pair of lateral slots (20a) used to fix the plate (20) against the masonry wall.
  • the plate (20) is also provided with two holes (20b) in slightly internal position with respect to one of the horizontal borders of the plate (20).
  • the holes (20b) are drilled on the vertical symmetrical axis of the plate (20) and are used to insert self-threading screws engaged in corresponding cores (23a) in internal position on the upper and lower walls of the metal extruded section (21), under central rectilinear grooves (23) that are longitudinally present on the same walls.
  • Two additional rectilinear grooves are present in opposite position on the sides of the metal extruded section (21), halfway the height of the metal extruded section (21).
  • Each groove has an irregular shape, being composed of an upper part (24) with basically the same profile has the lower and upper grooves (23) and a lower part (24a) with higher height and lower depth.
  • the metal extruded section (21) has a second rectilinear groove (25) in lateral position, with depth equal to half of the width and located above the central grooves (24).
  • the metal extruded section (21) contains an horizontal partition (26) under the two central grooves (24), from which a rounded longitudinal profile (27a) projects in lower position, defining a basically circular conduit (28) in cooperation with a second rounded longitudinal profile (27b) in opposite position above the lower core (23a).
  • the circular conduit (28) is designed to house a special screw (29) that engages with a nut (30) permanently engaged in the intermediate section of the conduit (28) through a suitable window (31) on the side of the metal extruded section (21).
  • the length of the screw (29), which is frontally provided with a thin cylindrical stem (29a) with threaded front end (29b), is such that the screw (29) considerably exceeds the front of the extruded metal section (21), as shown in figure 7A, although it is engaged in the nut (30).
  • the threaded end (29b) is frontally provided with a diameter notch (29c) for the point of a screwdriver used to rotate the entire screw (29) with respect to the nut (30).
  • the coupling (22) is prismatically coupled with the metal extruded section (21), with the possibility of sliding forward and backwards.
  • the extruded section (21) and the coupling (22) are mutually matched because the coupling (22) is provided with internal profiles able to match the grooves (23, 24, 25) on the four sides of the extruded section (21).
  • the lower and upper sides of the coupling (22) are internally provided with central rectilinear cores (33) designed to penetrate and slide in the grooves (23) in external position on the upper and lower sides of the extruded section (21).
  • the sides of the coupling (22) are provided with two rectilinear ribs (34a) in perfectly specular position, designed to penetrate and slide in the lower parts (24a) of the grooves on the sides of the extruded section (21); likewise, the rectilinear cores (34) slightly above the ribs (34a) are designed to penetrate and slide in the upper parts (24) of the grooves on the sides of the extruded section (21).
  • the function of the rectilinear ribs (34) on the internal sides of the coupling (22) is also to provide threaded holes (36) through the sides of the coupling (22).
  • a horizontal partition (35a) ending with a core (35) is positioned above the lateral cores (34) of the coupling (22) in internal position on one of the sides of the coupling (22), designed to penetrate and slide in the deeper groove (25) on one of the sides of the extruded section (21).
  • the threaded holes (36a) on the sides of the coupling (22) are designed to receive corresponding pins (36) designed to interfere against the sides of the extruded section (21) to prevent the mutual sliding of the two elements (21, 22) as soon as the desired total length of the spacer (2) is achieved, as illustrated hereinafter.
  • the front end of the spacer (2) is designed to be engaged and fixed against the back side of a template (1); in particular, the mutual fixing between the two modules (1, 2) is obtained by means of the two self-threading screws (37) inserted from the template (1) into the two parallel holes (11a, 11b) in intermediate position in the series of holes with cross-configuration that are regularly spaced on each template (1).
  • the screws (37) engage against the cores (34) on the sides of the coupling (22).
  • the special deep-drawing (that is to say thickening) executed on the holes (11 a, 11 b) of the template (1) used to fix the sliding coupling (22) permits a fulcrum function in support points; this allows to mount the template (1) according to a perfectly rectilinear configuration including when it is positioned in a direction not exactly parallel to the bearing wall.
  • the spacer (2) can be adjusted with a screwdriver, from the external side of the template (1), on the notch (29c) on the front end of the cylindrical stem (29a) of the screw (29).
  • the cylindrical stem (29b) of the screw (29) is preferably provided with a small groove along the circumference near the external end, designed to receive an elastic ring (Seeger type) (not shown in the figures) mounted as soon as the stem (29b) comes out from the template (1) through the hole (12).
  • an elastic ring Seeger type
  • the ring is designed to interfere against the external side of the template (1) when the screw (29) is rotated to reduce the length of the spacer (2); in fact, the interference between the ring and the external side of the template (1) causes the template (1) to move backwards, together with the coupling (22) joined to it, when the screw (29) is moved backwards.
  • the first operation consists in tightening the transversal pins (36) into the holes (36a) on the sides of the coupling (22), until the point interferes with the sides of the extruded section (21) to prevent free sliding between the two components (21, 22).
  • the second operation consists in tightening a safety nut (38) on the threaded end (29b) of the stem (29a) of the screw (29) exceeding on the template (1), until the nut (38) strictly interferes against the external side of the template (1) by means of the elastic ring.
  • the nut (38) can ensure stable and permanent connection between the spacer (2) and the template (1).
  • Each template (1) is designed to be associated with a vertical series of spacers (2); in particular, the number of spacers (2) associated with each template (1) depends on the number of series of holes with cross-configuration on the template (1).
  • the adjustable spacer (2) shown in figures 7 and 8 is only used in the two upper and lower ending position in the same vertical series of spacers; the intermediate positions are occupied by the "idle" telescopic spacer (2000) that, although it has the same structure as the adjustable spacer (2), differs from it in that it is not provided with the fine adjustment screw (29).
  • the intermediate telescopic spacers (2000) need to be block in place by means of the lateral pins (36).
  • the sections (3) used to form the secondary framework that supports the cover panels (4) must be engaged and screwed against the templates (1).
  • each panel (49), with preferably rectangular shape, is provided with a longitudinal groove (4a) milled in the centre of the lower horizontal border; the back of the upper horizontal border is provided with a series of elastic squares (4b) with a flexible shaped tab (4c) with basically horizontal direction designed to project on the back of the panel (4).
  • each section (3) has a basically "U-shaped" cross-section and is provided with a regularly spaced series of slots (3b) with horizontal axis on the rear edge (3a).
  • the distance between the slots (3c) determines the distance between each parallel template (1) of the primary framework (O1), since the fixing of a section (3) against the parallel series of templates (1) requires the perfect alignment between the slots (3b) on the section (3) and the holes (10) that occupy the upper position in the series of holes with cross-configuration on the templates (1).
  • final fixing can be obtained by means of self-threading screws inserted into one of the slots (3b) of each section (3), into the upper hole (10) of one of the series of holes with cross-configuration on the template (1) and finally engaged in the spacer (2) matched with the template (1).
  • the point of the screw is engaged with the back of the template (1) in the core (35) basically positioned in the centre of the coupling (22), being supported by the horizontal partition (35a) that projects from one of the internal sides of the coupling (22).
  • each section (3) has a special cross-section in order to favour fast and permanent matching with the cover panel (4).
  • the upper side of the section (3) is provided with a second, lower edge (3c) in slightly forward parallel position with respect to the rear edge (3a); the lower side of the section (3) is provided with two longitudinal ribs (3d, 3e) with vertical axis, in intermediate position between the two edges (3a, 3c), the front rib (3d) having a lower height and the rear rib (3e) having a higher height and ending with enlarged rounded head, with mushroom-shaped configuration.
  • the construction of the secondary framework (02) also requires the use of the end modules (5, 6) basically consisting in two L-shaped metal sections mounted in opposite position; the two modules (5, 6) are respectively shown in figures 13/14 and 15/16.
  • the lower end module (5) is fixed to the primary framework (O1) by means of screws that are inserted into suitable slots (5b) on the rear edge (5a) and engaged against the templates (1) of the primary framework (O1).
  • Both end modules (5, 6) have a special cross-section provided with a lower front edge (5c, 6c) in parallel position to the read edge (5a, 6a).
  • the cover panel (4) is placed above the section (3) in such a way the longitudinal groove (4a) on the horizontal lower border of the cover (4) is exactly matched with the front edge (3c) above the section (3), as shown in figure 5.
  • the panel matched with the end module (5) snaps-in with the lower side of the intermediate section (3) immediately above, as illustrated before.
  • a special section (7) with basically S-shaped cross-section, being formed of two vertical wings (7a, 7b) joined by an outward ascending intermediate section (7c) so that the lower wing (7a) occupies a more internal position with the upper wing (7b), must be mounted on the top of the primary framework (O1), as shown in figures 19A and 19B.
  • the lower wing (7a) of this section is designed to touch the templates (1) of the primary framework (O1) and be fixed to the templates (1) by means of ordinary self-threading screws that, after going through the slots with horizontal axis (7d) that are suitably provided on the lower wing (7a), are engaged on the templates (a) by means of the holes (10).
  • the upper wing (7b) in more advanced position of the section (7) is placed at a certain distance from the series of templates (1), forming a sort of longitudinal pocket (T).
  • the upper panel (40) is characterised by the fact that it is provided with a central groove (40a) on each longitudinal borders and by the fact that it is not provided with elastic brackets (4b).
  • the mounting of the upper panel (40) is obtained by matching the lower longitudinal groove (40a) with the external edge (3c) of the intermediate section (3) on top and then rotating it inwards to achieve a perfectly vertical position.
  • the equipment of the invention is characterised by fast and simple dismounting, which is executed in reverse order with respect to mounting.
  • Each cover panel (4) provided with fixing squares (4b) can be removed after removing the snap-in connection between the elastic squares 84b) and the ribs (3e) in lower position on each intermediate section (3) by exerting an energetic traction with a suitable suction cup.
  • the arrangement of the primary framework (O1) and the secondary framework (02) can be inverted, that is to say with spacing templates (1) in horizontal direction and sections (3) in vertical direction.
  • the secondary framework (02) can be arranged in oblique direction with respect to the primary framework (O1), according to non-perpendicular directions.
  • the 45° arrangement of the sections (3) with respect to the templates (1) allows to mount modular coatings with "opus reticulatum" layout, with a peculiar aesthetical result that can be hardly obtained with traditional fixing methods, as shown in figure 20.
  • cover panels (4000) with curved profile - as shown in figures 21 and 21A - can be used and coupled to the secondary framework (02) as illustrated above, due to the presence of suitable grooved longitudinal edges and snap-in fixing squares.
  • the templates (1) of the primary framework (O1) must be maintained at a different distance from the masonry wall, while all the sections (3, 5, 6, 7) of the secondary framework (02) must have a flexible structure in order to withstand the radius of curvature imposed by the different distance of the templates (1) from the masonry wall.
  • the front of the sections (3) of the secondary framework (02) can also be provided with a sort of longitudinal grooved bordered by a parallel pair of horizontal lips (30) to receive the rear border of object-holding shelves (M) in projected position on the front of the secondary framework (02), as shown in figures 22 and 23.
  • the high load-bearing capacity of the shelves is guaranteed by the presence of spacers for ideal load transfer to the wall.
  • the shelves (M) would be projected on the front of the continuous vertical surface obtained with the cover panels (4).

  • spacing uprights made of insulating material can be provided in replacement of metal couplings.
  • partition walls for modular coating can be provided on both sides (as shown in figure 24).
  • Figures 25 and 25A show two pieces of the equipment of the invention, without cover panels (4), mounted on two adjacent masonry walls in corner configuration, but not perfectly perpendicular.
  • the figures show that a suitable adjustment of the telescopic spacers (2) ensures the perfect perpendicular arrangement of the two metal bearing structures for the equipped walls, after the application of cover panels (4).
  • Figures 26 and 26A refers to a possible implementation of the equipment of the invention, in which the two frameworks (01, 02) originate a regular series of boxes (C) in chess-board configuration, being perfectly aligned in horizontal rows and vertical columns.
  • the equipment also includes two additional modules, the first module being a simple cover panel (8) with such a shape and surface that it can completely hide one of the boxes (C) defined by the frameworks (01, 02).
  • the second additional module is a box-shaped hollow element (9) shaped as a parallelepiped, with a front opening (9a) defined by a perimeter frame (9b) that projects externally.
  • Each module (9) is exactly contained in horizontal position in one of the boxes (C), in such a way that the front opening (9a) is flush with the vertical surface of the box (C) and the box-shaped body projects on the back of the primary framework (O1).
  • perimeter frame (9b) completely hides the parts of the frameworks (01, 02) that border the box (C).
  • each box-shaped element becomes a compartment of the equipped wall and can be used to contain objects.
  • each panel and each box-shaped element are provided with lower longitudinal grooves (8a, 9c) able to cooperate with edges (5c, 3c) respectively located on the upper side of the lower end module (5) and of the intermediate sections (3) and upper elastic squares (8b, 9d) mounted in internal position on the upper longitudinal borders, being designed to cooperate with the two longitudinal ribs (3d, 3e) under each intermediate section (3).
  • the top panels or the top box-shaped elements are provided with a second longitudinal groove also on the upper borders; the said upper groove allows them to cooperate with the upper end module (6) after mounting the S-shaped section (7).
  • the spacers (2) used to support the templates (1) of the primary framework (O1) on the front of the masonry wall must have a length compatible with the depth of the box-shaped elements (9) contained in the boxes (C).
  • Another possible embodiment of the present invention is related to the possibility of anchoring the modular structure of the invention to simple vertical panels, rather than to a bearing masonry wall.
  • the equipment of the invention can be used with a horizontal arrangement, rather than vertical, to create accessible false ceilings or raised floors.
