Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a spacing element for metal surfacings and a method for installing metal surfacings using said spacing element.
  • metal sheeting for the surfacing of the walls of buildings for aesthetic, decorative purposes, for controlling solar radiation and/or to prevent the intrusion of animals is becoming more and more widespread in modern architecture.
  • a known method is to arrange, at calculated intervals, spacing elements fixed between the wall of the building and the sheet metal surfacing.
  • the spacing elements currently on the market are made up of a fixing pin, allowing a certain amount of free play to compensate for the minimal vertical movements of the sheeting caused by mechanical forces and thermal expansion, attached to a stirrup-shaped fastening element, fixed by means of a double plug to the walls of the building.
  • Said devices present a number of drawbacks, which include the so-called "punch effect", which is created when, as a result of wind pressure, the metal sheeting is forced towards the wall of the building and is pressed against the fixed spacing elements.
  • the surface of the sheeting loses its smooth evenness and presents an inaesthetic appearance similar to that of a canvas resting on a plurality of pointed objects.
  • the application of the currently used spacing elements requires a high degree of precision to prevent initial or subsequent defects in the sheeting being caused by thermal fluctuations.
  • spacing elements generally involve high production costs because of their jointed structure made up of precision elements (fixing pins, stirrup-shaped fastenings, plugs) which are designed from case to case so as to adapt the spacing elements to the particular needs of the project in hand.
  • the aim of the present invention here is to eliminate the difficulties complained of above in respect of the known types of spacing elements for metal sheeting by means of a device that offers the advantage of eliminating the inaesthetic effects, which, up to today, are created by a displacement of the sheeting.
  • one of the objects of the present invention is to provide a spacing element for metal sheeting which also simplifies the mounting of the sheeting itself.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a spacing element for metal sheeting which can be produced at competitive costs.
  • a further object of this invention is to provide a method for installing the metal sheets in a shorter time and at competitive costs, while guaranteeing the elimination of the inaesthetic effects previously described.
  • the spacing element for metal sheeting which comprises a central element, at one extremity of which there is a section designed for attachment to the metal sheet and at the other end there is a second section designed for fixing to a supporting structure, characterized in that the central element is made of flexible, elastic material.
  • At least one section of the central part of the spacing element should be curved, preferably in the shape of a semicircle.
  • the method for installing the metal sheets for the coating of walls which comprises the installation of a plurality of upper and lower anchorages; the positioning of at least one spacing element on a supporting structure; to rise the metal sheet; fixing the top of the metal sheet to the plurality of upper anchorages; fixing the bottom of the metal sheet to the plurality of lower anchorages and tightening it in position; fixing the metal sheet to at least one spacing element; and being characterized in that the positioning of at least one spacing element on a supporting structure comprises the positioning of an elastic, spacing element.
  • the spacing element (1) for metal sheeting comprises a semi-circular central element (6) at the two ends of which (2) and (3) there is a substantially ring-shaped section for ends of which (2) and (3) there is a substantially ring-shaped section for fastening to the wall (20) and the metal sheet (10) respectively
  • the fastening of the first end (3) to the wall (20) is performed in a known manner by means of screws (4) and the respective plugs, while the fastening of the second end (2) to the metal sheet (10) is performed by means of a small metal fastening device (5), for example a stud or rivet attachment, which enables extremely fast, easy and durable installation.
  • a small metal fastening device (5) for example a stud or rivet attachment
  • the spacing element (1) is fixed to the wall (20) and the metal sheet (10) in such a manner that the convex part of the semi-circular central element (6) is facing downwards.
  • the spacing element (1) does not constitute an obstacle when positioning the metal sheet (10); in effect, when the metal sheet (10) is hoisted into position, it comes into contact with the convex section of the central element (6) of the spacing element (1) or with the stud attachment (5), which facilitates the sliding of the sheet along said element thus enabling it to pass over the spacing element (1) without substantial impediment.
  • the spacing element (1) is made of flexible material enabling it to partially move with the metal sheet (10) when the latter is displaced towards and/or away from the wall (20) or in the event of vertical displacement due to thermal expansion and/or contraction.
  • the aforesaid characteristic completely eliminates the undesirable inaesthetic effects that are caused by the known types of spacing elements, which occur when the sheeting is displaced towards the wall (the punched effect) and in the event of thermal expansion and/or contraction of the metal sheet (10) resulting from an imperfect fitting of same.
  • the spacing element acts upon a relatively larger area of the surface of the metal sheet (10) and is no longer applied to small point-like surfaces of same.
  • the installation of the spacing element (1) is simplified in that minimal imprecisions in the positioning are absorbed by the flexible characteristic of the spacing element (1) itself.
  • the first end (3) is additionally shaped to enable its insertion into a channelled attchment element (7) which is generally used when the mounting of the metal sheet (10) is effected at a distance from the wall (20) which no longer allows the direct attachment of the spacing element (1) to the wall itself.
  • the structural simplicity of the spacing element (1) according to the invention enables it to be produced at competitive costs, notwithstanding those parts that cannot be mass produced. These parts may, in fact, vary in respect of shape and dimensions according to the particular application.
  • Said spacing elements may be attached to whatever type of fastening attachments used for the sheets (10), i.e. whether screw-type mounting plates or suitable spring-operated elements.
  • the spacing element for metal surfacings according to the invention proves itself fully able to fulfil its purpose as well as achieving the additional intended aims in that, being constructed of elastic material, it is capable of absorbing any displacements of the sheet without said movements giving rise to the undesirable, inaesthetic effects described above.
  • the spacing element according to the invention may be produced at competitive costs and that it also offers advantages in terms of costs by virtue of its easy and rapid installation.
  • the invention conceived in this manner, is susceptible to numerous modifications and variants, all of which being within the concept of the invention.
  • the ends of the central element, used for fixing the spacing element to the wall may be designed in whatever manner that satisfies the requirements of the project on hand.
