Definitions

  • a modular plate for forming a horizontal partition for dividing the cavity between a load bearing sill and a raised floor
  • the present invention relates to a modular plate for forming a horizontal partition able to divide the cavity between a load-bearing sill and a raised floor underneath which conditioned air is conveyed.
  • the systems of this type have a drawback in that the conditioned air inevitably introduces into the room a considerable quantity of dust which has accumulated on the underlying concrete sill.
  • the hygiene-related problems may be accentuated owing to the presence of animal remains on the sill.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a modular plate for forming a dividing partition which may be installed rapidly and precisely at an intermediate height between the load-bearing sill and the panels of a raised floor; the partition thus divides the cavity between the sill and the raised floor into two half-spaces, i.e. bottom half-space and top half-space, where only the top half-space serves as a plenum for conveying the air into one or more rooms to be conditioned.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide modular plates such as to ensure a good air-tight seal between the half-spaces defined above and below the partition, in order to optimise the efficiency of the air heating/conditioning system.
  • Figure 1 is an exploded side view of a raised floor associated with, a plate according to the present invention
  • Figure 2 is a top plan view of a dividing partition composed of plates according to the invention.
  • Figures 3 and 4 are a perspective view and a top plan view of a first type of plate according to the invention.
  • Figures 5 and 6 are a perspective view and top plan view of a second type of a plate according to the invention.
  • Figures 7 and 8 are a perspective view and a top plan view of a third type of plate according to the invention.
  • Figures 9 and 10 are a perspective view and a top plan view of a fourth type of plate according to the invention.
  • Figures 11 and 12 are a perspective view and a top plan view of a fifth type of plate according to the invention.
  • the modular panels 10 which form a raised floor are supported by column-type supporting devices 20 each comprising a bottom column 21 with a base 22 which rests on a load-bearing concrete sill S and a horizontal head piece 23 with a tubular stem 24 which engages on the top end of the column 21.
  • the latter has a threaded outer surface on which a nut 25 engages, said nut allowing heightwise adjustment of the head piece 23 and therefore the panelled floor 10.
  • the same supporting devices 20 for the raised floor also support a plurality of adjacent modular plates 30a-30e, preferably made of sheet metal, which in the installed condition together define a horizontal dividing partition able to divide the cavity between the sill S and the raised floor 10 into two half-spaces: a bottom half-space B, which is delimited at the bottom by the sill S, and a top half-space A, which is delimited at the top by the floor 10. Only the top half-space A serves as a plenum for conveying the air into one or more rooms to be conditioned.
  • the air which is introduced into the room to be conditioned does not convey with it the dust present on the sill and any bad-smelling gaseous substances stagnating in the bottom half-space B, both because the top half-space is sealed with respect to the bottom half-space and because it is subject to an overpressure.
  • the plates 30a-30e advantageously have a quadrilateral (square or rectangular) modular format corresponding to that of the panels 10 of the floor.
  • three different types of modular plates 30a, 30b, 30c are envisaged, these plates being chosen depending on the position (central, perimetral and angular, respectively) in which each plate must be placed with respect to the layout of the room. If it is required to create a communicating channel between two adjacent rooms or form a plenum with a longitudinal extension and blind closure at the end thereof, as for example in the case of a corridor, it is possible to use plates denoted by 30d and 3Oe in Figures 9, 10 and 11, 12.
  • the modular plates 30a each have a horizontal central main portion 31, which is substantially flat, and four horizontal corner portions 32 which are situated in raised positions with respect to the flat portion 31 and joined to the latter by inclined or vertical connecting portions 33.
  • a certain degree of inclination is to be preferred because it allows stacking of the plates in an orderly and compact manner during transportation and storage.
  • Each raised corner portion 32 is rested on the head piece 23 of a column-type supporting device 20 and fixed to the latter by means of a self-tapping screw V.
  • the raised corner portions 32 have the form of isosceles trapezia, as do also the connecting portions 33, and each have an angular extension of about 90° so that four plates resting on the same supporting device surround it completely, preventing the infiltration of air from the top half-space into the bottom half-space.
  • the plate 30a shown in Figures 3 and 4 is a central plate and is suitable for being arranged in a non-perimetral position of the room where the floor is situated. Free spaces are left between the four raised corner portions 32 so as to allow the air to flow freely into the top half-space A above the plates 30.
  • Figures 5 and 6 show a perimetral plate 30b to be positioned along an edge of the room where the floor is installed.
  • the sealing contact against a perimetral panel 10 of the raised floor ( Figure 2) is ensured by a raised edge portion 39 in the form of a horizontal tongue which joins together two consecutive raised corner portions 32 and by an inclined connecting wall 40 which joins the central portion 31 to the raised edge portion 39 and to the raised corner portions 32 situated at the opposite ends of the portion 39.
  • Figures 7 and 8 show a corner plate 30c suitable for positioning in a corner of the room.
  • the sealing contact against the perimetral panels of the raised floor is ensured, on two consecutive sides of the plate, by two raised edge portions 39 which connect together three raised corner portions 32 and by two inclined connecting walls 40 which are joined to the central horizontal portion 31.
  • Figures 9, 10 and 11, 12 show another two types of plate 30d, 30e having, respectively, two and three raised edge tongues 39 and two and three connecting walls which are joined to the central portion 31 so as to ensure the sealing contact against the perimetral panels.
  • the use of the plates 30d, 30e is envisaged for forming connection channels between two separate plenums or for the air-conditioning of corridors.
  • a straight sealing strip arranged bridging two head pieces of two consecutive column-type supports is designated by 43.
  • the strips 43 are thin parts made of plastic, for example PVC, having a cross-section in the form of an overturned V, and with a central rib 44 and two bottom flanges 45 (only one of which is shown).
  • the rib 44 remains gripped between the facing edges of two adjacent panels 10, while the bottom flanges rest against the bottom edge surfaces of these panels.
  • the strips 43 thus have dimensions and are formed such that the air pressure present in the plenum A under operating conditions pushes the thin bottom flanges 45 against the panels 10.
  • the strips 43 prevent dust or dirt falling from the treading surface of the panelled floor into the underlying plenum A.
  • a preferred method for laying the plates 30 envisages that the column-type supporting devices 20 are positioned on the load-bearing sill S in a quadrilateral mesh pattern depending on the layout of the room and the dimensions of the plates 30 and the panels 10 of the raised floor.
  • a corner plate 30c is first laid in one of the corners, followed by laying of the perimetral plates 30b and then the central plates 30a.
  • the plates 30a-30c are fixed to the head pieces 23 of the supporting devices by screwing the screws V into holes 41 formed in the raised corner portions 32 and the adjacent edges of the flat portions 31 of the adjacent plates are sealed using aluminium self-adhesive tape (not shown).
  • the invention is not to be regarded as limited to its embodiments described and illustrated here purely by way of example.
  • the plates may be modified with regard to the form, dimensions, constructional details and materials used.
  • the corner portions 32 could have the form of a circular segment and the connecting portions 33 the form of frustoconical segments.
