Definitions

  • the present invention provides a ceiling hanger for suspending false ceilings to a ceiling wall.
  • the ceiling hanger usually has a rod and a connecting end.
  • the rod is generally flat, and it is intended to be fixed in the ceiling wall, for example nailed to the beams, while the connecting end is connected to a rail, or U-shaped, still called fur.
  • lines of lines are made in the ceiling wall so as to bring their connecting end in the same horizontal plane.
  • the U-shaped profile it has two wings extended facing one another, which wings have a wing edge ending with a free edge folded inwardly of the space between the two wings so to form a rim.
  • the wing edges are bent toward each other, remaining spaced from one another and defining an opening, so that the flanges extend in opposite directions. the other.
  • the connecting end of the aligned lines has two lateral bearing surfaces in return with respect to the rod.
  • the support surfaces of the lines are oriented towards the ceiling wall while the U-shaped sections are engaged on the connecting ends, their opening towards the ceiling wall as well, and their wing edges curved respectively in support on the lateral bearing surfaces in return.
  • a plurality of U-shaped sections substantially parallel to each other, is then hooked to the ceiling wall through a plurality of line alignment.
  • the U-shaped profiles are also adjusted in the same plane thanks to the positioning of the connection ends.
  • the lines to which the U-profiles are hung have a tensile strength limited to the weight of the false ceiling and assigned a multiplicative safety coefficient. It is rather the connection between the connecting end and the U-shaped section is vulnerable and in certain circumstances, there is a separation of the profile and the hanger, especially when the load of the false ceiling is important. In addition, when the profile U-shaped is poorly fitted on the connecting end, the weight of the false ceiling tends to cause the deformation and then the spacing of curved wing edges which then escape the bearing staves back.
  • a problem that arises and that aims to solve the present invention is to provide a hanger that allows better attachment of the U-shaped section at its connecting end.
  • the present invention provides a ceiling hanger for hanging a U-profile to a ceiling wall for suspending a false ceiling.
  • Said U-shaped section has two facing wings and an interior space delimited by said two wings, said wings respectively having a border terminated by a free edge, said free edge being folded towards said interior space to form a rim and said edges are curved l towards each other, while said flanges extend opposite each other.
  • Said hanger meanwhile, has a rod intended to be fixed in said ceiling wall and a connecting end adapted to engage in said interior space of said U-shaped section, said connecting end having two lateral bearing surfaces in return relative to said rod and opposed to each other, the lateral bearing surfaces being intended to receive respectively bearing said curved edges of said U-shaped section.
  • said lateral bearing surfaces present respectively a lug in return, the lugs in return of said lateral bearing surfaces being intended to respectively engage in said opposite flanges to prohibit the relative movement of said U-shaped section and said connecting end.
  • said connecting end has deformable tabs intended to extend respectively opposite said lateral bearing surfaces, said deformable tongues being deformable between a position spaced apart from said lateral bearing surfaces and a position close to said lateral bearing surfaces so as to bear against the curved edges towards each other so as to take said curved edges between said lateral bearing surfaces and the deformable tabs to thereby prohibit the relative movement of said U-shaped section and said connecting end.
  • a feature of the invention lies in the implementation of the deformable tongues.
  • Another advantageous feature of the invention lies in the implementation of lugs which protrude from the bearing surfaces and in the mode of cooperation of these lugs with the edges of the curved edges.
  • the edges of the curved edges form opposite bearing shoulders against which the lugs are likely to come into abutment laterally, which blocks in translation the movement of curved edges in a direction parallel to the bearing surfaces.
  • the lateral spacing of the curved edges, one of the other is prohibited regardless of the load supported by the U-shaped section.
  • the U-shaped section is secured.
  • the deformable tongues are adapted to be deformed by force, and in particular to be pivoted to come in a close position and facing the lateral bearing surfaces so as to come to rest against the curved edges one towards the other, on the side of their face opposite to the interior space.
  • the curved edges are engaged between the lateral bearing surfaces and the deformable, deformed tongues.
  • the curved edges are then trapped in the connecting end, because their vertical movement is then prohibited, and the rim can not be engaged over the lug, as will be explained in detail below. Therefore, the two edges bent towards each other are trapped lateral support surfaces and the U-profile is then locked on the connecting end.
  • said lateral bearing surfaces extend from between a proximal portion and a distal portion, and said lug is advantageously located in the distal portion, so that during assembly and engagement of the connecting end in the inner space of the U-shaped profile, the lugs are respectively fitted behind the edges of curved edges, while precisely, these flanges are extended in the proximal portion of the spans of lateral support.
  • the method of cooperation of the lugs and flanges will be explained in more detail in the detailed description.
  • said opposite lateral bearing surfaces define an average line
  • said deformable tongues are adapted to be pivotally driven about an axis substantially parallel to said mean line defined by said staves. 'support.
  • said deformable tongues can be easily folded against the curved edges and come to apply in a substantially perpendicular direction, which allows a better locking.
  • said tongues respectively have a pivoting zone which extends opposite said lateral bearing surfaces and a free end opposite to said pivoting zone, thus when the tongues are folded against the curved edges, the reaction force of the curved edges against the opposite free ends, has a direction substantially intersecting the pivot area which further improves the security lock.
  • said tongue free end has an oblique lateral portion located at the right of said lug.
  • said tabs are advantageously inclined, opposite said rod, forming an acute angle with said middle plane, when said tab extends in said spaced position.
  • the deformation of the deformable tongues around their pivoting area is of a small amplitude, less than 90 °, which avoids the local embrittlement of the material, preferably galvanized steel, and thus to maintain its integrity.
  • the tongues are inclined at an angle close to 45 ° with said average plane.
  • said rod has at least one oblong hole extending towards said connecting end, making it easier to preset the vertical position of the hanger.
  • said rod advantageously has two opposite lateral edges curved in opposite directions from each other.
  • the ceiling hanger is formed of a single piece obtained by cutting stamping, for example in a galvanized steel plate.
  • the Figure 1 illustrates a ceiling hanger 10 having a longitudinal rod 12 terminated by a connecting end 14, also called head.
  • the ceiling hanger 10 is made of a single piece of galvanized steel for example. It is for example obtained by cutting stamping a galvanized steel plate.
  • the hanger 10 is intended for to be secured to elements of a not shown ceiling wall, via the rod 12 adjusted substantially vertically.
  • the rod 12 has oblong holes 14 and circular holes 16 made alternately in the longitudinal direction of said rod 12, and through which screws can be threaded.
  • the oblong holes 14 allow a first adjustment of the hanger 10 for a vertical adjustment, while the circular holes 16 allow a permanent locking.
  • the connecting end 14 defines an average plane P and has two opposite lateral edges 18, 20.
  • opposite lateral edges 18, 20 are made notches for forming two opposite bearing surfaces 22, 24 which extend in return relative to the rod 12 and opposite each other by defining a single average line D substantially perpendicular to the rod 12 and contained in the average plane P.
  • the opposite bearing surfaces 22, 24, are oriented towards the rod 12 and extend substantially horizontally when the rod 12 of the hanger 10 is fixed substantially vertically in the ceiling wall.
  • two deformable tongues 23, 25 are formed which respectively extend opposite the support bearing surfaces 22, 24 and which are here in a position separated from their respective bearing surfaces . Their function will be explained in more detail below.
  • This lateral bearing surface 22 has a proximal portion 26 and an opposite distal portion 28, and a return lug 30 located in the distal portion 28. The lug then protrudes from the bearing surface 22.
  • the U-shaped section 32 has a bottom wall 34 and two facing wings 36, 38, which respectively have an edge 40, 42.
  • the two edges 40, 42 are bent towards each other by defining substantially the same plane.
  • the edges 40, 42 each have a folded free edge 44, 46 in the same direction as the corresponding curved edge forming a rim and so as to form two opposite shoulders 48, 50 whose height corresponds substantially to thickness of the edge of the edges 40, 42.
  • the U-shaped section 32 delimits an interior space 52 open between the two curved edges 40, 42.
  • the connecting end 14 of the hanger 10 engaged inside the inner space 52, so that the average plane P of the connecting end 14 is oriented substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the U-shaped section 32.
  • the curved edges 40, 42 are respectively engaged through the notches of the opposite side edges 18, 20 of the connecting end 14 and precisely, bearing against the opposite bearing surfaces 22, 24.
  • the lugs 30 are engaged behind the folded free edges 44, 46, and thus respectively facing, laterally, the two opposite shoulders 48, 50.
  • the folded free edges 44, 46 extend respectively in the proximal portion. 26 of the lateral bearing surfaces 22, 24.
  • This deformable tongue 23 has a longitudinal pivoting zone 54 which extends along an axis A substantially parallel to the average line D.
  • the deformable tongue 23 extends opposite the corresponding bearing surface 22 and is here inclined at an angle of about 45 ° to the front of the drawing relative to the average plane P from the longitudinal pivoting zone 54. It further has a free end 56, a proximal edge 58 and a distal edge 60 having an oblique cut 62 substantially in line with the lug 30. The free end 56 is then separated from the corresponding bearing surface 22.
  • the deformable tongues 23, 25 are then likely to be forced down by means of a forceps for example, against its edges 40, 42, resting on their outer face, as shown in FIG. Figure 4B .
  • the deformation of the tongues 23, 25 in contrast to the first deformation, to carry them in a plane close to the average plane P, or coincides with this mean plane, while their free ends bear against the edges 40, 42, causes a deformation of the metal at the longitudinal pivoting zone 54 which causes a slight necking. However, the metal retains its integrity, and the tongues 23, 25 remain completely integral with the connecting end 14.
  • second deformable tongues 23 ', 25' of another type are formed in a second connecting end 14 '.
  • These second deformable tongues 23 ', 25' are no longer cut directly opposite second support bearing surfaces 22 ', 24', but in an upper part of opposite side edges 18 ', 20', and they are capable of being folded at 180 ° to be brought into a position close to the second supporting lands 22 ', 24'.
