Description

La présente invention concerne les techniques de construction de bâtiments et elle a en particulier pour objet un dispositif de montage d'éléments de structure pour maison à ossature en bois.The present invention relates to building construction techniques and particularly relates to a mounting device for structural elements for timber frame house.

Les maisons à ossature bois présentent des éléments de structure, s'utilisant en structures de plancher, de pans de mur et de plafond, qui permettent un montage en kit, par opposition aux logements tridimensionnels préfabriqués.Wood-frame houses have structural elements, which are used as floor, wall and ceiling structures, which allow for kit mounting, as opposed to prefabricated three-dimensional units.

L'assemblage des éléments de structure constituant une maison à ossature bois est traditionnellement effectuée par des professionnels utilisant des moyens de levage motorisés, car elle nécessite sur place un réglage précis de la position des panneaux et une réalisation efficace de l'étanchéité, les maisons de ce type étant généralement soumises à des normes de fabrication exigeantes.The assembly of the structural elements constituting a timber frame house is traditionally carried out by professionals using motorized lifting means, because it requires on site precise adjustment of the position of the panels and effective sealing, the houses of this type being generally subject to demanding manufacturing standards.

Le document FR 2 937 661 divulgue des panneaux servant à la construction d'une maison à ossature bois, qui sont assemblés en usine puis transportés sur le chantier pour y être montés par assemblage entre eux et à un plancher. Pour assurer la liaison d'un panneau avec le plancher, on utilise un dispositif comprenant une traverse et un tasseau coopérant, on fixe la traverse sur le plancher et on fixe le tasseau sous la lisse inférieure du pan de mur de telle sorte que la lisse et le tasseau se retrouvent face à face. L'objectif est de permettre une fixation simplifiée du pan de mur par rapport au plancher, grâce à la formation d'une butée pour la mise en place du panneau par rapport au plancher, le dispositif étant conçu pour assurer l'affleurement du pan de mur avec la structure de plancher et répondre ainsi à des impératifs d'esthétique et d'étanchéité de l'ensemble.The document FR 2,937,661 discloses panels for the construction of a wood frame house, which are assembled at the factory and then transported to the site to be assembled together and to a floor. To ensure the connection of a panel with the floor, using a device comprising a cross and a cooperating cleat, the crossbar is fixed on the floor and the cleat is fixed under the lower rail of the wall panel so that the smooth and the cleat meet face to face. The objective is to allow a simplified fixing of the wall panel with respect to the floor, thanks to the formation of a stop for the establishment of the panel with respect to the floor, the device being designed to ensure the outcrop of the panel. wall with the floor structure and thus meet aesthetic imperatives and tightness of the whole.

Ces panneaux ne sont pas spécialement prévus pour les cas où des particuliers souhaiteraient construire eux-mêmes leur maison en ossature bois, puisque l'assemblage est rendu compliqué par le besoin d'ajustement en position des pans de mur les uns par rapport aux autres, une position correcte de chacun d'eux étant nécessaire pour réaliser correctement l'étanchéité des pans entre eux. En outre, la fiabilité de l'assemblage peut être mauvaise si les vissages des différents éléments ne sont pas effectués avec précision du fait par exemple d'une mauvaise position des éléments à fixer. L'utilisation d'engins de levage motorisés permet d'offrir une mise en place correcte de ces éléments de structure difficilement manipulables, mais ces engins ne sont pas forcément à disposition des particuliers:These panels are not especially intended for cases where individuals would like to build their own wooden frame house, since the assembly is made complicated by the need for adjustment in position of the wall sections relative to each other, a correct position of each of them being necessary to properly seal the sections together. In addition, the reliability of the assembly may be poor if the screwings of the various elements are not carried out accurately because of, for example, a bad position of the elements to be fixed. The use of motorized lifting gear makes it possible to offer correct placement of these structural elements that are difficult to handle, but these machines are not necessarily available to individuals:

La présente invention vise à apporter une solution efficace aux difficultés rencontrées, notamment celles qui viennent d'être soulignées. Elle vise aussi à satisfaire au mieux aux besoins d'une réalisation par des particuliers d'une maison à ossature bois qui puisse être mise en oeuvre, avantageusement sans utilisation d'éléments métalliques rapportés, mais qui conduise à une construction particulièrement résistante, solide et :fiable, afin de permettre la réalisation d'une maison à l'étanchéité parfaite.The present invention aims to provide an effective solution to the difficulties encountered, in particular those which have just been underlined. It also aims to best meet the needs of a realization by individuals of a wood frame house that can be implemented, preferably without the use of reported metal elements, but which lead to a particularly strong, solid and : reliable, to allow the realization of a house with perfect waterproofness.

A cette fin, l'invention propose d'avoir recours à un dispositif de liaison entre éléments de structure qui implique d'utiliser une semelle de positionnement automatique permettant une liaison sur site par simple serrage des éléments de structure entre eux et la semelle dans deux directions perpendiculaires et blocage de l'assemblage dans une disposition relative prédéterminée. On assure ainsi la fiabilité du montage et la résistance de l'ensemble.To this end, the invention proposes to use a connecting device between structural elements which involves using an automatic positioning flange allowing a connection on site by simply clamping the structural elements between them and the sole in two perpendicular directions and blocking the assembly in a predetermined relative arrangement. This ensures the reliability of the assembly and the strength of the assembly.

Plus précisément, l'invention fait intervenir une semelle de positionnement se fixant sur la face supérieure d'un premier élément de structure qui est creusée transversalement à son axe longitudinal d'une zone de réception pour une pièce d'indexage que comporte un deuxième élément de structure venant se rapporter par-dessus ladite semelle. Les deux éléments de structure se trouvent ainsi liés solidairement par l'intermédiaire de la semelle. La semelle de positionnement comporte deux faces opposées d'inclinaison différente. L'une de ces faces présente une inclinaison par rapport à la verticale et facilite le montage de l'un des éléments sur l'autr.e, tandis que la face opposée s'étend verticalement et sert notamment pour le blocage en position des deux éléments de structure.More specifically, the invention involves a positioning flange which is fixed on the upper face of a first structural element which is hollowed transversely to its longitudinal axis by a receiving zone for an indexing part which comprises a second element. structure coming to relate over said sole. The two structural elements are thus linked integrally via the sole. The positioning flange comprises two opposite faces of different inclination. One of these faces has an inclination relative to the vertical and facilitates the mounting of one of the elements on the other, while the opposite face extends vertically and serves in particular for locking in position of the two structural elements.

En outre, l'invention prévoit de compléter ledit deuxième élément de structure par une paroi de butée adaptée à venir au contact d'une face de la semelle lorsque le deuxième élément de structure recouvre ladite semelle, ce de telle manière que ladite paroi de butée assure un blocage de la position du deuxième élément de structure selon la direction transversale tandis que la pièce d'indexage logée dans la zone de réception complémentaire ménagée dans la semelle assure un blocage de la position du deuxième étément de structure selon la direction longitudinale de la semelle. On assure ainsi le verrouillage du montage, par blocage relatif des éléments dans deux directions, respectivement longitudinale et transversale, qui sont généralement perpendiculaires.In addition, the invention provides for supplementing said second structural element with an abutment wall adapted to come into contact with a face of the soleplate when the second structural element covers said soleplate, so that said abutment wall ensures a locking of the position of the second structural element in the transverse direction while the indexing part housed in the complementary receiving zone formed in the sole ensures a blocking of the position of the second structural element in the longitudinal direction of the sole. This ensures the locking of the assembly, by relative blocking of the elements in two directions, respectively longitudinal and transverse, which are generally perpendicular.

D'autres caractéristiques spécifiques à l'invention, venant avantageusement en complément des précédentes, seront précisée plus loin, notamment celles qui conduisent à un mode d'assemblage suivant le.quel tous les organes de montage sont intégrés dans la largeur de l'épaisseur des murs de la maison construite.Other features specific to the invention, advantageously in addition to the previous ones, will be specified later, in particular those which lead to an assembly mode according to which all the assembly members are integrated in the width of the thickness. walls of the house built.

L'invention s'étend aux maisons à ossature en bois, dont les éléments de structure essentiels sont livrés en kit et qui sont aisément montables et démontables sur site, dans la mesure où il s'agit de maisons dans lesquelles l'étanchéité et la fiabilité de construction sont assurées au moyen de dispositifs de liaison spécifiques tels que conçus et mis en oeuvre suivant la présente invention.The invention extends to wood-frame houses, the essential structural elements of which are delivered in kits and which are easily mountable and dismountable on site, insofar as they are houses in which the watertightness and Construction reliability is ensured by means of specific connecting devices as designed and implemented in accordance with the present invention.

Dans des modes de réalisation particulièrement avantageux de telles maisons, les éléments de structure en bois que l'on assemble par l'intermédiaire de semelles de positionnement, également en bois, comprennent essentiellement des éléments de plancher, des éléments formant des pans de mur et des éléments ou modules de plafond. Au sens courant, les éléments de plancher et les modules de plafond se placent horizontalement et les pans de murs se placent verticalement du plancher au plafond.In particularly advantageous embodiments of such houses, the wooden structure elements which are assembled via positioning flanges, also made of wood, essentially comprise floor elements, elements forming wall panels and ceiling elements or modules. In the ordinary sense, the floor elements and the ceiling modules are placed horizontally and the walls are placed vertically from floor to ceiling.

Pour une maison complète, on prévoit avantageusement deux modèles de semelles de liaison, les unes à mettre en oeuvre en intermédiaire entre des éléments ou modules de plancher et des pans de mur, les autres entre les pans de mur et des modules de plafond. Dans des formes de réalisation préférées, tettes qu'elles seront décrites plus loin, on distinguera d'une part le cas de la liaison entre un premier élément constitué par un élément de plancher et un deuxième élément constitué par un pan de mur, et l'on parlera d'empreintes creusées en travers des semelles de positionnement pour recevoir des tenons dont sont pourvues des lisses inférieures des pans de mur en tant que pièces d'indexage, et d'autre part le cas de la liaison entre un premier élément constitué par un pan de mur vertical et un deuxième élément constitué par un module de plafond venant s'appliquer dessus, et l'on parlera plutôt de rainures creusées transversalement dans un bossage longitudinal de la semelle pour recevoir localement une poutrelle faisant saillie de chaque module de plafond.For a complete house, two models of connecting flanges are advantageously provided, some to be used as intermediate between floor elements or modules and wall panels, the others between the wall panels and ceiling modules. In preferred embodiments, which will be described later, the case of the connection between a first element consisting of a floor element and a second element constituted by a wall section will be distinguished on the one hand. one will speak of cavities dug across the positioning flanges to receive studs which are provided with lower rails of the wall sections as indexing pieces, and secondly the case of the connection between a first element constituted by by a vertical wall section and a second element constituted by a ceiling module which is applied to it, and rather it will be spoken of grooves cut transversely in a longitudinal boss of the sole to receive locally a beam projecting from each module of ceiling.

En conformité avec ces figures, l'invention est ici décrite dans le cadre de son application préférée, concernant le montage d'une maison en ossature bois qui est illustrée globalement sur la figure 1, complétée par la figure 2, ainsi que sur les schémas des figures 3 et 4.In accordance with these figures, the invention is here described in the context of its preferred application, relating to the assembly of a house in wood frame which is illustrated globally on the figure 1 , supplemented by figure 2 , as well as the patterns of Figures 3 and 4 .

Cette maison 1 comporte des fondations 2, une structure de plancher 4 rapportée sur ces fondations et des pans de mur 6 fixés sur la structure de plancher, qui s'étendent verticalement les uns à côté des autres pour former les murs de la maison. Elle comporte en outre une structure de plafond 8 qui est rapportée sur la face supérieure des pans de mur, ainsi qu'une charpente 10 qui est montée au-dessus de la structure de plafond. Des panneaux dé revêtement extérieurs 12 forment l'habillage de la maison et il est prévu des panneaux de toit (non représentés ici) pour couvrir la charpente.This house 1 has foundations 2, a floor structure 4 attached to these foundations and wall sections 6 fixed on the floor structure, which extend vertically next to each other to form the walls of the house. It further comprises a ceiling structure 8 which is attached to the upper face of the wall panels, and a frame 10 which is mounted above the ceiling structure. Exterior cladding panels 12 form the cladding of the house and roof panels (not shown here) are provided to cover the framing.

En application de la présente invention la maison décrite est particulièrement facile à monter et la construction en est fiable une fois qu'elle a été montée en -faisant intervenir dans l'assemblage un dispositif de liaison spécifique, utilisé pour le montage de certains de ses éléments de structure entre eux, lequel dispositif comporte notamment des semelles de positionnement automatique disposées d'une part entre la structure de plancher et les pans de mur (visibles sur la figure 2 et sur les figures 7 à 11) et d'autre part entre les pans de mur et la structure de plafond (visibles sur la figure 3 et sur les figures 14 et 15). Le fonctionnement et les avantages des dispositifs de liaison utilisés seront décrits ci-après.In application of the present invention the house described is particularly easy to assemble and the construction is reliable once it has been assembled by intervening in the assembly a specific connection device, used for the assembly of some of its elements of structure between them, which device comprises in particular automatic positioning flanges arranged on the one hand between the floor structure and the wall panels (visible on the figure 2 and on Figures 7 to 11 ) and on the other hand between the wall sections and the ceiling structure (visible on the figure 3 and on Figures 14 and 15 ). The operation and advantages of the connecting devices used will be described below.

Les fondations comportent une chape de béton ou des plots de béton, répartis régulièrement sur les surfaces au sol correspondant à la maison. Des pieds de poteaux 14 sont fixés par vissage sur ces plots de béton. Ils portent à leur extrémité libre un élément de support en forme de U (figure 11) et ils sont disposés en deux séries de poteaux alignés de manière à recevoir dans les éléments de support correspondants respectivement deux longrines 16 parallèles, qui sont fixées par vissage dans les pieds de support. Par la suite, on parlera de direction longitudinale pour la direction parallèle à l'axe principal des longrines.The foundations include a concrete screed or concrete pads, regularly distributed on the floor surfaces corresponding to the house. Posts of posts 14 are fixed by screwing on these concrete pads. They carry at their free end a U-shaped support element ( figure 11 ) and they are arranged in two series of posts aligned so as to receive in the corresponding support elements respectively two parallel longitudinal members 16, which are fixed by screwing in the support legs. Subsequently, we will speak of longitudinal direction for the direction parallel to the main axis of the longitudinal members.

Les pieds sont réglables en hauteur pour permettre le réglage de niveau des longrines et pour s'assurer que les fondations permettent un montage à plat du plancher par la suite. Chaque longrine comporte une muraillère 18 rapportée sur sa face qui se trouve en regard de l'autre longrine, et cette muraillère présente des encoches de réception 20 adaptés à recevoir des éléments de la structure de plancher (voir figure 6).The feet are adjustable in height to allow leveling of the sills and to ensure that the foundations allow a flat mounting of the floor thereafter. Each sill has a wall 18 attached to its face which is opposite the other sill, and this wall has receiving notches 20 adapted to receive elements of the floor structure (see figure 6 ).

La structure de plancher est illustrée par les figures 5 et 6. Elle comporte des modules de plancher 22 adaptés à s'étendre transversalement entre les longrines et à porter les dalles de plancher. Par la suite, on parlera de direction transversale pour la direction parallèle à l'axe principal des modules de plancher. Il s'agit ici de la direction perpendiculaire à la direction dite longitudinale.The floor structure is illustrated by the Figures 5 and 6 . It comprises floor modules 22 adapted to extend transversely between the stringers and to carry the floor slabs. Subsequently, we will speak of transverse direction for the direction parallel to the main axis of the floor modules. This is the direction perpendicular to the so-called longitudinal direction.

Les modules de plancher présentent chacun une forme de caisson dont les parois latérales présentent la forme de poutrelles 24 à profil en I (lette i majuscule). Le fond du caisson vient en appui contre la face supérieure du talon 26 des poutrelles, de telle sorte que les talons de poutrelle sont en saillie sous le module. Les caissons sont ouverts sur le dessus. Ils présentent là uniquement quelques traverses de raidissement 28. Un remplissage de matériau isolant 30, par exemple en laine minérale, est disposé dans le caisson.The floor modules each have a box shape whose side walls have the form of beams 24 to I-profile (lette i uppercase). The bottom of the box bears against the upper face of the heel 26 of the beams, so that the beam heels are projecting under the module. The boxes are open on the top. They present there only a few stiffening crosspieces 28. A filling of insulating material 30, for example mineral wool, is disposed in the box.

La partie de chacune des poutrelles qui est en saillie sous le module se loge dans une des encoches de la muraillère, de tette sorte que le module de plancher se retrouve bloqué dans la direction longitudinale lors de la mise en position des modules de plancher. Chacun de ces modules étant disposé entre les deux longrines, de l'une à l'autre, on remarque qu'ils sont également bloqués dans la direction transversale. Les modules de plancher sont alors en place, et des trous pré-percés permettent de les fixer par vissage dans la murailière solidaire de la longrine.The portion of each of the beams projecting beneath the module is housed in one of the notches of the wall, so that the floor module is locked in the longitudinal direction when the floor modules are placed in position. Each of these modules being arranged between the two longitudinal members, from one to the other, we note that they are also blocked in the transverse direction. The floor modules are then in place, and pre-drilled holes make it possible to fix them by screwing in the wallarion integral with the sill.

Une encoche correspond à une poutrelle, de telle sorte que l'on comprend qu'un espace est formé entre deux modules consécutifs. Afin d'assurer l'isolation de la totalité du plancher, on dispose de la laine minérale, ou tout autre type d'isolant, sur un fond de dalle 32 rapporté vissé sur les talons des poutrelles (visible sur la figure 5).A notch corresponds to a beam, so that it is understood that a space is formed between two consecutive modules. In order to ensure the insulation of the entire floor, mineral wool, or any other type of insulation, is available on a bottom plate 32 attached screwed on the heels of the beams (visible on the floor). figure 5 ).

Les pans de mur 6 (visible notamment sur la figure 9 11) sont montés sur la structure de plancher, par l'intermédiaire de semelles de positionnement 100, comme cela sera décrit ci-après. Avant cela, on peut prévoir la mise en place de bandes pare-pluie 34. (visible sur la figure 7), qui ne laissent pas passer la pluie vers l'intérieur de la maison sans pour autant piéger l'humidité à l'intérieur. Ces .bandes pare-pluie pourront être prévues dans d'autres endroits de la maison, et notamment entre la structure de plafond et les pans de mur.Wall sections 6 (visible in particular on the figure 9 11 ) are mounted on the floor structure, via positioning flanges 100, as will be described below. Prior to this, it is possible to provide the installation of rainbands 34. (visible on the figure 7 ), which do not allow rain to enter the house without trapping moisture inside. These rain bands may be provided in other places of the house, and especially between the ceiling structure and the walls.

Comme le montrent notamment les figures 11 1 et 14, les pans de mur 6 comportent une lisse inférieure 36 et une lisse supérieure 38 qui s'étendent parallèlement et entre lesquelles sont disposés des montants, qui sont par exemple écartés d'un entraxe de soixante centimètres maximum pour respecter les normes actuelles pour construction d'une maison à ossature bois Des montants d'extrémité 40 ferment latéralement le pan de mur sur toute la hauteur (figures 12 et 13).As shown in particular by figures 11 1 and 14 , the wall sections 6 comprise a lower rail 36 and an upper rail 38 which extend parallel and between which are arranged amounts, which are for example spaced apart by a distance of sixty centimeters maximum to meet current standards for construction of 'a wooden frame house End posts 40 close laterally the wall panel all the way up ( Figures 12 and 13 ).

Un panneau extérieur 42 et un panneau intérieur 44 sont fixés sur les lisses et les montants. Ils ferment le pan de mur. Celui-ci contient un isolant. Les deux panneaux se prolongent verticalement en dessous de la lisse inférieure.An outer panel 42 and an inner panel 44 are attached to the rails and uprights. They close the wall. This contains an insulator. Both panels extend vertically below the bottom rail.

Comme on peut le voir sur la figure 1.2, à chaque extrémité latérale du pan de mur, un demi-montant 46 est rapporté sur le montant d'extrémité, vers l'extérieur du pan de mur, de telle sorte que ce demi-montant dépasse en saillie du pan de mur. Le demi-montant s'étend sur toute la hauteur du montant d'extrémité, mais sur la moitié seulement de la largeur de ce montant d'extrémité. A une extrémité latérale du pan de mur, un demi-montant est décalé vers le panneau intérieur, tandis qu'à l'autre extrémité latérale du pan de mur, le demi-montant est décalé vers le panneau extérieur. Ainsi, lorsque deux pans de mur sont placés l'un contre l'autre, les demi-montants se superposent et les pans de mur et leurs panneaux se retrouvent dans la continuité les uns des autres.As can be seen on the figure 1.2 at each lateral end of the wall panel, a half-upright 46 is attached to the end upright, outwardly of the wall panel, so that the half-post protrudes projecting from the wall panel. The half-upright extends over the entire height of the end upright, but on only half of the width of this end upright. At one lateral end of the wall panel, a half-post is shifted to the inner panel, while at the other side end of the wall panel, the half-post is shifted to the outer panel. Thus, when two sections of wall are placed against each other, the half-uprights are superimposed and the wall sections and their panels are found in the continuity of each other.

Le panneau extérieur et le panneau intérieur s'étendent depuis un montant d'extrémité jusqu'au demi-montant disposé à l'extrémité opposée. On observe alors que pour un pan de muer donné, les deux panneaux sont décalés (figure 12), mais ils présentent la même taille et ils peuvent être fabriqués dans la même série.The outer panel and the inner panel extend from an end upright to the half-upright disposed at the opposite end. We then observe that for a given section of molten, the two panels are shifted ( figure 12 ), but they are the same size and they can be made in the same series.

Les pans de mur consécutifs se solidarisent les uns par rapport aux autres comme cela est visible sur les figures 12 et.13, en appliquant l'un contre l'autre les demi-montants en regard puis en vissant les deux pans de mur au niveau de trous pré-percés. Le serrage des pans de mur par vissage permet la compression d'une bande d'étanchéité préalablement disposée contre l'un des demi-montants, de manière à assurer l'étanchéité de la liaison des pans de mur successifs.The consecutive wall sections are solidarized with respect to each other as is visible on the Figures 12 and 13 , by applying the opposite half-uprights against each other and then screwing the two wall sections to pre-drilled holes. The tightening the wall sections by screwing allows the compression of a sealing strip previously arranged against one of the half-uprights, so as to ensure the sealing of the connection of the successive wall sections.

Avantageusement, les pans de mur présentent une même forme, et leurs panneaux respectifs sont de mêmes dimensions, ce qui permet une fabrication standardisée. Il n'y a pas de problèmes d'orientation de ces pans de mur au montage, car les panneaux présentent des faces différentes du fait de leur orientation finale vers l'intérieur ou l'extérieur de la maison.Advantageously, the wall sections have the same shape, and their respective panels are of the same dimensions, which allows standardized manufacturing. There is no problem of orientation of these sections of wall assembly, because the panels have different faces because of their final orientation to the inside or outside of the house.

Le fonctionnement est sensiblement le même pour la disposition des murs d'angle. Les demi-montants présentent des formes adaptées à ce qu'ils puissent venir en contact lorsque les pans de mur sont à quatre-vingt-dix degrés. Là aussi, le vissage des pans de mur entre eux se fait à travers les demi-montants qui s'étendent en saillie du pan de mur.The operation is substantially the same for the arrangement of the corner walls. The half-uprights have shapes adapted to come into contact when the walls are ninety degrees. Here too, the screwing of the walls between them is through the half-uprights that protrude from the wall.

Des éléments de recouvrement 48 sont par la suite rapportés, en fin de montage de la maison; pour couvrir ces angles (voir figure 19).Cover elements 48 are subsequently reported, at the end of assembly of the house; to cover these angles (see figure 19 ).

La structure de plafond 8 est montée sur les pans de mur 6 par l'intermédiaire de semelles de positionnement 200 comme cela sera décrit ci-après en référence aux figures 14 à 17.The ceiling structure 8 is mounted on the wall sections 6 by means of positioning flanges 200, as will be described hereinafter with reference to FIGS. Figures 14 to 17 .

La structure de plafond comporte des modules de plafond. 50 qui s'étendent dans la même direction transversale que celle des modules de plancher (figures 15 et 18).The ceiling structure has ceiling modules. 50 which extend in the same transverse direction as that of the floor modules ( figures 15 and 18 ).

Chaque module de plafond (visible partiellement sur les figures 15 à 17, et en coupe sur la figure 18) présente une forme de caisson similaire à celle décrite pour les modules de plancher. Les modules de plafond comportent en outre une paroi formant bord de caisson 52 qui vient refermer les extrémités transversales du caisson. Ce bord s'étend longitudinalement depuis une poutrelle 54 formant paroi latérale et dépasse l'autre poutrelle de manière à servir de paroi de rive pour l'espace qui va être laissé entre deux modules consécutifs et qui est rempli par la suite d'isolant, disposé sur un fond de dalle 56.Each ceiling module (partially visible on Figures 15 to 17 , and in section on the figure 18 ) has a box shape similar to that described for floor modules. The ceiling modules further comprise a wall forming box edge 52 which closes the transverse ends of the box. This edge extends longitudinally from a beam 54 forming a side wall and exceeds the other beam so as to serve as a wall for the space that will be left between two consecutive modules and which is subsequently filled with insulation, disposed on a floor 56.

La structure de plafond comporte en outre deux rives de plafond disposées à chaque extrémité longitudinale de la maison pour des raisons esthétiques et dé protection des intempéries.The ceiling structure further comprises two ceiling banks arranged at each longitudinal end of the house for aesthetic reasons and protection from the elements.

La charpente est rapportée sur cette structure de plafond, tel que cela est visible sur la figure 1. La réalisation de la charpente est connue en soi et ne sera pas plus décrite.The framework is reported on this ceiling structure, as it is visible on the figure 1 . The realization of the framework is known per se and will not be more described.

On va maintenant décrire plus précisément la fixation des pans de mur sur la structure de plancher, en se référant notamment aux figures 7 à 11. La semelle de positionnement 100 est fixée par vissage sur la structure de plancher et sur une longrine. Elle présente une forme parallélépipédique avec une section de trapèze rectangle de sorte qu'elle présente deux faces opposées d'inclinaisons différentes, une face verticale droite 102 d'arrêt en position et une face inclinée 104 d'aide au montage du pan de mur. La semelle est fixée sur la structure de plancher 6 de telle sorte que sa face droite 102 soit orientée vers l'extérieur de la maison et que sa face inclinée 104 soit orientée vers l'intérieur de la maison. Un joint d'étanchéité (non représenté sur les figures) est disposé sur cette face inclinée, en vue d'être comprimé lors du montage du pan de mur sur le plancher. La pente d'inclinaison est telle que la grande base de la section trapézoïdale se trouve alors plaquée contre le plancher et que la petite base, tournée à l'opposé du plancher, forme la face supérieure 106 de la semelle prête à être recouverte par le pan de mur.The fixing of the wall sections on the floor structure will now be described more precisely, with particular reference to the Figures 7 to 11 . The positioning flange 100 is fixed by screwing on the floor structure and on a sill. It has a parallelepipedal shape with a rectangular trapezoidal section so that it has two opposite faces of different inclinations, a right vertical face 102 stop in position and an inclined face 104 for mounting assistance of the wall section. The soleplate is fixed to the floor structure 6 so that its right face 102 is oriented towards the outside of the house and its inclined face 104 is oriented towards the interior of the house. A seal (not shown in the figures) is disposed on this inclined face, to be compressed during assembly of the wall panel on the floor. The inclination slope is such that the large base of the trapezoidal section is then pressed against the floor and the small base, turned away from the floor, forms the upper face 106 of the sole ready to be covered by the wall panel.

Des empreintes 108 sont creusées transversalement dans la face supérieure de la semelle pour former des zones de réception pour des pièces d'indexage coopérantes. Chaque empreinte présente un fond plan et des parois latérales qui s'étendent depuis le fond jusqu'à la face supérieure de la semelle. Les parois latérales sont sensiblement perpendiculaires au fond de l'empreinte et elles présentent avantageusement, ou au moins l'une d'entre elles, une inclinaison par rap.port à la verticale pour former un pan incliné qui va servir à la mise en place d'une pièce d'indexage venant se loger dans cette empreinte.Fingerprints 108 are cut transversely in the upper face of the sole to form receiving areas for cooperating indexing pieces. Each imprint has a flat bottom and side walls that extend from the bottom to the upper face of the sole. The side walls are substantially perpendicular to the bottom of the cavity and they advantageously have, or at least one of them, a tilt by rap.port vertically to form an inclined pan which will be used for the establishment of an indexing piece to lodge in this footprint.

Des semelles similaires sont disposées de proche en proche de manière à ce qu'elles s'étendent sur tout le tour de la structure de plancher On pourra prévoir deux semelles spécifiques pour les coins, avec des extrémités biseautées correspondantes. De telle sorte, les empreintes sont disposées régulièrement, chaque semelle pouvant présenter plusieurs empreintes.Similar soles are arranged step by step so that they extend over the entire tower of the floor structure It will be possible to provide two specific insoles for the corners, with corresponding bevelled ends. In this way, the impressions are arranged regularly, each sole may have several impressions.

De façon complémentaire, l'élément de structure bois constituant le pan de mur 6 comporte un tasseau 110 qui s'étend en saillie sous sa lisse inférieure 36, sur tout le long du pan de mur. Le tasseau présente une face à plan incliné 112 dont la pente est la même que celle de la face inclinée de la semelle de positionnement, mais inversée pour que les deux faces soient plaquées l'une contre l'autre lorsque le pan est en position par rapport au plancher, comme cela est visible sur la figure 11.In a complementary manner, the wooden structure element constituting the wall section 6 comprises a batten 110 which protrudes under its bottom rail 36, all along the wall section. The cleat has an inclined face 112 whose slope is the same as that of the inclined face of the positioning flange, but inverted so that the two faces are pressed against each other when the pan is in position by compared to the floor, as is visible on the figure 11 .

Avantageusement, lorsque le pan de mur est disposé verticalement, en passant d'une position initiale horizontale à la position finale verticale dans laquelle il recouvre la semelle, tel que cela sera décrit ci-après, le joint d'étanchéité disposé sur la face inclinée de la semelle est comprimé et s'étend sur toute la surface de contact entre la semelle et le tasseau. On remarque que dans cette configuration le joint est avantageusement comprimé dès la mise en place du pan de mur, avant le serrage par vissage du pan de mur sur le plancher. La mise en place du pan de mur ne génère pas de déplacement du joint d'étanchéité avant sa compression, et ne génère donc pas de performances d'étanchéité amoindries, contrairement à des modes de montage antérieurs, dans lesquels le pan de mur est amené au-dessus de la semelle et ou il est descendu verticalement en position, au risque d'entraîner dans ce déglacement le joint.Advantageously, when the wall section is disposed vertically, by passing from a horizontal initial position to the final vertical position in which it covers the sole, as will be described below, the seal disposed on the inclined face the sole is compressed and extends over the entire contact area between the sole and the cleat. Note that in this configuration the seal is advantageously compressed as soon as the installation of the wall panel, before tightening by screwing the wall panel on the floor. The installation of the wall section does not generate displacement of the seal before compression, and therefore does not generate reduced sealing performance, unlike previous mounting modes, in which the wall section is brought above the sole and down vertically in position, the risk of causing in this deglazing the seal.

Le pan de mur comporte en outre un tenon 114 qui s'étend en saillie sous sa lisse inférieure et qui présente une forme mâle complémentaire de la forme femelle de l'empreinte 108. Comme cela est visible sur la figure 9 notamment, le tasseau 110 en saillie de la lisse inférieure s'étend sur toute la longueur du pan de mur, sur la moitié de la largeur de la lisse du côté du panneau intérieur, tandis que le tenon 114 couvre l'autre moitié de la largeur de la même lisse, du côté du panneau extérieur, mais lui localement sur une distance égale à la largeur de l'empreinte. Dé la sorte, l'ensemble reste dans l'épaisseur du pan de mur, qui est celle de ladite lisse.The wall panel further comprises a pin 114 which projects under its lower rail and which has a male shape complementary to the female form of the impression 108. As can be seen in figure 9 in particular, the cleat 110 projecting from the lower rail extends over the entire length of the wall panel, on half the width of the rail on the inside panel side, while the post 114 covers the other half of the rail. width of the same smooth, the side of the outer panel, but him locally over a distance equal to the width of the footprint. In this way, the assembly remains in the thickness of the wall section, which is that of said smooth.

On va décrire le montage d'un pan de mur par rapport à la structure de plancher (non représentée) sur laquelle est fixée la semelle de positionnement 100.The mounting of a wall section with respect to the floor structure (not shown) on which the positioning flange 100 is fixed will be described.

On place les pans de mur horizontalement à l'intérieur de la maison avec la lisse inférieure 36 et le tasseau 110 à proximité de la semelle, le panneau extérieur 42 étant disposé vers le haut. On relève le pan de mur de sa position initiale horizontale. Lorsqu'on arrive sensiblement à la verticale, il conviend de soulever légèrement le pan de mur pour que, lors du basculement en position verticale du pan de mur, l'extrémité inférieure du panneau extérieur, en saillie de la lisse inférieure, n'entre pas en contact avec la face supérieure de la semelle.The wall panels are placed horizontally inside the house with the lower rail 36 and the batten 110 close to the base, the outer panel 42 being arranged upwards. The wall section is raised from its initial horizontal position. When it reaches substantially vertically, it is appropriate to raise slightly the wall section so that, when tilting in the vertical position of the wall panel, the lower end of the outer panel, projecting from the lower rail, enters not in contact with the upper face of the sole.

Le basculement en position verticale se poursuit jusqu'à ce que la partie du panneau extérieur du pan de mur qui s'étend au-dessus de la lisse inférieure passe de l'autre côté de la semelle, le pan de mur chevauchant alors la semelle de positionnement.Tilting in the upright position continues until the portion of the outer panel of the wall panel that extends above the bottom rail passes to the other side of the soleplate, the wall panel then overlapping the soleplate positioning.

Avantageusement, la semelle présente une face inclinée qui permet la mise en position du deuxième élément sur le premier élément et. une face droite qui coopère avec la paroi de butée du deuxième élément afin d'arrêter l'ensemble en position et permettre de solidariser l'ensemble dans de bonnes conditions.Advantageously, the sole has an inclined face which allows the positioning of the second element on the first element and. a right face which cooperates with the abutment wall of the second element to stop the assembly in position and to secure the assembly in good conditions.

On constate que la face inclinée de la semelle permet la mise en place du deuxième élément sur le premier sans fragiliser ce deuxième élément ce qui serait le cas si la face était droite, et on a pu voir précédemment qu'en outre la présence de cette face inclinée permet de disposer le jo.in.t d'étanchéité sans que celui-ci se déplace avant la compression par la mise en place du deuxième élément, comme cela peut être le cas dans une mise en place verticale par le dessus.It can be seen that the inclined face of the soleplate makes it possible to place the second element on the first without weakening this second element, which would be the case if the face were straight, and it has been previously seen that in addition the presence of this inclined face allows to arrange the sealing jo.in.t without it moves before compression by the establishment of the second element, as may be the case in a vertical placement from above.

Si le pan de mur est parfaitement aligné par rapport à la semelle, le basculement se poursuit jusqu'à la position verticale du pan de mur, le tenon venant se loger dans l'empreinte. Si le pan de mur est décalé, celui-ci ne peut être mis en position verticale car le tenon vient en butée contre la face supérieure de la semelle.If the wall section is perfectly aligned with the sole, the tilting continues to the vertical position of the wall panel, the tenon being lodged in the footprint. If the wall section is offset, it can not be placed in a vertical position because the tenon abuts against the upper face of the sole.

On s'assure ainsi que l'utilisateur ne peut pas estimer la position de deux pans de mur successifs comme correcte alors qu'elle ne l'est pas, ce qui permet de s'assurer que les pans de mur seront bien dans la position souhaitée par le concepteur et ce qui permet une fixation optimisée des pans de mur entre eux par la présence de trous pré-percés ainsi qu'une étanchéité optimal par la bonne compression de la bande d'étanchéité disposée entre les pans de mur. Il suffit de faire coulisser latéralement le pan de mur légèrement jusqu'à ce que le tenon glisse à l'intérieur de l'empreinte, le mouvement étant facilité par les pans inclinés de cette empreinte.This ensures that the user can not estimate the position of two successive wall sections as correct when it is not, which makes it possible to ensure that the wall sections are in the correct position. desired by the designer and which allows an optimized attachment of the wall sections between them by the presence of pre-drilled holes and an optimal seal by the good compression of the sealing strip disposed between the wall sections. Just slide the side of the wall slightly until the tenon slides inside the footprint, the movement being facilitated by the inclined faces of this footprint.

En fin de montage, le pan de mur se trouve ainsi bloqué dans deux directions perpendiculaires, à savoir dans la direction principale de la semelle par la coopération du tenon et de l'empreinte, et dans la direction perpendiculaire au pan de mur, par butée du panneau extérieur (paroi de butée dans le dispositif de l'invention) sur la face droite de la semelle et par contact du tasseau sur la face inclinée de la semelle. On assure l'arrêt en position du pan de mur par un vissage du panneau extérieur sur la semelle. Le vissage est droit, avec une vis insérée horizontalement, ce qui assure une bonne fixation de l'ensemble.At the end of assembly, the wall section is thus locked in two perpendicular directions, namely in the main direction of the sole by the cooperation of the tenon and the footprint, and in the direction perpendicular to the wall section, by stop the outer panel (abutment wall in the device of the invention) on the right side of the sole and by contacting the cleat on the inclined face of the sole. It ensures the stop in position of the wall panel by screwing the outer panel on the sole. The screw is straight, with a screw inserted horizontally, which ensures a good fixation of the whole.

On va maintenant décrire la fixation des pans de mur avec la structure de plafond, en se référant notamment aux figures 14 à 18.We will now describe the fixing of the wall sections with the ceiling structure, with particular reference to Figures 14 to 18 .

Une semelle de positionnement 200 est fixée par vissage en appui sur les lisses supérieures 38 des pans de mur qui s'étendent longitiudinalement, tel que cela est visible sur la figure 3.A positioning flange 200 is fixed by screwing in abutment on the upper rails 38 of the wall sections which extend longitudinally, as is visible on the figure 3 .

Conformément à une caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, la semelle de positionnement .200 présente la même disposition que celle décrite précédemment, avec une face inclinée et une face verticale droite. La semelle de positionnement diffère ici de celle décrite précédemment par la présence d'une embase 202 à section rectangulaire, au-dessus de laquelle s'étend un bossage longitudinal 203, long de la semelle suivant son axe. La semelle de positionnement est fixée sur les pans de mur de telle sorte que cette fois, c'est la face droite .204 qui est orientée vers l'intérieur de la maison et la face inclinée 206 qui est orientée vers l'extérieur de la maison.According to an advantageous characteristic of the invention, the positioning plate .200 has the same arrangement as that described above, with an inclined face and a straight vertical face. The positioning flange differs from that described above by the presence of a base 202 of rectangular section, above which extends a longitudinal boss 203 along the sole along its axis. The positioning flange is fixed on the wall sections so that this time, it is the right side .204 which is oriented towards the interior of the house and the inclined face 206 which is oriented towards the outside of the house. House.

Des rainures 208 sont creusées transversalement dans la semelle, plus exactement dans le bossage 203, de sa face supérieure jusqu'à l'embase 202.Grooves 208 are cut transversely in the sole, more exactly in the boss 203, from its upper face to the base 202.

On monte la structure de plafond en amenant chacun des modules successivement au-dessus des semelles de positionnement 200. Le bord du module se place du côté extérieur de la semelle, en regard de la face inclinée 206 de la semelle. Ce mouvement, qui peut se révéler compliqué pour un particulier du fait de la longueur du module, est ici facilité par la face inclinée de la semelle de positionnement sur lequel est adapté à glisser le bord du module. En position assemblée, son extrémité inférieure vient reposer contre l'embase 202. Comme précédemment, pour que le module de plancher soit correctement assemblé, on s'assure que le talon du profilé, qui joue ici le rôle du tenon dans t'assemblage vu précédemment, se loge dans la rainure 208 pour que la paroi de rive passe correctement de l'autre côté de l'embase jusqu'à venir en appui contre l'embase.The ceiling structure is mounted by bringing each of the modules successively above the positioning flanges 200. The edge of the module is placed on the outer side of the sole, facing the inclined face 206 of the sole. This movement, which can be complicated for an individual due to the length of the module, is here facilitated by the inclined face of the positioning flange on which is adapted to slide the edge of the module. In the assembled position, its lower end comes to rest against the base 202. As previously, so that the floor module is properly assembled, it is ensured that the heel of the profile, which plays here the role of the post in the assembly seen previously, is housed in the groove 208 so that the bank wall passes correctly on the other side of the base until it bears against the base.

L'utilisateur est donc obligé de faire glisser s'il le faut le module de plafond jusqu'à ce que la poutrelle trouve place dans la rainure. On s'assure ainsi que les modules de plafond sont positionnés correctement, conformément à ce qu'avait prévu le concepteur de la maison. Dans cette position, le fond du caisson repose contre la face supérieure de la semelle.The user is therefore obliged to slide if necessary the ceiling module until the beam finds room in the groove. This ensures that the ceiling modules are positioned correctly, as planned by the designer of the house. In this position, the bottom of the box rests against the upper face of the sole.

Le module de plafond est alors bloqué dans deux directions perpendiculaires, à savoir dans la direction principale de la semelle par la coopération de là poutrelle en saillie sous le module et la rainure de la semelle, et dans la direction longitudinale de la poutrelle, par butée des.parois de rive opposées du module contre la semelle qui leur est respectivement associée. On assure alors l'arrêt en position du module de plafond par un vissage du talon des poutrelles dans la semelle.The ceiling module is then locked in two perpendicular directions, namely in the main direction of the sole by the cooperation of the beam projecting under the module and the groove of the sole, and in the longitudinal direction of the beam, by abutment. opposite bank walls of the module against the sole which is respectively associated with them. It then ensures the stop in position of the ceiling module by screwing the heel of the beams in the sole.

On constate que dans les deux cas, la présence d'une semelle de positionnement facilite la mise en place des éléments de structure en bois les uns par rapport aux autres et qu'elle assure un blocage entre eux dans deux directions perpendiculaires.It is found that in both cases, the presence of a positioning flange facilitates the establishment of the wooden structure elements relative to each other and it ensures a blocking between them in two perpendicular directions.

Dès lors, la description qui précède explique clairement comment l'invention permet d'atteindre les objectifs qu'elle s'est fixés. En particulier, elle fournit un dispositif de liaison pour l'assemblage d'éléments structurels, dans le cadre d'une maison à ossature bois, qui assure une grande fiabilité de construction de la maison, tout en permettant des opérations tacites pour des non professionnels.Therefore, the above description clearly explains how the invention achieves the goals it has set. In particular, it provides a connecting device for the assembly of structural elements, as part of a wood frame house, which ensures high reliability of construction of the house, while allowing tacit operations for non-professionals .

Elle s'inscrit dans une démarche de maison en kit, montable et démontable. L'ensemble des éléments structurels est réalisé, de façon isolée en usine, et l'assemblage de tous ces éléments peut être mis en oeuvre sans moyens de levage, en permettant d'assurer la fiabilité d'une part de la solidité structurelle et d'autre part de l'étanchéité à l'air lors d'une mise en oeuvre par un non-professionnel.It is part of a home kit, mountable and dismountable. All the structural elements are produced in isolation at the factory, and the assembly of all these elements can be implemented without lifting means, making it possible to ensure the reliability on the one hand of the structural solidity and the on the other hand airtightness when used by a non-professional.

L'invention permet de ne pas tenir compte des jeux de montage mais uniquement des jeux de fabrication. Il n'y a pas de problème d'ajustement des pièces les unes par rapport aux autres, puisque les empreintes ou les rainures creusées dans les semelles de positionnement correspondent soit avec les tenons en saillie de la lisse inférieure des pans de mur, soit avec les poutrelles à profil en forme de I formant les parois latérales des modules de plafond. Dès lors, les pans de mur consécutifs sont plaqués avec plus de précision l'un contre l'autre, sans jeu excessif entre eux et l'étanchéité est facile à réaliser.The invention makes it possible to disregard assembly games but only production games. There is no problem of adjusting the pieces relative to each other, since the impressions or the grooves hollowed in the soles The locating pins correspond either with the lugs projecting from the lower rail of the wall panels, or with the I-shaped profile beams forming the side walls of the ceiling modules. Therefore, the consecutive wall panels are plated more precisely against each other, without excessive play between them and the seal is easy to achieve.

L'invention s'inscrit en outre dans un contexte de montage commode en manutention, notamment pour la fixation des pans de mur. Les pans de mur sont inclinés depuis l'intérieur grâce aux plans inclinés de la semelle et du tasseau solidaire du pan de mur.The invention is also part of a convenient mounting context handling, especially for fixing the wall sections. The wall sections are inclined from the inside thanks to the inclined planes of the sole and the batten integral with the wall panel.

Les pans de mur sont bloqués dans deux directions par rapport aux structures de plancher et de plafond et ils sont donc positionnés par ces structures et entre eux à la position souhaitée par le concepteur. Les vissages sont alors opérés dans les trous pré-percés et l'ensemble est fixé de façon stable, tandis que l'étanchéité se fait facilement puisque l'écart de position entre deux pans de mur successifs tel qu'il a été calculé est respecté.The wall panels are locked in two directions with respect to the floor and ceiling structures and are therefore positioned by these structures and to each other at the position desired by the designer. The screwings are then operated in the pre-drilled holes and the assembly is fixed in a stable manner, while the sealing is easily done since the positional deviation between two successive wall sections as calculated is respected. .

Il ressort néanmoins de ce qui précède que l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de mise en oeuvre qui ont été spécifiquement décrits et illustrés par les figures. Elle s'étend au contraire à toute variante passant par le biais de moyens équivalents.It nevertheless follows from the foregoing that the invention is not limited to the embodiments which have been specifically described and illustrated by the figures. On the contrary, it extends to any variant passing through equivalent means.
