Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a suspended ceiling. More specifically, the present invention relates to an improved suspended ceiling comprising a ceiling tile and supporting structure and a method for installing the ceiling tile in the supporting structure. The present invention also relates to an improved ceiling tile for a suspended ceiling.
  • a suspended ceiling in a room or in another accommodation may serve a variety of purposes.
  • One purpose of having a suspended ceiling may be to conceal an underside of a space, such as another room, which is located above the room.
  • Another purpose may be to provide an improved noise absorption and/or noise attenuation in and outside of the room.
  • the resulting plenum space located between the suspended ceiling and a main ceiling of the room may further be utilized to accommodate e.g. wiring, piping, as well as devices related to heating, ventilation and air condition.
  • the suspended ceiling consists of a plurality of ceiling panels which are fitted into a supporting grid, comprising inverted T-profiles, which is mounted in the main ceiling.
  • a supporting grid comprising inverted T-profiles
  • a displacement of a ceiling panel may be induced by a sudden change of air pressure in the room, for instance when a door connected to the room is abruptly opened or closed.
  • the displacement may occur when a force is applied to the ceiling panel from below, which may happen, for example, during a cleaning process of the ceiling panel.
  • the displacement problem has been addressed in the disclosure EP0979908 , wherein certain spring arrangements have been used.
  • so-called hold-down clips mounted on the back sides of the ceiling panels may be utilized to spring arrangements or hold-down clips, are concealed in an assembled state.
  • the external locking devices may destroy parts keep the ceiling panels in place.
  • these external locking devices such as spring arrangements or hold-down clips, are concealed in an assembled state.
  • the external locking devices may destroy parts of the ceiling tile, due to the ceiling tile being porous and consequently fragile. Also, it is difficult to implement an efficient automated manufacturing process in which the external locking device is mounted into a proper position of the ceiling tile.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide an improved ceiling tile which is adapted to be mounted in the inventive suspended ceiling according to the above.
  • An advantage of the present inventive concept is that the ceiling tile is prevented from getting displaced in a vertical direction. By means of the engagement from above as well as from below, a vertical displacement of the ceiling tile is prevented.

  • a further advantage of the present inventive concept is that the ceiling tile is easy to mount. More specifically, the ceiling tile may be mounted by performing a series of acts which are described below in relation to the second aspect of the invention.
  • a further advantage of the present inventive concept is that it is unnecessary to lift the ceiling tile above the grid of profiles during mounting, thereby making the mounting process easier. Thereby, a smaller vertical extension of the plenum space may be needed in order to mount the ceiling tile which, for instance, may result in more available headroom in the room.
  • the ceiling tile also is easily demountable. For example, this property may make it easer to access the plenum space when needed. In particular, there is no need for a separate entrance chamber in the ceiling for accessing the plenum space, since any part of the suspended ceiling comprising the inventive ceiling tiles is equally accessible.
  • the ceiling tiles comprised in the inventive suspended ceiling are more efficiently prevented from involuntary displacements which may be induced by a wind uplift, impacts from objects, forces applied to the ceiling panel from below, e.g. during a cleaning process, a sudden change of air pressure in the room when a door connected to the room is abruptly opened, etc.

  • the grid of profiles engages with the first and second pair of side-edge portions under elastical deformation of the latter.
  • an elastical deformation of an object with a given original shape, which is not deformed is meant a moderate deformation or bending of the object such that it essentially assumes its original undeformed shape when the deformation action or bending is ceased.
