Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a false ceiling structure having a high structural simplicity, which allows for a simple installation and removal and high-quality aesthetics, since the supporting profiles remain completely hidden. It also relates to a false ceiling structure, convenient to install and in which the supporting flanges remain hidden, without resorting to specific profiles.
  • plates or trays are supported on the posterior or front profile and are inserted into the opposite one thus completely or partially covering the profile.
  • the supported part is raised until it can be disengaged from the opposite profile, at which time the plate invades the interior zone between the profile and the ceiling, in case of meeting any obstacle like the tensioners of the hanging system of the profiles or the passage of supply or service facilities, it is necessary to remove the plate or plates adjacent to displace it (them) laterally and remove the plate in this new position.
  • Ceiling structures of the type comprising a false ceiling plates, profiles provided with a bottom flange and a web so as to define two tabs for the support of two adjacent plates, the plates being provided with a supporting and positioning tabs on the sides of support plates being disengageable by a rotation which implies the vertical displacement of one side followed by a translational displacement of the plate to the disengaged from the side on which the rotation has been made, are also known.
  • the invention provides for a false ceiling structure, comprising false ceiling plates, profiles for supporting said plates for supporting two adjacent plates, parts for supporting the plates joined thereto and provided with a supporting flange, and wherein said parts comprise at least a positioning element of the supporting flange in respect to the profile, and the parts are configured to allow the simultaneous displacement:
  • the supporting profile is provided with at least two portions with a vertical section provided with openings over which said supporting flanges are supported.
  • these parts are small plates provided with five portions perpendicular with each other and in a stepped form, the first of these portions corresponding to the supporting flange, the second to an abutting and positioning portion that leans against a portion of the profile with a vertical section, two third and fourth portions which define a space between the part and the plate and a fixation portion of the part to the plate, the height of the fourth portion being greater than the height of the vertical portion of the profile arranged under the opening and the height of the opening being greater than the height of the second portion, such that it is possible to move the plate between two positions, one wherein the supporting flange leans on the opening and the second portion abuts with the profile thereby positioning the plate and another one wherein the plate is raised until said space lies in front of the vertical portion of the profile arranged under the opening and the second portion in front of the opening in which it is possible to move laterally the plate.
  • the distance between the projection of the second portion of the part over the plate and the edge of the plate corresponds to half the horizontal width of the supporting profile.
  • the supporting profiles are U-inverted profiles.
  • the structure comprises bridles for hanging it on the supporting profiles.
  • fixation portion is attached to the plate by a staple or an equivalent fixation element.
  • the invention also relates to a false ceiling structure, comprising false ceiling plates, profiles provided with a lower flange and a web such that two flanges are defined for supporting two adjacent plates, the plates being provided with supporting and positioning flanges in the supporting sides, the plates being disengageable by a rotation involving the vertical displacement of one of the sides then followed by a translation displacement of the plate for disengagement of the side on which the rotation has been done, which is characterised in that the supporting and positioning flanges of one of the sides are fixed in respect to the plate, and the flanges of the opposite side are retractable, retracting the retractable flanges in the movement of translation displacement.
  • the present invention combines the teachings of the two state of the art documents for obtaining a dismountable system by a simple displacement of the plate and which is compatible with commercial profiles.
  • the supporting retractable flanges comprise a resilient plastic member, such that these flanges are retracted when pressing the web of the profile. Therefore, the stability of the plate is ensured by the retractable member which remains continuously pressed by the spring.
  • the plates comprise a retractable member in the engagement region in the side opposite the plate, the retractable member of the engagement region being mechanically linked with the retractable flange such that the sliding of the retractable member end in the plate causes a sliding of the same length of the retractable flange.
  • the retractable member is a rod which is attached to the retractable flange.
  • the invention can be applied to wood, plaster or metallic plates.
  • the inferior portion of the plates has a width in the separation direction of the supporting profiles which is the same to the distance between consecutive profiles.
  • the invention relates to a false ceiling structure, comprising false ceiling plates 1, profiles 2 for supporting said plates 1 for supporting two adjacent plates 1, parts 3 for supporting the plates 1 joined thereto and provided with a supporting flange 31.
  • the invention is characterised in that said parts 3 comprise at least a positioning element of the supporting flange 31 in respect to the profile 2, and the part 3 being configured to allow the simultaneous displacement:
  • the supporting profile 2 is provided with at least two portions 11, 12 with a vertical section provided with openings 13 over which said supporting flanges 31 are supported.
  • a structure as described can be done in many ways, although an embodiment in which these parts 3 are plates provided with five portions 31, 32, 33, 34, 35 perpendicular with each other and in a stepped form, as shown in figures 3 and 4 , is preferred.
  • the first portion 31 corresponds to the supporting flange.
  • the second one 32 corresponds to an abutting and positioning portion that leans against a portion 11 with a vertical section of the profile 2.
  • the two portions third and fourth 33, 34 define a space between the part 3 and the plate 1.
  • Finally the fifth one 35 is a fixation portion of the part 3 to the plate 1.
  • the height of the fourth portion 34 is greater than the height of the vertical portion of the profile arranged under the opening 13 and the height of the opening greater than the height of the second portion, such that it is possible to move the plate between two positions, one wherein the supporting flange leans on the opening and the second portion abuts with the profile thereby positioning the plate and another one wherein the plate is raised until said space lies in front of the vertical portion of the profile arranged under the opening 13 and the second portion in front of the opening 13 in which it is possible to move laterally the plate 1, displacement shown by the arrow B of figure 1 .
  • the distance between the projection of the second portion 32 of the part 3 over the plate 1 and the edge of the plate 1 corresponds to half the horizontal width of the supporting profile 2, such that by the opposite side of the profile a plate identical will lie adjacent to the first plate.
  • the supporting profiles 2 are preferably U-inverted profiles.
  • bridles 4 are provided for hanging it on the supporting profiles 2. If necessary, it is possible to directly fix the supporting profiles 2 to the ceiling as shown in figure 1 .
  • the supporting portion in the profile 2 could be provided with a central engagement portion in the edge of the opening of the profile, for example by means of an inlaying.
  • the supporting part 3 could require to be made of only three portions, though with dimensions selected to allow the claimed displacement abilities, for example as schematically shown in figure 5 .
  • the supporting profiles are disposed with the openings for supporting the flanges facing each other, and therefore positioning profiles are provided for fixing with each other adjacent supporting profiles 2, which can be arranged diagonally as struts.
  • Figure 6 shows an embodiment in which the plate has dimensions greater than the distance between two adjacent supporting profiles 2, but in which supporting parts in the intermediate profiles are provided. In this case, it is also possible to remove the plate according to the present invention.
  • the invention also relates to a false ceiling structure, comprising plates 1' of a false ceiling, profiles 2' provided with a lower flange 3' and a web 4' such that two flanges are defined 41', 42' for supporting two adjacent plates 1', the plates being 1' provided with supporting and positioning flanges 5', 6' in the supporting sides, the plates being 1' disengageable by a rotation involving the vertical displacement of one of the sides then followed by a translation displacement of the plate 1' for disengagement of the side on which the rotation has been done.
  • the invention is characterized in that the supporting and positioning flanges 5' of one of the sides are fixed in respect to the plate, and the flanges 6' of the opposite side are retractable, retracting the retractable flanges 6' in the movement of translation displacement.
  • a first alternative would be that the supporting retractable flanges 6' comprise a resilient plastic member 7', such that these flanges 6' are retracted when pressing the web of the profile 4'.
  • the plates 1 ' comprise a retractable element 8' in the engagement region in the side opposite the plate 1', the retractable member being mechanically linked 8' of the engagement region with the retractable flange 6' such that the sliding of the retractable member end 8' in the plate 1' causes a sliding of the same length of the retractable flange 6'. Therefore, this embodiment omits the use of a spring, but uses a mechanical link between both sides of the plate.
  • the retractable element 8 ' is a rod 9' attached to the retractable flange 6', as illustrated in the plan views of the 8' and 12 '.
  • the inferior portion of the plates 1' has a width in the separation direction of the supporting profiles which is the same to the distance between consecutive profiles. As illustrated in Figures 1 'and 2', it is also possible that said width is a multiple of the distance between the profiles, so that a single plate 1 'can cover large areas.
  • inventive structure solutions overcomes the prior art because it eliminates mechanisms, facilitates the extraction of the plates from the profiles, and in this system, all the plates are accessible in all the assemblies, which in turn, allows the mounting of plates which distance is greater than the distance between the profiles in any direction.
