Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to a suspended ceiling system for a room having a structural ceiling and corresponding method for providing a suspended ceiling in a room having a structural ceiling.
  • concrete When constructing buildings or similar, concrete is often used as it is a cost effective rigid material having a long service life.
  • the foundation, the walls, the floor structures and the roof structures are commonly formed by reinforced concrete.
  • suspended ceilings When using concrete slabs, it is common to use so called suspended ceilings or false ceilings.
  • the suspended ceilings are then provided below the structural ceiling formed by the concrete slabs themselves.
  • the suspended ceilings are commonly made of a number of tiles which are suspended from the concrete slabs forming the structural ceiling.
  • the suspended ceiling may be formed by individually suspended and free hanging ceiling tiles using some form of wire, cord or similar. According to common practice, four wires or more wires may be used to suspend a single ceiling tile. This means that at least four holes commonly has to be drilled in the structural ceiling to suspend a single ceiling tile. The drilling of no less than at least four holes for each tile is for natural reasons time consuming. The time consuming work implies high costs due to e.g. personnel expenses.
  • TABS Thermally Active Building Structures
  • the channels provided in the slabs are situated close to the lower surface of the slab, i.e. close to the structural ceiling of the building.
  • the reason for the channels being provided close to the surface is that an improved efficiency is achieved by this arrangement.
  • the channels are typically provided only a few centimeters below the concrete surface of the slabs of the building.
  • the drilling locations might be determined if the personnel drilling the holes are aware of the locations of the channels within the slabs.
  • the process of determining the drilling locations is time consuming and undesired.
  • a suspended ceiling system for a room having a structural ceiling
  • said system comprising: a body unit attachable to said structural ceiling, at least two string like suspension members, such as a wire, a line, a cable, a cord, a thread, and a ceiling tile with sound absorbing properties, wherein each string like suspension member is attachable to said ceiling tile at two attachment points, wherein said ceiling tile is suspendable in said body unit by means of said at least two string like suspension members, and wherein said body unit for each of said at least two string like suspension members defines a suspension member receiving path for reception thereof.
  • string like suspension members such as a wire, a line, a cable, a cord, a thread, and a ceiling tile with sound absorbing properties
  • the present invention is based on the realization that it is possible to reduce the number of fix points or attachment points needed in the structural ceiling to suspend a ceiling tile. This is achieved by suspending the ceiling tile in string like suspension members from a body unit which is attachable to the structural ceiling of a building. In practice, a single body unit having a single fix point may be used to suspend a ceiling tile.
  • string like suspension members such as wires, lines, cables, cords, threads or the like are used to suspend the ceiling tile from the body unit being attachable to the structural ceiling.
  • the term "string like suspension members” may be any type of member showing flexibility and being suitable for suspending a hanging element.
  • the suspension member is attachable to the ceiling tile at two attachment points.
  • the attachment to the ceiling tile may be made using any suitable method.
  • the suspension member may be connected to a prearranged element on the ceiling tile.
  • the prearranged element may be formed of a portion of the ceiling tile itself or may be an independent element which is e.g. screwed into or glued onto the ceiling tile.
  • the suspension member may be attachable directly to the ceiling tile, by e.g. penetrating the ceiling tile.
  • the term "ceiling tile” may be any type of element which is being suspendable from a structural ceiling to form part of or constitute a suspended ceiling.
  • the element may be free hanging in the sense that it does not contact any neighboring elements or does not have any neighboring elements.
  • the element may also be suspendable such that is contacts neighboring elements. For natural reasons the same type of elements may be suspended as free hanging elements or as elements being in contact with neighboring elements. Further, the element may exhibit different shapes and may be made of different materials or material combinations.
  • the element may be a decorative element and/or an element serving a technical purpose such as sound absorption, fire protection or concealing of piping or wiring.
  • sound absorbing properties conventionally refer properties of a material resulting in that sound energy impinging on the material is partly being absorbed in the sense that the sound energy is transmitted through the material and also transformed into another energy form such as heat or mechanical movement. This means that the amount of sound energy impinging on the material is higher than the amount of energy being reflected by the material.
  • sound absorbing properties may refer to properties of a material which brings about the acoustics of a room is influenced such that the characteristics of the acoustics become more pleasant for a person present in the room, when the material is present in the room.
  • body unit may mean any type of element which is being attachable to a structural ceiling and having a path for receiving a suspension member.
  • the body unit may be attachable to the structural ceiling by any suitable means such as being screwed, bolted, glued etc.
  • the path for receiving a suspension member is to be construed as a path defined in the material of the body unit in which the suspension member rests or partly rests, directly or indirectly, when suspending a ceiling tile.
  • the path may for instance be a grove in which the suspension member may rest or may be a channel through which the suspension member may passed. Further, the path may for instance be formed of shoulders or between which the suspension member may extend.
  • the string like suspension member may comprises a length adjustment device for adjusting a length of said string like suspension member extending between said two attachment points associated thereto.
  • the possibility to adjust the length brings about several advantages.
  • the distance between the structural ceiling and the ceiling tile may be adjusted, i.e. the height may be adjusted.
  • the orientation of the ceiling tile may be adjusted such that the tile is suspended in a inclined angle with respect to the structural ceiling.
  • the length adjustment device may be utilized to compensate for an inclined or uneven structural ceiling.
  • the suspension member may be adjusted such that the any uneven weight distribution between the attachment points is counteracted.
  • each of said suspension member receiving paths may define two entries, wherein said entries of said suspension member receiving paths are circumferentially distributed. By distributing the entries of the paths circumferentially any unwanted rotation of the ceiling tile may be counteracted.
  • said entries may be evenly circumferentially distributed, which is advantageous in that unwanted rotation of the ceiling tile and unwanted bending of the suspension member is counteracted.
  • said body unit may comprise a locking element for locking of said string like suspension members in said receiving paths, which is advantageous in that undesired tilt of the ceiling tile may be counteracted.
  • each one of said receiving paths may be a through channel extending through said body unit.
  • said body unit may comprise a marking for laser alignment of said body unit, which is advantageous in that accurate positioning of the body unit is facilitated during attachment to the structural ceiling.
  • said body unit may comprise two sections which are adjustable in relation to each other.
  • the position of the suspension members may be adjusted in relation to the attachment position of the body unit to the structural ceiling. This in turn means that the position of a suspended ceiling tile may be adjusted.
  • said sections may be rotatably adjustable in relation to each other, which is advantageous in that the orientation of the suspension members may be adjusted. This in turn means that that the rotational position of a suspended ceiling tile may be adjusted.
  • said body unit may be arranged for sliding attachment of said body unit to said ceiling by means of a profile element, which is advantageous in that a simple attachment to a structural ceiling may be achieved by providing a profile element on the structural ceiling.
  • said ceiling tile may comprise mineral wool, glass wool and/or rock wool, which is advantageous in that sound absorbing ceiling tiles may be provided in a cost effective manner using well known manufacturing processes.
  • said string like suspension members may be attachable to said attachment points by means of a hook element, which is advantageous in that simple and reliable attachment may be achieved.
  • said length adjustment device may be integrated in said hook element, which is advantageous in that an easy to install solution comprising a reduced number of loose parts may be achieved in a cost effective manner.
  • a method for providing a suspended ceiling in a room having a structural ceiling comprising: providing at least two string like suspension members, such as a wire, a line, a cable, a cord, a thread, providing a body unit, which body unit for each of said at least two string like suspension members defines a suspension member receiving path for reception thereof, providing a ceiling tile, attaching said body unit to said structural ceiling, attaching each one of said string like suspension members to said ceiling tile at two attachment points, receiving each one of said string like suspension members in said suspension member receiving paths, suspending said ceiling tile in said body unit by means of said at least two string like suspension members.

It is thus possible to adjust the position of any ceiling tile 502a-c being suspended by means of the body units 508a-c and the profile element 509. By this arrangement the position may be adjusted in two substantially perpendicular directions along the surface of the structural ceiling of the building.
  • a body unit 608a is attached to a profile element 609a by being slid into and substantially encased by the profile element 609a. It is to be noted that the openings of the paths 605a into which the wires 604a are inserted are provided on un underside of the body unit 608a to facilitate the sliding arrangement into the profile element 609a.
  • Fig.6b illustrates a body unit 608b provided with peripheral groves 601 b used to slide the body unit 608b onto a profile element 609b having a U shaped cross section.
  • wires 604b may still exit on the peripheral surface of the body unit 608b as is shown.
  • Fig. 6c illustrates a body unit 608c provided with an internal grove 601 c used to slide the body unit 608c onto a profile element 609c having an I shaped cross section. Also in this arrangement wires 604c may exit the peripheral surface of the body unit 608c as is shown.
  • a method for providing a suspended ceiling will be described in detail hereinafter. The method will for reasons of simplicity be described when using a suspended ceiling system 100 as depicted in Fig. 1 . As will be substantiated below, a plurality of the method steps may be performed in a random order. The order of the steps in which they occur in the claims and in the below description is by no means limiting.
  • the material needed will be provided.
  • the material needed e.g. the body units 108a-c, the wires 104a-c and the ceiling tiles 102a-e may be provided at different points of time or at the same time.
  • the work may start with different steps or working moments.
  • One way to start is to conduct measurement related to determining the position of the body units 108a-c which are to be attached to the structural ceiling. The determination may be conducted with any suitable measurement technique including laser assisted measurements. When the correct positions for attachment of the body units 108a-c to the structural ceiling has been determined, holes may be drilled for attaching the body units 108a-c to the structural ceiling. It is however of course possible to use other suitable attachment techniques including adhesives, nails or similar.
  • attachment elements 406 may be provided by being screwed into the ceiling tiles 102a-e. The so attached attachment elements 406 will provide attachment points 106a-e. The ceiling tiles 102a-e are thus prepared for being suspended by means of the attachment elements 406.
  • Sting like suspension members 104a-e in form of wires 104a-e may then be prepared.
  • the wires 104a-e may be provided in suitable predetermined lengths or may be provided on a roll, bobbin or similar and then cut into suitable lengths.
  • the wires 104a-e may then be provided with hook elements 407 in one of their free ends.
  • the wires 104a-e may then be passed through the channels 205a-b of the bodies 107a-e, such that a single wire is passed through each of the channels 205a-b.
  • a hook element 407 may also be provided in the remaining free end of the wires 104a-e.
  • wires 104a-e may then be looked in their respective channels 205a-b using a locking screw 303. By tightening the locking screw 303 the wires 104a-e becomes locked with respect to the body units 104a-e.
  • One hook element 407 of each wire may then be attached to their intended attachment points 106a-e on the ceiling tiles 102a-e.
  • the ceiling tiles 102a-e are thus hanging in a substantially vertical direction. It is now possible to make further adjustments of the lengths of the respective wires 104a-d. Following this the remaining hook elements 407 may be attached to their respective intended attachment points 106a-e.
  • the ceiling tiles 102a-e are thus suspended in a manner substantially parallel to the structural ceiling as illustrated in Fig. 1 . Further adjustments may then be carried out if needed. For instance, the lengths of the wires 104a-e may be further adjusted such that the weight of the ceiling tiles 102a-e are evenly distributed. Also the rotation of the ceiling tiles may be adjusted. This may e.g. be performed by rotating the body units 108a-e or by rotating the section 208b.2 when using a body unit of the type illustrated in Fig 2b .
  • the body unit which in the shown embodiments has been illustrated as a single body may be formed as separate bodies, having at least one suspension member receiving path each.
