Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mounting system for mounting a panel onto a surface.
  • Plastic sheets are currently used as protective panels in a number of applications such as:
  • Such plastic sheets are generally bonded to the wall or ceiling using an adhesive.
  • adhesives include polyurethane adhesives, water based acrylics, silicones, contact adhesives. While these provide a secure bond to the wall, they present issues at the end of the life of the surface preparation sheet as the wall is likely to be damaged when the sheet is removed.
  • US3899803 discloses a self-gripping device which a sheet member containing gripping elements for self-gripping engagement with a receiving layer.
  • US2006/107501 discloses a cooperative fastener comprising an elongated fastening strip with male fasteners extending from a first surface and foam disposed on the first surface, where at least a portion of the foam extends to a height greater than the height of the male fastener elements.
  • DE1784067 discloses joining means for detachable fixing of cladding elements to ceilings and walls and corresponding to a mounting system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a mounting system for mounting a panel onto a surface comprising a protective panel having a panel surface which comprises one or more portions and one or more portions of a reusable mounting system provided on the one or more portions of the panel surface wherein the reusable mounting system is adapted to engage with the surface having corresponding portions which are provided with the reusable mounting system wherein the reusable mounting system comprises a hook material and a loop material of a hook and loop system characterised in that
  • the system may comprise a surface preparation sheet having one or more portions which are provided with a reusable mounting system for engaging with a protective panel having corresponding portions which are provided with the reusable mounting system.
  • the system may comprise a component frame comprising a frame for receiving a component wherein the frame has an outward facing surface on which one or more surface preparation sheets are provided.
  • the system may comprise a protective panel having a panel surface which comprises one or more portions of a reusable mounting system for engaging with a surface in need of protection which surface has one or more corresponding portions of the reusable mounting system; and a release sheet which is shaped to shield the reusable mounting system of the protective panel wherein the release sheet has one or more portions of reusable mounting system at one end.
  • a reusable mounting system is strong enough to securely fix a protective panel to a wall and that the protective panels are removable without causing substantial damage to the wall which allows replacement of damaged protective panels, recycling of protective panels as they can be easily reused in a different location, change of colour or design of the protective panels, change of use of a room, upgrade of a room (for example by the addition of or changing the location of power points, switches, display panels and/or network points) and/or easier access to the area behind the protective panel, enabling maintenance of equipment and/or services such as plumbing, electrics and/or electronics; the inclusion of a sliding layer allows the protective panel to be positioned on a surface without the reusable mounting systems of the surface and of the protective panel engaging which is particularly useful where the protective panel is relatively large and needs careful alignment.
  • the reusable mounting system is a two-part reusable mounting system wherein one part is provided on a protective panel and the other part is provided on a surface preparation sheet wherein a secure bond is provided when the one part engages with the other part.
  • the reusable mounting system is a non-chemical reusable mounting system.
  • the reusable mounting system is a physical reusable mounting system composed of two or more parts. Generally, the mounting system is reusable because the one part can be removed from the other part to release the bond and then the two parts can be re-engaged to form a secure bond.
  • the reusable mounting system is a mechanical reusable mounting system.
  • the reusable mounting system comprises one or more magnets and a magnetisable metal; a hook material and a loop material (known as Velcro (registered trademark)); or one or more male plastic parts and one or more female plastic parts (such as a press fit fitting).
  • a further issue with known protective panels is that a mechanism is required for holding the sheet in place while the adhesives cures. This is particularly problematic in the case of ceilings.
  • the reusable mounting system according to the invention has the advantage that as the bond between the parts of the system is non-chemical, the two parts engage quickly such that the protective panel is mounted on the surface preparation sheet without the need for a mechanism to hold the protective panel in place whilst a bond forms.
  • the sliding layer is an insulating removable release sheet and the reusable mounting system comprises one or more magnets and a magnetisable metal.
  • the protective panel may have a thickness of from 0.5mm to 10mm.

  • the surface preparation sheet may be in the form of a roll, for example the surface preparation sheet may have a length of from 1m to 100m.
  • the surface preparation sheet may have a layer of adhesive material on its wall facing or back surface. The adhesive material may be suitable for adhering to brickwork, blockwork, plasterboard, painted surface and/or ceramic tile.
  • the surface preparation sheet is provided on a component frame which is attachable to a surface using a fixing such as a screw fixing wherein the component frame forms a compartment for receiving one or more components such as an electronic component such as a lighting, battery, processing, alarm and/or Wi-Fi component or a ventilation component such as ducting or a heating, cooling and/or air conditioning unit.
  • the compartment provides ducting for air conditioning, heating or cabling.
  • the protective panel comprises a release sheet which is shaped to shield the reusable mounting system of the protective panel wherein the release sheet has one or more portions of reusable mounting system at one end.
