Description

La présente invention concerne une tuile à douille pour une couverture de bâtiment, ainsi qu'un procédé de fabrication de cette tuile à douille, et une couverture de bâtiment comportant de telles tuiles à douille.The present invention relates to a casing tile for a building cover, as well as to a method of manufacturing the casing tile, and a building cover comprising such casing tiles.

Les bâtiments à usage d'habitation, ou à usage professionnel, notamment pour des activités tertiaires, peuvent comporter une couverture en tuiles reposant sur une charpente. Les tuiles sont souvent réalisées en terre cuite, mais également en béton, ou en matériau synthétique comme une résine.Residential or professional buildings, particularly for tertiary activities, may have a tiled roof resting on a framework. The tiles are often made of terracotta, but also of concrete, or synthetic material such as a resin.

On installe des liteaux fixés sur la charpente transversalement par rapport à la pente du toit, écartés de manière régulière, recevant sur chacun un rang de tuiles.We install installed battens on the frame transversely to the slope of the roof, spaced regularly, each receiving a row of tiles.

Les tuiles répondent à différents critères esthétiques suivant les régions. Par leurs formes, leurs couleurs et leurs tailles, les tuiles contribuent à former un style et une identité pour les habitations d'une région.The tiles meet different aesthetic criteria according to the regions. By their shapes, their colors and their sizes, the tiles help to form a style and an identity for the dwellings of a region.

Par ailleurs, compte-tenu du niveau d'isolation thermique élevé nécessaire pour le chauffage des bâtiments, et de l'étanchéité à l'air de l'ensemble du bâtiment qui en résulte, il est courant d'utiliser des moyens de ventilation tels qu'une ventilation mécanique contrôlée « VMC ». L'air est admis en différents points du bâtiment, il est ensuite extrait de manière contrôlée par une turbine motorisée, et expulsé généralement par des sorties dans la toiture.Moreover, given the high level of thermal insulation required for the heating of buildings, and the airtightness of the entire building that results, it is common to use ventilation means such as controlled mechanical ventilation "VMC". The air is admitted at different points of the building, it is then extracted in a controlled manner by a motorized turbine, and expelled generally by exits in the roof.

Pour les sorties d'air il est connu d'utiliser une tuile spécifique, appelée tuile à douille, présentant une forme générale et des dimensions identiques pour s'insérer comme les autres tuiles standard dans un pan de la toiture.For air outlets it is known to use a specific tile, called socket tile, having a general shape and identical dimensions to fit like other standard tiles in a roof pan.

La tuile à douille comporte en son centre un contour circulaire sensiblement vertical, réalisé par une déformation de la surface vers le haut, qui se termine par une couronne horizontale comportant au centre un passage circulaire.The casing tile has in its center a substantially vertical circular contour, formed by a deformation of the surface upwards, which ends in a horizontal ring having in the center a circular passage.

La couronne horizontale reçoit un chapeau appelé lanterne, comportant une forme globalement cylindrique disposée verticalement, comprenant un dessus fermé pour éviter des entrées d'eau, et un contour vertical présentant une série d'ouvertures permettant la sortie de l'air extrait.The horizontal ring receives a cap called lantern, having a globally cylindrical shape arranged vertically, comprising a closed top to prevent water ingress, and a vertical contour having a series of openings allowing the exit of the extracted air.

Un problème qui se pose avec ce type de tuile à douille et qu'elle est produite en très petite quantité par rapport aux autres tuiles standard des toitures, alors qu'il faut pour des raisons esthétiques pouvoir la proposer avec toutes les variantes d'aspects et de couleurs présentées sur ces tuiles standard.A problem that arises with this type of socket tile and that it is produced in very small quantity compared to other roof tiles standard, while it is necessary for aesthetic reasons can propose it with all variants of aspects and colors presented on these standard tiles.

La forme compliquée de ces tuiles à douille nécessite un outillage de production spécifique qui est coûteux à réaliser. De plus il faut maintenir un stock disponible dans toutes les variantes d'aspects et de couleurs, ce qui entraîne des coûts importants.The complicated shape of these socket tiles requires specific production tooling that is expensive to produce. In addition, it is necessary to maintain an available stock in all variants of aspects and colors, which entails significant costs.

En variante un type de tuile à douille connu, présenté notamment par le document EP-A1-2759652 , comporte une forme globalement plate similaire aux autres tuiles standard, présentant une ouverture centrale comportant un petit rebord de hauteur constante sur son contour. Un insert en matière plastique ajouté sur l'ouverture, est fixé par collage ou clipsage dessus.In a variant a type of known socket tile, presented in particular by the document EP-A1-2759652 , has a generally flat shape similar to other standard tiles, having a central opening with a small rim of constant height on its contour. A plastic insert added to the opening is fixed by gluing or clipping on it.

Toutefois le petit rebord sur le contour de l'ouverture de cette tuile est plus simple à fabriquer qu'une forme circulaire s'étendant sur la hauteur, mais nécessite quand même un outillage spécifique, et un maintien dans le stock de ces tuiles particulières suivant toutes les variantes, qui entraîne des coûts.However, the small edge on the edge of the opening of this tile is easier to manufacture than a circular shape extending over the height, but still requires specific tools, and a maintenance in the stock of these particular tiles next all variants, which entails costs.

En variante un autre type de tuile à douille connu, présenté notamment par le document DE-U1-29815502 , comporte une tuile présentant une forme entièrement standard, dans laquelle on a réalisé une ouverture pour le passage d'un fourreau vertical, prévu pour recevoir à l'intérieur un conduit de passage d'air d'extraction. La jonction du fourreau vertical et de la tuile reçoit un cordon de collage sur le pourtour complet de ce fourreau, afin d'assurer un maintien mécanique et une étanchéité.Alternatively another type of known socket tile, presented in particular by the document DE-U1-29815502 , comprises a tile having a completely standard shape, in which an opening has been made for the passage of a vertical sleeve, designed to receive inside an exhaust air duct. The junction of the vertical sheath and the tile receives a bead of bonding around the entire circumference of this sheath, to ensure mechanical retention and sealing.

Toutefois ce type de fixation par collage disposé sur le dessus de la tuile à douille, présente des problèmes de vieillissement qui peuvent réduire la durée de vie de cette tuile. En particulier les rayonnements ultraviolets du soleil dégradent dans le temps les qualités de la colle, il peut en résulter des fuites d'eau de pluie ruisselant sur cette tuile qui s'infiltrent au travers du collage dégradé, ou un décollage du fourreau.However, this type of adhesive fastening disposed on the top of the socket tile, has aging problems that can reduce the life of this tile. In particular the ultraviolet radiation of the sun degrade in time the qualities of the glue, it may result in leakage of rainwater dripping on the tile that infiltrate through the degraded gluing, or a takeoff of the sheath.

La présente invention a notamment pour but d'éviter ces inconvénients de la technique antérieure.The present invention is intended to avoid these disadvantages of the prior art.

Elle propose à cet effet une tuile à douille pour une couverture de bâtiment, prévue pour être disposée au milieu de tuiles standard, cette tuile à douille comportant une tuile percée, et un bulbe prolongeant le perçage de cette tuile percée, cette tuile à douille étant remarquable en ce que la base du bulbe comporte un contour s'ajustant dans le perçage de la tuile percée, et comporte autour de ce contour un rebord continu présentant une extrémité qui s'approche de la surface supérieure de cette tuile percée, en formant en dessous un canal recevant un cordon de colle.It proposes for this purpose a socket tile for a building cover, intended to be arranged in the middle of standard tiles, this socket tile having a pierced tile, and a bulb prolonging the drilling of this pierced tile, this socket tile being remarkable in that the base of the bulb has a contour fitting in the piercing of the pierced tile, and comprises around this contour a continuous flange having an end which approaches the upper surface of this pierced tile, forming in below a channel receiving a bead of glue.

Un avantage de cette tuile à douille est que l'on peut pratiquer une découpe au milieu d'une tuile standard pour obtenir la tuile percée, ce qui permet d'utiliser des tuiles standard gardées en stock suivant toutes leurs variantes.An advantage of this socket tile is that it can be cut in the middle of a standard tile to obtain the pierced tile, which allows the use of standard tiles kept in stock according to all their variants.

Ensuite de manière simple on dépose dans le canal à l'intérieur du rebord un cordon de colle continu, puis on presse le bulbe sur la tuile percée en le centrant grâce au contour de la base s'ajustant dans le perçage. Le cordon de colle se fixant sur le dessus de la tuile autour de la découpe, constitue un moyen de fixation efficace, assurant une étanchéité sur le contour complet, qui est protégé en particulier des agressions mécaniques et des rayonnements ultraviolets par le rebord le couvrant entièrement.Then in a simple manner is deposited in the channel inside the flange a continuous bead of glue, then the bulb is pressed on the pierced tile by centering through the contour of the base fitting in the bore. The glue bead attaching to the top of the tile around the cut, constitutes an effective fastening means, ensuring a tightness on the complete contour, which is protected in particular from mechanical aggression and ultraviolet radiation by the rim covering it entirely. .

La tuile percée produite à partir d'une tuile standard fabriquée en grande série avec toutes les nuances nécessaires, ne nécessitant pas de stockage particulier, permet d'éviter un outillage spécifique de moulage d'une tuile à douille, ainsi que la gestion de stocks de tuiles différentes. On réduit les coûts.The pierced tile produced from a standard tile manufactured in large series with all the necessary nuances, not requiring any particular storage, makes it possible to avoid specific tools for molding a socket tile, as well as inventory management. of different tiles. We reduce costs.

La tuile selon l'invention peut comporter de plus une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes, qui peuvent être combinées entre elles.The tile according to the invention may further comprise one or more of the following features, which may be combined with one another.

Avantageusement, le rebord continu comporte dans une section transversale une partie tournée radialement vers l'extérieur, puis une partie descendante dirigée vers le dessus de la tuile percée.Advantageously, the continuous flange comprises in a cross section a portion turned radially outwards, then a descending portion directed towards the top of the pierced tile.

Dans ce cas, le canal en dessous du rebord continu peut présenter une section transversale globalement rectangulaire disposant d'un côté qui peut être en biais.In this case, the channel below the continuous rim may have a generally rectangular cross section with a side that may be angled.

Avantageusement, le bulbe comporte au-dessus du rebord continu une forme conique se resserrant, puis une couronne horizontale présentant un perçage central.Advantageously, the bulb comprises, above the continuous rim, a conical shape that becomes narrower, then a horizontal ring having a central bore.

Avantageusement, le bulbe est formé d'une seule pièce par moulage.Advantageously, the bulb is formed in one piece by molding.

Dans ce cas, le bulbe peut être formé par un moulage dans un moule présentant une ouverture suivant un axe vertical.In this case, the bulb may be formed by molding in a mold having an opening along a vertical axis.

Avantageusement, la découpe du perçage comporte un bord disposé verticalement quand la tuile percée est inclinée suivant la pente du toit.Advantageously, the cutting of the bore has a vertically disposed edge when the pierced tile is inclined according to the slope of the roof.

L'invention a aussi pour objet un procédé de fabrication d'une tuile à douille comprenant l'une quelconque des caractéristiques précédentes, comportant une étape de découpe du perçage central sur une tuile standard pour former la tuile percée.The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a socket tile comprising any one of the preceding features, comprising a step of cutting the central bore on a standard tile to form the pierced tile.

L'invention a de plus pour objet une couverture d'un bâtiment comportant des tuiles à douille comprenant l'une quelconque des caractéristiques précédentes.The invention furthermore relates to a cover of a building comprising casing tiles comprising any one of the preceding features.

La figure 1 présente une couverture comportant des tuiles standard 2 maintenues sur des liteaux 4 de la charpente pour former des rangs de tuiles, entourant une tuile à douille 6 présentant au centre une élévation de la surface 8 de forme légèrement conique se resserrant vers le haut, formant un contour circulaire autour d'un axe vertical A.The figure 1 has a cover with standard tiles 2 held on battens 4 of the frame to form rows of tiles, surrounding a socket tile 6 having in the center an elevation of the surface 8 of slightly conical shape tightening upwards, forming a circular contour around a vertical axis A.

L'élévation de surface 8 se termine par une couronne horizontale 10, présentant un perçage central recevant le débit d'air d'un tube d'aération 18 qui une fois installé arrive un peu en dessous de cette couronne.The surface elevation 8 ends with a horizontal ring 10 having a central bore receiving the air flow of a ventilation tube 18 which once installed arrives a little below this ring.

La figure 2 présente une tuile à douille 20 comportant une tuile percée 22 présentant une forme et un aspect identiques à ceux des tuiles standard 2, recevant sur un perçage central un bulbe 24 présentant en partie supérieure la couronne horizontale 10 recevant en dessous de son perçage central le tube d'aération 18.The figure 2 has a sleeve tile 20 having a pierced tile 22 having a shape and appearance identical to those of the standard tiles 2, receiving on a central bore a bulb 24 having in the upper part the horizontal ring 10 receiving below the central bore the tube ventilation 18.

Le contour de la base du bulbe 24 comporte un rebord continu 26 ajusté sur le dessus de la tuile percée 22, contenant à l'intérieur un cordon de colle continu 28, qui est collé sur le dessus de cette tuile percée de manière à assurer une étanchéité et une tenue mécanique sur ce contour complet.The outline of the base of the bulb 24 has a continuous flange 26 fitted on the top of the pierced tile 22, containing inside a bead of continuous glue 28, which is glued on top of this pierced tile so as to ensure sealing and mechanical resistance on this complete contour.

La figure 3 présente la tuile percée 22 formée avec un même moule qu'une tuile standard 2, comprenant une surface supérieure visible après le montage de la couverture, comportant en regardant le bord inférieur 40, à gauche une partie plane 30, et à droite une partie bombée 32 de largeur réduite par rapport à cette partie plane.The figure 3 presents the pierced tile 22 formed with the same mold as a standard tile 2, comprising an upper surface visible after the mounting of the cover, comprising by looking at the lower edge 40, on the left a flat part 30, and on the right a curved part 32 of reduced width relative to this flat part.

Le bord gauche de la tuile percée 22 comporte une rainure longitudinale 34 se terminant par un rebord, recevant le bord droit de la tuile adjacente afin de former un canal d'écoulement des eaux de pluie.The left edge of the pierced tile 22 has a longitudinal groove 34 terminating in a rim, receiving the right edge of the adjacent tile to form a rainwater flow channel.

Le bord supérieur de la tuile percée 22 comporte deux nervures supérieures parallèles 36, 38 délimitant entre elles une rainure transversale qui débouche sur le côté dans la rainure longitudinale 34.The upper edge of the pierced tile 22 has two parallel upper ribs 36, 38 defining between them a transverse groove which opens on the side in the longitudinal groove 34.

Le dessous du bord inférieur 40 comporte des rainures 42 s'ajustant sur les nervures supérieures 36, 38 de la tuile adjacente du rang inférieur.The underside of the lower edge 40 has grooves 42 fitting on the upper ribs 36, 38 of the adjacent tile of the lower row.

La tuile percée 22 comporte un perçage central circulaire 44 formé en grande partie sur la partie plane 30, et débordant sur la partie bombée 32. Le perçage central 44 peut être réalisé par tout moyen de découpe adapté au matériau d'une tuile standard 2, comportant notamment un usinage avec un outil coupant, un estampage avec un outil de presse, ou d'autres procédés de découpe comme une découpe laser ou jet d'eau.The pierced tile 22 has a circular central bore 44 formed largely on the flat portion 30, and projecting over the curved portion 32. The central bore 44 can be made by any cutting means adapted to the material of a standard tile 2, including machining with a cutting tool, stamping with a press tool, or other cutting methods such as laser cutting or water jet.

En particulier la découpe du perçage central 44 peut être réalisée pour former un bord 46 de cette découpe disposé verticalement quand la tuile percée 22 est inclinée suivant la pente du toit, qui est généralement comprise entre 20 et 45°.In particular the cutting of the central bore 44 can be performed to form an edge 46 of this cutout disposed vertically when the pierced tile 22 is inclined along the slope of the roof, which is generally between 20 and 45 °.

Le perçage central 44 peut être circulaire, ou présenter toute autre forme, une forme ovale notamment, suivant le contour du bulbe 24 à ajuster dedans.The central bore 44 may be circular, or have any other shape, an oval shape in particular, depending on the contour of the bulb 24 to be adjusted inside.

Les figures 4 et 5 présentent le bulbe 24 qui peut être réalisé dans tout matériau, notamment par un moulage d'une matière plastique.The Figures 4 and 5 present the bulb 24 which can be made of any material, in particular by molding a plastic material.

Le bulbe 24 comporte à sa base un contour 50 s'ajustant dans le perçage 44 de la tuile percée 22, avec un jeu minimum de manière à positionner ce bulbe.The bulb 24 has at its base an outline 50 fitting into the bore 44 of the pierced tile 22, with a minimum clearance so as to position this bulb.

En particulier la base du contour 50 peut former un cylindre vertical, s'ajustant dans le bord 46 du perçage central 44 qui est aussi découpé suivant une verticale quand la tuile percée 22 est inclinée dans sa position de montage.In particular the base of the contour 50 can form a vertical cylinder, fitting into the edge 46 of the central bore 44 which is also cut vertically when the pierced tile 22 is inclined in its mounting position.

Le rebord continu 26 entourant la base du contour 50, comporte une première partie tournée radialement vers l'extérieur 52, disposée globalement dans un plan parallèle à la surface de la tuile percée 22, puis une deuxième partie descendante 54 venant à proximité de cette tuile, qui est perpendiculaire à la première partie. En variante la deuxième partie descendante 54 peut rejoindre la surface de la tuile 22 suivant une direction parallèle à l'axe du contour 50.The continuous flange 26 surrounding the base of the contour 50, has a first portion turned radially outwardly 52, disposed generally in a plane parallel to the surface of the pierced tile 22, and a second descending portion 54 coming close to this tile which is perpendicular to the first part. In a variant, the second descending portion 54 can join the surface of the tile 22 in a direction parallel to the axis of the contour 50.

On obtient un canal continu présentant une section sensiblement rectangulaire avec un côté qui peut être en biais suivant la position sur le contour, disposée parallèlement à la surface de la tuile percée 22.A continuous channel having a substantially rectangular section with a side which can be angled according to the position on the contour, arranged parallel to the surface of the pierced tile 22 is obtained.

Le rebord continu 26 suit les ondulations de la surface de la tuile percée 22, en particulier la partie bombée 32, de manière à rester à une distance constante de cette surface. Le canal sous le rebord 26 présente une section globalement constante sur l'ensemble de son développé.The continuous rim 26 follows the corrugations of the surface of the pierced tile 22, in particular the curved portion 32, so as to remain at a constant distance from this surface. The channel under the rim 26 has a generally constant section over the whole of its developed.

Le bulbe 24 permet en particulier un moulage avec un moule présentant un mouvement d'ouverture suivant la direction verticale, qui comporte seulement deux éléments grâce à l'absence de contre-dépouille de ce bulbe pour un démoulage dans cette direction. Le moule est simple à fabriquer, et les coûts de production du bulbe 24 sont réduits.The bulb 24 allows in particular a molding with a mold having an opening movement in the vertical direction, which comprises only two elements due to the absence of undercut of this bulb for demolding in this direction. The mold is simple to manufacture, and the production costs of the bulb 24 are reduced.

Lors de la fabrication de la tuile à douille 20, on retourne le bulbe 24 et on dépose un cordon de colle continu 28 dans le canal sous le rebord 26. Puis on dispose le bulbe 24 sur la tuile percée 22 en le centrant facilement dans le perçage 44, et on le presse de manière à coller de manière continue le cordon de colle 28 sur cette tuile. Pendant cette opération de pressage la colle 28 reste en position grâce au rebord 26 l'entourant.During the manufacture of the socket tile 20, the bulb 24 is turned over and a bead of continuous glue 28 is deposited in the channel under the rim 26. Then the bulb 24 is placed on the pierced tile 22 by easily centering it in the piercing 44, and is pressed so as to continuously glue the adhesive bead 28 on this tile. During this pressing operation the glue 28 remains in position thanks to the flange 26 surrounding it.

On obtient ainsi de manière simple, efficace et rapide, la tuile à douille finie 20. Le rebord 26 couvrant la totalité du cordon de colle 28 protège cette colle contre des agressions mécaniques, et notamment contre les expositions aux rayons ultraviolets.The finished sleeve tile 20 is thus obtained in a simple, effective and rapid manner. The rim 26 covering the entire adhesive bead 28 protects this adhesive against mechanical aggressions, and in particular against exposures to ultraviolet rays.

On notera que la tuile percée 22 ne comportant pas de rebord épais autour du perçage 44, le bulbe 24 collé de manière continue autour de ce perçage constitue un renfort efficace de cette tuile afin de la renforcer dans sa partie centrale qui est plus fragile.Note that the pierced tile 22 having no thick rim around the bore 44, the bulb 24 stuck continuously around this piercing is an effective reinforcement of the tile to strengthen it in its central part which is more fragile.

On notera aussi que le bulbe 24 pouvant présenter des parois relativement minces, avec une épaisseur comprise en particulier entre 1,5 et 3mm, la base du contour 50 inséré dans le perçage 44 occupe une distance radiale réduite ce qui permet de prévoir un grand diamètre de passage du tube d'aération 18. Par comparaison, l'épaisseur de l'élévation de surface réalisée dans le même matériau que la tuile pour une tuile à douille suivant l'art antérieur, est généralement comprise entre 8 et 12mm.Note also that the bulb 24 may have relatively thin walls, with a thickness in particular between 1.5 and 3mm, the base of the contour 50 inserted in the bore 44 occupies a reduced radial distance which allows to provide a large diameter In comparison, the thickness of the surface elevation made in the same material as the tile for a socket tile according to the prior art is generally between 8 and 12 mm.
