Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a novel and useful system for mounting panels to a façade found on building structures and the like.
  • Panels are often used on residential and commercial buildings to cover walls or facades since they have proved to be economical, protective of the edifice, and exhibit a high degree of design versatility, when compared to other coverings.
  • panel systems have been employed that are categorized as "progressive style systems". That is to say, that the panels are installed progressively from left to right on the bottom row of a building façade and then upwardly one row at a time in the same direction.
  • progressive style panel system The disadvantage of a progressive style panel system is that if a single panel must be removed, many other panels must also be removed prior to gaining access to such single panel.
  • United States Patent 6,588,165 shows an extrusion device for mounting a wall panel that utilizes a base having receiver flanges that accept a clip that snaps into a channel and includes arms that extend over the top of the panel.
  • United States Patent Application Publication 2012 /0304573 describes a panel clip structure which is attached the backside of the panel and is attached to horizontal joints through a tongue and groove system. A plurality of horizontal caps then keeps a single panel from being easily removed without repositioning adjacent panels on the façade.
  • United States Patent Application Publication 2006/0080939 features a wall panel system that utilizes a plurality of furring strips that are used to fasten panels via fasteners extending through grooves formed in the panel itself.
  • United States Patent 6,688,056 describes a demountable wall panel system that utilizes vertical posts, a panel covering, a sealing rail, and an articulating floor channel.
  • a support frame is formed and operatively connected to the articulating floor channel, which is used to secure the frame to a ground surface.
  • United States Patent 7,752,818 shows a self-leveling clip which is fixed to the façade and holds a panel by the use of a retentive clip that is engaged by a self-drilling screw between adjacent panels.
  • Document EP 0 360 001 A1 relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1 for fixing panels to a wall.
  • the fixing of the panels to horizontal support sections is carried out by means of fixing elements which are fixed to the support section by means of a bayonet-type fastening.
  • the fixing elements are designed in the form of a mushroom and have a foot, a rectangular web and a head. The fixing elements are secured against the danger of twisting in that the panels rest with their whole weight on the wider side of the rectangular web.
  • An apparatus for mounting a plurality of panels to a façade in a non-progressive manner, efficiently and economically, would be a notable advance in the building industry.
  • the apparatus of the present application utilizes a base or field extrusion having a plate and first and second flanges extending outwardly from the plate.
  • the first and second flanges form an open channel which extends along the plate.
  • Each of the first and second flanges is formed with a resilient leg that extends inwardly toward the channel.
  • the base is held to the façade by a fixing element such as a plurality of screws, rivets, and the like.
  • An extension element or frame extrusion is connected to each of the panels to be mounted to the façade.
  • Each extension element is formed with a platform that is supported by the plate of the base. Platforms on adjacent extension elements connected to adjacent panels are positioned apart from one another and away from the faces of the first and second panels.
  • a fastener is utilized to interconnect adjacent panels.
  • Such fastener is fashioned with a basal portion and first and second arms projecting from the basal portion.
  • the basal portion also is formed with pair of inclined surfaces that are angled relative to the plate.
  • the pair of arms extending from the basal portion each includes contact surfaces for engaging the platforms found on the extension elements of adjacent panels.
  • the pair of inclined surfaces of the basal portion of the fastener is dimensioned to slide on a pair of resilient legs of the flanges extending from the plate of the base. Such sliding takes place upon the rotation of the basal portion of the fastener within the channel of the base resulting in a force being exerted on the resilient legs of the flanges.
  • Such force forces the contact surfaces of the pair of arms of the fastener to firmly press downwardly on the platforms of the extension elements connected to adjacent panels and, thus, hold the adjacent panels to the façade.
  • the extension element may also be formed with a slot such that adjacent extension elements connected to adjacent panels allow the insertion of a strip that essentially occupies the space or reveal between panels.
  • the extension element may also be employed to hold corner brackets between panels.
  • a stiffener may also be used in adjacent panels and be at least partially supported by a shelf connected to extension elements found in adjacent panels. Stiffeners provide support to the panels in order to prevent deflection and cracking of the panel.
  • extension elements may be located at various distances from the face of the panel to the base, thus, adjusting the depth of the space between panels as may be architecturally specified.
  • Another object of the present application is to provide an apparatus for fabricating and mounting a plurality of panels to a façade that is capable of being installed quickly and efficiently by the use of a manually operated fastener.
  • Another object of the present application is to provide an apparatus for fabricating and mounting a plurality of panels to a façade in which the reveal between panels includes an adjustable depth or distance between the façade and the panel.

  • Cavity or space 83 between feet 66 and 68 may accept gasket material 85 (shown partially in FIG. 6 ) to resist water intrusion behind panels 26 and 28. Gasket material 85 will slide with exemplar extension element 54 upon the thermal expansion and contraction of panel 26.
  • first extrusion element 54 includes a projection 70 that forms a slot 72.
  • a shelf 74 also extends outwardly from the body 76 of first extrusion element 54.

  • Stop 82 lies at the terminus of legs 78 and is intended to contact panel 26 to serve as a gauge to determine the distance between panel 26 and platform 64.
  • a flange 58 projects from extrusion element 54 and may serve as a rest for a panel return longer than panel return 60. Thus, the depth between panels 24 and 26 and façade 22 may be adjusted.
  • apparatus 10 has been assembled to hold panels 26 and 28 to façade 22. That is to say, first panel 26 having extension element 54 connected thereto has been placed on plate 14 of base 12. Likewise, panel 28 having extension element 62 attached to connected return 84 also lies atop plate 14 of base 12. Panels 26 and 28 are positioned in spaced relationship to one another such that a gap or reveal 86 is formed between returns 60 and 84 of panels 26 and 28, respectively.
