Description

La présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication et de mise en oeuvre d'un faux plafond composé de lames verticales.The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing and implementing a false ceiling composed of vertical strips.

En effet, certains plafonds sont composés de lames parallèles entre elles, dans le but d'améliorer l'esthétique d'une pièce dans laquelle il serait monté. Ces lames, qui s'étendent de façon préférentielle verticalement, peuvent avoir des longueurs constantes ou différentes, et peuvent être disposées de façon structurée ou aléatoire au sein de ce plafond, l'essentiel étant que ce plafond embellisse la pièce. Généralement, un tel plafond vient tapisser un plafond plan et continu délimitant de façon permanente ladite pièce.Indeed, some ceilings are composed of blades parallel to each other, with the aim of improving the aesthetics of a room in which it would be mounted. These strips, which preferentially extend vertically, can have constant or different lengths, and can be arranged in a structured or random manner within this ceiling, the main thing being that this ceiling embellishes the room. Generally, such a ceiling lines a flat and continuous ceiling permanently delimiting said room.

Or, il s'avère que la structure de ce type de plafond est particulièrement lourde et qu'elle implique un grand nombre de pièces, dont le positionnement pour réaliser ladite structure est souvent long et difficile à mettre en place. US 3 006 019 A divulgue un plafond comportant des lames verticales.However, it turns out that the structure of this type of ceiling is particularly heavy and that it involves a large number of parts, the positioning of which to achieve said structure is often long and difficult to put in place. US 3,006,019 A discloses a ceiling having vertical blades.

Un procédé selon l'invention, permet de réaliser un plafond doté de lames verticales, en s'affranchissant des inconvénients rencontrés dans l'état de la technique.A method according to the invention makes it possible to produce a ceiling provided with vertical slats, overcoming the drawbacks encountered in the state of the art.

L'invention a pour objet un procédé de fabrication et de mise en oeuvre dans une pièce d'un plafond comportant des lames verticales.The subject of the invention is a process for the manufacture and implementation in a room of a ceiling comprising vertical blades.

Selon l'invention, le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes :

  • une étape de réalisation d'une ossature comprenant au moins deux rails parallèles,
  • une étape de solidarisation d'une plaque d'arrimage dotée de premiers trous à chaque rail,
  • une étape de fixation de l'ossature munie des plaques d'arrimage à son endroit prédestiné dans la pièce,
  • une étape d'élaboration de plusieurs contrelattes dotées chacune de plusieurs lames parallèles et possédant des deuxièmes trous,
  • une étape de positionnement de chaque contrelatte entre les deux plaques d'arrimage de façon à superposer un deuxième trou de la contrelatte avec un premier trou de chaque plaque d'arrimage,
  • une étape de fixation de chaque contrelatte aux deux plaques, au moyen de l'introduction de deux goupilles dans les premiers et les deuxièmes trous superposés.
According to the invention, the method comprises the following steps:
  • a step of producing a framework comprising at least two parallel rails,
  • a step for securing a securing plate provided with first holes to each rail,
  • a step of fixing the frame provided with the securing plates at its predestined place in the room,
  • a step of producing several counter-slats each equipped with several parallel blades and having second holes,
  • a step of positioning each counter-batten between the two securing plates so as to superimpose a second hole of the counter-batten with a first hole of each lashing plate,
  • a step of fixing each contrelatte to the two plates, by means of the introduction of two pins in the first and the second superposed holes.

Le principe d'un procédé selon l'invention est d'abord de mettre en place l'ossature à son emplacement définitif dans une pièce dans laquelle va être installé le plafond à lames, puis de fixer chacune des contrelattes dotées de leurs lames parallèles, aux deux plaques d'arrimage au moyen de deux goupilles. Une goupille sert à fixer la contrelatte à une plaque d'arrimage et l'autre goupille sert à fixer la contrelatte à l'autre plaque. Les contrelattes s'étendent donc entre les deux plaques d'arrimage fixées aux deux rails. Préférentiellement l'ossature constituée par les rails et les plaques d'arrimage, une fois fixée dans la pièce, s'étend dans un plan horizontal, et les lames de toutes les contrelattes s'étendent verticalement. Les lames d'une même contrelatte peuvent avoir des longueurs égales ou des longueurs différentes, la longueur étant leur dimension considéré suivant un axe vertical. Il est supposé que chaque contrelatte est amenée contre une plaque d'arrimage de façon à faire correspondre un deuxième trou et un premier trou, avant de procéder à l'introduction de la goupille dans les deux trous superposés. Avantageusement, les lames sont en bois, et les plaques d'arrimage et les rails sont en métal. Avantageusement, une ossature comprend plusieurs paires de deux rails parallèles chacune. De façon préférentielle, chaque rail est creux et est délimité par deux parois parallèles reliée par une paroi de liaison s'étendant perpendiculairement auxdites parois parallèles, conférant audit rail un profil en forme de U. Préférentiellement, la pièce dans laquelle est monté le plafond à lames, représente un espace clôt délimité par un plafond permanent et continu, et le plafond à lames verticales vient se placer sous le plafond permanent et continu de ladite pièce.The principle of a method according to the invention is first to set up the frame in its final location in a room in which the slatted ceiling will be installed, then to fix each of the counter-slats equipped with their parallel slats, to the two securing plates by means of two pins. One pin is used to attach the counter-batten to one securing plate and the other pin is used to attach the counter-batten to the other plate. The counterbattens therefore extend between the two stowage plates fixed to the two rails. Preferably, the framework constituted by the rails and the securing plates, once fixed in the part, extends in a horizontal plane, and the blades of all the counter battens extend vertically. The slats of the same batten can have equal lengths or different lengths, the length being their dimension considered along a vertical axis. It is assumed that each counterlath is brought against a securing plate so as to match a second hole and a first hole, before proceeding with the introduction of the pin into the two superimposed holes. Advantageously, the blades are made of wood, and the securing plates and the rails are made of metal. Advantageously, a framework comprises several pairs of two parallel rails each. Preferably, each rail is hollow and is delimited by two parallel walls connected by a connecting wall extending perpendicularly to said parallel walls, giving said rail a U-shaped profile. slats, represents an enclosed space delimited by a permanent and continuous ceiling, and the ceiling with vertical slats is placed under the permanent and continuous ceiling of the said room.

Selon une caractéristique possible de l'invention, chaque plaque d'arrimage s'étend le long d'un rail, l'étape de solidarisation de chaque plaque à un rail s'effectuant par fixation mécanique. Cette fixation mécanique peut par exemple s'effectuer avec des vis et des écrous, ou des rivets, ou des goupilles ou des clips. Il est important que la liaison entre une plaque d'arrimage et un rail soit robuste et fiable afin qu'elle ne se dégrade pas dans le temps.According to a possible characteristic of the invention, each stowage plate extends along a rail, the step of securing each plate to a rail being carried out by mechanical fastening. This mechanical fixing can for example be carried out with screws and nuts, or rivets, or pins or clips. It is important that the connection between a lashing plate and a rail is robust and reliable so that it does not deteriorate over time.

Avantageusement, chaque plaque d'arrimage s'étend sur toute la longueur du rail. Préférentiellement, la largeur de la plaque d'arrimage est supérieure à celle du rail, si bien que ladite plaque déborde latéralement dudit rail. La largeur de la plaque est sa dimension considérée perpendiculairement à sa longueur.Advantageously, each securing plate extends over the entire length of the rail. Preferably, the width of the securing plate is greater than that of the rail, so that said plate projects laterally from said rail. The width of the plate is its dimension considered perpendicular to its length.

Selon une caractéristique possible de l'invention, l'étape de solidarisation de chaque plaque à un rail s'effectue aux moyens de vis et d'écrous. Ces vis et écrous peuvent constituer le moyen de fixation principal de la plaque au rail, ou venir en complément d'un autre moyen de fixation pouvant par exemple être un clippage.According to a possible characteristic of the invention, the step of securing each plate to a rail is carried out by means of screws and nuts. These screws and nuts can constitute the main fixing means of the plate to the rail, or come in addition to another fixing means which can for example be a clipping.

Selon une caractéristique possible de l'invention, l'étape de fixation de l'ossature à son endroit prédestiné dans la pièce, s'effectue de manière à placer les plaques dans un plan horizontal et à la même altitude. De cette manière, toutes les plaques d'arrimage sont coplanaires et peuvent permettre de placer les contrelattes à la même hauteur.According to a possible characteristic of the invention, the step of fixing the framework to its predestined place in the room, is carried out so as to place the plates in a horizontal plane and at the same altitude. In this way, all the stowage plates are coplanar and can allow the counter battens to be placed at the same height.

Selon une caractéristique possible de l'invention, l'étape de fixation de l'ossature à son endroit prédestiné dans la pièce, s'effectue en positionnant les rails au-dessus de chaque plaque de façon à ce qu'ils s'étendent horizontalement.According to a possible characteristic of the invention, the step of fixing the frame to its predestined place in the room, is carried out by positioning the rails above each plate so that they extend horizontally .

Selon une caractéristique possible de l'invention, chaque contrelatte est une pièce allongée, l'étape de fixation de chaque contrelatte aux deux plaques solidarisées aux deux rails, s'effectuant en plaçant lesdites contrelattes parallèles entre elles et de sorte qu'elles s'étendent chacune dans une direction horizontale. De façon préférentielle, les contrelattes sont horizontales, parallèles entre elles et à la même altitude.According to a possible characteristic of the invention, each counter-slat is an elongated piece, the step of fixing each counter-slat to the two plates secured to the two rails, being carried out by placing said counter-slats parallel to each other and so that they are each extend in a horizontal direction. Preferably, the contrelattes are horizontal, parallel to each other and at the same altitude.

Selon une caractéristique possible de l'invention, l'étape de fixation de chaque contrelatte aux deux plaques solidarisées aux deux rails s'effectue en positionnant les contrelattes perpendiculairement aux deux plaques.According to a possible characteristic of the invention, the step of fixing each counter-slat to the two plates secured to the two rails is carried out by positioning the counter-slats perpendicularly to the two plates.

Selon une caractéristique possible de l'invention, le procédé comprend une étape de réalisation d'une fente à chaque extrémité de chaque contrelatte, l'étape de positionnement de chaque contrelatte entre les deux plaques s'effectuant au moyen de l'insertion desdites plaques dans lesdites fentes. De cette manière, les deux plaques d'arrimage jouent le rôle d'éléments de guidage pour chaque contrelatte. En effet, les extrémités de la contrelatte sont placées au niveau des deux plaques de manière à ce que celles-ci soient introduites dans les deux fentes. Généralement, la contrelatte est ensuite déplacée le long des deux plaques d'arrimage en coulissant le long de celles-ci pour parvenir à son emplacement de fixation le long desdites deux plaques.According to a possible characteristic of the invention, the method comprises a step of producing a slot at each end of each counterlath, the step of positioning each counterlath between the two plates being carried out by means of the insertion of said plates in said slots. In this way, the two stowage plates act as guide elements for each batten. Indeed, the ends of the contrelatte are placed at the level of the two plates so that they are inserted into the two slots. Generally, the counterlath is then moved along the two stowage plates by sliding along them to reach its fixing location along said two plates.

Selon une caractéristique possible de l'invention, le procédé comprend une étape d'insertion d'un matériau insonorisant entre le plafond à lames et un plafond permanent de la pièce placé au-dessus de celui-ci. En effet, la pièce dans laquelle est destiné à venir se fixer le plafond à lames verticales comprend généralement un plafond permanent continu. Le plafond à lames verticales est destiné à venir se positionner sous le plafond permanent, en ménageant avec celui-ci un espace libre. Cet espace libre va alors servir à placer une structure ou un matériau insonorisant.According to a possible characteristic of the invention, the method comprises a step of inserting a sound-absorbing material between the slatted ceiling and a permanent ceiling of the room placed above the latter. Indeed, the room in which the vertical slat ceiling is intended to be fixed generally comprises a continuous permanent ceiling. The vertical slatted ceiling is intended to be positioned under the permanent ceiling, leaving a free space with it. This free space will then be used to place a structure or sound-absorbing material.

L'invention a pour autre objet, un plafond réalisé à partir d'un procédé selon l'invention.Another object of the invention is a ceiling produced using a process according to the invention.

Selon l'invention, le plafond comprend une ossature possédant au moins deux plaques d'arrimage et deux rails, lesdites plaques étant solidarisée auxdits rails et s'étendant dans un plan horizontal, le plafond comprenant en outre une pluralité de contrelattes munies chacune de plusieurs lames verticales, lesdites contrelattes étant parallèles et s'étendant dans une direction horizontale, chaque contrelatte étant fixée aux deux plaques au moyen de deux goupilles.According to the invention, the ceiling comprises a frame having at least two securing plates and two rails, said plates being secured to said rails and extending in a horizontal plane, the ceiling further comprising a plurality of counter battens each provided with several vertical slats, said counterlaths being parallel and extending in a horizontal direction, each counterlath being fixed to the two plates by means of two pins.

De cette manière, chaque rail 6 constitue une pièce creuse allongée, dont la section transversale a une forme en U. Tous les rails 6 de l'ossature 5 sont préférentiellement parallèles. Ces rails 6 agissent comme des éléments de renforcement destinés à rigidifier la structure porteuse 4.By referring to figure 2 And 4 , the rails 6 are elongated and are preferably made of metal. They are delimited by two parallel side walls 9, 10 interconnected by a connecting wall 11 extending perpendicularly to said two side walls 9, 10. In this way, each rail 6 constitutes an elongated hollow part, the cross section of which has a U-shape. All the rails 6 of the frame 5 are preferably parallel. These rails 6 act as reinforcing elements intended to stiffen the load-bearing structure 4.

En se référant aux figures 2, 3 et 4, à chaque rail 6 de l'ossature 5 est fixée une plaque d'arrimage 7 avantageusement réalisée en métal. Chaque plaque d'arrimage 7 est allongée et s'étend sur toute la longueur du rail 6. Elle présente une largeur qui est supérieure à celle du rail 6, si bien qu'elle déborde de chaque côté dudit rail 6. Chaque plaque d'arrimage 7 est fixée à un rail 6 par exemple au moyen de vis et d'écrous s'échelonnant sur toute la longueur du rail 6 à intervalles réguliers. Lorsque la structure porteuse 4 est installée dans sa position opérationnelle dans la pièce 1, chaque plaque d'arrimage 7 s'étend horizontalement en étant placée sous le rail 6, ledit rail 6 supportant ladite plaque d'arrimage 7. Le rail 6 est centré sur la plaque d'arrimage 7, si bien que ladite plaque d'arrimage 7 déborde de chaque côté du rail 6 avec la même amplitude. Chaque rail 6 est fixé à la plaque d'arrimage 7 par l'intermédiaire de sa paroi de liaison 11, qui se retrouve au contact de ladite plaque d'arrimage 7 en étant parallèle à celle-ci.By referring to figure 2 , 3 and 4 , to each rail 6 of the frame 5 is fixed a securing plate 7 advantageously made of metal. Each stowage plate 7 is elongated and extends over the entire length of the rail 6. It has a width which is greater than that of the rail 6, so that it overflows on each side of the said rail 6. Each plate of stowage 7 is fixed to a rail 6 for example by means of screws and nuts extending over the entire length of the rail 6 at regular intervals. When the load-bearing structure 4 is installed in its operational position in room 1, each securing plate 7 extends horizontally by being placed under the rail 6, said rail 6 supporting said securing plate 7. Rail 6 is centered on the stowage plate 7, so that said stowage plate 7 overflows on each side of the rail 6 with the same amplitude. Each rail 6 is fixed to the stowage plate 7 via its wall of link 11, which is found in contact with said securing plate 7 while being parallel thereto.

En se référant aux figures 3 et 4, les parties de la plaque d'arrimage 7 débordant de chaque côté du rail 6 sont chacune percées de premiers trous 12 traversants, régulièrement espacés le long de ladite plaque 7. Ces premiers trous 12 sont disposés de telle sorte qu'un premier trou 12 de l'une des deux parties débordant du rail 6, est toujours alignés sur un premier trou 12 de l'autre partie suivant un axe transversal, qui est perpendiculaire à un axe longitudinal de la plaque d'arrimage 7.By referring to figures 3 and 4 , the parts of the securing plate 7 projecting from each side of the rail 6 are each pierced with first through holes 12, regularly spaced along said plate 7. These first holes 12 are arranged such that a first hole 12 of one of the two parts projecting from the rail 6, is always aligned with a first hole 12 of the other part along a transverse axis, which is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the securing plate 7.

En se référant aux figures 2 et 4, le plafond 2 à lames verticales 3 comprend des contrelattes 13 qui sont des pièces allongées supportant chacune des lames parallèles 3. Chaque lame 3 est préférentiellement réalisée en bois et a une forme parallélépipédique. Les lames 3 sont fixées à la contrelatte 13 par exemple par vissage ou par clippage, en étant parallèles les unes aux autres, et de sorte que leurs axes longitudinaux soient perpendiculaires à un axe longitudinal de ladite contrelatte 13. Lorsque la structure porteuse 4 est installée dans sa position opérationnelle dans la pièce 1, les contrelattes 13 s'étendent horizontalement et les lames s'étendent verticalement. Au sein d'une même contrelatte 13, les lames 3 peuvent être fixées au même niveau ou à des niveaux différents. De même, au sein d'une même contrelatte 13, les lames 3 peuvent avoir la même longueur ou des longueurs différentes.By referring to figure 2 And 4 , the ceiling 2 with vertical slats 3 comprises contrelattes 13 which are elongated parts each supporting parallel slats 3. Each slat 3 is preferably made of wood and has a parallelepipedic shape. The slats 3 are fixed to the counterlath 13 for example by screwing or by clipping, being parallel to each other, and so that their longitudinal axes are perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of said counterlath 13. When the supporting structure 4 is installed in its operational position in room 1, the contrelattes 13 extend horizontally and the slats extend vertically. Within the same contrelatte 13, the slats 3 can be fixed at the same level or at different levels. Similarly, within the same contrelatte 13, the blades 3 can have the same length or different lengths.

En se référant aux figures 3 et 4, chaque contrelatte 13 présente à chacune de ses extrémités considérées suivant un axe longitudinal de ladite contrelatte 13, une fente 14. Chaque fente s'étend 14 suivant un axe longitudinal de la contrelatte 13 et possède une largeur qui est légèrement supérieure à l'épaisseur d'une plaque d'arrimage 7. Les deux fentes 14 d'une même contrelatte 13 s'étendent l'une vers l'autre en étant alignées suivant le même axe longitudinal de ladite contrelatte 13. Chaque contrelatte 13 possède également à chacune desdites extrémités, un deuxième trou 15 traversant, prenant naissance sur une face supérieure 16 de ladite contrelatte 13 et débouchant dans la fente 14, ledit deuxième trou s'étendant perpendiculairement à ladite fente 14.By referring to figures 3 and 4 , each contrelatte 13 has at each of its ends considered along a longitudinal axis of said contrelatte 13, a slot 14. Each slot extends 14 along a longitudinal axis of the contrelatte 13 and has a width which is slightly greater than the thickness of a stowage plate 7. The two slots 14 of the same counterlath 13 extend towards each other while being aligned along the same longitudinal axis of said counterlath 13. Each counterlath 13 also has at each of said ends, a second through hole 15, originating on an upper face 16 of said counterlath 13 and opening into slot 14, said second hole extending perpendicularly to said slot 14.

En se référant aux figures 2 et 4, chaque contrelatte 13 relie deux plaques d'arrimage 7 consécutives et parallèles, en s'étendant perpendiculairement à celles-ci. Plus précisément, chaque contrelatte 13 est positionnée par rapport auxdites deux plaques 7, de sorte que chacune desdites plaques 7 soit insérée dans une fente 14 et de sorte que chaque deuxième trou 15 de ladite contrelatte 13 soit superposé à un premier trou 12 de chaque plaque d'arrimage 7. La fixation de la contrelatte 13 aux deux plaques d'arrimage 7 s'effectue au moyen de l'insertion d'une goupille 17 dans chaque premier trou 12 et chaque deuxième trou 15 superposés. De cette manière, deux goupilles 17 sont nécessaires pour fixer chaque contrelatte 13 aux deux plaques d'arrimage 7 placées de part et d'autre de la contrelatte 13.By referring to figure 2 And 4 , each contrelatte 13 connects two consecutive and parallel securing plates 7, extending perpendicularly thereto. More specifically, each counterlath 13 is positioned relative to said two plates 7, so that each of said plates 7 is inserted into a slot 14 and so that each second hole 15 of said counterlath 13 is superimposed on a first hole 12 of each plate stowage 7. The fixing of the contrelatte 13 to the two stowage plates 7 is carried out by means of the insertion of a pin 17 in each first hole 12 and each second hole 15 superimposed. In this way, two pins 17 are necessary to fix each counter-batten 13 to the two securing plates 7 placed on either side of the counter-batten 13.

En se référant à la figure 2, les contrelattes 13 sont parallèles entre elles et s'étendent horizontalement en étant perpendiculaires aux deux plaques d'arrimage 7 auxquelles elles sont fixées avec les goupilles 17.By referring to the picture 2 , the battens 13 are parallel to each other and extend horizontally, being perpendicular to the two stowage plates 7 to which they are fixed with the pins 17.

En se référant aux figures 2 et 3, les entretoises 8 sont des tiges rigides, préférentiellement réalisées en métal et qui s'étendent perpendiculairement aux rails 6. Ces entretoises 8 sont fixées aux rails 6 qu'elles traversent, par exemple par des vis et des écrous, et permettent d'assurer une cohésion structurelle à la structure porteuse 4.By referring to figure 2 And 3 , the spacers 8 are rigid rods, preferably made of metal and which extend perpendicularly to the rails 6. These spacers 8 are fixed to the rails 6 which they cross, for example by screws and nuts, and make it possible to ensure structural cohesion to the load-bearing structure 4.
