Description

Mechanical fixing device for parts of Large format and reduced thickness on vertical surfaces.

Object of the invention

The present invention aims at a device for fixing plates or large format parts and reduced thickness in vertical walls by lift mechanical or lift and mechanical retention on substructures on light facades with ventilated chamber, where the pieces or plates are fixed vertically in front of the wall on the substructure

It is the object of this invention to provide a device that guarantees the fastening of the plates or pieces of large format through mechanical lift or lift and mechanical retention without the need to install on the parts or plates previously a fixing system, but that is application It is done during the process of placing the pieces or plates.

Background of the invention

Currently the systems or devices of fixing plates or large and reduced thickness pieces intended for the execution of vertical walls, either in direct fixing or arranged at a distance from the wall to covering this mode of execution as the ventilated façade, they can be mechanical, chemical or a combination of both with the in order to keep the plates or pieces to the different elements that make up the support, having these devices to overcome the forces to which the system is subjected, the action of the gravity and wind suction.

Notwithstanding the absence of restraint systems traditional or the difficulty of holding by lift and mechanical retention elements of reduced thickness, in order to prevent the anchors from being visible on the surface of the plate, involve previous machining in the plates for insertion of the fixing device or hold the plates by means of mechanical support and basing retention on fixation chemistry.

In fixing clamps on substructures on ventilated façade the efforts to which the fixing device are basically two, the weight itself and the wind suction, being the lift responsible for overcoming the action of gravity, vertical load, and retention responsible for overcoming the effect of wind suction, mainly tensile load perpendicular to the wall coated.

The difficulty of carrying out a mechanical support and retention without prior machining that alters the stability of the large-format part or plate with reduced thickness, and the absence of satisfactory solutions to solve the existing problem has motivated the development of the present support device and mechanical retention for coating vertical surfaces with large parts or plates
Format.

Description of the invention

To achieve the objective and avoid drawbacks mentioned in the previous sections, the invention proposes a device, set of elements according to its provision in the wall, for mechanical support or lift and mechanical retention of plates or parts, which consists in a clip that, depending on its location, lower, intermediate or higher, you will have blades or tabs with an angle less than 90 degrees that fits the edge geometry of the piece that, either by a previous machining or by the own plate forming method, extrusion, pressing, and have that geometry in which the edge of the piece forms an acute angle to the support plane of the device lift and mechanical retention, in case this angle is of 90 degrees the device will only perform the function of mechanical support, leaving retention to other outside elements to the device, such as chemical retention, application of adhesive on the substructure that performs this function.

The fasteners of the device lift and mechanical retention of parts adapted to the geometry of the piece or plate act as support overcoming the effects of gravity and retains thus avoiding the effect of the suction of the wind, except in the case where the eyelashes form an angle of 90 degrees in which they only support the weight of the piece a pin up.

These staples will be fixed to the substructure at time the pieces or plates are fixed, by using screws inserting them through the holes in the device for that purpose.

Also depending on the location of the clip of fixation in the wall, the eyelashes or shovels will exert a lift and hold function, when the piece rests on them, or only retention, when this tab is in the top of the piece and only prevents tipping.

Based on the referred characteristics, the device presents, among others, the following particularities and advantages:

-

It allows the installation of parts or flat plates in vertical walls with ventilated chamber, and in where said plates can be, among others, ceramic tiles, glass, high pressure laminate, phenolic boards, pieces of polyester resins, concrete compounds, stone natural.

-

Allows its use with substructure vertical, horizontal, etc.

-

Allows lift and hold mechanics without the need for prior machining that can alter the stability of the piece or plate such as grooved at the edge, grooved at the back or drills blind in the back. Machining in case of being only necessary is to modify the angle of the edge or edge of the piece or plate so that it is sharp with the part later of it.

-

Is adaptable to a wide variety of vertical substructures thus allowing any thickness in the ventilated chamber.

-

Ease of extraction and replacement individualized of each piece.

-

Ease of transport of pieces or plates to the destination, as they must not have the fixing device

-

Ease of positioning of the device on the substructure with the consequent securing a regular joint pattern in the cladding of the vertical facing since aligning the staples, the shovel or tab that supports the brand piece or plate perfectly a line in the cladding.

To complement the description that then it will be done and in order to help a better understanding of the features of the invention, by way of example non-limiting, an embodiment of the device lift and mechanical retention of large-format parts or plates  reduced thickness, a descriptive specification is attached set of drawings based on which it will be easier to understand the innovations and advantages of it.
