Abstract

Panel for false ceiling, of the type structured by a metal grid, characterized in that it involved a plurality of longitudinal rods, diameter between 4 and 5 millimeters and slightly sinuous path, equidistanced in a magnitude between 14 and 15 millimeters, rods that intersect with other transverse rods of equal diameter, also sinuous, but with more accentuated inflections to allow their alternative coupling in either direction to the longitudinal rods, forming these even transversal rods within which rods are spaced a magnitude between 16 and 17 millimeters, while the pairs of rods are in turn separated from each other by a magnitude between 130 and 135 millimeters, panels that are fixed to the floor of the passenger compartment or auxiliary structure by means of properly distributed supports.

Description

Panel for false ceiling.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a panel, of those destined to constitute a false ceiling, established conveniently distanced from the floor or auxiliary structure and determining a housing where different devices such as lighting, air conditioning, public address, equipment anti-fire, are invisible from the breast of the cabin

The object of the invention is to achieve a portable rack capable of staying substantially flat in work situation.

The means of  support of said panels.

Background of the invention

In the field of construction they are known the long ceilings that, conveniently separated from the upper floor or auxiliary structure, they define a camera that hides multiple facilities such as those already mentioned lighting, air conditioning, public address systems, etc.

However, usually the light bulbs, the air conditioning loudspeakers, speakers, etc., are mounted visible form on the false ceiling, in holes or windows operatively practiced for this purpose, which on the one hand complicates considerably its assembly needing an important labor force participation to make such holes or windows, and on the other makes these elements visible from inside the cabin, which in many cases is not desirable for different reasons.

Trying to solve this problem are used very sporadically panels for materialized ceilings in a metal mesh or grid, which hides the aforementioned elements visually, but that nonetheless allows passage through the light, air, sound, etc.

The low impact on the market of this type of panels is determined by the need to make a tightening operation of the meshes after their assembly, to achieve its flatness, which has a very important impact considerable at the cost level, since if such is not done tensioning operation on the panels buckling effects occur determinants of a totally irregular surface.

Description of the invention

The panel for false ceiling that the invention proposes, belonging to the group of those recently cited in the previous paragraph, that is to say those that materialize in a metal mesh or grid, fully resolves satisfactory the aforementioned problem, constituting a self-supporting element, which without the need for tension maintains its flat and primitive configuration in mounting situation.

For this and more specifically said panel It is constituted by a plurality of metal rods longitudinal, with a diameter between 4 and 5 millimeters, with a slightly sinuous trajectory and with a distance between them included between them included in turn between 14 and 15 mm

With these longitudinal rods they cross other transversal ones, of the same diameter, that form pairs with a spacing between 16 and 17 millimeters between each couple and in turn with a distance between 130 and 135 millimeters between pairs, these transverse rods being also of sinuous trajectory, in this case of greater intensity, to alternately go above and below the rods longitudinal, defining a kind of braiding.

For the support or fixing of these panels to the ceiling or auxiliary structure threaded rods are used that by its upper end they are fixed to the ceiling while by its lower end make it to a "U", concavity bracket upper, with a threaded central hole receiving the mentioned rod, this support constituting a support for two panels adjacent, with respect to those acting as support, as a medium of union and as a means of leveling, fixing with the  collaboration of a rectangular plate, which presents a recess on one of its edges, formally and dimensionally suitable to settle on the "U" support around of the threaded rod, plate equipped with a pair of holes screw threads that pass through the branch equally half of the "U" bracket.

These supports are placed at distances of the order 50 centimeters in the transverse direction of the panel, and 75 centimeters in the longitudinal direction.

Description of the drawings

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical realization of it, is accompanied as part member of that description, a set of drawings where with illustrative and non-limiting nature, what has been represented next:

Figure 1.- Shows, according to a view in floor, a panel for false ceiling made in accordance with the object of the present invention.

Figure 2.- Shows a partial detail and enlarged from the previous figure.

Figure 3.- Shows a detailed profile of the previous figure.

Figure 4.- Shows another profile in detail of Figure 2 from an observation point offset 90º with compared to the previous figure.

Figure 5.- Shows a detail in perspective of the exploded view of one of the fixing brackets of the panels to ceiling.

Figure 6.- Shows, finally, a view in lower side perspective of a suspended ceiling made with the panels of the invention.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

In view of the figures reviewed especially of figures 1 to 4, it can be seen as the panel that preconiza is constituted by a plurality of rods longitudinal (1), uniformly distributed, that is equidistant, which in the present case have a distance of 14.6 mm and that describe a path slightly wavy, as shown in figure 3, crossing these rods longitudinal (1) with transverse rods (2) that are grouped by  couples, these rods (2) being the same diameter as the rods (1), with a distance within each pair of 16.4 mm, with a distance between couples of 132.5 millimeters, and with the same diameter of 4.4 millimeters as the rods (1).

These transverse rods (2) have undulations considerably more pronounced than longitudinal (1), to intertwine with the latter as shown in the figure 4, with the ripples of each pair of rods remaining transverse (2) offset in the case of a rod with respect to to the other, to achieve a braiding effect.

The panels so structured can present a width that can reach one and a half meters, and a length that in turn it can reach six meters, although it is planned that preferably and for handling reasons the width is medium meter and the length of three meters, keeping in any case its self-supporting character, that is to say its planarity, suspended from the corresponding supports.

Each support is constituted, as shown Figure 5, by a threaded rod (3) that is fixed by its upper limb and by thread to the floor or real roof of the passenger compartment or auxiliary structure while on its limb bottom makes it to a central hole and threaded a support (4) U-profile and upper concavity, so that at both sides of the threaded rod (3) and inside the support (4) two accommodations are set for a pair of rods marginal (1) of the panel itself, constituting said supports supporting elements for the panels, which also fix them laterally, while the threaded rod (3) allows in turn vary its effective length to position in perfect leveling panels.

The support (4) also incorporates in the sectors sides of its middle branch respective holes for passage of two screws (5), countersunk head in correspondence with the mouth of such holes to get a perfect flush, screws (5) that thread on a plate rectangular (6), which has a recess (7) on one of its edges, formally and dimensionally suitable for settling on the "U" bracket around the threaded rod (3), and which is equipped with a pair of threaded holes (8) for the passage of the aforementioned screws (5).

In this way a false ceiling is achieved that visually it is perfectly flat without the need for tensioning of the panels participating in it, which visually isolates the cabin in which it is mostly installed from the surface Open panels.

Although the present description is being performing based on a panel applicable to the formation of false ceilings, it is clear that this panel is also usable as wall covering or any other type of wall.
