Description

Tubular Lattice

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a lattice tubular, that is to say a lattice in which the lamas adopt a tubular configuration, which can be regardless of section rectangular, isoscelic trapezoidal section, rhomboid section, etc.

The object of the invention is to achieve a latticework of remarkable structural simplification and very easy assembly, so that as a result it also results extraordinarily economical

The latticework that is recommended is of the type of which are used as a "visual" enclosure, for concealment of clotheslines and similar, for the decoration of facades.

Background of the invention

Leaving aside other types of lattice that do not they come to the case, one of the commonly used types is that in the one that lattice lamas, which constitute the visual barrier proper, they adopt a tubular structure, so that once mounted to the corresponding support they adopt parallel arrangements substantially close to the horizontal or with a certain inclination, and they are equidistant and arranged horizontally.

These lattices are usually made of aluminum, although they can also be obtained based on other materials Metallic, and even plastic.

In any case in the complete structure of a lattice vertical uprights intended to be fixed to the facade or wall in question, preferably by screwing, materialized in profiles whose side walls are slightly extended forward, (although it may be prolonged only one of them), defining on the front face of each profile a rectangular groove of low depth, at the bottom of which they are fixed by screwing a kind of configuration "tweezers" sharply in "U", so that its laterally deformable branches allow the pressure coupling of the tubular slats, which must present a convergent configuration in its rear zone, to facilitate assembly, regardless of the configuration of your previous zone.

Generally these "tweezers" form groupings of three or more elements obtained by cutting at the expense of an indefinite length profile, so that not only it is necessary to carry out the screwing operation of such tweezers to the support, but also need to fragment into pieces this constitutive profile of the multiple clamps, all of which supposes a remarkable complexity of manipulation, which makes the assembly of these lattices is considerably expensive, in addition to the possibility of design for the tubular slats.

Description of the invention

The tubular lattice proposed by the invention solves the problem fully satisfactorily previously exposed, determining a drastic lowering of costs, especially in the assembly operations of the same.

For this and according to the characteristic essential of the invention, the classic clamps disappear for fixing of the slats, so that the latter are coupled directly to the vertical uprights fixed in turn to the facade. The intermediate supports or clamps of fixing of the slats, with the consequent economic savings that supposes, but fundamentally with the saving that supposes not having to carry out the operation of screwing such supports to the uprights

To achieve this effect, it is expected that vertical uprights, in addition to the aforementioned extensions front of its side walls, present the free edge of such extensions angled orthogonally inwards, configuring a strangled groove groove, in whose edges are set facing alignments of small recesses that, grouped in pairs, allow interlocking direct from the slats, provided in turn with short extensions orthogonally or harpoon-tipped backs for interlocking in said recesses.

Despite this orthogonal flange or bending internal side walls may not exist, in which case the walls are reinforced by a greater thickness of them, and also the vertical uprights can have only one of the aforementioned extensions, preferably in a centered arrangement on his front face.

More specifically, the recesses are of "L" configuration, with its branches aligned opposite, while in each strip a rigid orthogonal finish is defined or stable, for being in a situation very close to the tubular body of the slat, and a harpoon-tipped end at the end of a special fin of the tubular body of the slat and of length enough to be easily deformable in the interlocking maneuver to the corresponding amount.

It is also provided that this deformable fin be placed down in the mounting position, so that it works compression due to the effect of the weight of the slat, resulting in impossible accidental or accidental decoupling of said the MA.

Obviously the divergence of this fin can be achieved by forming a sharply sharp angle with the body tubular, or in the latter defining a lower echeloning and intermediate, whose amplitude can be variable depending on the durability that is intended to give the extrusion die of the the MA.

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 a partial view in perspective of one of the vertical uprights that participate in the Tubular latticework object of the present invention.

Figure 2.- Shows a detail in section cross section of the amount of the previous figure.

Figure 4.- Shows, finally, and on a vertical upright like the one in figure 1, several lattice slats appearing in different mounting positions, progressively advanced in the direction of descent.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

In view of the figures outlined you can be observed as in the tubular lattice that the invention proposes a plurality of vertical uprights (1) participate, such as the represented in figure 1, in which a tubular core participates (2) attachable to a facade or other appropriate wall through its back face (3), while its side walls, in the exemplary embodiment depicted in the figures, are prolonged sharply forward, defining a "U" groove (4), especially visible in Figure 2, the edges being also  free of these lateral and frontal extensions (5) provided of inward orthogonal couplings (6) that stiffen substantially said edges.

The vertical uprights (1) complement each other directly with the lamas (7) of the lattice, obviously tubular, which adopt a general section configuration isoscelic trapecial, very stylized, with extensions back with orthogonal finials (8) and harpoon tip (9) towards the outside, being these extensions (8-9) intended to be embedded in small recesses (10) operatively established on the front edge free of the lateral extensions (5) of the uprights (1), to whose effect the recesses (10) adopt a configuration corrugated, to receive orthogonal auctions (8) and to the harpoon tip (9) mentioned.

In order to improve the fixing conditions it is envisaged that the extensions finished in harpoon (9) are likely to approach or distance elastically from other subsequent extensions (8), for which said auction in harpoon (9) is established on the free edge of a fin (11) of considerable amplitude, as seen in figures 3 and 4, of so that the fin's own amplitude (11) allows the necessary elastic deformability of the same, for the assembly of the blade on the vertical uprights (1), as shown in the figure Four.

There are different solutions to achieve the independent fin (11) repeatedly cited, such as that it emerges from the tubular core (7) of the plank at the middle level of the lower base thereof, configuring with said tubular core a sharply sharp angle, which is eliminated when it occurs the final interlocking of the lama, as shown in the last sequence or lower sequence of said figure 4, but for reasons the fin (11) can be further separated from the core tubular (7) of the slat, as shown in figure 3, where they have been established two levels of separation in the two sections that reflect the same, through staggered (12) tubular core (7), of considerably different amplitude. In this same figure 3 a third embodiment has been represented for the slat, in which the tubular core (7) is fragmented in two by a partition intermediate partition (13), setting up a sector (7 ') later or closer to the remaining vertical uprights opened by a small opening postero-inferior (14) that confers to the fin (11) due elastic flexibility, in this case collaborating said fin in the conformation of the tubular core of the profile.

However, nothing more is being said about certain examples of practical realization, since philosophy Functional coupling of the slats to the vertical uprights allows a wide range of design possibilities for these slats (7), which still having the basic structuring mentioned, can present their rounded front and free edge, they can present a rhomboidal profile or any other aesthetic configuration that Allow your structure.
