Description

Improved support block for fixing Omega stands

Scope and prior art

The omega supports, so called due to the shape of its cross section similar to the omega letter of Greek alphabet, are subject to intensive use in the construction and furniture industry in particular by for example, in installations for laying electric cables and similar to support so-called trays or grid channels cable carriers. These supports are formed as profiles bent in L with an omega-shaped cross section and a plurality of elongated grooves provided in its branches and intended for through screws for fixing to a wall, by example, a wall or a ceiling.

To ensure a grip on the wall, strong enough, the screws must be tightened with considerable force so that a deformation of the cross section of the support that damages its functionality

Through document ES U 1045098 a known  support block with a solid quadrangular prismatic body with a central through hole for a fixing screw to the wall and transverse fins, adapted to rest against the walls interiors of the omega profile of cross section and having said prismatic body in its upper part holding triggers in hook shape protruding through elongated holes of the omega profile. Here arises as an inconvenience that the triggers protruding through the elongated hole hinder the Tightening maneuver of the screws used to secure the facing.

It is known from document ES U 1057771 a support block with a solid quadrangular prismatic body with a central through hole for a fixing screw to the wall and transverse fins, adapted to support against inner walls of the cross section omega profile and said support block additionally having side pins  to fit in an additional grooves provided on the sides of the omega profile. Here it arises as an inconvenience that the pins laterals can yield with the force of tightening and that also must provide a modified omega profile with additional slots for the side pins.

Both documents indicate the possibility of arrange a hike piece attached to the pyramidal trunk body by means of flexible strips so that it can be mounted by plug on the lower base of the pyramidal trunk body. Here it arises as an inconvenience that the flexible strips must be configured with an appreciable length so that they can be mounted plugged in its inner part, as a result of which said strips are susceptible to breakage during storage and during handling and can be lost, leaving the main block without piece supplementary; another drawback associated with this provision resides in the plug coupling through bolts and holes that fit into compression, since occluded air tends to separate the prismatic piece and its supplementary rise piece.

Object of the invention

Starting from the state of the art previously described, the invention aims at development of a block of the type indicated at the beginning that allows eliminate or at least alleviate the aforementioned inconveniences.

According to the invention this task is achieved by  according to the characteristics indicated in the claim one.

Be part of a support block for omega supports  what's wrong with it:

-

a body generally pyramidal trunk of rectangular base, adapted to stay inside the omega holder, with a hole through center for an anchor screw to a wall and through a fixing slot provided in the support omega; Y

-

a Supplementary lifting part adapted for coupling, if it is the case, to a supplementary rail on which the cited omega support,

and said support block being characterized according to the invention, because:

-

he pyramidal trunk body is configured with an upper portion neck formed by cylindrical wall segments that extend  around said central hole and being adapted the diameter and height of cylindrical wall segments for fit tightly into the fixing slot of the omega bracket but without sticking out of it;

-

he Pyramidal trunk body is provided with a wide notch longitudinal cross section generally U-shaped, of so that said pyramidal trunk body is cleft longitudinally to increase its transverse flexibility, it is say perpendicular to its longitudinal axis; Y

-

he pyramidal trunk body is configured with a portion of lower pedestal with two lateral branches of general arrangement in parallelepiped shape with respective lateral limbs bevels adapted to fit tightly on the omega profile and additionally having two longitudinal branches of arrangement general parallelepiped that are attached to the trunk body pyramidal through respective hinge bands with thickness of reduced material to flex around them.

Detailed description of a preferred embodiment

As shown especially clear in figure 5, the support block according to the invention, designated in general with reference number 1, is adapted to stay inside the omega SO support, fixed to a Paramento P with an anchoring screw TF through a RF fixing slot provided in the omega holder and that Screw a TA plug arranged in a hole in the wall P. your case, as shown in figure 7, the support block 1 has in its lower part a lifting part 3 adapted for coupling to a supplementary rail RS on which the said can be mounted support omega SO.

Referring now to figures 1 to 4, it can be seen that the support block 1 has a pyramidal trunk body 2 which is configured at its top with a portion of neck 21, said body having a through central hole 20 for the fixing screw TF.

The neck portion 21 is formed by a plurality of cylindrical wall segments 210, preferably four, which extend around said central hole 20. The diameter and height of the cylindrical wall segments 210 are sized to fit tightly in the groove of RS fixation of the omega SO support but without protruding from it as and as can be clearly seen through figures 6 and 7.

In addition the pyramidal trunk body 2 is provided with a wide longitudinal notch 22 section Transverse generally U-shaped. This notch longitudinal 22, longitudinally divide said trunk body pyramidal 2, providing support pad 1 with flexibility increased in transverse direction i.e. in direction perpendicular to its longitudinal axis EL, so that the block of support 1 more adequately withstands the screw pressure of TF fixation when pressed to fix the omega SO support to the wall P.

On the other hand, the pyramidal trunk body is configured with a bottom 23 pedestal portion with two branches sides 230, 230 of general arrangement of parallelepiped with respective beveled side limbs 231, 231 adapted to fit tightly inside the omega (SO) bracket.

In addition, the support block 1 additionally has two longitudinal branches 232, 232 of general arrangement longitudinal. These longitudinal branches 232 are attached to the body pyramidal trunk through respective hinge bands 233, 233 with reduced material thickness to flex around them,  as shown in figures 3 and 4.

As can be seen in figure 7, these branches longitudinal 232, can be folded 180º around their bands of hinge 233 to support against the bottom of the support block 1 and thus provide an increased height of said block when the omega SO support has to be fixed to a rail supplementary RS with the help of a PL plate with a hole for the fixing screw TS.

Hinge bands 233 are formed as an area with reduced material thickness of the branches Longitudinal 232. This configuration allows flexibility enough so that the longitudinal branches can adopt a position rotated 180º against the bottom of the block of support 1, but which is strong enough to not split away from the rest of the support block.

As will be easily understood by the people versed in art, the above described is merely illustrative of a preferred embodiment of the invention so that technical modifications of all are possible nature.

Enough that the object has been described of the invention, it only remains to point out that the embodiments derived from changes in shape, dimensions and the like, as well as those resulting from an application of the above disclosed, they should be considered included in its scope, so that the invention will only be limited by the scope of the following claims.
