Description

1 85170

The present invention relates to a covering device for the external boarding of houses, which prevents rats and other pests, insects, etc. from falling under the external boarding and corresponds to the type set out in the preamble of the appended claims.

For this purpose, in the past, bar pieces were quite commonly nailed to all the openings 10 which were lowest in the vertical or horizontal boarding. However, this is quite a labor-intensive operation, and in addition, the pieces of the bar prevent ventilation behind the exterior boarding.

NO patent 124 495 discloses a covering device for vertical boarding of houses and comprises a strip, for example a galvanized sheet metal sheet, which is alternately smooth and bent and is intended to be fastened to the lowest nail row of vertical boarding before the outer boarding is fixed in place. The smooth portions of the strip then become inside the inner layer of the outer plank, while the bent portions of the strip 20 are intended to fill the gaps between the inner layer of the outer plank, the outer layer and the bottom row of nails.

However, the solution according to this NO patent has a limited field of application because the strip is practically unsuitable for horizontal boarding at all. Its smooth parts thus do not prevent said pests from entering the outer boarding. For horizontal boarding, the whole strip could of course be made bent, but even then there are difficulties in installation, because the distance between the ribs forming the fastening elements of the strip 30 is then too large, so that the strip bends down in the middle. Such a galvanized sheet metal strip is also difficult to install due to its inherent stretching tendency. Only one strip size can be used for vertical boarding, taking into account the length of the folded and smooth parts, in one of the 2,85170 boarding types due to the different distances between the inner and outer board layers. This, in turn, means, among other things, a larger amount of goods to be stored.

The object of the present invention is to provide a covering device corresponding to the type in question, which can be used in the same form in both vertical and horizontal boarding, regardless of the type of boarding.

This object is achieved by shaping the covering device as described in the characterizing part 10 of the independent claim.

The covering device according to the invention can be used in the same construction in all types of boarding and, in addition, it is easier to put in place than the covering device known from the above-mentioned NO patent.

An exemplary construction of a cover device according to the invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of one part of the cover device unmounted, Figure 2 shows a vertical view of a cover device attached to a vertical board; 4 shows a vertical view of the use of the cover device 25 in horizontal boarding.

Figure 1 is thus a perspective view of a part of an embodiment of the invention. Reference numeral 1 denotes an elongate, strip-shaped cover element with a longitudinal fastening part 2 with holes 3 for fastening parts 30, for example nails, pins, screws, etc., and an operating part 4 bent at an obtuse angle to the fastening part 2. -part 4 prevents pests from entering the inside of the external boarding in a known manner and at the same time ensures ventilation behind the external boarding.

In order to ensure ventilation, there are several transverse slots 5 in the operating part of the cover element behind the outer boarding, arranged at a certain distance from each other.

In the embodiment shown, the slits are edge sections 5 extending to the second longitudinal edge of the cover element 1. According to another construction alternative, the transverse slots 5 may be completely inside the longitudinal edges of the element 1 in the case of a longitudinal, uniform edge portion (at the bottom of the element according to Figure 1) which forms a bridge over the open ends of the slots 5 and closes them.

The use of the covering element 1 in both vertical and horizontal boarding is shown in Figures 2, 3 and 15 4, respectively.

In Figures 2 and 3, which show the vertical boarding, reference numeral 6 denotes a basic wall, number 7 a beam and 8 a fibreboard, and numeral 9 again denotes a bar forming a nailing base for the outer planking and the covering element 1 for the mounting part 2.

The outer board of the vertical boarding is marked with the number 10 and the inner board with the number 11.

When using the holes 3 of the fastening part 2, the cover element 1 is nailed to the ribs 9 before the boards 10 and 11 are nailed.

When making the external boarding, the inner boards 11 press the cover part 1 of the cover element 1 into the ribs 9, as can best be seen from Fig. 2. In the spaces between the inner boards 11, of course, there is no corresponding pinching of the operating part 4 of the covering element 1 30, but the operating part 4 covers said spaces and maintains ventilation through the slots 5 behind the outer boarding. The above-mentioned clamping of the parts of the operating part 4 at the inner boards is less at an obtuse angle between the fixing part 2 of the cover element 35 and the operating part 4.

The use of the covering element 1 in horizontal boarding is shown diagrammatically in Fig. 4. Also in this figure, reference numeral 6 denotes a basic wall, and numeral 7 denotes a beam.

The plates forming the fastening elements of the cover element 1 are denoted in Fig. 4 by the number 9 ', while the mutually parallel boards of the horizontal boarding are denoted by the number 12. The number 13 denotes the vertical slats forming the nailing base of the boards 12.

In horizontal boarding, the original shape 10 of the cover element 1 remains unchanged when the outer boarding 12 is completed, except for the part related to the ribs 13.

The cover element according to the invention is not affected by elongation in the same way as the already known gal-vanized sheet metal strips, and the cover element according to the invention also has considerably higher bending strength than those which avoid undesired downward bending in the middle 60 cm 20 in horizontal boarding.
