FR2862996A1 - Stainless steel clip for fixing cornice components to building wall is shaped to engage with upper edge of U-section anchoring block - Google Patents

Abstract

The clip, designed to fasten a cornice member (R) to a U-section anchoring block (A) on the top of a wall, has a section (B) shaped to engage with the upper edge of the U-section block, and two projecting arms (D, E) with ends (F) turned in at rights angles to engage with the cornice member, leaving a V-shaped space (G) that can be filled with a sealing material. The inner end (C) of the clip is fixed in place when the U-section block is filled.

Description

SPECIFIC CLIP FOR REALIZING CORNICES

  The present invention relates to a clip which clings to a U to rationally produce cornices of different materials.

  In the construction, formerly it was only used massive cornices, first stone and then molded cement (so-called reconstituted stone).

  Construction and standards have evolved a lot, new products have emerged on the market. All the current constructions end before the laying of the frame by an armed chaining constituted in part by industrial concrete form said U - fig 1 - or the A part is armed and poured concrete, resulting from this obligation, it appeared on the market of industrial chaining - fig 2 - with an overhanging flaring part which can be of a single part in reconstituted stone or with a reported stone profile which is glued on the inclined bridge fig 2 What is certainly the better on the market, both technically and aesthetically, but still has great difficulties to impose for the following reasons: each element weighs about 50 kg, which, at the time of manufacture with the multitude of manipulations, returns very expensive and on the other hand, there is great difficulty in marketing products outside the region of manufacture in relation to volume and weight, the transport on site costs up to at 1/3 of the selling price.

  On the other hand, the implementation is slow and expensive due to weight and alignment not easy to be perfect. This makes the price of these products in place is too expensive for the mass market, because the price is closer to massive stone than molded cement.

  Regarding the links in reconstituted stone, the aspect is very far from the stone profiles which despite everything, although cheaper have the same problems of weight, laying and transport costs too important.

  The present invention aims precisely to overcome these disadvantages, for this purpose, the invention relates to a clip that clings to the traditional U to make cornices, either industrial reconstituted stone or cut stone profile - fig 1 - . The stainless steel clip of a suitable diameter is designed to catch on the U - fig 5 - by its hook - shaped part provided for this purpose B fig 3-5-7 and its part C - fig 3- 5-7 - designed to be sealed to the concrete filling of part A - fig 5-7 - thus preventing the staple from being raised.

  The part C - fig 3-5-7 allows in raising it to adjust the alignment, in the case where the chaining would not be perfectly aligned. Parts D and E terminate in a perpendicular pin (the parts D and E can be separated from each other and each have their attachment forming two different parts) and D and E of a suitable diameter that will allow the perfect alignment of the cornice elements to maintain - fig 5 and 7 -. The elements to maintain industrially prefabricated include the holes allowing the stud to align them, whatever their shape, some examples fig 6 -.

  It suffices that these elements have holes 6 in the appropriate places, and by inserting the staples at each junction of the elements, we obtain a perfect linear. It remains only to make a small seal at each junction from the inside with a cement glue and also a small seal - H fig 7 - for sealing and when pouring concrete part A, it is filled the part - G fig 7 - which forms a perfectly homogeneous assembly on the part - G fig 7 -, in general it is a place where we put the gutter or a zinc, which allows according to the case to garnish the part G not in concrete but in polyurethane foam. The bottom of the cornice fig 7 rests on the coating I which supports the overhang and ensures tightness.

  At the time of implementation of the staples for making a cornice, Part I Fig 7 is replaced by a ruler. If one used for a realization a cut stone profile - R fig 6 - it is strongly recommended to stick on the back of the fiber cement - J fig 6 and 7 - to ensure a better security for the part F of the staples. Fig 7 shows the position of the staples for the realization of a cornice.

Claims (1)

4 CLAIMS   1. Staple in stainless steel allowing the realization of cornice using the U of chaining as support, this staple is formed by the part B which clings on the field of the U and comprises two arms of a diameter and length appropriate to the form of the profile D and E ending in F of a diameter which may be greater than and perpendicular to D and E, and the part G will be sealed at the casting of the chaining.   2. Clip according to the claim characterized in that the part B is hooked on the field of U. 3. Clip according to claims 1 and 2 characterized in that the portion B is longer and forms an obtuse angle relative to to C thus allowing C to correct the length of D and E for alignment.   4. Clip according to one of claims 1 to 3 characterized in that D and E are terminated by a pin perpendicular thereto.   5. Clip according to one of claims 1 to 4 characterized in that the parts D and E can be dissociated and each independent and ending in the B and C. 6. Clip according to one of claims 1 to Characterized in that part C serves as a seal at the time of casting.
