Description
(54) ARRANGEMENT FOR FIXING WALL OR CEILING PANELLING
(71) I, KURT TRANKER, an Austrian
Citizen, of 7022 Schattendorf, Bahnhofstrasse 13, Austria, do hereby declare the invention for which I pray that a patent may be granted to me, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the following statement:
This invention relates to an arrangement for fixing wall or ceiling panelling, consisting of slotted panels or strips disposed adjacent one another with a gap left between them, said gap being covered by a cover strip.
In known systems of this kind, the panelling is fixed by means of sectional strips fitted to the wall or ceiling and having slots on the sides facing the panels to enable the latter to be slid into the same. Since simply sliding the panels in does not ensure a reliable hold, leaf springs have also been fitted loosely into the grooves to press the panels to one side. If, as also already proposed, the slots are made deeper on one side and the leaf springs are inserted on that side, the panels need not be inserted or removed over the entire length of the slots and instead they can first be engaged in the deeper slot and, after compression of the leaf springs, be engaged in the shallower slot as well.A disadvantage of this latter system is, on the one hand, that the provision of two slots of different depths is relatively expensive and, on the other hand, assembly of the strips must be carried out very exactly, since otherwise the panels cannot be introduced or, if the spacing is excessive, fall out. Another important disadvantage of the known systems of this kind is that it is very difficult to replace individual panels, for example, in the event of damage, because usually the cover strips are also damaged in these conditions and have to be replaced.
According to the present invention I provide a mounting device, for fixing to T slotted members on a wall or ceiling wainscoting consisting of panels or strips provided with grooves in their side edges disposed in side-by-side relationship with a gap left between them, said gap being covered by a cover strip, said mounting device being characterized by holders each having two pairs of tabs, one pair adapted for insertion into said T slot, the other pair spaced from said one pair and adapted for insertion into the said grooves of two adjacent panels or strips and to which holders said cover strip is detachably fixed.
The invention will be more fully understood from the description given below with reference to preferred embodiments shown diagrammatically by way of example in the figures of the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a cross-section through a fixing system of the invention,
Figure 2 is a cross-section through a variant,
Figures 3 and 4 are cross-sections through other embodiments,
Figure 5 is another variant of the holder, and
Figure 6 shows another exemplified embodiment of the holder and cover strip.
In all Figures like parts carry identical references.
Referring to Figures 1 to 4 T slotted members 3 which may consist of wood (Figures 1 and 4), metal (Figures 2 and 3) or plastics have a slot 4 that is undercut and they are provided for fixing wall or ceiling panelling 1 in the form of panels, sheets, or the like, which are provided with slots 2, to a wall or ceiling.
Holders 5 are inserted into the slot 4 of the slotted sectional strip and also consist of metal (Figures 1, 3, 4) or plastics (Figures 2, 5, 6) and their height, measured perpendicularly to the drawing plane, is equivalent at maximum to the width of the slot 4. In the embodiments shown in Figures 2, 5 and 6, the holders 5 consist, more particularly, of portions of an extruded plastics section.
The holders 5 have one pair of tabs 6 that engage the undercut of the slot 4 and another pair of tabs 7 that is spaced from said one pair by a distance d3 and that extend substantially parallel to the wall or ceiling and on to which the panels 1 are slid laterally. A gap of width dl remains between the panels 1 in these conditions, the gap width dl being equivalent to or narrower than the width d2 of the slot 4.
The holders 5 are of a width such that they can turn in the slots 2 and 4 through 90 , so that the tabs 6 and 7 are parallel to the slot 4.
The connection between the panel 1 and the strip 3 is thus released and the panel 1 can at all times be removed from or installed at different places along the wall or ceiling.
Cover strips 8 detachably secured to the holders 5 are provided to cover the gap between two panels 1. The holders 5 are specially constructed for this purpose.
Referring to Figure 1, the'holder 5 has two resilient projections 9, it being possible for the complete holder to be made from spring steel.
The projections 9 converge towards their free ends. The cover strip 8 is provided with recesses 10 adapted to these projections, such recesses preferably being appropriately saw-cut slots, and a wedge 11 between the recesses 10.
To fix the panelling 1, the sectional strip 3 is first fitted to the wall or ceiling, and then the panel is pressed against the sectional strip 3, the holder 5 is introduced through the slot 4 into the strip 3, and turned through 90" then the tabs 7 are pushed into the groove of the first panel. The second panel can then be slid on laterally. Finally, the cover strip is pressed on from outside, the wedge 11 moving the flexible projections 9 apart and towards the recesses 10. As the cover strip 8 is pressed home further, the projections 9 fully enter the recesses 10 and retain the cover strip 8 by their spring action.
In Figure 2 a holder 5 has two projections 9 extending substantially vertically to the wall or ceiling and each is provided with teeth at one side (but clearly serrations, ribs or similar projections may be provided and in use with a metal holder the projections 9 may be corrugated or otherwise roughened). A cover strip 8 is formed with appropriate recesses 10 in the form of parallel slots in which the projections 9 engage on the fitting of the cover strip 8 to clamp the said cover strip with a frictional engagement.
In Figure 3 a cover strip 8 is magnetically retained. For this purpose, a holder 5 consists of magnetizable material and is provided with a web 5A substantially parallel to the wall or ceiling 2. A magnet 12 is provided on the cover strip 8 and the latter is attached to the web 5A of the holder 5 by means of magnet 12.
In Figure 4, a cover strip 8 is made narrow so that a recess 8A remains.
In Figure 5 a holder 5 comprises a single projection 9 which is substantially vertical to the wall or ceiling in the fitted state and which holder has teeth or serrations on both sides of projection 9 at 9A and 9B to clamp a cover strip.
Figure 6 shows a variant of the magnet fixing system of Figure 3 in which web 5A of a holder 5 is itself constructed as a magnet, while a portion 12 of magnetizable material in the form of a small iron washer is screwed to the
cover strip 8 and co-operates with the magnet.
To facilitate the release of a cover strip 8, the washer 12 is chamfered at the ends, particularly
when the washer 12 is fitted into a recess in the cover strip 8 (see Figure 3).
