Description

DEVICE FOR USE IN RENDERING, PLASTERING AND THE LIKE
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to devices for use in plastering and rendering. In particular the present invention relates to device comprising a profile combined with a mesh or other such sheet with apertures.
Background of the Invention
It is standard building practice to apply a layer of render and/or plaster to a wall so as to give a more attractive finish. When applying a layer of render or plaster to a wall, profiles are typically used at the edges of an area of render or plasterwork in order to provide a clean, usually straight, finish thereto.
Various shapes of profile are available, each of which is designed for a particular situation. These profiles range from a basic stop profile, which essentially gives a straight edge to plaster, to a corner profile, which provides a corner finish where two planes of plaster (or render) meet.
Sometimes, when rendering exterior walls, a fibreglass mesh is required within the layers of render in order to add strength and help prevent cracking. However, traditionally when plastering interior walls no mesh is generally required between the layers of plaster. The mesh also ensures that the profile is securely mounted on a wall, and as such is useful in plastering, rendering and other associated trades.
It is common for both a profile and mesh to be used together when rendering a wall, such products, which comprise of a permanently attached mesh/sheet, are well known. Typically the mesh is either glued or heat welded onto the profile in a permanent manner. Of course in situations where no mesh is necessary profiles on their own can be used.
Summary of the Invention
In some situations it is considered beneficial to have the option to attach a mesh to the product for certain applications, therefore allowing the applicator to decide whether or not to use the attachable mesh depending upon the job being carried out. Of course the option of using the product without attaching the mesh will be exercised when no mesh is required. One of the principal benefits of the present invention is the provision of a device that is versatile enough to be used in either manner mentioned above.
The present invention provides a device for use in plastering, rendering or the like, said device comprising: a profile for providing a straight edge on a wall being rendered, plastered or the like, said profile having at least one sheet engaging means; at least one mesh or other sheet with apertures for permitting plaster, render or like to bond therewith, said sheet having at least one profile engaging means located adjacent to an edge of the sheet, and wherein said profile engaging means are removably attachable to the sheet engaging means.
Preferably the sheet cannot be detached once the device has been rendered onto a wall.
Preferably the profile engaging means and the sheet engaging means have shapes that are complementary to one another. In this way the profile engaging means and the sheet engaging means can facilitate a connection between the profile and the sheet.
Preferably the profile engaging means may comprise at least one clip securely fixed to the sheet. Further preferably the profile engaging means may comprise a single clip that extends along the sheet adjacent to an edge thereof.
Preferably the sheet engaging means may comprise at least one slot into which the profile engaging means are receivable.
Preferably the sheet engaging means may be integral with the profile.
Preferably the profile may have a constant cross-sectional shape along the entire length thereof. Alternatively, both the sheet engaging means and the profile engaging means may be non-continuous, such that sheet engaging means and the profile engaging means can be slid into communication with one another.
The present invention also provides a profile for use in plastering, rendering or the like, said profile comprises at least one mesh engaging means that is removably engageable with at least one mesh. Preferably the profile comprises an elongate member of uniform cross-section.
The present invention also provides a mesh or other sheet with apertures, such comprising at least one profile engaging means this is removably attachable to a profile. Preferably the profile engaging means comprise at least one clip.
Brief Description of the Drawings
Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the figures, wherein: Figure 1 a shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of the stop' profile of the device of the present invention; Figure 1 b shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of the device of the present invention as comprised of the stop' profile shown in figure 1 a with the mesh attached thereto; Figure 2a shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of the bellcast' profile of the device of the present invention; Figure 2b shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of the device of the present invention as comprised of the bellcast' profile shown in figure 2a with the mesh attached thereto; Figures 3a shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of the movement joint' profile of the device of the present invention; Figure 3b shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of the device of the present invention as comprised of the movement joint' profile shown in figure 3a with the mesh attached thereto; and Figure 4 shows a device of the present invention as comprised of a corner' profile with the mesh attached thereto.
Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments
The device of the present invention, which combines a profile and a mesh or other such sheet with apertures, can have a wide range of forms because of the numerous profile types used in plastering and rendering. The terms plastering and rendering are considered to interchangeable within the context of the present invention.
So that the present invention might be better understood some examples of profiles types that fall within the scope of the present invention will now be described with reference to the figures. It is of course appreciated that the following list of examples is not exhaustive.
Figure 1 a shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of a stop' profile 1 for use in the present invention. The stop' profile 1 is provided with a slot 2. Figure 1 b shows the same views of the stop' profile 1 when attached to a mesh 3. The mesh 3, which might alternatively be any other sheet with apertures therein without departing from the present invention, is provided with a clip 4 at one edge of the mesh 3. The clip 4 is securely fastened to the mesh 3 by means of joining at the point of extrusion which encapsulates the mesh into the PVC clip. The mesh 3 could also be connected to the clip 4 by means of gluing or heat welding.
The clip 4 is shaped so as to be snugly received within the slot 2 of the profile 1. It is appreciated that advantageously a moderate amount of force would be required to push the clip 4 into the slot 2. However it is considered advantageous to the present invention that the application of a similar amount of force would enable the clip 4 to be removed from the slot 2, thus providing a secure, yet temporary, fastening between the clip 4 and the slot 2.
Figure 2a shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of a bellcast' profile 5 for use in the present invention. The bellcast' profile 5 is provided with a slot 6. Figure 2b shows the same views of the profile 5 when attached to a mesh 3. Once again the mesh 3 is securely yet removably attached to the profile 5 by the interaction of the clip 4 and the slot 6 in the profile 5.
As the shape of the slot 6 in the bellcast' profile 5 is different to that in the stop' profile 1 shown in Figures la and ib, the clip 4 used in each situation may have a different shape which is complementary to the appropriate slot.
Figure 3a shows a side view and a cross-sectional view of a movement joint' profile 7, which is essentially constructed from two stop' profiles 1 joined by a flexible joint 8. Figure 3b show the same views of the profile 7 attached to two meshes 3.
Figure 4 shows a corner' profile 9 mounted on a corner section of wall 10. The corner' profile 9 is provided with two slots 11. Each slot 11 is capable of receiving a clip 4 thereby enabling a mesh 3 or other sheet with apertures to be applied to both faces of the wall 10.
The preceding figures show devices comprising various types of profile and at least one sheet (e.g. mesh) attached by way of a push fit between a continuous slot in the profile and a continuous clip fixed to the mesh or sheet, however alternative arrangements are appreciated.
In one alternative, which does not depart from the essential concept of the present invention, both the slot of the profile and the clip of the sheet are non-continuous. In other words there are gaps in the clip and slot periodically spaced therein along the length of the profile and the sheet. Such an arrangement would enable the multiple clips to be lined up with the multiple slots and then slid, rather that pushed, into communication with one another.
Further advantageously each slot might have an abutment at one end thereof such that the clips can only slid a set distance until they abut with the slots.
The profiles of the present invention could be either made from extruded/rolled or fabricated metal (such as aluminium/galvanised steel or stainless steel) or extruded plastic (such as PVC).
The mesh or other sheet with apertures of the present invention might also be formed from metal, plastic or fibreglass as is appropriate. The skilled person will appreciate that the material used to make the mesh can be varied without departing from the concept of the present invention.
The most suitable material for the clip is plastic, and preferably PVC, because of the need for the clip to be resilient yet flexible. However this does not mean that other materials such as aluminium/galvanised steel/stainless steel or rubber could not be used as an alternative.
