Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a fixture for fixing panels for interior and exterior use in buildings, and for example, to a fixture for fixing panels to studs.

Traditionally, nails or screws are used to secure panels to studs. However, with this method, the heads of nails and screws are exposed on the surface of the panel, so after installation, the nail heads must be treated with putty, and then sprayed with paint or pasted with cloth, which is a time-consuming process. had such drawbacks. Furthermore, once fixed, the panel could not be removed or reattached when it became necessary to change the position of the wall as a movable partition, or when it was necessary to remove the panel for replacement. As another method, panels can be attached by covering the left and right panel joints with presser edges, but there are many demands for walls against which the left and right panels can be pressed without exposing the presser edges.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks by using removable fixing fittings.
The present invention will be described in detail below using examples.

1 to 4, a removable fastener 1 of the present invention is used to fasten panels 3, 4 to studs 2 that are generally channel-shaped. The stud 2 consists of a bottom plate 5, side plates 6, 6 bent at right angles from the bottom plate 5, and flanges 7, 7 extending from the side plates 6, 6 in a direction close to each other. 8 is bent toward the bottom plate 5. An opening 9 is formed between the flanges 7 and 7 of the stud 2, and the opening 9 is connected to the hollow part 10 of the stud 2.
It communicates with Panels 3 and 4 consist of flat plates;
The end portion is bent at a right angle and the tip is folded back to form a locking piece 11. The thickness of the fixing fitting 1 of the present invention is
Approximately U with steel plate etc. with elasticity of about 0.1mm to 0.5mm
It is shaped like a letter. The fixing fitting 1 includes a bottom piece 12 that is slightly curved inward, rising pieces 13, 13 rising from both sides of the bottom piece 12 and extending and sloping so that their tips are spaced apart from each other, and the rising pieces 1.
3, 13 Step portions 14, 14 that are bent at approximately right angles to form locking portions; and step portions 14, 14 that rise approximately perpendicularly from the step portions 14, 14, are further folded back inward, and extend linearly so that their tips approach each other. It consists of inclined pieces 15, 15, and bent pieces 16, 16 that are bent from the inclined pieces 15, 15 in the direction of the bottom piece 12 and extend linearly.
The fixture 1 can be fitted into the hollow part 10 of the stud 2, and when the bottom piece 12 is fitted, the bottom piece 12 becomes flat due to the inward deflection of the upright pieces 13, 13.
The stepped portions 14, 14 are locked to the tips 8, 8 of the flanges 7, 7 of the stud 2. Between the inclined pieces 15, 15 and the bent pieces 16, 16, there is a pair of locking pieces 1 which abut the ends of the panels 3, 4 and have a T-shaped cross section.
1 and 11 are inserted so that the locking pieces 11 and 11 can be held.

To fix the panels 3 and 4, the fixing fitting 1 is inserted from the bottom piece 12 side through the opening 9 at a predetermined position of the stud 2. At the time of this insertion, the rising pieces 13, 13 are pushed inward while sliding between the tips 8, 8 of the flanges 7, 7, and the curved bottom piece 12 is pressed against the inner side of the bottom surface of the stud 2, becoming flat and rising. Piece 13,1
3 is curved outward, and the step portions 14, 14 are locked to the tips 8, 8 of the flanges 7, 7. At this time, since the bottom piece 12 comes into pressure contact with the bottom plate 5 side, the fixture 1 is fixed at a predetermined position on the stud 2 without vertically sliding. Furthermore, when the rising pieces 13, 13 bend outward, the bending points 17, 17 of the bent pieces 16, 16 come into contact with each other. In addition, this bent piece 16,
16 has a shape that gradually opens toward the bottom plate 12. Similarly, other fixtures 1 are also fitted in other predetermined positions. Next, when the locking pieces 11, 11 provided at the butt ends of the panels 3, 4 are inserted between the inclined pieces 15, 15, the bent pieces 16, 16 are pushed outward. When the locking pieces 11, 11 are pushed in to the end, the bent pieces 1 are attached to the locking pieces 11, 11.
A pressing force is applied by 6, 16, and the locking pieces 11, 1
1 is retained. Furthermore, the ends of the bent pieces 16, 16 are slightly raised from the bottom piece 12, and the rising pieces 13, 1
It comes into contact with the inner surface of 3. This fixes the panels 3 and 4. That is, the elastic force applied inward to the bent pieces 16, 16 and the fact that the tips of the bent pieces 16, 16 are in contact with the inner surfaces of the rising pieces 13, 13 produce a synergistic effect, and the panels 3, 4 It prevents it from coming out and will not come out unless a certain amount of force is applied. When removing the panels 3 and 4, it is sufficient to apply force in the direction of separating the panels 3 and 4 from the studs 2. The locking pieces 11, 11 push the bent pieces 16, 16 and the inclined pieces 15, 15 outward, and the inclined pieces 15,
Get out of 15. As shown in FIG.
7 are in contact with each other. In this way, the panel can be attached and detached many times.

As explained above, in the present invention, the fixing metal fitting 1 is fitted onto the stud 2, and the bent pieces 16, 1 of the fixing metal fitting 1 are
Since the locking pieces 11, 11 of the panels 3, 4 are held between the panels 6, the panels 3, 4 can be easily fixed to the studs 2. This invention does not use nails or screws like conventional methods, so there is no need for spraying paint or pasting cloth after construction, and panel installation can be easily completed with a single touch. Moreover, even if the position of a wall in a movable partition is changed or if panels are replaced, panels can be attached and detached any number of times. In addition, the bottom piece 12 of the fixture 1 is pressed flat with the bottom plate 5 of the stud 2, and the stepped portions 14, 14 are pressed and locked to the tips 8, 8 of the flanges 7, 7, so the fixture is fixed without coming off. It remains as it is. Due to the synergistic effect of the inward elastic pressure of the bent pieces 16, 16 and the abutment of the tips of the bent pieces 16, 16 against the inner surfaces of the rising pieces 13, 13, the panel will not fall off unless a certain amount of pulling force is applied. It can't happen. In addition, especially in the case of a wall on a ship, the fixing bracket 1 does not slide even when there is strong shaking that occurs constantly, and the elasticity of the fixing bracket 1 that holds the panel always restores the panel's swinging motion, so the panel joints are not pushed against each other. can be maintained. Further, the inclined piece 15,
15 is opened outward as a V-shaped groove, it is easy to insert the locking pieces 11, 11 of the panel using this V-shaped groove as a guide, and the bent pieces 16, 16 can be easily inserted. Since it is tilted so as to be gradually opened toward the bottom plate 12, the locking pieces 11 of the panel,
A force that attracts the panel 11 toward the bottom plate 12 always acts to absorb backlash, and the panel is always fixed. Further, the locking pieces 11, 11 are bent pieces 16,
16, making it easy to remove the panel.

Note that instead of the stepped portions 14, 14, protrusions 18, 18 cut and raised in a semicircular shape on the side surfaces of the rising pieces 13, 13, or protrusions 19 cut and raised at right angles, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, are used. 19 or rising piece 13,1
3 may be provided with bent protrusions 20, 20 from both ends thereof. By rounding the bending points 17, 17, the locking pieces 11, 11 of the panels 3, 4 can be easily inserted, and they will not shift from each other. By making the fixture 1 long, the locking pieces 11, 11 of the panel may be held over the entire panel.
In addition to fixing the panels 3 and 4 to the studs 2, the present invention can be applied to a wide range of applications, such as fixing a ceiling panel to a roof edge having the same shape as the studs 2.
