Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a fixture for attaching building panels such as exterior wall panels and interior wall panels to frameworks, and its main purpose is to securely and firmly attach panels to frameworks with simple manual work. The object of the present invention is to provide an improved fixture for mounting the present invention.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The structure of the present invention will be explained below based on an embodiment shown in the drawings.

In FIG. 1, reference numerals 1 and 1 refer to a wall frame made of, for example, a C channel, and 2 and 2 refer to building panels, for example, exterior wall panels having a structure in which a heat insulating material 3 is sandwiched between two hardboards 4, 4. 5 connects the outer wall panel 2 to the frame 1
This is a mounting bracket for attaching to.

The fixture 5 is, for example, a piece of metal plate bent as shown in FIG. 2, and is a U-shaped bent plate into which the end of the panel 2, that is, the node board end 4a can be loosely inserted. 6, a screw member 7 screwed into a part of the plate piece 6, and an engaging part 8 which can be engaged by fitting into the edge 1a of the circumferential part of the frame.

The U-shaped bent plate portion 6 includes a flat plate portion 6a that makes surface contact with the hardboard 4, an upright plate portion 6b that stands up by a length approximately equal to the thickness of the hardboard 4, and the upright plate portion. 6b and an inclined plate part 6c bent diagonally outward, the inclined plate part 6c is formed with a hole 9 into which the screw member 7 is screwed, and the flat plate part 6a is formed with a hole 9 for inserting a screw member 7 into the hardboard 4. A protrusion 10 for preventing removal is cut and raised.

A normal bolt is used as the screw member 7, and after being screwed into the hole 9, a holding plate 11 having an angular shape is fixed to the tip thereof.

Since this screw member 7 is screwed into the hole 9 of the inclined plate part 6c, its screwing position is also inclined, but the reason why it is inclined in this way is that the adjacent panel 2, as shown in FIG. This is to allow the screw member 7 to be rotated from the outside through the gap t of No. 2 with an operating tool 12 such as a screwdriver.

Further, the presser plate 11 fixed to the tip of the screw member 7 functions to reliably apply a fixing force to the hardboard end portion 4a even when the screw member 7 is in an inclined position.

The screw member 7 and the presser plate 11 may be configured as separate members.

The engaging portion 8 is formed by bending one end of a metal plate into a U-shape so as to have a groove for engaging the edge 1a of the outer periphery of the shaft.

Incidentally, if a c-channel pipe is used as the framework 1 as shown in the illustrated example, the peripheral edge of an opening existing on one side of the channel pipe can be used as it is as the edge 1a of the peripheral part of the framework.

The panel 2 can be attached to the framework 1 using the fixture 5 having the above-mentioned configuration by the following procedure.

First, the engaging portion 8 of the fixture 5 is fitted and engaged with the edge 1a of the peripheral portion of the frame as shown in FIG. 3A.

Next, the hardboard end 4a of the panel 2 is loosely inserted into the bent plate piece 6 as shown in FIG. 2B, and the screw member 7 is tightened to fix it.

In this way, the attachment of the panel 2 to the frame assembly 1 is completed.

In this attached state, a bending moment about the upright plate part 6b acts on the inclined plate part 6c as a reaction force when the tip of the screw member 7 presses the hardboard end part 4a.

This bending moment also acts on the engaging portion 8 via the flat plate portion 6a, so that the engaging portion 8 is more securely engaged with the peripheral edge 1a of the frame.

As explained above, the fixture according to the present invention includes a U-shaped bent plate part into which the end of the panel can be loosely inserted, and a part of the plate part that is screwed into the fixture, and is inserted loosely into the bent plate part. It is composed of a screw member that secures the panel edge, and a locking part that can be fitted and locked to the edge of the frame periphery, so there is no need for the operation of fitting the fixture into the frame and the screw member. The panel can be attached to the frame with the simple operation of rotating the panel to secure the panel end to the fixture, and the panel end can be securely attached to the fixture using screw members. Since the attachment of the fixture to the frame can be made strong based on the pressing force of the tip of the screw member, the panel can be attached simply by hand, and yet it is strong. This has the remarkable effect of making installation possible.
