Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to an insulated panel mounting system for building structures and, more particularly, to insulative panels which maintain their mounted position when exposed to high temperatures.
- Homeowners and businesses often desire to finish rooms, such as basements or above-ground rooms, in a manner which provides a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere.
- basements are constructed of common methods including cinder block walls or poured concrete walls. Left unfinished, cinder block or poured concrete basement walls can allow humidity into the basement, and also allow the loss of heat through the basement walls.
- basement walls have been finished by known methods including attachment of wood studs to the basement walls and subsequent attachment of a wall surface, such as drywall or paneling, to the wood studs. Insulation such as glass fiber insulation batts have been placed between the basement wall and the wall surface before attachment of the wall surface to the wood studs, or a granular or loose-fill fibrous insulation is poured or blown into the spaces between the basement wall and the wall surface after the wall surface is attached to the wood studs.
- a known method of finishing a room involves the use of insulative panels releaseably connected to installed frame members as developed by the assignee herein, Owens Corning, and as described in the Weir et al. U.S. Pub. No. 2004/0219853 A1 for a “Room Finishing System”, and the Hettler et al. US Pub. No. 2005/0150183 A1 for an “Insulation System with Variable Position Vapor Barrier” which are expressly incorporated herein by reference.
- the insulative panels were better capable of maintaining their mounted position within the frame members when the insulation finishing system is exposed to a high temperature exposure test.
- An insulation finishing system includes a plurality of lineals fixed to a building structure.
- the lineals include lineal partitions which protrude from the building structure and which define primary insulation cavities.
- a plurality of primary insulation panels are positioned within the primary insulation cavities.
- a plurality of trim pieces fix the primary insulation panels within the primary insulation cavities.
- the primary insulation panels are provided with an interference fit with the lineal partitions.
- a method of finishing a building structure includes attaching a lineal to the building structure, the lineal including a lineal partition which protrudes from the building structure to create an initial primary insulation cavity, positioning a primary insulation panel against the lineal partition using hand applied pressure to effect an interference fit with the lineal partition, positioning a subsequent lineal against the positioned primary insulation panel to effect another interference fit between the positioned primary insulation panel and the subsequent lineal partition, attaching the subsequent lineal to the building structure; and connecting trim pieces to the lineals thereby fixing the primary insulation panels within the primary insulation cavities with an interference fit.
- a method of finishing a building structure further including attaching an adapter to a lineal, the adapter including an adapter partition which protrudes from the lineal partition to create an initial secondary insulation cavity, positioning a finish insulation panel against the adapter partition using hand applied pressure to effect an interference fit with the adapter partition, positioning a subsequent adapter against the positioned finish insulation panel to effect an interference fit between the positioned finish insulation panel and the subsequent adapter partition, attaching the subsequent adapter to the lineal and connecting trim pieces to the adapters thereby fixing the finish insulation panels within the secondary insulation cavities with an interference fit.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view, partially broken away, of a finishing system.
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a lineal and a trim piece for a finishing system.
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a finishing system taken along the line 3 - 3 in FIG. 1 .
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a lineal, adapter and trim piece for a second embodiment of the finishing system.
- FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the second embodiment of the finishing system.
- an insulation finishing system 10 for finishing a room.
- an insulation finishing system 10 is shown installed on a building structure 12 .
- the building structure 12 will be generally referred to as a wall 12 ; however, it is to be understood that it is within the contemplated scope of the present invention that the building structure can include ceilings and other building structures.
- the wall 12 may be any type that one might desire to finish, either in a residential or a commercial building.
- the room may include more than one wall and may also include a floor (not shown) and a ceiling (not shown).
- the wall 12 may have windows and doors therein, (not shown).
- the insulation finishing system 10 includes a plurality of lineals 20 which create primary insulation cavities 16 , as shown in FIG. 3 , when installed on the wall 12 .
- the lineals 20 are preferably made from a plastic material, but the lineals 20 can be made of metal or any other material suitable to be installed on a wall 12 and create primary insulation cavities 16 .
- the lineals 20 attach to the wall 12 in a suitable manner.
- the lineal 20 is attached to the wall 12 with suitable fasteners 14 ; however, in other embodiments, the lineal 20 can be affixed to the wall 12 with a suitable adhesive material or any other mechanism which provides attachment to the wall 12 . or embedded into the wall, such as within a poured concrete wall.
- the insulation finishing system 10 further includes primary insulation panels 50 .
- the primary insulation panel 50 may be made of any type of insulation known to those of skill in the art, such as, but not limited to, fiberglass insulation, a fiberglass board, rock wool board, polymer or natural fiber board, mineral board, or a foam board. Typical densities of the fibrous insulation panels 50 will be in the range from about 2 to 15 pounds per cubic foot (pcf), although other densities can be used.
- the foam may be formed of extruded polystyrene, molded polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, phenolic foam, polyurethane, or other similar foam insulation products.
- a board that can be used is a 700 Series glass fiber insulation board available from Owens Corning.
- a 703 Series board having a density of at least about 3 lb/ft 3 can be used.
- Such glass fiber insulation boards are composed of glass fibers having a binder thereon which has been cured to bind the fibers into a matrix.
- boards of such bindered glass fibers are relatively rigid, meaning that they generally support their own weight when stood on their end and do not sag by any significant amount when left in such a position for a long period of time.
- the primary insulation panels 50 include a decorative facing 54 attached to the outer surface of the primary insulation panel 50 , as best shown in FIG. 3 .
- the decorative facing provides an aesthetically pleasing and durable cover for the primary insulation panel 50 .
- the facing 54 can be any type of decorative covering, such as fabric or vinyl, suitable to provide an aesthetically pleasing and durable cover for the primary insulation panel 50 .
- the primary insulation panels 50 may be applied in a step-wise fashion until the wall 12 is covered by the primary insulation panels 50 , as will be further explained below.
- the lineal 20 has a lineal base plate 22 which has opposing lineal retaining flanges 22 a and 22 b .
- the lineal 20 also has opposing lineal partitions 24 and 25 which extend from the lineal base plate 22 .
- the use of lineal partitions 24 , 25 additionally helps to reduce the overall cross sectional area of the direct paths of thermal conduction between the wall 12 and the interior of the room, and thus to improve the overall R value of the finished system.
- the opposing lineal partitions 24 and 25 define a receiving channel 26 for engaging the trim piece 40 , as will be further explained below.
- the lineal partitions 24 and 25 allow a releasable engaging connection to be formed between the lineal 20 and the trim piece 40 .

- the interference fit between the primary insulation panels 50 and the lineal partitions 24 , 25 is a key element in allowing the insulation finishing system 10 to resist heat when the insulation finishing system 10 is exposed to high temperatures, such as in heat exposure testing.
- Resisting heat is defined to mean a period of time, at a defined temperature, before the component softens so as to become unusable for its intended purpose.
- Heat exposure tests such the 300° F. Air Temperature Exposure Test under the Standard Building Code (SBC—Section 893.9.4) and Uniform Building Code (UBC—Section 802.1), require that the primary insulation panels 50 will not become detached when subjected to a room temperature of 300° F. for 30 minutes.
- Most removable panel systems include the use of plastic polymer components, such as brackets and trim pieces, which soften when exposed to temperatures over 240° F. Some plastic polymer components can even resist temperatures up to 250-260° F. through the use of chemical additives, although even these components will typically soften at temperatures above 260° F.
- the plastic polymer components can be directly exposed to heated air if there are gaps between the components and the insulation panels. This can hasten the softening of the components. Softening of the plastic polymer components allows the removable panels to fall from their mounted positions, thereby failing a heat exposure test.

- the trim connector 43 prevents heated air from entering the receiving channel 26 , thereby insulating the lineal 20 . By insulating the lineals 20 from the heated air, the trim piece 40 prolongs the time before the lineal 20 softens due to the heat exposure and therefore allows the primary insulation panels 50 to maintain their installed position on the wall 12 during the heat exposure test.
- the insulation finishing system 10 includes an interference fit between the end portion 51 of the primary insulation panels 50 and the lineal partitions 24 , 25 within the insulation cavity 16 .

Abstract
Description
- This application is a continuation-in-part of co-pending application, U.S. Ser. No. 11/008,060 filed Dec. 09, 2004 which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. This application is also related to commonly assigned U.S. patent application entitled “Panel Mounting System For Reaction-To-Fire Test Applications”, filed on the same date, which is incorporated herein by reference.
- The present invention relates generally to an insulated panel mounting system for building structures and, more particularly, to insulative panels which maintain their mounted position when exposed to high temperatures.
- Homeowners and businesses often desire to finish rooms, such as basements or above-ground rooms, in a manner which provides a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere.
- Most basements are constructed of common methods including cinder block walls or poured concrete walls. Left unfinished, cinder block or poured concrete basement walls can allow humidity into the basement, and also allow the loss of heat through the basement walls. Traditionally, basement walls have been finished by known methods including attachment of wood studs to the basement walls and subsequent attachment of a wall surface, such as drywall or paneling, to the wood studs. Insulation such as glass fiber insulation batts have been placed between the basement wall and the wall surface before attachment of the wall surface to the wood studs, or a granular or loose-fill fibrous insulation is poured or blown into the spaces between the basement wall and the wall surface after the wall surface is attached to the wood studs.
- A known method of finishing a room involves the use of insulative panels releaseably connected to installed frame members as developed by the assignee herein, Owens Corning, and as described in the Weir et al. U.S. Pub. No. 2004/0219853 A1 for a “Room Finishing System”, and the Hettler et al. US Pub. No. 2005/0150183 A1 for an “Insulation System with Variable Position Vapor Barrier” which are expressly incorporated herein by reference.
- It would be advantageous if the insulative panels were better capable of maintaining their mounted position within the frame members when the insulation finishing system is exposed to a high temperature exposure test.
- An insulation finishing system includes a plurality of lineals fixed to a building structure. The lineals include lineal partitions which protrude from the building structure and which define primary insulation cavities. A plurality of primary insulation panels are positioned within the primary insulation cavities. A plurality of trim pieces fix the primary insulation panels within the primary insulation cavities. The primary insulation panels are provided with an interference fit with the lineal partitions.
- According to this invention there is also provided a method of finishing a building structure. The method includes attaching a lineal to the building structure, the lineal including a lineal partition which protrudes from the building structure to create an initial primary insulation cavity, positioning a primary insulation panel against the lineal partition using hand applied pressure to effect an interference fit with the lineal partition, positioning a subsequent lineal against the positioned primary insulation panel to effect another interference fit between the positioned primary insulation panel and the subsequent lineal partition, attaching the subsequent lineal to the building structure; and connecting trim pieces to the lineals thereby fixing the primary insulation panels within the primary insulation cavities with an interference fit.
- According to this invention there is also provided a method of finishing a building structure, according to the preceding paragraph, the method further including attaching an adapter to a lineal, the adapter including an adapter partition which protrudes from the lineal partition to create an initial secondary insulation cavity, positioning a finish insulation panel against the adapter partition using hand applied pressure to effect an interference fit with the adapter partition, positioning a subsequent adapter against the positioned finish insulation panel to effect an interference fit between the positioned finish insulation panel and the subsequent adapter partition, attaching the subsequent adapter to the lineal and connecting trim pieces to the adapters thereby fixing the finish insulation panels within the secondary insulation cavities with an interference fit.
- Various objects and advantages will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description of the various embodiments, when read in light of the accompanying drawings. It is to be expressly understood, however, that the drawings are for illustrative purposes and are not to be construed as defining the limits of the invention.

insulation finishing system 10 for finishing a room. With reference toFIG. 1 , aninsulation finishing system 10 is shown installed on abuilding structure 12. For ease of explanation herein thebuilding structure 12 will be generally referred to as awall 12; however, it is to be understood that it is within the contemplated scope of the present invention that the building structure can include ceilings and other building structures. Thewall 12 may be any type that one might desire to finish, either in a residential or a commercial building. The room may include more than one wall and may also include a floor (not shown) and a ceiling (not shown). Thewall 12 may have windows and doors therein, (not shown). - The
insulation finishing system 10 includes a plurality oflineals 20 which createprimary insulation cavities 16, as shown inFIG. 3 , when installed on thewall 12. As shown inFIG. 1 , thelineals 20 are preferably made from a plastic material, but thelineals 20 can be made of metal or any other material suitable to be installed on awall 12 and createprimary insulation cavities 16. - The
lineals 20 attach to thewall 12 in a suitable manner. In certain embodiments, thelineal 20 is attached to thewall 12 withsuitable fasteners 14; however, in other embodiments, thelineal 20 can be affixed to thewall 12 with a suitable adhesive material or any other mechanism which provides attachment to thewall 12. or embedded into the wall, such as within a poured concrete wall. - The

The foam may be formed of extruded polystyrene, molded polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, phenolic foam, polyurethane, or other similar foam insulation products. - In certain embodiments, if a fibrous insulation board is used, a board that can be used is a 700 Series glass fiber insulation board available from Owens Corning. In particular, a 703 Series board having a density of at least about 3 lb/ft3 can be used. Such glass fiber insulation boards are composed of glass fibers having a binder thereon which has been cured to bind the fibers into a matrix. For densities above about 2.25 lb/ft3, boards of such bindered glass fibers are relatively rigid, meaning that they generally support their own weight when stood on their end and do not sag by any significant amount when left in such a position for a long period of time.

Preferably only hand applied pressure is necessary to effect an interference fit between theend portion 51 of theprimary insulation panel 50 and thelineal partition 24. Following installation of theprimary insulation panel 50, a subsequent lineal 20 is pressed against the installedprimary insulation panel 50, again using only hand pressure, and the subsequent lineal 20 is fastened to thewall 12 usingappropriate fasteners 14. This procedure is followed until thewall 12 is covered by theprimary insulation panels 50. In certain installations, a temporary clip, such as a scrap part of a lineal 20 and/or trimpiece 40, can be used to hold theprimary insulation panel 50 within theprimary insulation cavity 16 during the sequential installation ofsubsequent insulation panels 50. - In a certain embodiment, the interference fit between the
primary insulation panels 50 and thelineal partitions FIG. 1 . Alternatively, the interference fit between theprimary insulation panels 50 and thelineal partitions - As shown in
FIG. 3 , thetrim retaining flanges insulation finishing system 10 is assembled, theprimary insulation panel 50 is located within theprimary insulation cavity 16. Thus, thebase plate 42, with itsflanges trim piece 40, holds (or retains) theprimary insulation panel 50 within theprimary insulation cavity 16. - In certain embodiments, the
primary insulation panel 50 has a certain thickness. It is to be understood that the R-values of theprimary insulation panel 50 may be determined for a particular geographic region. - As shown in
FIG. 3 , theprimary insulation panel 50 is positioned within theprimary insulation cavity 16 so that there is an interference fit between theend portion 51 of theprimary insulation panel 50 and thelineal partitions end portion 51 of theprimary insulation panel 50 and thelineal partition end portion 51 of theprimary insulation panel 50 and thelineal partition end portion 51 of theprimary insulation panel 50 and thelineal partition lineal partition end portion 51 of theprimary insulation panel 50 andlineal partition 24 is achieved during the installation of theprimary insulation panels 50 by hand applied pressure applied to theprimary insulation panels 50 and also applied to the subsequently installedlineals 20. This procedure has the advantages of eliminating the installation steps of sizing, measuring and cutting theprimary insulation panels 50. But, an interference fit between theend portion 51 of theprimary insulation panels 50 and thelineal partitions primary insulation panels 50, or by installing thelineal partitions 24 spaced a distance apart based on the width of theinsulation panels 50 so as to create a cavity with a width which creates the desired interference fit. - The interference fit between the
primary insulation panels 50 and thelineal partitions insulation finishing system 10 to resist heat when theinsulation finishing system 10 is exposed to high temperatures, such as in heat exposure testing. Resisting heat is defined to mean a period of time, at a defined temperature, before the component softens so as to become unusable for its intended purpose. Heat exposure tests, such the 300° F. Air Temperature Exposure Test under the Standard Building Code (SBC—Section 893.9.4) and Uniform Building Code (UBC—Section 802.1), require that theprimary insulation panels 50 will not become detached when subjected to a room temperature of 300° F. for 30 minutes. Most removable panel systems include the use of plastic polymer components, such as brackets and trim pieces, which soften when exposed to temperatures over 240° F. Some plastic polymer components can even resist temperatures up to 250-260° F. through the use of chemical additives, although even these components will typically soften at temperatures above 260° F. The plastic polymer components can be directly exposed to heated air if there are gaps between the components and the insulation panels. This can hasten the softening of the components. Softening of the plastic polymer components allows the removable panels to fall from their mounted positions, thereby failing a heat exposure test. Theinsulation finishing system 10 overcomes these problems through the interference fit of theprimary insulation panels 50 and thelineal partitions end portions 51 of theprimary insulation panels 50 and thelineal partitions lineal partitions lineals 20 from the heated air, the interference fit of theprimary insulation panel 50 and thelineal partition primary insulation panels 50 to maintain their installed position on thewall 12 during the heat exposure test. - Additionally, as previously discussed, the
trim piece 40 includes atrim connector 43 that is configured to fit within the receivingchannel 26 of the lineal 20. Thetrim piece 40 is another important element in allowing theinsulation finishing system 10 to maintain the position of theprimary insulation panels 50 when thesystem 10 is exposed to high temperatures during the heat exposure test. Specifically, thetrim connector 43 prevents heated air from entering the receivingchannel 26, thereby insulating the lineal 20. By insulating thelineals 20 from the heated air, thetrim piece 40 prolongs the time before the lineal 20 softens due to the heat exposure and therefore allows theprimary insulation panels 50 to maintain their installed position on thewall 12 during the heat exposure test. - In summary, the
insulation finishing system 10 includes an interference fit between theend portion 51 of theprimary insulation panels 50 and thelineal partitions insulation cavity 16. The interference fit, which when combined with the insulating properties of thetrim piece 40, ensures that the lineals 20 will resist softening due to heat exposure longer than would otherwise be the case, and theprimary insulation panels 50 will maintain their installed positions when theinsulation finishing system 10 is exposed to high temperatures during heat exposure testing. - In another embodiment, the
insulation finishing system 10 includeslineal adaptors 30 that createsecondary insulation cavities 18, as shown inFIGS. 4 & 5 , when connected to thelineals 20. As shown inFIGS. 4 & 5 , thelineal adaptors 30 are a plastic material, but thelineal adaptors 30 can be made of metal or any other material suitable to be connected to the lineals 20 and createsecondary insulation cavities 18. - As shown in
FIG. 4 , thelineal adaptor 30 has opposingadaptor partitions adaptor base plate 32. The opposingadaptor partitions adapter receiving channel 36 for engaging thetrim piece 40, as will be explained below. In certain embodiments, theadaptor partitions lineal adaptor 30 and thetrim piece 40. -
FIG. 4 also shows thelineal adaptor 30 including anadaptor base plate 32 with opposingadaptor retaining flanges lineal adaptor 30 also has aconnector member 33 which extends from a bottom side of theadaptor base plate 32. Theconnector member 33 can have any desired shape so that theconnector member 33 can fit within thelineal receiving channel 26. In the embodiment shown, theconnector member 33 has generallyconvex walls - Referring again to
FIG. 5 , eachlineal adaptor flange insulation finishing system 10 is assembled, theprimary insulation panel 50 is located within theprimary insulation cavity 16. Thus, thebase plate 32, and itsflanges lineal adaptor 30, holds (or retains) theprimary insulation panel 50 within theprimary insulation cavity 16. - In certain embodiments, one or more of the
adaptor partitions detents trim piece 40 to thelineal adaptor 30. Theadaptor base plate 32 can include at least one break-away notch 39 that extends along the intersection of the adaptorbase retaining flange 32 a and theadapter partition 34. The break-away notch 39 allows the installer to easily remove theadaptor retaining flange 32 a so that thelineal adaptor 30 can be installed in a corner or other area such as against a window or door (not shown). - When the
lineal adaptor 30 is connected to the lineal 20, theadaptor connector 33 is positioned within thelineal receiving channel 26 of the lineal 20. In certain embodiments, theadaptor connector 33 snaps into thelineal partitions adaptor connector 33 releasably retains thelineal adaptor 30 in engagement with the lineal 20. For example, thelineal adaptor 30 can be snapped into the lineal 20 such that, if necessary, thelineal adaptor 30 can be removed without damage to the lineal 20 or thelineal adaptor 30 itself. It is to be understood, that in another embodiment, the releasable connection between the lineal 20 and thelineal adaptor 30 can be achieved by a fast-release or other type of connector. Additionally, thelineal partitions lineal adaptor 30 and thetrim piece 40. - The
insulation finishing system 10 further includes a plurality offinish insulation panels 70 having a decorative facing 74 attached to an outer surface of thefinish insulation panels 70. When installed, thefinish insulation panel 70 is located in thesecondary insulation cavity 18. - The
finish insulation panels 70 may be made of any type insulation known to those of skill in the art, such as, but not limited to, fiberglass insulation, a fiberglass board, rock wool board, mineral board or a foam board. Typical densities of thefinish insulation panels 70 will be in the range from about 2 to 15 pounds per cubic foot (pcf), although other densities can be used. The foam board may be formed of extruded polystyrene, molded polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, phenolic foam, polyurethane, or other similar foam insulation products identified by one of skill in the art. - The decorative facing 74 can be any type of decorative covering, such as fabric or vinyl, suitable to provide an aesthetically pleasing and durable cover for the
finish insulation panels 70. - In certain embodiments, a
vapor retarder 60 is positioned near or adjacent to theprimary insulation panel 50 after a plurality of theprimary insulation panels 50 are positioned in theprimary insulation cavity 16. Thevapor retarder 60 may be a sheet of plastic film (e.g., polyethylene, nylon, or a rubber membrane (EPDM)) or a foil (e.g., aluminum foil)) having a low vapor permeance or other known vapor retarder material. When installed, as shownFIG. 5 , afirst portion 62 of thevapor retarder 60 is secured within the receivingchannel 26 of the lineal 20, as explained below. Asecond portion 64 is positioned close to, or in certain embodiments, against, theprimary insulation panel 50. - The
vapor retarder 60 is placed over theprimary insulation panel 50 and the lineal 20. In certain embodiments, thevapor retarder 60 is at least slightly stretched during the installation process. In a similar manner, to that explained above with respect to theprimary insulation panels 50, thevapor retarder 60 can be held in place by the temporary clip/scrap section while the rest of thevapor retarder 60 is installed. - The
lineal adaptors 30 are then connected to thelineals 20 such that theadaptor connector 33 inserts thefirst portion 62 of thevapor retarder 60 into the receivingchannel 26 of the lineal 20, as best seen inFIG. 5 . - The
finish insulation panels 70 are placed into thesecondary insulation cavities 18. In a similar manner with respect to the installation of theprimary insulation panels 50, a part of a lineal adaptor and/or trim piece can be used to hold thefinish insulation panel 70 within thesecondary insulation cavity 18 during the sequential installation of the rest of thefinish insulation panels 70. Thetrim pieces 40 are then attached to thelineal adaptors 30 to complete theinsulation finishing system 10. Thelineal adaptors 30 allow thevapor retarder 60 to be easily removed without damage, if necessary, by unsnapping thelineal adaptor 30 from the lineal 20. - In certain embodiments, the
primary insulation panel 50 has a first thickness and thefinish insulation panel 70 has a second, different thickness. It is to be understood that the R-values of theprimary insulation panel 50 and thefinish insulation panel 70 may be determined for a particular geographic region. - In a similar manner as discussed earlier with respect to the
primary insulation panels 50, thefinish insulation panels 70 are installed in a step-wise fashion until theprimary insulation panels 50 are covered. An initiallineal adaptor 30 is connected to a lineal 20, thereby forming an initialsecondary insulation cavity 18. An initialfinish insulation panel 70 is positioned in the initialsecondary insulation cavity 18, such that theend portion 71 of the initialfinish insulation panel 70 is pressed against theadaptor partition 34 using hand applied pressure. Only hand applied pressure is necessary to affect an interference fit between theend portion 71 of thefinish insulation panel 70 and theadaptor partition 34. Following installation of the initialfinish insulation panel 70, a subsequentlineal adaptor 30 is pressed against the installedfinish insulation panel 70, again using only hand pressure, and theadaptor connector 33 is connected to an installed lineal 20. This procedure is followed until theprimary insulation panels 50 are covered by thefinish insulation panels 70. In certain installations, a temporary clip, such as a scrap of a lineal 20 and/or trimpiece 40, can be used to hold thefinish insulation panels 70 within thesecondary insulation cavities 18 during the sequential installation of the subsequentfinish insulation panels 70. - In a certain embodiment, the interference fit between the
finish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions FIG. 5 . Alternatively, the interference fit between thefinish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions - As shown in
FIG. 5 , thetrim retaining flanges insulation finishing system 10 is assembled, thefinish insulation panels 70 are located within thesecondary insulation cavity 18. Thus, thebase plate 42, with itsflanges trim piece 40, holds (or retains) thefinish insulation panel 70 within thesecondary insulation cavity 18. - As shown in
FIG. 5 thefinish insulation panels 70 are positioned within thesecondary insulation cavity 18 so that there is an interference fit between theend portion 71 of thefinish insulation panel 70 and theadaptor partitions end portions 71 of thefinish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions end portion 71 of thefinish insulation panels 70 and thepartition adapters end portions 71 of thefinish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions adapter partitions lineals 20. The interference fit between theend portions 71 of thefinish insulation panels 50 and theadapter partitions finish insulation panels 70 by hand applied pressure applied to thefinish insulation panels 70 and also applied to the subsequently installedlineal adapters 30. This procedure has the advantages of eliminating the installation steps of sizing, measuring and cutting thefinish insulation panels 70. But, an interference fit between theend portions 71 of thefinish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions finish insulation panels 70. In such an instance, the width of thecavity 18 is less than the width of thepanel 70. The degree of interference is adequate to enable passage of the heat exposure testes, and may differ based on the density of the board, the materials of the board, or the nature of the edge of the board and/or the trim pieces. In some instances, an interference of 0.005″ or less may suffice, and in other instances, an interference fit of 0.125, 0.25, 0.375 or 0.5 inches or more may be necessary, but this is determined based on the nature of the overall system. Additionally, it may be advantageous to provide projections extending from the edge of the lineals to engage thepanels 70 to improve the interference fit. - The interference fit between the
finish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions insulation finishing system 10 to resist heat when theinsulation finishing system 10 is exposed to high temperatures, such as in heat exposure testing. As discussed previously, resisting heat is defined to mean a period of time, at a defined temperature, before the component softens so as to be unusable for its intended purpose. Theinsulation finishing system 10 provides heat resistance through the interference fit of theend portions 71 of thefinish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions adapter 30 to the lineal 20. Specifically, the interference fit between theend portions 71 of thefinish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions adapter partitions lineals 20. The interference fit thereby insulates theadapters 30 and thelineals 20 from the heated air. By insulating theadapters 30 and thelineals 20 from the heated air, the interference fit of theend portions 71 and thefinish insulation panels 70 and theadapter partitions adapters 30 and the lineal 20 soften due to the heat exposure and therefore allows theprimary insulation panels 50 and thefinish insulation panels 70 to maintain their installed position on thewall 12 during the heat exposure test. - Additionally, as previously discussed, the
trim piece 40 includes atrim connector 43 that is configured to fit within the receivingchannel 36 of theadapter 30. Thetrim piece 40 is another important element in allowing theinsulation finishing system 10 to maintain the position of theprimary insulation panels 50 and thefinish insulation panels 70 when thesystem 10 is exposed to high temperatures during the heat exposure test. Specifically, thetrim connector 43 prevents heated air from entering the receivingchannel 36 of theadapter 30, thereby insulating theadapters 30 and thelineals 20. By insulating theadapters 30 and thelineals 20 from the heated air, thetrim piece 40 prolongs the time before the lineals 20 soften due to the heat exposure and therefore allows theprimary insulation panels 50 and thefinish insulation panels 70 to maintain their installed position on thewall 12 during the heat exposure test. - While the invention has been described with reference to a preferred embodiment, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the essential scope of the invention. In addition, many modifications may be made to adapt a particular situation or panel to the teachings of the invention without departing from the essential scope thereof. Therefore, it is intended that the invention not be limited to the particular embodiment disclosed as the best mode contemplated for carrying out this invention, but that the invention will include all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims.
