Definitions

  • This invention refers to a device for panel fastening, and more specifically, an automatic lock system aimed for fastening of coating panels on frameworks of ferromagnetic materials, such as iron or steel.
  • panels or baseplates feature a means to permit a stable fastening in the back side, which feature the possibility of being removed from the panel in order to permit the access. These panels and plates are called accessible.
  • the panel features a series of hooks which allows them to be hung from the framework, so that gravity keeps the panel in its place.
  • the main problem is that these panels can move accidentally, mainly due to clearance and gaps, and therefore, they are not steadily fastened to the framework, and in some occasions they can be unwillingly removed, thus causing an accident.
  • the panel fastening device which is the object of this invention, has some technical features with the aim of permitting an ideal use as a means for panel and plate fastening on metal frameworks, so that panels or plates conceal the supporting frameworks, improving the fastening of the panels and plates and making it easier to be subsequently removed with a simple magnetic tool.
  • the device comprises a baseplate and a latch with a hook protruding from one side of the baseplate, and this latch can be longitudinally moved along the referred baseplate.
  • Both parts, the baseplate and the latch are manufactured of a non-ferromagnetic material, and the referred latch features a magnet or a magnetic part. So, this magnet moves the latch towards a closing position on the baseplate when the panel to be fastened approaches a ferromagnetic element, such as a metal framework for supporting roof or wall panels.
  • a ferromagnetic element such as a metal framework for supporting roof or wall panels.
  • This fastening is steady and resistant in all directions, and it permits to easily disassemble the panel with a magnetic tool or key, which deactivates the referred devices. Therefore, as the magnetic key passes on the device, its magnetic attraction forces the latch into the opening position, and removes the book from the framework.
  • the baseplate features a displacement lock of the latch in its free movement, thus avoiding an accidental disassemble of both parties.
  • the latch is set up in a laminar bodywork, longitudinally die-cut and folded, with some gaps in the inside part to hold the magnet between them, and a folded part which sets up the emerging hook is located at the end of the latch.
  • the baseplate features some holes in its corners, in order to fasten the device with screws or other means to the panel or plate to be fastened.
  • FIG. 1 shows a section view of the device.
  • FIG. 2 shows an elevation view of the device.
  • FIG. 3 shows a ground view of the device when closed.
  • FIG. 4 shows a section detail of the assembly of a panel on a framework with the device of the invention.
  • the device comprises a baseplate ( 1 ) and a latch ( 2 ) with a hook ( 21 ) emerging on one side of the baseplate ( 1 ), and this latch ( 2 ) is longitudinally movable on the referred baseplate ( 1 ).
  • the baseplate ( 1 ) and the latch ( 2 ), are manufactured on a non-ferromagnetic material, in this case aluminium, and the latch ( 2 ) comprises a magnet ( 3 ) or a magnetic part, so that such magnet ( 3 ) permits the movement of the latch ( 2 ) towards a closing position on an element of a ferromagnetic metal framework ( 4 ) when the panel is set in the assembling position and the magnet approaches the metal framework.
  • the latch ( 2 ) is manufactured in a rectangular laminar bodywork die-cut and folded, with some gaps ( 22 ) in the inside part to hold the magnet ( 3 ), and a folded part which sets up the emerging hook ( 21 ).
  • the baseplate ( 1 ) longitudinally defines a guiding means ( 11 ) of the latch ( 2 ) and features a displacement lock ( 12 ) of the latch ( 2 ) preventing its free movement.
  • the baseplate ( 1 ) features some holes ( 13 ) in its corners, in order to fasten the device with screws or other means to the panel ( 5 ), and the latch ( 2 ) is held in a notch ( 51 ) of the referred panel ( 5 ) on which it is fastened, and the free emerging hook ( 21 ) until it is assembled on the framework ( 4 ).
