Definitions

  • a facade cladding including a plurality of panels each spaced between a pair of mushroom-shaped supports, with a clamping strip hooked over the support to clamp the corresponding ends of the panels to the support.
  • This invention relates to a facade cladding, in particular for bungalows, in which panels or lamellae provided with bent or flanged longitudinal rims are held by supports and aims at providing a cladding of this kind which may be rapidly and easily mounted on a facade and nevertheless is firmly secured to this facade.
  • a longitudinal rim of the adjacent panel or adjacent lamella is hooked around the other bent longitudinal rim of the clamping strip after which the clamping strip is pressed over the support or a plurality of supports located in a row, the first-mentioned longitudinal rims forming an articulated connection about which the clamping strip swings when being pressed on the support.
  • the other longitudinal rim of the adjacent lamella is pressed behind the head of the following support or the following row of supports, whereupon again a clamping strip with a next panel or lamella is mounted.
  • the longitudinal rims of the clamping strips have been bent over a larger angle than the longitudinal rims of the panels or lamellae.
  • a satisfactory articulated connection is formed which considerably facilitates the mounting of the facade cladding.
  • the radius of curvature of the bent longitudinal rims of the panels or lamellae is larger than the radius of curvature of the bent longitudinal rims of the clamping strips. This results in a linear contact between the bent longitudinal rims of the panels or lamellae and the bent longitudinal rims of the clamping strips thus preventing the capillary action which occurs in the case of a surface contact.
  • the supports may present the shape of a mushroom arranged on a supporting strip or supporting plate, the dimensions of the supports being such that each bent longitudinal rim of the panels or lamellae rests on the one hand on the strip or plate and on the other hand against the underside of the head of a mushroom-shaped support.
  • the supports may be strip-shaped as well as block-shaped. In the latter case a plurality of supports is arranged each time in a row, a clamping means gripping around said row of supports.
  • clamping strips are narrow a strop clamping action is obtained. If desired these clamping strips may have a different colour than the panels or lamellae.
  • FIG. 1 is a cross-section of this facade provided with a cladding.
  • FIG. 2 shows on an enlarged scale a portion of said cladding.
  • FIG. 1 show part of a wall 1 provided with a cladding.
  • supports 2 with the interposition of supporting plates or supporting strips 3.
  • the supports 2 are mushroom-shaped and may be strip-shaped as well as block-shaped. If they are block-shaped, a plurality of supports is arranged each time in a row.
  • a panel or lamella 4 has been provided which comprises bent longitudinal rims 5.
  • the supports 2 and the plates or strips 3 are of such construction and such dimensions as to allow the longitudinal rims 5 to rest on the one hand on the plates or strips and to lie on the other hand against the underside of the hands of the mushroomlike supports 2.
  • clamping strips 8 engage with the bent longitudinal rims 5 of the panels or lamellae 4 so that said clamping strips 8 cover the supports 2 and the bent longitudinal rims 5 of the panels or lamellae 4.
  • the clamping strips 8 are preferably manufactured from somewhat resilient material.
  • the bent longitudinal rims 6 and 7 of the clamping strips 8 have been bent or curled up over a larger angle than the longitudinal rims of the panels or lamellae 4, whereas the radius of curvature of said longitudinal rims 6 and 7 is smaller than the radius of curvature of the bent longitudinal rims 5. Consequently the longitudinal rims 6 and 7 will contact the longitudinal rims 5 onl according to a line so that moisture entering between these longitudinal rims will not or substantially not be entrained by capillary action which certainly would happen if the bent rims would contact each other according to a large surface.
  • clamping strips 8 have been chosen so large that these clamping strips enclose the heads of the supports 2 with clearance. In this way a satisfactory ventilation between the supports and the clamping strips is obtained.
  • the portions of the panels or lamellae 4 situated between the bent rims 5 are located at a small distance from the wall 1 so that also between these panels or lamellae and the wall a satisfactory ventilation occurs. If the panels or lamellae would only be supported With their rims by the plates or strips 3 these panels or lamellae might deflect. In order to prevent this deflection supporting strips 9 or supporting members of other construction may be provided between these panels or lamellae and the wall.
  • the facade cladding described above is mounted in the following manner.
  • the supports 2 with the supporting strips or supporting plates 3 are provided correctly interspaced.
  • a panel or lamella 4 for example the rectangularly bent lamella 4 is arranged between the supports 2, the bent edges of this panel or this lamella 4 being firmly clamped between the supporting strips or supporting plates 3 and the head of the mushroom-shaped supports 2.
  • a facade cladding in particular for a bungalow, comprising a plurality of stationary supports having a substantially mushroom-shaped cross section and having recesses in their opposite sides, a plurality of shape retaining panels each having curved longitudinal rim portions held in the recesses of two adjacent supports and a plurality of substantially U-shaped clamping strips of slightly resilient material and being arranged with their web portions above corresponding supports, the legs of said clamping strips being directed towards the panels, said legs having longitudinal inwardly curved rim portions, each of the rim portions of each strip gripping into one of the curved longitudinal rim portions of two adjacent panels with a convex surface of each strip rim portion seated in and bearing against a concave surface of a respective panel rim portion, the curved longitudinal rim portions of the panels and of the clamping strips being bent over such an angle that said curved longitudinal rim portions of the panels and of the clamping strips may be hingedly hooked together and the heads of the supports being chamfered so that the interengaged longitudinal rim portions of the clamping
