Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a means for fastening tiles, and particularly glazed tiles to a base.
  • the invention contemplates using a fixture for each tile.
  • the present invention has for its main object to provide a simple method for fastening tiles to a base and which involves the use of a fixture for each tile. By this arrangement it is not necessary to consider variations in the outer dimensions of the tiles and moreover the present invention aids very materially in fastening the tiles to the base.
  • the fixture which receives each tile is in the form of a frame conforming in shape to a tile and the fixture is fastened to a base or floor and the tile is thereafter fastened to the fixture. It is also possible in some cases to fasten the tile to the fixture and thereafter fasten the fixture to the base. In a case where the fixture is first fastened to the base, such attachment can be done by the use of nails, screws or glue. In cases where the tile is first fastened to the frame or fixture, it is then possible to use glue for fastening down the frame or fixture and especially a glue of the kind intended for securing tiles, such glue being generally known as a cement.
  • the fixture is provided with one or more guiding walls for the tile, such walls being upstanding from the base portion of the fixture.
  • the tile is fastened to the fixture to use such guiding surfaces in such a way that the glue or cement reaches the end surface or edge of the tile, which surface is moved to contact with the guiding surfaces on the fixture.
  • the method for fastening a plurality of tiles adjacent to each other and using a fixture for each tile is substantially as follows: When a frame or fixture and its tile are fastened onto the base, an adjacent fixture and its tile are fastened onto the base in a similar manner.
  • each fixture is provided with one or more locating devices, and one locating device for a fixture is intended to cooperate with a complementary element on 3,520,095 Patented July 14, 1970 ice the adjacent fixture.
  • the fixture has two guiding surfaces and a plurality of the tiles are placed adjacent to one another by the use of such fixtures, one or more contact surfaces on the tiles will cooperate with a guiding surface on the fixture.
  • a separate joint band or edging strip may be arranged.
  • FIG. 1 shows the fixture in plan view
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken substantially on the line 22 of FIG. 1, looking in the direction of the arrows,
  • FIG. 3 shows a section of a separate guiding strip and FIGS. 4 and 5 show another embodiment of a fixture.
  • the fixture in the form shown, is in the form of a rectangular frame having four side bars shown respec tively at 1a, 1b, 1c and 1d which cooperate in forming a base surrounding a central opening.
  • the frame corresponds in shape to the form of the tile intended for use with said fixture.
  • the tile is preferably of the form and shape of the so-called glazed tile.
  • the parts 1a, 1b, 1c and 1d of the fixture are provided with a plurality of holes 2 intended for the fastening of the fixture to the base or floor 3, by the use of nails 4, extended through the holes and into the base as shown in FIG. 2. Screws might also be used for the purpose or the fixture may also be fastened by glue, cement or other adhesive.
  • the frame or fixture has two upstanding guiding surfaces one of which is shown at 5 on the part 1a and the other shown at 6 on the part 1d.
  • the tile, not shown in the drawing is rested on the parts 1a to 1d and one of the edges of the tile fits closely against the guiding surface 5 and another of the edges of the tile fits closely against the guiding surface 6.
  • the guiding surfaces 5 and 6 are arranged perpendicularly to each other and form guiding strips 5a, 6a.
  • Each of the guiding strips 5a and 6a has a height to correspond to the thickness of the tile.
  • Each guiding strip is on each side shaped to provide a guiding surface and serves as a joint between two adjacent tiles.
  • the part 1b has a locating device or lug 11 and the part 10 has a similar locating element or lug 12.
  • the guiding strip 5a is formed with a recess 51 and the strip 6a is formed with a similar recess 61.
  • the lugs 11 and 12 are intended to fit into the reccesses 51 and 61 in an adjacent fixture when two of the fixtures are disposed in side-by-side relationship.
  • the tiles have special locating means and in such cases the guiding surface 5 and the guiding strip 5a may have recess 52 and the guiding surface 6 and the guiding band 6a may have a recess 62.
  • the parts of the fixture or frame which are not provided with guiding surfaces or walls may co-operate with a separate guiding strip such as shown at 711' in FIG. 3 in which case the guiding surface 7 will be placed close to the edge of a tile.
  • the separate edging strip 7a may have recesses 71 for co-operation with the lugs 11 and 12.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 show an other embodiment of a fixture, where the same parts as shown in FIG. 1 have been given the same reference number.
  • each bulging 7 is a recess 7b which is more in detail and in a larger scale shown in FIG. and it is suitable to let said recess 717 have such a form that the bulging 7 has essentially the same thickness as the rest of the part 1a.
  • the upper part of the bulging 7 shall be placed above the upper plane of the part 1a a distance 50-150% of the thickness of the part 1a.
  • the upper value may be set to 100%.
  • the fixture or frame is intended for receiving a tile and that the fixture will thus be of a form and shape corresponding to the form and shape of the tile which it is to receive.
  • the fixture may have six edges if the tile to be accommodated is similarly shaped.
  • cement intended for use with glazed tiles is used, the cement is placed between the glazed tile and the guiding surfaces of the fixture and a watertight joint will be the result.
  • the fixture might also be shaped to fit glazed tiles with curved corners, curved edge surfaces or the like. Even a special fixture for the edging strip can be used and in such case it will be desirable to provide for no recesses in the guiding parts at the side which will be visible.
  • a mounting device for fastening a tile to a surface comprising:
  • said frame member including a base portion on Which the tile is rested and an upstanding Wall portion against'which the edges of a tile abut,
  • said wall portion comprising two wall sections located along adjacent sides of the frame member against which wall sections two adjacent edges of a tile are respectively abutted
  • said lug and said recess having a structural configuration to interengage with a respective recess and a lug on adjacent frame members when a plurality of the'frame members are placed in juxtaposition, and
