FIG.9
I m I GRID CEILING This invention relates to a grid ceiling, comprising a plurality of grids arranged side by side, constituted by crossing strips, and supporting means for said grids which are suspended with the aid of suspension devices and aims at providing a grid ceiling of this kind which may easily and inexpensively be manufactured and rapidly and easily assembled, while it can be adapted to the dimensions of any ceiling and presents a pleasing appearence.
This is accomplished with the grid ceiling according to the invention in that said supporting means comprise a supporting structure constituted by section beams,
preferably channel beams, extending in longiudinal and transverse direction of the ceiling, the legs of which are provided with slots with which the ends of crossing grid strips are in engagement with-the aid of lips.
A preferred embodiment of the grid ceiling according to the invention is characterized in that the pieces of channel beam or pieces of a different profile of the supporting structure have a length which is approximately equal to twice the length of the side supported thereby of each of the grids, the pieces of channel beam extending in transverse and longitudinal direction of the grid ceiling being arranged in staggered fashion relative to one another and the pieces of-channelbeam extending in one direction being suspended at their ends and the pieces of channel beam extending in the other direction being suspended'in their centre, the ends of the channelbeam extending in one direction engaging with lips the legs of the channel beam extending in the other direction. In this way the advantage is obtained that the entire grid ceiling can be manufactured in grid componentshaving small dimensions in the factory and that the grid components can be transported without difficulty to the building site and. may be dimensioned such as to be easily mountable while the ceiling composed-of these components nevertheless constitutes a firm assembly offering high resistance against deforming forces.
According to the invention the legs of thepieces of channel beam suspended in their centre may each be provided in'that the legs of the pieces of channel beam suspended in their centre are each provided witha slot through which a resilient suspension strip is passed which in its centre is secured to a suspensionrod or similar element and the ends of which lie against the inner side of the bodiesof the pieces of channel beam abutting against'andextending transversely to said firstmentioned pieces of channel'beam. At the location of said slots there may be provided, if desired, a hole in the body of the pieces of channel bea'rnand'throug'h said hole a nut threaded on the end of the suspension rod may be adjusted for height in order to bring the grid ceiling entirely into one flat plane. By applying this way of suspending the grid ceiling consisting of components the advantage is obtained that certain portions of the grid ceiling can easily be disassembled if operations have to be carried out above the ceiling, and the disassembled parts of the ceiling may easily be assembled after said operations have been completed.
A preferred embodiment of the grid ceiling according to the invention is characterized in that the legs of each of the pieces of section beam comprise holes through which a pin for suspension device is passed, said pin projecting on either side beyond said piece of section beam, a curved plate spring comprising a hole engaging each of said projecting pin ends, the lower end of said spring abutting with tension against the inner side of the body of the pieces of section beam engaging with the lips said first-mentioned piece of section beam.
-The invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompaying drawings showing by way of example an embodiment of the grid ceiling according to the invention.
The drawings show in FIG. 1 a top plane view of part of said grid ceiling;
FIG. 2 a cross-section of a piece of channel beam;
' FIG. 3 a side view of the piece of channel beam, parts of which have been broken away;
FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 a cross connection of the pieces of channel beam with the suspension device;
FIGS. 7 and 8 a view of the end portion of a longitudinal strip and of a transverse strip of a grid;
FIG. Q and 10 a top plan view and a section respectively of another embodiment of the grid.
The grid ceiling shown in the drawings comprises a supporting structure lfor'a plurality of grids arranged side 'by side, which in the drawings are square but which, if desired, may be rectangularly shaped or diamond-shaped or have any other shape.
The supporting structure 1 comprises a plurality of pieces of channel beam 3 and 4, arranged in longitudinal and transverse direction respectively, said pieces having a length equal to twice the width of agrid 2 plus the width of a pieceof channel beam 3. The pieces of channel beam 3 of two adjacent rows of pieces of channel beam are arranged staggered relative to one another such that on either side there abuts against the centre of each piece of channel beam an end portion of one of the pieces of channel beam crossing the firstmentioned piece of channel beam. The ends of the pieces of channel beam are provided with lips 5 engaging the legs of the piece of channel beam against which they abut. In order to prevent the pieces of channel beam from shifting relative to each other the legs of the pieces of channel beam are provided with slots 6 and the'lips with slots 7, said slots being of such length that the bodies of the crossing pieces of channel beam are situated in one plane.
A piece of channel bea'm 3 and 4 has in its centre a slot 8 through which a strip 9 of resilient material, for instance spring steel, grips, the ends of which are bent and abut against the inner side of the bodies of the pieces of channel beam co-operating with said firstmentioned piece of channel beam. ln the centre of the resilient strip 9 there is provided an aperture 10 through which the end of a threaded suspension rod 11 is'passed. With the aid of a nut 12 the suspension height of the pieces of channel beam can be adjusted such that their lower sides are situated in one plane. For this purpose a hole 13 may be provided at the point of the nut 12 in the body of the piece of channel beam in ques tion.
Lips l4 and 15 respectively of the longitudinal strips 16 and the transverse strips 17 of the grids engage the legs of the pieces of channel beam 3 and 4. In order to prevent said strips from shifting the legs of the pieces of channel beam 3 and 4 are provided with slots 18 and the lips 14 and 15 with slots 19.
The longitudinal and transverse strips of the grids in the drawings are provided in the known manner with slots 22 and 21 respectively with which they interlock. However, the grids may also be manufactured from one single piece of synthetic material. The longitudinal and transverse strips 16 and 17 are arranged such that the lower edges thereof are situated in the same plane as the bottom surfaces of the pieces of channel beam while the upper edges thereof project beyond said pieces of channel beam.
Each piece of channel beam 3 and 4 comprises a hole 22 through which a pin 23 is passed, the ends of which project beyond the channel beam 4 into the abutting channel beam 3. The upper end ofa plate spring 24 engages, with the aid of a hole 25 provided therein, each of said projecting pin ends. Said spring 24 is of such length that its portion below the hole provided therein is longer than the distance from the pin 23 to the bottom of the channel beam 3. After the springs have been mounted they-are pressed towards the legs of the piece of channel beam such that they assume the curved shape shown in FIG. 10. As a result the pin 23 is firmly held in the holes 22 of the channel beam 24. In each of the projecting end of the pin 23 one may provide, if desired, a groove 26 or suchlike recess in which part of the spring 24 situated at the periphery of the hole 22 provided in said spring 24 engages. Consequently the pins 23 are locked so as to ensure that they are prevented from shifting. if desired the lower end of each of the springs 24 can be secured by a groove 27 an/or a ridge 28 provided in or on the inner side of the body of the channel beams 3.
it is obvious that the invention is not restricted to the embodiment described above and shown in the drawing's. It is also possible, for instance, to manufacture the channel beams extending in longitudinal or transverse direction in one piece and to arrange between said onepiece beams short lengths of channel beam in the aforedescribed manner. In addition the grid ceiling according to the invention may be suspended in any known manner from a supporting structure used in practice. Also the longitudinal and transverse strips of the grids can have a different height or be provided in some other way, for example they may project beyond the bottom side of the pieces of channel beam.
