Definitions
- the present invention relates to a partition frame structure to be provided with panels, comprising vertical stud members and transverse girders mounted therebetween said stud members and said girders consisting of channel shaped metal sheet sections having inwardly bent edge flanges.
- the purpose of the invention is to provide a simple connection of the transverse girders to the vertical stud members without the use of special fasteners and particu ⁇ larly without the use of tools so as to facilitate the erection of the frame structure.
- the purpose of the invention is also to define accurately the distance between the vertical stud members when the frame struc ⁇ ture is being erected, by the mounting of the transverse girders, in order that the junctions between the panels of standard width mounted later on to the frame struc ⁇ ture, will be located centrally on the vertical stud members. Then, it must be taken into account that the panel at a vertical end stud member should have its edge flush with the stud member, i.e. it should cover the end stud member completely, and that the distance of a stud member to a joining partition may be less than the standard width of a panel.
- partition frame structure of the kind referred to according to the invention includes the characterizing features of claim 1.
- FIG. 1 is a side view of a partition having the frame structure of the invention the panels at one side of the partition being partly broken away,
- FIG. 2 is an enlarged side view of one of the transverse girders
- FIG 3 is a plan view of the girder shown in FIG. 2,
- FIG. 4 is a further enlarged horizontal cross sectional view, taken along lines IV-IV in FIG. 1,
- FIG 5 is an exploded perspective view of the transverse girder in FIGS. 1 to 4 and the joining vertical stud members,
- FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the left end of the transverse girder as seen from a position opposite to that in FIG. 5
- FIG. 7 is a perspective view corresponding to that of FIG. 5, with a transverse girder of the telescopic type,
- FIG. 8 is a cross sectional view of the telescopic type girder shown in FIG. 5
- FIG. 9 is a fragmentary perspective view of a modified embodiment of the transverse girder
- FIG. 10 is a fragmentary perspective view of the vertical stud member to be associated with the girder of FIG. 9, FIGS. 11 and 12 are corresponding views of a third embodiment,
- FIGS. 13 and 14 are corresponding views of a fourth embodiment
- FIG. 15 and 16 are corresponding views of a fifth embodiment of the transverse girder and the vertical stud members.
- FIG. 1 there is shown a frame structure of channel shaped metal sections, which comprises horizontal runners 10 and 11 mounted to the ceiling and the floor, respectively, and vertical stud members 12 mounted therebetween one member thereof being indicated at 12' and forms the termination of the frame structure and a door opening.
- a further vertical stud member is indicated at 12'' and is connected to a joining partition or wall.
- a so called nogging Between adjacent vertical stud members there is mounted substantially at half the height a horizontal girder 13, a so called nogging, the nogging connected to the verti- cal stud member 12' being indicated at 13' and the nogging connected to the vertical stud member 12' ' being indicated at 13' ' .
- At each side of the frame structure panels are mounted, preferably plaster boards 14 and 15, rspectively.
- the plaster boards 14 and 15 have the same width as the center distance between the two intermediate vertical stud members 12, and the junctions between the plaster boards are located on these vertical stud members while the end plaster boards cover completely the stud member 12' and the stud member 12'', respectively.
- the plaster boards are attached by means of screws to the vertical stud members as well as the noggings.
- the vertical stud members 12, 12' and 12' ' comprise a channel shaped metal sheet section having a web 16 and limbs 17, the latter having inwardly bent edge flanges 18 and 18', respectively.
- the flange 18 extends in parallel to the web 16, the flange 18' being bent towards the web.
- the horizontal girders or noggings 13 and 13' also comprise channel shaped metal sheet sections having a web 19 and two limbs 20 which both have inwardly bent edge flanges 21 extending in parallel to the web 19.
- Each nogging at one end thereof, the right end as seen in FIGS. 2 to 5, forms two pairs of opposite slots 22, 22' and 23, 23', respectively.
- Each slot extends along the corresponding limb 20 and a distance into the web 19 and the edge flange 21.
- the reason for the slots 22 and 23 being narrower than the slots 22' and 23' is that the slots 22 and 23 are intended to receive therein the flanges 18 while the slots 22' and 23' are intended to receive therein the bent flanges 18' of the vertical stud members 12.
- each nogging 13 at the other end thereof forms two pairs of slots, a norrow slot 24 located at the same side and shaped in the same manner as the slots 22 and 23, and a wider slot 24', located at the same side and shaped in the same manner as the slots 22' and 23'.
- the nogging forms also a tongue 25 which projects centrally from the web 19 and has a circular aperture 26 as well as a punched flap 27 projecting downwards at an oblique angle.
- a protrusion 28 formed partly by one of the limbs 20 and partly by the edge flange 21 thereof projects at each of the lower corners.
- the nogging shall be connected to a stud member 12 having the limbs thereof projecting towards the nogging, by the edge flanges 18 and 18' being inserted into the slots 22 and 22', respectively, or alternatively into the slots 23 and 23', respectively, the other end of the nogging being connected with a vertical stud member 12 the web 16 of which faces the nogging, the tongue 25 being inserted into a triangular aperture 29 in the web 16 and the protrusions 28 being inserted into triangular apertures 30 in the web 16.
- the flap 27 can engage behind the web in order to prevent withdrawal of the tongue 25.
- the nogging will be maintained on this stud member by such engagement projecting substantially horizontally therefrom. However, it can be displaced along the stud member so as to be brought into register with the apertures 29 and 30 in order that the tongue 25 and the protrusions 28, respectively, can be inserted into these apertures in the other stud member, or rather the stud member can be passed onto the tongue and the protrusions.
- the nogging is dimensioned to define the distance between two adjacent vertical stud members, which means that the distance between the end edge 31 of the nogging from which the tongue 25 and the protrusions 28 project, and the slots 22, 22' equals the distance between two adjacent vertical stud members 12, that is required in order that the junctions 32 (FIG.
- the noggings 13 and 13' utilized to define in an exact and simple manner the pitch of the vertical stud members so that it will be adapted to the standard width of the plaster boards 14 and 15.
- the aperture 26 in the tongue 25 is provided in case it is desired, e.g. after the tongue having been bent perpendicularly, to connect the nogging by means of screws to the vertical stud or a joining wall or partition or frame structure to which the partition described herein is to be connected. Then it usually may be necessary to cut off also the protrusions 28 so that they will not form an obstruction.
- the two parts forming the nogging can now be telescoped as much as is necessary in order that the composite nogging can be mounted between two vertical stud members 12 and 12' ' which both have the limbs facing the noggings because the vertical stud member 12' ' is connected at the web thereof to the joining partition. Accordingly, it is not possible to use the tongue 25 and the protrusions 28 for connecting the nogging to the vertical stud member 12''.
- the same type of connection can be used as at the other end because the nogging has the slots 24 and 24' which are engaged with the edge flanges 18 and 18'.
- the limbs 17 of the vertical stud members are resiliently moved apart so as to allow the edge flanges thereof to be engaged with the slots. It may be necessary to bend the tongue 25 downwards so that it will not abut the web 16 of the stud member 12' when the connection is being made.
- apertures may be provided for passing conduits or conduit pipes through the web, and such a conduit pipe 35 is shown in FIG. 1.
- flaps 33 are punched in the web 19 of the nogging, which can be bent down when it is desired to provide an aperture for the passage of conduits or whatever it is through the nogging.
- the flaps can also be used for locking the boxed parts of the telescopic nogging laterally as seen in FIG. 8. If the flaps which preferably are tapered towards the free end thereof, are given a width at the base, which corresponds to the distance between the inwardly bent edge flanges 21, the flaps will engage the edge flanges of the boxed parts of the nogging as shown at 34 in FIG. 8, so that the parts will not be moved apparatus laterally for example when fastening screws are screwed into flanges for the attachment of the plaster boards.
- nogging In order that the nogging can be divided in the manner described for making the telescopic type of nogging thin slots may be provided at suitable positions in the web and the limbs, said slots being separated from each other by narrow portions of the web and the limbs, respectively.
- the sections which form the vertical stud members can be provided with apertures 29 and 30 at suitable intervals in order that the noggings can be mounted substantially at the center if one nogging only is used in each space of the frame structure, or a nogging can be mounted at the top spaced from the ceiling, and another nogging can be mounted at the bottom spaced from the floor if two or more noggings are used in each space.
- the construction of the nogging at the end thereof where the tongue is provided can be modified, the apertures in the vertical stud member being modified correspondingly.
- the protrusions 28 are eliminated and the flap provided in the tongue 25, indicated at 27', is angled downwards perpendicularly.
- the triangular aperture 29 has been replaced by a rectangular aperture 29', the height of which is sufficient in order to allow the passage of the flap 27' so that said flap can be engaged behind the web.
- the flap 27 can also be replaced by a portion 27'' wherein a depression is made at one side of a slot that has been punched in the metal sheet as shown in FIG. 11.
- the stud member 12 for co-operation with the nogging of this embodiment can form apertures 30' which are rectangular instead of being triangular as the apertures 30.
- the nogging has two tongues 25' which replace the tongue 25 and are formed partly by the web 19 and partly by the limbs 20.
- Each tongue has a flap 27 which is, however, angled upwards instead of being angled downwards, the aperture 29 being replaced by two rectangular apertures 30'' in order that the tongues 25' will be received therein, the upwardly angled flaps 27 then engaging the stud member above the upper edge of the rectangular apertures.
- protrusions 28' are provided which are formed exclusively by the limbs 20, not by the edge flanges 21, the stud member 12 forming narrow slots 30''' in order to receive the protrusions therein. Also the aperture for the tongue 25 is formed as a slot 29''.
