Definitions

  • THIS invention relates to a fastening arrangement. More particularly, but not exclusively, this invention relates to a fastening arrangement for a panel.
  • a fastening arrangement for a panel includes a clamp between which panel engaging means is clamped, the clamp having an opening through which a portion of the panel extends to the panel engaging means so that movement of the panel engaging means along the jaws away from the opening tensions the panel.
  • the clamp preferably includes a pair of jaws. Each jaw preferably has teeth. The teeth on one of the jaws are preferably staggered relative to the teeth on the other jaw. The teeth on one of the jaws preferably face in the opposite direction to the teeth on the other jaw.
  • the panel engaging means is preferably removably clamped between the jaws so that the panel engaging means can be withdrawn from the jaws to free the panel from the jaws.
  • the jaws are preferably made of a rigid material relative to the panel engaging means.
  • the jaws may be made of metal and the panel engaging means may be made of a resiliently flexible material.
  • the metal may be aluminum and the resiliently flexible material may be a polymeric material.
  • the polymeric material may be an elastomer.
  • the panel engaging means is an elongate cord which may be shockcord.
  • the panel preferably extends through the opening to the jaws and around the panel engaging means so that the panel is fixed relative to panel engaging means by the clamping action of the jaws.
  • the jaws and the panel engaging means are preferably elongate.
  • the clamp may extend along at least one side of the panel and preferably along the entire periphery of the panel.
  • a closure for the opening to the jaws may be provided.
  • the closure is preferably removably located in the opening.
  • the clamp may include securing means for securing the clamp to a foundation.
  • the securing means may comprise at least one strip with apertures for rivets, bolts or the like used to secure the clamp to the foundation.
  • the clamp may include a slideway for slidably locating it on a slide.
  • the scope of the invention extends separately to the clamp for the fastening arrangement.
  • a method of tensioning a panel includes the steps of passing a portion of the panel around a panel engaging member, inserting the panel engaging member into an opening to a clamp, urging the panel engaging member along the clamp away from the opening to tension the panel.
  • Figure 1 is a side view of a display panel surrounded by a clamp according to the invention
  • Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view on line ll-ll of figure 1 with the panel in an untensioned position;
  • Figure 3 is the same view as figure 2 but with the panel in a tensioned position
  • Figure 4 is a side view of a clamp showing the shockcord in an entry position and in eight different panel tensioning positions;
  • Figure 5 is a side view of a clamp with its opening closed by a closure.
  • a flexible display panel 10 is surrounded on its four sides by an extruded aluminum clamp 12.
  • the clamp 12 has two jaws 14 and 16 with teeth 18.
  • the teeth 18 on jaw 14 face in the opposite direction to the teeth 18 on the jaw 16.
  • the clamp 12 has an opening 20 through which an edge of the display panel 10 extends to pass around a length of shockcord 22.
  • the shockcord 22 extends along the length of the clamp 12. By pushing the shockcord 22 away from the opening 20, along the jaws the display panel 10 is tensioned.
  • Figure 4 shows the various positions of the shockcord 22. The position of the shockcord 22 closest to the opening 20 is the entry position and the remaining eight positions are panel tensioning positions. The shockcord 22 can be withdrawn from the fastener to release the display panel 10 from the clamp 12.
  • a removable closure 24 is provided to close the opening 20.
  • a slideway 26 is provided for engaging a slide (not shown) to locate the clamp 12 in position if necessary.
  • the clamp 12 has two strips 30 and 32 through which rivets, bolts, nails or the like can extend to secure the clamp 12 to a mounting surface 28.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de fixation destiné à un panneau et muni d'un élément de blocage dans lequel un organe de prise de panneau vient se loger. Ledit élément de blocage comporte une ouverture à travers laquelle une partie dudit panneau se prolonge jusqu'à l'organe de prise de panneau de façon qu'un mouvement de l'organe de prise de panneau le long des mâchoires dans le sens l'opposé à l'ouverture soumette le panneau à une tension.
