Definitions
- the present invention relates to a partition wall device used generally, but not exclusively, in offices to create boxes or partitions.
- the present invention relates more particularly to a partition of the type which is the subject of application EP 1050637 in the name of the Applicant.
- Such a partition is intended to remedy the drawbacks of existing partitions, for this it is of robust construction and of a relatively reduced manufacturing cost without being unattractive, and it is able to be assembled securely to others according to different configurations. .
- This partition is of the type comprising at each of its corners an angle element capable of receiving a connecting piece making it possible to connect two or more partitions from above or from below, depending on the configuration of said connecting piece, said elements. of angle being secured to the ends of profiles which border said partition, each of said corner elements being secured to two profiles by means of two screws, the screw securing to the vertical profile being pierced with an axial hole, possibly tapped, intended to receive a clip pin or a fastening screw for a connecting piece.
- the connecting pieces include holes, each for the passage of a screw intended to be screwed into the threaded axial hole, made in the screw for securing the corner element to a vertical profile, while the head of said screw has a tip constituting a foot, and that its driving depth is adjustable.
- the present invention aims to provide a partition wall device to overcome this drawback.
- the partition wall device is of the type comprising a panel bordered by profiles connected to one another by corner elements, each capable of receiving a connecting piece so as to allow two to be connected from above and from below. partitions or more depending on the configuration of said connecting piece, each of said corner elements being secured to the two sections which it connects by means of two screws, the fixing screw to the vertical section being pierced with a tapped axial hole intended for receive a screw for securing a connecting piece, and it is essentially characterized in that the low connecting piece is capable of being secured to the lower corner element of a partition by means of a screw provided of an end piece constituting a foot, and of supporting at least one other partition while carrying out the indexing of the latter, while the upper connecting piece is capable of being secured to each of the partitions ns assemblies.
- the lower connecting piece is thus secured to a single partition, which can be easily achieved while said partition is, for example, lying flat, while the other partition (s) which must be connected to said partition rest on said piece of connection, which is of course rigid, and are only indexed thereon, the locking in position being achieved by means of the high connecting piece which is secured by screwing and which is easily accessible.
- the lower connecting piece comprises a hole for the passage of a fastening screw to a corner element, and one, or more depending on the number of partitions to be assembled, indexing stud capable of being freely introduced into the threaded hole of the screw for securing a corner element to a vertical profile.
- the contact surfaces of a connecting piece and of a corner element comprise indexing means making it possible to give a preferential orientation of one with respect to to the other.
- Figure 1 shows a partial view in median section along a vertical plane of a partition wall according to the invention.
- Figures 4a, 4b and 4c each show a plan view of a connecting piece allowing the assembly of partition walls according to the invention.
- Figures 6a and 6b show partial schematic views of different assemblies of partitions according to one invention.
- a partition device 1 according to the invention consists of a wall 10 bordered on the periphery by horizontal sections 2 and vertical profiles 3, only one of which is visible, as well as two corner elements 4 which, each, connect, between them, a horizontal profile 2 and a vertical profile 3.
- a horizontal profile 2 shown in cross section in FIG. 2 is preferably made of extruded aluminum, and it essentially comprises two parallel wings 20 intended to receive, between them, the lower or upper edge of the wall 10, as well as a tubular part 21, open longitudinally for manufacturing reasons, the ends 22 of which are tapped.
- a vertical profile 3, shown in cross section in Figure 3, is also preferably made of extruded aluminum, and it essentially comprises two parallel wings 30 intended to receive, between them, a vertical edge of the wall 10, as well as a tubular part 31, open longitudinally for manufacturing reasons, the ends 32 of which are tapped.
- a corner element 4 consists of a block of elm metal allowing its adaptation to the end of a horizontal profile 2 and to the end of a vertical profile 3. It includes means nesting allowing indexing the position of the profiles 2 and 3 and thus avoid pivoting of one on the other. These means consist, on the one hand, of studs 40 intended to be fitted into housings 23 which comprise the horizontal profile 2, and, on the other hand, of studs 41 intended to be fitted into housings 33 which comprise the vertical profile 3.
- the corner element 4 is secured by means of screws, a screw 24 screwed into the threaded end 22 of the tubular part 21 of the horizontal profile 2, and a screw 34 screwed into the threaded end 32 of the tubular part 31 of the vertical profile 3.
- the wall 10 is encircled and the assembly constitutes a partition 1. All the partitions 1 intended for making boxes are identical in design. , only their dimensions in the width direction can be different.
- the screws 34 each have a threaded axial channel 34 ′, intended to receive for the upper corner element 4, a countersunk head screw 35, and for the corner element 4 lower a screw 36 provided with a nut 37 and a washer 38, and whose head is furnished with a nozzle 39 which is preferably made of a plastic material.
- the end piece 39 constitutes a foot, while the nut 37 and the washer 38 make it possible to adjust the driving depth of the screw 36 to make up for any flatness or ground level defect.
- an axially threaded screw 34 makes it possible to reduce the dimensions of the corner piece 4 and consequently the width of the vertical profile 3.
- the screw 36 is intended to be fixed to the element of lower angle 4 a lower connecting piece 5, while the screw 35 is intended for securing to the upper corner element 4 a high connecting piece 6, shown partially in FIG. 1, to allow the partition 1 to be assembled to one or more other partitions 1, depending on the connecting pieces 5 and 6 used, which can take many forms.
- All the lower connecting pieces 5 have an orifice 50 and at least one indexing pivot 51.
- FIG. 4a a connecting piece 5 of triangular shape can be seen which has an orifice 50 for receiving a screw 36, and two indexing pivots 51 for the assembly of three partitions 1.
- FIG. 4b one can see a connecting piece 5 of square shape which has an orifice 50 for receiving a screw 36, and three indexing pivots 51 for the assembly of four partitions 1.
- FIGS. 4c and 5 we can see a connecting piece 5 of oblong shape which has an orifice 50 for receiving a screw 36, and an indexing pivot 51 for the assembly of two partitions 1.
- the lower connecting pieces 5 are made of metal so as to offer great resistance, since after joining the piece 5 to a corner element 4 of a partition 1 by means of a screw 36 introduced into the orifice 50 and tightened in the channel 34 'of the screw 34, the other or the other partitions 1 rest on the part 5, the indexing pivot or pins each being introduced into the tapped hole 34' of a screw 34 in order to '' avoid transverse displacements.
- the final fixing is therefore ensured by fixing the high connecting pieces 6, which are screwed onto each of the partitions 1.
- FIGS. 4a, 4b, 4c and 5 that the orifice 50 of each of the lower connecting pieces 5 is bordered, on the side of which the pivots 51 project, from a stud 53 of substantially oblong shape intended to be housed in a notch 42 of complementary shape, visible in FIG. 1, made in the corner element 4, in order to index the position of the connecting parts relative to the partition 1.
- the indexing pivots 51 are, for their part, surmounted by a cylindrical stud 54 also intended to be introduced into a notch 42, so as to be centered there with the possibility of turning there to orient the partitions 1.
- each of the indexing pivots 51 of the lower connecting pieces 5 is provided with a stud 53 to guarantee a precise angle.
- indexing of a connecting piece 5 on a corner element 4 can be carried out differently.
- the contact faces of these may for example have radial teeth of complementary shapes, making it possible to block them one on the other in a precise angular position, the number of possible angles being a function of the pitch of the teeth.
- the upper connecting pieces 6 also have studs, similar to studs 53 and 54.
