Description

La présente invention concerne un système support d'éléments d'habillage de façade, en particulier de caissons en tôle pliée, comportant une pluralité de profilés parallèles.The present invention relates to a support system for facade cladding elements, in particular folded sheet metal boxes, comprising a plurality of parallel sections.

La méthode la plus usitée actuellement lorsqu'il s'agit de procéder à un tel habillage de façade consiste à fabriquer en usine des profilés verticaux qui sont ensuite fixés sur des étriers placés le long de la façade. Comme il y a lieu de prévoir une possibilité de réglage tridimensionnelle du positionnement des profilés (notamment dans les opérations de rénovation où la façade présente une surface irrégulière) ces étriers sont formés d'une série d'équerres réalisées et assemblées selon une technique mécano-soudée avec passage de boulons au travers de trous oblongs pour permettre le réglage désiré. Les profilés sont ensuite percés horizontalement et pourvus d'axes horizontaux boulonnés. Ces axes horizontaux permettront de suspendre ensuite les panneaux en tôle pliée qui cpmportent des encoches grugées sur des retours verticaux à des emplacements correspondant aux axes d'accrochage.The most commonly used method at present when it comes to making such a facade cladding consists of manufacturing vertical profiles in the factory which are then fixed on stirrups placed along the facade. As it is necessary to provide for a possibility of three-dimensional adjustment of the positioning of the profiles (in particular in renovation operations where the facade has an irregular surface) these stirrups are formed from a series of brackets produced and assembled using a mechanical technique. welded with passage of bolts through oblong holes to allow the desired adjustment. The profiles are then drilled horizontally and provided with bolted horizontal axes. These horizontal axes will then suspend the folded sheet panels which carry notched notches on vertical returns at locations corresponding to the attachment axes.

La mise en oeuvre de ce procédé classique est cependant lourde et coûteuse en raison des nombreuses opérations de perçage, découpe, façonnage... nécessaires, chaque ossature étant réalisée sur mesure en fonction du besoin du chantier.The implementation of this conventional process is however cumbersome and expensive because of the numerous drilling, cutting, shaping, etc. operations required, each frame being made to measure according to the needs of the site.

Comme cela est décrit dans les documents LU-A-80 537 (correspondant au préambule de la revendication 1), DE-A-2850167 et FR-A-2 303 906 (préambule de la rev. 16), on a tenté d'éliminer ces inconvénients en proposant des systèmes support d'éléments d'habillage de façade dont la fixation est réalisée par boulonnage et non point par mécano-soudage.As described in documents LU-A-80 537 (corresponding to the preamble of claim 1), DE-A-2850167 and FR-A-2 303 906 (preamble to rev. 16), attempts have been made to Eliminate these drawbacks by proposing support systems for facade cladding elements, the fixing of which is carried out by bolting and not by mechanical welding.

Néanmoins, les systèmes supports décrits et .représentés dans les documents précités ne donnent pas pleinement satisfaction. Ces systèmes ne peuvent être utilisés que dans des cas de pose particuliers, sont coûteux, peu fiables et d'installation complexe demandant du personnel spécialisé. Enfin, ces dispositifs sont mal adaptés pour permettre un réglage tridimensionnel des moyens support des éléments d'habillage de façade permettant de corriger en particulier des défauts de la façade.However, the support systems described and represented in the aforementioned documents are not entirely satisfactory. These systems can only be used in special installation cases, are expensive, unreliable and complex to install requiring specialized personnel. Finally, these devices are ill-suited to allow a three-dimensional adjustment of the support means of the facade cladding elements making it possible to correct in particular faults in the facade.

La présente invention vise à éliminer l'ensemble de ces inconvénients.The present invention aims to eliminate all of these drawbacks.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer un système support d'éléments d'habillage de façade qui puisse faire l'objet de nombreuses adaptations, c'est-à-dire qui permette, sur chantier, à un poseur disposant d'un stock limité de pièces, d'adapter l'assemblage des éléments intervenant dans le système support conforme à la présente invention, à la structure et à l'agencement de la façade devant être revêtue desdits éléments d'habillage.Another object of the present invention is to provide a support system for facade cladding elements which can be the subject of numerous adaptations, that is to say which allows, on site, a installer having a limited stock of parts, to adapt the assembly of elements involved in the support system according to the present invention, to the structure and arrangement of the facade to be coated with said cladding elements.

De façon avantageuse, et pour assurer un assemblage robuste du système support conforme à la présente invention, l'une au moins des faces principales de la seconde branche des pièces d'ancrage est munie de saillies d'accrochage s'étendant perpendiculairement à ladite seconde direction de réglage.Advantageously, and to ensure a robust assembly of the support system according to the present invention, at least one of the main faces of the second branch of the anchoring parts is provided with hooking projections extending perpendicular to said second. direction of adjustment.

Pour permettre d'engager les pièces de blocage sur les profilés supports, sans imposer un coulissement des pièces de blocage le long desdits profilés, de préférence chaque pièce de blocage comprend une plaque allongée en forme générale de parallélogramme solidaire d'une tige filetée engagée dans une pièce de liaison associée et dont la plus faible largeur est légèrement inférieure à la largeur d'ouverture d'une rainure à bords convergents prévue sur les profilés.To allow engagement of the locking pieces on the support profiles, without imposing a sliding of the locking pieces along said profiles, preferably each locking piece comprises an elongated plate in the general shape of a parallelogram secured to a threaded rod engaged in an associated connecting piece and the smallest width of which is slightly less than the opening width of a groove with converging edges provided on the profiles.

Plus précisément encore, chaque pièce de blocage comprend de préférence une plaque allongée dont les côtés sont parallèles deux à deux et délimitent deux angles opposés aigus et deux angles opposés obtus qui sont arrondis selon un rayon de courbure égal à la moitié de la grande hauteur de la plaque.More precisely still, each blocking piece preferably comprises an elongated plate whose sides are parallel two by two and delimit two opposite acute angles and two opposite obtuse angles which are rounded according to a radius of curvature equal to half of the great height of the plaque.

Cette grande hauteur de la plaque de la pièce de blocage est avantageusement sensiblement égale à la largeur interne de la rainure à bords convergents destinés à recevoir la pièce de blocage.This great height of the plate of the blocking piece is advantageously substantially equal to the internal width of the groove with converging edges intended to receive the blocking piece.

Pour renforcer encore l'assemblage du système support, chaque pièce de liaison peut avantageusement être munie, sur sa face adjacente de la seconde branche des pièces d'ancrage, de saillies d'accrochage s'étendant perpendiculairement à ladite seconde direction de réglage.To further strengthen the assembly of the support system, each connecting piece may advantageously be provided, on its adjacent face with the second branch of the anchoring pieces, hooking projections extending perpendicular to said second direction of adjustment.

  • de brides 500 servant de support aux éléments d'habillage et adaptées pour être immobilisées sur les profilés 300 dans une position réglable dans ladite troisième direction.
Essentially, as shown in the appended figures, the support system for facade cladding elements according to the present invention consists, in combination:
  • a plurality of anchoring pieces 100 intended to be fixed on the facade to be coated, with the possibility of adjustment between each anchoring piece 100 and the facade F in a first direction parallel to the facade,
  • of the same number of intermediate connecting pieces 200 intended to be fixed respectively to each anchoring piece 100 with the possibility of adjustment between the anchoring pieces 100 and the connecting pieces 200 in a second direction orthogonal to the first and orthogonal on facade F,

On va tout d'abord décrire la structure des pièces d'ancrage 100 représentées sur les figures annexées.We will first describe the structure of the anchoring parts 100 shown in the accompanying figures.

Chaque pièce d'ancrage 100 a la forme générale d'une équerre à deux branches 110, 150 sensiblement orthogonales.Each anchoring piece 100 has the general shape of a square with two branches 110, 150 substantially orthogonal.

Chacune des branches 110, 150 est généralement plane et de préférence verticale à l'utilisation.Each of the branches 110, 150 is generally flat and preferably vertical in use.

La première branche 110, à l'utilisation, repose contre la façade F. Cette première branche 110 est munie d'au moins un orifice oblong 112 s'étendant dans la direction d'élongation de la première branche.The first branch 110, in use, rests against the facade F. This first branch 110 is provided with at least one oblong orifice 112 extending in the direction of elongation of the first branch.

Cet orifice oblong 112 est destiné à recevoir une vis 120 venant en prise dans une cheville 124 ancrée dans la façade, avec interposition d'une rondelle 122 pour fixer chaque pièce d'ancrage 100 sur la façade F.This oblong hole 112 is intended to receive a screw 120 engaging in a dowel 124 anchored in the facade, with the interposition of a washer 122 to fix each anchoring piece 100 on the facade F.

L'homme de l'art comprendra aisément que l'orifice oblong 112 permet, lors de l'installation, un réglage entre chaque pièce d'ancrage 100 et la façade F dans une première direction parallèle à la façade et correspondant à la-direction d'élongation de l'orifice oblong 112, schématisée sur les figures par la flèche référencée I.Those skilled in the art will readily understand that the oblong orifice 112 allows, during installation, an adjustment between each anchoring piece 100 and the facade F in a first direction parallel to the facade and corresponding to the direction of elongation of the oblong orifice 112, shown diagrammatically in the figures by the arrow referenced I.

La seconde branche 150 des pièces d'ancrage 100 s'étend perpendiculairement à la façade F. Cette seconde branche 150 est munie d'au moins un orifice oblong 152 s'étendant dans la direction d'élongation de la seconde branche 150, c'est-à-dire perpendiculairement à la façade F.The second branch 150 of the anchoring pieces 100 extends perpendicular to the facade F. This second branch 150 is provided with at least one oblong orifice 152 extending in the direction of elongation of the second branch 150, c ' that is to say perpendicular to the facade F.

On a représenté sur la figure 1 une pièce d'ancrage 100 qui comporte dans sa seconde branche 150 un orifice oblong 152 unique.There is shown in Figure 1 an anchor 100 which has in its second branch 150 a single oblong orifice 152.

On a par ailleurs représenté sur les figures 6, 7 et 8 une seconde variante de réalisation des pièces d'ancrage 100 comportant dans leur seconde branche 150 une pluralité d'orifices oblongs 152 alignés, en l'espèce au nombre de 3.FIGS. 6, 7 and 8 also show a second alternative embodiment of the anchoring parts 100 comprising in their second branch 150 a plurality of aligned oblong orifices 152, in this case 3 in number.

Les alésages oblongs 152 sont destinés à recevoir des seconds moyens de fixation permettant d'assembler une pièce de liaison intermédiaire 200 sur la seconde branche 150 de chaque pièce d'ancrage 100.The oblong bores 152 are intended to receive second fixing means making it possible to assemble an intermediate connecting piece 200 on the second branch 150 of each anchoring piece 100.

De préférence, comme cela est illustré sur les figures annexées, les- seconds moyens de fixation sont formés d'un système vis 160-écrou 164, avec rondelle 162 interposée.Preferably, as illustrated in the appended figures, the second fixing means are formed by a screw 160-nut system 164, with washer 162 interposed.

L'homme de l'art comprendra aisément que les alésages oblongs 152 permettent un réglage entre les pièces d'ancrage 100 et les pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 dans une seconde direction orthogonale à la première I et orthogonale à la façade F, schématisée sur les figures par la flèche référencée II.Those skilled in the art will readily understand that the oblong bores 152 allow adjustment between the anchoring pieces 100 and the intermediate connecting pieces 200 in a second direction orthogonal to the first I and orthogonal to the facade F, shown diagrammatically on the figures by the arrow referenced II.

Le cas échéant, comme cela est représenté sur les figures, la seconde branche 150 des pièces d'ancrage 100 est munie, sur l'une au moins de ses faces principales, le cas échéant sur les deux, de saillies 154 parallèles et perpendiculaires à ladite seconde direction II.Where appropriate, as shown in the figures, the second branch 150 of the anchoring parts 100 is provided, on at least one of its main faces, if necessary on both, with projections 154 parallel and perpendicular to said second direction II.

Ces saillies 154 permettent de renforcer la fiabilité de l'assemblage entre les pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 et les pièces d'ancrage 100.These projections 154 make it possible to reinforce the reliability of the assembly between the intermediate connecting parts 200 and the anchoring parts 100.

On va maintenant décrire la structure des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 représentées sur les figures.We will now describe the structure of the intermediate connecting pieces 200 shown in the figures.

Ces pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 peuvent faire l'objet de différentes variantes de réalisation.These intermediate connecting pieces 200 can be the subject of different variant embodiments.

Une première variante de réalisation de ces pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 est illustrée sur la figure 2 annexée.A first alternative embodiment of these intermediate connecting pieces 200 is illustrated in Figure 2 attached.

Selon cette illustration, la pièce de liaison intermédiaire. 200 a la forme générale d'une équerre à deux ailes orthogonales 210, 230. Les ailes'210, 230 sont généralement planes et verticales à l'utilisation.According to this illustration, the intermediate connecting piece. 200 has the general shape of a square with two orthogonal wings 210, 230. The wings ' 210, 230 are generally flat and vertical in use.

La première aile 210 des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 est destinée à reposer contre la seconde branche des pièces d'ancrage 110.The first wing 210 of the intermediate connecting pieces 200 is intended to rest against the second branch of the anchoring pieces 110.

La première aile 210 est munie d'au moins un orifice 212 destiné à recevoir les seconds moyens de fixation précités pour assurer l'assemblage des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 sur les pièces d'ancrage 100.The first wing 210 is provided with at least one orifice 212 intended to receive the aforementioned second fixing means for ensuring the assembly of the intermediate connecting pieces 200 on the anchoring pieces 100.

Le cas échéant, l'orifice 212 peut être oblong. De plus, la première aile 210 peut être munie d'une pluralité d'orifices 212.If necessary, the orifice 212 can be oblong. In addition, the first wing 210 can be provided with a plurality of orifices 212.

De préférence, la première aile 210 est munie sur sa face principale reposant contre la seconde branche 150 des pièces d'ancrage 100 de saillies d'accrochage 214 s'étendant parallèlement au pli défini entre les deux ailes 210, 230, c'est-à-dire perpendiculairement à la seconde direction de réglage référencée Il sur les figures.Preferably, the first wing 210 is provided on its main face resting against the second branch 150 of the anchoring parts 100 with hooking projections 214 extending parallel to the fold defined between the two wings 210, 230, that is ie perpendicular to the second direction of adjustment referenced II in the figures.

La seconde aile 230 s'étend parallèlement à la façade F, à l'utilisation. Cette seconde aile 230 est adaptée pour supporter les pièces de blocage 400.The second wing 230 extends parallel to the front F, in use. This second wing 230 is adapted to support the locking pieces 400.

Pour ce faire, de préférence, la seconde aile 230 est munie d'un alésage traversant 232 destiné à recevoir une vis 430 des moyens de blocage 400.To do this, preferably, the second wing 230 is provided with a through bore 232 intended to receive a screw 430 of the locking means 400.

De plus, de préférence, la seconde aile 230 est munie sur la face principale tournée vers les profilés 300 de deux nervures parallèles 234, 236 destinées à supporter les profilés 300, et dont l'écartement est à cet effet, égal à l'encombrement extérieur de structures homologues longitudinales prévues sur les profilés 300.In addition, preferably, the second wing 230 is provided on the main face facing the profiles 300 with two parallel ribs 234, 236 intended to support the profiles 300, and the spacing of which is for this purpose, equal to the size exterior of homologous longitudinal structures provided on the profiles 300.

Comme on l'a évoqué précédemment, l'assemblage des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 sur les pièces d'ancrage 100 est de préférence réalisé à l'aide de systèmes vis-écrou 160-164.As mentioned above, the assembly of the intermediate connecting pieces 200 on the anchoring pieces 100 is preferably carried out using screw-nut systems 160-164.

Une seconde variante de réalisation des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 est illustrée sur la figure 5 annexée.A second alternative embodiment of the intermediate connecting pieces 200 is illustrated in the attached FIG. 5.

Selon cette seconde variante de réalisation, chaque pièce de liaison intermédiaire 200' est formée d'un corps généralement plan 250 qui repose à l'utilisation contre une surface principale de la seconde branche 150 des pièces d'ancrage 100.According to this second variant embodiment, each intermediate connecting piece 200 ′ is formed of a generally planar body 250 which rests in use against a main surface of the second branch 150 of the anchoring pieces 100.

De ce fait, à l'utilisation, le corps plan 250 des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200' s'étend généralement perpendiculairement à la façade F.Therefore, in use, the planar body 250 of the intermediate connecting pieces 200 ′ generally extends perpendicular to the facade F.

Selon cette seconde variante de réalisation, les moyens prévus sur le corps plan 250 pour assurer l'assemblage des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200' sur la seconde branche 150 des pièces d'ancrage, servent également à supporter les pièces de blocage 400.According to this second alternative embodiment, the means provided on the planar body 250 for ensuring the assembly of the intermediate connecting pieces 200 ′ on the second branch 150 of the anchoring pieces, also serve to support the locking pieces 400.

Selon l'illustration de la figure 5, ces moyens comprennent un alésage 252 traversant le corps plan 250 et destiné à recevoir la vis 430 des moyens de blocage 400, coopérant avec l'écrou 164 précité, et engagée par ailleurs dans. l'alésage oblong 152 des pièces d'ancrage 100.According to the illustration in FIG. 5, these means comprise a bore 252 passing through the planar body 250 and intended to receive the screw 430 of the locking means 400, cooperating with the nut 164 mentioned above, and also engaged in. the oblong bore 152 of the anchoring parts 100.

On aperçoit de plus à l'examen de la figure 5, sur la face principale des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200' dirigée vers les profilés 300, deux nervures parallèles 254, 256 homologues des nervures 234 et 236 précitées.On examination of FIG. 5, on the main face of the intermediate connecting pieces 200 ′ directed towards the profiles 300, we can see two parallel ribs 254, 256 homologous to the ribs 234 and 236 mentioned above.

On va maintenant décrire la structure des profilés support 300 représentés sur les figures annexées.We will now describe the structure of the support profiles 300 shown in the accompanying figures.

Ces profilés support 300 comprennent 3 voiles perpendiculaires deux à deux référencés 302, 304 et 306.These support profiles 300 comprise 3 perpendicular webs two by two referenced 302, 304 and 306.

Ces trois voiles 302, 304 et 306 définissent une cavité 308 ouverte longitudinalement à l'opposé de la façade F.These three walls 302, 304 and 306 define a cavity 308 open longitudinally opposite the facade F.

Cette cavité 308 possède au niveau de son ouverture longitudinale des bords convergents formés de nervures longitudinales 310, 312.This cavity 308 has at its longitudinal opening converging edges formed by longitudinal ribs 310, 312.

De plus, deux voiles adjacentes 302, 304 sont munies sur leur surface extérieure de rainures à bords convergents 314, 320 formées de nervures 316, 318 d'une part, et 322, 324 d'autre part.In addition, two adjacent webs 302, 304 are provided on their outer surface with grooves with converging edges 314, 320 formed of ribs 316, 318 on the one hand, and 322, 324 on the other.

On va maintenant décrire la structure des pièces de blocage 400 représentées sur les figures annexées.We will now describe the structure of the locking pieces 400 shown in the accompanying figures.

Ces pièces de blocage 400 sont adaptées pour être introduites dans l'une des rainures 314, 320 à bords convergents précitées, à n'importe quel endroit des profilés 300, sans devoir nécessairement être engagées en bout du profilé et déplacées par coulissement le long de celui-ci.These blocking pieces 400 are adapted to be introduced into one of the grooves 314, 320 with the aforementioned converging edges, at any location of the profiles 300, without necessarily having to be engaged at the end of the profile and moved by sliding along this one.

Pour cela, chaque pièce de blocage 400 comprend une plaque allongée 410 en forme générale de parallélogramme, solidaire d'une tige filetée 430 qui lui est généralement perpendiculaire, la plus faible largeur de la plaque 410, référencée 1 sur la figure 3B, étant légèrement inférieure à la largeur d'ouverture, référencée L sur les figures, d'une rainure à bords convergents 314, 320 prévue sur les profilés 300.For this, each locking piece 400 comprises an elongated plate 410 in the general shape of a parallelogram, secured to a threaded rod 430 which is generally perpendicular thereto, the smallest width of the plate 410, referenced 1 in FIG. 3B, being slightly less than the opening width, referenced L in the figures, of a groove with converging edges 314, 320 provided on the profiles 300.

Plus précisément encore, de préférence, comme cela est représenté sur la figure 3B annexée, chaque pièce de blocage comprend une plaque allongée 410 dont les côtés 412, 414, 416 et 418 sont parallèles deux à deux et délimitent deux angles opposés aigus 420, 422 et deux angles opposés obtus 424, 426, qui sont arrondis selon un rayon de courbure égal au plus à la moitié de la grande hauteur de la plaque référencée H sur la figure 3B ; tandis que cette grande hauteur H de la plaque 410 est sensiblement égale à la largeur interne L; de chaque rainure à bords convergents 314, 320 destinée à recevoir la pièce de blocage.More precisely still, preferably, as shown in the appended FIG. 3B, each blocking piece comprises an elongated plate 410 whose sides 412, 414, 416 and 418 are parallel in pairs and delimit two opposite acute angles 420, 422 and two obtuse opposite angles 424, 426, which are rounded according to a radius of curvature equal to at most half of the great height of the plate referenced H in FIG. 3B; while this great height H of the plate 410 is substantially equal to the internal width L ; each groove with converging edges 314, 320 intended to receive the blocking piece.

L'homme de l'art comprendra aisément qu'ainsi, pour immobiliser une pièce de blocage 400 sur un profilé 300 il suffit (1) de présenter une plaque allongée 410 en regard d'une rainure à bords convergents 314, 320, les bords longitudinaux 412, 414 de cette plaque s'étendant parallèlement aux nervures 316, 318 ou 322, 324 (2) de repousser la plaque 410 à l'intérieur de la rainure à bords convergents associée puis (3) de faire pivoter la plaque 410 autour de l'axe de la vis 430 qui lui est transversale pour porter les bords transversaux 416, 418 en appui contre les surfaces internes des nervures 316, 318 ou 322, 324.Those skilled in the art will readily understand that, in order to immobilize a blocking piece 400 on a profile 300, it suffices (1) to present an elongated plate 410 facing a groove with converging edges 314, 320, the edges longitudinal 412, 414 of this plate extending parallel to the ribs 316, 318 or 322, 324 (2) to push the plate 410 inside the groove with associated converging edges then (3) to pivot the plate 410 around of the axis of the screw 430 which is transverse thereto for carrying the transverse edges 416, 418 bearing against the internal surfaces of the ribs 316, 318 or 322, 324.

Dans cette position, chaque plaque 410 est retenue fermement à l'intérieur de la rainure à bords convergents associée 314, 320.In this position, each plate 410 is firmly retained inside the associated converging edge groove 314, 320.

On va maintenant décrire la structure des brides support (500) illustrée sur les figures annexées.We will now describe the structure of the support flanges (500) illustrated in the appended figures.

Selon le mode de réalisation représenté sur la figure 4 annexée, chaque bride support 500 comprend un corps 510 adapté pour être logé dans la cavité 308 des profilés et muni d'un alésage taraudé 512 recevant une vis 530 permettant d'immobiliser la bride 500 sur un profilé 300 dans une position réglable dans la direction d'élongation des profilés.According to the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 appended, each support flange 500 comprises a body 510 adapted to be housed in the cavity 308 of the profiles and provided with a tapped bore 512 receiving a screw 530 making it possible to immobilize the flange 500 on a profile 300 in an adjustable position in the direction of elongation of the profiles.

A l'utilisation, le corps 510 s'étend transversalement à la direction d'élongation des profilés 300 et parallèlement au voile 304 formant le fond de la cavité 308.In use, the body 510 extends transversely to the direction of elongation of the sections 300 and parallel to the web 304 forming the bottom of the cavity 308.

L'alésage taraudé 512 s'étend perpendiculairement à ce voile 304.The threaded bore 512 extends perpendicular to this web 304.

De préférence, l'extrémité 532 de la vis 530, qui vient en appui contre le voile 304 précité a la forme d'un pointeau conique de telle sorte qu'au cours du serrage de la vis 530 la pointe 532 s'enfonce dans une rainure à bords convergents 326 prévue sur la surface interne du voile 304.Preferably, the end 532 of the screw 530, which bears against the aforementioned web 304 has the shape of a conical needle so that at during the tightening of the screw 530, the point 532 is inserted into a groove with converging edges 326 provided on the internal surface of the web 304.

Plus précisément, selon le mode de réalisation représenté sur les figures, le corps 510 des brides support 500 possède une section droite en forme générale de T, munie au niveau des bords libres de l'aile transversale du T de bourrelets d'enveloppe générale cylindrique, 514, 516.More specifically, according to the embodiment shown in the figures, the body 510 of the support flanges 500 has a cross section in the general shape of a T, provided at the free edges of the transverse wing of the T with generally cylindrical envelope beads , 514, 516.

Ces bourrelets 514, 516 s'étendent transversalement à la direction longitudinale des profilés 300. Les bourrelets 514, 516 sont destinés à s'engager dans des encoches 602 ménagées dans les éléments d'habillage 600.These beads 514, 516 extend transversely to the longitudinal direction of the sections 300. The beads 514, 516 are intended to engage in notches 602 formed in the covering elements 600.

Le cas échéant, un seul bourrelet cylindrique 514 peut être prévu sur les brides support 500.If necessary, a single cylindrical bead 514 can be provided on the support flanges 500.

On remarquera par ailleurs à l'examen des figures des fentes 518, 520, 522 et 524 ménagées dans les bourrelets cylindriques 514, 516 pour permettre le passage des nervures 310 et 312.It will also be noted on examining the figures of the slots 518, 520, 522 and 524 formed in the cylindrical beads 514, 516 to allow the passage of the ribs 310 and 312.

On va maintenant décrire la structure des éléments d'habillage constitués de caissons en tôle pliée représentés sur les figures.We will now describe the structure of the covering elements made up of folded sheet metal boxes shown in the figures.

Ces caissons 600 sont formés de tôle plane 604 verticale à l'utilisation, dont les bords sont pliés pour former d'une part, le long des bords verticaux, des retours latéraux 606, d'autre part le long des bords horizontaux des retours horizontaux 608 , avec rebord vertical 610.These boxes 600 are formed from flat sheet 604 vertical in use, the edges of which are folded to form on the one hand, along the vertical edges, lateral returns 606, on the other hand along the horizontal edges of the horizontal returns 608, with vertical edge 610.

Les encoches 602 précitées sont ménagées dans les retours latéraux verticaux 606.The aforementioned notches 602 are formed in the vertical lateral returns 606.

Ces encoches 602 ont de préférence la forme générale d'un c débouchant au niveau du bord libre du retour 606.These notches 602 preferably have the general shape of a c opening at the free edge of the return 606.

La largeur des retours latéraux 606 est supérieure à la largeur des retours horizontaux 608 de telle sorte que les retours 606 pénètrent à l'intérieur de la cavité 308 des profilés 300, tandis que le rebord vertical 610 vient en appui contre la face avant des profilés 300.The width of the lateral returns 606 is greater than the width of the horizontal returns 608 so that the returns 606 penetrate inside the cavity 308 of the profiles 300, while the vertical flange 610 comes to bear against the front face of the profiles 300.

On a représenté, sur la figure 9 annexée, différents cas de pose des pièces d'ancrage 100, des pièces de liaison intermédiaire 200 et des pièces de blocage 400 précitées.There is shown in Figure 9 attached, different cases of installation of anchor pieces 100, intermediate connecting pieces 200 and locking pieces 400 above.

Le mode de pose représenté en haut de la figure 9 correspond au cas de pose de la figure 7.The installation method represented at the top of FIG. 9 corresponds to the installation case of FIG. 7.

Le mode de pose représenté au milieu de la figure 9 correspond au cas de pose de la figure 6.The installation method represented in the middle of FIG. 9 corresponds to the installation case of FIG. 6.

Le mode de pose représenté en bas de la figure 9 correspond au cas de pose de la figure 8.The installation method represented at the bottom of FIG. 9 corresponds to the installation case of FIG. 8.

Comme cela apparaît à l'examen de la figure 9, les moyens de blocage 400 peuvent coopérer soit avec la rainure à bords convergents 314, soit avec la rainure à bords convergents 320.As it appears on examining FIG. 9, the locking means 400 can cooperate either with the groove with converging edges 314, or with the groove with converging edges 320.

La pièce de liaison intermédiaire 200 intercalée entre les pièces d'ancrage 100 et les profilés 300 peut être soit conforme au mode de réalisation représenté sur la figure 2 soit conforme au mode de réalisation représenté sur la figure 5.The intermediate connecting piece 200 interposed between the anchoring pieces 100 and the profiles 300 can either be in accordance with the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 or in accordance with the embodiment shown in FIG. 5.

Le système support conforme à la présente invention permet de supporter des éléments d'habillage de façade en regard de façade plane, en regard de façade présentant des angles sortants, ou encore en regard de façade présentant des angles entrants.The support system according to the present invention makes it possible to support facade cladding elements facing the planar facade, facing the facade having outgoing angles, or even facing the facade having incoming angles.

On remarquera par ailleurs à l'examen de la figure 10 que les brides support 500 peuvent être fixées soit en partie inférieure soit en partie supérieure des encoches 602 ménagées dans les caissons 600.It will also be noted on examining FIG. 10 that the support flanges 500 can be fixed either in the lower part or in the upper part of the notches 602 formed in the boxes 600.

L'examen des figures 6 à 10 montre que les éléments du système support conforme à la présente invention peuvent être agencés selon un grand nombre de variantes, ce qui permet avec un nombre limité de pièces et peu de stock de répondre à toutes les conditions d'utilisation requises sur chantier.Examination of Figures 6 to 10 shows that the elements of the support system according to the present invention can be arranged in a large number of variants, which allows with a limited number of parts and little stock to meet all the conditions of required on site.
