Definitions

  • This invention relates to a panel system and particularly to non-permanent panel systems used at exhibitions and conferences or for use as scenery in television studios and theatres or at point-of-sale locations to provide a surface to create a scene or as a surface on which to display pictures or graphics.
  • FR-A-2138699 discloses a modular structural system comprising components formed from substantially rectangular sheets of material, which may be cardboard, folded along fold axes adjacent opposite edges thereof to form sides, apertures being formed in the sides and receiving connecting elements which connect adjacent components to each other.
  • a panel structure comprising panels formed from substantially rectangular sheets of cardboard or like material folded along fold axes adjacent opposite edges thereof to form sides, apertures being provided in the sides and receiving connecting elements which connect adjacent panels to each other, characterised in that the apertures each have a dovetail shape and open at the edges through respective mouths which are narrower than the greatest width of the apertures, each connecting element comprising a sheet of said cardboard or like material folded along a longitudinal fold line, each connecting element having slots of a width approximately the same as two thicknesses of the panels, the connecting elements being received in the apertures with the slots receiving respective overlying sides of adjacent ones of the panels, thereby to secure the panels together.
  • Preferably more than one of said apertures is provided on each edge, vertically spaced from one another so that more than one connecting element may be employed to improve the strength of the panel structure.
  • a panel structure in accordance with the present invention may be very simple and consequently light and inexpensive. It has the necessary rigidity for most temporary purposes and if constructed from substantial material could be used for more permanent structures. If constructed from cardboard, a structure according to the present invention can be modified or profiled using a sharp knife or fine saw.
  • a wall structure 10 comprises a series of wall panels 12 joined by connecting elements 14.
  • Each element 12,14 is constructed from a sheet of three ply cardboard or like material, preferably with a quality finish on one face, and rendered fire retardent by appropriate treatment. Alternatively appropriate plastics laminates may be employed.
  • Each panel and connecting element is cut to blanks as shown in Figs. 3 and 4 respectively.
  • Each panel 12 is provided with fold lines or axes 16 adjacent each long edge 18, 20 to form sides 50, 52 respectively.
  • Four apertures in the form of dovetail slots 22,24, a,b,c,d are cut in the edges 18,20 at corresponding positions in two pairs a,b and c,d adjacent to each end of the panel.
  • Each connecting element 14 is provided with a central longditudinal fold line 30.
  • Each long edge 32,34 is provided with line slots 36,38 a,b,c,d separated by a distance corresponding to the separation between the fold axes 16 on the panel 12.
  • the distance x between the base of each line slot 36,38 and the central fold line 30, is arranged to be approximately the same as the depth y of the dovetail slots 22,24.
  • the depth w of the line slots 36,38 is arranged to be approximately the same as the radial distance z from the base of the dovetail slots 22,24, in the direction of their side edges, to the adjacent fold axes 16.
  • the width r of the line slots 36,38 is arranged to be approximately the same as two thicknesses of the panels 12. Also, the width s of the opening to each dovetail slot 22,24 is arranged to be larger than two thicknesses of the connecting element 14 (equivalent to the separation t of the fold line 30, which is arranged as a pair of folds). This is achieved by parallel cuts 33 at the opening of each dovetail slot.
  • edge 18 of one panel 12 is then aligned with the edge 20 of the next panel so that the dovetail slots 22, a,b,c,d and 24 a,b,c,d of adjacent panels are aligned with one another.
  • a connecting element 14 is then folded flat along its longitudinal fold line pair 30 and inserted into the mouths 33 which connect adjacent dovetail slot pairs 22,24a to the edges of the sheets (fold line 30 entering last). Further connecting elements may be inserted in dovetail slot pairs 22,24, b,c, and d.
  • Each connecting element 14 is inserted so that each line slot 36, now paired with adjacent line slots 38, are engaged with the base of each dovetail slot pair until the edges 32,34 abut the back face 54 of each panel 12.
  • the mouths 35 of the line slots 36,38 may be chamfered to ease insertion.
  • the connecting element 14 may then be opened within the confines of the dovetail while being coaxed further into engagement against the end face 54, and until the position shown in the drawings is achieved.
  • thumb slots 43 are cut in its edges. With the dimensions given as above, this results in the fold lines 30 lying flush with the edges 18,20 of the panels.
  • each connecting element 14 is retained in position by the dovetail slots 22,24 and, for most practical purposes, the connecting elements are held firmly in place. This is further aided by notches 39 in each corner of the dovetail slots which catch and locate the base of each line slot when the connecting elements are opened. More importantly however, each panel 12 is now locked to the next by the line slots 36,38 in each connecting element gripping adjoining sides 50,52 of adjacent panels, hence the relative dimension r and the thicknesses of two panels.
  • the result is a panel structure 10 which has a satisfactory frontal appearance and which can be extended by as many panels 12 as required.
  • FIG. 7 to 11 A preferred alternative embodiment of the present invention is shown in Figures 7 to 11. This has a similar structure and assembly technique to the first embodiment described above. Consequently like parts are given the same reference numeral, except with an apostrophe where they differ from the first embodiment.
  • dovetail slots 22',24' have been reversed from their orientation in the first embodiment, so that their major dimension, rather than their narrow dimension, is now adjacent the mouth 33'.
  • a modified form of connecting element 14' is employed, which has line slots 36',38', as before, but also centre slots or apertures 37 a to j.
  • each line slot 36',38' is arranged to be the same as the width z' of the return 41.
  • the depth p of the centre aperture on either side of the fold line 30' is arranged to be approximately the same as the distance q from the base 45 of the dovetail slot, in the direction of its tapering edges, to the adjacent fold axes 16. Indeed, the tapering edges, if they did not terminate at the base 45, are so arranged that they would otherwise meet at the fold axis 16.
  • the centre apertures 37 which have the width r' arranged to be approximately the same as two thicknesses of the panels 12.
  • the line slots 36',38' may likewise have a width r" which is the same as two thicknesses of panels, but this is not critical as will be apparent from the description below.
  • a connecting element 14' is folded along its longditudinal fold line 30' and inserted into the mouths 33' of the dovetail slot pairs 22',24a (fold line 30' first). Further connecting elements are inserted in the remaining slot pairs 22,24, b,c, and d.
  • each connecting element 14' is inserted so that each centre aperture 37, which by virtue of the folding of the element now forms a slot, is engaged over the base 45 of each dovetail slot pair 22,24.
  • the connecting element 14 By allowing the connecting element 14 to partially unfold, the line slots 36',38' engage the return 41 so that the connecting element 14' is locked in the dovetail slots 22',24'.
  • the natural resilience of the material of the connecting elements springs them apart so that they keep engaged with the returns 41.
  • each panel element 12' is firmly locked to the next by both the centre apertures 37 and the line slots 36',38'.
  • the connection is stonger than the first embodiment because the centre apertures 37, when they are folded in half, are much stronger than the line apertures 36,38 of the first embodiment.
  • the line slots 36 and 38 work independently of one another, while here, the centre aperture forms two slots which each support and reinforce the other.
  • a modified panel 80 may be employed at strategic points and which has a central fold line 82.
  • the sides 50',52' of the panels are inserted into otherwise vacant line slots 36',38' (and centre apertures 37 in this case of the second embodiment shown in Figure 13).
  • the line slots and centre apertures are located at spacings equal to half the separation between the fold axes 16 on the panels 12, and not the full separation as shown in Figures 1 to 6.
  • this spacing, and the modified panel 80 are equally applicable to the first embodiment.
  • the face of the panel element projects from the surface of the panel structure increasing the depth of the structure and thus its stability.
  • Figure 13 also illustrates a joint between two walls which is easily achieved by the joining method of the present invention and which further improves the stability of the panel structure.
  • Figures 14 to 17 show special corner units 112,112', reinforced by gussets 90,100.
  • the gusset 90 comprises a sheet of cardboard or like material having two support edges 92,93 at an angle A with respect to one another. In this case the angle A is a right angle.
  • the support edges 92,93 are themselves supported by tab pairs 94,96 whose function is explained further below.
  • At an angle B (which is always substantially a right angle) to the edges 92,93 are abutment edges 95,98, which are each provided with tongues 97.
  • the tongues 97 have press-out tabs 99 formed in them.
  • a panel 12 is then folded centrally about its fold line 82; in Figure 15, this is internally at the angle A.
  • the tab pairs 94,96 are then folded, one up, one down, on each of four gussets 90. These are offered up to the folded panel and the tongues 97 are pressed through apertures 23 provided for this purpose in each side 50,52 of the panels 12 (see also Figure 3).
  • the length m of the slots 23 is slightly less than the width of the tongues 97 so that barbs 101 on the tongues engage the edges of the apertures 23 after being pushed through them.
  • the tabs 99 may be bent downwardly to further ensure that the tongues remain firmly engaged in the apertures 23.
  • a corner unit 112 so-formed can easily be connected to the end of a panel stucture 12a. This is achieved by pushing the tongues 97 through the corresponding apertures 23 of the adjoining panel 12a.
  • the separation d of the barbs 101 and the tabs 99 from the respective abutment edges 95,98 are arranged to be twice the thickness of the panels 12.
  • the dovetail slots of the corner unit 112 and the adjoining panel 12a are of course aligned so that connecting elements (not shown) can further secure the two components together.
  • Figures 18 and 19 show two possible arrangements employing the second embodiment of the present invention.
  • a double-ply panel structure 10" is formed from two panels 12b and 12c arranged backto-back.
  • the two panel plys are secured together by a connecting element 14" which is in the form of two connecting elements 14'a,14'b joined edge to edge at 85.
  • the parts 14'a and 14'b of the element 14" also secure together the individual panels in each ply.
  • the element 14" is, of course, a single component. It adopts a diamond configuration when in use.
  • Figures 18 and 19 also show the use of special end panels 12d which enable wall ends and corners to be provided for this double ply structure.
  • Figure 20b is a plan view of the blank for panel 12d, which has the same dimensions, and has the same dovetail slots 22',24' and fold axes 16, as the panel 12' of Figure 8. However, it has extra fold lines 16' and 16".
  • the former when employed, allow the panel to be used as shown at 12d in Figures 18 and 19, while the latter allow the panel to be used as shown at 80 in Figure 18, or indeed as panel 80 in Figure 13.
  • Figures 20a and 21 illustrate a further special end panel 70, which is provided with one side 72 shaped in an identical fashion to sides 50',52' of the panel element 12' of Figure 8.
  • Fold lines 74a,b, and c are positioned equidistant to each other at a distance equal to the width of side 72.
  • Fold line 76 is ideally positioned at a distance from fold line 74c equal to the width of side 72 less the thickness of one panel.
  • Dovetail cuts 78a,b,c,d are provided along the edge of side 80 spaced to correspond to the final positions of connecting elements 14' in a completed panel structure.
  • the special end panel element 70 is attached to a panel structure 10' by means of its dovetail slots 22' on side 72.
  • Dovetail cuts 78a,b,c,d are positioned over the exposed edges of connecting elements 14' which are temporarily sqeezed together to allow insertion into mouths 82 of each dovetail cut.
  • Figures 23 and 24 show a special connecting element 14", and a curved panel structure 10"' which is created when the element 14" is employed in single ply panel structures.
  • the connecting eluant is used in exactly the same way, but it is provided with inclined centre apertures 37' at each end. When folded along centre fold line 30", the inclined apertures 37' become inclined slots. In Figure 23, they are inclined inwardly, and form inwardly directed wall joints as shown in Figure 24. Outwardly inclined slots would form convex wall structures.
  • the connecting element 14" is long enough to join only one panel 12' to a single neighbour on either side. To form curves, each neighbour must likewise be connected to their neighbours by the special connecting elements 14".
