Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fastening system for compact panels made of one or more fiber layers which are hot-pressed together and impregnated with resin and which are coated on the outside on at least one side with a decorative layer, for invisible mounting on a base body.
  • compact sheets especially so-called HPL (high pressure laminate) compact sheets
  • HPL high pressure laminate
  • compact panels also includes panels that have a structure very similar to the DIN or ISO standard.
  • the components of such compact sheets are made from the same materials in the same high-pressure presses as all HPL sheets and, depending on the molding process, contain adhesive layers from case to case.
  • the decorative coloring of the compact panel on one or both sides can be carried out on a smooth or structured surface.
  • HPL compact panels The core of HPL compact panels is very strong and can therefore absorb large forces without breaking or deforming.
  • Such panels are used in particular for facade and wall cladding due to their high weather and shape stability, care being taken to ensure that the panels are fastened is invisible from the outside on a wall or a body.
  • Such invisible fastenings have so far been realized for HPL compact panels in such a way that these panels are glued or fastened by means of screws.
  • screw connections these are made directly with the compact panels, with the dowels generally being inserted in the panels.
  • the connection to the wall behind or to the basic body located behind is made via brackets.
  • the screw connections are generally made using dowels in the panels.
  • tongue and groove connections or guide grooves and slides in engagement therewith which have the same cross-section as the guide groove and are fitted into them .
  • the object of the invention is a for panels that are used for weatherproof cladding To create fastening system in which the plates can be fastened over the entire size of their format and a largely tension-free connection of plates and the wall or base body behind it is made possible.
  • the fastening system consists of a profile that connects the compact plates and a wall or a base body, and that in the sides of the base plate facing the base body are milled, the cross-sections of which sections with the Profiles cover.
  • the individual milling has a depth that is in the range from one third to half the thickness d of the compact plate and the milling extends over part or over the entire dimension of the compact plate.
  • the invention is further developed in such a way that the milling has a dovetail cross section and receives a dovetail section of the profile.
  • the compact plates are freely movable in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the profile, so that the thermal and hygroscopic differences in the materials occurring due to different materials of the compact plate and wall or base body are recorded and can be compensated.
  • the profile depending on the milling and profile dimensioning as well as the profile material, there is an increase in the bending stiffness of the combination compact plate - profile, in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the profile, perpendicular to the plate surface. Correct dimensioning keeps the connection between the compact panel - profile - wall or base body tension-free.
  • a compact plate 3 has a milling 5 in the lower part with a dovetail cross section.
  • the milling 5 extends over the entire length of the compact plate 3 or only over a section of the compact plate, as is indicated in FIG. 1 by the dashed lines.
  • a profile 2 is composed of two sections 10 and 20, with one section 20 one upside down L-shaped cross section.
  • the other section 10 connects centrally to the horizontal leg of section 20 and has a dovetail cross-section that can be inserted seamlessly into the milling 5 of the compact plate 3.
  • the section 20 can be positively inserted into an incision 24 in a base body 4.
  • This base body 4 is, for example, a U-shaped metal support, which is arranged vertically in a steel frame, which defines the outline of a house or which is attached to the wall of a building or a room as a substructure for the wall covering.
  • the incision 24 is located in the two side walls 23 of the base body 4.
  • the material of the profile 2 is generally different from the material of the compact plate 3, which consists of one or more resin-impregnated fiber layers which form the core of the compact plate.
  • the two outer sides of this core are each covered with a decorative plate. Decorative layer coated.
  • FIG 2 shows a detail and on an enlarged scale, the fastening system 1 with the profile 2 and the compact plate 3.
  • the section 10 of the profile 2 is inserted.
  • the outline or cross section of the section 10 is also dovetail-shaped and inserts without play.
  • the milling 5 has a depth t which is in the range from one third to half the thickness d, cf. Figures 2 and 3a, the compact plate.
  • the small depth of the milling 5 is possible because the core of the compact plate 3 has great strength, so that even such a small depth ensures a mechanically very stable connection of the profile 2 to the compact plate 3.
  • the profile 2 is inserted with its portion 10 laterally into the milling 5.
  • the length of the profile 2 can be chosen so that it extends over a partial length, the total length of a compact plate or over two or more compact plates.
  • the profile 2 can also be connected to a base body or to a wall in a different way than shown in FIG. 1. For example, it is possible to screw section 20 of profile 2 to any number of fastening points with a wall or a base body. Due to the connection between profile 2 and the compact plate 3, similar to a tongue and groove connection, the assembly is largely stress-free if the cross sections are dimensioned correctly.
  • an increase in the bending rigidity in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the profile (or milling) of the compact plate 3 perpendicular to its surface is obtained by connecting these two parts.
  • the compact plate 3 can move freely in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the profile or the milling 5, so that differences in the thermal and hygroscopic effects of the different materials for the profile 2 and the compact plate 3 can be absorbed and compensated for.
  • FIGS. 3a to 3d show different fastening systems, in which the compact plates and the profiles are adapted to one another.
  • the depth of the milling 5 is one third of the thickness d of the compact plate 3.
  • Figure 3b shows a fastening system 1, in which an end piece of a profile 14 is V-shaped and sections 11, 11 form the end sections of the V-shape.
  • the opening angle ⁇ of the V shape is 50 up to 100 °.
  • the milling 17, 17 consists of two cross sections 7, 7, which are arranged in mirror image to a perpendicular to the compact plate 3 and which are oblique to the surface of the Compact plate 3 run. These cross sections also form an angle of 50 to 100 ° with one another and take up the square-shaped sections 11, 11 of the profile 14.
  • the depth of the milling 17, 17 is approximately half the thickness d / 2 of the compact plate 3.
  • the end faces of the sections 11, 11 are oriented obliquely to the surface of the compact plate 3.
  • the fastening system 1 according to FIG. 3c is formed from a compact plate 3 and a profile 15, the end piece of which has a shape similar to a two-pronged fork.
  • the central piece 20 of the profile 15, which runs vertically in FIG. 3c, is adjoined by sections 12, 12 which run obliquely upwards and downwards.
  • the end faces 21, 21 of the partial surface 12, 12 are oriented obliquely with respect to the surface of the compact plate 3.
  • the middle piece 20 of the profile 15 ends with the surface of the compact plate 3.
  • the angle enclosed by the two sections 12, 12 can be in the range from 60 to 120 °.
  • a milling 18, 18 is provided therein from two cross sections 8, 8 arranged in mirror image to a perpendicular to the compact plate. These cross sections 8, 8 run obliquely and enclose the same angle as the sections 12, 12 with each other. The depth of the milling 18, 18 is half the thickness d / 2 of the compact plate 3.
  • FIG. 3d A further fastening system 1 is shown in FIG. 3d, which is configured similarly to that according to FIG. 3c.
  • a profile 16 has a fork-shaped, two-pronged shape with a vertical center piece 23 and adjoining sections 13, 13 which run obliquely upwards and downwards.
  • the end faces 22, 22 of the sections 13, 13 are aligned parallel to the surface of the compact plate 3.
  • a milling 19, 19 is adapted to the orientation of the sections 13, 13 of the profile 16.
  • the milling 19, 19 has a depth equal to a third of the thickness d of the compact plate 3.
  • the center piece 23 of the profile 16 lies against the surface of the plate 3.
  • fastening system consisting of profile and compact plate also deviating from the shapes and cross sections shown in the exemplary embodiments without deviating from the subject matter of the invention.
  • the fastening system according to the invention is not limited to the use of compact plates of the type described, rather it is also suitable for other plate materials.
