Description
La présente invention concerne des cloisons utilisables notamment pour la délimitation d'espaces dans des ensembles mobiliers du type bureaux paysagers.The present invention relates to usable partitions especially for the delimitation of spaces in sets landscape office furniture.
Parmi les caractéristiques que doivent comporter de telles cloisons, les principales que l'on peut citer sont :
- La légèreté, de manière à pouvoir reconfigurer le mobilier au gré des utilisateurs,
- Une sensation agréable au toucher, évitant par exemple des bruits de type tôle, voire permettant une légère absorption acoustique,
- L'écologie des produits, et
- La punaisabilité, car lorsque ces cloisons délimitent des espaces individualisés, elles servent de support à des affichages pouvant être indifféremment soit décoratifs, soit fonctionnels. L'usage s'est en effet répandu de garnir les parois verticales bordant un espace de travail de notes indiquant notamment les priorités à venir, et que l'on ajoute au fur et à mesure de l'arrivée des tâches, par exemple sur un espace réservé à cet usage.
- Lightness, so as to be able to reconfigure the furniture at the option of users,
- A pleasant feeling to the touch, avoiding for example sheet metal noises, or even allowing a slight acoustic absorption,
- Product ecology, and
- Punnability, because when these partitions delimit individualized spaces, they serve as a support for displays that can be either decorative or functional. The practice has indeed spread to garnish the vertical walls bordering a workspace with notes indicating in particular the priorities to come, and which are added as and when the tasks arrive, for example on a space reserved for this use.
La plupart des cloisons connues pour ce type d'utilisation sont composées schématiquement d'une âme centrale revêtue sur chaque face de tissu donnant une apparence esthétique convenable aux parois latérales, et elles sont souvent entourées d'un cadre pouvant jouer un rôle à la fois esthétique et fonctionnel. Dans la plupart des cas, le tissu est collé sur chaque face verticale du panneau central, lequel doit donc être prévu en un matériau adéquat, c'est-à-dire d'une part compatible avec l'utilisation de colle, et d'autre part sans défauts de surfaces. Cependant, s'il est punaisable, et donc mou, le panneau central ne doit pas pour autant se creuser sous l'effet de coups accidentels. Le choix de matériaux répondant à ces exigences se restreint alors considérablement, d'autant plus qu'il est souvent nécessaire d'y ajouter des contraintes de classement au feu. En outre, un tel procédé de fabrication est onéreux.Most of the partitions known for this type of use are schematically composed of a central core coated on each side of fabric giving an aesthetic appearance suitable for side walls, and they are often surrounded a framework that can play a role that is both aesthetic and functional. In most cases, the fabric is glued to each vertical side the central panel, which must therefore be made of a suitable material, that is to say on the one hand compatible with the use of glue, and on the other hand without surface defects. However, if it is tackable, and therefore soft, the sign central should not be dug under the effect of accidental blows. The choice of materials meeting these requirements is then limited considerably, especially since it is often necessary to add fire classification constraints. Furthermore, such a manufacturing process is expensive.
C'est pourquoi, selon une variante connue, des cloisons ont été construites en utilisant un procédé consistant à tendre le tissu sur un cadre prévu à cet effet, au niveau duquel s'effectue d'ailleurs la fixation des pièces de tissu latérales. Ainsi, on connait un panneau dont l'âme est à base de ciment et le cadre périphérique en aluminium brut, et dont le procédé de fixation du tissu repose sur un système d'agrafage après tension dudit tissu. Le cadre comporte deux bordures latérales externes repliées sur elles-mêmes de manière à pouvoir loger des lattes de bois longeant les bords du panneau, auxquelles est agrafée la périphérie de la pièce de tissu revêtant chaque façade.This is why, according to a known variant, partitions were built using a method of stretching the fabric over a frame provided for this effect, at the level of which is moreover the fixing of the pieces of fabric side. Thus, we know a panel whose core is based on cement and the raw aluminum peripheral frame, and the fabric fixing process is based on a stapling system after tensioning said fabric. The frame has two external side edges folded in on themselves so as to ability to accommodate wooden slats along edges of panel, to which stapled the periphery of the piece of fabric covering each facade.
La pose tendue sur cadre présente de nombreux avantages, et peut en particulier générer dans la plupart des cas un coût de production inférieur à la technologie précitée à base de collage. En outre, le choix des matériaux appropriés pour le panneau central proprement dit n'est plus déterminé par des critères techniques de compatibilité avec la pose collée (état de surface, collage ...), qui restreignent nécessairement la sélection possible. A l'inverse, l'absence de colle, impliquant une large ouverture du choix, permet de se concentrer sur des matériaux dotés de propriétés plus spécifiques, telles que la punaisabilité. Plus généralement, ce choix permet de répondre aux besoins précités avec une grande souplesse. Un choix judicieux peut même permettre de satisfaire à l'ensemble de ces besoins.Laying on a frame has many advantages, and can particular generate in most cases a production cost lower than the abovementioned bonding technology. In addition, the choice of materials suitable for the central panel itself is no longer determined by technical criteria of compatibility with the glued installation (surface finish, collage ...), which necessarily restrict the possible selection. Conversely, the absence of glue, implying a wide opening of choice, allows focus on materials with more specific properties, such as tackability. More generally, this choice meets needs mentioned above with great flexibility. A wise choice can even allow to meet all of these needs.
Dans la cloison de ce type connue de l'art antérieur, l'aluminium du cadre présente cependant une différence de teinte avec le panneau ou l'âme centrale, qui peut être visible à travers le tissu et à laquelle il faut remédier pour d'évidentes raisons esthétiques. La solution employée a été de placer une sous-couche souple sous le tissu, uniformisant ladite teinte.In the partition of this type known from the prior art, the aluminum of the frame however has a difference in color with the panel or core central, which can be seen through the tissue and needs to be remedied for obvious aesthetic reasons. The solution used was to place a flexible undercoat under the fabric, standardizing said shade.
De plus, ces cloisons, du fait de la nécessité d'un agrafage périphérique, impliquent des contraintes de fabrication qui compliquent le process industriel de production (voir, par exemple, US-A-5 086 606). In addition, these partitions, due to the need for peripheral stapling, involve manufacturing constraints that complicate the industrial process production (see, for example, US-A-5,086,606).
L'invention objet de la présente demande permet de remédier à ces inconvénients.The invention which is the subject of the present application makes it possible to remedy these disadvantages.
Ainsi, l'un des objectifs que se propose de résoudre cette invention est d'offrir une structure abaissant au maximum les coûts de production, et facilitant la fabrication de chaque panneau.Thus, one of the objectives that this invention proposes to solve is to offer a structure that lowers production costs as much as possible, and facilitating the manufacture of each panel.
Un autre objectif de l'invention est de supprimer l'inconvénient lié à la différence de couleurs entre le cadre métallique et le panneau formant l'âme centrale de la cloison.Another object of the invention is to eliminate the drawback associated with the color difference between the metal frame and the core panel center of the partition.
Un objectif encore est de rendre plus aisée l'opération de tension initiale des tissus revêtant les deux faces de chaque cloison, et de garantir la pérennité de ladite tension.Another objective is to make the initial tensioning operation easier. fabrics covering both sides of each partition, and guaranteeing the sustainability of said tension.
Enfin, l'invention propose une technique utilisant des éléments qui peuvent n'être choisis que parmi des matériaux recyclables.Finally, the invention proposes a technique using elements which can be chosen only from recyclable materials.
Ces objectifs sont atteints par une cloison comportant les caractéristiques de la revendication 1.These objectives are achieved by a partition comprising the features of
L'intérêt d'ajouter un profilé intermédiaire entre le panneau central et le cadre périphérique est multiple. Ainsi, le matériau utilisé pour ledit profilé peut être un matériau synthétique dont on peut choisir la teinte en fonction des panneaux, supprimant par conséquent l'inconvénient cité auparavant. Le choix de la couleur précède la fabrication du profilé proprement dit, qui est par exemple extrudé dans la teinte dans laquelle il sera employé. En outre, des matériaux comme le PVC sont extrêmement aisés à travailler et l'on peut concevoir des formes particulières, appliquées à des panneaux spéciaux, avec une grande souplesse et avec une grande facilité de mise en oeuvre.The advantage of adding an intermediate profile between the central panel and the peripheral frame is multiple. Thus, the material used for said profile can be a synthetic material whose shade can be chosen according to panels, thereby eliminating the above-mentioned drawback. The choice of the color precedes the production of the profile itself, which is example extruded in the shade in which it will be used. In addition, materials like PVC are extremely easy to work with and you can design specific shapes, applied to special panels, with great flexibility and with great ease of implementation.
Dans le cas au moins où une des bordures de la cloison est cintrée, on a recours à un profilé intermédiaire en métal, en aluminium peint ou en acier prélaqué cintrés. Dans une telle configuration, la structure est évidemment moins avantageuse du point de vue du coût, bien qu'elle reste compétitive par rapport à l'utilisation du collage.In the case at least where one of the edges of the partition is curved, we have use of an intermediate profile in metal, painted aluminum or steel curved prepainted. In such a configuration, the structure is obviously less cost-effective, although it remains competitive by compared to the use of collage.
Enfin, comme on le verra ci-après, l'utilisation d'un profilé intermédiaire placé entre le cadre périphérique et le panneau central de la cloison permet de s'affranchir de tout procédé de tension et de fixation des tissus difficile à mettre en oeuvre. Ce profilé est combiné audit cadre, lequel participe aux fonctions précitées.Finally, as will be seen below, the use of an intermediate profile placed between the peripheral frame and the central panel of the partition allows to get rid of any process of tension and fixation of tissues difficult to enforce. This profile is combined with said frame, which participates in aforementioned functions.
Ainsi, les moyens pour tendre et fixer les pièces de tissu latérales comprennent des moyens adhésifs fixés sur le profil externe du profilé et coopèrent avec les moyens pour fixer le cadre périphérique, lequel est emboíté dans ledit profil externe en coinçant les extrémités périphériques des pièces de tissu latérales.Thus, the means for tensioning and fixing the lateral pieces of fabric include adhesive means fixed to the external profile of the profile and cooperate with the means for fixing the peripheral frame, which is fitted into said external profile by wedging the peripheral ends of the side fabric pieces.
Cette structure permet d'améliorer la fixation effectuée par les moyens adhésifs proprement dits, qui sont donc doublés du coincement dû au cadre périphérique.This structure improves the fixation made by the actual adhesive means, which are therefore doubled with jamming due to the peripheral frame.
Plus précisément, le profil externe mentionné est avantageusement en forme de glissière périphérique dont les rebords situés de part d'autre de la lumière centrale sont plans et comportent des bandes adhésives double-face permettant de coller les pièces de tissu latérales, dont les extrémités périphériques sont insérées dans ladite glissière via la lumière centrale, et coincées par le cadre périphérique s'ajustant dans ladite lumière.More specifically, the external profile mentioned is advantageously in the form of a slide. peripheral whose edges located on either side of the central lumen are planes and have double-sided adhesive strips for sticking the lateral pieces of fabric, the peripheral ends of which are inserted in said slide via the central light, and trapped by the frame peripheral adjusting in said light.
De préférence, l'efficacité de la fixation des pièces de tissu latérales est encore renforcée par le fait que le cadre périphérique comporte, de part et d'autre de la partie s'emboítant dans la glissière, des zones planes venant au contact des rebords plans de la glissière, par tissu et bandes adhésives interposés.Preferably, the efficiency of fixing the lateral pieces of fabric is further enhanced. by the fact that the peripheral frame comprises, on either side of the part fitting into the slide, flat areas coming into contact with the edges slide plans, by fabric and interposed adhesive strips.
En somme, en vue d'assurer la tension et la fixation optimales des pièces de tissu latérales, il y a coopération des éléments suivants :
- moyens adhésifs spécifiques,
- deux profilés s'adaptant l'un à l'autre sur toute la largeur du chant des cloisons.
- specific adhesive means,
- two profiles adapting to each other over the entire width of the edge of the partitions.
En réalité, les différents moyens précités interagissent, et c'est leur effet cumulé qui procure un résultat optimal.In reality, the various aforementioned means interact, and this is their effect which gives an optimal result.
Le profilé intermédiaire comporte de préférence en outre, côté panneau central, un profil en U dans lequel s'ajuste au moins une partie centrale dudit panneau. Selon les cas, le panneau central peut en effet être mono ou multicouches.The intermediate profile preferably further comprises, on the central panel side, a profile U-shaped in which fits at least a central part of said panel. According to the cases, the central panel can indeed be mono or multilayer.
Ainsi, il peut comporter une âme formant barrière acoustique, située entre deux parements formant absorbeurs acoustiques.Thus, it may include a core forming an acoustic barrier, located between two facings forming acoustic absorbers.
Comme on l'a dit, l'absence de collage entre le panneau central et les tissus latéraux autorise une grande liberté dans le choix du ou des matériaux du panneau. Ceci est encore renforcé par l'existence du profilé intermédiaire, dont la souplesse de conception et de fabrication permet d'envisager une variété considérable de combinaisons.As we said, the lack of bonding between the central panel and the side fabrics allow great freedom in the choice of material (s) of the panel. This is further reinforced by the existence of the intermediate profile, whose flexibility of design and manufacturing makes it possible to envisage a considerable variety of combinations.
En outre, cette structure permet une séparation aisée des différents composants de la cloison notamment lors de son recyclage en fin de vie du produit : le cadre périphérique peut en effet glisser et sortir facilement du reste de la cloison. Le tissu se sépare au surplus aisément du panneau central. Enfin, le profilé intermédiaire, coincé sur le panneau central, se retire sans difficulté.In addition, this structure allows easy separation of the different components of the partition especially during its recycling at the end of the product: the peripheral frame can indeed slide out of the rest easily of the partition. The fabric is also easily separated from the central panel. Finally, the intermediate profile, wedged on the central panel, can be removed without difficulty.
Les composants sont mieux individualisés que dans les réalisations antérieures, en particulier le tissu qui n'est ni collé, ni agrafé.The components are better individualized than in the realizations anterior, in particular the fabric which is neither glued nor stapled.
On va maintenant procéder à une description plus détaillée d'une forme de réalisation de cloisons selon l'invention, en référence aux figures annexées, pour lesquelles :
- La figure 1 est une vue en coupe de l'ensemble des éléments formant une cloison, en cours de montage ;
- La figure 2 représente la même vue en coupe, lesdits éléments étant assemblés ;
- La figure 3 est une vue partielle, en perspective, d'une cloison dépourvue des pièces de tissu latérales, en cours de montage, et
- La figure 4 reprend la figure 1, avec une variante de panneau central.
- Figure 1 is a sectional view of all of the elements forming a partition, during assembly;
- Figure 2 shows the same sectional view, said elements being assembled;
- FIG. 3 is a partial perspective view of a partition devoid of the lateral pieces of fabric, during assembly, and
- Figure 4 reproduces Figure 1, with a variant of the central panel.
Les figures précédentes décrivent une configuration particulière de cloison, avec la variante de la figure 4. En référence à la figure 1, ladite cloison se compose essentiellement d'un panneau ou âme centrale (1) surmonté d'un profilé (2), recouvert à son tour par un cadre périphérique (3).The preceding figures describe a particular configuration of partition, with the variant of FIG. 4. With reference to FIG. 1, said partition is essentially consists of a central panel or core (1) surmounted by a profile (2), in turn covered by a peripheral frame (3).
Le profilé comporte deux canaux (4, 5) regardant respectivement vers l'intérieur et vers l'extérieur. Le canal (4) est destiné à se fixer sur le panneau central (1) et prend la forme d'un U. Le canal extérieur (5) est une glissière dotée de deux rebords externes (6, 7) plans et d'une lumière centrale (8).The profile has two channels (4, 5) respectively looking towards inside and out. The channel (4) is intended to be fixed on the panel central (1) and takes the form of a U. The outer channel (5) is a slide with two planar outer edges (6, 7) and a central light (8).
Sur chacun desdits rebords (6, 7) est fixée une bande adhésive double-face (9, 10) occupant pratiquement toute la largeur du rebord (6, 7), et permettant la tension - fixation des pièces de tissu latérales (T1, T2), dont les extrémités sont insérées à l'intérieur du canal (5) via la lumière (8).On each of said edges (6, 7) is fixed a double-sided adhesive strip (9, 10) occupying practically the entire width of the rim (6, 7), and allowing tension - fixing of lateral fabric pieces (T1, T2), including ends are inserted inside the channel (5) via the lumen (8).
L'ensemble est recouvert par le cadre (3), qui vient s'ajuster dans la lumière (8) et, simultanément, reposer sur les rebords (6, 7), eux-mêmes recouverts des bandes adhésives (9, 10) et des extrémités périphériques des pièces de tissu tendues (T1, T2). La direction d'assemblage du cadre (3) est signifiée par les flèches blanches.The whole is covered by the frame (3), which adjusts in the light (8) and, simultaneously, rest on the edges (6, 7), themselves covered adhesive strips (9, 10) and peripheral ends of the parts stretched tissue (T1, T2). The direction of assembly of the frame (3) is signified by the white arrows.
La figure 2 montre les éléments précités en position assemblée, c'est-à-dire au contact les uns des autres. Pour la clarté du dessin, on a néanmoins préservé un espace entre les pièces de tissu (T1, T2) et le profilé (2) ou le cadre (3), alors qu'en réalité, la tolérance d'ajustement dudit cadre (3) dans la glissière est bien plus serrée, de même que les pièces de tissu (T1, T2) sont directement au contact du profilé (2).Figure 2 shows the aforementioned elements in the assembled position, i.e. in contact with each other. For the clarity of the drawing, however, preserved a space between the pieces of fabric (T1, T2) and the profile (2) or the frame (3), when in reality, the adjustment tolerance of said frame (3) in the slide is much tighter, as are the pieces of fabric (T1, T2) directly in contact with the profile (2).
La figure 3 permet de se faire une idée plus précise des éléments composant la cloison, hormis les pièces de tissu (T1, T2), en trois dimensions. On observe notamment que les moyens adhésifs sont des bandes d'adhésif double-face (9, 10) simplement déroulées le long des rebords (6, 7) du profilé (2). Les surfaces latérales du profilé (2) sont dans le prolongement direct des grandes surfaces du panneau central (1). Par conséquent, même lorsqu'il y a couverture par un tissu, il est clair que si les teintes de ces deux éléments sont différentes, cela apparaítra dans la plupart des cas.Figure 3 gives a more precise idea of the elements composing the partition, except the pieces of fabric (T1, T2), in three dimensions. It is observed in particular that the adhesive means are strips of adhesive double-sided (9, 10) simply unwound along the edges (6, 7) of the profile (2). The lateral surfaces of the profile (2) are a direct extension of the large areas of the central panel (1). Therefore, even when there is cover by a fabric, it is clear that if the hues of these two elements are different, it will appear in most cases.
D'où la nécessité de peindre les cadres en aluminium des dispositifs collés de l'art antérieur. Avec le système de l'invention, on se contente dans la plupart des cas d'extruder un matériau déjà dans la teinte adéquate.Hence the need to paint the aluminum frames of the glued devices of the prior art. With the system of the invention, we are content in the most cases of extruding material already in the correct shade.
Parmi les autres avantages de l'invention, il faut revenir sur la configuration du cadre qui recouvre la totalité des rebords (6, 7) : à l'inverse de panneaux de l'art antérieur, l'adhésif n'est plus accessible, et ne peut être vu à travers le tissu. Or, on sait que lesdites bandes adhésives subissent un vieillissement, dû par exemple au rayonnement ultraviolet ou à des nettoyages successifs, et peuvent changer de couleur, puis devenir visibles avec le temps. Avec le système de l'invention, l'adhésif est mieux protégé, et il n'est de toute façon plus visible. En outre, il ne peut entrer en contact avec des agents nettoyants, ni être accessible aux rayonnements.Among the other advantages of the invention, it is necessary to return to the configuration of the frame which covers all the edges (6, 7): unlike panels of prior art, the adhesive is no longer accessible, and cannot be seen through the fabric. However, it is known that said adhesive tapes undergo aging due to for example ultraviolet radiation or successive cleanings, and may change color and then become visible over time. With the system of the invention, the adhesive is better protected, and it is not anyway more visible. In addition, it cannot come into contact with cleaning agents, nor be accessible to radiation.
La cloison de l'invention ne nécessite pas de couche supplémentaire entre le tissu et le panneau central, et pas de procédé de fixation onéreux du type agrafage.The partition of the invention does not require an additional layer between fabric and central panel, and no expensive fastening method of the type stapling.
La configuration particulière des profils en vis-à-vis sur le cadre (3) et sur le profilé (2) aboutit au surplus à réaliser une aide à la pose des tissus, puisque l'ensemble est maintenu dès que ledit cadre (3) est posé.The particular configuration of the facing profiles on the frame (3) and on the profile (2) moreover leads to an aid in laying the fabrics, since the assembly is maintained as soon as said frame (3) is installed.
Enfin, la pose de l'adhésif est beaucoup plus rapide que dans le passé, du fait de la structure du profilé qui se prête particulièrement bien à la pose linéaire d'une bande sur ses deux rebords (6, 7) latéraux. En fait, la pose de l'adhésif a lieu en sortie de l'extrusion, d'où une optimisation du process industriel.Finally, the installation of the adhesive is much faster than in the past, the made of the structure of the profile which lends itself particularly well to laying linear of a strip on its two lateral edges (6, 7). In fact, the laying of the adhesive takes place at the exit of the extrusion, hence an optimization of the process industrial.
Par ailleurs, le cadre 3 peut encore s'appliquer à une structure classique
avec deux parements latéraux (en tôle ou panneaux classiques) sur lesquels
on colle le tissu, lesdits parements étant alors appliqués de part et d'autre de la
portion verticale dudit cadre 3, et réunis par exemple par un réseau alvéolaire
intermédiaire permettant leur assemblage.Furthermore, the
A ce titre, il faut noter que les deux techniques précitées, à savoir la pose
tendue et collée, donnent des résultats qui sont identiques vus de l'extérieur,
d'où une possibilité de les combiner, notamment utilisable pour des formes
non rectangulaires de panneaux. En effet, la pose tendue n'est possible
qu'avec des bordures rectilignes, du fait de l'existence du profilé extrudé en
plastique, pratiquement impossible à cintrer. Pour les cloisons à bordures
supérieures galbées, on a donc recours à l'ancienne technique à tissus collés,
à moins d'utiliser un profilé intermédiaire 2 en aluminium peint ou en acier
prélaqué cintrés, qui permet également l'utilisation de la pose tendue, comme
indiqué auparavant, mais n'a pas tous les avantages du plastique.As such, it should be noted that the two aforementioned techniques, namely laying
stretched and glued, give identical results when viewed from the outside,
hence a possibility of combining them, in particular usable for shapes
non-rectangular panels. Indeed, stretched laying is not possible
with straight edges, due to the existence of the extruded profile in
plastic, practically impossible to bend. For curved partitions
curved upper, so we use the old technique with glued fabrics,
unless using an
La variante de la figure 4 montre une des multiples combinaisons possibles, avec une âme (11) formant barrière acoustique et deux parements (12, 13) latéraux absorbant les ondes acoustiques. Cette version impose également une variante au profilé (2').The variant in Figure 4 shows one of the multiple combinations possible, with a core (11) forming an acoustic barrier and two facings (12, 13) lateral absorbing acoustic waves. This version requires also a variant to the profile (2 ').
Avec le même cadre 3, il est encore possible de n'installer qu'une unique
plaque translucide, en verre ou en plastique, ou encore une plaque en
matériau magnétique (non représentées), installée directement sur le cadre 3,
sans recourir à un profilé intermédiaire 2.With the
Bien entendu, les variantes de forme et de structure, pour autant qu'elles sont couvertes par les revendications annexées, font partie de l'invention.Of course, the variants of form and structure, insofar as they are covered by the The appended claims form part of the invention.
