Description

L'invention concerne les façades de bâtiment, les ensembles pour leur construction et leurs procédés de construction.The invention relates to building facades, together for their construction and their processes construction.

On connaít des façades de bâtiment dites "légères" comportant des éléments de façade de faible masse, comprenant une âme alvéolaire en matériau synthétique. La façade comporte des organes de fixation tels que des lisses horizontales de grandes dimensions reliées au bâtiment. Chaque élément de façade est fixé à plusieurs lisses supportant plusieurs éléments de façade.We know so-called "light" building facades with low mass facade elements, comprising a honeycomb core of synthetic material. The facade has fasteners such as horizontal beams of large dimensions connected to the building. Each element of front is fixed to several beams supporting several facade elements.

Ce type de façade a pour inconvénient que les organes de fixation qui sont pesants et de grandes dimensions sont malaisés à transporter, à manipuler et à installer.This type of facade has the disadvantage that the organs which are heavy and of large dimensions are difficult to transport, handle and install.

Un but de l'invention est de fournir une façade qui soit plus facile à construire.An object of the invention is to provide a facade which be easier to build.

En vue de la réalisation de ce but, on prévoit selon l'invention une façade de bâtiment, comportant des premiers éléments de façade fixés au bâtiment et comprenant chacun une âme alvéolaire, et des deuxièmes éléments de façade, les premiers et deuxièmes éléments de façade étant disposés sensiblement dans un même plan, dans laquelle les deuxièmes éléments de façade sont fixés aux premiers éléments de façade et seulement à ceux-ci.In order to achieve this goal, provision is made according to the invention a building facade, comprising first façade elements fixed to the building and each comprising a honeycomb core, and second facade elements, first and second facade elements being arranged substantially in the same plane, in which the second façade elements are attached to the first façade elements and only to these.

Ainsi, les organes de fixation sont reliés seulement aux premiers éléments de façade. On peut donc modifier la forme et/ou les dimensions des organes de fixation pour les rendre plus faciles à manipuler. On peut par exemple réduire leurs dimensions à des dimensions voisines ou inférieures aux dimensions des premiers éléments de façade.So the fasteners are connected only to the first facade elements. We can therefore modify the shape and / or dimensions of the fasteners for the make it easier to handle. We can for example reduce their dimensions to dimensions close to or less than dimensions of the first facade elements.

Avantageusement, chaque deuxième élément de façade est fixé à quatre premiers éléments de façade.Advantageously, each second facade element is attached to the first four facade elements.

Ainsi, on obtient une fixation particulièrement fiable des deuxièmes éléments de façade aux premiers éléments de face.Thus, we obtain a particularly fastening reliable from the second facade elements to the first elements front.

Avantageusement, les premiers éléments de façade sont disposés suivant des rangées parallèles entre elles et les deuxièmes éléments de façade sont disposés suivant des rangées parallèles aux rangées des premiers éléments de façade.Advantageously, the first facade elements are arranged in parallel rows between them and the second facade elements are arranged in rows parallel to the rows of the first facade elements.

Avantageusement, les premiers éléments de façade sont fixés à des planchers du bâtiment.Advantageously, the first facade elements are attached to building floors.

Avantageusement, chaque premier élément de façade est fixé à au moins deux planchers s'étendant à des niveaux différents.Advantageously, each first facade element is attached to at least two floors extending to levels different.

Ainsi, on obtient une fixation particulièrement fiable des premiers éléments de façade au bâtiment.Thus, we obtain a particularly fastening reliable of the first façade elements to the building.

Avantageusement, chaque premier élément de façade a une dimension suivant une direction perpendiculaire aux planchers égale à n fois une distance séparant des faces homologues de deux planchers adjacents l'un de l'autre suivant cette direction, n étant un entier supérieur ou égal à 1.Advantageously, each first facade element has a dimension in a direction perpendicular to floors equal to n times a distance between faces counterparts from two adjacent floors next to each other this direction, n being an integer greater than or equal to 1.

Ainsi, on peut fabriquer des premiers éléments de façade et des organes de fixation au bâtiment identiques entre eux, ce qui réduit leur prix de revient.Thus, we can manufacture the first elements of identical facade and fixing elements to the building them, which reduces their cost price.

Avantageusement, la façade comporte des premiers organes de fixation des premiers éléments de façade au bâtiment, les premiers organes de fixation ayant des dimensions inférieures à une plus grande dimension des premiers éléments de façade.Advantageously, the facade includes first fasteners for the first façade elements to building, the first fasteners having dimensions smaller than a larger dimension of first facade elements.

Ainsi, on facilite la manutention des premiers organes de fixation.This facilitates the handling of the first fasteners.

Avantageusement, chaque premier élément de façade comporte au moins une pièce rigide fixée à l'âme alvéolaire, les premiers organes de fixation étant fixés aux pièces rigides.Advantageously, each first facade element comprises at least one rigid part fixed to the cellular core, the first fasteners being fixed to the parts rigid.

Ainsi, on renforce la résistance mécanique des premiers éléments de façade dans la zone de fixation au bâtiment.Thus, the mechanical resistance of the first facade elements in the area of attachment to the building.

Avantageusement, la façade comporte des deuxièmes organes de fixation des deuxièmes éléments de façade aux premiers éléments de façade, les deuxièmes organes de fixation étant fixés aux pièces rigides. Advantageously, the facade has second fasteners for the second facade elements to the first facade elements, the second fixing elements being attached to rigid parts.

Ainsi, on renforce la résistance mécanique des premiers éléments de façade dans la zone de fixation des deuxièmes éléments de façade.Thus, the mechanical resistance of the first facade elements in the fixing area of the second facade elements.

Avantageusement, chaque premier organe de fixation comporte des moyens de réglage d'une position angulaire du premier organe de fixation par rapport à une face du bâtiment suivant au moins une direction.Advantageously, each first fixing member includes means for adjusting an angular position of the first fastener relative to a face of the building following at least one direction.

Ainsi, on peut facilement fixer cet organe de fixation avec une position proche de la position souhaitée.So we can easily fix this fixing with a position close to the desired position.

Avantageusement, les moyens de réglage sont adaptés à permettre le réglage de la position angulaire du premier organe de fixation par rapport à la face du bâtiment suivant deux directions perpendiculaires l'une à l'autre.Advantageously, the adjustment means are adapted to allow adjustment of the angular position of the first fastener relative to the face of the next building two directions perpendicular to each other.

Ainsi, on peut fixer le premier organe de fixation avec une précision accrue.Thus, the first fixing member can be fixed with increased precision.

Avantageusement, les moyens de réglage comportent au moins un logement fileté ménagé dans le premier organe de fixation et au moins une vis engagée dans ce logement, le premier organe de fixation présentant deux portions de contact disposées en formant un triangle avec la vis, les portions de contact et la vis étant adaptées à venir en contact avec la face du bâtiment.Advantageously, the adjustment means comprise at minus a threaded housing formed in the first member of fixing and at least one screw engaged in this housing, the first fixing member having two contact portions arranged in a triangle with the screw, the portions of contact and the screw being adapted to come into contact with the opposite the building.

Avantageusement, les portions de contact sont constituées par deux vis engagées dans un deuxième et un troisième logements filetés du premier organe de fixation.Advantageously, the contact portions are constituted by two screws engaged in a second and a third threaded housing of the first fixing member.

Avantageusement, le premier organe de fixation comporte en outre des pièces de solidarisation pour la fixation rigide du premier organe de fixation au bâtiment.Advantageously, the first fixing member furthermore includes fastening parts for the rigid fixing of the first fixing member to the building.

Ainsi, la fonction de réglage de la position et la fonction de fixation au bâtiment sont associées à des pièces différentes, ce qui permet d'adapter au mieux les pièces à leurs fonctions respectives.Thus, the position adjustment function and the attachment function to the building are associated with rooms different, which makes it possible to best adapt the parts to their respective functions.

Avantageusement, la façade comporte en outre des éléments de menuiserie fixés à certains au moins parmi les premiers et deuxièmes éléments de façade et s'étendant dans le plan des premiers et deuxièmes éléments de façade. Advantageously, the facade further comprises joinery elements attached to at least some of the first and second facade elements and extending in the plan of the first and second facade elements.

Ainsi, on évite d'avoir à fixer les éléments de menuiserie directement au bâtiment, une telle fixation pouvant être laborieuse à effectuer.This avoids having to fix the elements of carpentry directly to the building, such fixing being able be laborious to perform.

On prévoit également selon l'invention un ensemble pour la construction d'une façade de bâtiment, comportant des premiers éléments comprenant une âme alvéolaire et adaptés à être fixés à un bâtiment, et des deuxièmes éléments, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte des moyens de fixation des deuxièmes éléments aux premiers éléments, avec les premiers et deuxièmes éléments s'étendant dans un même plan.According to the invention, an assembly is also provided. for the construction of a building facade, comprising first elements comprising a cellular core and adapted to be attached to a building, and second elements, characterized in that it comprises means for fixing the second elements to the first elements, with the first and second elements extending in the same plane.

Cet ensemble permet de construire la façade selon l'invention.This set allows you to build the facade according to the invention.

On prévoit en outre selon l'invention un procédé de construction d'une façade de bâtiment au moyen de premiers éléments comportant une âme alvéolaire et de deuxièmes éléments, dans lequel on fixe les premiers éléments au bâtiment et on dispose les premiers éléments et les deuxièmes éléments dans un même plan, et dans lequel on fixe les deuxièmes éléments aux premiers éléments.The invention further provides a method of construction of a building facade by means of first elements comprising a cellular core and second elements, in which we fix the first elements at building and we have the first elements and the second elements in the same plane, and in which we fix the second elements to the first elements.

Ce procédé permet de construire la façade selon l'invention.This process allows the facade to be constructed according to the invention.

Les premiers éléments de façade 8 de chaque rangée sont adjacents les uns aux autres et ont leurs faces latérales verticales alignées. Chaque premier élément de façade 8 a une dimension longitudinale ou hauteur h suivant la direction verticale perpendiculaire aux planchers 3. Cette dimension h est égale à la distance d séparant les faces homologues (par exemple les faces supérieures 5) de deux planchers 2 adjacents l'un de l'autre suivant la direction verticale. Cette distance d est la hauteur d'un étage du bâtiment.The first facade elements 8 are fixed to the floors 2 and only to these, by means of prime fasteners or brackets 30. The first elements of front 8 are arranged in several vertical rows parallel to each other, and spaced from each other. The first facade elements 8 of each row are adjacent to each other and have their vertical side faces aligned. Each first facade element 8 has a dimension longitudinal or height h in the vertical direction perpendicular to floors 3. This dimension h is equal to the distance d separating the homologous faces (for example the upper faces 5) of two adjacent floors 2 one of the other in the vertical direction. This distance d is the height of a storey of the building.

Chaque premier élément de façade 8 est fixé à deux planchers adjacents 2 s'étendant à des niveaux différents. Il est fixé à chacun de ces planchers par deux équerres 30 qui fixent également à ce même plancher 2 le premier élément de façade 8 suivant dans la rangée.Each first facade element 8 is fixed to two Adjacent floors 2 extending to different levels. he is fixed to each of these floors by two brackets 30 which also attach to this same floor 2 the first element of front 8 next in the row.

Chaque équerre 30 comporte une première et une deuxième platines 32, 34 fixées l'une à l'autre en formant un angle droit. La première platine 32 comporte quatre orifices traversants 44 pour la fixation à l'équerre de deux premiers éléments de façade 8, chacun par deux vis ou rivets traversant deux des orifices 44. La première platine 32 s'étend verticalement, parallèlement à la face arrière 17 de l'âme et est fixée à chacun des deux premiers éléments de façade 8, par exemple au moyen de deux vis ou rivets d'axe 90. L'une des tiges traverse l'âme 16 de part en part suivant son épaisseur et est reliée à l'un des renforts rigides verticaux 22 de part et d'autre de l'âme, et l'autre tige traverse le renfort 22 et l'âme 16. La deuxième platine 34 s'étend horizontalement et est noyée dans le plancher 2. La deuxième platine 34 présente trois logements circulaires filetés 38 traversant l'épaisseur de la platine et disposés en triangle. L'équerre comporte trois vis- pointeaux 40 engagées dans les logements 38 respectifs de façon à s'étendre en saillie d'une face de la deuxième platine 34 opposée à la première platine 32.Each bracket 30 has a first and a second plates 32, 34 fixed to each other forming a right angle. The first plate 32 has four holes through 44 for fixing to the square of the first two front elements 8, each by two screws or rivets passing through two of the orifices 44. The first plate 32 extends vertically, parallel to the rear face 17 of the core and is attached to each of the first two facade elements 8, by example by means of two screws or rivets with axis 90. One of the rods cross the core 16 right through according to its thickness and is connected to one of the rigid vertical reinforcements 22 on the and other of the core, and the other rod passes through the reinforcement 22 and the core 16. The second plate 34 extends horizontally and is embedded in the floor 2. The second plate 34 has three circular threaded housings 38 crossing the thickness of the plate and arranged in a triangle. The square has three needle screws 40 engaged in the housings 38 respective so as to extend projecting from one face of the second plate 34 opposite the first plate 32.

L'équerre 30 est mise en place de la façon suivante. On réalise une dalle de béton horizontale 36 constituant le gros-oeuvre du plancher 2, en ménageant dans cette dalle une feuillure adjacente au bord 4 du plancher et présentant une face plane 37 généralement horizontale. On dispose l'équerre avec la première platine 32 s'étendant verticalement près du bord 4 du plancher et dirigée vers le haut, les extrémités des trois vis-pointeaux 40 venant en contact avec la face plane 37 de la feuillure. On actionne ensuite l'une ou plusieurs des vis-pointeaux 40 en vue de régler la position angulaire de l'équerre 30 par rapport à la face 37 de la feuillure suivant deux directions horizontales perpendiculaires l'une de l'autre, par exemple, les directions X et Y de la figure 3. La deuxième platine 34 présente deux orifices 42, dont l'un est proche de la première platine, et long, et l'autre est éloigné de la première platine et circulaire, et deux vis de solidarisation 39 engagées dans les orifices 42 respectifs. Après que la position angulaire souhaitée de l'équerre a été obtenue, on visse les vis de solidarisation 39 dans la dalle 36 pour fixer rigidement l'équerre à la dalle. Puis on coule dans la feuillure un matériau de remplissage tel qu'un mortier 41, emplissant toute la feuillure et recouvrant la deuxième platine horizontale 34 sans recouvrir la première platine verticale 32. Ce matériau immobilise l'équerre après durcissement. Avant serrage des vis de solidarisation 39, on peut interposer une ou plusieurs cales 43 entre la deuxième platine horizontale 34 et la face supérieure 37 de la feuillure. Les équerres 30 ont des dimensions très inférieures aux dimensions des premiers et deuxièmes éléments de façade 8, 10 suivant les directions horizontale et verticale, et notamment inférieures à la plus grande dimension de ces éléments.The bracket 30 is put in place as follows. We realize a horizontal concrete slab 36 constituting the structural work of floor 2, providing a slab in this slab rebate adjacent to edge 4 of the floor and having a flat face 37 generally horizontal. We place the square with the first plate 32 extending vertically near the edge 4 of the floor and directed upwards, the ends of the three needle screws 40 coming into contact with the flat face 37 rebate. Then one or more of the needle screws 40 to adjust the angular position of the square 30 with respect to the face 37 of the next rebate two horizontal directions perpendicular one of the other, for example, the X and Y directions in Figure 3. The second plate 34 has two orifices 42, one of which is close to the first stage, and long, and the other is distant of the first circular plate, and two screws joining 39 engaged in the respective orifices 42. After the desired angular position of the square has been obtained, the fixing screws 39 are screwed into the slab 36 for rigidly fixing the square to the slab. Then we sink in the rebate a filling material such as a mortar 41, filling all the rebate and covering the second horizontal plate 34 without covering the first plate vertical 32. This material immobilizes the square after hardening. Before tightening the fixing screws 39, we can interpose one or more shims 43 between the second horizontal plate 34 and the upper face 37 of the rabbet. The brackets 30 have much smaller dimensions the dimensions of the first and second facade elements 8, 10 in the horizontal and vertical directions, and notably smaller than the largest dimension of these elements.

Les deuxièmes éléments de façade 10 et les menuiseries 26 ont les mêmes dimensions horizontales ou longueur, et sont disposés en plusieurs rangées verticales espacées les unes des autres et alternées avec les rangées des premiers éléments de façade 8. Dans chaque rangée, les deuxièmes éléments de façade 10 et les menuiseries 26 sont alternées et ont leurs faces latérales verticales alignées entre elles. Les deuxièmes éléments de façade 10 présentent une dimension verticale ou hauteur f, et les menuiseries 26 présentent une dimension verticale ou hauteur g. La somme de la hauteur f et de la hauteur g est égale à la hauteur h des premiers éléments de façade 8.The second facade elements 10 and the joinery 26 have the same horizontal dimensions or length, and are arranged in several vertical rows spaced from each other and alternated with the rows of first facade elements 8. In each row, the second facade elements 10 and the joinery 26 are alternate and have their vertical side faces aligned between them. The second facade elements 10 have a vertical dimension or height f, and the joinery 26 have a vertical dimension or height g. The sum of the height f and the height g is equal to the height h of first facade elements 8.

Chaque deuxième élément de façade 10 s'étend en regard de deux premiers éléments de façade 8 de chaque rangée adjacente. Chaque deuxième élément de façade 10 est fixé à ces quatre premiers éléments de façade 8 et seulement à ceux-ci. Chaque menuiserie 26 est fixée à un premier élément de façade 8 de chaque rangée adjacente et seulement à ceux-ci.Each second facade element 10 extends in look of the first two facade elements 8 in each row adjacent. Each second facade element 10 is fixed to these first four facade elements 8 and only to these. Each joinery 26 is fixed to a first facade element 8 of each row adjacent and only to these.

La fixation des deuxièmes éléments de façade 10 est effectuée au moyen de deuxièmes organes de fixation tels que des pattes métalliques planes allongées horizontales 46 fixées aux renforts verticaux 22 des premiers éléments de façade 8. La patte 46 présente six orifices traversants 48. Deux de ces orifices 48 reçoivent des attaches telles que des vis ou rivets d'axe 95 traversant un renfort vertical 22 et l'âme 16 du premier élément de façade 8 associé. Un troisième orifice 48 reçoit une attache d'axe 96 traversant un renfort vertical 22 et l'âme 16 du deuxième élément de façade 10. Deux autres orifices 48 reçoivent deux attaches d'axe 97 traversant l'un des renforts horizontaux 24 du deuxième élément de façade 10.The fixing of the second facade elements 10 is performed by means of second fasteners such as horizontal elongated flat metal legs 46 fixed to the vertical reinforcements 22 of the first facade elements 8. The tab 46 has six through holes 48. Two of these orifices 48 receive fasteners such as screws or axis rivets 95 passing through a vertical reinforcement 22 and the core 16 of the first associated facade element 8. A third opening 48 receives an axle attachment 96 passing through a vertical reinforcement 22 and the core 16 of the second facade element 10. Two other orifices 48 receive two pin fasteners 97 passing through one horizontal reinforcements 24 of the second facade element 10.

Les panneaux 25 des premiers éléments de façade 8 ont un profil en coupe verticale transversale à la façade, tel que le panneau présente une zone supérieure 25a qui est proche de l'âme 16 et une zone inférieure 25b qui est distante de l'âme, et recouvre par l'extérieur la zone supérieure 25a du premier élément de façade 8 adjacent dans la rangée. On obtient ainsi une disposition en tuiles qui dissimule à la vue les jonctions entre les premiers éléments de façade 8 au niveau de leurs faces horizontales.The panels 25 of the first facade elements 8 have a profile in vertical section transverse to the facade, such as the panel has an upper zone 25a which is close to the core 16 and a lower zone 25b which is distant from the core, and covers from the outside the upper zone 25a of the first facade element 8 adjacent in the row. We thus obtain a tiled arrangement which conceals the junctions from view between the first facade elements 8 at their horizontal faces.

Cette façade est donc construite au moyen d'un ensemble comprenant des premiers éléments 8 comportant une âme alvéolaire 16 et adaptés à être fixés à un bâtiment, des deuxièmes éléments 10, et des moyens de fixation 30 des deuxièmes éléments 10 aux premiers éléments 8, avec les premiers et deuxièmes éléments 8, 10 s'étendant dans un même plan.This facade is therefore constructed by means of a assembly comprising first elements 8 comprising a core alveolar 16 and adapted to be fixed to a building, second elements 10, and fixing means 30 for second elements 10 to the first elements 8, with the first and second elements 8, 10 extending in the same plan.

Cette construction est effectuée en fixant les premiers éléments 8 au bâtiment, en disposant les premiers éléments 8 et les deuxièmes éléments 10 dans un même plan vertical, et en fixant les deuxièmes éléments 10 aux premiers éléments 8.This construction is carried out by fixing the first 8 elements to the building, arranging the first elements 8 and the second elements 10 in the same plane vertical, and fixing the second elements 10 to the first items 8.

La façade ainsi obtenue a un faible poids et est qualifiée de légère.The facade thus obtained has a low weight and is qualified as light.

Bien entendu, on pourra apporter à l'invention de nombreuses modifications sans sortir du cadre de celle-ci.Of course, we can bring to the invention of numerous modifications without departing from the framework thereof.

La paroi 6 du panneau 25 peut avoir une forme, des reliefs et des couleurs très variées au gré des souhaits du concepteur de la façade. Le panneau 25 sera avantageusement une pièce thermoformée.The wall 6 of the panel 25 can have a shape, reliefs and colors very varied according to the wishes of the facade designer. The panel 25 will advantageously a thermoformed part.
