- show a cross section of embodiments of the panel attachment rail of
figures 1 and2 . -
Figure 1 shows a cross section of an embodiment of a roof(part), in particular asoffit end 5 or oversail part of the roof with apanel assembly 1, such that thepanel 11 forms the batten board. The panel assembly can also be attached to the eave of a roof. Thus, thepanel 1 forms a fascia board for the roof. This roof section offigure 1 also shows aninner wall 9, anouter wall 6 with a cavity between them. Usually, the cavity is partially filled with an insulation layer, applied against the outside of theinner wall 9. - The cross section of
figure 1 shows theroof tiles 2 in cross section and hooking behind a tile batten 3. Tile batten 3 is here fixed to aroof sheeting 4. The roof construction comprises aroof insulation layer 50. The roof edge soffit 5 (which, as explained, may also be the eave of the roof) has anouter roof truss 14. - In the panel assembly,
panel 11 is snap-fit tosuspension rail 15. To that end, in thisembodiment panel 11 has anattachment rail 21 and thesuspension rail 15 has a panel attachment groove that extends longitudinally along thesuspension rail 15. Apanel assembly 1 withpanel 11 andsuspension rail 15 may also be used in different applications. - In this embodiment, an
upper mounting beam 16 and alower mounting beam 13 are fixed to theouter roof truss 14. Fixed to thelower mounting beam 13 is asuspension profile 15. Thepanel 11 is snap-fit to thesuspension profile 15. - In this embodiment, a
soffit board 10 is attached to the roof soffit, along one longitudinal edge held bysuspension profile 15, and along its opposite edge using a snap-fit mounting provision. The snap-fit mounting provision provides a ventilation channel 12' at the wall-directed edge of thesoffit board 10. - The
panel assembly 11 is further designed in such a way that in this roof application aventilation channel 12 is created along the back surface of thepanel 11. In figure a perspective view of part of the construction offigure 2 is shown in more detail. In this embodiment, theupper mounting beam 16 and thelower beam 13 comprise respective cut-outs (or grooves) 17, 18. The cut-outs run cross with respect to the longitudinal direction of the upper andlower beams panel 15. It should be clear that the shape, depth and direction if the cut-outs may be optimised for easy production, optimal ventilation, and other reasons. Here, the cut-outs 17 of theupper mounting beam 16 are facing the back surface ofpanel 11, and the cut-outs of thelower mounting beam 13 are facing away from thepanel 11. The cut-outs provide substantially vertical ventilation channels. - In
figure 2 , the mounting provision on thesuspension profile 15 is clear to see. The suspension profile comprises a mountinggroove 19 designed and dimensioned receiving an edge ofsoffit board 10. This soffitboard mounting groove 19 opens opposite thepanel 11. - The various details of the
suspension profile 15 will be explained here. Thesuspension profile 15 has a longitudinalconstruction attachment flange 36, a flange that extends in longitudinal direction along thesuspension profile 15. Here, theconstruction attachment flange 36 in fact is a single strip. Theconstruction attachment flange 36 provides at one side an attachment surface. The suspension profile can be mounted to a building with this attachment surface applied against a construction part of a building. Here, first the lower beam is mounted against theouter roof truss 14. Thesuspension profile 15 is mounted against the face of thelower mounting beam 13 that faces away from the building. Itsattachment surface 26 is in engagement with thelower mounting beam 13. - At the other side, facing in opposite direction of the
attachment surface 26, thesuspension profile 15 abuts against therear surface 25 of thepanel 11. In an embodiment, the surface of theconstruction attachment flange 36 that is opposite of theattachment surface 26 may abut therear surface 25 of thepanel 11. In the embodiments of thesuspension profile 15 that are shown infigures 3-5 , apanel abutment 27 is provided for instance by means of a ledge extending in longitudinal direction along thesuspension profile 15, and extending from thesuspension profile 15 in transverse direction towards the rear or back surface ofpanel 11. In the designs shown infigures 1-5 , thepanel abutment 27 provides a distance between theconstruction attachment flange 36 and therear surface 25 of thepanel 11. - In this embodiment, the
suspension profile 15 comprises agroove 20 as part of the snap-fit attachment provision that is provided on thesuspension profile 15. Thisgroove 20 furthermore extends in longitudinal direction alongsuspension profile 15, and is thus referred to as longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20. - In this embodiment,
panel 11 comprises anattachment rail 21 that is designed to snap-fit into the longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20. The attachment rail of this embodiment may also be described as a flange that extends away, in particular perpendicular away, in transverse direction, from theback surface 25 ofpanel 11. It furthermore extends in longitudinal direction along the back surface ofpanel 11. - In this embodiment, the
attachment rail 21 is provided with a snap-fit ledge 29. This snap-fit ledge 29 here extends longitudinally onattachment rail 21. The longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20 is furthermore provided internally with a groove snap-fit ledge 30 which is designed to cooperate with the snap-fit ledge 29 on theattachment rail 21 to snap-fit together whenattachment rail 21 is pressed into longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20. Groove snap-fit ledge 30 in fact reduced the width of the longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20 near the groove opening. Furthermore, it is designed and positioned to provide, in cross-section, a barb, preventing removal of theattachment rail 21 in a direction more or less normal to the panel backsurface 25. To that end, One or both walls of the longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20 may be a little resilient. In this way, snapping theattachment rail 21 into the longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20 while allowing the snap-fit ledge 29 to pass the groove snap-fit ledge 30 is possible. Here, the opening width of the longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20 is a little less than the thickness of the attachment rail behind the snap-fit ledge. - Here, the opening of the longitudinal
panel attachment groove 20 is flush or behind thepanel abutment 27. The dimensions and distances of the snap-fit ledge 29, in particular its abutment surface, and the panel backsurface 25 are selected with respect to the distance between the groove snap-fit ledge, in particular its abutment surface, and thepanel abutment 27 to allow snap fitting with the panel abutment firmly abutting thepanel abutment 27. - In this embodiment of the
attachment rail 21, it is provided with apositioning ledge 28 that can best be seen in the cross sections offigures 3-5 . At the location of thispositioning ledge 28, the thickness of theattachment rail 21 is less than at the location of the snap-fit ledge 29. This provision allows theattachment rail 21 to be held in longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20 temporarily. Thus, positioningledge 28 snaps behind groove snap-fit ledge 30 first. The thinner part of theattachment rail 21 allows relatively easy removal of thepanel 11. When the position can be fixed permanently, thepanel 11 is pressed in the direction of thesuspension profile 15 more firmly, such that snap-fit ledge 29 snaps behind groove snap-fit ledge 30. - In
figure 3 , anabutment ledge 23 is part of the upper surface of the upper wall of longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20. It extends, however, not beyondventilation channel 18 of thelower mounting beam 13 so that it does not interfere with or the block theventilation channels 12. - When a soffit
board mounting groove 19 is provided like in the embodiments offigures 4 and5 , the upper wall of longitudinalpanel attachment groove 20 can interfere with the ventilation passages oflower mounting beam 13. To prevent this, anabutment ledge 23 is provided between theattachment surface 26 of theconstruction attachment flange 36 and the ventilation passage oflower mounting beam 13. Thisabutment ledge 23 provides an abutment of thesuspension profile 15 in a direction cross to theattachment surface 26, more in particular perpendicular. - Thus,
ventilation channel 18 oflower mounting beam 13 opens behindabutment ledge 23, when viewed . Thus, continuous ventilation channels are provided. These ventilation channels at one end open at the upper edge of thepanel 11. The other ends of the ventilation channels open behind thepanel 11 and abovesoffit board 10. - The
figures 3-5 shows different embodiments of the suspension profile that may be used in different building or construction types. Infigure 3 , the panel assembly is used in a building having no or almost no soffit or oversail.Suspension profile 15 this extends along and near theouter wall 6. In this embodiment, care is taken to provide a small spacing between thesuspension profile 15 andouter wall 6 to provide a ventilation slit. - In
figure 4 , an example of apanel assembly 1 is shown with can be used for relativelythin soffit boards 10. Infigure 5 , an embodiment is shown for relativelythick soffit boards 10. - For easy mounting, the
rear surface 25 ofpanel 11 is provided with arecess 22 for providing space for mountingprovisions 35 for thesuspension profile 15. Here space is provided for the heads ofscrews 35. - As explained, the
panel attachment assembly 1 comprises thesuspension profile 15, from which thepanel 11, in the attached condition, is actually hung. Thissuspension profile 15 is relatively rigid, providing a defined basis for attachingpanel 11.Suspension profile 15 can be from metal of polymer material. In one embodiment thesuspension profile 15 is for instance made of metal, for instance aluminium or stainless steel. Alternatively, the suspension profile may comprise polymer material, or fibre-reinforced polymer. In the current embodiment, the suspension profile is polymer extrusion profile. The object of a rigid profile such assuspension profile 15 is for providing a properly level basis to whichpanel 11 can be attached level. - The
suspension assembly 1 withsuspension profile 15 makes it possible to easily hang a panel such that positioning is possible. First, theattachment rail 21 is snapped into theattachment groove 20 slightly, withpositioning snap ledge 28 snapping behind thegroove snap ledge 30.Panel 11 can still be removed from thesuspension profile 15 when desired. When the position is right, the position ofpanel 11 can be fixated by pushingpanel 11 with itsattachment rail 21 further into thepanel attachment groove 20 such that the attachment rail snaps completely into thatgroove 20, now withgroove snap ledge 30 hooking behind attachment rail snap-fit ledge 29. As the rail at that position is thicker than at the location of thepositioning snap ledge 28, removal is no longer possible in the direction cross to the longitudinal direction of thepanel 11. - The
upper mounting beam 16 and thelower mounting beam 13 may be simple wooden beams having for instance rectangular, transverse slits. Alternatively, these beams may be from a polymer material. The may comprise a foamed core. - It will be clear that the above description is included to illustrate the working of preferred embodiments, and not to limit the scope of the invention. Starting from the above explanation many variations that fall within the spirit and scope of the present invention will be evident to an expert.
