DETAILED DESCRIPTION
An example panel assembly 1 is shown in Fig. 1. The panel assembly 1 forms part of a panel system, such as the panel system 10 shown in Figs. 4 and S. As shown in Fig. 1, the panel assembly 1 comprises a panel 2, having a rear surface 21 and a front surface 22. The rear surface is arranged closer to a substrate 6 to which the panel 2 is to be installed, to face inward, towards the substrate 6, in use, and may not be visible after installation of the panel 2. The front surface 23 is arranged further from the substrate 6, to face outward, away from the substrate, in use, and may be visible after installation of the panel 2. The panel 2 may be formed from one or more of composite façade board, tiles, solar panel, glazed panel, render carrier board, metal profiled aesthetic sheet panel, and timber panelised board, for example.
The terms rear and front, rearward and frontward, and further derivations thereof, are used herein to denote relative positions respectively closer to or further from the substrate in a direction perpendicular to the rear surface of a panel 2, generally the horizontal direction in the Figures. The terms top and bottom, upper and lower, and further derivations thereof, are used herein to denote relative positions in a direction parallel to a panel 2, generally the vertical direction in the Figures. The terms left and right, and side, and further derivations thereof, are used herein to denote relative positions in a direction parallel to a panel 2, generally the into and out of the page in the Figures.
As shown in Fig. 1, a rail 3 is connected to the rear surface 21 of the panel 2. Fig. 1 shows only a cross-section through the rail 3, but the rail 3 extends in a direction into and/or out of the page. The rail 3 may be a substantially straight, elongated rail. The rail 3 may extend the full width of the panel 2. Alternatively, the rail 3 may extend part of the width of the panel 2. The rail 3 may have a substantially uniform cross-section over its frill length. The rail 3 may be constructed, for example, by extrusion. The rail 3 may be formed from metal, such as aluminium or steel.
As shown in Fig. 1, the rail 3 may be connected to the rear surface 21 of the panel 2 by one or more rail fixings 5. The rail fixings 5 may be a mechanical fixing such as a rivet, screw or bolt. The rail fixings 5 may pass completely through the panel 2. Alternatively, the fixings 5 may be rear-only fixings that do not pass through the front of the panel 2.
Although not shown, the panel 2 may comprise a finishing layer connected to the front surface 42 of the panel 2. The finishing layer may be a decorative layer, such as a layer imitating the appearance of brickwork. The finishing layer may be arranged on the panel 2 to cover the rail fixings 5.
As shown in Fig. I, the panel assembly I further comprises at least one bracket 4, connected to the rail 3 and configured to travel along the rail 3, e.g. slide along the rail 3 side-to-side. Fig. 1 shows only a cross-section through the bracket 4, but the bracket 4 extends in a direction into and/or out of the page. The bracket 4 may have a substantially uniform cross-section over its full length. The bracket 4 may be constructed, for example, by extrusion. The bracket 4 may be formed from metal, such as aluminium or steel.
As shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the bracket 4 may be configured to be fixed to the substrate 6 while connected to the panel 2, i.e. via the rail 3. The number of brackets provided per panel assembly 1 is generally determined by the size and/or weight of the panel 2. The longer the panel 2 in the left-to-right direction, and./or the heavier the panel 2, the more brackets 4 may be required. Preferably, at least two brackets 4 are provided for increased stability.
In the panel assembly 1, the rail 3 also ensures correct positioning of the brackets 4 relative to the panel 2 in the top-to-bottom direction. The rail 3 also provides a moveable connection between the bracket 4 and the panel 2 for preferable positioning of the brackets 4 in the left-to-right direction. When the panel assembly 1 is presented to the substrate 6 for installation thereto, an operative can slide the brackets 4 into the desired position leftto-right for preferable fixation. The position may correspond to the position of substrate support GA, such as wooden stud. When assembling the panel assembly 1, the bracket 4 may slide onto the rail 3 to connect the bracket 4 to the rail 3.
Fig. 2 shows an example rail 3, in cross-section, when not connected to the panel 2 and the bracket 4. As shown in Fig. 2, the rail 3 comprises a rail body 31. In this example, the rail body 31 forms a central part of the rail 3, top-to-bottom. As shown, the rail body 31 may be substantially parallel to the rear surface 21 of the panel 2, when connected thereto. As shown, at opposing top and bottom edges of the rail body 31 there may be provided respective rail engaging portions 32. The rail engaging portions 32 are configured to engage with respective engaging portions 43 of the bracket 4 to connect thereto.
As shown in Fig. 2, the rail engaging portions 32 may comprise a first wall 33 and a second wall 34, separated by a gap. As shown, the first and second walls 33, 34 may respectively be on rearward and frontward sides of the gap. As shown, the first and second walls 33, 34 may be substantially parallel to the rear surface of the panel 2, when connected thereto. As shown in Fig. 2, where the first and second walls 33, 34 connect to the rail body 31, the first and second walls 33, 34 may be curved so as to respectively form two left-right halves of a U-shape or inverted U-shape.
As shown in Fig. 2, a plurality of openings 35 may be formed in the bracket body 31 for accommodating a mechanical fixing, such as the rail fixing 5. These openings 35 may be circular holes, or slots, for example. These maybe formed after an extrusion process forming the rail 3. As shown in Fig. 2, upper and lower ridges may be provided in the rail body 31 above and below the location of the openings 35. These ridges may extend the full length of the rail 3 and may provide strength to the rail 3.
The panel 2 may also comprise pre-formed openings, such as circular holes, or slots, for accommodating the rail fixings 5. The openings in the panel 2 and the openings in the rail 3 may be configured to align for correct positioning of the rail 3 on the panel 2.
As shown in Fig. 2, the frontward, second wall 34 of the engaging parts 32 may be offset from the rail body 31 in the direction perpendicular to the rear surface 21 of the panel 2, when the rail 3 is connected thereto. Accordingly, a recess space 36 is formed between the rail body 31 and the rear surface 21 of the panel 2, when the rail 3 is connected thereto.
As shown in Fig. 2, the second wall 34 of the upper engaging part 32 may extend substantially further than the first wall 33. As shown in Fig. 1, this part of the second wall 34 forms an abutment part 37 configured to extend substantially beyond a top edge of the panel 2, when the rail 3 is connected thereto. As shown in Fig. 4, the abutment part 37 may be configured to provide a surface for abutment against another panel 2 positioned above the panel assembly 1 to ensure alignment between adjacent panel assemblies.
As shown in Fig. 1, the panel 2 may comprise a reference edge, in the example the top edge of the panel 2. The reference edge may be straight edge, an in this example, but in other examples the reference edge may be curved. As shown in Fig. 1, the rail 3 may be connected to the panel 2 substantially at the reference edge. In the case of a straight reference edge, the rail 3 may be arranged substantially parallel to the reference edge. As shown, a portion of the rail 3, i.e. the abutment part 37 may extend substantiality beyond the reference edge of the panel 2.
Fig. 3 shows an example bracket 4, in cross-section, when not connected to the rail 3. As shown in Fig. 3, the bracket 4 may comprise a bracket body 41. As shown, the bracket body 41 may extend substantially perpendicular to the rear surface 21 of the panel 2, when the bracket 4 is connected thereto. The bracket body 41 may be connected at a first end to the rail 3. As shown in Fig. 3, the bracket 4 may also comprise a fixing portion 42 that extends substantially parallel to the rear surface of the panel 2 at a second end of the body portion 41, opposite the first end. The first and second ends of the body portion 41 are displaced in a direction perpendicular to the rear surface 21 of the panel 2, when the bracket 4 is connected thereto. The bracket body 41 ensures that a gap is provided between the substrate 6 and the panel 2. The depth of the gap is largely determined by the length of the bracket body in the direction perpendicular to the rear surface 21 of the panel 2.
As shown in Fig. 3, the bracket 4 may comprise bracket engaging parts 43 configured to engage with respective rail engaging parts 32. As shown in Fig. 3, two bracket engaging parts 43 are provided at upper and lower portions of the bracket body 41. As shown, the bracket engaging parts 43 may comprise male parts configured to engage with female parts of the bracket engaging parts 32. As shown, the bracket engaging parts 43 may extend inwards from respective top and bottom parts of the bracket body 41. The bracket engaging parts 43 may be formed from a wall, i.e. a third wall configured to fit into the gap between the first and second walls 33, 34 forming the rail engaging parts 32.
As shown in Fig. 1, the fixing portion 42 of the bracket 4 is configured to extend beyond the reference edge of the panel 2, when the bracket 4 is connected thereto. As shown, the fixing portion 42 may also be configured to extend beyond the abutment part 37 of the rail 3, when the bracket 4 is connected thereto. These features enable the fixing portion 42 to be fixed to a substrate easily by providing access above the reference edge of the panel 2. Preferably, the fixing portion 42 extends beyond the edge of the panel 2 sufficiently to allow excess to the fixing portion 42 by a device configured to drive a mechanical fixing, such as a drill driver.
As shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the bracket fixing portion 42 may be connected to the substrate 6, and optionally the substrate support 6A, by one or more bracket fixings 7. The bracket fixings 7 may be a mechanical fixing such as a screw, bolt or rivet. The bracket fixing portion 42 may comprise one or more openings, such as holes or slots, configured to accept the bracket fixings 7.
Figs. 4 and 5 show an example panel system 10 comprising plural panel assemblies 1. The panel assemblies 1 are fixed to a substrate 6. In the example panel system 10 shown in Figs 4 and 5, the panels 2 are cladding panels for the side of a building. However, it should be understood that alternative example systems, e.g. pitched roof panels or roof mounter solar panels, may use the same or similar components.
In the example panel system 10, the substrate 6 may be oriented strand board (OSB), for example. Although not shown, the substrate 6 may comprise additional layers, such as membrane layers. As shown, the substrate 6 may be supported by substrate supports GA. The substrate supports GA may be wooden studs, for example. In other examples, the substrate may be concrete or brick, for example.
In the example panel system 10, panel assemblies I may be arranged adjacent each other, e.g. in a tessellated arrangement. In the example panel system 10 shown in Figs. 4 and 5, panel assemblies may be arranged in runs, such as the vertical run shown in Figs. 4 and 5.
