Description

Panneau muni d'une toile métallique Panel equipped with a wire cloth
La présente invention concerne un panneau muni d'une toile métallique. Le domaine de l'invention est celui des panneaux décoratifs employés dans le bâtiment. Ces panneaux souvent montés à l'extérieur d'une façade ont par exemple pour fonction d'occulter des baies vitrées tout en laissant passer la lumière. On limite ainsi la luminosité et réchauffement de l'air lors des périodes de fort ensoleillement. De tels panneaux peuvent également servir à cloisonner un volume habitable, par exemple un plateau de bureaux. Dans le cas présent, un panneau est réalisé à partir d'une toile métallique constituée d'une trame et d'une chaîne. Cette toile est assemblée par au moins un de ses côtés avec un moyen de fixation. Le moyen de fixation est muni d'un moyen de suspension permettant de suspendre le panneau à un élément architectural du bâtiment. De tels panneaux présentent plusieurs limitations.The present invention relates to a panel provided with a wire mesh. The field of the invention is that of decorative panels used in the building. These panels often mounted outside a facade have for example the function of obscuring windows while allowing light to pass. This limits the brightness and warmth of the air during periods of strong sunlight. Such panels can also be used to partition a living space, for example an office shelf. In this case, a panel is made from a wire fabric consisting of a frame and a chain. This fabric is assembled by at least one of its sides with a fastening means. The fastening means is provided with a suspension means for suspending the panel to an architectural element of the building. Such panels have several limitations.
En effet, la toile métallique est constituée d'éléments de trame rigides et d'éléments de chaîne souples. Elle est découpée dans un rouleau et se présente obligatoirement sous une forme rectangulaire ou carrée car la coupe est parallèle à la trame. Les éléments de trame sont des tringles et les éléments de chaîne sont constitués chacun par une ou plusieurs paires de câble perpendiculaires à la trame. Une paire de câbles comprend deux câbles passant alternativement au- dessus et au-dessous de chaque tringle afin d'assurer la cohésion de la toile. Naturellement, les câbles s'effilochent au niveau de la coupe. Il importe d'éviter cet effilochage qui peut conduire à une destruction de la toile.Indeed, the wire fabric consists of rigid weft elements and flexible chain elements. It is cut in a roll and is necessarily in a rectangular or square because the cut is parallel to the frame. The weft elements are rods and the warp elements each consist of one or more pairs of cables perpendicular to the weft. A pair of cables comprises two cables passing alternately above and below each rod to ensure the cohesion of the fabric. Naturally, the cables fray at the cut. It is important to avoid this fraying that can lead to a destruction of the canvas.
Selon une première technique d'assemblage connue, on soude les extrémités des câbles sur les tringles qui figurent à la périphérie de la toile. D'autre part, on enlève quelques tringles dans une zone de liaison proche de la ligne de coupe. Ensuite, on place un moyen de liaison, à savoir un barreau, dans cette zone de liaison en l'introduisant dans des boulons à œil régulièrement espacés qui sont prévus pour la fixation du panneau. Ces boulons sont nécessairement disposés entre deux éléments de chaîne, si bien qu'on ne peut choisir librement leurs emplacements. En outre, il faut tronçonner les tringles situées au-delà de la zone de liaison au droit des boulons à œil. Il apparaît que ce panneau nécessite lors de sa confection de nombreuses opérations : - soudure des câbles, - passivation des soudures,According to a first known assembly technique, the ends of the cables are welded to the rods which appear at the periphery of the fabric. On the other hand, some rods are removed in a connection zone close to the cutting line. Next, a connecting means, namely a bar, is placed in this connection zone by introducing it into regularly spaced eye bolts which are provided for fixing the panel. These bolts are necessarily arranged between two chain elements, so that their locations can not be freely chosen. In addition, it is necessary to cut the rods located beyond the connection zone to the right of the eye bolts. It appears that this panel requires during its manufacture many operations: - welding cables, passivation of the welds,
- écartement des câbles.- spacing of the cables.
Ces opérations requièrent du temps et de la minutie de la part des opérateurs. Outre un prix de revient élevé, le panneau est obligatoirement rectangulaire.These operations require time and attention on the part of the operators. In addition to a high cost, the panel is necessarily rectangular.
Selon une deuxième technique d'assemblage connue, on soude là aussi les extrémités des câbles sur les tringles de trame qui figurent à la périphérie de la toile. On insère ensuite un bord de la toile parallèle à la trame entre deux plaques métalliques qui constituent un moyen de fixation. Des vis de serrage qui assurent la liaison entre le moyen de fixation et la toile sont introduites dans des ouvertures ménagées dans ces plaques et traversent donc la toile pour la maintenir. Le panneau ainsi réalisé peut être suspendu à une structure fixe par l'intermédiaire d'éléments de suspension solidaires d'une ou des deux plaques. Un tel panneau nécessite également lors de sa confection beaucoup de temps et de minutie de la part des opérateurs. Par ailleurs, le positionnement de la toile ne peut être réalisé avec une grande précision.According to a second known assembly technique, the ends of the cables are also welded to the weft rods which appear at the periphery of the fabric. An edge of the fabric is then inserted parallel to the weft between two metal plates which constitute a fixing means. Clamping screws which provide the connection between the fixing means and the fabric are introduced into openings in these plates and thus pass through the fabric to maintain it. The panel thus produced may be suspended from a fixed structure by means of suspension elements integral with one or both plates. Such a panel also requires during its preparation a lot of time and minutia on the part of the operators. Moreover, the positioning of the canvas can not be achieved with great precision.
Selon une troisième technique d'assemblage connue, on enlève plusieurs tringles sur un bord de la toile pour dégager les éléments de chaîne sur une certaine longueur. L'extrémité d'un élément de chaîne ainsi dégagé, à savoir un ensemble de câbles, est conformée en boucle autour d'une barre prévue pour la fixation du panneau. La boucle qui assure la liaison entre la toile et la barre est verrouillée autour de la barre par sertissage. Il est possible d'agencer de telles boucles sur tous les éléments de chaîne, ce qui nécessite un nombre conséquent d'opérations. Il est également possible de n'agencer de telles boucles que sur un nombre réduit d'éléments de chaîne, ce qui nécessite ici encore de souder les autres éléments sur la dernière tringle de la toile. Cette technique impose la destruction de la toile sur une longueur équivalente à celle des boucles.According to a third known assembly technique, several rods are removed on one edge of the fabric to disengage the chain elements over a certain length. The end of a chain member thus released, namely a set of cables, is shaped in a loop around a bar provided for fixing the panel. The loop which ensures the connection between the canvas and the bar is locked around the bar by crimping. It is possible to arrange such loops on all the chain elements, which requires a large number of operations. It is also possible to arrange such loops on a reduced number of chain elements, which again requires welding the other elements on the last rod of the fabric. This technique requires the destruction of the canvas on a length equivalent to that of the loops.
Il convient de rappeler que dans tous ces panneaux les toiles doivent obligatoirement être découpées parallèlement à la trame.It should be remembered that in all these panels the canvases must obligatorily be cut parallel to the frame.
L'invention se propose de pallier les différentes limitations des techniques connues en proposant un panneau perfectionné.The invention proposes to overcome the various limitations of the known techniques by proposing an improved panel.
Selon l'invention, un panneau comporte une toile métallique et un moyen de fixation assemblés par un moyen de liaison ; de plus, le moyen de liaison est de la colle. La confection du panneau est ainsi simplifiée à tel point que l'on peut envisager qu'elle soit réalisée par du personnel polyvalent. Il n'y a plus aucune opération mécanique telle que soudage, passivation, sertissage ou même vissage. De plus, les efforts subis par le panneau sont répartis sur toute la zone collée et non pas localisés sur des zones ponctuelles comme dans l'état de l'art.According to the invention, a panel comprises a wire cloth and a fastening means assembled by a connecting means; in addition, the connecting means is glue. The manufacture of the panel is thus simplified to such an extent that it can be envisaged that it be carried out by polyvalent personnel. There is no longer any mechanical operation such as welding, passivation, crimping or even screwing. In addition, the forces experienced by the panel are distributed over the entire bonded area and not localized on specific areas as in the state of the art.
En outre, il est dès lors possible de pratiquer des coupes obliques ou curvilignes sur la toile.In addition, it is therefore possible to practice oblique or curvilinear cuts on the canvas.
Avantageusement, la toile métallique étant constituée d'une trame et d'une chaîne, les éléments de cette trame sont des tringles et les éléments de cette chaîne sont des câbles.Advantageously, the wire fabric consisting of a frame and a chain, the elements of this frame are rods and the elements of this chain are cables.
De préférence, la colle étant constituée d'une base et d'un durcisseur, cette base est une résine époxyde et ce durcisseur est une aminé modifiée.Preferably, since the adhesive consists of a base and a hardener, this base is an epoxy resin and this hardener is a modified amine.
Suivant un mode de réalisation privilégié, le moyen de fixation comporte deux plaques.According to a preferred embodiment, the fixing means comprises two plates.
Dans ce cas, au moins une des plaques présente un repère.In this case, at least one of the plates has a mark.
De plus, une des plaques, la plaque mâle, présente des pions qui prennent appui sur l'autre plaque, la plaque femelle.In addition, one of the plates, the male plate, has pins that bear on the other plate, the female plate.
De même, la plaque femelle présente des ouvertures qui coopèrent avec les pions de la plaque mâle.Similarly, the female plate has openings that cooperate with the pins of the male plate.
Avantageusement, l'une des plaques au moins présente une surface d'appui sur laquelle repose la toile.Advantageously, at least one of the plates has a bearing surface on which the fabric rests.
En outre, au moins une des plaques comporte des orifices prévus pour le passage d'éléments de suspension. De préférence, une des plaques présente un retour.In addition, at least one of the plates has orifices provided for the passage of suspension elements. Preferably, one of the plates has a return.
Si cela s'avère approprié, le panneau comporte un élément d'étanchéité disposé entre les deux plaques.If appropriate, the panel comprises a sealing element disposed between the two plates.
L'invention vise également un procédé de réalisation d'un tel panneau, procédé selon lequel l'assemblage du moyen de fixation sur la toile est réalisé par collage.The invention also relates to a method of producing such a panel, wherein the assembly of the fixing means on the fabric is made by gluing.
Avantageusement, lorsque le moyen de fixation est réalisé au moyen de deux plaques, le procédé comprend :Advantageously, when the fixing means is made by means of two plates, the method comprises:
- une étape d'enduction des deux plaques avec la colle ;a step of coating the two plates with the glue;
- une étape de positionnement de la toile sur l'une des plaques, la plaque postérieure ; - une étape de positionnement de l'autre plaque, la plaque antérieure, sur l'ensemble constitué par la toile et la plaque postérieure. La présente invention apparaîtra maintenant avec plus de détails dans le cadre de la description qui suit d'exemples de réalisation donnés à titre illustratif en se référant aux figures jointes, parmi lesquelles :a step of positioning the fabric on one of the plates, the posterior plate; a step of positioning the other plate, the anterior plate, on the assembly constituted by the fabric and the posterior plate. The present invention will now appear in greater detail in the context of the following description of exemplary embodiments given by way of illustration with reference to the appended figures, among which:
- la figure 1 représente en vue de face une toile métallique posée sur la partie postérieure d'un moyen de fixation, etFIG. 1 is a front view of a wire mesh placed on the rear part of a fixing means, and
- la figure 2 représente en vue de coupe une toile métallique liée au moyen de fixation. Les éléments présents dans les deux figures sont affectés d'une seule et même référence.- Figure 2 shows in sectional view a wire bonded to the fastening means. The elements present in the two figures are assigned a single reference.
En référence à la figure 1, une toile métallique TO est classiquement formée d'une trame et d'une chaîne. La trame est ici constituée par des tringles BA1, BA2, BA3, BA4, BA5, BA6 parallèles. La chaîne est constituée d'éléments de chaîne comportant chacun une ou plusieurs paires de câbles CA1, CA2, CA3, CA4, CA5 disposées à intervalles réguliers perpendiculairement aux tringles (une seule paire est représentée sur la figure). Les câbles de chaque paire passent alternativement au-dessus et au-dessous de chaque tringle, le cheminement d'un câble étant inversé par rapport à celui de l'autre câble de sorte que chaque tringle soit emprisonnée entre ces deux câbles. La toile métallique TO est donc très flexible selon un de ses axes et relativement rigide selon son autre axe.With reference to FIG. 1, a metal fabric TO is conventionally formed of a frame and a chain. The weft here consists of parallel BA1, BA2, BA3, BA4, BA5, BA6 rods. The chain consists of chain members each having one or more pairs of cables CA1, CA2, CA3, CA4, CA5 arranged at regular intervals perpendicular to the rods (only one pair is shown in the figure). The cables of each pair pass alternately above and below each rod, the path of a cable being inverted relative to that of the other cable so that each rod is trapped between these two cables. The metal fabric TO is very flexible along one of its axes and relatively rigid along its other axis.
Il faut remarquer que si l'invention trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse avec la toile décrite ci-dessus, elle s'appliquerait aussi à d'autres types de toile, notamment lorsque la maille est dite « fil à fil », lorsqu'elle est composée uniquement de câbles, lorsqu'elle est spiralée ou bien soudée.It should be noted that if the invention finds a particularly advantageous application with the fabric described above, it would also apply to other types of fabric, especially when the mesh is called "wire to wire", when it is composed only of cables, when it is spiraled or welded.
La toile métallique TO est agencée sur une plaque postérieure PLP qui est un premier composant du moyen de fixation de cette toile. De préférence, la toile TO repose sur une surface d'appui SAP qui fait saillie de la plaque postérieure PLP et qui lui est parallèle. Cette surface d'appui délimite un espace de remplissage SP entre la toile et cette plaque PLP.The wire mesh TO is arranged on a posterior plate PLP which is a first component of the fastening means of this fabric. Preferably, the fabric TO rests on a bearing surface SAP which protrudes from the posterior plate PLP and which is parallel to it. This bearing surface defines a filling space SP between the fabric and this PLP plate.
Selon une caractéristique préférentielle, des pions PU , PI2, PI3, PI4 sont disposés sur la surface d'appui SAP. Lors de la pose de la toile TO sur la plaque postérieure PLP, celle-ci est positionnée de façon que les pions PU, PI2, PI3, PI4 soient intercalés entre deux tringles adjacentes, par exemple entre les deuxième BA2 et troisième BA3 tringles. Afin de concilier la résistance et l'élasticité de la toile, il est souhaitable que les pions PU, PI2, PI3, PI4 soient au milieu des intervalles séparant deux éléments de chaîne consécutifs. On minimise ainsi les éventuelles flexions des tringles et tensions des câbles au voisinage des pions.According to a preferred characteristic, studs PU, PI2, PI3, PI4 are arranged on the support surface SAP. When laying the fabric TO on the posterior plate PLP, it is positioned so that the pins PU, PI2, PI3, PI4 are interposed between two adjacent rods, for example between the second BA2 and third BA3 rods. In order to reconcile the strength and elasticity of the fabric, it is desirable for the pieces PU, PI2, PI3, PI4 to be at middle of the intervals separating two consecutive chain elements. This minimizes any bending of the rods and tensions of the cables in the vicinity of the pins.
De part et d'autre de la surface d'appui SAP, la surface de la plaque postérieure PLP présente un repère tel qu'un trait gravé ou des rainures RA. Seules les amorces de ces rainures sont représentées pour ne pas surcharger la figure.On either side of the SAP support surface, the surface of the posterior plate PLP has a mark such as an engraved line or RA grooves. Only the primers of these grooves are shown to avoid overloading the figure.
Avant de disposer la toile métallique TO sur la plaque postérieure PLP, cette dernière est enduite de colle CO au niveau des rainures RA et de la surface d'appui SAP.Before disposing the wire mesh TO on the posterior plate PLP, the latter is coated with CO adhesive at the grooves RA and the support surface SAP.
Cette colle CO peut être constituée d'une base et d'un durcisseur, par exemple respectivement une résine époxyde et une aminé modifiée. Ainsi, la colle commercialisée par la société « 3M » référencée « Scotch-Weld™ 7240This CO adhesive may consist of a base and a hardener, for example respectively an epoxy resin and a modified amine. Thus, the adhesive marketed by the company "3M" referenced "Scotch-Weld ™ 7240
B/A » est une colle structurale bi-composant polymérisable à température ambiante. Elle est caractérisée par sa ténacité et sa durabilité.B / A "is a bi-component structural adhesive polymerizable at room temperature. It is characterized by its tenacity and durability.
Ce type de colle offre les avantages suivants :This type of glue offers the following advantages:
- polymérisation à température ambiante, entre 20 et 25° C, polymérisation qui peut être accélérée par un apport de chaleur ;- polymerization at room temperature, between 20 and 25 ° C, polymerization which can be accelerated by a supply of heat;

La plaque postérieure PLP présente également dans sa partie non recouverte par la toile métallique TO des orifices OR1 , OR2 destinés au passage d'éléments de suspension ES. Elle présente aussi de préférence au droit de son arête supérieure un retour RE qui sera détaillé plus loin.The posterior plate PLP also has, in its part not covered by the wire mesh TO, orifices OR1, OR2 intended for the passage of suspension elements ES. It also preferably presents the right of its upper edge a return RE which will be detailed later.
En référence à la figure 2, la toile métallique TO est partiellement recouverte par une plaque antérieure PLA, deuxième composant du moyen de fixation, au niveau de la plaque postérieure PLP. Tout comme précédemment, la toile TO vient au contact d'une surface d'appui SAA qui fait saillie de la plaque antérieure PLA et qui lui est parallèle. Les surfaces d'appui SAA, SAP respectives des deux plaques PLA, PLP coopèrent de façon à permettre un positionnement centré de la toile métallique TO.With reference to FIG. 2, the wire mesh TO is partially covered by an anterior plate PLA, the second component of the fastening means, at the level of the posterior plate PLP. As before, the fabric TO comes into contact with a SAA bearing surface which protrudes from the front plate PLA and which is parallel thereto. The respective SAA, SAP bearing surfaces of the two plates PLA, PLP cooperate to allow a centered positioning of the wire mesh TO.
La plaque antérieure PLA présente des ouvertures OU. Lorsqu'elle est correctement placée au-dessus de la plaque postérieure PLP1 les ouvertures OU s'emmanchent sur les pions PU, PI2, PI3, PI4. Eventuellement, ces ouvertures traversent toute la plaque antérieure PLA pour permettre le passage d'éléments de fixation EF tels que des boulons vissés dans des taraudages agencés dans ces pions. La plaque antérieure PLA présente également des orifices OR. Après positionnement, ces orifices se trouvent au droit des orifices analogues de la plaque postérieure PLP. Ils permettent le passage d'éléments de suspension EF, telles des vis. Ces éléments sont prévus pour être assujettis à un support non représenté. La plaque antérieure PLA présente également des rainures RA en vis-à- vis de celles dont est munie la plaque postérieure PLP.The PLA front plate has OR openings. When correctly placed above the posterior plate PLP 1, the openings OR are engaged on the pins PU, PI2, PI3, PI4. Optionally, these openings pass through the entire front plate PLA to allow the passage of EF fasteners such as bolts screwed into threads arranged in these pins. The PLA anterior plate also has OR ports. After positioning, these orifices are in line with the analogous orifices of the posterior plate PLP. They allow the passage of EF suspension elements, such as screws. These elements are intended to be subject to a support not shown. The PLA anterior plate also has grooves RA vis-à-vis those which is provided with the PLP posterior plate.
Avant de disposer la plaque antérieure PLA sur la toile TO, celle-là est enduite de colle CO au niveau de ses rainures RA et de sa surface d'appui SA. Pour que la polymérisation soit homogène, il est préférable d'enduire les deux plaques à peu près au même moment.Before disposing the PLA anterior plate on the TO fabric, it is coated with CO adhesive at its RA grooves and its bearing surface SA. In order for the polymerization to be homogeneous, it is preferable to coat both plates at about the same time.
La plaque antérieure PLA est disposée puis pressée sur la plaque postérieure PLP, ce qui conduit la colle CO à pénétrer dans la toile TO. L'assemblage ainsi réalisé est maintenu par les éléments de fixation EF.The PLA anterior plate is placed and then pressed on the posterior PLP plate, which causes the CO adhesive to penetrate into the TO fabric. The assembly thus produced is held by the fastening elements EF.
Le retour RE agencé perpendiculairement à l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque postérieure PLP avoisine l'arête supérieure de la plaque antérieure PLA. A cet endroit, l'intervalle entre les deux plaques PLA, PLP peut être comblé par un élément d'étanchéité EA tel qu'un joint silicone.The RE return arranged perpendicularly to the upper end of the PLP posterior plate is close to the upper edge of the PLA anterior plate. At this point, the gap between the two plates PLA, PLP can be filled by a sealing element EA such as a silicone seal.
Naturellement, on peut aussi envisager de disposer cet élément d'étanchéité entre les deux plaques PLA, PLP si la plaque postérieure PLP est dépourvue de retour.Naturally, it is also conceivable to arrange this sealing element between the two plates PLA, PLP if the posterior plate PLP is devoid of return.
Le cordon de colle qui est plus épais que la toile limite des éventuels efforts de cisaillement qui interviendraient sur les arrêtes des plaques en regard de la partie libre de la toile.The bead of glue which is thicker than the canvas limits any shearing forces that would intervene on the edges of the plates opposite the free part of the fabric.
On résume ici les différentes étapes du procédé de réalisation d'un panneau décrit plus haut :We summarize here the different steps of the method of producing a panel described above:
- enduction des deux plaques PLA, PLP avec de la colle CO ; - positionnement de la toile TO sur la plaque postérieure PLP ;coating of the two plates PLA, PLP with CO adhesive; positioning of the fabric TO on the posterior plate PLP;
- positionnement de la plaque antérieure PLA sur l'ensemble constitué par la toile TO et la plaque postérieure PLP.positioning of the PLA anterior plate on the assembly formed by the fabric TO and the posterior plate PLP.
Avantageusement, la toile métallique TO est en inox et les composants du moyen de fixation sont moulés en inox, en aluminium. Ces composants peuvent aussi être réalisés en acier sous réserve s'ils soient peints par la suite pour les protéger.Advantageously, the TO wire cloth is made of stainless steel and the components of the fastening means are molded from stainless steel or aluminum. These components can also be made of steel provided they are painted later to protect them.
Par ailleurs, il n'est pas nécessaire de préciser que les éléments de suspension ES peuvent être fixés sur le retour RE plutôt que sur les plaques. On rappelle de même que ce procédé autorise la réalisation de panneaux de formes complexes pouvant présenter des obliques et des arrondis au niveau d'une ou de ses extrémités.Furthermore, it is not necessary to specify that the suspension elements ES can be fixed on the RE return rather than on the plates. It is also recalled that this method allows the realization of panels of complex shapes that may have oblique and rounded at one or its ends.
L'invention a été présentée pour une toile à vocation décorative, il est tout à fait envisageable d'employer les techniques exposées ci-dessus pour des toiles à vocation technique dès lors qu'il importe de fixer cette toile à un quelconque élément.The invention has been presented for a decorative canvas, it is quite conceivable to use the techniques described above for technical canvases when it is important to fix this canvas to any element.
Les exemples de réalisation de l'invention présentés ci-dessus ont été choisi eu égard à leur caractère concret. Il ne serait cependant pas possible de répertorier de manière exhaustive tous les modes de réalisation que recouvre cette invention. En particulier, tout moyen décrit peut être remplacé par un moyen équivalent sans sortir du cadre de la présente invention. The embodiments of the invention presented above have been chosen in view of their concrete nature. It would not be possible, however, to exhaustively list all the embodiments covered by this invention. In particular, any means described may be replaced by equivalent means without departing from the scope of the present invention.
