Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a ceiling system comprising horizontal laths mounted in spaced-apart relationship and a ceiling cloth that is stretched between and under said laths, a finishing section for finishing an edge between the ceiling cloth and a wall, and fixing means for fixing said finishing section to the ceiling cloth and to the wall.
  • connection between the finishing section and the lath that is realised in this manner is of a more or less permanent nature, which connection can only be broken by specialists in practice. Because of this more or less permanent nature of the attachment of the finishing section to the ceiling via the lath it is not readily possible to exchange a finishing section for another finishing section once it has been fitted, which may be desirable when changing the interior of the room in question or, for example, in case the finishing section were damaged.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a finishing system as referred to in the introductory paragraph, wherein, whether or not in preferred embodiments of the invention, the aforesaid drawbacks of ceiling systems according to the prior art do not apply, or at least to a significantly smaller extent.
  • the finishing section comprises a base section, which is fixed to the underside of the ceiling cloth or to the wall by said fixing means, as well as a cover section, which can be connected to the base section by connecting means, in such a manner that the cover section abuts against the ceiling cloth and/or against the wall.
  • finishing section as a separate base section and a cover section that can be interconnected by means of the base section makes it possible to configure the connection between the base section and the cover section such that the two can readily be manually disconnected from each other without the connection between the base section and the ceiling or a wall being affected.
  • connection between the base section and the cover section can thus be effected in a simple manner by inserting the clamping wall into the clamping slot.
  • the clamping slot is horizontally oriented.
  • the important advantage of this preferred embodiment is that the cover section can thus be pushed against the wall, making it possible to obtain a proper abutment between the wall and the (underside of the) cover section, even if the latter has a comparatively great height.
  • the present preferred embodiment does not exclude the possibility of using a clamping strip fixed to the wall after all, as is the case with the prior art, in particular in the case of strongly inclined and/or wavy walls, but this will be necessary less soon than is the case with finishing systems according to the prior art.
  • the clamping slot and/or the clamping wall is (are) provided with a roughened portion, for example in the form of teeth.
  • a roughened portion for example in the form of teeth.
  • the clamping slot preferably forms part of the base section, so that the clamping wall of the cover section can be inserted into the clamping slot of the base section.
  • the clamping slot is formed by the space between two at least substantially parallel slot walls, with the free end of one of the slot walls springing towards the other slot wall.
  • the clamping wall is clamped between the slot walls of the clamping slot to a certain extent.
  • the presence of the clamping slot can thus be hidden from view in that the free end of the slot wall that is inclined in the direction of the other slot wall can abut against said other slot wall, so that there will be no gap, at most a seam.
  • the base section abuts both against the ceiling cloth and against the wall, so that it is also suitable for use without a separate cover section, as already indicated in the preceding paragraph.
  • the cover section abuts both against the ceiling cloth and against the wall.
  • the base section would be hidden from view in its entirety by the cover section, so that no special demands need to be made as regards the aesthetic quality of the base section.
  • At least one of the longitudinal edges of the base section and/or the cover section that abut against the ceiling cloth or the wall are formed by a flexible flange edge, such as a rubber or TPE (ThermoPlastic Elastomer).
  • the base section is fixed to a lath by the fixing means.
  • the fixing means comprise a clamping recess forming part of either one of the base section and the lath, as well as a clamping rib inserted into the clamping recess, which forms part of the other one of the base section and the lath.
  • the clamping rib is preferably vertically oriented, so that the base section can be connected to the lath by pushing the base section upwards against the lath.
  • figure 4 shows the finishing system according to the invention as it can eventually be used with an extruded hard plastic cover section 22.
  • the cover section 22 is shown more or less schematically in figure 4 , but as those skilled in the art will appreciate, it may have various forms.
  • a number of teeth 26 are provided on the bottom side of the insertion leg 23, which teeth are intended to mate with the tooth 21 on the leg 16 for the purpose of stabilising the position of the cover section 22 with respect to the base section 14.
  • the insertion leg 23 is inserted between the ends 17, 18 of the legs 15, 16 of the base section in the direction indicated by the arrow 28, until the flange 24, which is elastically deformable, abuts against the wall 3.
  • the elastically deformable flange 25 abuts against the stretch ceiling 12.
  • An important advantage of the present invention is the fact that a higher degree of flexibility is obtained as regards the horizontal position of the cover section 22 with respect to the clamping section 5, so that a proper abutment of the cover section 22 against the wall 3 can be guaranteed also in the case of a relatively strongly inclined position of the wall 3 and/or a great height of the cover section 22.
  • the finishing system provides a possibility of easily exchanging the cover 22, if desired, thus making it possible to realise an entirely new appearance.
  • clamping section 5 is designed so that it would also be possible, in a non-claimed alternative, not to use a separate cover section 22, and that consequently the clamping section 5 in fact functions as a cover section, in which connection it should be realised that the end 18 of the leg 16 abuts against the end 17 of the legs 15 in unloaded condition, so that no gap that is visible from the room 2 is present therebetween but rather a seam, which will hardly be visible, if at all.
