PT10196U - THERMO-VENTILATED AND PORCELANATE FIXING SYSTEM - Google Patents

Abstract

The present invention relates to the area of façades, more precisely referring to a series of elements for the construction of thermo-vented façades, comprising 'U' chutes (1) that are fixed to the vertical wall and are parallel to each other , PRESENTING THE ABAS (2) TURNED OUTDOORS; (3) which are fixed to the groove (1), having a flap (4) on which the cover plate (7) is seated; (5) having two blades (4) being used after placement of the first row of cover plates (7) in order to secure the already placed plates and to serve as support for the substep.

Description

PORCELANATOS SYSTEM

The present invention relates to a series of elements to be applied in the construction of ventilated facades. Ventilated facades are wall coverings made of ceramic plaques or other materials (marble, granite, wood) that are applied over structures creating a sort of ventilated channel between the wall and the facade.

The ventilation channels act as insulation channels allowing better breathing of the wall to be coated. The state of the art for ventilated facades demonstrates that the application of slabs to special metal structures without the use of cements present complex and quite honorable systems. Accordingly, the present invention describes a method which, through the use of elements designed for the purpose, satisfactorily overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks, allowing the construction of ventilated facades in a simple and economical manner, regardless of the type of material used for coating.

A " U " (1) having a length of 3000 mm and two flaps (2) at the top, so as to enable the fastening of the clamps (3) and (5) described below. The rails are preferably manufactured in two types of materials: galvanized sheet or aluminum. The gutter can contain several fixing points on the concrete wall (6) according to the materials to be supported.

At the end of applying the gutter, the first fastening clamp (3) of the various materials of the facade (phenolic, porcelain, stone, glass, etc.) is placed, the clamp is fixed in the gutter by two autoroscantes in the existing hurricane. The initiation / termination clamp (3) has only one locking tab (4) or locking for the facade plates (7) according to Figures 2 and 3.

After the first clamp 3 and the plate 7 are applied, the second clamp 5 is applied with two tabs 4 or engagement (Fig. 4 and 5). The clamp is fixed by two self-tapping members in the chute and one tab 4 engages the bottom plate 7, the other tab 4 lies to the next plate 7 to be applied. The clamps (3) and (5) of 2mm thickness are preferably made of stainless steel or galvanized sheet.

At the end, the last plate is fixed with the termination clamp (3) but unlike the initial clamp. An example of the application of this method is shown in Figure 9.
