Velken, Matthias, Hofstr. 34, 48712 Gescher "Profile bracket for cladding elements"

The innovation concerns a profile holder for cladding elements

elements according to the generic term of the main claim.

Cladding elements are known in the area of the roof or the roof finish of houses, and with these cladding elements, for example, roof overhangs on the underside

A corresponding construction is known from DE-GM 200 02 389.6 "Kit and device for gutter fastening".

In this utility model, in addition to the attachment of a

Rain gutter also describes the attachment of a vertically arranged cladding panel as well as the attachment of a horizontally arranged cladding panel to the roof overhang of a house.

The described bracket for a horizontal cladding panel for cladding a roof overhang enables a simple yet durable fastening of such a horizontal cladding panel. An approximately F-shaped bracket is attached to the house wall, and

The edge of a cladding panel can be inserted into the holder, which is held at its other end by further brackets that are not of interest in this context.

The disadvantage of such a bracket is that the profile arranged on the house wall, which can be made of metal, for example, immediately makes any unevenness of the house wall clear. So if the house wall is not exactly straight in horizontal view, but

but in some areas it protrudes and in other areas

&Lgr; ΛΛΛ.ΜΩ ·· · · * &Ggr;

This irregularity of the house wall becomes clear due to the perfectly straight F-profile that is arranged on it. This can lead to an unfavourable overall visual impression.

By closing off the roof overhang with a horizontal cladding panel arranged underneath it, condensation can also occur in the cavity closed off by the cladding panel, and this can affect the durability of the load-bearing wooden elements.

elements, such as roof rafters, etc.

The innovation is therefore based on the task of creating a fastening device for cladding elements in the construction sector, in particular for cladding roof overhangs.

fen, which leaves a visually excellent impression, even if the masonry is not straight.

This task underlying the innovation is solved by the teaching of the characterizing part of the main claim.

solves.

In other words, a retaining rail for cladding panels is proposed, which is to be installed in the area of the substance supporting the retaining rail, i.e. mostly in the area of the

retaining masonry creates a shadow edge that makes unevenness in the masonry invisible.

Advantageous embodiments of the innovation are explained in the claims below.

In particular, at least one ventilation opening is proposed in the area of the shadow edge in order to enable good ventilation of the clad cavity. 35

An embodiment of the innovation is shown in the drawings, where

Fig. 1 shows a profile holder and

Fig. 2 shows an embodiment of the illustrated

Profile bracket that supports a cladding element.

Referring to Fig. 1, the profile holder marked 1 consists of a contact surface 2, which has openings 3 and 4, so that the profile holder 1 can be moved over the contact surface 2

with the aid of screws, nails, etc., which can be passed through the openings 3, 4, e.g. it can be connected to a wall of the building.

In addition, the profile holder 1 has a holder 5 which

consists of an upper wall 6 and a lower wall 7. These walls are formed essentially perpendicular to the contact surface 2 and enable the insertion of a wall area of a cladding element into this receptacle 5.

The rear area 8 of the lower wall 7 is offset laterally from the contact surface 2, so that when the profile holder 1 is mounted, an area of a so-called shadow edge 9 is created, i.e. this area 9 lies in a shadow area and

does not indicate whether the support holding the contact surface 2, such as a wall, is unevenly formed.

In this embodiment, the upper wall 6 and the lower wall 7 are connected to a rear wall 10.

bound.

In this embodiment, the entire profile holder 1 consists of a shaped metal profile, which is inexpensive to manufacture in terms of production costs.

other can be achieved by the elasticity of the preferably metal

made of sheet metal profile bracket 1 and thus allows a corresponding tolerance in the thickness of the cladding element to be inserted.

The ends 11 and 12 of the walls 6 and 7, which are directed in the direction of the cladding element to be held, are slightly inclined inwards in this embodiment in order to thereby clamp the cladding element to be held. This ensures that the cladding element to be held is held securely.

and, for example, in windy conditions, rattling of the held cladding element is reliably prevented.

It is also pointed out that in the area of the shadow edge 9 ventilation openings are provided in a web 15,

whereby the web 15 in turn supports the upper wall 6. These ventilation openings 14 enable controlled ventilation of the cavity of the structure covered by the cladding element.

Referring to Fig. 2, an overall view of a roof wall area shows the profile bracket 1, which is attached to the masonry 16 of the building. The cladding element 17, which is cut at the front, is inserted into the profile bracket 1 and is secured at its opposite end by a

another supporting structure that is not of interest here. The ventilation openings 14 provide controlled ventilation of the paneled space, which is covered by the paneling element 17 and the vertically arranged paneling element 18.

In an advantageous embodiment, the profile holder 1 can also be designed in several parts in order to enable greater variability, because with a corresponding design, either the individual parts can be used alone, if

This is desired. However, the individual parts can also be

so that, for example, the profile holder shown in the exemplary embodiment is obtained.

In an advantageous embodiment, the separation point is provided in the area of the end 11 of the upper wall in order to

Profile holder 1 to form two sub-elements, whereby one sub-element consists essentially of the contact surface 2, the web 15 and the adjoining wall, e.g. up to the end 11. The second sub-element then consists of the upper wall 6 and the lower wall 7. This

The separation point is marked with 16 in Fig. 1. This separation has the advantage that the upper part element can also be used as a pure angle element in isolation, and if the proposed profile bracket is to be used, this upper part element can be easily connected, e.g. by

They can be connected to one another by squeezing overlapping wall areas or by gluing, welding, fastening with rivets, etc.

Claims (9)
