Description
La présente invention se rapporte à la structure à câbles ou fil tendus destinée à supporter des panneaux de façade objet de la demande de brevet européen EP-A-0 387 127 du même inventeur, et concerne des dispositions de nature à en réduire l'encombrement et à en simplifier et accélérer la mise en oeuvre.The present invention relates to the structure with cables or stretched wire intended to support facade panels which are the subject of European patent application EP-A-0 387 127 by the same inventor, and relates to arrangements capable of reducing their bulk. and to simplify and accelerate its implementation.
Outre les avantages que la structure à câbles tendus (voir EP-A-0 387 127) confère à la façade finie; autoréglage de toutes les fixations intermédiaires entre le haut et le bas de la façade, supportage des éléments de façade indifférent aux tolérances et déformations du gros-oeuvre, liberté de choix et positionnement des éléments de stabilité sous les actions du vent, adaptabilité aux effets des séismes, compensation élastique de la dilatation, possibilité de recalage altimétrique de la façade pendant ou après fluage du gros-oeuvre ...etc, la structure à câble tendus constitue un moyen de mise en oeuvre de la façade qu'il convient d'optimiser.In addition to the advantages which the tensioned cable structure (see EP-A-0 387 127) gives to the finished facade; self-adjustment of all intermediate fasteners between the top and bottom of the facade, support of facade elements indifferent to tolerances and deformations of the shell, freedom of choice and positioning of the elements of stability under the actions of the wind, adaptability to the effects of earthquakes, elastic compensation of expansion, possibility of altimetric readjustment of the facade during or after creep of the shell ... etc, the tensioned cable structure constitutes a means of implementation of the facade which should be optimized .
La présente invention concerne la forme et la disposition des accessoires moniles par rapport au câble, destinés soit à en assurer la liaison au gros-oeuvre dans le plan horizontal, soit à supporter et fixer les éléments de façade.
Les dispositions de la demande initiale obligent à la mise en oeuvre du manchon coulissant servant au supportage et à la fixation des éléments de façade avant réalisation de la liaison horizontale au gros-oeuvre. La forme ou l'équipement des manchons servant à la fixation des éléments de façades pouvant être différents selon la nature de ceux-ci, la mise en oeuvre du câble ne peut intervenir avant que soit précisée de manière irréversible la composition de la façade.The present invention relates to the shape and arrangement of the monile accessories with respect to the cable, intended either to ensure the connection to the main structure in the horizontal plane, or to support and fix the facade elements.
The provisions of the initial application require the implementation of the sliding sleeve used for supporting and fixing the facade elements before making the horizontal connection to the main structure. The shape or the equipment of the sleeves used for fixing the elements of facades can be different according to the nature of these, the implementation of the cable cannot intervene before the composition of the facade is irreversibly specified.
Selon une première disposition de l'invention, l'organe de liaison du câble au gros- oeuvre est constitué par: une pièce tubulaire coulissant verticalement sur le manchon cylindrique serti sur le câble, une tige horizontale ou une vis fixée par l'une de ses extrémités sur un côté de la pièce tubulaire et solidaire à son autre extrémité d'une platine ou de tout autre moyen permettant sa fixation directe ou indirecte au gros-oeuvre.
L'on voit qu'à partir de cette première disposition, la stabilité du câble sous les actions du vent peut être acquise avant la mise en oeuvre de tout organe dépendant de la composition de la façade.
Selon une deuxième disposition de l'invention, l'organe de fixation des éléments de façade est constitué par une pièce en aluminium extrudé par exemple, comportant une partie tubulaire concentrique au câble et à l'organe de liaison au gros-oeuvre sur lequel elle coulisse verticalement, et les appendices nécessaires à la fixation des éléments de façade par vissage ou accrochage. Comme initialement, cette pièce prend appui soit sur l'écrou vérin solidaire du manchon serti sur le câble lorsqu'elle est affectée au supportage des éléments de façade, soit sur un ressort hélicoidal concentrique au manchon serti et lui-même appuyé sur un écrou situé en partie basse de ce dernier, lorsqu'elle doit restée coulissante pour permettre la libre dilatation des éléments de la façade.
La partie tubulaire de cette pièce est ouverte sur sa face tournée vers le gros-oeuvre et sur toute sa hauteur pour ménager le passage de la tige horizontale de l'organe de liaison au second oeuvre.
L'on voit selon cette deuxième disposition, que d'une part la concentricité des éléments mobiles réduit très sensiblement l'encombrement de la structure, et que d'autre part la pièce de fixation des éléments de la façade, tributaire de la nature de ceux-ci, peut être posée après mise en oeuvre du câble et reste amovible et donc interchangeable jusqu'à la pose des éléments de ladite façade.According to a first arrangement of the invention, the cable connecting member to the shell consists of: a tubular piece sliding vertically on the cylindrical sleeve crimped on the cable, a horizontal rod or a screw fixed by one of its ends on one side of the tubular part and secured at its other end to a plate or any other means allowing its direct or indirect fixing to the shell.
It is seen that from this first arrangement, the stability of the cable under the actions of the wind can be acquired before the implementation of any member depending on the composition of the facade.
According to a second arrangement of the invention, the member for fixing the facade elements is constituted by a piece of extruded aluminum for example, comprising a tubular part concentric with the cable and with the structural member for connection to which it slides vertically, and the appendices necessary for fixing the facade elements by screwing or hanging. As initially, this part is supported either on the jack nut integral with the sleeve crimped on the cable when it is assigned to the support of the facade elements, or on a helical spring concentric with the crimped sleeve and itself supported on a nut located in the lower part of the latter, when it has to remain sliding to allow free expansion of the elements of the facade.
The tubular part of this part is open on its face facing the main structure and over its entire height to provide for the passage of the horizontal rod of the connecting member to the second work.
We see according to this second arrangement, that on the one hand the concentricity of the movable elements very significantly reduces the size of the structure, and that on the other hand the fixing part of the elements of the facade, dependent on the nature of these can be installed after the cable has been used and remains removable and therefore interchangeable until the elements of said facade are installed.
Selon une troisième disposition de l'invention, la partie tubulaire de l'organe de liaison au gros-oeuvre pourra être ouverte sur toute sa hauteur, sur sa face opposée à celle qui reçoit la tige horizontale et sur une largeur légèrement supérieure au diamètre du câble.
L'on voit que cette troisième disposition de l'invention, également applicable aux écrous et rondelles à disposer sur le manchon serti, ajoute à la souplesse de mise en oeuvre de la structure dont les câbles peuvent ainsi être posés et tendus sans enfilage préalable des accessoires.
Selon une quatrième disposition de l'invention, la face de la pièce de fixation sur laquelle viennent en applique les éléments de la façade, et la face de la platine de l'organe de liaison au gros-oeuvre sont équidistantes de l'axe du câble.
L'on voit que cette quatrième disposition permet, après rotation à 180 degrés de l'ensemble des pièces concentriques au manchon serti, d'assurer la liaison au gros-oeuvre par l'intermédiaire d'une pièce située côté extérieur du câble afin de pouvoir fixer un composant de la façade situé côté intérieur du même câble tel par exemple un raidisseur vertical assurant la stabilité au vent des fixations intermédiaires entre deux parties du gros-oeuvre.
Selon une dernière disposition de l'invention, l'organe de liaison au gros-oeuvre peut comporter, à l'extrémité côté gros-oeuvre de la tige horizontale, une pièce cylindrique verticale capable d'une rotation limitée dans le plan horizontal par rapport à la pièce qui la lie au dit gros-oeuvre. Un ressort à lame agissant dans le plan horizontal fixé en son milieu sur la tige horizontale et appuyé à chacune de ses extrémité sur la pièce solidaire du gros-oeuvre pourra si nécessaire assurer la stabilité de l'ensemble sous les charges horizontales appliquées parallèle ment au plan de la façade.
L'on voit que selon cette dernière disposition, les effets horizontaux des séismes -déplacements relatifs et accélérés du gros-oeuvre- seront amortis par l'action de la bielle ainsi constituée. Cette disposition associée à la souplesse et à l'èlasticitè du câble confère à la façade ainsi construite le caractère parasi soi que exigible dans les régions sensibles du globe.According to a third arrangement of the invention, the tubular part of the structural work connecting member can be opened over its entire height, on its face opposite to that which receives the horizontal rod and over a width slightly greater than the diameter of the cable.
It can be seen that this third arrangement of the invention, also applicable to the nuts and washers to be placed on the crimped sleeve, adds to the flexibility of implementation of the structure whose cables can thus be laid and stretched without prior threading of the accessories.
According to a fourth arrangement of the invention, the face of the fixing piece on which the elements of the facade are applied, and the face of the plate of the structural work connecting member are equidistant from the axis of the cable.
It can be seen that this fourth arrangement makes it possible, after 180 degrees rotation of all the parts concentric with the crimped sleeve, to ensure the connection to the main structure by means of a part located on the outside of the cable in order to ability to fix a component of the facade located on the inside of the same cable such as a vertical stiffener ensuring wind stability of the intermediate fasteners between two parts of the shell.
According to a final arrangement of the invention, the structural work connecting member may comprise, at the structural work side end of the horizontal rod, a vertical cylindrical part capable of limited rotation in the horizontal plane relative to to the piece that links it to the said shell. A leaf spring acting in the horizontal plane fixed in its middle on the horizontal rod and supported at each of its ends on the part integral with the shell can if necessary ensure the stability of the assembly under the horizontal loads applied parallel to the plan of the facade.
We see that according to this last provision, the horizontal effects of earthquakes - relative and accelerated displacements of the shell - will be damped by the action of the connecting rod thus formed. This provision combined with flexibility and the elasticity of the cable gives the facade thus constructed the parasitic character that is required in sensitive regions of the globe.
Les dessins ci-annexés représentent, à titre nullement limitatif, l'un des modes de réalisation de l'invention.

La figure 5 est une vue en perspective des phases successives de mise en oeuvre du dispositif figurant en 4.
La figure 6 est une coupe horizontale au dessus d'une fixation d'éléments de vêture d'un mur aveugle.
La figure est une coupe horizontale au dessus d'une fixation d'éléments de façade conformément à une disposition dépendante de l'invention.
Ces figures montrent le câble 1 et son manchon serti 2 tels que décrits dans la demande de brevet EP-A-0 387 127.
Conformément à la présente invention, l'organe de liaison au gros-oeuvre A est constitué par le tube 3 ou le tube ouvert 3a solidaire de la tige filetée 4 vissée dans la platine 5 elle-même fixée soit comme figuré en 1 par vissage sur un raidisseur vertical intérieur A solidaire du gros-oeuvre B, soit comme figuré en 4 par vissage sur une pièce en forme d'oméga 11 située côté extérieur du câble et solidarisée au gros-oeuvre B par des tiges d'ancrage 12, soit comme figuré en 6 par des chevilles d'ancrage 13 directement au gros-oeuvre. Ce montage permet le libre déplacement vertical du manchon serti sur le câble sans induire de contraintes, ni dans l'organe de liaison, ni dans le gros-oeuvre. La stabilité du dispositif sous les charges dues au vent appliquées perpendiculairement au plan de la façade est assurée par la tige 4 travaillant en compression ou traction selon le sens de ces charges.The attached drawings represent, by way of non-limiting example, one of the embodiments of the invention.
Figure 1 is a horizontal section above a fixing of facade elements plumb with a vertical stiffener.
Figure 2 is a half section and half elevation of the device shown in 1 when it is carrying the facade elements.
Figure 3 is an elevation of the device shown in 1 when it is not carrying the elements of the facade.
Figure 4 is a horizontal section above a connection to the shell at a floor slab and plumb with an internal vertical stiffener.
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the successive phases of implementation of the device shown in 4.
Figure 6 is a horizontal section above a fastening of cladding elements of a blind wall.
The figure is a horizontal section above a fixing of facade elements in accordance with an arrangement dependent on the invention.
These figures show the
In accordance with the present invention, the structural connection member A consists of the
Conformément encore à l'invention, la pièce de fixation 6 des éléments de façade C est constituée par un profil, en aluminium extrudé par exemple, comportant une partie tubulaire ouverte sur sa face opposée aux éléments de façade C dont le diamètre interne est déterminé pour permettre son libre coulissement vertical sur la partie tubulaire 3 de l'organe de liaison au gros-oeuvre. Cette même pièce 6 comporte ici deux ailes parallèles au plan de la façade, destinées à la fixation en applique de ses composants, qu'ils soient extérieurs comme figures en 1 les châssis C ou intérieur comme figuré en 2 le raidisseur vertical A.
Elle comporte en outre si besoin est une aile extérieure perpendiculaire au plan de la façade destinée à la fixation par accrochage de ses composants, comme figures en 6 les panneaux de vêture D.
Comme initialement, la pièce de fixation 6 est appuyée par l'intermédiaire de la rondelle 9, soit sur l'écrou-vérin 7 et son contre-écrou 8 lorsqu'elle assume le supportage des éléments de la façade, soit sur le ressort 10 lui-même porte par l'écrou 8 lorsqu'elle doit permettre un déplacement vertical relatif entre elle et l'organe de liaison au gros-oeuvre. Pour ce faire la hauteur de la pièce 6 est plus grande que la hauteur de la partie tubulaire 3 de l'organe de liaison au gros-oeuvre, l'écart étant fonction du déplacement relatif maximum envisagé.
Conformément à une disposition dépendante de l'invention, l'organe de liaison comporte comme figuré en 7, à l'extrémité côté gros-oeuvre de la tige 4, une pièce cylindrique 14 dont l'axe est parallèle à l'axe de la partie tubulaire 3. Le cylindre 14 est engagé dans la gorge verticale ouverte d'une pièce 15, ici réalisée à partir du même profil que la pièce 6, pour être capable d'une rotation autour de son axe vertical et permettre ainsi, en cas de séisme par exemple, le déplacement horizontal relatif de la façade et du gros-oeuvre dans leur plan respectif parallèle au plan de la façade. Le ressort à lame 16 solidaire de la tige 4, ici appuyé à chacune de ses extrémités sur le raidisseur A assure si besoin est la stabilité du dispositif sous l'action des charges ordinaires appliquées parallèlement au plan de la façade.Still in accordance with the invention, the fastening
