Definitions

  • the invention relates to a joint to be used in a fireplace as defined in the preamble of claim 1 to establish a joint between a stone part and a structural part made of other material with one another.
  • FI 96347 in which a sheet-like hook is fixed to one longitudinal and two transverse grooves
  • FI 83559 in which a sheet-like, curved hook, provided with end pegs, is inserted into a longitudinal groove and two borings
  • FI 101491 and EP-A-745 810 in which an elongated, sheet-like metal strip provided with gripping projections is inserted into an elongated groove so that the metal strip engages the edges of the groove. All these are functional structures per se, but only applicable to the joining of two stone elements, and particularly soapstone elements, straight and directly with each other.
  • the objective of the invention is to eliminate the drawbacks referred to above.
  • One specific objective of the invention is to disclose a new type of locking part to be used in fireplaces between a stone part and a structural part made of other material, which enables a faster and more cost-efficient making of the joint and which makes the joint tighter and firmer, enabling the use of more simple and thus more advantageous joint parts and minimising the machining of the stone parts to be handled.
  • the invention relates to a locking part to establish a joint between a stone part and a structural part made of other material to one another in a fireplace.
  • the other material usually consists of metal, cast iron or steel, but also e.g. various ceramic materials, tiles and other burned clays as well as various fire-resistant masses are possible.
  • the stone part includes a first planar surface, against which the structural part is to be fastened, and a second planar surface, which is at an angle to the first planar surface and includes a groove extending away from the structural part and being formed by the edges and the bottom. Further more said elongated locking part comprises substantially at one end edge tightening elements.
  • the other end of the locking part includes a coupling element to be inserted into an elongated opening in the structural part forming a counterpart of the coupling element.
  • the first planar surface and the second planar surface of the stone part preferably are perpendicular to each other, and preferably the planar surfaces have a common sharp edge, from which they extend into different directions at an angle of 90 degrees with respect to each other.
  • the stone part functions a stone part in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped.
  • the coupling element consists of a rigid fold of the locking part, preferably a fold of 90 degrees in the elongated locking part.
  • a rigid fold of the locking part preferably a fold of 90 degrees in the elongated locking part.
  • the coupling element consists of a rigid hook, groove or notch, i.e. a suitable shape deviating from straight and uniform and enabling a sufficient gripping between the joint part and the structural part.
  • the locking part includes at least two opposite edge tightening elements for implementing the tightening fastening in both edges of the groove. It is also possible that there are several edge tightening elements on opposite sides of the locking part so that the fastening, tightening and locking of the locking part, and through it that of the structural part, can be implemented along a long stretch in both edges of the groove. It must also be noted that, depending on the locking part, it is possible to use in the invention even a rather low groove, and this groove can always be equal in depth, i.e. the bottom of the groove can be a straight one because the locking and fastening are performed by pressing into the edges of the grooves and not into the borings made on the bottom of the groove, as in the prior-art technique.
  • the edge tightening element consists of a projection, protuberance, edge or peg, which as being partly supported on the groove edge, implements the tightening fastening. It is possible to use any sharp edges known per se that are perpendicular or at a slight oblique angle with respect to the groove to be locked for implementing a suitable locking and tightening. Also variously shaped projections and protuberances may have particular shapes, or figures or series implementing the desired locking and tightening functions may have been formed of them.
  • the locking part consists of a metal strip such as e.g. a flat iron, whose first end has been shaped to form the desired coupling element and which has at its second end, or at least farther from the first end, one or more edge tightening elements.
  • a metal strip such as e.g. a flat iron, whose first end has been shaped to form the desired coupling element and which has at its second end, or at least farther from the first end, one or more edge tightening elements.
  • the locking part consists of a metal bar such as a sufficiently thick and rigid metal wire.
  • the groove in the second planar surface can be curved or complicated, it preferably is a straight groove which is easy and simple to machine.
  • the straight groove preferably is at a right angle, i.e. perpendicular to the second planar surface, although an oblique groove is not an excluded embodiment of the invention.
  • the locking part to be used in fireplaces as defined in the invention has considerable advantages over prior art.
  • the joints between the stone part of the fireplace and structural parts made of other material can be made tight and firm.
  • the joints are easy and simple to make.
  • the locking parts to be used are simple and advantageous, and mounting them is fast with no need for specific tools, just by hammering. Apart from the one longitudinal groove, no other grooves or borings need to be machined in the stone parts as this longitudinal groove usually is ready in the stone parts to be used.
  • Fig. 1 shows four different phases of the fact of how a metallic, sheet-like structural part 2 is fastened and joined with a stone part 1 having the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped.
  • the stone part 1 includes a first straight planar surface 3, against which the sheet-like structural part 2 is fastened, and a second straight planar surface 4, which is perpendicular to the first planar surface 3.
  • Machined on the surface of the second planar surface 4 is a groove 5 of a substantially uniform depth, which is perpendicular to the first planar surface 3, as well as perpendicular to the surface of the sheet-like structural part that comes against the stone part.
  • the locking part 6 to be used consists of a flat iron part having at the first end thereof a short fold of 90 degrees which forms a coupling element 7.
  • a coupling element 7 Arranged in the vicinity of the second end of the locking part 6, on its both planar and wide outer surfaces, are three edge tightening elements 9, i.e. sharp edged ridges, which are at a slight angle with respect to the transverse direction of the elongated locking part.
  • the planar part of the metallic sheet-like structural part that comes against the first planar surface 3 includes, as a counterpart 8 of the coupling element 7, a narrow vertical opening through which the coupling element can be inserted inside, i.e. through the opening.
  • a coupling element 7 is inserted into the counterpart 8, after which the locking part 6 is turned (Fig. c) so as to be in parallel to the groove 5 on top of it, and is stretched on top of the stone part 1 as far as possible so that the parts to be attached 1 and 2 come joined with one another along their entire corresponding surfaces.
  • the locking part 6 is hit e.g. with a hammer substantially straight inside the groove 5.
  • the edge tightening elements 9 engage the opposite edges of the groove, and due to the slight obliqueness of these, pull and tighten the structural part 2 tightly into the planar surface 3. A tidy, fast and firm joint is achieved.
  • Fig. 2 shows another embodiment of the invention in which there are two stone parts 1, and the joint is designed to join these two stone parts with one another at a right angle using an angle profile 10.
  • the locking parts 6 are attached to the counterparts of the coupling elements that are disposed in the angle profile, i.e. the narrow, elongated openings (Fig. a).
  • the stone parts 1 and the angle profile 2 between them are in place (Fig. b)
  • the locking parts 6 are hit into the grooves 5 corresponding to them, whereby the edge tightening elements tighten and lock the stone parts 1 and the angle profile 2 into each other.
  • the counterparts of the coupling elements i.e. the elongated openings in the angle profile, are relatively long with respect to the corresponding width of the locking part 6, substantially double. These openings extend partly into the area of the stone part to be fastened and partly above it. In this manner, the insertion of the locking parts into the openings is successful also when both the stone part and the structural part to be fastened to it already are in place.
  • Fig. 3 shows in more detail one locking part 6 to be used in a joint in accordance with the invention.
  • the flat iron part i.e. the straight, planar, thin and narrow metal strip
  • the flat iron part is, from its one end, turned into a right angle through a short distance, to form at the first end thereof a coupling element 7.
  • edge tightening elements 9 consist of straight and sharp edged ridges or projections whose straight lines are in parallel with one another. These lines are at a slightly oblique angle from the vertical direction with respect to the longitudinal direction of the locking part for implementing the desired tightening locking when hitting the locking part into the groove of the stone.
