Description

Parement de pierres artificielles d'un nouveau typeNew type of artificial stone facing

La présente invention concerne un parement de pierres artificielles constitué de dalles élémentaires de façade et d'angle ainsi que les dalles pour la réalisation du parement .The present invention relates to an artificial stone facing consisting of elementary facade and corner slabs as well as the slabs for producing the facing.

Un parement du type précité dans lequel chaque dalle est conformée pour présenter l'apparence d'un assemblage de plusieurs pierres séparées par des lignes de joint est notamment connu par le brevet FR-A-1.366.104 qui décrit des éléments modulaires moulés dont la face de parement présente une pluralité de parties rectangulaires en relief ayant l'apparence de pierres à bâtir véritables séparées par des gorges ayant l'aspect de joints de parement, les bords verticaux de ces éléments présentant respectivement une forme saillante et une forme rentrante complémentaire permettant un emboîtement desdits éléments dans une direction horizontale.A facing of the aforementioned type in which each slab is shaped to present the appearance of an assembly of several stones separated by joint lines is known in particular from patent FR-A-1,366,104 which describes modular molded elements whose facing face has a plurality of rectangular raised portions having the appearance of real building stones separated by grooves having the appearance of facing joints, the vertical edges of these elements respectively having a projecting shape and a complementary re-entrant shape allowing nesting of said elements in a horizontal direction.

Il est également connu à travers le brevet EP-A-0.814.218 d'assembler des éléments modulaires autobloquants, chaque élément modulaire comprenant un corps principal correspondant à une maille quadrangulaire et présentant latéralement d'une part une partie saillante ou excroissance sur deux de ses côtés perpendiculaires et d'autre part une échancrure dans ses deux autres côtés perpendiculaires. Une telle solution permet un assemblage d'éléments au moyen d'un seul type d'élément modulaire.It is also known through patent EP-A-0.814.218 to assemble self-locking modular elements, each modular element comprising a main body corresponding to a quadrangular mesh and having laterally on the one hand a projecting part or protrusion on two of its perpendicular sides and on the other hand a notch in its two other perpendicular sides. Such a solution allows an assembly of elements by means of a single type of modular element.

Toutefois, cette solution présente l'inconvénient de disposer d'un élément modulaire possédant un grand nombre d'excroissances qui rendent l'élément modulaire fragile, en particulier lors de son stockage ou lors de sa pose. Par ailleurs, la multiplicité de ces excroissances, nécessaires à l'assemblage par emboîtement, rend l'élément modulaire encombrant de telle sorte que le stockage et le conditionnement sont particulièrement onéreux. Enfin, le fait de disposer d'un seul type d'élément modulaire assemblable à un même type d'élément modulaire génère une régularité de l'assemblage qui engendre la formation de configurations régulières qui sont susceptibles de laisser transparaître le caractère factice du parement.However, this solution has the disadvantage of having a modular element having a large number of protrusions which make the modular element fragile, in particular during its storage or during its installation. Furthermore, the multiplicity of these protuberances, necessary for assembly by interlocking, makes the modular element bulky so that storage and packaging are particularly expensive. Finally, the fact of having a single type of modular element which can be assembled with the same type of modular element generates a regularity of the assembly which generates the formation of regular configurations which are capable of revealing the factitious nature of the facing.

Enfin, il est connu à travers les documents US-A-2.130.911 et GB-A-0.718.778 des dalles au contour particulièrement complexe .Finally, it is known from documents US-A-2,130,911 and GB-A-0,718,778 of tiles with a particularly complex outline.

Un but de la présente invention est de proposer un parement d'un nouveau type, ce parement présentant les mêmes avantages de pose que ceux décrits dans 1 ' état de la technique tout en présentant un encombrement au stockage et au conditionnement limité et une possibilité d'assembler lesdits éléments du parement sans laisser transparaître le caractère factice de ce dernier.An object of the present invention is to provide a facing of a new type, this facing having the same installation advantages as those described in one state of the art while having a space requirement during storage and limited packaging and a possibility of '' assembling the said elements of the facing without revealing the factitious nature of the latter.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un parement de pierres artificielles constitué de dalles élémentaires de façade et d'angle, chaque dalle étant conformée pour présenter l'apparence d'un assemblage de plusieurs pierres séparées par des lignes de joint, les dalles de façade étant de forme générale sensiblement rectangulaire, et présentant sur leurs côtés opposés transversaux respectivement un profil mâle et un profil femelle, alignés pour assurer l'assemblage des dalles, caractérisé en ce que : quatre dalles élémentaires dif férenciés forment un module de pose assemblable par j uxtaposition ou superposition à un module de pose similaire , ledit module étant formé d' un premier rang de deux dalles et d' un deuxième rang de deux dalles décalées par rapport à celles du premier rang, - le premier rang étant constitué d' une première dalle dont le bord longitudinal est à une première distance du profil mâle ou femelle , et d' une deuxième dalle dont le bord longitudinal est à une deuxième distance du profil mâle ou femelle différente de la première distance de sorte que le bord longitudinal des dalles forme une ligne brisée avec un pas correspondant à une longueur de dalle , le deuxième rang étant constitué d'une troisième dalle et d'une quatrième dalle, présentant sur leurs bords longitudinaux des encochages d'angle diagonalement opposés de sorte que le bord longitudinal du deuxième rang est conformé au bord longitudinal du premier rang .To this end, the invention relates to a facing of artificial stones consisting of elementary slabs of facade and corner, each slab being shaped to present the appearance of an assembly of several stones separated by joint lines, the facade slabs being of generally substantially rectangular shape, and having on their opposite transverse sides respectively a profile male and a female profile, aligned to ensure the assembly of the slabs, characterized in that: four dif ferentiated elementary slabs form a laying module which can be assembled by j uxtaposition or superposition on a similar laying module, said module being formed of a first row of two tiles and a second row of two tiles offset from those of the first row, - the first row consisting of a first tile whose longitudinal edge is at a first distance from the male or female profile, and a second slab whose longitudinal edge is at a second distance from the male or female profile different from the first distance e so that the longitudinal edge of the slabs forms a broken line with a pitch corresponding to a slab length, the second row consisting of a third slab and a fourth slab, having on their longitudinal edges corner notches diagonally opposite so that the longitudinal edge of the second row conforms to the longitudinal edge of the first row.

Grâce à cette conception du parement sous forme d'un assemblage de modules, chaque module étant lui-même constitué de quatre dalles, il en résulte une pose aisée dudit parement, un encombrement réduit de chaque dalle élémentaire et une suppression d'un aspect factice du parement réalisé. Selon une forme de réalisation préférée de 1 ' invention, les encochages d'angle de la troisième dalle et de la quatrième dalle du deuxième rang forment à l'état assemblé des dalles, le long d'un des bords longitudinaux desdites dalles un encochage pour absorber le décalage de hauteur entre les deux dalles du premier rang et, le long du bord longitudinal opposé, une saillie de compensation de décalage de hauteur d'un module superposé.Thanks to this design of the facing in the form of an assembly of modules, each module itself being made up of four tiles, this results in easy installation of said facing, a reduced overall size of each elementary tile and the elimination of a dummy appearance. of the facing produced. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the corner notches of the third slab and of the fourth slab of the second row form, in the assembled state, slabs, along one of the longitudinal edges of said slabs, a notch for absorb the height offset between the two first row tiles and, along the opposite longitudinal edge, a height offset compensation projection of a stacked module.

L'invention a encore pour objet une dalle élémentaire de façade caractérisée en ce qu'elle est destinée à la réalisation d'un parement de pierres artificielles du type précité .The invention also relates to an elementary facade slab characterized in that it is intended for producing a facing of artificial stones of the aforementioned type.

L'invention a encore pour objet une dalle élémentaire d'angle caractérisée en ce qu'elle est destinée à la réalisation d'un parement de pierres artificielles du type précité .Another subject of the invention is an elementary corner slab, characterized in that it is intended for producing a facing of artificial stones of the aforementioned type.

L'invention sera bien comprise à la lecture de la description suivante d'exemples de réalisation, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :The invention will be clearly understood on reading the following description of exemplary embodiments, with reference to the appended drawings in which:

Comme mentionné ci-dessus, l'invention a pour objet un parement de pierres artificielles imitant l'aspect d'une maçonnerie traditionnelle de pierres sèches ou de pierres avec joints. Ce parement 1 est constitué de dalles élémentaires de façade, représentées en 2 aux figures, et de dalles élémentaires d'angle, représentées en 3 aux figures. Chaque dalle de façade 2 ou d'angle 3 est généralement obtenue par moulage d'une composition à base d'une résine de synthèse, de préférence une résine polyester, et de charges minérales telles que des charges de quartz, de silice, de marbre ou autres pour conférer à la dalle réalisée l'apparence d'un assemblage de plusieurs pierres 11 séparées par des lignes de joint 12 comme l'illustre la figure 4 dans laquelle plusieurs modèles d'une dalle de façade 2 ont été représentés, chaque modèle correspondant à une empreinte de moule différente. Il peut ainsi exister plus de cinquante empreintes de moules permettant d'avoir une très grande variété d'aspect, sans jamais retrouver deux joints verticaux superposés "coup de sabre" . Chaque dalle monobloc ainsi réalisée présente une épaisseur généralement comprise entre 12 et 15 mm. Cette épaisseur peut être accrue en particulier pour les murs porteurs. Chaque dalle peut ainsi être apposée sur un support généralement vertical, intérieur ou extérieur. Elle peut, de manière similaire, être appliquée sur un support horizontal. A titre de support admissible, il peut être cité les maçonneries en blocs de béton creux ou pleins, en blocs de terre cuite recouvertes d'un enduit traditionnel ou monocouche, le béton, le béton cellulaire, le plâtre, les carreaux de plâtre, les plaques de plâtre cartonnées, etc. La composition des dalles permet d'obtenir des produits perméables à la vapeur d'eau par les joints non gélifs, de porosité très faible, de manière à faciliter leur entretien. Ces dalles se caractérisent en particulier par leur facilité de nettoyage lorsqu'elles sont revêtues de graffitis.As mentioned above, the invention relates to a facing of artificial stones imitating the appearance of traditional masonry of dry stones or stones with joints. This facing 1 consists of elementary facade tiles, shown in 2 in the figures, and elementary corner tiles, shown in 3 in the figures. Each facade slab 2 or corner slab 3 is generally obtained by molding a composition based on a synthetic resin, preferably a polyester resin, and mineral fillers such as fillers of quartz, silica, marble or others to give the slab produced the appearance of an assembly of several stones 11 separated by joint lines 12 as illustrated in FIG. 4 in which several models of a facade slab 2 have been represented, each model corresponding to a different mold footprint. There can thus be more than fifty mold imprints allowing to have a very wide variety of appearance, without ever finding two superimposed vertical joints "saber stroke". Each monobloc slab thus produced has a thickness generally between 12 and 15 mm. This thickness can be increased in particular for load-bearing walls. Each slab can thus be affixed to a generally vertical support, inside or outside. It can, similarly, be applied on a horizontal support. As an admissible support, masonry can be cited in hollow or solid concrete blocks, in terracotta blocks covered with a traditional coating. or monolayer, concrete, aerated concrete, plaster, plaster tiles, cardboard plasterboard, etc. The composition of the slabs makes it possible to obtain products permeable to water vapor by non-gelling joints, of very low porosity, so as to facilitate their maintenance. These tiles are characterized in particular by their ease of cleaning when they are coated with graffiti.

Ce parement 1 de pierres artificielles est obtenu par assemblage de modules M dont un exemple de réalisation est représenté à la figure 1. Ce module M est constitué de quatre dalles 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D élémentaires différenciées. Un tel module M est assemblable par juxtaposition ou superposition à un module de pose similaire. Par similaire, on entend un module dont le profil extérieur est identique mais dont la surface peut présenter un aspect différent. Chaque module M est formé d'un premier rang de deux dalles 2A, 2B, chaque dalle de ce rang présentant au moins un profil mâle 4 et un profil femelle 5 sur deux de ses bords latéraux dits transversaux opposés. Le profil mâle 4 et le profil femelle 5 d'une dalle 2A de ce rang de deux dalles sont positionnés à une distance d'un bord 6 longitudinal de la dalle 2A différente par rapport à l'autre dalle 2B du rang pour créer une ligne Ll horizontale brisée avec un pas correspondant à une longueur de dalle annulant un effet visuel et répétitif entre deux modules assemblés. Ainsi, dans l'exemple représenté, les profils femelle 5 et mâle 4 de la dalle 2A sont disposés à une distance Dl du bord longitudinal supérieur de la dalle 2A tandis que le profil mâle 4 et le profil femelle 5 de la dalle 2B sont disposés à une distance D2 du bord longitudinal de la dalle 2B, D2 étant supérieur à Dl pour générer un décalage entre lesdites dalles lorsque ces dalles 2A, 2B sont assemblées par emboîtement et positionnées côte à côte. Ce module M est encore constitué d'un deuxième rang de dalles 2C, 2D assemblées par leurs bords longitudinaux au premier rang de dalles 2A, 2B. Ces dalles 2C, 2D sont décalées dans les exemples représentés d'une demi-longueur par rapport aux dalles 2A, 2B du premier rang. Ces dalles 2C, 2D présentent sur leurs bords longitudinaux des encochages d'angle 7, 8 diagonalement opposés. Ainsi, les encochages 7, qui affectent la forme générale d'un L allongé, forment, à l'état assemblé, des dalles 2C, 2D au niveau du bord longitudinal supérieur desdites dalles, une saillie 10 de compensation du décalage de hauteur d'un module superposé. De manière analogue, les encochages 8 des dalles 2C, 2D positionnés sur le bord longitudinal opposé desdites dalles forment, à l'état assemblé des dalles 2C et 2D, un encochage 9 présentant une dimension totale égale à deux fois la dimension d'un encochage 8 pour permettre l'absorption du décalage de hauteur entre les deux dalles 2A, 2B du premier rang et venir coiffer notamment le bord longitudinal supérieur de la dalle 2B du premier rang se logeant ainsi à emboîtement à l'intérieur de cet encochage 9. Bien évidemment, chaque dalle 2C, 2D du deuxième rang, de même que chaque dalle 2A, 2B du premier rang, comporte sur ses bords transversaux opposés un profil mâle 4 et un profil femelle 5 alignés pour assurer l'assemblage des dalles.This facing 1 of artificial stones is obtained by assembling modules M, an exemplary embodiment of which is shown in FIG. 1. This module M consists of four elementary slabs 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, differentiated. Such a module M can be assembled by juxtaposition or superposition on a similar laying module. By similar is meant a module whose exterior profile is identical but whose surface may have a different appearance. Each module M is formed of a first row of two tiles 2A, 2B, each tile of this row having at least one male profile 4 and one female profile 5 on two of its lateral edges, called opposite transverse edges. The male profile 4 and the female profile 5 of a slab 2A of this row of two slabs are positioned at a distance from a longitudinal edge 6 of the slab 2A different from the other slab 2B of the row to create a line Ll broken horizontal with a pitch corresponding to a length of slab canceling a visual and repetitive effect between two assembled modules. Thus, in the example shown, the female 5 and male 4 profiles of the slab 2A are arranged at a distance Dl from the upper longitudinal edge of the slab 2A while the male profile 4 and the female profile 5 of the slab 2B are arranged at a distance D2 from the longitudinal edge of the slab 2B, D2 being greater than Dl to generate an offset between said slabs when these slabs 2A, 2B are assembled by interlocking and positioned side by side. This module M is also made up of a second row of tiles 2C, 2D assembled by their longitudinal edges to the first row of tiles 2A, 2B. These tiles 2C, 2D are offset in the examples shown by half a length with respect to the tiles 2A, 2B of the first row. These tiles 2C, 2D have diagonally opposite notches 7, 8 on their longitudinal edges. Thus, the notches 7, which affect the general shape of an elongated L, form, in the assembled state, slabs 2C, 2D at the upper longitudinal edge of said slabs, a projection 10 for compensating for the height offset of a stacked module. Similarly, the notches 8 of the slabs 2C, 2D positioned on the opposite longitudinal edge of the said slabs form, in the assembled state of the slabs 2C and 2D, a notching 9 having a total dimension equal to twice the dimension of a notching 8 to allow the absorption of the height offset between the two slabs 2A, 2B of the first row and come to cap in particular the upper longitudinal edge of the slab 2B of the first row thus accommodating interlocking inside this notch 9. Good obviously, each slab 2C, 2D of the second row, as well as each slab 2A, 2B of the first row, has on its opposite transverse edges a male profile 4 and a female profile 5 aligned to ensure the assembly of the slabs.

Dans les exemples représentés, les profils mâles 4 et femelles 5 alignés d'une dalle 2 de façade affectent respectivement l'un la forme d'une languette, l'autre la forme d ' un évidement de forme géométrique complémentaire de la languette. Il est à noter que ces mêmes profils sont repris pour les dalles d'angle 3.In the examples shown, the aligned male 4 and female 5 profiles of a faceplate 2 respectively have one the shape of a tongue, the other the shape of a recess of geometrical shape complementary to the tongue. It should be noted that these same profiles are used for corner tiles 3.

La juxtaposition et/ou la superposition de modules du type décrit ci-dessus permettent l'obtention d'un parement conforme à celui représenté à la figure 2. Dans ce parement, il a été représenté un angle sortant séparant deux pans de façade, les dalles servant à la délimitation de cet angle sont appelées dalles d'angle 3. Ces dalles d'angle 3 sont constituées de dalles de façade dont le bord transversal est découpé suivant une ligne L2 passant par les bords verticaux des encochages 7, 8 pour les dalles 2C, 2D du second rang du module et confondue avec la ligne de base des profils mâles 4 pour les dalles 2A, 2B du premier rang. Cette ligne L2 de découpe est plus particulièrement représentée à la figure 3 dans laquelle les parties de dalle représentées en noir correspondent aux parties de dalles qui ont dû être découpées avant la pose desdites dalles. En fonction du type d'angle sortant ou rentrant réalisé, ces dalles d'angle comportent un chant biseauté.The juxtaposition and / or the superposition of modules of the type described above allow obtaining a facing conforming to that shown in Figure 2. In this facing, there is shown an outgoing angle separating two sides of the facade, the slabs used to delimit this angle are called slabs corner 3. These corner tiles 3 consist of facade tiles whose transverse edge is cut along a line L2 passing through the vertical edges of the notches 7, 8 for the tiles 2C, 2D of the second row of the module and combined with the baseline of the male profiles 4 for the tiles 2A, 2B of the first row. This cutting line L2 is more particularly shown in FIG. 3 in which the slab parts shown in black correspond to the slab parts which had to be cut before the laying of said slabs. Depending on the type of outgoing or entering corner made, these corner tiles have a beveled edge.

Grâce à la conception d'un tel module, il en résulte une simplification de pose du parement. Par ailleurs, la suppression de saillies sur les bords longitudinaux des dalles permet d'obtenir des dalles de faible encombrement, facilitant leur stockage et leur conditionnement Thanks to the design of such a module, this results in a simplification of installation of the facing. Furthermore, the elimination of protrusions on the longitudinal edges of the slabs makes it possible to obtain slabs of small bulk, facilitating their storage and packaging.
