Description

"Modular and demountable plasterboard wall, with recovery of the intact material",

The present invention relates to a modular and demountable wall made of plasterboard or the like, particularly suitable for temporary exhibitions and for self-made executions, without resorting to specialized personnel. It can? it can also be advantageously used for the construction of permanent walls, at full height or at half height.

The fire safety regulations led to the abandonment of wood for the construction of dividing or perimeter walls, in favor of plasterboard panels.

Plasterboard walls are commonly made by fixing the panels on metal uprights with screws inserted from the front, in correspondence with the visible surface. After installation, the wall must be carefully grouted, in correspondence with the screws and edges and properly finished.

The assembly of plasterboard walls? therefore laborious and must be done by specialized personnel. Even the eventual disassembly takes a long time and also causes the loss of the material, which can not? be recovered intact.

The purpose of the present invention? to allow quick and easy assembly and disassembly of variously arranged and previously finished plasterboard walls, which can be built on their own, without resorting to specialized personnel. Another purpose? to allow the recovery of the perfectly intact material, for any subsequent reuse. These characteristics make the wall particularly suitable for delimiting the display areas in exhibitions.

The described wall is made up of boxed elements, shaped so that they can be easily coupled by interlocking, with or without intermediate joint and disassembled if necessary. The boxed elements consist of "C" -shaped plasterboard panels, fixed on pairs of male-female uprights in correspondence of the folded parts, in order to leave the visible surface perfectly intact, which can? thus be finished in advance, for example with wallpaper. The wall in place does not require grouting and can be quickly disassembled, with recovery of the intact elements.

The invention is now described in detail, with reference to the attached drawings, which illustrate, by way of example only, one possible embodiment thereof.

Fig. 1 represents a cross section of the boxed elements which can be joined together by interlocking.

Fig. 2 represents a cross section of a corner joining element.

Fig. 3, table 2, shows a junction of a wall at an angle, in an intermediate position.

Fig. 4, table 3, represents a top view of a pair of plasterboard panels, shaped like a? C ".

Fig. 5 represents a top view of the interlocking metal uprights, used for joining the plasterboard panels in the assembly of the boxed elements.

In these figures, reference 1 indicates the visible planes of the plasterboard panels with a C-shaped cross section and with 2 the relative square-folded parts. 3 and 4 indicate respectively the male and female metal uprights, shaped in so as to be able to interlock and keep the planes 1 with the folded parts 2 of the plasterboard panels in a perpendicular position.

The fixing of the panels on the uprights? obtained by means of screws 5, or the like, applied in correspondence with the folded parts 2, so as not to be visible on the mounted wall.

The boxed elements cos? obtained can be easily coupled together, with or without intermediate joint, using a common "U" guide on the floor, with possible skirting board. Walls can be made at full height, by placing another "U" guide on the ceiling, or at half height, by applying upper finishing elements. The wall can? then eventually be dismantled, just as quickly, with recovery of the perfectly intact elements.

To arrange walls in perpendicular positions can? a corner joining element as in fig. 2, formed by the same metal uprights 3 and 4 and by plasterboard panels folded as in the figure, be realized. Also in this case the screws 5 for fixing the panels to the uprights are inserted in correspondence with the folded parts 2 and are not visible when the wall is mounted.

To join intermediate corner walls it is possible to realize boxed elements as in fig. 3, comprising an intermediate metal upright, which can? be either female or male. Also in this case the screws 5 are not visible after coupling.

To delimit doors, or lights in general, boxed elements can be made with both side uprights of the female type. In this case, the panel placed above the light will have? the two male side uprights.

Inside the boxed elements, thermal, electrical systems or materials for thermal or acoustic insulation can be inserted.

Can the boxed elements be supplied already? assembled, in various sizes. To reduce the bulk during transport, the shaped plasterboard panels could be supplied flat, prepared with thick millings to allow the folding of the side parts 2.

The uprights could have profiles of other shapes, which can be joined together and such as to keep the folded parts of the panels square. They could be dovetail, or other similar shapes, with possibility? for inserting the panels from above. The posts may be glued to the panels, rather than fixed with screws. The panels could also be made with other fireproof fibrous materials, similar to plasterboard.

Other non-essential construction details could also be different from those illustrated by way of example only, without thereby departing from the scope of the present invention.

Claims (1)

CLAIMS la) Modular and demountable plasterboard wall, with recovery of the intact material, characterized by the fact that it is? formed by boxed elements consisting of panels (1) and (2) in plasterboard, or similar, folded in a "C" shape, fixed with screws or other joining means, or glued, on pairs of uprights (3) and (4), male-female type, in correspondence of the folded parts (2), in order to leave the visible surface intact, which can? cos? be previously finished; that the boxed elements can be joined together at the uprights (3) and (4), with or without intermediate joint and can be quickly disassembled and recovered perfectly intact in case of need. 2a) Wall as per claim 1, characterized in that the metal uprights (3) and (4) are shaped so as to be coupled together and to keep the visible surfaces (1) square with the folded parts (2 ) of the panels. 3a) Wall as in the previous claims, characterized by the fact that it can? a corner joining element can be made, with the same uprights (3) and (4) arranged in an orthogonal position, to connect perpendicular walls to each other. 4a) Wall as in the previous claims, characterized by the fact that it can? be made an element with one or more? intermediate uprights, perpendicular to the end ones, for corner connection of intermediate walls. 5a) Wall as in the preceding claims, characterized by the fact that the uprights can have variously shaped profiles, such as to be able to interlock and keep the folded parts of the panels square; that they could be dovetail, or similar, with possibility? for inserting the panels from above. 6a) Wall as in the preceding claims, characterized in that boxed elements with opposite uprights of the same type are provided, to delimit doors or lights in general. 7a) Wall as in the previous claims, characterized by the fact that it can? be developed at full height or half height and can? contain fixtures in general. 8a) Wall as in the previous claims, characterized by the fact that the boxed elements could be distributed already? assembled, in various sizes, or, to reduce the bulk during transport, the plasterboard panels could be supplied flat, prepared with the thickness grooves to allow the folding of the side parts 2.
