Abstract

Abstract A fire resistant structure, and in particular a fire door leaf, having no components of asbestos material, and comprising a sub-frame consisting of two spaced apart arrangements of sub-frame members between which a central panel in the form of a glass fiber reinforced gypsum sheet is attached and two other panels of high density compressed timber fiber board being attached to the sub-frame members on opposite sides of the structure to define, with the central panel, spaces in which insulating material in the form of mineral fiber batts is positioned, with the structure being completed on both faces by panels of sheet steel or wood veneer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 146 words
A fire resistant door or door leaf structure including a sub-frame, central panel means, and a pair of outer panel means attached to said sub-frame, and insulating material between each said outer panel means and said central panel means, said sub-frame comprising two spaced apart arrangements of vertically and horizontally extending sub-frame members between which the central panel means is situated, said sub-frame members being of substantially Z-shaped cross-section and including a flat central web and two flat flanges extending away at right angles from opposite sides of said central web and substantially parallel to each other, said central panel means being connected to one of said flanges and one of said outer panel means to the other flange, with the space defined between said central panel means, said outer panel means, and the central webs of said sub-frame members being filled with said insulating material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 146 words
A fire resistant door or door leaf structure including a sub-frame, central panel means, and a pair of outer panel means attached to said sub-frame, and insulating material between each said outer panel means and said central panel means, said sub-frame comprising two spaced apart arrangements of vertically and horizontally extending sub-frame members between which the central panel means is situated, said sub-frame members being of substantially Z-shaped cross-section and including a flat central web and two flat flanges extending away at right angles from opposite sides of said central web and substantially parallel to each other, said central panel means being connected to one of said flanges and one of said outer panel means to the other flange, with the space defined between said central panel means, said outer panel means, and the central webs of said sub-frame members being filled with said insulating material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
A fire resistant door or door leaf structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein the central panel is a glass fibre reinforced gypsum sheet.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 25 words
A fire resistant door or door leaf structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer panel means are high density compressed timber fibre board.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
A fire resistant door or door leaf structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein the insulating material is in the form of mineral fibre batts.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 46 words
A fire resistant door or door leaf structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein the central and outer panel means are attached to said sub-frame members by self tapping screws, and the panel means and the insulating material are bonded to each other by an adhesive.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 29 words
A fire resistant door or door leaf structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein both faces of said structure are completed by panels of sheet steel or wood veneer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 28 words
A fire resistant door or door leaf structure as claimed in claim 6, wherein the sheet steel or wood veneer panels are bonded to said outer panel means.
Claim 9
