Device for securing profiles for concealed suspension lattice work ceilings

Abstract

Abstract A suspended ceiling, made up of a perfect framework of simple sheets, which from the esthetic and useful latticework covering the ceilings; these are long rectangular plastic or metal strips, with transversal semigrooves, spaced at modular dimensions and which enable the crossed assembly of the sheets themselves, thus forming the latticework; this latticework can be more or less dense, according to the distance between the semi-grooves. With this formation of the latticework, in the contour sheets of each covered surface there is a lengthwise series of small holes, through which the suspension hook rods are inserted. These rods are simple cylindrical wires with curved ends, like hooks, and with a bend in their longitudinal half, to ensure better suspension assembly between the latticework and the upper frame or contour support section. The contour sections are structural elements which support the aforementioned latticework sheet framework; these sections are made of laminated or extruded metal, forming a double "T" shape with lower extensions of the central core, the wing edges having some small angular folds like longitudinal edges and both the lower extended core and the wing edges are specially designed to enable quick and simple assembly of the complete structural securing device, as on the lower extended core there is a series of small windows which provide access to and secure the wires or hooks which hold the lower latticework and on the longitudinal edges of the wings the rapid-assembly framework is coupled by a seamings system by means of flat-action side latches by a spring between the cores and the wing edges of the contour sections, thus simple and economically forming the latticework which in turn is hung from the cladding or the ceilings through rod supports, adjustable in height by resilient angular pressure and quick manual action.
