Description

The invention relates to a fastening system, an arrangement of a fastening system and at least two elements to be fastened, and an arrangement of a fastening system, at least one element to be fastened in a detachable manner and a supporting structure.EP 3 306 007 B1 discloses a fastening system for mounting surface elements on a wall, in which the surface elements are suspended in keyhole-shaped openings which are fixed on the supporting structure.The invention is based on the object of creating a fastening system of the generic type which can be used in various ways. A further object of the invention is to specify an arrangement with a fastening system that can be used in various ways.This object is achieved with respect to the fastening system by a fastening system having the features of claim 1. With regard to the arrangement, the object is achieved by an arrangement having the features of claim 14. The object is also achieved with respect to the arrangement by an arrangement having the features of claim 15.It has been found that-depending on the design of the elements to be fastened and depending on the application-comparatively large forces can act on the element to be fastened in different directions. This can be the case, for example, when the supporting structure is the wall of a tunnel and the element to be fastened is a cladding element of the tunnel wall, for example a surface element with fire protection properties. If the tunnel is provided for the passage of vehicles such as motor vehicles, trucks, trains or the like, high forces can be generated on the surface element. Depending on the case of use, forces can act on the surface element, which do not necessarily have to be aligned in the direction of action of gravity. For example, when used in a tunnel, wind forces can act on the elements to be fastened, which are not aligned in the direction of action of the force of gravity. The forces can be, for example, wind pressure forces and wind wake forces acting in different directions, in particular dynamic wind pressure forces or other forces. The forces acting on the element to be fastened are absorbed in particular by the fastening system.In order to achieve a secure fastening of the element to be fastened to the supporting structure, it is provided that the fastening system has at least one securing part which is adjustable between an assembly position and a securing position. In the mounting position, the suspension element can be removed from the retaining opening. In the securing position, the suspension element is secured by a securing element of the securing part in at least one direction against removal from the retaining opening.The mounting position of the securing part is provided in particular for mounting the element to be fastened on the supporting structure or for dismantling it from the supporting structure. Because the suspension element is secured in the securing position against removal from the retaining opening, it is possible to prevent the surface element from becoming detached from the supporting structure even in the case of large forces acting on the surface element.The direction in which the suspension element is secured against removal from the retaining opening is in particular a horizontal direction and / or a vertical direction. The direction against which the suspension element is secured against removal from the retaining opening corresponds in particular to a movement of the element to be fastened upward with respect to the supporting structure.The element to be fastened can be, for example, a cladding element or the like and the supporting structure can be a wall of a tunnel. It can be provided that the supporting structure is the wall of a building or of another structure. The element to be fastened can be, for example, a cladding arranged on the inside or on the outside, for example also a facade panel or other facade cladding. The element to be fastened can be a light facade panel, for example.In particular, the holding part and the securing part secure the suspension element in the securing position of the securing part in all spatial directions against removal from the holding opening. The holding part and the securing part close in particular the receiving opening.In particular, the fastening system has a plurality of retaining openings, a plurality of associated suspension elements and a plurality of associated securing elements. This makes it possible to achieve secure fixing of even large surface elements in a simple manner.In particular, at least two suspension elements, in particular a plurality of suspension elements, are formed on a common suspension part. As a result, the distance of the suspension elements from one another is predefined structurally. It is easily possible to mount the suspension elements at a correct distance from one another. In a simple design, the suspension part is designed as a rail. However, another configuration of the suspension part can also be advantageous.In particular, at least two holding openings, in particular a plurality of holding openings, are formed on a common holding part. Because at least two holding openings, in particular a plurality of holding openings, are formed on a common holding part, the distance of the holding openings from one another is predefined structurally via the holding part. The mounting of the holding openings at the correct distance from one another is thus possible in a simple manner. In particular, the holding part is designed as a rail. However, another configuration of the holding part may also be advantageous.In particular, at least two securing elements, in particular a plurality of securing elements, are formed on a common securing part. Because at least two, in particular a plurality of, securing elements are formed on a common securing part, the corresponding number of retaining openings can be closed together and the associated suspension elements can be secured in the retaining openings. Due to the arrangement on a common securing element, the distance of the securing elements from one another is predefined structurally and it is ensured that all the suspension elements are secured by the securing elements. A simple configuration results if the securing part is designed as a strip.In order to enable the attachment of a plurality of attachment elements and the closing of a plurality of holding openings simultaneously in a simple manner, it is provided in particular that at least two attachment elements are formed on a common attachment part, at least two holding elements on a common holding part and at least two securing elements on a common securing part.In particular, the suspension part, the securing part and / or the holding part consist at least partially, in particular completely, of metal, in particular of stainless metal. The suspension part, the securing part and / or the holding part are made in particular partially, in particular completely, of steel. It can be provided that the suspension part, securing part and / or holding part are coated with corrosion protection. In particular, the suspension part, the securing part and / or the holding part are made of sheet metal.In particular, the securing part is designed to be moved along the holding part between the mounting position and the securing position. In particular, the securing part is a strip which is guided on a suspension element designed as a rail and is held displaceably in the longitudinal direction of the suspension element.In particular, the suspension element has a suspension slot which engages over the holding part in the fastened state of the fastening system. This makes it possible in a simple manner to secure the suspension element in the transverse direction to the suspension direction. The suspension slot in particular ensures securing of the suspension element in the horizontal direction parallel to the supporting structure.In particular, the suspension element is configured for arrangement in the retaining opening by a first movement in a direction perpendicular to the supporting structure and a subsequent movement in a direction parallel to the supporting structure, in particular in a movement perpendicularly downwards. In particular, the holding part and / or the suspension element have insertion slopes and / or rounded portions in order to simplify the arrangement of the suspension element in the holding opening and to prevent the holding part and the suspension part from getting caught during the suspension process. The lead-in slopes allow guided interlocking of the suspension elements into the retaining openings, in particular along the retaining part. The lead-in slopes have in particular an angle of 2° to 45°, in particular of 5° to 25°, with respect to the associated direction of movement.In particular, the suspension element has a fixing section which holds the securing part in the securing position in a direction which runs transversely to a movement direction of the securing part in which the securing part moves from the mounting position to the securing position. However, an embodiment without a fixing section may also be advantageous.In particular, the fixing portion is formed in a beveled manner and forms an insertion bevel for the securing part when the securing part is displaced from the mounting position into the securing position. As a result, a correct position of the securing part in the securing position can be achieved in a simple manner. The insertion bevel can be formed integrally on the fixing section of the suspension element without additional components. The angle which the insertion bevel encloses with the longitudinal direction of the suspension part or in particular with the movement direction of the securing part into the securing position is in particular 2° to 45°, in particular 5° to 25°.In particular, the fastening system, in particular the suspension part of the fastening system, has a supporting structure. The support structure is designed to support the element to be fastened in the direction of the support structure. In particular, the support structure is at a slight distance from the support structure in the direction perpendicular to the support structure in the unloaded state, i.e. when no forces act on the element to be fastened in addition to the weight force. The distance can be in the range of a few millimeters, for example, and is in particular less than 5 mm, in particular less than 2 mm.In particular, the supporting structure is formed on a longitudinal edge of the suspension part. This makes it possible to achieve stable support in a simple manner with little material outlay. The longitudinal edge of the suspension part is in particular an end face of a metal sheet which is bent as a rail and which forms the suspension part.In particular, the suspension part, the securing part and the holding part are designed as bent sheet metal parts. In particular, the suspension part, the securing part and the holding part are each formed in one piece per se.For an arrangement comprising a fastening system and at least two elements to be fastened, it is provided that at least one securing part is provided for each element of the arrangement to be fastened. It can be provided that an element to be fastened has a plurality of suspension parts. In order to reliably prevent detachment of the element to be fastened from the supporting structure, it may be sufficient to provide only one securing part for each element to be fastened of the arrangement. The arrangement can accordingly also have holding parts and suspension parts interacting with them without associated securing elements. Securing elements for only some or only one suspension element may also be sufficient to effect a sufficient securing of an element to be fastened.For an arrangement of a fastening system, at least one element to be fastened in a detachable manner and a supporting structure, it is provided that one of the parts of the holding part and the suspension part is fixed to the element to be fastened and that the other of the parts of the holding part and the suspension part is fixed to the supporting structure. In the securing position of the securing part, the securing element secures the suspension element at least in a direction which corresponds to a movement of the element to be fastened upward. In the downward direction, the suspension element lies in particular on the holding part and is secured by the holding part.In particular, the suspension of the element to be detachably fastened to the supporting structure takes place by a movement of the element to be detachably fastened perpendicular to the supporting structure and a movement of the element to be detachably fastened parallel to the supporting structure, in particular at least partially downward, preferably approximately vertically downward.For a method for fastening an element to be detachably fastened to a supporting structure via a fastening system, wherein the fastening system has at least one holding part with at least one holding opening and at least one suspension part with at least one suspension element, wherein the fastening system has at least one securing part which is adjustable between an assembly position and a securing position, wherein the suspension element can be removed from the holding opening in the assembly position and wherein the suspension element is secured in the securing position by a securing element of the securing part in at least one direction against removal from the holding opening, it is provided in particular that at least one suspension element is arranged in the at least one holding opening of the holding part and that in a later method step the securing part is moved from the assembly position into the securing position.In particular, the securing part is secured in the securing position after the movement of the securing part into the securing position.The securing of the securing part in the securing position can be effected, for example, by means of a bolt or the like which fixes the securing part with respect to the holding part.Exemplary embodiments of the invention are explained below with reference to the drawings.
