Description

AREA OF INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to a mounting system for thermally separated mounting of an attachment on a wall provided with insulating material, in particular on a wall provided with a thermal insulation composite system, according to the preamble of claim 1.

[0002] Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for mounting an attachment on a wall provided with insulating material, in particular on a wall provided with a thermal insulation composite system, using a mounting system according to the invention. STATE OF THE ART

[0003] Thermal insulation of building walls significantly contributes to the reduction of heating energy. This involves covering a wall with insulating material, which can be, for example, insulation boards made of synthetic inorganic material such as calcium silicate, or insulation boards made of synthetic organic material such as expanded polystyrene rigid foam. Such insulation boards can be part of an external thermal insulation composite system (ETICS) used for insulating building exterior walls (see [reference]). https: / / de.wikipedia.org / wiki / Wärmedämmverbundsystem.

[0004] The term "wall" here and in the following refers only to those building components or component sections that have a stable structure, in particular sufficient stability for the anchoring of anchor elements, and which may be constructed, for example, of concrete, aerated concrete or masonry (e.g., of hollow or solid bricks).

[0005] Problems arise when, in particular, heavy components such as brackets for awnings, air conditioners, heat pumps or satellite systems have to be mounted on a wall covered with insulation material.

[0006] Firstly, the fastening must be carried out in such a way that no thermal bridge is formed from the outside through the insulation material to the wall. While solutions using anchor elements that incorporate thermally insulating thermal bridge separation modules are known in the prior art, these solutions are relatively expensive, and the thermal bridge separation modules tend to have unfavorable, outwardly widening geometries. This can lead to such large openings in the insulation material on the outside that they cannot be covered by the attached component, which is at least aesthetically disadvantageous.

[0007] On the other hand, the insulation material does not have high mechanical stability and can give way under the pressure of the attachment, which - in addition to the poor appearance - can again have a detrimental effect on the stability of the attachment of the component.

[0008] From FR 3095663 A1, a device for the thermally separated attachment of a load, in particular a sun visor, to a wall provided with an insulating layer is known. The device comprises a first threaded rod for anchoring in the wall, a second threaded rod for attaching the load, and a tube made of an insulating material. The tube can be supported at one end against the wall, and the load can be supported at the opposite end of the tube. The threaded rods are fastened inside the tube with rings, for example, by an adhesive bond. The tube can also be filled internally with a thermally insulating material, for example, injected polyurethane foam.

[0009] From EP 3336271 A1, a device for the thermally separated fastening of a fastener to a wall provided with an insulating layer is known. The device has a first bolt for anchoring in the wall and a second bolt for fastening the fastener. Furthermore, a (thermally insulating) plastic part of a spacer device is provided, through which the bolts are connected to each other. The spacer device also includes a metal spacer sleeve that partially surrounds the plastic part and is indirectly supported on the wall via a flange plate. The fastener is indirectly supported on the spacer sleeve via the plastic part.

[0010] From DE 19636447 C1, a mounting part for attaching a component to a wall with an insulating layer is known. The mounting part comprises a thermal insulation body made of polyurethane foam, in which a substantially star-shaped metal stiffening element is embedded. The mounting part rests against the wall at one end facing the wall. The component is attached to the component-side end of the mounting part via an interposed cover. The stiffening element has several through-holes, with a centrally located through-hole serving to attach the mounting part to the wall by means of a first screw. The stiffening element—and not the thermal insulation body—also forms second through-holes on arms of the stiffening element, which serve to accommodate second screws for attaching the component.From KR 101760690 B1, a device for attaching a facade cladding panel to a wall provided with a thermal insulation layer is known. The device comprises an angle bracket which, with the panel interposed, is attached to a first unit, which in turn includes a bolt for anchoring in the wall. Viewed in the direction of gravity, a second unit is provided below the bolt, serving as a support. This second unit is located solely within the thermal insulation layer and is designed as a hollow cylinder. To prevent damage to the wall, a stop may be provided between the second unit and the wall. TASK OF INVENTION

[0011] It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a mounting system and a method for mounting an attachment to a wall provided with insulation material, which avoid the aforementioned disadvantages. In particular, a thermally insulated and mechanically stable fastening of the attachment to the wall provided with insulation material should be achieved. PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] To solve the aforementioned problem, in a mounting system for the thermally separated mounting of an attachment to a wall provided with insulation material, in particular to a wall provided with an external thermal insulation composite system, the mounting system comprises at least one anchor element with an anchor section for anchoring in the wall and a connecting section adjoining it, the anchor element further comprising a thermally insulating thermal bridge separation module for at least partial arrangement in the insulation material, wherein the thermal bridge separation module is connected to the connecting section and has a receptacle for a, preferably screw-in, fastening means for screwing the attachment in place, the mounting system further comprising at least one thermally insulating support component for arrangement between the wall and the attachment.To enable direct or indirect support of a first end region of the support component on the wall and direct or indirect support of the attachment component on a second end region of the support component opposite the first end region, the invention provides that the support component has an inner thermal insulation element made of a plastic and a reinforcing element that partially surrounds the inner thermal insulation element, wherein two opposing end regions of the inner thermal insulation element form at least the first end region and the second end region of the support component, and wherein at least one of the end regions, preferably both end regions, of the inner thermal insulation element is / are free of the reinforcing element.

[0013] The anchor section of each anchor element can be formed, for example, by at least one section of an anchor rod, a screw, or a threaded rod. A dowel can be inserted into the wall, if necessary, so that the respective anchor section can be screwed into it.

[0014] The connecting section can also be formed by a section of anchor rod, screw, or threaded rod. A section adjoining this section can form the respective anchor section; that is, the anchor rod, screw, or threaded rod in this case encompasses or forms both the anchor section and the connecting section.

[0015] The connecting section is generally located within the insulation material. This means that the connecting section is not located within the wall itself, as only the anchor section is located within the wall and the connecting section is connected to the anchor section. The connecting section can be located at least partially, and in particular entirely, within the thermal break module.

[0016] As mentioned, thermal break modules are known from the prior art and are typically made of a plastic with poor thermal conductivity. The thermal break module primarily provides thermal separation or insulation of the connection section from the fastener used to attach the component. The thermal break module can be connected to the connection section, for example, by screwing and / or bonding.

[0017] Depending on the dimensions of the thermal bridge separation module and the insulation material, the thermal bridge separation module can be located entirely within the insulation material or protrude from it to the outside to a certain degree.

[0018] The receptacle for the fastener used to attach the component can vary depending on the fastener itself. For example, the receptacle may have an internal thread into which the fastener can be screwed. In this case, the fastener could be, for instance, a screw or a threaded rod with a nut. In the case of a screw, the component is tightened using the screw. In the case of a threaded rod, the component is tightened using the nut.

[0019] However, it is also conceivable that a threaded rod plus nut is provided as a fastening means, but the receptacle does not have an internal thread and the threaded rod is glued into the receptacle using adhesive.

[0020] Of course, bonding is also possible if there is an internal thread in the mount.

[0021] For mechanical stabilization, at least one thermally insulating support element is provided, which is positioned between the wall and the attachment. Since the attachment is supported directly or indirectly at the second end of the support element, and the support element is supported directly or indirectly at the wall with its first end, the support element acts as an abutment for the attachment.

[0022] With direct support, there is direct contact between the first / second end section and the wall / attachment. Preferably, the support component is contacted directly by the attachment during its installation.

[0023] In the case of indirect support, one or more elements can be positioned between the first / second end section and the wall / attachment. For example, a washer or other spacer can be placed between the attachment and the supporting structure. In practice, the presence of an intervening layer of "contamination," such as a piece of interior plaster, adhesive, or insulation material, between the first / second end section and the wall / attachment is also typically unavoidable.

[0024] As the term "supporting component" already implies, the supporting component itself is not designed to be tensile-resistant, especially bolted, to the attached component. Instead, the supporting component serves exclusively to support or absorb compressive forces exerted on it by the attached component.

[0025] For thermal insulation of the support component, it can be made, at least in sections, of a thermally poorly conductive, pressure-resistant material, in particular a thermally poorly conductive, pressure-resistant plastic. Thus, by means of the mounting system, at least one support component can be used to achieve a thermally insulated and mechanically stable attachment of the attachment to the wall insulated with material.

[0026] Naturally, multiple anchor elements and / or support components can be provided.

[0027] To ensure sufficient thermal insulation of the support component, in a preferred embodiment of the mounting system according to the invention, the support component has a thermal conductivity of at most 0.39 W / (m K), preferably at most 0.1 W / (m K), from the first end region to the second end region.

[0028] This thermal conductivity, also known as thermal conductivity or thermal conductivity coefficient, can be achieved through suitable material selection and / or material arrangement.

[0029] Thermal conductivity is generally a tensorial quantity. "From the first to the second end region" defines the direction, making it unnecessary to specify thermal conductivity values ​​in other directions, or allowing for different values. Furthermore, "from the first to the second end region" clearly indicates that the thermal conductivity of the entire supporting structure, or along its entire length from the first to the second end region, is being considered. It is possible, however, that the supporting structure, particularly between the two end regions, may contain sections with higher thermal conductivity.

[0030] In particular, the support component can have a reinforcing element for mechanical reinforcement, which in itself may also have a lower thermal conductivity. Accordingly, in the assembly system according to the invention, the support component has an inner thermal insulating element made of a plastic and a reinforcing element that partially surrounds the inner thermal insulating element, wherein two opposing end regions of the inner thermal insulating element form at least the first end region and the second end region of the support component, and wherein at least one of the end regions, preferably both end regions, of the inner thermal insulating element is / are free of the reinforcing element.

[0031] This means that the inner thermal insulation element forms a thermally separating or insulating core and can therefore ensure sufficient thermal insulation of the supporting component as well as, if applicable, the aforementioned thermal conductivity.

[0032] By ensuring that at least one of the end areas of the inner thermal insulation element is free from the reinforcing element, it is guaranteed that no thermal bridge can exist via the reinforcing element.

[0033] At the same time, the inner thermal insulation element does not need to be particularly mechanically stable, since the reinforcing element surrounds the inner thermal insulation element section by section, thus still guaranteeing sufficient mechanical stability of the supporting component as a whole. "Section by section" can mean not only that at least one of the end regions of the inner thermal insulation element is free of the reinforcing element, but it is also conceivable that the reinforcing element has a grid-like or net-like appearance.

[0034] Nevertheless, in addition to its thermal insulation properties, the inner thermal insulating element can also be designed to be mechanically very stable, particularly through the appropriate choice of material. For example, it is conceivable that the inner thermal insulating element is made of a pressure-resistant plastic, in particular a thermoplastic or thermoset. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the assembly system according to the invention, to ensure optimal mechanical stability, the inner thermal insulating element is made of a fiber-reinforced plastic, in particular a glass fiber-reinforced or carbon fiber-reinforced plastic.

[0035] To simplify manufacturing by allowing the reinforcing element to partially surround the inner thermal insulation element, a preferred embodiment of the assembly system according to the invention provides that the reinforcing element is essentially tubular or sleeve-shaped. Accordingly, the reinforcing element can be slid over the inner thermal insulation element during the manufacture of the support component.

[0036] "Essentially tubular or sleeve-shaped" is to be understood, as stated above, as meaning that the reinforcing element may also have lateral holes and / or recesses and / or slots, which in extreme cases may result in a net-like appearance.

[0037] To ensure sufficient mechanical stability of the reinforcement element - and thus of the support component as a whole - in a particularly preferred embodiment of the assembly system according to the invention, the reinforcement element is made of an aluminum alloy or stainless steel or of a carbon fiber reinforced plastic.

[0038] In a particularly preferred embodiment of the mounting system according to the invention, the support component has a length along a longitudinal axis, and each of the two end regions of the inner thermal insulation element extends along the longitudinal axis over a maximum of 10%, preferably a maximum of 5%, of the length. This ensures that the at least one end region of the inner thermal insulation element, which is free of the reinforcing element, is not excessively long with regard to mechanical stability. In other words, by limiting the length of the end regions of the inner thermal insulation element, sufficient mechanical stability is guaranteed even if not just one, but both end regions are free of the reinforcing element, and in particular, the risk of buckling in the respective end region under load is minimized or sufficiently low.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment of the mounting system according to the invention, the thermal break module is made of a plastic, in particular a glass fiber or carbon fiber reinforced plastic. This improves the mechanical stability of the respective thermal break module and thus of the respective anchor element.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment of the mounting system according to the invention, the thermal break module has a substantially cylindrical outer shape. Here and in the following, "cylinder" is understood to mean essentially a rotary cylinder, unless otherwise specified. The "outer" shape of the thermal break module is understood to be the shape that results from viewing the thermal break module as such from the outside.

[0041] Compared to prior art solutions that have a conical cross-section or one that widens away from the anchor section or the wall, the recesses required for the thermal break modules can be produced particularly easily by means of drilling. Furthermore, the recesses / bores can be made with a comparatively smaller diameter, and thus these recesses / bores, as well as the anchor elements or thermal break modules arranged within them, can be easily covered by the respective attachment.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment of the mounting system according to the invention, the at least one support component is arranged behind the at least one anchor element in an assembly state of the mounting system, viewed in the direction of gravity. This arrangement results in particularly good and effective support of the load generated by the attachment due to gravity.

[0043] To enable the mounting of particularly heavy attachments that generate exceptionally high loads, a particularly preferred embodiment of the mounting system according to the invention provides for several anchor elements, wherein, in the assembled state, at least two anchor elements are arranged one behind the other in the direction of gravity, and wherein the at least one support element is arranged between or after two of these anchor elements. The arrangement of the at least one support element between two of these anchor elements allows for a relatively compact arrangement. Furthermore, by arranging the at least one support element after two of these anchor elements, even extreme loads can be accommodated.

[0044] Analogous to the above, the invention provides an arrangement comprising a mounting system according to the invention, a wall provided with insulating material, and an attachment which is mounted to the wall by means of the mounting system, wherein the first end region of the respective support component is directly or indirectly supported by the wall, and wherein the attachment component is directly or indirectly supported by the second end region of the respective support component. That is, the attachment component is thermally separated and mounted to the wall by means of the mounting system according to the invention, with the support component providing counter-pressure when the screws of the attachment component are tightened.

[0045] Analogous to the above, the invention further provides a method for mounting an attachment on a wall provided with insulating material, in particular on a wall provided with a thermal insulation composite system, using a mounting system according to the invention, wherein the method comprises the following steps: Anchoring of the respective anchor section of the at least one anchor element in the wall and at least sectional arrangement of the respective connecting section and the respective thermal break module in the insulation material; at least sectional arrangement of the at least one support component in the insulation material such that the first end region of the respective support component points towards the wall and the second end region points away from the wall; fastening of the attachment component by screwing it to the respective thermal break module by means of a

[0046] Fastening means such that the first end area of ​​the respective supporting component is supported directly or indirectly on the wall and that the attached component is supported directly or indirectly on the second end area of ​​the respective supporting component.

[0047] This means it is conceivable that part of the respective anchor element and / or the supporting component protrudes outwards from the insulation material.

[0048] The phrase "fastening the attachment by screwing it to the respective thermal break module using a fastener" indicates that the attachment is screwed in place during installation. As explained in detail above, the fastener itself does not necessarily have to be screwed to the thermal break module or its mounting. For example, a threaded rod could be placed in the mounting and bonded to the thermal break module. The attachment is then secured using a nut screwed onto the threaded rod.

[0049] For optimal support of heavy attachments or heavy loads, a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention provides that the arrangement of the at least one support component, viewed in the direction of gravity, is located behind the at least one anchor element. In this configuration, the mounting system is in an assembled state.

[0050] For optimal support of particularly heavy attachments or loads, a particularly preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention provides for several anchor elements, wherein at least two anchor elements are arranged one behind the other in the direction of gravity, and wherein the at least one support element is arranged between or after two of these anchor elements. The mounting system is again in its assembled state. As already explained above, the arrangement of the at least one support element between two of these anchor elements allows for a relatively compact arrangement. Furthermore, by arranging the at least one support element after two of these anchor elements, even extreme loads can be accommodated. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

[0051] The invention will now be explained in more detail using exemplary embodiments. The drawings are exemplary and are intended to illustrate the inventive concept, but in no way to restrict or even exhaustively represent it. This shows:

[0052] Fig. 1 a schematic front view of a wall provided with insulation material, to which an attachment with a first embodiment of a mounting system is mounted. Fig. 2 a schematic sectional view according to section line II-II. Fig. 1 , where the arrows indicate the viewing direction. Fig. 3: a schematic front view of the wall provided with insulation material, on which the attachment is mounted with a second embodiment of the mounting system. Fig. 4: a schematic sectional view along section line IV-IV. Fig. 3 , where the arrows indicate the viewing direction Fig. 5 a schematic sectional view of a support component of an assembly system according to the invention WAYS TO IMPLEMENT THE INVENTION

[0053] In the schematic front view of the Fig. 1 is an attachment 10, which may be, for example, a bracket for an awning, on a wall 2 provided with insulating material 3 (see Fig. 2 ) with a first embodiment of a mounting system 1, thermally separated from the wall 2. The attachment 10 is screwed to it with nuts 9, which are arranged one behind the other, i.e., one behind the other in the direction of gravity 16. The attachment 10 is supported by a support component 12 of the mounting system 1, the support component 12 being in Fig. 1 The support component 12 is concealed by the attachment 10 and is therefore not directly visible, but only indicated. The support component 12 is arranged between the two nuts 9, with the nuts 9 and the support component 12 being arranged on a straight line parallel to the direction of gravity 16 or on the vertical section line II-II.

[0054] In the schematic representation of the Fig. 2 , which make a perpendicular cut according to the section line II-II from Fig. 1 As shown, the mounting system 1 with two anchor elements 4 and the support component 12 is clearly visible. The arrangement is such that the support component 12, viewed in the direction of gravity 16, is located behind the first of the anchor elements 4 or between the anchor elements 4, and that the anchor elements 4 and the support component 12 are arranged essentially parallel to each other. Each anchor element 4 has an anchor section 5, which is anchored in the wall 2. The anchor section 5 is formed by a section of a threaded rod 8, the threaded rod 8 also forming a connecting section 6 of the anchor element 4 adjoining the anchor section 5.

[0055] The connecting section 6 is connected to a thermal break module 7 of the respective anchor element 4, with the threaded rod 8 being screwed into the thermal break module 7. The thermal break module 7 is designed for at least partial installation in the insulation material 3, or the thermal break module 7 and the connecting section 6 are connected in Fig. 2 arranged in insulation material 3.

[0056] The thermal break module 7 has a receptacle 11 for a threaded rod 8', which in the illustrated first embodiment is screwed into the receptacle 11. The receptacle 11 has an internal thread (not shown) for this purpose. The nuts 9 interact with the threaded rods 8', with each nut 9 and threaded rod 8' forming a fastening element for screwing the attachment 10 into place.

[0057] The support element 12 has a first end section 18, which directly supports the wall 2. Opposite the first end section 18, the support element 12 has a second end section 19, which points away from the wall 2 and against which the attachment element 10 directly supports itself. The support element 12 thus forms a support for the bolted attachment element 10. Because the support element 12 is thermally insulated, it is ensured that no thermal bridge is formed between the wall 2 and the attachment element 10, and thus the attachment element 10 is thermally separated from the wall 2.

[0058] Specifically, in the first embodiment shown, the supporting component 12 has a thermal conductivity λ of approximately 0.35 W / (m K) from the first end region 18 to the second end region 19.

[0059] Both the support component 12 and the thermal bridge separation modules 7 have a cylindrical shape when viewed from the outside. This allows recesses in the insulation material 3 for the thermal bridge separation modules 7 and the support component 12 to be easily created by means of drilling.

[0060] In the first embodiment shown, the thermal bridge separation modules 7 are made of a glass fiber or carbon fiber reinforced plastic in order to ensure good thermal insulation on the one hand and sufficient mechanical stability on the other.

[0061] The supporting component 12, in turn, is made of a fiber-reinforced plastic in the first embodiment shown, in order to ensure good thermal insulation on the one hand and high mechanical stability on the other.

[0062] To produce the in Fig. 2In the arrangement shown, comprising the mounting system 1, the wall 2 provided with the insulating material 3, and the attachment 10, which is mounted on the wall 2 with the mounting system 1, a procedure is carried out which includes the following steps: Anchoring of the respective anchor section 5 of the two anchor elements 4 in the wall 2 and at least sectionally arranging the respective connecting section 6 and the respective thermal break module 7 in the insulation material 3; at least sectionally arranging the support component 12 in the insulation material 3 such that the first end region 18 of the support component 12 points towards the wall 2 and the second end region 19 points away from the wall 2; fastening of the attachment component 10 by screwing it to the thermal break modules 7 of the anchor elements 4, each by means of a threaded rod 8' and nut 9, such that the first end region 18 of the support component 12 is directly supported against the wall 2 and that the attachment component 10 is directly supported against the second end region 19 of the support component 12.

[0063] The two anchor elements 4 are arranged one behind the other in the direction of gravity 16, and the support component 12 is arranged between the two anchor elements 4.

[0064] The same principles apply to the second embodiment as described above for the first embodiment, unless otherwise stated, which is why repetition is largely omitted. The in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 The second embodiment shown differs from the one in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 The difference between the first embodiment shown is essentially that instead of one support component 12, two support components 12 are provided, their arrangement differing accordingly from that of the first embodiment.

[0065] Even in the front view of the Fig. 3 The indication of the support components 12 shows that both support components 12, viewed in the direction of gravity 16, are arranged between the nuts 9 and the anchor elements 4, respectively. The support components 12 are in Fig. 3 The nuts 9 are arranged to the left and right of an imaginary connecting line. Both support components 12 rest on the surface in Fig. 3drawn horizontal section line IV-IV.

[0066] The corresponding sectional view is in Fig. 4 shown, in which only one (namely the lower one) of the two superimposed anchor elements 4 is indicated.

[0067] Fig. 5 Figure 1 shows a sectional view of the support component 12 of an embodiment of a mounting system 1 according to the invention, wherein one or more such support components 12 and one or more anchor elements 4 are provided and can be arranged arbitrarily. In particular, the support components 12 of the first embodiment ( Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 ) and the second embodiment ( Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 ) basically, of course, also as in Fig. 5 must be executed.

[0068] In this case, the support component 12 has an inner thermal insulation element 13, which in the illustrated embodiment is made of a carbon fiber reinforced plastic to ensure sufficient thermal insulation and mechanical stability. For mechanical reinforcement, the support component 12 further has a reinforcing element 14, which in the illustrated embodiment is essentially tubular or sleeve-shaped and partially surrounds the inner thermal insulation element 13. In the illustrated embodiment, two opposing end regions 15, 15' of the inner thermal insulation element 13 are free of the reinforcing element 14 in order to reliably prevent the formation of a thermal bridge between the attachment component 10 and the wall 2.Accordingly, end section 15 projects beyond end section 20 of the reinforcement element 14 along a longitudinal axis 17, and end section 15' projects beyond end section 20' of the reinforcement element 14 opposite end section 20. Thus, end section 15 forms the first end section 18 of the support element 12, and end section 15' forms the second end section 19 of the support element 12.

[0069] In principle, however, variants are also conceivable in which the end region 20 of the reinforcing element 14 is flush with the end region 15 of the inner thermal insulating element 13, so that the first end region 18 of the supporting component 12 is formed by the end regions 15, 20, and only the end region 15' projects beyond the end region 20', with the end region 15' of the inner thermal insulating element 13 forming the second end region 19 of the supporting component 12. Likewise, variants are also conceivable in which the end region 20' of the reinforcing element 14 is flush with the end region 15' of the inner thermal insulating element 13, so that the second end region 19 of the supporting component 12 is formed by the end regions 15', 20', and only the end region 15 protrudes beyond the end region 20, wherein the end region 15 of the inner thermal insulating element 13 forms the first end region 18 of the supporting component 12.

[0070] In the illustrated embodiment, the reinforcing element 14 is made of stainless steel to ensure particularly high mechanical stability.

[0071] In the illustrated embodiment, the support component 12 extends along the longitudinal axis 17 with a length L. The first end region 15 and the second end region 15' each extend along the longitudinal axis 17 over approximately 9.5% of the length L. By limiting the extension of the end regions 15', 15 free of the reinforcing element 14 along the longitudinal axis 17 to a maximum of 10% of the length L, the probability of buckling of the inner thermal insulation element 13 in the end regions 15', 15 under load can be kept sufficiently low.
