PRE-FORMED INSERT BODY

摘要

An insert body used in an existing aperture within a building panel, the body defining an aperture with geometry varied relative to the existing aperture, and comprising an inner surface, an outer surface, a front face and a rear face. The inner surface provides an inner side wall of the aperture to be formed, the outer surface provides for an outer side wall of the aperture to be formed and/or of the existing aperture to be varied. The outer side wall in use is located adjacent to the existing aperture side wall. The rear face provides a support surface for location upon the second face of the panel. The inner side wall terminates in at least one rim on the front face. The front face comprises at least one recessed region and each rim having a surface projected from the recessed region as a reference relative to the first face.

主权项

1. A body defining an aperture to be formed in a panel, the body comprising:
an inner surface, an outer surface, a front face, and a rear face, the aperture to be formed being of a varied geometry (such as a reduced size or altered shape) relative to an existing aperture through a panel, wherein the inner surface provides for an inner side wall of the aperture to be formed, the panel having a thickness defined between a first face and a second face, and the panel having an existing aperture side wall as defined by the existing aperture and extending between the first and second faces of the panel, the outer surface comprising an outer side wall of the, or at least a part of the, aperture to be formed and/or of the existing aperture to be varied in geometry, the outer side wall to be, at least in part, located substantially adjacent to the existing aperture side wall, the rear face provides for at least one support surface to be located upon a region of the second face of the panel surrounding the existing aperture, and wherein the inner side wall terminates with at least one rim on the front face, the front face comprising one or more recessed regions and each rim having a rim surface, the rim surface being a surface projected from at least one of the one or more recessed regions so as to provide a reference surface, referenced relative to the first face of the panel.
