Clip and method for the mounting of panels

摘要

In a system for mounting panels, a plurality of clips (14) is distributed at spaced intervals along an edge of a first panel (12A), respective first planar limbs of the clips (14) are located, parallelly to the panel (12A) between the panel (12A) and a structural support (10) for the panel (12A) and an edge of a second panel is brought up to the clips (14) to support the edge of the second panel (12B) on respective second planar limbs of the clips (14) parallelly to the second panel (12B). The system may also make provision for circumstances in which a first panel is not available.

主权项

1. A clip for use in mounting a panel and comprising a first limb for use in anchoring said clip relative to a support and a second limb against which an edge zone of said panel is to bear, said second limb being readily removable from connection with said first limb, said clip further comprising a web interconnecting said first limb and said second limb and transverse to those two limbs and yet further comprising a third limb extending from said web in the same direction as said first limb and substantially co-planar with said second limb and at that side of said web opposite to said second limb, whereby said first limb and said third limb serve to receive between them an edge of another panel.
