Locking panel veneer system |
摘要 |
The present invention relates to the field of mortarless, stone-like veneer systems for walls. More specifically, the present invention relates to facade systems comprising a plurality of panels with surfaces for engaging other panels in the system and for resisting pullout of a panel once installed. Further provided are facade systems comprising a plurality of panels which provide stacked-stone corners for walls, columns, and posts when installed. Preferred are systems comprising modular facade panels having (i) a front face for forming part of a first facade, wherein the face is formed as a plurality of stacked stones and has a concave rectilinear polygonal outline configured for mating with adjacent panels when installed in a facade system; (ii) a back side with a suspension rail in communication therewith; and (iii) left and right sides for forming part of another facade in an intersecting plane. Such panel systems provide a seamless veneer with a strength nearing that of mortar-based systems but having the ease of installation provided by modular mortarless systems. |

1. A modular facade panel comprising:
a front face for forming part of a first facade, wherein the face is formed as a plurality of stacked stones and wherein an outline of a front planar view of the panel provides a concave rectilinear polygonal outline configured for mating with adjacent panels when installed in a facade system; a back side with a suspension rail in communication therewith; and left and right sides for forming part of another facade in a different plane; wherein the panel is configured such that, when a plurality of panels are disposed as a facade to a concave corner, a front of a first panel is capable of contacting a side of a second panel and a front of the second panel is capable of contacting a side of the first panel; and wherein the suspension rail of the first panel comprises a first horizontal mounting bar and when installed the first horizontal mounting bar overlaps a second horizontal mounting bar of a suspension rail of the second panel and is disposed between the second horizontal mounting bar and the second panel; wherein the suspension rail of the first panel has a configuration that is the same as that of the suspension rail of the second panel. |
