3 Claims. (Cl. 181-33) This invention relates to a louvered ceiling construction. An object of the invention is to provide a louvered vceiling constructionV which presents an unbroken louvered connect the louver units at each side for facilitating the cleaning of the units and for gaining access to the illuminating mounting means and lamps.
Still another object of the invention isto provide panelp ing arranged above the louvered ceiling construction for absorbing and deadening the sound waves passing through the louver units to thereby reduce noise in the room below the louvered construction.
Stillv another object of the invention is to provide an improved louvered ceiling construction composed of parts which may be prefabricated so as to facilitate the erection and installation thereof.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, reference is now made to the following speciiications and accompanying drawings in which the preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated.
-In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a fragmentary position of a louveredrceiling construction embodying the invention.
Fig; 2 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view taken approximately on line 2-2 of Fig. l.
Fig. 3' is a sectional view taken approximately on line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 4 isan enlarged fragmentary sectional view of the louver units supporting construction.
Fig.5 is a fragmentary perspective view of the lower end of one of the side walls of the upright members.
Fig. 6 is an enlarged sectional view taken approximately on-line 6-7-6fofFig. 2. j l
vRef'erring to the drawings, vthe-.louvered ceiling construction provides an unbroken louvered pattern extending throughout the entire area below a ceiling. The louvered construction includes louver units 10 arranged in parallel rows with the louvers in each row being disposed in aligned relation. The units are constructed and arranged so that the same may be prefabricated to facilitate the .installation thereof. Each of the units 10 consists of a plurality of vertically disposed longitudinally extending rows of transversely spaced plates 11 which are interiitted with a plurality of vertically disposed, trans- 2,939,543 `Patented June 7, 1960 plates 11 are formed with longitudinally spaced slots 14,
which open through the lower edges thereof and extend inwardly to approximately the centers of the plates respectively. The transversely extending plates 12 are provided With longitudinally spaced slots 15, which open through the upper edges thereof and extend inwardly to approximately the centers of said plates respectively. The longitudinally and transversely extending plates are interitted to dispose the slots 14 in engagement with the portions of the transverse extending plates below the slots 15 and the slots 15 in the transverse extending plates are in engagement with the portions of the longitudinally extending plates 11 above the slots 14 therein. The plates are secured together at their intersections and thereby connect all the plates together in unit formation.
The louver units 10 are supported below theceiling of a room by means of structural framework 17 so as to provide a space above the units for illuminating means d8. The -said framework includes a plurality of spaced parallel channel members 21 which extend transversely from one side of the room to the other and are suspended in spaced relation from thel ceiling by hanger rods 22 depending from brackets 23 affixed to the ceiling with the lower ends of the hanger rods engaging through apertures in the opposite sides of U-shaped clips 24. The clips engage about the channel members with the protruding ends of the hanger rods engaged by wing nuts 25 for adjusting the elevation of the channel members. Supported by each of the channel members 21 at longitudinally spaced locations are upright members 26. Each of the upright members 26 is formed of a strip of flat sheet metal which is bent to provide an end wall 27 and oppositely disposed side walls 28 having outwardly directed hooked lower ends 29. I'he upright members are arranged in rows on the channel members 21 with the lower hooked ends thereof located above confronting sides of adjacent rows of louver units 10. Supported on the hooked lower ends of each row of the channel members are mating plates 30 and 31, which extend longitudinally between adjacent rows of louver units 10 and against which the ends of the plates 12 of the louver units abut.
The upright members 26 are aixed to the channel shaped members 21 by means of bolts 32 which extend through the end =walls -27 of said upright ymembers and through apertures in opposite sides of U-shaped clips 33 engaging about the channel shaped members. The plates 30 and 31 are for-med with back to backv planar lower portions 34 and with diverging upper portions 35 which are provided with inwardly directed hooked terminals 36. The terminals 36 engage the hooked terminals 29 to thereby support the plates 30 and 31 in depending relation on the upright members 26. The plates 30 and 3'1v are secured together and are provided with vertically disposed slots 37 located in longitudinally spaced relation for receiving the upper ends of latch members 38 connected to the endmost plate 12 of each of the louver units 10 on pivot pins 39 for supporting the rows of louver units between spaced sets of plates 30 Aand 31'; This permits of the swinging of the louver units 10 on the pivot pins 39 at either side of the units into depending relation for gaining access to the illuminating means 18 or to clean the units. The units may also be readily hooked to the supporting plates 30 and 31 or released therefrom.
'Ihe upright members 26, together with the plates 30 and 31, constitute a support for paneling 42, which extends between the side walls 28 of each row thereof, with the lower end of the paneling supported upon the diverging portions 35 of the said plates 30 and 31. The paneling being supported, as aforesaid, by each row of upright members provides longitudinally extending spaces above the rows of louver units with the illuminating means 18 3 extending longitudinally of and medially above the rows respectively. The paneling 42 is made of Fiberglas enclosed in white plastic envelopes 43 and provides acoustical noise batlles, which reduce the noises passing through the louver units. This is effected by the sound waves striking the surface of the paneling or baffles being transmitted by diaphragmatic action of the plastic envelopes to the Fiberglas, whereby most of the energy of the sound waves is absorbed. The plastic envelope permits of the washing or the surfaces of the paneling for removing dust which may accumulate thereon.
The side walls 28 of the upright members 26 have outstruck tongues '45 which are cut from the body thereof and bent outwardly into overlying relation with the hooked terminals 36 to thereby retain the plates 30 and 31 in sup ported relation on the upright members 26,
The illuminating means 18 may be of any preferred type and as illustrated the same consists of fluorescent lamps 46 supported by and depending from housings 47 extending longitudinally of each row of louver units and supported by the channel members 21. This posi tions the lamps 46 in spaced relation above the louver units lo whereby the light rays therefrom are directed downwardly through the cells f13.
It would be understood that the framework supporb ing the louver units 11i) may extend from one side of the room to the other and from one end thereof to the other to support a plurality of rows of louver units `10 which presents an unbroken louver pattern in all directions over the entire ceiling. Furthermore, Kall the parts of the framework and the louvers may be prefabricated and oonveniently assembled and erected.
While the preferred form of invention is shown and described herein, it is understood that the same is not so limited but shall cover and include any and all moditications of the invention which fall within the purview of the claims.
