DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
The present invention relates to a bidimensional prefabrication system having finished wall modules.
Particularly, the present invention concerns a prefabrication system which, even industrializing the whole production cycle, allows the maintenance of the maximum compositive-intrinsic and expressive freedom under the architectural point of view.
This system is based on the aggregation of modular wall elements having the structural parts comprised of wood and conceived in such a way to be completely assembled by plugging, finishing and plants before the assembly step in the field; this allows the elimination of the building process in situ and the need for having skilled labor, and at the same time, dramatically reduces manufacturing and mounting times, with all the above resulting in a reduction of costs strictly connected with the use of handicraft labor.
The equippable modular walls guarantee the maintenance of the full freedom of architectural design expression, since it is possible to assemble them by an exhaustive range of standard or non-standard integrable modular components, satisfying all the usual architectural needs in the modern design.
Further, the present invention concerns a multi - equipped bed frame with an adjustable positioning.
More specifically, the invention concerns a frame of the above kind which allows the assembly of a group of standard components prepared according to the design directly with the factory without the need for skilled labor and technical time drastically reduced, resulting in a single assembly (equippable modular wall), structural sub-assembly of the global system, provided with structural parts, pluggings, finishings and plants.
The solution suggested according to the present invention is based upon the principle of the guided fixed joint and tightening by pressing of simple intelligent components, suitably conceived to be connected in a simple, automatic and flexible way.
The present invention also relates to a joint element for an easy composite assembling.
More specifically, the invention relates to a joint element suitable to join more than one structural component, thus simplifying and helping the assembling and tightening steps in the field.
Finally, the present invention relates to a complete equippable modular wall.
More particularly, the invention relates to a wall of the above kind, preferably having a wood support structure, and that can be arranged in any kind of structural aesthetic combination, always relying upon a double track main structure.
As it is well known, the known prefabrication systems can be divided into two main classes: on one side are the global prefabrication systems for creation of standard inhabited modules for use in the construction of civil and industrial buildings, and characterized by a flat and constant qualitative property of the aesthetic, structural and distributive aspect. Many modules are industrially produced in a rigid way such that it is not possible to go out of the severe design and manufacturing schematization and there is also involved very high costs and the need for highly skilled labor for the integration of non-standard components.
On the other side are the systems providing a specialized prefabrication of the single components of single steps of the manufacturing process, like, for example, the prefabrication of the sole structural part, which delegates to the assembling and finishing step on the field the realization of the main part of the building, being thus assimilable to handicraft products insofar as the specialization, costs and realization time are concerned.
It is known that both the global prefabrication and the specialized prefabrication systems are in most cases of very low quality because of the need to reduce the costs of the materials employed, said costs becoming very high for all the non-standard parts of the buildings, and for the mounting and finishing steps on the field.
A further disadvantage of the known prefabrication systems, mainly for the civil buildings, is due to the low flexibili
