Abstract

Claims (43)

1. A cladding system for a wall comprising

a cladding element comprising:

a first fastening section;

a second fastening section; and

a base surface section disposed between the first fastening section and the second fastening section; and

a fastening profile configured to receive the cladding element, the fastening profile comprising:

a first reception section;

a second reception section; and

a fastening surface disposed between the first reception section and the second reception section and configured to be secured to the wall, wherein the first reception section extends at least substantially parallel to the fastening surface and the second reception section extends at an inclined angle between approximately 30 degrees and approximately 60 degrees with respect to the fastening surface;

wherein the first fastening section of the cladding element is configured to be bent in at least two places in relation to the base surface section so as to form a first bent portion and a second bent portion;

wherein the second fastening section of the cladding element is configured to be bent in relation to the base surface section;

wherein the first fastening section of the cladding element is configured to be received by the first reception section of the fastening profile such that one of the first or second bent sections is disposed parallel to the fastening surface of the fastening profile and the second fastening section is configured to be received by a second reception section of a second fastening profile; and

characterized in that the fastening profile is made of aluminum and is realized as an extruded part.

2. A method for mounting a cladding system according to claim 1 on the wall, the method comprising at least the following steps:

anchoring the fastening profile to the wall;

inserting the second fastening section of the cladding element into the second reception section of the fastening profile in a state in which the second fastening section is not deformed to the base surface section of the cladding element;

bending the base surface section to the second fastening section until the cladding element is fixed to the wall by means of another fastening profile which is connected to the first fastening section of the cladding element; and

fixing the other fastening profile to the wall.

3. The cladding system according to claim 1 , characterized in that the first and second reception sections of the fastening profile have reception openings for the first and second fastening sections, the reception openings being disposed on sides of the fastening profile facing one another.

4. The cladding system according to claim 1 , characterized in that

the first reception section on the fastening profile has an extension on the side which faces away from the fastening surface, such that in an installed configuration the base surface section of the cladding element contacts the extension on the side facing the first fastening section.

5. The cladding system according to claim 1 , characterized in that the two reception sections are disposed at opposite edges of the fastening profile in relation to a transverse direction which extends perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the fastening profile.

6. The cladding system according to claim 1 , characterized in that an insertion slot for inserting the cladding elements into the first and second reception sections is realized between the first and second reception sections on the side of the fastening profile which faces away from the fastening surface, the insertion slot being continuous in the longitudinal direction of the fastening profile.

7. The cladding system according to claim 6 , characterized in that at least one fastening screw for anchoring the fastening profile to the wall is positioned in the area of the fastening surface and in alignment with the insertion slot, and in that a partial length of the first fastening section disposed inside the first reception section is larger than the distance between the fastening screw and a lateral wall of the cladding element which faces the fastening screw and which extends perpendicular to the reception section.

8. The cladding system according to claim 6 characterized in that the insertion slot is at least partially covered inside the cross section of the fastening profile by means of a strip-shaped cover profile.

9. The cladding system according to claim 8 , characterized in that the cover profile has an L-shaped cross section and is anchored in a reception slot of the fastening profile.

10. The cladding system according to claim 1 , characterized in that the cladding element is realized as a sandwich component which has a core area and cover layers which are made of aluminum and cover the core area on both sides, and in that grooves are provided at edges and are realized in the area of a cover layer and of the core area.

11. The cladding system according to claim 1 , characterized in that the fastening profile has a section for receiving the first fastening section of the cladding element as a folding aid for the first fastening section.

12. An arrangement of a cladding system according to claim 1 on a wall, characterized in that the second reception section of the fastening profile is disposed above the first reception section in relation to a bottom of the wall.

13. The arrangement according to claim 12 , characterized in that at least three fastening profiles disposed parallel to one another and two cladding elements disposed between the fastening profiles are provided.

14. A cladding system for a wall comprising:

a cladding element comprising:

a first fastening section;

a second fastening section; and

a base surface section disposed between the first fastening section and the second fastening section; and

a fastening profile configured to receive the cladding element, the fastening profile comprising:

a first reception section;

a second reception section; and

a fastening surface disposed between the first reception section and the second reception section and configured to be secured to the wall, wherein the first reception section extends at least substantially parallel to the fastening surface and the second reception section extends at an inclined angle between approximately 30 degrees and approximately 60 degrees with respect to the fastening surface;

wherein the first fastening section of the cladding element is configured to be bent in at least two places in relation to the base surface section so as to form a first bent portion and a second bent portion;

wherein the second fastening section of the cladding element is configured to be bent in relation to the base surface section;

wherein the first fastening section of the cladding element is configured to be received by the first reception section of the fastening profile such that one of the first or second bent sections is disposed parallel to the fastening surface of the fastening profile and the second fastening section is configured to be received by a second reception section of a second fastening profile; and

characterized in that the first reception section on the fastening profile has an extension on the side which faces away from the fastening surface, such that, in an installed configuration, the base surface section of the cladding element contacts the extension on the side facing the first fastening section.
