Abstract
Accessory (20) for modular elements (10) for the support and ventilation of crawl spaces, floor structures, floors or similar articles in the building field, each comprising an upper horizontal wall (11) and a plurality of vertical supporting legs (13) defining a continuous passage below said upper wall (11), said accessory (20) comprising a front wall (21) and a lateral wall (22) having a profile mating with that of the aperture defined by each pair of vertical legs (13) of a modular element (10).
Claims13
1- Accessory for modular elements (10) for the support and ventilation of crawl spaces, floor structures, floors or similar articles in the building field, each comprising an upper horizontal wall (11) and a plurality of vertical supporting legs (13) defining a continuous passage below said upper wall (11), said accessory being characterized in that it comprises a front wall (21) and a lateral wall (22) having a profile mating with that of the aperture defined by each pair of vertical legs (13) of a modular element (10).
2- Accessory as in claim 1, characterized in that said front wall (21) is substantially vertical.
3- Accessory as in claim 1, characterized in that said front wall (21) is inclined by about 5°-15° with respect to a vertical plane.
4- Accessory as in claim 1, characterized in that said lateral wall (22) is smooth.
5- Accessory as in claim 1, characterized in that said lateral wall (22) has an undulating development so as to form a plurality of peaks (23) and valleys (24) lying on substantially vertical planes.
6- Accessory as in claim 1, wherein said modular element (10) comprises an arch (15) between each pair of said legs (13), characterized in that said lateral wall (22) is curved.
7- Accessory as in claims 5 and 6, wherein each arch (15) is provided with a groove (16), characterized in that each of said valleys (24) has a profile mating with that of said groove (16) to accommodate it inside.
8- Accessory as in claims 5, 6 or 7, characterized in that the pitch (p) between said curved valleys (24) is substantially constant and is a fraction of the unitary width of said modular element (10).
9- Accessory as in claim 1, characterized in that the height of said lateral wall (22) is such that it can be inserted easily into every one of the apertures defined by said vertical legs (13) of the modular element (10), even if said apertures are of different heights from each other.
10- Accessory as in claim 1, characterized in that its length is substantially equal to about half the length (1) of said modular element (10).
11- Accessory as in claim 1, wherein said modular element (10) comprises a vertical column (18) arranged in a central position below said upper wall (11), characterized in that said lateral wall (22), in an inner position, opposite said front wall (21), is provided with a central hollow (25) able to house a part of said column (18).
12- Accessory as in claim 1, characterized in that on the inner edge of said lateral wall (22), opposite said front wall (21), there are on one side first attachment elements (26) and on the other side corresponding second attachment elements (27), said first attachment elements (26) of one accessory (20) being able to attach themselves with the corresponding second attachment elements (27) of another accessory (20) in order to define a single extension element for said modular elements (10).
13- Accessory as in claim 1, characterized in that at least a part of said front wall (21) is able to be removed or holed, to define a front aperture (28) and thus achieve a continuous passage below said lateral wall (22).
