DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SECURING AN INSULATION BOARD WITHIN A CAVITY WALL

摘要

The present invention concerns a device for securing an insulation board within a cavity wall, comprising an inner wall, an outer wall and a cavity in between said inner and outer walls in which insulation boards are accommodated, said device comprising: wall anchor means (5) for securing the inner wall to the outer wall; retaining means (7,7') for fixating an insulation board in the cavity; said retaining means including projections (7) gripping an end portion of the insulation board; wherein the retaining means include a mounting element (6) adapted to be fastened to the inner wall; the anchor means comprises an elongated member (5) with holding means (13), which cooperate with corresponding receiving means (16) on the mounting element for securing the anchor member to the mounting element; and the projections (7) are formed in the mounting element. Hereby, a better insulation quality may be achieved as the insulation boards may be positioned against a smooth inner wall without any wall ties pre-mounted, on which the insulation panels otherwise could be damaged. The insulation mounting procedure becomes much simpler and easier by a device according to the present invention, saving a considerable amount of time and consequently labour costs. IMAGE
