Flexible panel with interrupted sheaths for tie rods
First Claim
1. Membrane body (1) comprising at least a first panel (10) and a second panel (11) connected together in an adhesive manner by respective facing faces (12, 13), and a plurality of tie rods (16) arranged stably between the panels (10, 11) according to set pattern;
- each said tie rod (16) having respective end portions (17, 18);
said body further comprising insulation means (15) arranged between the panels and associated with each said tie rod (16) to leave said tie rod (16) longitudinally free between said panels (10, 11);
said tie rod (16) being suitable for resisting a dual tensile membrane stress acting on each of said pair of panels (10, 11), and keeping said panels (10, 11) substantially free of tension during use;
said second panel (11) covering said face (12) of said first panel (10) in such a way that said second panel (11) adheres integrally to said first panel (10) wherein said insulation means (15) comprises a plurality of flexible sheaths (15) arranged between said respective panels (10, 11) along force lines (F), each sheath housing a corresponding tie rod (16) in a longitudinally free manner, wherein said tie rod (16) comprises a plurality of fibres (24) free of a least a set material, that are arranged inside one said sheath (15) in such a way as to be longitudinally freely slideable, and wherein said sheath (15) has an annular section interrupted at a first panel (10) (11) of the two said panels (10, 11).

Abstract
Membrane body (1) comprising at least one pair of panels (10, 11) connected together in an adhesive manner and for each pair of said panels (10, 11), at least one flexible sheath (15) arranged stably according to a set pattern to resist membrane stress acting on the panels (10, 11); each sheath (15) housing a respective tie rod (16), connected to the panels (10, 11) in an end position in a set manner in such a way as to be suitable for resisting normal stress to free the panels (10, 11) from the respective membrane stress, thereby maintaining the group of the panels (10, 11) flexible and maintaining the corresponding production method.
