(57) Device for mounting of facade covering tiles (20) of the type that on their back
side (26) have a downwardly directed supporting ledge (21) and on their front side
(25) have a lap (22) and a downwardly directed tongue (23) and that are adapted to
be arranged the one over the other on a facade of a building (30) with vertically
adjacent tiles (20) overlapping each other at their upper and lower edges on such
a way that the tongue (23) of each upper tile extends into the lap (22) of the downwards
adjacent tile, which device comprises an elongated mounting profile (1) with a substantially
plane waist (2) and a pair of flanges (3), arranged at opposite edges of its long
side, each having an inner flange part (4) that is connected to the waist (2), and
a discontinuous outer flange part (5) that extends from the waist (2) along a supporting
plane (S) for supporting the back sides (26) of the facade covering tiles (20) and
that present uniformly distributed mounting hooks (6) for carrying the facade covering
tiles (20) by their supporting ledges (21). Further, at least one of the outer flange
parts (5) comprises locking flanges (7) for locking the facade covering tiles (20)
in the horizontal direction and prevent them from moving sideways, wherein the locking
flanges (7) extend from the corresponding flange (3) inwards along the supporting
plane (S) towards the centre of the waist and comprises an outwardly bent end part
(8) arranged to bear on an inner side edge (24) of a tile (20), and wherein the waist
(2) and the flanges (3) jointly form a vertical lead channel for leading down any
moisture that enters between the inner side edges (24) of two tiles (20).
