Connector for attaching a wall or ceiling panel .:. ^; '.... ,; ; ■ "- · .. '■■ -.-

It is known to use a connecting part for fastening a fan or ceiling panel, in particular acoustic panel _r, to support and holding rails for the production of suspended ceilings or wall cladding, consisting of a web part which is slit at one end for fastening the panels in the longitudinal direction several times and at right angles is bent to one side in such a way that the respective adjacent end strips are arranged in. Different parallel planes and that the other end is bent to engage behind the support and holding rail on the same side as the opposite end or on both sides.

This terbinding part has the disadvantage that when loosening of the same, especially in the case of completely laid ceiling or wall coverings, the respective plate attached to it damaged "will" »Damage to the ceiling and wall cladding also occurs when using connection

divide, the end of which for one-sided reaching behind the Support and retaining rail is only bent to one side '. ■ To unhook the connecting part from the retaining rail a thin tool is required between the Joints between two adjacent ceiling or wall panels can be pushed, e.g. a spatula with which the panels can be closed, turned end of the connecting part pressed to the side will. This makes the connecting part so around the axis of the Retaining rail folded so that the angled end of the retaining rail no longer engages behind it, thereby removing the corresponding plates is easily possible. It results however, by folding away the connecting part from the retaining rail, that the end embedded in the plate of the connecting part is also pivoted into this and this will damage the plate.

According to the invention, this disadvantage is caused by a connecting part fixed, the web part of which is elastic and convexly curved in the direction of the ends lifted off to one side.

For loosening one in a ceiling or wall cladding bandage arranged connecting part, the elastic and curved web part is straightened according to the furnace, e.g. with a spatula pressed, whereby without moving its recessed end on the wall or ceiling plate that the support rail to part comprehensive end is posted from the same.

In _an: other embodiment, the web portion in the extension to the naeji to engage behind the carrying and Haiteschienen "both sides bent ends in its longitudinal Rich tung slitted twice, the central web portion." For the one the two ä \ xßerenStegteile after another in each case opposite direction of the corresponding bent ends are angled and that the web part or parts, which are angled in the direction of the ends bent for fastening the plates, have tongues which in turn are angled opposite to the web part in question. By inserting a thin sheet of metal into the joint of two adjacent deeken or edge plates up to the abutment of the connecting part, the bent web parts are straightened, whereby the ends of the same that encompass the holding rails are pressed outwards and release the holding rails.

In order to facilitate the hanging of the connecting part in the holding rails, the corresponding ends should also be preferred run diverging from one another.

Further details of the invention are from the drawing and from the following description:

The connecting part 1 consists essentially of an elastic one Web part 2, which is slotted several times in the longitudinal direction and right-angled at the end 3 for fastening the ceiling panels 10 shown is bent to one side so that the respectively adjacent end strips 3a, 3b * in different, parallel to each other extending planes are arranged. The other end 4 for engaging behind the support and holding rail 11 should either after the on the same side (see Figs. 1 to 3b) as end 3 or to both sides (see Figs. 4 to 4b). The connecting part 1, the end 4 of which is bent only to one side has a web part which is convexly curved in the direction of the bent ends 3 and 4 on. As can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2, the connecting part 1 in accordance with FIGS. 3, 3n and 3b, preferably in pairs to both

Sides of the support rails 11 arranged. For loosening the connecting parts 1 e.g. a sheet metal like the spatula shown in Fig.! (! 12 pushed into the joint of the adjacent ceiling panels 10 up to the retaining rail 11, whereby the elastic webs 2 and 2 '" straight, i.e. parallel to the spatula sheet and the ends 4 be pushed away from the paddles 11a of the holding rail 11. -

In a further embodiment, the web part 2 can be slotted twice in the longitudinal direction as an extension of the ends 4a and 4b bent on both sides (s, FIGS. 4 to 4b) to engage behind the support and holding rails 11, with after one, the two outer web parts 2b are angled after the other, in each case opposite direction of the corresponding ends 4a, 4b. Furthermore, the web part 2a angled in the direction of the end 5 bent for fastening the plates should have a tongue 2a ^r , which in turn is opposite to the relevant web part 2a is angled.

To release the connecting part 1 described last, as already described in the description of FIG. la mentioned ', * a spatula can be inserted into the joint of the adjacent basin plates 10. The tongue 2a ¹ - is grasped by the spatula plate and, together with the angled web parts 2a and 2b, is directed so straight, ie parallel to the spatula plate, that the ends 4a and 4b are pressed apart, thereby releasing the previously clasped retaining rail. ■
