Abstract

Linearverbinder aus Kunststoff für hohle, insbesondere aus Metall bestehende Abstandhalterprofile von Mehrscheibenisoliergläsern, dessen flacher, länglicher Körper (1) in den Hohlraum des einen Abstandhalterprofils und den Hohlraum des anderen Abstandhalterprofils der beiden miteinander zu verbindenden Profilkörper einsteckbar ist und eine mit Anschlagelementen in Form von elastischen, zur Körpermitte (C) geneigten Bremslamellen (7, 8) versehene Oberfläche aufweist, welche beim Einstecken gegen die einander zugewandten Profilkörperstirnseiten stoßen, wobei der längliche Körper ferner mit lamellenförmigen, aus seinen Schmalseiten vorspringenden Feder (2) zur Vergrößerung der Reibungskraft zwischen Körperoberfläche und Profilinnenwandoberfläche versehen ist und der längliche Körper einen vollständig oder nahezu vollständig U-förmigen Querschnitt mit dem Durchlauf eines Molekularsiebs aufweist und in der Mitte seiner Länge auf den beiden Schmalseiten durch nach außen gerichtete, höckerförmige Versteifungselemente (5, 6) radial versteift ist, denen die Bremslamellen (7, 8) gegenüberliegen, die beim Einschieben des Körpers in den Hohlraum der Abstandhalterprofile von den Abstandhalterprofilstirnseiten niederdrückbar sind und einen Einschubanschlag bilden.Linear connectors made of plastic for hollow, in particular made of metal Spacer profiles of multi-pane insulating glass, whose flat, elongated body (1) in the cavity of one spacer profile and the cavity of the other Spacer profile of the two profile bodies to be connected to one another can be inserted and one with stop elements in the form of elastic, inclined towards the center of the body (C) Brake discs (7, 8) provided surface, which when inserted against the mutually facing profile body end faces, the elongated body also with lamellar spring (2) projecting from its narrow sides to enlarge the Frictional force between the body surface and profile inner wall surface is provided and the elongated body has a completely or almost completely U-shaped cross section the passage of a molecular sieve and in the middle of its length on the two Narrow sides radially through outwardly directed, hump-shaped stiffening elements (5, 6) is stiffened, the brake plates (7, 8) opposite, when inserting the Body into the cavity of the spacer profiles from the spacer profile end faces are depressible and form an insertion stop.

Zur Verbesserung der Abdichtungswirkung des Linearverbinders im Bereich der Stoßstelle der miteinander zu verbindenden Abstandhalterprofilkörper sowie der Verbesserung seines Halts und damit seines festen Sitzes im Hohlraum der Abstandhalterprofilkörper nach seinem Einbau wird vorgeschlagen, daß im wesentlichen alle lamellenförmigen, vorspringenden Federn (2) als Doppelfedern ausgebildet sind, bestehend aus zwei hintereinander angeordneten Federblättern (2a, 2b), die gemeinsam eine in etwa V-förmige Konfiguration bilden und sich im in das Abstandhalterprofil eingebauten Zustand des Linearverbinders gegenseitig abstützen, und das die höckerförmigen Versteifüngselemente (5, 6) am Boden (20) des länglichen Körpers (1) so ausgebildet und angeordnet sind, daß sie eine Sperre für den Vorbeilauf des Molekularsiebs außerhalb des U-förmigen Körperquerschnitts bilden.

Figure 00000001
To improve the sealing effect of the linear connector in the area of the joint of the spacer profile bodies to be connected to one another and to improve its hold and thus its firm fit in the cavity of the spacer profile body after its installation, it is proposed that essentially all lamellar, projecting springs (2) are designed as double springs , consisting of two spring leaves (2a, 2b) arranged one behind the other, which together form an approximately V-shaped configuration and support each other when the linear connector is installed in the spacer profile, and which has the hump-shaped stiffening elements (5, 6) on the floor (20 ) of the elongated body (1) are designed and arranged such that they form a barrier to the passage of the molecular sieve outside the U-shaped body cross section.
