Description

Sinn der ErfindungSense of the invention

ist es, (A) ein neuartiges System zur Ablage, Präsentation oder zur technischen Verwendung - oder aber (B) - in verkleinerter Ausführung - ein zum Spielen oder zum Erstellen eines Modells zu schaffen, welches leicht montierbar und ebenso leicht wieder demontierbar und - bienenwabenähnlich oder dreieckig - der Logik des 60°-Winkels oder dem Mehrfachen des 60°-Winkels folgend -aufgebaut - sich nach individuellem Bedarf bei beliebiger Erweiterbarkeit konfigurieren lässt, wobei auf kompliziertes Montagematerial sowie Werkzeug verzichtet werden kann, gleichwohl jedoch ein Höchstmaß an innerer Stabilität bei hoher Formschönheit und/oder praktischer Nutzbarkeit erreicht werden kann.it is (A) a novel system for filing, presentation or technical use - or (B) - in a reduced version - to create a game or to create a model, which is easy to install and just as easily disassembled and - similar to honeycomb or triangular - built according to the logic of the 60 ° angle or the multiple of the 60 ° angle - can be configured according to individual needs with any expandability, which can be dispensed with complicated mounting hardware and tools, but nevertheless a maximum of internal stability high aesthetic beauty and / or practical usability can be achieved.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

  • (A) Herkömmliche Regal- oder Ablage-Systeme folgen i. d. R. dem Gesetz des rechten Winkels. Das hat - auf den ersten Blick - statische sowie praktische Gründe.
    In der Patentschrift CH 631333 (sh. Anlage!) wird ein Wabensystem beschrieben. Eine Verwandtschaft zur vorliegenden Erfindung besteht jedoch nur insofern, als beide Male das statisch günstige, sich selbst stabilisierende Wabensystem zu Grunde liegt.
    Allerdings werden hier die Waben unmittelbar nebeneinander gesetzt. Sie werden nicht gesteckt, die einzelnen Trägerelemente sind nicht mit Einfräsungen zum Zusammenstecken versehen , sie beziehen ihren Zusammenhalt vielmehr durch die intelligente Verwendung einer Schiene, welche an den korrespondierenden Eckpunkten ihre Funktion erfüllt. Sie ist somit nur geringfügig mit vorliegender Erfindung verwandt.
    Hingegen spielt in er Patentschrift DE 38 27 622 C2 das Zusammenstecken einzelner Trägerelemente ohne die Verwendung anderer Hilfsmittel die zentrale Rolle - wie auch in der vorliegenden Erfindung. Sie ist jedoch in der speziellen Weise des Zusammensteckens (sh. Anspruch 1!) komplizierter als vorliegende Erfindung; weiter folgt sie dem Gesetzt des rechten Winkels - sie zielt nicht auf die Besonderheit, welche durch einen 30°-Winkel-Einschnitt erreicht wird und zu den vorliegenden Formbesonderheiten führt.
    Auch die französische Patentschrift Nr. FR 77 04489 fußt auf einfachem Zusammenstecken verschiedener Trägerelemente. Interessant ist hierbei Fig. 5 (Sh. Zeichnung!), welche durch die diagonale Anordnung eine gewisse Ähnlichkeit mit dem sechseckigen Wabensystem aufweist. Allein spielt hier der 30°-Winkel keine Rolle, wird weiter keine Formvielfalt erreicht.
    Über die Probleme herkömmlicher - auch modemer Montageweisen hinsichtlich ihrer Aufwändigkeit und ihres Verschleißes wird in DE 38 27 622 C2 ausführlich eingegangen. Der Vorteil eines bloßen Stecksystems wird beschrieben; die Einfachheit der Montage und ihr geringe Verschleißanfälligkeit ist in vorliegender Erfindung noch besser gelöst als in DE 38 27 622 C2.
    Das Dokument US 6 132 129 ist als nächstliegender Stand der Technik genannt.
    In Japan kennt man ausgeklügelte Holzverbindungen ohne zusätzliche Bauteile; jedoch sind diese Verbindungen derart kompliziert, dass sie für den Laien nicht praktikabel sind.
    Eine besondere Qualität der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ihre einfache Montierbarkeit. Ein ästhetischer Mangel der herkömmlichen Bauweise ist ihre Uniformität: der ausschließlich auftretende rechte Winkel lässt von seiner Struktur her eine größere Formvielfalt nicht zu.
    Das vorliegende Regal- und Ablagesystem weist eine Reihe von verschieden gestalteten Ablagemöglichkeiten aus. (Sh. Zeichnung!)
    (A) Conventional rack or shelf systems usually follow the law of the right angle. This has - at first glance - static as well as practical reasons.
    The patent CH 631333 (see Appendix!) Describes a honeycomb system. A relationship to the present invention, however, is only insofar as both times the statically favorable, self-stabilizing honeycomb system is based.
    However, the honeycombs are placed next to each other here. They are not plugged, the individual support elements are not provided with milled cutouts, they relate their cohesion rather by the intelligent use of a rail, which fulfills its function at the corresponding corner points. It is thus only slightly related to the present invention.
    On the other hand plays in his patent DE 38 27 622 C2, the mating of individual support elements without the use of other tools the central role - as in the present invention. However, it is more complicated than the present invention in the specific manner of mating (see claim 1!); Further, it follows the law of the right angle - it does not aim at the peculiarity which is achieved by a 30 ° angle incision and leads to the present form peculiarities.
    The French patent no. FR 77 04489 is based on simple mating of different support elements. Interesting here is Fig. 5 (Sh. Drawing!), Which has a certain similarity with the hexagonal honeycomb system by the diagonal arrangement. The 30 ° angle alone does not matter here, but no variety of shapes will be achieved.
    About the problems of conventional - even modern ways of mounting in terms of their complexity and their wear is discussed in detail in DE 38 27 622 C2. The advantage of a mere plug-in system is described; the simplicity of assembly and their low susceptibility to wear is even better solved in the present invention than in DE 38 27 622 C2.
    The document US 6 132 129 is mentioned as the closest prior art.
    In Japan, sophisticated wood joints are known without additional components; however, these compounds are so complicated that they are impractical to the layman.
    A particular quality of the present invention is its ease of assembly. An aesthetic deficiency of the conventional construction is their uniformity: the exclusively occurring right angle does not allow a greater variety of shapes due to its structure.
    The present shelf and filing system has a number of different storage options. (Sh. Drawing!)
  • (B) Hinsichtlich einer Verwendung vorliegender Erfindung zum Spielen oder als Modell für Möblierungsvorhaben oder einfach nur zu einem spielerischen Erlernen der Montage kommen ihre besonderen Qualitäten: Einfachheit der Montage bei hoher Formenvielfalt, einfache Demontierbarkeit und Eignung zur Serienherstellung zum Tragen.
    Es gibt Lego, Construkta, Plastikant; es gibt femer diverse Steckspiele aus Holz, Plastik oder anderen festen Materialien. In keinem dieser Spiele liegt der 60°-Winkel als prägende Eigenschaft zu Grunde - ein Steckspiel, welches dem oben beschriebenen als Miniaturausführung entspricht, ist dem Autor dieser Erfindung nicht bekannt.
    (B) With regard to use of the present invention for gaming or as a model for furnishing projects, or simply for a playful learning of assembly, their particular qualities are: ease of assembly with high variety of shapes, ease of disassembly and suitability for mass production.
    There is Lego, Construkta, Plastikant; There are also various plug-in games made of wood, plastic or other solid materials. None of these games is based on the 60 ° angle as a characteristic feature - a plug-in game, which corresponds to the miniature version described above, is not known to the author of this invention.
  • Beschreibung der ErfindungDescription of the invention

    Die Erfindung kommt im Wesentlichen mit zwei Bauelementen aus;

  • 1. einem rechteckigen Trägerelement (2) mit zwei Einfräsungen (12) an seinen Enden, welches aus herkömmlichen Material wie Holz, Plastik, Metall, Glas, festem Karton usw. hergestellt werden kann.
  • 2. Wenn größere Systeme geschaffen werden sollen oder hohe Belastungen ausgehalten werden müssen, empfiehlt sich die Verwendung eines stabilisierenden Füll- bzw. Klammer-Elements (3), (6), (6a).
  • The invention essentially comes with two components ;
  • 1. a rectangular support member (2) with two Einfräsungen (12) at its ends, which can be made of conventional material such as wood, plastic, metal, glass, solid cardboard, etc.
  • 2. If larger systems are to be created or high loads must be endured, it is advisable to use a stabilizing filling or clamping element (3), (6), (6a).
  • Jeweils sechs Trägerelemente werden in einer Bienenwaben-ähnlichen Form, dem Modul "Wabe" zusammengesetzt, was durch einfaches Ineinander-Fugen geschieht.
    Ermöglicht wird dies durch zwei senkrechte - bezogen auf die TE-Tiefe - 30°-Einschnitte bzw. Einfräsungen in Trägerelementstärke, auf bevorzugt halber Breite des Trägerelements bei einem Winkel von 30°, bezogen zur Senkrechte zum Trägerelement, wobei die beiden Winkel trapezförmig aufeinander zulaufen. Auf diese Weise lässt sich das Grundmodul des AblageSystems einfach zusammen fügen. Hierbei ist bei gewöhnlicher Belastung und qualitätsvollem Baumaterial wie etwa Multiplex die Verwendung des genannten Füllungselements (3) zur Stabilisierung noch nicht erforderlich.
    Erst wenn mehrere Module übereinander oder zu Überbrückungen zusammengefügt werden sollen und dementsprechend höhere Belastungen auftreten, empfiehlt sich ihre Verwendung.
    Zu Dichte und Statik des Bienenwabenmodells bedarf es keiner weiteren Erklärungen - sie sind hinlänglich bekannt.
    Each six support elements are assembled in a honeycomb-like shape, the module "honeycomb" , which is done by simply nesting.
    This is made possible by two vertical - with respect to the TE depth - 30 ° incisions or milled into carrier element thickness, preferably half the width of the support member at an angle of 30 °, relative to the perpendicular to the support element, wherein the two angles to each other in a trapezoidal shape , In this way, the basic module of the filing system can be easily put together. In this case, the use of said filling element (3) for stabilization is not required under normal load and high-quality building material such as multiplex.
    Only if several modules are to be stacked on top of each other or bridged together and accordingly higher loads occur, their use is recommended.
    The density and statics of the honeycomb model require no further explanation - they are well known.

    Sollen mehrere Module zusammen gefügt werden, müssen die Trägerelement-Enden passgenau zueinander gefügt werden. Hierzu ist es nötig, dass sie - ebenfalls in einem Winkel von 30° angeschrägt sind, wiederum trapezförmig und in gleicher Ausrichtung, wie die beiden Einschnitte.
    Nun kommt das stabilisierende Füll- bzw. Klammer-Element zum Einsatz. In der Form eines doppelten Trapezes oder einem doppelten griechischem Sigma (3), (6) entsprechend, verklammert es zwei Module miteinander.
    Als schmales Element kann es auch im Sinne einer Ablage nutzbringende Funktion übernehmen.
    If several modules are to be joined together, the carrier element ends must be fitted together to fit each other. For this purpose it is necessary that they are beveled - also at an angle of 30 °, again trapezoidal and in the same orientation, as the two incisions.
    Now the stabilizing filling or clamping element is used. In the form of a double trapezium or a double Greek sigma (3), (6), it clamps two modules together.
    As a slim element, it can also take on a useful function in terms of storage.

    Ebenso ist es aber auch als vollständige Füllung nützlich, indem es die gesamte Fläche ausfüllt, welche zwischen zwei einander berührenden Modulen entsteht.
    In diesem Falle stabilisiert es sowohl in der Form eines trapezförmig (6a) zugeschnittenen Brettes, als auch als ein den gesamten Zwischenraum füllendes Element (6).
    Insbesondere an der Basis, aber auch an den Rändern lässt sich als stabilisierende Füllung ein einfaches oder doppeltes (6), (6a) Trapez einsetzen. Eine solche Füllung empfiehlt sich auch dann, wenn diese an einer Wand anliegt, an welcher sie verschraubt werden kann und so einem Ablagesystem sozusagen als Anker dient, an welchem dieses verschraubt werden kann, um nicht Raumeinwerts zu kippen.
    However, it is also useful as a complete fill by filling the entire area created between two modules touching each other.
    In this case, it stabilizes both in the shape of a trapezoidal (6a) cut board, and as an entire space filling member (6).
    In particular at the base, but also at the edges can be used as a stabilizing filling a single or double (6), (6a) trapezoid. Such a filling is also recommended when it rests against a wall to which it can be screwed and thus serves as a storage system as an anchor to which it can be screwed, so as not to tilt Raumeinwerts.

    In Weiterentwicklung der Erfindung lassen sich zusätzliche Trägerelemente - hier "STAP" genannt - auch in die Waben einsetzen. Dazu lassen sich die vorhandenen Trägerelemente verwenden, oder, um den hier störenden Einschnitt zu vermeiden, Trägerelemente eben ohne Einschnitt. Der Winkel von 30° macht dies passgenau möglich. Im Falle eines Einschnitts genau an den Viertelenden der Trägerelemente füllt das eingeschobene Trägerelement exakt die Wabenmitte. In diesem Falle erreichen wir den bevorzugten, möglicherweise faszinierenden Sonderfall, dass - abgesehen von den nötigen Verklammerungen bzw. Wand- oder Bodenverankerungen - ein einziges Bauteil die Herstellung eines derart komplexen Ablagesystems ermöglicht. In a further development of the invention, additional support elements - here called "STAP" - can also be used in the honeycomb. For this purpose, the existing support elements can be used, or, to avoid the inconvenient incision, carrier elements just without incision. The angle of 30 ° makes this possible exactly. In the case of an incision exactly at the quarter ends of the support elements, the inserted carrier element fills exactly the center of the honeycomb. In this case, we achieve the preferred, possibly fascinating special case, that - apart from the necessary brackets or wall or floor anchors - a single component allows the production of such a complex filing system.

    Werden diese Trägerelemente an den Auflageenden fixiert, etwa durch Krampen oder durch einfache Verschraubung, entsteht ein zusätzlich stabilisierendes Wirkungsmoment. Dies beeinträchtigt den Charme des Systems, ohne Leim und Eisen auszukommen, nur geringfügig. Für den Fall, dass das System nicht gestellt, sondern an einer Wand hängend befestigt wird, ist eine solche zusätzliche Sicherung nicht nötig.
    Die Zwischenräume unterhalb, neben und oberhalb der eigentlichen Waben lassen sich als Ablagefläche, z.B. für Zeitschriften CD's usw. nutzen; ebenso lassen sich die kleinen Sechseck-Waben, welche an den Berührungspunkten der jeweiligen Trägerelementenden entstehen zur Ablage oder zum Präsentieren nutzen.
    Eine günstige Statik lässt sich jedoch auf einfache Weise erreichen, indem die Basis am Boden fixiert wird. Dies ist durch Verschraubung möglich, oder auch durch Einfügen eines konisch im 30°-Winkel zugeschnitten Brettes (3a), welches sich eicht am Boden oder auf einer Bodenplatte fixieren lässt. Hierdurch erhält das gesamte System die günstige "Statik des Bogens
    Es sind neben der in der Zeichnung dargestellten Form noch eine Fülle anderer Kombinationen möglich.
    If these support elements are fixed to the support ends, for example by cramping or by simple screw connection, an additional stabilizing moment of action is created. This only slightly affects the charm of the system, without the need for glue and iron. In the event that the system is not placed, but attached to a wall hanging, such additional backup is not necessary.
    The spaces below, next to and above the actual honeycomb can be used as storage space, eg for magazines CD's, etc .; Similarly, the small hexagonal honeycomb, which arise at the points of contact of the respective carrier element ends can be used for storage or presentation.
    However, a favorable statics can be achieved in a simple manner by the base is fixed to the ground. This is possible by screwing, or by inserting a conically cut at 30 ° angle board (3a), which can be fixed on the ground or on a bottom plate Eicht. This gives the entire system the favorable "statics of the bow
    In addition to the shape shown in the drawing, a wealth of other combinations are possible.

    Natürlich lassen sich die beschriebenen Einschnitte auch versetzen - Mehr am Rande gelegen, vergrößern sie die Innenwabe, mehr zur Mitte hin angebracht, werden die besagten Zwischenräume vergrößert. Hierbei müssen jedoch Symmetrie und Einheitlichkeit gewahrt bleiben, soll ein aus mehreren Modulen bestehendes System passgenau harmonisiert werden. Möglich ist indes die Bildung eines gedehnten Sechsecks (sh. Zeichnung 4!), wobei zwei von sechs Trägerelementen einer Wabenform verlängert sind.Of course, the described cuts can also be offset - More on the edge, enlarge the inner honeycomb, more attached to the middle, the said Enlarged spaces. However, symmetry and uniformity must be preserved remain, a system consisting of several modules is to be harmonized precisely become. However, it is possible to form a stretched hexagon (see drawing 4!), Where two of six support elements of a honeycomb shape are extended.

    Insbesondere eine günstige Proportion soll im Folgenden dargestellt werden:

  • 1. Wie bereits oben beschrieben: der Einschnitt erfolgt jeweils an den "Viertelenden" der Trägerelemente, so dass die Länge des mittleren Abschnittes a' die Hälfte der Gesamtlänge a beträgt - dadurch wird das passgenaue, mittige Einfügen eines Trägerelementes, (2) oder (4), in das Sechseck (1) ermöglicht.
  • In particular, a favorable proportion should be shown below:
  • 1. As already described above: the incision is made in each case at the "quarter ends" of the support elements, so that the length of the middle section a 'is half the total length a - thereby the accurately fitting, central insertion of a support element, (2) or ( 4) into the hexagon (1).
  • Bei stabilem Trägermaterial lassen sich sogar Zwischenräume überbrücken, etwa um eine Durchreiche einzurahmen. With stable carrier material even gaps can be bridged, for example around one Hatch to framing.

    In Weiterentwicklung der Erfindung lassen sich einzelne oder mehrere Module auch als Träger für Tischplatten etwa oder einfach als Hocker verwenden.
    Hierbei empfiehlt sich neben der sechseckigen Wabenform die stabilere Dreiecksform.
       Drei Grundelemente lassen sich dann zu einem Dreieck zusammenfügen, wenn eines der Grundelemente wechselseitig eingefräst wurde.
    In a further development of the invention, one or more modules can also be used as a support for tabletops or simply as a stool.
    Here, in addition to the hexagonal honeycomb shape, the more stable triangular shape is recommended.
    Three basic elements can then be joined to form a triangle if one of the basic elements has been milled in alternately .

    Selbst die Herstellung eines Klettergerüstes lässt sich so in einfacher Form bewerkstelligen.Even the production of a climbing frame can be done in a simple way.

    In Weiterentwicklung der Erfindung lassen sich noch zusätzliche Teile einfügen, Trägerelemente in schwindenden Maßen etwa, die ein sich verjüngendes System von waagerechten Ablageflächen bilden, oder Dreiecke von 30°-60°-90°, welche an den Schrägen der Waben zusätzliche waagerechte Ablageflächen bilden.In a further development of the invention, additional parts can be added, carrier elements in dwindling proportions, for example, which is a rejuvenating system of horizontal Shelves form, or triangles of 30 ° -60 ° -90 °, which at the slopes of the honeycomb form additional horizontal shelves.

    In verkleinerter Ausführung eignet sich das vorliegende, auf Sechs- und/oder Dreieck beruhende Konstruktionssystem als Spiel. In seinen vielfältigen Möglichkeiten bewegt es die Konstruktions-Phantasie und schult das räumliche Vorstellungsvermögen. Hierbei kann es auch zur modellhaften Vorbereitung für eine wirkliche Möblierung etwa dienen. Es führt auch in die besondere Technik des Konstruierens ein, ohne dabei gewichtige Möbelteile bewegen zu müssen.
    Darüber hinaus lässt es sich sogar als Kleinablage für Gewürze, Schmuck etc. in Anwendung bringen.
    In a scaled-down version, the present six- and / or triangle-based construction system is suitable as a game. In its many possibilities, it moves the construction imagination and trains the spatial imagination. This can also serve as a model preparation for a real furnishing about. It also introduces the special technique of constructing without having to move weighty furniture parts.
    In addition, it can even be used as a small shelf for spices, jewelry, etc. in application.

    Vorteile dieser Bauweise :Advantages of this design: 1. Die niedrigen Herstellungskosten1. The low production cost

    Aufgrund der Einfachheit der Konstruktion - lediglich Einschnitte und Abwinkeln der Trägerelementenden und die Herstellung der stabilisierenden Füllungen sind vonnöten - können die Herstellungskosten besonders niedrig angesetzt werden.Due to the simplicity of the design - just cuts and angling the Carrier element ends and the production of stabilizing fillings are required - the manufacturing costs can be set particularly low.

    2. Die Einfachheit Montage2. The simplicity of assembly

    Gelernt werden muss lediglich das geeignete Zusammenfügen zweier Trägerelemente, bzw. das Einfügen der stabilisierenden Verklammerungen, was sich unmittelbar aus der Anschauung ergibt. Das Einfügen der Füllungen bedarf nur einfachster Erklärung. Selbst bei größeren Bausätzen aus vielen Modulen bleibt die einmal begonnene Montagelogik nicht nur erhalten, sie strukturiert sich geradezu von selbst.
    Beim Miniaturmodell lässt sich dies spielerisch einüben.
    Only the appropriate joining of two carrier elements, or the insertion of the stabilizing clamps, which results directly from the intuition, has to be learned. The insertion of the fillings requires only the simplest explanation. Even with larger kits made up of many modules, once the assembly logic has begun, it not only remains intact, it also structures itself by itself.
    With the miniature model, this can be practiced playfully.

    3. Die günstige Stabilität3. The favorable stability

    Die günstigen statischen Eigenschaften des Bienenwabenmodells sind hinlänglich bekannt.
    Das gleichseitige Dreieck ist die stabilste Form überhaupt. Ein Einfügen von Klammerelementen (3, 6) schafft zusätzliche Stabilität.
    The favorable static properties of the honeycomb model are well known.
    The equilateral triangle is the most stable form ever. An insertion of clip elements (3, 6) provides additional stability.

    4. Flexibilität im Raum4. Flexibility in the room

    Da die Module beliebig aufgebaut werden können, sind sie auch geeignet, besonderen Wandformen gerecht zu werden. Mansarden etwa können so besser gefüllt werden.
    Als Raumteiler eignen sie sich nicht nur von Ihrer Ästhetik her - sie lassen sich auch besonders günstig am Boden bzw. auf einer geeigneten Bodenplatte durch konisch zugeschnittene Bretter etwa fixieren.
    Since the modules can be constructed arbitrarily, they are also suitable to meet special wall shapes. Mansards can be filled better.
    As a room divider, they are not only suitable for their aesthetics - they can also be fixed particularly conveniently on the floor or on a suitable floor slab using conically cut boards.

    5. Schönheit5. Beauty

    Das Sechseck befreit vom Gesetz des rechten Winkels. Es bewirkt, zumal mit den Konstruktionsbedingten Zwischenräumen eine kleine, regelmäßige Vielfalt von Erscheinungsformen, welche das Auge ansprechen.
    Das Bienenwaben-Modell begünstigt u. a. die klassische Komposition des Dreiecks (Sh. Zeichnung!).
    The hexagon frees the law of the right angle. It causes a small, regular variety of manifestations, which appeal to the eye, especially with the construction-related spaces.
    The honeycomb model favors, among other things, the classical composition of the triangle (Sh. Drawing!).

    6. Vielseitige Verwendbarkeit6. Versatility

    Das System lässt sich u. a. zur Ablage, zur Präsentation und/oder als Raumteiler verwenden.
    Aufgrund seiner Solidität und einfachen Montier- sowie Demontierbarkeit lässt es sich als Gerüst für Füllungen wie Putz, Bauschaum etc, aber auch als Formgerüst für Abgüsse u. ä. verwenden.
    Da es von der Seite her eine aufgebrochene Form besitzt, kommen in ihm auch schallschluckende Eigenschaften zum Tragen. Auf solche Weise lassen sich schalldämmende Mauern an vielbefahrenen Straßen etwa montieren.
    Insbesondere ist die Verwendbarkeit als Spiel oder Modell hervorzuheben. Eine Miniaturausführung hierzu lässt sich leicht herstellen.
    The system can be used, among other things, for filing, for presentation and / or as a room divider.
    Due to its solidity and easy mounting and dismounting it can be used as a framework for fillings such as plaster, construction foam etc, but also as a molding stand for casts u. Ä. Use.
    Since it has a broken shape from the side, it also has sound-absorbing properties. In this way, sound-insulating walls can be mounted on busy roads.
    In particular, the usability is to be emphasized as a game or model. A miniature version for this can be easily produced.

    Claims (17)

    1. Construction system consisting of rectangular support elements (2) with a certain breadth and depth, specified in so far as each support element (2) has two incisions i.e. millings placed in vertical position to the depth of the support element in a 30 degrees angle in relation to the vertical of the rectangular support element and in the thickness of the support element, whereby the two incisions i.e. millings taper to each other in a trapezoide shape.
    2. specified in so far as the incisions are placed symmetrical to the center (13) of the support clement (2).
    3. specified in so far as the support elements at the ends are cut in a trapezoide shape in a 60 degrees angle, preferably parallel to the incisions.
    4. specified in so far as fillings in the shape of a double trapezoide with a 30 degrees angle or similar elements for use of clamping can be fitted for the purpose of further stabilization, especially for connecting two modules.
    5. specified in so far as an additional support element (4) can be placed in a hexagon (1) or an element with similar properties - preferably in a central position -, which can be fixed for a better static position.
