Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for connecting two rails.
  • a connecting element for connecting a metal rail in the form of a supporting profile of a suspended ceiling with a perpendicular thereto metal rail of a counter profile wherein the metal rails are formed as CD profiles and the connecting element is formed so that it is in cross section U-shaped embraces the open bottom of the edge profile and by means of lateral approaches the U-leg behind the edge beads of the overlying support profile with elastic expansion of the same is latched.
  • the lateral projections are hook-shaped and engage in a form-fitting manner in the edge beads.
  • the elastic deflection allows the engagement of the lugs and press the lugs after latching in the locking position.
  • the free outer edges of the spring tongues are supported on the respective edge bead on the counter profile and are formed by U-shaped punched out of the U-bottom of the connecting element.
  • U1 is a cross connector for two superimposed, upwardly open, in cross-section C-shaped and two each in the Cross section approximately semicircular inwardly curved profile edges having CD rails known.
  • This known cross connector is inverted U-shaped and overlaps with a web plate the upper CD rail. With two legs, the cross connector protrudes into the lower one CD rail, and grabs with lateral hooks on the thighs under the Profile edges of the lower CD rail.
  • the CD tracks are called Guideways used for suspended ceilings and are as Sheet metal rails designed (DIN 18182 T1).
  • Support tabs At the two free Edges of the web plate of the cross connector are support tabs down Angled, each with a support edge to the inside support arched profile edges of the upper CD rail. Through this Support tabs will be a resilient tension of the two CD rails achieved, so that on the one hand a simple assembly is guaranteed and On the other hand, rattling of the two CD rails is reliably prevented.
  • the further document DE 197 35 711 C2 discloses a connecting element for connecting two cross superimposed C-profiles with flanged edges.
  • the connecting element consists of a U-shaped cross connector with a bottom and two perpendicular to these angled legs whose distance from each other corresponds to the width of the upper C-profile and on the side edges locking lugs are provided with undercuts, which in the flanged edges of the C-profile are latched.
  • the legs In the vicinity of the bottom of the cross connector are provided by the legs inwardly projecting rigid projections having inclined surfaces that match the outer radii of the flanged edges of the cooperate upper C-profile and the wall so elastically bend inwards that a force acts on the upper C-profile, which counteracts the weight of the attached to the lower C-profile parts.
  • the inward bending of the walls of the upper C-profile increases the strength of the connection by the elastic return forces caused thereby, and also avoids play or rattling of the interconnected profiles.
  • the cross connector is bent from an originally flat stamped sheet metal part.
  • the projections consist in particular of beads, which are each turned off in the region of the bending edges between the legs and the bottom obliquely inwards.
  • cross connector locking elements may further be provided which form a rigid support between the bottom and the edges of the upper C-profile after their folding in the mounted position of the cross connector.
  • the locking elements are formed in particular as tabs over desired bending edges on the sheet metal bottom of the cross connector and are bent from the sheet metal part down for additional stiffening of the connection.
  • the invention is based on the object, a device for Connect two rails to allow easy installation and ensures a secure connection.
