Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Einsteckverbinder nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a plug-in connector according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ein solcher Einsteckverbinder ist vom GB 2 297 349 bekannt.Such a plug-in connector is from GB 2 297 349 known.

Anordnungen von Einsteckverbindern in hohlen Abstandshalteprofilleisten zwischen Isolierglasscheiben sind aus der DE 195 27 930 bekannt. Der Einsteckverbinder weist ein U- oder Hohlprofil auf, und die Außenfläche sind mit Rippen oder dergleichen versehen, so daß ein guter Presssitz in den Hohlprofilleisten gewährleistet ist und diese sich bei thermischen Längenveränderungen nicht über den Verbinder auseinanderziehen. Die Glasscheiben werden auf dem Abstandshalterrahmen mit einem Thiokolkleber befestigt. Dieser ist jedoch gasdurchlässig, so daß zur Verhinderung eines Feuchtigkeitseintritts in den Glasscheibeninnenraum und eines Austritts des hochmolekularen Füllgases die äußeren Ränder der Hohlprofilverklebung mit einem Butylkitt abgedichtet werden. Eine Dichtigkeit der Stoßstellen der mit einem Einsteckverbinder aneinander gekoppelten Hohlprofilleisten ist jedoch dadurch nicht gegeben, und es bedarf aufwendiger Einzeldichtmaßnahmen der Stoßstellen.Arrangements of plug-in connectors in hollow spacer profile strips between insulating glass panes are known from the DE 195 27 930 known. The male connector has a U- or hollow profile, and the outer surface are provided with ribs or the like, so that a good interference fit is ensured in the hollow profile strips and these do not pull apart on thermal length changes on the connector. The glass sheets are attached to the spacer frame with a Thiokol adhesive. However, this is permeable to gas, so that the outer edges of the Hohlprofilverklebung be sealed with a Butylkitt to prevent ingress of moisture in the glass interior and an exit of the high molecular weight gas filling. A tightness of the joints of a plug-in connector coupled to each other hollow profile strips, however, is not given, and it requires complex single-sealing measures of the joints.

Der Einsteckverbinder ist massiv oder weist eine U-Form mit einer den Hohlprofilleisten innen angepaßte Hohlprofilform auf und trägt Rückhaltelamellen, die gegen ein Abziehen der Hohlprofilleisten einen Rückhalt bieten, der jedoch, insbesondere im kritischen Stoß-Abdichtungsbereich, nur beschränkt wirksam ist. Über den Stoßbereich der Abstandshalterenden kann trockenes Füllgas aus der Scheibe entweichen und feuchte Luft durch die Thiokolverklebung der Scheiben mit den Abstandshaltern in den Scheibeninnenraum diffundieren, wodurch deren Isolationsfunktion stark gemindert wird.The plug-in connector is solid or has a U-shape with a hollow profiled strips adapted to the inside hollow profile shape and carries retaining lamellae, which provide a backing against removal of the hollow profile strips, which, however, is particularly effective only in limited critical shock-sealing area. Dry filler gas can escape from the disk via the abutting area of the spacer ends, and moist air can diffuse through the Thiokol bonding of the disks with the spacers into the interior of the disk, which greatly reduces their insulation function.

Weiterhin sind Eckverbinder aus der P 42 35 397 C1 bekannt, auf deren Schenkel Hohlprofil-Abstandshalter aufgeschoben werden, die jeweils an einem Stufenabsatz des Eckverbinders enden, wo jedoch keine sichere Abdichtung zum Innenraum der Verbundglasscheibe entsteht.Furthermore, corner connectors from the P 42 35 397 C1 are known, are pushed onto the legs of hollow-profile spacers, each ending at a stepped shoulder of the corner connector, where, however, no secure seal to the interior of the laminated glass arises.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Verbesserung eines Eck- oder Einsteckverbinders zu schaffen, die eine selbsttätige sichere Abdichtung der Stoßstelle zwischen den verbundenen Hohlprofilleisten erbringt.It is an object of the invention to provide an improvement of a corner or plug-in connector, which provides an automatic secure seal the joint between the connected hollow profile strips.

Die Lösung besteht darin, daß die Klappe schräg angestellt mit Butylkitt unterfüllt sind und bei aufgeschobener Hohlprofilleiste in die Vertiefung verschwenkt diese annähernd ausfüllen, wobei randseitig der Klappen austretender Butylkitt einen Stoßbereich an deren freien Enden abdichtet.The solution is that the flap obliquely filled with Butylkitt are underfilled and pivoted with deferred hollow profile bar in the depression, these approximately fill, with edge of the flaps issuing Butylkitt seals a joint area at the free ends.

Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

Vorteilhafterweise ist die Ausnehmung in einer oberen Fläche in der Mitte des Einsteckverbinders oder neben den Stufenabsätze des Eckverbinders angeordnet. Damit werden beim Einschieben in die Hohlprofilleisten der Stoßbereich in der Verbindermitte oder an der Ecke von dem austretenden Butylkitt erreicht und die Stoßstelle sicher abgedichtet.Advantageously, the recess is arranged in an upper surface in the middle of the male connector or adjacent to the stepped heels of the corner connector. Thus, the push area in the connector center or at the corner of the exiting Butylkitt be achieved when inserting into the hollow profile strips and securely sealed the joint.

Die Klappen sind biegsam angelenkt, insbesondere mit einem Filmscharnier leicht beweglich jeweils an dem Rand der Ausnehmung befestigt, der zu dem Ende des Einsteckverbinders weist. Dabei ist der Einsteckverbinder so gespritzt, daß die Klappen zunächst schräg stehen und die Ausnehmung frei liegt.The flaps are flexibly hinged, in particular with a film hinge easily movable in each case attached to the edge of the recess facing the end of the male connector. The male connector is so injected that the flaps are initially inclined and the recess is exposed.

Die Füllmenge an Butylkitt in der Ausnehmung ist so bemessen, daß durch das Einschieben des Verbinders in die Hohlprofilleisten und damit das Herunterdrücken der Klappen soviel Butylkitt aus der Ausnehmung austritt, daß der Abstand zwischen den beiden Hohlprofilleisten bzw. zum Eckverbinder-Stufenabsatz sicher mit Butylkitt gefüllt wird.The amount of Butylkitt in the recess is such that by inserting the connector in the hollow profile strips and thus pushing down the flaps so much butyl putty exits the recess that the distance between the two hollow profile strips or corner connector step paragraph filled with butyl putty safely becomes.

Die Lage des Einsteckverbinders zwischen den Hohlprofilleisten ist durch Anschlagstege oder das Eckstück bestimmt. Ein Anschlagsteg befindet sich auf der unteren Fläche des Einsteckverbinders, gegenüber dem Spalt zwischen den beiden Klappen. Weitere Anschlagstege befinden sich vorteilhafterweise an jeder Seite des Einsteckverbinders in der Mitte auf der jeweiligen Schräge des U-förmigen Verbinders.The position of the male connector between the hollow profile strips is determined by stop webs or the corner piece. A stop ridge is located on the bottom surface of the male connector, opposite the gap between the two flaps. Further stop webs are advantageously located on each side of the male connector in the middle on the respective slope of the U-shaped connector.

Vorzugsweise weist in besonderen Ausführungen der Einsteckverbinder zu den Kantenbereichen beidseitig der Vertiefung oder des Eckstückes reihenartig Rutschenhemmstege und/oder Noppen auf, die aus weicherem Kunststoff bestehen, als der übrige Einsteckverbinder, und die mit einem Preßsitz in das Innenprofil der Hohlprofilleiste passen.Preferably, in particular embodiments, the plug-in connector to the edge regions on both sides of the recess or the corner piece in a row slide anti-slip webs and / or nubs, which consist of softer plastic, as the remaining male connector, and which fit with a press fit into the inner profile of the hollow profile strip.

Eine weitere Verbesserung der Abdichtung, die auch in Kombination mit der vorstehenden anzuwenden ist, besteht darin, daß die Klappen mit Querschlitzen versehen sind, aus denen der Butylkitt austretend eine Verklebung zu der jeweils dort aufgeschobenen Hohlprofilleiste innenseitig erzeugt.A further improvement of the seal, which is also to be used in combination with the above, is that the flaps are provided with transverse slots, from which the Butylkitt exiting a bond to the respectively deferred there hollow profile strip produced on the inside.

Eine dritte Verbesserung der Abdichtung die auch in Kombination mit einer oder beiden vorstehenden anzuwenden ist, besteht darin, daß der Steckverbinder ein Hohlprofil aufweist, in dessen niedrigen Seitenwänden jeweils ein Metallband eingespritzt gelagert ist. Das Metallband kann auch u-förmig bodenseitig durchlaufen.A third improvement of the seal which is also to be used in combination with one or both of the above, is that the connector has a hollow profile, in whose low side walls in each case a metal strip is mounted injected. The metal strip can also undergo U-shaped bottom side.

Die Klappen sind mit einem Filmscharnier leicht beweglich jeweils an dem Rand der Ausnehmung befestigt, der zu dem Ende des Einsteckverbinders weist. Dabei ist der Einsteckverbinder an den Klappgelenken so dünn gespritzt, daß die Klappen über der Ausnehmung beweglich sind.The flaps are easily movably attached to the edge of the recess with a film hinge facing the end of the male connector. In this case, the male connector is sprayed so thin on the folding joints, that the flaps are movable over the recess.

Um den Halt der Hohlprofilleisten auf dem Einsteckverbinder zu verbessern, damit die Dichtigkeit des Stoßbereiches durch den darin befindlichen Butylkitt langfristig auch bei Belastung, die durch Luftdruckänderungen und thermische Ausdehnungsdifferenzen auftreten, zu sichern, sind die drei vorstehenden Varianten einzeln oder in Kombination anzuwenden.In order to improve the retention of the hollow profile strips on the plug-in connector, so that the tightness of the joint area by the Butylkitt therein long term secure under load caused by air pressure changes and thermal expansion differences, the three above variants are applied individually or in combination.

Gewöhnlich ist der Kunststoff des Verbinders vorzugsweise glasfaserdotiert, so daß er eine geringe Schrumpfung und relativ große Stabilität, jedoch eine beschränkte Elastizität aufweist. Deshalb ist nur ein mäßiger Rückhalt durch die Grundstruktur der Verbinderoberflächen, auch wenn sie geriffelt ist, bei ungünstigen Toleranzverhältnissen des Verbinder- und Leistenquerschnitts gegeben. Dem bieten die Rutschhemmstege Abhilfe.Usually, the plastic of the connector is preferably glass fiber doped so that it has low shrinkage and relatively high stability but limited elasticity. Therefore, only a moderate retention by the basic structure of the connector surfaces, even if it is corrugated, given unfavorable tolerance ratios of the connector and strip cross-section. This offer the anti-slip bars remedy.

Diese Rutschhemmstege, sind in den Kantenbereich beidseitig vor und hinter der Vertiefung senkrecht zur Verbinderoberfläche gestellt und weisen z. B. eine Höhe von ca. 5 mm, eine geringe Dicke von höchstens einem Millimeter und ein Höhenübermaß zum Querschnittsprofil von 0,1 bis 0,3 mm auf. Diese Klemmstege sind jeweils zu dem nächstliegenden Verbinderende hin gerichtet mit einem Weichkunststoff elastisch abgestützt, wobei die Höhe der Abstützung mit dem Abstand vom Klemmsteg abnimmt. Beispielsweise sind auf jedem der vier Kantenbereiche je fünf Klemmstege ausgebildet. Die einseitigen weichen Kunststoffstützpartien geben den Stützen eine ausreichende Elastizität beim Aufschieben der Profilleisten und einen festen Halt gegen ein Ausziehen, wobei das Übermaßende des schmalen harten Steges beim Einschieben in die Profilleiste eindringt und diese dann partiell ausbeult.These anti-slip webs are placed in the edge area on both sides in front of and behind the recess perpendicular to the connector surface and have z. B. a height of about 5 mm, a small thickness of at most one millimeter and a height excess to Cross-sectional profile of 0.1 to 0.3 mm. These clamping webs are each elastically supported to the nearest end of the connector with a soft plastic, wherein the height of the support decreases with the distance from the clamping web. For example, five clamping webs are formed on each of the four edge regions. The one-sided soft plastic support parts give the supports sufficient elasticity when sliding the profile strips and a firm hold against pulling out, the excess of the narrow hard web penetrates when inserted into the profile strip and then partially bulge.

Eine Alternative zu den Rutschhemmstegen sind Rutschhemmnoppen, die ebenso auf die Kantenbereiche aufgebracht werden. Sie sind als Pyramidenstümpfe aus Weichkunststoff ausgebildet und erheben sich jeweils von dem im Querschnitt der Hohlprofilleiste eng tolerierten Kantenbereich um ein Übermaß von 0,3 mm bis 0,6 mm in den gesamten Querschnitt hinein. Z. B. ist die Länge der Pyramidenstümpfe in Einschubrichtung des Verbinders an der Basis etwa 5 mm, ihre Breite ca. 2 mm und ihre Plateaulänge ca. 1 mm.An alternative to the anti-slip bars are slip-resistant nubs, which are also applied to the edge areas. They are designed as truncated pyramids of soft plastic and each rise from the cross-section of the hollow profile strip closely tolerated edge region by an excess of 0.3 mm to 0.6 mm in the entire cross section. For example, the length of the truncated pyramids in the direction of insertion of the connector at the base is about 5 mm, its width about 2 mm and its plateau length about 1 mm.

Eine weitere Alternative zur Haftverbesserung des Steckverbinders ist die Einbringung von Querschlitzen in die Klappen. Diese Schlitze haben z. B. eine Breite von 1 - 2 mm und reichen jeweils über ca. 80 % der Klappenbreite. Es sind zwei bis drei Schlitze pro Klappe vorgesehen, und die sich gegenüberliegenden Klappenkanten haben einen Abstand von z. B. 3 - 5 mm, so daß auch dort der Butylkitt an den im Stoßbereich etwa 0,5 - 1 mm weit beabstandeten Hohlprofilleisten randseitig einen Halt gibt.Another alternative to improving the adhesion of the connector is the introduction of transverse slots in the flaps. These slots have z. B. a width of 1 - 2 mm and each extend over about 80% of the flap width. There are two to three slots per flap provided, and the opposing flap edges have a distance of z. B. 3 - 5 mm, so that there is also the Butylkitt at the joint area in the joint area about 0.5 - 1 mm wide spaced hollow profile strips a stop.

Beim Zudrücken des Klappen preßt sich Butylkitt durch die Klappenschlitze und in den Spalt zwischen dem Abstandshalter und dem Verbinder und sorgt so für eine zusätzliche Verklebung.When the flap is pressed, butyl putty presses through the flap slots and into the gap between the spacer and the connector, thus providing additional bonding.

Die Einsteckverbinder sind vorzugsweise mit relativ dicken Seitenwänden versehen, so daß die Klemmstege und die Klemmnoppen voll durch sie unterstützt sind. Auch die Bodenwandung, die zum Innenraum der Isolierglasscheibe gerichtet ist und die Seitenwände auf ganzer Länge durchgehend verbindet, ist stabil und relativ dick, z. B. 1 mm dick, ausgebildet.The male connectors are preferably provided with relatively thick side walls, so that the clamping webs and the clamping knobs are fully supported by them. Also, the bottom wall, which is directed to the interior of the insulating glass pane and connects the side walls over its entire length, is stable and relatively thick, z. B. 1 mm thick, formed.

Eine weitere Alternative besteht darin, einen elastischen, gering dotierten Kunststoff für den Verbinder einzusetzen und die Seitenwände und/oder dem Boden jeweils durch eingelegte dünne Metallbänder zu stabilisieren, so daß auch stabile Verbinder für kleinste Hohlprofilabmessungen herzustellen sind. Eine Seitenwandriffelung mit geringem Querschnitt-Übermaß ist vorgesehen. Die Metallbänder sind vorzugsweise L-förmig gewinkelt oder in Längsrichtung gewellt. Der kurze L-Steg hat etwa eine Länge, die der Materialdicke entspricht, die etwa 0,3 - 0,6 mm beträgt. Die kurzen L-Schenkel sind zur Bodenplatte des Verbinders gerichtet.Another alternative is to use an elastic, low-doped plastic for the connector and to stabilize the side walls and / or the bottom respectively by inserted thin metal bands, so that also stable connectors for smallest hollow profile dimensions are to be produced. Sidewall corrugation with low cross-sectional excess is provided. The metal bands are preferably L-shaped angled or corrugated in the longitudinal direction. The short L-bar has about a length corresponding to the material thickness, which is about 0.3 - 0.6 mm. The short L-legs are directed to the bottom plate of the connector.

Außer der Wandung, in der die flache Vertiefung ausgebildet ist, die den Längs-Mittenbereich des Verbinders einnimmt, sind weitere Querverbinder in den Endbereichen der thiokolabgedichteten Seite eingeformt, die eine zusätzliche Stabilisierung des Abstandes der Seitenwände bewirken. Diese Verbinderwand kann auch gänzlich durchgehend ausgebildet sein.In addition to the wall in which the shallow recess is formed, which occupies the longitudinal center region of the connector, further transverse connectors are formed in the end regions of the thiokolabgedichtet side, which cause an additional stabilization of the distance of the side walls. This connector wall can also be designed completely through.

Eine weitere Variante besteht darin, daß der Einsteckverbinder ein winkelförmiger Eckverbinder ist und einen massiven Eckkörper aufweist, dessen äußere Kontur etwa der Kontur der Hohlprofilleiste entspricht, in die sich von dem Eckkörper mit einer Stufe abgesetzte Einsteckarme erstrecken, die nach außen gerichtete Vertiefungen aufweisen, an deren endseitigen Kanten die Klappen mit Folienscharnieren angelenkt sind, deren freien Enden nahe der Stufe enden, so daß der unter der Klappe befindliche Butylkitt der abdichtend austritt.Another variant is that the male connector is an angle-shaped corner connector and has a solid corner body whose outer contour corresponds approximately to the contour of the hollow profile strip, in which extending from the corner body stepped with a Einsteckarme, which have outwardly directed recesses on whose end edges, the flaps are hinged with film hinges whose free ends close to the level, so that the butyl putty located under the flap of the sealing emerges.

Zum Erleichtern des Einsteckens sind die Klappen und der Verbinder jeweils endseitig verjüngt ausgebildet.To facilitate the insertion, the flaps and the connector are each tapered end.

Der Verbinder ist vorteilhaft mit Rückhaltelamellen oder nach Art der vorbeschriebenen Rückhaltungen ausgebildet, wobei die Einsteckarme sich unter den Randkehlen und auf der gegenüberliegenden Leistenseite abstützen. Der Eckkörper bildet eine Stufe zu den Einsteckarmen, so daß dadurch die Hohlprofilleistenenden dort abdichtend anstoßen und das Granulat den Spalt nicht passieren kann.The connector is advantageously formed with retaining lamellae or in the manner of the above-described restraints, wherein the insertion arms are supported under the edge groves and on the opposite strip side. The corner body forms a step to the Einsteckarmen, so that thereby the hollow profile strip ends abut sealingly there and the granules can not pass through the gap.

Zwei Glasscheiben einer Isolierglasscheibe sind mit Abstandshalte-Hohlprofilleisten unter Zwischenlage von einem dünnen Butylkittband beabstandet gehalten. Zwischen den Enden der Hohlprofile ist ein axial durchgängiger Einsteckverbinder aus Kunststoff eingebracht.Two glass panes of an insulating glass pane are kept spaced with spacer hollow profile strips with the interposition of a thin Butylkittband. Between the ends of the hollow profiles an axially continuous plug-in connector made of plastic is introduced.

Die Hohlprofilleisten sowie der Einsteckverbinder sind axial durchlässig und mit einem pulverförmigen Absorbermittel gefüllt. Der Innenraum zwischen den Glasscheiben ist gewöhnlich mit einem schweren Gas gefüllt, das durch das Dichtmittel eingeschlossen ist, das in den Randbereich zwischen den Glasscheiben außen anschließend an den Abstandshalter eingebracht ist.
Das Abstandshalterprofil hat zur Dichtung gerichtete abfallende Kehlen an den Kanten, wodurch die Abdichtung noch gesteigert ist.The hollow profile strips and the plug-in connector are axially permeable and filled with a powdery absorber agent. The interior space between the panes of glass is usually filled with a heavy gas trapped by the sealant introduced into the marginal area between the panes of glass exteriorly adjacent to the spacer.
The spacer profile has sloping grooves at the edges directed towards the seal, thereby increasing the seal.

In einer ersten Ausführung des Einsteckverbinders sind die Seitenwand und der Boden durchgehend und weisen mittig einen schmalen Anschlagsteg auf, bis zu dem die Hohlprofilleisten von beiden Seiten aufgeschoben werden. In den beiden Einsteckbereichen sind jeweils Seitenrippen profiliert ausgebildet. Angepasst an die Profilkehlen des Hohlprofils sind auch die entsprechenden Kantenbereiche der Seitenwände jeweils mit einer Hohlkehle versehen. Dort sind jeweils auf beiden Einsteckbereichen die Seitenwände abgesenkt und mit schmalen Rutschhemmstegen besetzt. Zwischen diesen sind jeweils aus weicherem Kunststoffmaterial Stegpuffer eingebracht, die jeweils zu den Verbinderenden gerichtet abfallen. Die Rutschhemmstege ragen über das Außenprofil der Hohlkehle und der Verbinderaußenseite geringfügig hinaus, so dass eingeschoben eine Preßpassung zum lichten Profil der Hohlprofilleiste entsteht. Im mittleren Verbinderlängsbereich befindet sich eine Vertiefung, die mit einem Übermaß an Butylkitt ausgefüllt ist. Beidendig der Vertiefung sind jeweils Klappen mit einem Filmscharnier angelenkt.In a first embodiment of the male connector, the side wall and the bottom are continuous and have in the middle a narrow stop web, to which the hollow profile strips are pushed from both sides. In each of the two insertion regions, side ribs are profiled. Adapted to the profile chamfers of the hollow profile and the corresponding edge portions of the side walls are each provided with a groove. There, the side walls are lowered in each case on both Einsteckbereichen and occupied with narrow anti-slip webs. Between these, each made of softer plastic material web buffer introduced, each of which is directed to the connector ends fall off. The anti-slip webs protrude beyond the outer profile of the groove and the connector outer side slightly, so that inserted an interference fit to the clear profile of the hollow profile strip is formed. In the middle connector longitudinal area is a depression which is filled with an excess of butyl putty. At both ends of the depression flaps are articulated with a film hinge.

Eine Stirnansicht des Einsteckverbinders macht die recht dicken Seitenwände und den durchgehenden Boden deutlich.An end view of the plug-in connector makes the rather thick side walls and the continuous floor clear.

Zwischen den Seitenwänden erstrecken sich nahe an den Einsteckenden Brücken parallel zum Boden. Im Mittenbereich spannt sich von Hohlkehle zu Hohlkehle eine Deckplatte, die die flache Vertiefung zur Außenseite gerichtet enthält, an deren beiden Enden die Klappen zueinander gerichtet angelenkt sind und in der der Butylkitt im Überfluß enthalten ist, so dass die Klappe leicht angedrückt nach oben geneigt stehen, bevor sie in das Hohlprofil eingeschoben sind.Between the sidewalls, near the spigots, bridges extend parallel to the ground. In the middle area, a cover plate spans from groove to groove, which contains the shallow recess directed towards the outside, at the two ends of which the flaps are hinged to one another and in which the butyl cement is contained in excess, so that the flap is slightly pressed upwards before they are inserted into the hollow profile.

Beispielsweise sind in die Klappen jeweils in Querschlitze eingeformt, so dass bei einem festen Andrücken der Klappen bis in eine Parallelstellung zur Deckplatte der Butylkitt aus diesen und aus dem zwischen den freien Klappenden verbleibenden Zwischenraum sowie an den Seitenrändern austritt und sich mit einer jeweils aufgeschobenen Innenwandung der Hohlprofilleiste verbindet und verklebt. Zusätzlich können die Abstandshalteleisten in die Schlitze hinein verstemmt werden, wodurch eine zusätzliche Abdichtung und eine absolute Auszugssicherheit erbracht wird. Vom Verstemmen sind auf dem Hohlprofil Vertiefungen.For example, in the flaps are each formed in transverse slots, so that emerges at a fixed pressing the flaps up to a parallel position to the cover plate of Butylkitt from this and from the remaining between the free flap ends gap and at the side edges and with a deferred inner wall of the Hollow profile strip connects and glued. In addition, the spacer strips can be caulked into the slots, providing additional sealing and security against separation. From caulking are depressions on the hollow profile.

Das untere Niveau von Rutschhemmnoppen liegt etwas unter der Oberkante der Ränder der Seitenwände, und das obere Plateau der Noppen ragt um einige Zehntelmillimeter in das lichte Profil der Hohlprofilleisten, so das sie aufgeschoben jeweils eine leichte Ausbeulung zeigen, wodurch ein sehr zugfester Halt gegen ein Zurückziehen entsteht.The lower level of slip-resistant nubs lies slightly below the upper edge of the edges of the side walls, and the upper plateau of the nubs protrudes by a few tenths of a millimeter into the clear profile of the hollow profile strips, so that they each show a slight bulge, thereby providing a very strong hold against retraction arises.

Auf den Seitenwänden sind bei einer alternative Ausführung neben den Hohlkehlen Rutschhemmnoppen aus weichem Kunststoff aufgespritzt. Diese Noppen sind keil- oder pyramidenstumpfförmig ausgebildet. Sie fallen zu den Verbinderenden hin jeweils flacher als auf der entgegengesetzten Seite ab.On the side walls, in an alternative embodiment, slip-resistant nipples made of soft plastic are sprayed next to the fillets. These nubs are wedge or formed truncated pyramid. They fall to the connector ends each flatter than on the opposite side.

Eine dritte Ausführung des Einsteckverbinders hat im wesentlichen Unterschied zu den vorbeschriebenen Ausführungen eine genaue Paßform, insbesondere des Bodens und der Hohlkehlen in das lichte Profil der Hohlprofilleisten, und eine Formstabilität der Seitenwände, die jeweils eine Stahlblecheinlage enthalten. Die Blechdicke entspricht im Beispiel etwa einem Viertel der Seitenwanddicke. Im Bodenbereich ist das Metallband parallel zum Boden abgewinkelt. Die kurze Schenkellänge entspricht etwa der Banddicke. Die Blecheinlage ermöglicht auch, sehr dünne stabile Seitenwände zu erzeugen, die bei kleinen Verbinderquerschnitten ausreichend Raum zum Durchfluß von Absorberpulver belassen.A third embodiment of the male connector has a precise fit, in particular the bottom and the fillets in the clear profile of the hollow profile strips substantially different from the above-described embodiments, and a dimensional stability of the side walls, each containing a steel insert. The sheet thickness corresponds in the example about a quarter of the side wall thickness. In the floor area, the metal strip is angled parallel to the ground. The short leg length corresponds approximately to the strip thickness. The sheet metal insert also makes it possible to produce very thin, stable side walls which, with small connector cross-sections, leave sufficient space for flow of absorber powder.

Die Klappe ist bei einem Einsteckverbinder mit einer bis zum Anschlag aufgesteckter Hohlprofilleiste heruntergeklappt, so dass der Butylkitt in den Spalt im Stoßbereich ausgetreten ist und ihn abdichtet.The flap is folded down at a plug-in connector with a plugged up to the stop hollow profile strip, so that the Butylkitt has leaked into the gap in the joint area and seals it.

Von dem gewöhnlich massiven Eckkörper eines Eckverbinders, der im wesentlichen als ein Zylinderquadrant ausgebildet ist, erstrecken sich im rechten Winkel zueinander zwei Einsteckarme aus den radialen Flächen. Radial nach außen versetzt sind kürzere und dünnere Klappen mit Folienscharnieren an den Kanten des Quadranten angelenkt, so dass sie jeweils in Richtung auf die Vertiefung in der Außenwandung der benachbarten Einsteckarme verschwenkt werden können. Wenn sie auf diese Weise parallel zum Einsteckarm stehen, sind sie unterfüllt mit Dichtungsmittel zu dieser leicht beabstandet.Of the usually massive corner body of a corner connector, which is formed substantially as a cylinder quadrant, extending at right angles to each other two Einsteckarme from the radial surfaces. Radially outwardly offset shorter and thinner flaps are hinged with foil hinges at the edges of the quadrant, so that they can be pivoted in each case in the direction of the recess in the outer wall of the adjacent Einsteckarme. If they are parallel to the insertion arm this way stand, they are underfilled with sealant to this easily spaced.

Die Einsteckarme ragen in ihrer Längserstreckung über die Klappen hinaus und sind in den überstehenden Bereichen mit Rückhaltelamellen versehen, die im Abstandshalteprofil einen festen Sitz erbringen. Die Lamellen überragen die Außenwandungen.The Einsteckarme protrude in their longitudinal extension beyond the flaps and are provided in the protruding areas with retaining louvers, which provide a tight fit in the spacer profile. The slats project beyond the outer walls.

Die Einsteckarme sowie die Klappen tragen an ihren Enden Führungsschrägen. Die Profile des Eckkörpers, der Einsteckarme und der Rückhaltelamellen sind kehlig ausgebildet, so dass sie zu einem üblichen Abstandshalteprofil innen bzw. außen passen. Der Eckkörper ragt allseitig mit einer Stufe über die Einsteckarme hinaus, so dass dort ein dichter Anschlag für das Abstandshalteprofil ausgebildet ist. In den dortigen Spalt wird abdichtend das Übermaß an Butylkitt gequetscht, das unter der Klappe jeweils eingebracht ist.The Einsteckarme and the flaps carry at their ends guide slopes. The profiles of the corner body, the Einsteckarme and the retaining lamellae are throaty formed so that they fit to a conventional spacer profile inside or outside. The corner body protrudes on all sides with a step beyond the Einsteckarme, so that there is a tight stop for the spacer profile is formed. In the local gap sealing the excess of Butylkitt is squeezed, which is introduced under the flap respectively.

Bei einer weiteren Variante eines Eckverbinders sind die Klappen jeweils einsteckseitig der Vertiefung der Einsteckarme angelenkt, und die freien Klappenden reichen bis nahe an die Stufe, die den Eckkörper begrenzt. Die Klappen legen sich beim Aufschieben der Hohlprofile über die Vertiefung und quetschen Butylkitt in den Stoß an der Stufe.In a further variant of a corner connector, the flaps are hinged each insertion side of the recess of the Einsteckarme, and the free flap ends reach close to the step that limits the corner body. The flaps lie down when pushing the hollow profiles over the depression and squeeze Butylkitt in the shock at the stage.
