Figures 1 and2 represent an improved T-joint 1 according to the invention which is provided with aprofiled body 2 which is made for example but not necessarily of aluminium and which, in this case, is provided with twowings far ends ribs 7 bent towards each other on their far ends so as to formlongitudinal grooves 8. - In the above-mentioned
body 2 is also provided aguide 9 in the form of a hole which extends through thisbody 2, in the axial direction X-X' of the profiledbody 2. - The above-mentioned
guide 9 has a step-like course in the axial direction, in other words it has afirst part 10 with a diameter D1 and asecond part 11 with a diameter D2 which is smaller than the above-mentioned first diameter D1, such that at the transition between theseparts 10 and 11 astop 12 is formed. - In the
guide 9 is provided apin 13 whose diameter is somewhat smaller than the above-mentioned diameter D2 and which is pushed along thefirst part 10 into thesecond part 11 of theguide 9 and which is provided with an outward directedcollar 14 on one far end whose diameter is larger than the diameter D2 and which can be pushed up against the above-mentionedstop 12, such that, in this position, thepin 13 protrudes from thebody 2 with a certain part having a length L on one far end of theguide 9. - The
pin 13 is maintained in its extreme rest position by means of aspring 15 which is provided in arecess 16 in thepin 13 with one far end and which is clamped by means of acover plate 17 which covers the other far end of theguide 9 and which is fixed to thebody 2. - In the given example, the
cover plate 17 is fixed to thebody 2 as the above-mentioned far end of theguide 9 is made with a somewhat larger diameter so as to form a shoulder on which thecover plate 17 rests and whereby thecover plate 17 is being kept in place by providingmechanical deformations 18 in the material of thebody 2 round thecover plate 17. - Finally, according to the invention, the above-mentioned
pin 13 is provided with one or several, in this case twospringy elements 20 at its crosscutfree end 19 which, in this case, but not necessarily, are part of anaccessory 21 provided on said crosscut farend 19, whichaccessory 21 is made in the shape of astrip 22, preferably of a resilient material, such as for example stainless steel, and whereby the above-mentionedspringy elements 20 are formed of the free ends of thestrip 22 which are bent slantingly towards thebody 2, as if it were to form a sort of barbs. - It is clear that, according to the invention, the above-mentioned
springy elements 20 can also be made in the form of separate elements provided on the free ends of the above-mentionedstrip 22. - As is represented in greater detail in
figures 3 and 4 , the above-mentionedstrip 22 is in this case provided on the crosscut farend 19 of the above-mentionedpin 13 by means of a mechanical deformation of the material of thispen 13, but it is clear that it can be fixed in many other ways, such as for example by means of a wringing fit, gluing, screwing, snapping in, a locking pin or the like. - The use of an improved T-
joint 1 according to the invention is represented infigures 5 to 7 and it is very simple and as follows. - In order to connect two
struts joint 1 is pushed in thestrut 23 in the axial direction X-X', whereby ribs 25 on opposite walls on the inside of thestrut 23 serve as guides which are held in thegrooves 8 of thewings - The T-
joint 1 is hereby, with itspen 13 directed outward, pushed entirely in thestrut 23 until theend face 26 coincides with the far end of thestrut 23. - The T-
joint 1 is subsequently locked in thestrut 23 in the axial direction, for example by means of glue, screws or the like, not represented in the figures. - In order to subsequently provide for a connection between the
struts pin 13 must be pushed in theguide 9 of thebody 2 by exerting a force in the opposite sense of the force exerted on thepin 13 by the above-mentionedspring 16. - Since, in practice, the
strut 23 will have to be provided between twostruts 24 standing at right angles on the latter, an improved T-joint 1 according to the invention will have to be provided on the other far end of saidstrut 23 as well, which is not represented in the figures for clarity's sake and whose use is analogous to that of the given T-joint 1. - As soon as the
pen 13 has been pushed in entirely, thestrut 23 can be pushed between twostruts 24 until thepin 13, under the influence of the resilience, dashes into an opening 27 in thesecond strut 24. - As the above-mentioned
springy elements 20 unfold as soon as thepin 13 has been pushed through the opening 27, they will hook behind thewalls 28 of thissecond strut 24. - Thanks to its simple construction, an improved T-joint according to the invention can be assembled and mounted in a fast and simple manner, since the orientation of the
pin 13 in relation to thebody 2 does not matter. -
Figures 8 to 10 represent a possible variant of an improved T-joint 1 according to the invention whereby thebody 2, and in particular thewing 3, is made in two parts, with afirst part 29 which is fixed in thestrut 23 and asecond part 30 which can move in relation to the above-mentionedfirst part 29 respectively. - Between the above-mentioned
parts screw 31 with acountersunk head 32. - In this embodiment of a T-
joint 1, therespective wings ribs 7 bent towards each other. - The
other wing 4 is made as an L-shapedprofiled part 33 which, as represented infigure 10 , is held between arib 34 in thestrut 23 and awall 35 of thisstrut 23 when mounted. - The far end of
wing 3 rests against asecond rib 5 in thestrut 23, whereas themobile part 30 is provided against the above-mentionedwall 35 of thisstrut 23. - In order to prevent an axial movement of the T-
joint 1, the adjustingscrew 31 is tightened, such that thepart 30 is pushed away from thepart 29 and thebody 2 is clamped between therib 36 and thewall 35. - The
pin 13 is provided with ashank 37 and protrudes from thebody 2 with thespringy elements 20 on one far end, whereas theshank 37 protrudes from the other far end. - Near its free end, the above-mentioned
shank 37 is provided with locking means 38 which prevent an axial movement in one direction and which in particular form a stop to the axial movement of thepin 13 under the influence of thespring 15. - In this case, the above-mentioned locking means 38 are formed of a
locking ring 39 provided in acircumferential groove 40 in the above-mentioned rear end of thepin 13. - Preferably, but not necessarily, the locking means 38 can be adjusted, for example since one or several
circumferential grooves 41 are provided, such that the above-mentionedlocking ring 39 can also be provided in other grooves, depending on whether a sealing is either or not used between thestruts - Finally,
figures 11 and12 represent another embodiment of an improved T-joint 1 according to the invention, whereby the above-mentionedaccessory 21 is made in the shape of aring 42 of a resilient material, such as for example stainless steel, which in this case has twospringy wings 43 as springy elements and which, as represented in greater detail infigures 13 and 14 , is pushed over aprotrusion 44 on the crosscut far end of thepin 13 and which is locked by the mechanical deformation of saidprotrusion 44 after theaccessory 21 has been provided. - It is clear that the above-mentioned
accessory 21 can be made in all sorts of materials which preferably but not necessarily have some resilience, such as for example plastic, spring steel or the like. - According to the invention, the above-mentioned springy elements can be made in one piece with the above-mentioned
accessory 21 or with thepin 13, or they can be made as separate thereof. - The present invention is by no means restricted to the embodiments given as an example and represented in the accompanying drawings. The scope of the invention is defined in the appended claims.
