In the drawings, the same or similar elements and / or parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that apart from a new idea each.

FIGS. 1 to 4 show schematically in three-dimensional representation broken corpus 10 of two Verkehrsleitwandelementen 1, 2 and corresponding connector parts or connecting devices, which are respectively arranged at the ends of Verkehrsleitwandelemente 1, 2. In the context of the invention, a connecting device comprises connector parts or connecting parts 12.

The connecting device arranged in the end piece 3 of the respective traffic-guiding wall 1 or 2 will be described below.

The connecting parts 12 are connected to each other in the assembly of a traffic control wall, which consists of a plurality of Verkehrsleitwandelementen 1, 2. The connecting parts 12 are preferably made of steel. They include a base plate 14, a front plate 16 and a locking portion 18. The locking portion 18 remains in its height behind the upper edge of the body 10 back and is in the illustrated embodiment according to the FIGS. 1 and 2 provided with upwardly facing thorns 22. In the embodiment according to the Figures 3 and 4 instead of the mandrels mandrel receptacles 26 are provided, which are connected to corresponding spines of a cross piece 24.

It is provided in the embodiments, a crosspiece 24 whose length is twice the locking portion 18 and twice the extent of the locking portion 18, wherein both halves of the crosspiece 24 each with two mandrel receptacles 26 in the example of FIGS. 1 and 2 are provided, which are formed in the illustrated embodiment by bores in the transverse piece 24 formed from a square tube. The respective bore of the mandrel receptacles 26 is in FIG. 1 and 2 however hidden by the material and thus not visible. Mandrel 22 and mandrel receptacle 26 are arranged correspondingly, so that the respective mandrel 22 engages during assembly in the respective mandrel receptacle 26.

In the embodiment of Figures 3 and 4 is the mandrel receptacle 26 can be seen in the locking portion 18 and also the mandrel 22 which is inserted into the mandrel holder 26. In the embodiment of Figures 3 and 4 At each end piece 3 or at the connecting part 12 of each Verkehrsleitwandelements two mandrel receptacles 26 and two corresponding mandrels 22 are provided. This increases the stability of the compound. The crosspiece 24 has a height that causes an alignment of the upper edge 20 'of the crosspiece 24 when placed on the locking portion 18 with the upper edge 20 of the body 10. This applies to the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 4 ,

The end plate 16 of the connecting part 12 is provided with a bolt 30, the end plate 16 of the adjacent connecting part is provided with a slot 32, wherein bolt 30 and slot 32 cooperate with each other when inserting the bolt in the slot.

In the illustrated embodiments of the FIGS. 1 to 5 each end plate 16 is provided with both a cross-sectionally T-shaped bolt 30 and a slot 32, wherein bolt 30 and slot 32 extend eccentrically along the end plate 16. It could alternatively be considered an embodiment in which the end plate is formed at one end of a Verkehrsleitwandelements with a slot 32 and at the other end of the Verkehrsleitwandelements with a bolt 30. The variants shown in the FIGS. 1 to 5 However, they are preferred because, on the one hand, a rotationally symmetrical embodiment is provided, during which it does not matter which side or here which end part of the traffic-conducting wall element is connected to the end part of the other traffic-conducting wall element. Both sides always match each other. On the other hand, a very good connection of the traffic control wall elements is possible by two connecting elements on each end face.

The cross piece 24 is correspondingly provided with holes 34 which allow the passage of bolts 36 which can be screwed or connected with a threaded bore 38 in the locking portion 18.

In the in the FIGS. 1 and 2 In the embodiments shown, the body 10 consists of concrete or essentially of concrete into which the connecting device or the connecting parts or the connector is / are integrated. In the in the Figures 3 and 4 the embodiment shown, the body consists essentially of steel or preferably has U-shaped bent steel or sheet metal elements. These elements, which can also be referred to as reinforcing struts, are preferably welded to the connecting device or the connectors, connecting parts or connector parts. It is also, as in FIG. 5 is shown, a guardrail 41 is provided, which may be made of steel or another metallic and stable material. The guardrail 41 can also be considered as a reinforcement strut. In the embodiments according to the Figures 3 and 4 the mandrels 22 are attached to the cross piece 24. The mandrels 22 engage in mandrel receptacles 26, which are provided in the locking portion 18.

FIG. 5 shows a particularly preferred embodiment, in which a play-free connection or a play-free holding together of two adjacent traffic control wall elements is shown. The introduced into the slot 32, which tapers conically downward, introduced latch 30 comes when inserting into engagement with two elevations 40, which are also conical down, but partially rising downwards. In other words, the elevations are provided there on a face plate in the region of the slot 32, in particular welded, in the undercut cavity of the face plate. The survey thus shows away from the adjacent traffic control wall element. As a result, a force is exerted on the bolt and thus the adjacent traffic control wall, which is directed to the traffic control wall to which the survey 40 is mounted. Herewith Thus, two adjacent traffic control walls are moved towards each other. There is thus a solid and backlash-free connection.

In order to enable a release of a Verkehrsleitwandelements from a Verkehrsleitwand, the slot 32 is downwardly again conically opening, below the engaging portion of the survey 40 with the bolt 30. In addition, the survey 40 tapers down again to a Solve to simplify.
