Abstract

Mechanische Verbindung für Paneele mit folgenden Merkmalen:
a) Die Paneele (1, 2) weisen an ihren miteinander zu verbindenden Seiten (3, 4) eine Profilierung auf, über welche die benachbarten ersten und zweiten Paneele (1, 2) in der Montagelage miteinander verriegelbar sind;
b) Eine Verriegelungsfeder (19) ist an dem ersten Paneel (1) in eine Haltenut (18) eingesetzt und ist beim Verriegeln der Paneele (1, 2) teilweise hinter eine Verriegelungskante (21) des benachbarten zweiten Paneels (1, 2) verlagerbar;
c) Die Verriegelungsfeder (19) besitzt einen Sperrkörper (20), der dafür ausgebildet ist, von einer Freigabeposition in eine Verriegelungsposition verlagert zu werden, um in der Verriegelungsposition hinter die Verriegelungskante (21) zu greifen;
d) Der Sperrkörper (20) ist über wenigstens einen federnden Arm (24) mit wenigstens einem Halter (25) verbunden, der in der Haltenut (18) gehalten ist;
e) Der Sperrkörper (20), der wenigstens eine federnde Arm (24) und der sich an den wenigstens einen Arm (24) anschließende wenigstens eine Halter (25) sind insgesamt einstückig ausgebildet;
f) Der federnde Arm (24) befindet sich in der Freigabeposition der Verriegelungsfeder (19) in einer inneren, vorgespannten Position;
g) Der wenigstens eine federnde Arm (24) ist unter dem Einfluss einer in Längsrichtung der Haltenut (18) auf den Sperrkörper (20) wirkenden Auslösekraft aus der inneren, vorgespannten Position lösbar, so dass der Sperrkörper (20) unter dem Einfluss der Rückstellkraft des wenigstens einen federnden Arms (24) teilweise aus der Haltenut (18) heraus in die Verriegelungsposition verlagerbar ist.

Mechanical connection for panels with the following features:
a) The panels (1, 2) have at their sides to be joined together (3, 4) on a profiling, via which the adjacent first and second panels (1, 2) in the mounting position are locked together;
b) A locking spring (19) is inserted into a retaining groove (18) on the first panel (1) and is partly displaceable behind a locking edge (21) of the adjacent second panel (1, 2) when the panels (1, 2) are locked ;
c) the locking spring (19) has a locking body (20) adapted to be displaced from a release position to a locking position to engage in the locking position behind the locking edge (21);
d) the locking body (20) is connected via at least one resilient arm (24) with at least one holder (25) which is held in the retaining groove (18);
e) The locking body (20), the at least one resilient arm (24) and the at least one arm (24) adjoining at least one holder (25) are integrally formed as a whole;
f) the resilient arm (24) is in the release position of the locking spring (19) in an inner, biased position;
g) The at least one resilient arm (24) can be released from the inner, prestressed position under the influence of a release force acting on the locking body (20) in the longitudinal direction of the retaining groove (18), so that the locking body (20) under the influence of the restoring force the at least one resilient arm (24) is partially displaceable out of the retaining groove (18) into the locking position.
