A connector for fastening an angle iron to a profile section has a connector element configured so as to embrace the profile section, and a single connecting member connecting the connector element, the profile section and the angle iron, wherein the connector element is substantially U-shaped and has a base and two legs configured for embracing the profile section.
Description
- The invention described and claimed hereinbelow is also described in German
Patent Application DE 10 2006 004 931.4 filed Feb. 3, 2006. This German Patent Application, whose subject matter is incorporated here by reference, provides the basis for a claim of priority of invention under 35 U.S.C. 119(a)-(d). - The present generally relates to cross-connectors.
- More particularly, it relates to a connector for fastening an angle iron to a profile section, and also to a corresponding connection assembly.
- Such connectors are known for instance from French Patent Disclosure FR 2 033 601. In it, a connector 3 is shown with which an angle iron 2 is fastened to a
profile section 1, with the angle iron crossing the profile section. Theprofile section 1 penetrates the connector 3, so that the connector embraces the profile section. The angle iron 2 rests on the outside 3.2 of the connector. Simultaneously, a hook 4 embraces theprofile section 1, and a threaded portion that the angle iron 2 penetrates is provided on the hook 4. With the aid of a screw 5, which engages the threaded portion and is braced on the angle iron, the entire connection assembly is held together. The hook 4 and the screw 5 together form the single connecting means by which the connection assembly is connected. - The disadvantage of this connector is that the profile section on the side facing away from the angle iron is not accessible, since the profile section penetrates the angle iron. Hence it cannot be used if a roller track, for instance, is provided on that side of the profile section.
- Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a cross-connection which eliminates the disadvantages of the prior art.
- More particularly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a cross-connector in which the profile section is accessible on the side facing away from the angle iron.
- This object is attained in that the connector is embodied as substantially U-shaped, having a base and two legs for embracing the profile section. The legs can for instance be inclined toward one another in order to embrace the profile section. In the remaining space between the legs, the profile section thus remains accessible.
- It may be provided that the base of the connector has a joint, preferably an elastic joint, which is located between the two legs, and the joint axis is oriented essentially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the profile section. By means of the joint, the legs can be pivoted relative to one another, so that the profile section can be inserted into the connector without major expenditure of force. In particular, the connector can be mounted at any longitudinal position of the profile section without having to be slipped on from the direction of the face end of the profile section.
- The joint can be implemented by providing that two connector halves are mounted rotatably on one shaft. However, consideration can also be given to providing a so-called film hinge, that is, a narrow portion transverse to the joint axis, in which portion the connector has substantially greater elasticity than in the remainder of the connector. The film hinge extends in the direction of the joint axis, preferably across the entire connector.
- In a refinement of the invention, at least two rocker protrusions for bracing the angle iron can be located on the base of the connector, on the side facing away from the legs, and the joint is located between the rocker protrusions. It is assured in this way that the angle iron will not hinder the pivoting motions of the connector about its joint.
- It can furthermore be provided that between the legs and between the rocker protrusions, the base of the connector has an opening, which is can be penetrated by the connecting means. In this embodiment of the connector, the angle iron preferably also has an opening, and the connecting means penetrates both openings and forces the base of the connector in the direction of the angle iron. As a result, the legs of the connector, because of the joint and the rocker protrusions, are moved toward one another until such time as they rest firmly on the profile section and securely embrace it. The connecting means in this case preferably includes a screw bolt.
- It is also proposed that the opening in the connector, for engagement with the connecting means, has a thread or a recess for receiving a threaded insert in a manner secured against relative rotation. As a result, the screw bolt of the connecting means can simply be screwed in, without requiring that a separate nut or the like be prevented from rotating using a second wrench. The assembly is accordingly simplified.
- It can furthermore be provided that the base of the connector, on the side facing away from the legs, has at least one bracing protrusion for bracing the profile section. The bracing protrusion is intended to prevent the profile section, during the closure of the connecting means, from hindering the pivoting motions of the connector about its joint.
- Moreover, at least one retention protrusion for embracing the profile section can be provided on each of the two legs of the connector, on the end facing away from the base, and the retention protrusions are diametrically opposite one another. This embodiment is advantageously employed in conjunction with profile sections which have undercuts that are adapted to the retention protrusions. As a result, an especially secure hold of the connector on the profile section can be assured. Moreover, this combination has the advantage that the connector does not protrude past the profile section on the free side of the profile section.
- The base of the connector, on the side toward the legs, can have at least one detent protrusion for engagement with adapted detent recesses of the profile section. As a result, a form-locking connection in the longitudinal direction of the profile section is made between the profile section and the connector. The connector is thus secured in a simple way against shifting in the longitudinal direction of the profile section.
- The connector can be embodied in one piece, preferably injection-molded from plastic. What is suitable for this purpose above all is the variant having the elastic joint. This kind of connector is especially economical. As the plastic, polyamide, preferably PA66, is especially well suited, since this material has suitable elasticity and strength. The plastic is preferably modified such that it has an increased electrical conductivity, in order to assure an electrically conductive connection between the profile section and the angle iron. This is intended to prevent electrostatic charges, which could damage electronic components, for instance, that are conveyed on the profile section.
- The invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a connection assembly of the invention; -
FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the connector and the connecting means of the connection assembly ofFIG. 1 ; and -
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the connector ofFIG. 2 . - In
FIG. 1 , a connection assembly of the invention is identified very generally byreference numeral 1. It includes aconnector 10, aprofile section 30, and anangle iron 40. Theprofile section 30 is embodied as elongated U-shaped rails of sheet steel. In the interior of theprofile section 30, a plurality ofrollers 31 for forming a roller track are supported rotatably. Theangle iron 40 has an elongatedlateral guide 41, which extends parallel to theprofile section 30. With thelateral guide 41, material to be conveyed, which is transported on the roller track, is guided laterally. Theangle iron 40 is fastened to theconnector 10 with the aid of theconnecting means 50 on theprofile section 30. - The
connector 10 as shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 is embodied as substantially U-shaped, and overall it is symmetrical to the plane of symmetry S. On itsbase 12, twolegs 11 are provided, havingretention protrusions 19 diametrically opposite one another that engage twocomplementary undercuts 32 in theprofile section 30, so that the connector embraces theprofile section 30. Theprofile section 30 is furthermore braced, on theside 13 of the base toward thelegs 11, on four bracingprotrusions 18. - The
angle iron 40 rests on theconnector 10, on theside 14 of the base facing away from thelegs 11. To that end, tworocker protrusions 17 are provided, which are created by twoflat faces 24 that are inclined toward one another. The position of theangle iron 40 relative to theprofile section 30 at a right angle is defined by four alignment lugs 23 on the tworocker protrusions 17. The use of four alignment lugs 23 in principle also makes it possible to orient theangle iron 40 parallel to theprofile section 30, counter to what is shown inFIG. 1 . - Between the
legs 11 and therocker protrusions 17, a joint 15 is provided, whose joint axis extends in the axis of symmetry S, being aligned parallel with theprofile section 30. The joint 15 is embodied elastically, on the order of afilm hinge 16. For this purpose, agroove 25 is provided, which extends in the direction of the joint axis over the entire connector, thus creating a region of increased elasticity in the base. - A circular-
cylindrical opening 20 for the connecting means is also provided in the middle of the base and is adjoined by a concentricsquare recess 21 for a threaded insert. The length of the side of therecess 21 is greater than the diameter of the opening. - The connecting means 50 includes a
screw bolt 51, with athread 52, and a threadedinsert 53, with acomplementary thread 54. The threadedinsert 53 is located in therecess 21 in a manner fixed against relative rotation. Thescrew bolt 51 is screwed into the threadedinsert 53 from the diametrically opposite side through anopening 42 in theangle iron 40 and through theopening 20 in thebase 12. Theopening 42 in the angle iron is embodied as an oblong slot, so that thelateral guide 41 can be placed in various positions. - Upon assembly of the connector, the procedure is as follows:
- 1) Inserting the threaded
insert 53 into therecess 21 in theconnector 10. - 2) Clipping the
connector 10 onto theprofile section 30, so that thedetent protrusion 22 on the connector engages one of the plurality of detent recesses 33 on the profile section. - 3) Inserting the
angle iron 40 between the alignment lugs 23, so that it rests on therocker protrusions 17. - 4) Screwing the
screw bolt 51 into the threaded insert. - In the final step, the
screw bolt 51 is rotated firmly until such time as the two faces 24, originally inclined relative to one another, rest flatly on theangle iron 40. The inclination of the two faces 24 relative to one another has been selected such that theretention protrusions 19 on theconnector 10 now engage theundercuts 32 on theprofile section 30 with a predetermined clamping force. - It will be understood that each of the elements described above, or two or more together, may also find a useful application in other types of constructions differing from the types described above.
- While the invention has been illustrated and described as embodied in a cross connector, and a mounting assembly using the same, it is not intended to be limited to the details shown, since various modifications and structural changes may be made without departing in any way from the spirit of the present invention.
- Without further analysis, the foregoing will so fully reveal the gist of the present invention that others can, by applying current knowledge, readily adapt it for various applications without omitting features that, from the standpoint of prior art, fairly constitute essential characteristics of the generic or specific aspects of this invention.
