Definitions

the invention relates to a securing element for components of a play kit, which can be connected to one another by means of undercut grooves and pins that fit into them.
the invention is therefore based on the object of creating a possibility of absorbing the forces directed in the longitudinal direction of the grooves in connections.
the securing element consists of two parts, each part being provided with a bar which engages in the groove of the components, partially filling the groove profile and wedge-shaped in the longitudinal direction, and in that the two bars with their bars are pushed together in the groove the components can be fixed.
both parts of the securing element are inserted into the undercut groove of the component and the strips of the two parts, with their weaker end faces, are shifted towards each other. Due to the wedge shape of the strips, both parts are braced in the undercut groove of the component, so that a firm clamp fit is achieved.
the securing element now serves as a stop for a module that can be inserted into the longitudinal groove of the component in a light sliding fit provided with a connecting pin. With another securing element fixed behind this module, it is secured against displacement in all directions. It is thus possible to set precise distances that remain constant even with high forces.
the one long side of the strips can be undercut and the other long side can be flat.
the flat long sides of the strips form the sliding surfaces, while the undercut long sides of the strips completely fill the groove profile. Both strips thus complement each other to form an undercut connecting means on both sides, so that, in addition to the jamming, a form-fitting connection secured against lifting is also created.
the strip at its strongest point can be somewhat narrower than the inside width of the narrowest point of the undercut groove of the component.
This design makes it possible to insert the two parts of the securing element from the outside into the undercut groove of the component. The time-consuming insertion from the front of the groove, particularly in the case of very long components, is therefore not necessary.
the securing element can also be retrofitted between two blocks that are already arranged at a distance from one another.
the parts of the securing element can have a grip plate resting on the outer surface of the components.
the plate which serves as an insertion limitation, facilitates handling of the securing element due to the support on the components.
part of the securing element can be designed as an angle, each leg of the angle being provided with a strip.
This special design of the securing element also enables end connections of two components to be secured and the angular position to be additionally supported. Very stable frame constructions, for example for toy vehicles, can thus be produced.
the two parts 3a, 3b forming the securing element 3 are inserted such that the strips 4 are received by the groove 1.
the profile of the strip 4 only partially fills the groove profile and is additionally wedge-shaped in the longitudinal direction.
the parts 3a, 3b of the securing element are provided with a plate 5 resting on the outer surface of the components 2, the outer surface of which can be corrugated.
the opposing and serving as a sliding surface long sides 6 of the strips 4 of the two parts have a taper of about 2 degrees in their longitudinal direction.
the strips 4 are twice as long as the plates 5, so that when the plates 5 are pushed together, the strips 4 overlap within the plates.
the longitudinal sides 7 of the strips 4 facing away from one another are undercut.
the two strips 4 thus complement one another to form an undercut connecting means, the external dimension of which can be enlarged by approximately 15% compared to the profile of the groove 1 when pushed together.
a strong jamming can be achieved, so that the securing element 3 can be immovably fixed at any desired point in the groove 1 of the component 2.
the strongest point of the individual bar 4 is somewhat narrower than the inside width of the narrowest point of the undercut groove 1 of the component. The addition of this strongest point with the weakest point of the other bar results in the excess of the groove profile required for jamming.
a securing element is used for the corner connection, in which part of the securing element 3 'is designed as an angle and each leg of the angle has a strip 4.
a further part 3b is pushed onto each leg of the angle, so that the connection between the securing element 3 'and component 2 is produced by the overlapping strips 4 in each case.
a module 9 equipped with an undercut connecting pin 8 is inserted into the longitudinal groove 1 of one component 2 with a slight sliding fit until it rests on the angle securing element 3 '.
a further securing element 3 is then clamped behind this module 9. This results in an accurate, even withstand high forces distance fixation.
