Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connecting element, with which one can connect two components together, preferably invisible.
  • the connecting element is intended for connecting two wooden beams.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a connecting element for connecting two components, which can be produced with little effort and cost.
  • the invention proposes a connecting element with the features mentioned in claim 1. Further developments of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.
  • the connecting element according to the invention can be produced very simply and inexpensively.
  • the two parts namely the lower part and the upper part, can be punched out of a metal sheet.
  • the undercuts can be formed.
  • the formation of the undercuts may be performed in part in a work operation with the punching of the sheet material. This results in a connecting element which has the same properties and advantages of known connecting elements, but can be produced significantly cheaper.
  • the lower part has two opposing undercuts, which can also be referred to as outwardly directed undercuts.
  • the upper part has the corresponding inverted undercuts, that is, two mutually facing or in other words inwardly directed undercuts.
  • At least one inwardly directed undercut is formed by bending over an edge of a sheet metal blank. By bending it should be understood that the edge is bent over more than 90 °.
  • both inwardly directed undercuts are formed by bending the opposite edges of the sheet metal blank.
  • At least one outwardly directed undercut is formed by punching out a lug which remains connected to the sheet metal blank and forms a projection.
  • both outwardly directed undercuts are formed in this way.
  • At least one tab remains connected to the sheet metal blank at the side of the blank facing the outer edge of the sheet.
  • the corresponding flap is bent more than 90 °.
  • At least one tab remains connected to the sheet metal blank at the side of the blanking cut away from the outer edge of the sheet metal blank.
  • the flap does not need to be bent by more than 90 °, but it is sufficientnesskröpfen him if the cloth is to form an outwardly directed undercut.
  • At least one outwardly directed undercut to be formed by bending over an edge of the sheet metal blank of the lower part.
  • punched tabs to form undercuts has the advantage that a larger sheet metal plate can be used which provides more space for attachment to the corresponding component.
  • connecting element to be fastened by screws to the respective components, so it may have in training holes for screwing. These holes can be produced by punching in the production of the two fittings.
  • the connecting element proposed by the invention is intended in particular for connecting wooden beams.
  • the upper part is usually screwed to the end face of a wooden beam. It is known that screws screwed into end grain only hold poorly. Therefore, the invention proposes to attach the holes of the upper part in obliquely punched-out rag.
  • the Austanzungen can be made so that the lobes thus formed remain connected to the fitting in the area of the later top. The inclination can be performed as required.
  • the holes of the upper part can be arranged in two rows, which are perpendicular in the mounting position. It can be provided in particular that the holes of both rows are offset from one another by half a vertical hole spacing. As a result, a sufficient number of holes and thus screws can be accommodated on the relatively narrow space between the inwardly directed undercuts.
  • each part that is the upper part and the lower part, diverging to two Lines are lying. This achieves a wedge effect in addition to the stipulations made by the undercuts.
  • the undercuts can be formed by individual projections, which can then lie on the mentioned divergent lines.
  • a stop can be provided between the two parts forming the connection fitting, which stop can also be formed by bending during manufacture from sheet metal. This can ensure that even with occurring tolerances always a correct alignment of the two parts to be fastened is achieved.
  • the connecting element proposed by the invention consists of two fitting parts, namely the lower part shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 and the upper part shown in FIGS. 4 to 6.
  • the lower part, the front side of which is shown in FIG. 1 is made of a sheet metal blank which, in the illustrated example, has the shape of a rectangle.
  • the plate element of the sheet metal blank contains a number of holes 1, through which the lower part is screwed or nailed to a first component.
  • the orientation is chosen such that the orientation to be seen in FIG. 1 corresponds to the actual orientation. What's up in Figure 1 is also at the top of the assembly.
  • the plate element contains two rows of Austanzmaschine 2, which are formed so that a separation of the sheet metal blank long on three sides of a rectangle.
  • Both rows of Austanzoder 2 are each on a line extending obliquely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the sheet metal blank, the lines of both rows of Austanzungen 2 diverge.
  • the remaining between the punching lines sheet material is pressed as a rag from the back 3 of the sheet metal blank forward and then bent.
  • the undercuts of the two rows of Austanzoder 2 are facing away from each other, or in other words, are directed outwards, ie in the direction of the adjacent longitudinal edge 7 of the lower part 5.
  • the holes 1 for screwing the lower part are outside of the lobes 4, which form opposite the front face 8 of the lower part 5 projections.
  • FIGS. 4 to 6 show the upper part from the rear side. Also, the upper part is made of a piece of sheet metal, which has the shape of a trapezoid in the initial state. Both longitudinal edges 10 are bent over the entire length of the upper part 11 by 180 degrees, so that on the inside of the longitudinal edges 10 each have an undercut 12 is formed, whose width corresponds to the thickness of the sheet material of the lower part 5.
  • mounting holes 13 are formed in the upper part, which lie within punched-out lobes 14.
  • Figure 4 shows only two such holes 13.
  • the lobes 14 surrounded by the punching lines 15 on three sides of a rectangle are bent inwardly, that is the front of the upper 11, at an angle of about 30 degrees, see the longitudinal section of the figure 6.
  • the axis of the holes 13 extends obliquely to the rear side 16 of the upper part 11th
  • the upper part 11 is inserted with its rear side in a recess of the end of a beam and screwed there.
  • the screws are lost then obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the beam and thus obliquely to the fibrillation of the wood so that they hold better there.
  • the upper part can be connected from above to the lower part 5 in that the undercuts 12 of the upper part engage behind the undercuts 6 of the lower part. Due to the divergent course of the undercuts 6 of the lower part 5 and the undercuts 12 of the upper part 11, the pushing from above is possible. Once all undercuts abut each other, the attachment is done.
  • the lower part 5 in the region of its lower edge on a right-angled forward turn 40, which forms a stop.
  • This turn 40 cooperates with the lower edge 41 of the upper part 16.
  • the bend 40 corresponds in the opposite upper edge of the lower part 5, a recess 42 which is intended to ensure that no waste produced during punching from a sheet.
  • the undercuts of the base are present on individual projections formed by tabs 4.
  • the undercuts of the upper part are formed on bent outer edges of the sheet metal blank. A reverse training or a combined training in the two types is also possible.
  • FIG. 7 shows the front view of a lower part 25 of a second embodiment.
  • the tabs 4 are formed by Austanzungen 22. While in the embodiment according to Figure 1 to 6, the tabs 2 remain connected to the outer edge 7 of the sheet metal blank of the lower part 5 facing side of the Austanzung 2 with the sheet metal blank, stay in the embodiment of Figure 7, the tabs 24 on the side facing away from the side edge 7 Page of 22 pronunciation with the sheet metal connected.
  • the tabs 24 are not bent to the front, but bent out and bent, the bend is optionally formed parallel to the front side 28 of the lower part, or at an angle of, for example, 30 degrees, as can be seen in FIG. Incidentally, the lower part of FIG. 7 can be produced just as easily as the lower part of FIGS. 1 to 3.
  • FIG. 8 shows the associated upper part 21 this time from the front side.
  • the openings 13 are arranged for screwing in the fastening screws in two rows, this time the holes 13 of the one row are offset from the holes 13 of the other row.
  • the offset is half the distance between two holes in a row.
  • Each hole 13 is arranged on a separate flap, which is this time surrounded by a circular-shaped Austanzung.
  • the flaps are bent out in the same manner as the flaps 14 of the embodiment of FIGS. 4 to 6.
  • the upper part 21 is pushed onto the lower part 25 from above, so that the bent edges 20 of the upper part 21 engage behind the bent-out tabs 24 of the lower part 25 ,
  • the result is shown in the partial section of FIG.
  • the bend of the tabs 24 need not be a parallel offset.
  • the bent edges 20 need not be bent exactly U-shaped. By appropriate design of the shapes and dimensions can be effected here a backlash-free connection.
  • FIGS. 10 and 11 show the front view and the edge view of a lower part 35, which may cooperate with the upper part 21 of Figure 8 or with the upper part of Figures 4 to 6 together. While in the previous embodiments, the undercuts of the lower part were always formed by punched out lobes, so that outside the undercuts on both sides is still room for mounting holes, in the lower part 35 of Figure 10 and 11, the outwardly directed undercut 36 by a bend of the longitudinal edges 37 of the sheet metal blank formed.
  • the mounting holes 31 are therefore arranged in the region between the two undercuts.
  • the bend of the longitudinal edges 37 to form the undercut 36 is again parallel to the back 33 of the base 35 in the example shown, but this is only intended as an example. Of course, a bend in the shape of Figure 9 would also be possible here.
