Abstract
The invention concerns a component ( 1 ) for building wall elements or the like, comprising a cuboidal base element ( 2 ) that has one or more grooves ( 11 ) at least in one part of its periphery ( 5 - 10 ). A strip-shaped spring is used as connecting element ( 3, 4 ) in said grooves ( 11 ) to ensure positive-fit connection of adjacent base elements ( 2 ) to one another. This makes it possible to produce a groove-spring type of connection between adjacent components ( 1 ).
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A component for building wall-, ceiling-, floor-, supporting-, bounding- and partition wall elements, etc., comprised of a cuboid base element ( 2 ) having, at least on one part of its bounding faces ( 5 - 10 ), one or a plurality of grooves ( 11 ), whereby a strip-shaped spring can be inserted as connecting element(s) ( 3 , 4 ) into said grooves ( 11 ) to achieve a positive fit connection between connecting base elements ( 2 ), characterized in that the base element ( 2 ) has at least two parallel running grooves ( 11 ) which run continuously over the entire circumference of connecting bounding laces ( 5 , 9 , 6 , 10 and/or 5 , 8 , 6 , 7 ), which connect at respective right angles, and in that the grooves ( 11 ) cross at right angles at the upper bounding face ( 5 ) and the lower bounding face ( 6 ) of the base element ( 2 ), and it that the grooves that cross at right angles at the upper bounding face ( 5 ) and the lower bounding face ( 6 ) of the base element ( 2 ) run continuously over the entire circumference of all four connecting bounding faces ( 5 , 9 , 6 , 10 and/or 5 , 8 , 6 , 7 ) which connect at respective right angles.
2 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , characterized in that the width (D) of the segments ( 12 ) of the bounding faces ( 5 - 10 ) remaining between two grooves ( 11 ) is twice the size of the width (E) of the segment ( 13 ) that remains between the edge of a bounding face ( 5 - 10 ) and the facing grooves ( 11 ).
3 . The component in accordance with claim 1 or 2 , characterized in that the width (D) of the segments ( 12 ) remaining between the two grooves ( 11 ) corresponds to four times the width (S) of a groove ( 11 ) and the width (E) of the segment ( 13 ) between the edge of a bounding face ( 5 - 10 ) and the facing groove ( 11 ) corresponds to twice the width (S) of a groove ( 11 ).
4 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , characterized in that the connecting element ( 3 , 4 ) can be inserted into the groove ( 11 ) with a positive fit.
5 . The component in accordance with claim 1 and one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the length (F) of the connecting elements ( 3 ) to be inserted at the upper bounding face ( 5 ) and/or the lower bounding face ( 6 ) of the base element ( 2 ) corresponds to the total length (L) or the total width (B) of said bounding face ( 5 , 6 ).
6 . The component in accordance with claim 1 and one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the length (G) of the connecting elements ( 4 ) to be inserted at the lateral bounding faces ( 7 - 10 ) of the base element ( 2 ) corresponds to the height (H) of the base element ( 2 ) less twice the depth (T) of a groove ( 11 ).
7 . The component in accordance with claim 1 and one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the ratio between the total length (L) and the total width (B) of the base element ( 2 ) is 1.5 to 1.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
