Wall system

Abstract

A wall system has a plurality of intrinsically rigid wall elements, wherein the wall elements have face ends and are magnetically joinable to one another at the face ends.

1 . A wall system, comprising a plurality of intrinsically rigid wall elements, said wall elements having face ends, said wall elements being magnetically joinable to one another at said face ends.  
   
   
       2 . A wall system as defined in  claim 1 , wherein each of said wall elements is provided on one of said face ends with an element selected from the group consisting of at least one permanent magnet and at least one steel plate, and on an opposed face end, at a same level, is provided with an element selected from the group consisting of at least one permanent magnet and at least one steel plate.  
   
   
       3 . A wall system as defined in  claim 2 , wherein said at least one magnet and at least one steel plate are let into said face ends of said wall elements.  
   
   
       4 . A wall system as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said wall elements are joinable together at said face ends via a tongue-and-groove joint.  
   
   
       5 . A wall system as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said wall elements on said face ends are joinable together via at least one bolt which engages in at least one centering sleeve of a next one of said wall elements.  
   
   
       6 . A wall system as defined in  claim 4 , wherein said wall elements on said face ends are joinable together via two said centering bolts.  
   
   
       7 . A wall system as defined in  claim 5 , wherein each of said wall elements, at least on two of vertical face ends is provided with at least one centering sleeve having a female thread into which an end, provided with a thread, of a centering bolt is screwable and into which another end of said centering bolt without the thread is insertable.  
   
   
       8 . A wall system as defined in  claim 1;  and further comprising corner profiles having a polygonal cross-section, each of said wall elements being fixable in a manner selected from the group consisting of magnetically, mechanically, and both, to at least two of outer sides of said corner profiles.  
   
   
       9 . A wall system as defined in  claim 8 , wherein said corner profiles and said wall elements are joinable together via at least one centering bolt which engages in a centering sleeve.  
   
   
       10 . A wall system as defined in  claim 9 , wherein said at least one centering bolt is located on a respective one of said corner profiles.  
   
   
       11 . A wall system as defined in  claim 8 , wherein said corner profiles and said wall elements are joinable together via at least one centering bolt having a head that is offset from a basic body, said centering bolt being introducible into an oblong slot provided on said corner profile that has a widened region for receiving said head, so that said head engages said oblong slot from behind.  
   
   
       12 . A wall system as defined in  claim 1 , wherein for attaching a second wall element perpendicular to a first one of said wall elements at any arbitrary point of one of front sides of said first wall element, the wall system further comprises connection profiles of rectangular cross-section, which are fixable to an upper and lower face end of said first wall element, and on whose outer side the second wall element is magnetically fixable.  
   
   
       13 . A wall system as defined in  claim 12 , wherein said second wall element and said connection profile are joinable via at least one centering bolt that engages a centering sleeve.  
   
   
       14 . A wall system as defined in  claim 1;  and further comprising feet to stand on, which are screwable into a lower face end of said wall elements.  
   
   
       15 . A wall system as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the wall system is configured as a wall system for exhibition booths.
