Sealing element for a structural joint

Abstract

A sealing element for a structural joint contains a first carrier layer and a second carrier layer. The two carrier layers, in a cross-sectional view oriented perpendicularly to a longitudinal direction of the sealing element, are substantially the same length. At least one portion of the first carrier layer and at least one portion of the second carrier layer extend toward one another in a V shape. A receiving space, in which a functional material is received, is also formed between the first carrier layer and the second carrier layer.

1 : A sealing element for a structural joint, comprising:
 a first carrier layer, and   a second carrier layer,   wherein the first carrier layer and the second carrier layer, in a cross-sectional view oriented perpendicularly to a longitudinal direction of the sealing element, are substantially the same length and at least one portion of the first carrier layer and at least one portion of the second carrier layer extend toward one another in a V shape,   wherein a receiving space is formed between the first carrier layer and the second carrier layer and a functional material is received in the receiving space.   
     
     
         2 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one portion of the first carrier layer and the at least one portion of the second carrier layer are connected to one another at ends thereof which are closer together. 
     
     
         3 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein a further portion of the first carrier layer and a further portion of the second carrier layer extend substantially parallel to one another. 
     
     
         4 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein the first carrier layer and the second carrier layer as a whole extend toward one another in a V shape. 
     
     
         5 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one portion of an outer surface of the first carrier layer forms a first contact surface for contact with a boundary surface of the structural joint, and/or
 wherein at least one portion of an outer surface of the second carrier layer forms a second contact surface for contact with the boundary surface of the structural joint.   
     
     
         6 : The sealing element according to  claim 5 , wherein the first contact surface and/or the second contact surface is provided with an adhesive coating. 
     
     
         7 : The sealing element according to  claim 5 , wherein at least one holding element for holding the sealing element in the structural joint is provided on the first contact surface and/or on the second contact surface. 
     
     
         8 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein the functional material comprises an intumescent material. 
     
     
         9 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein the functional material comprises a thermal insulation material. 
     
     
         10 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein the functional material comprises a noise insulation material. 
     
     
         11 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein the functional material comprises a sealing material. 
     
     
         12 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein the functional material rests against both the first carrier layer and the second carrier layer, and the functional material is elastically flexible. 
     
     
         13 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein a spring element separate from the functional material is arranged in the receiving space and connects the first carrier layer and the second carrier layer. 
     
     
         14 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein a stop element for resting on an edge of the structural joint is provided on at least one of an end of the first carrier layer and an end of the second carrier layer which are further apart in the cross-sectional view. 
     
     
         15 : The sealing element according to  claim 1 , wherein a cover element for covering the receiving space is arranged on at least one of an end of the first carrier layer and an end of the second carrier layer which are further apart in the cross-sectional view. 
     
     
         16 : The sealing element according to  claim 2 , wherein the first carrier layer and the second carrier layer are connected to one another in an elastically flexible manner. 
     
     
         17 : The sealing element according to  claim 7 , wherein the at least one holding element is a holding projection or a holding finger.
