Levelling piece

Abstract

The present invention relates to a levelling piece for cladding panels, which has an inverted T-shaped profile, provided with a flat base from which an inverted U-shaped element emerges perpendicularly, connected by two arms defining an opening, which has a gable end. The gable shape of the levelling piece guides the wedge into a centred position with respect to the levelling piece during use, allowing self-centring of the wedge and the distribution of the forces applied by the wedge on the levelling piece in different planes, preventing the inverted U-shaped element from bending with respect to the base.

1 . A levelling piece for cladding panels,
 wherein the levelling piece has an inverted T-shaped profile with a flat base from which an inverted U-shaped element emerges perpendicularly, and   wherein the inverted U-shaped element is connected to the base by two arms defining an opening which has a gable end in a portion comprised defined between the arms.   
     
     
         2 . The levelling piece according to  claim 1 , wherein the portion defined between the arms has two right-angled ends arranged adjacent to the gable end, wherein the gable end is disposed centred in the portion defined between the arms. 
     
     
         3 . The levelling piece according to  claim 1 , wherein the inverted U-shaped element. 
     
     
         4 . The levelling piece according to  claim 1 , wherein ends of the base farthest away from the inverted U-shaped element have a reduction in thickness. 
     
     
         5 . The levelling piece according to  claim 1 , wherein the base has bevelled corners. 
     
     
         6 . The levelling piece according to  claim 1 , wherein the arms have notches at respective ends which are connected to the base. 
     
     
         7 . The levelling piece according to  claim 2 , wherein the inverted U-shaped element has a rib. 
     
     
         8 . The levelling piece according to  claim 2 , wherein the arms have notches at respective ends which are connected to the base. 
     
     
         9 . The levelling piece according to  claim 3 , wherein the arms have notches at respective ends which are connected to the base. 
     
     
         10 . The levelling piece according to  claim 4 , wherein the arms have notches at respective ends which are connected to the base. 
     
     
         11 . The levelling piece according to  claim 5 , wherein the arms have notches at respective ends which are connected to the base. 
     
     
         12 . The levelling piece according to  claim 7 , wherein the arms have notches at respective ends which are connected to the base.
