20230148009 · 2023-05-11 ·

One or more hidden clips can be efficiently fastened and mounted to decking planks, e.g., with a tool or manually. A plurality of hidden clips can be included with a strip of clips and separated by a frangible section or tab located between adjacent clips. Each hidden clip can include a leading edge and a trailing edge opposite the leading edge. The leading edge can be beveled or tapered across an entirety thereof. At least one connecting tab spans between a respective leading edge and trailing edge of adjacent decking clips in the clip strip. Each of the decking clips can include an aperture configured to receive a fastener. A fastener can be disposed in the aperture in each clip such that each fastener extends partially above a top surface of the decking clip.

PANEL CONNECTION SYSTEM

Panel connection system for the corner connection of two panels which are arranged at an angled inclination to one another, having a first connecting element having a bearing portion with at least one support surface, by which the connecting element is supported on one of the two panels, and a leg portion which projects at an angled inclination from the bearing portion and which has at least one first engaging structure, and a second connecting element having a bearing portion having at least one support surface, by which the connecting element is supported on the other of the two panels, and having at least one second engaging structure which is situated opposite the support surface, wherein the at least one first engaging structure of the first connecting element is designed for engagement in the at least one second engaging structure of the second connecting element.

METHOD AND MEANS FOR MAKING A WALL BY MEANS OF SECURING DRYWALL PANELS TO A BACKGROUND
20210293016 · 2021-09-23 ·

Method for making a wall with the aid of drywall panels (1, 1a, 1b) and a background (2, 12, 25), wherein the drywall panels are provided with edge coupling profiles (3, 4, 6, 13, 14, 16) on their edges, which are arranged to be secured to the background and, subsequently, coupled to each other. The drywall panels may also be provided with a rear coupling profile (24). The drywall panels can be hooked together or coupled to each other by means of transverse sliding. The edge coupling profiles may also comprise anti-adhesive extensions (31), forming anti-adhesive edge areas (32) at the front side of the drywall panel on which stucco mass does not adhere. The measures according to the invention are intended to provide drywall panels which, after use, can be disassembled easily and cleanly so that the drywall panels can be reused as drywall panels, resulting in that the environment is not burdened with gypsum waste caused by damaged, broken and destroyed drywall panels.
