Latch connector for profile beams and tubes
Herein is disclosed a latch mechanism for latching together extruded support members used to construct temporary partitions and the like. The latch mechanism consists of a latch and strike plate combination wherein a latch is placed at the end of one extrusion and a strike plate is positioned at the end of a second extrusion. The strike plate has hooks and the latch has a bail which is dimensioned to engage the hooks. Each of the latches are switchable between an unlocked orientation wherein the bail is free from the hooks and a locked position wherein the bail engages the hooks and biases the two extrusions together. The strike plate, bail, and hooks are dimensioned and configured such that up to four extrusions can be latched around a single fifth central extrusion.

Profile bar, profile assembly and method for producing a profile assembly
A profile bar (10, 10a) formed as an extruded part and consisting of a light metal alloy, in particular an aluminum alloy, with a rectangular in particular square, cross-section, wherein a longitudinal groove pair (20, 20a), comprising two longitudinal grooves arranged parallel to one another and at a distance from one another, is provided in each case on at least one lateral surface, preferably on all four lateral surfaces, and with at least two, preferably four, longitudinal channels which extend parallel to the longitudinal grooves and which form in each case an opening (40) for fastening in each case a pen (34) on each of the two end faces (36) of the profile bar (10, 10a), wherein each longitudinal channel is arranged on an imaginary intersection line of planes extending at a right angle to one another and arranged perpendicularly to in each case a lateral surface, wherein at least one of the planes is a longitudinal center plane of a longitudinal groove of a longitudinal groove pair (20).
CORNER PIECE FOR ATTACHING TWO PROFILES AT AN ANGLE, PROFILE, SET, CORNER ELEMENT, FRAME, STAND CONSTRUCTION ELEMENT, STAND AND METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MAKING THEREOF
A corner piece for mounting two profiles at an angle, the corner piece comprising at least a first and a second leg mounted mounted together at an angle to each other, wherein the first leg is arranged to be slid into a mounting channel of a first profile along the first direction and the second leg is arranged to be slid into a mounting channel of a second profile along the second direction, characterized in that at least the first leg comprises at least one protrusion extending along a height direction of the mounting channel, so that when sliding the first leg into the mounting channel of the first profile, the protrusion clamps the first leg into a predetermined position in the mounting channel of the first profile.
Locking assembly for securing one or more building elements in a building system
A locking assembly (100) for securing one or more building elements in a building system is disclosed herein. The locking assembly (100) comprises: a first component (110) adapted for engagement to the building system, the first component (110) including a first locking portion (112) defining a first surface profile; a second component (120) including a second locking portion (122) defining a second surface profile corresponding to the first surface profile of the first locking portion (112), the second locking portion (122) being adapted for engagement with the first locking portion (112); and a third component (130) having a first end and a second end, the first end being adapted for engagement with the second locking portion (122) of the second component (120), wherein the third component (130) is resiliently deformable from a locked configuration to an unlocked configuration under application of force to the third component (130), wherein in the locked configuration, the second locking portion (122) is engaged to the first locking portion (112) so as to secure the first component (110) to the second component (120), and in the unlocked configuration, the second locking portion (122) is disengaged from the first locking portion (112).
STORAGE SYSTEM
A storage system includes a storage grid structure and multiple remotely operated storage bin handling vehicles. The storage grid structure includes vertical storage column profiles defining multiple storage columns in which storage bins can be stored one on top of another in vertical stacks. Each of the storage column profiles have an upper end and a lower end and the storage column profiles are interconnected at their upper ends by rails forming a horizontal rail grid upon which the bin handling vehicles may move in two perpendicular directions. The storage grid structure features grid supports include multiple base angle brackets. Each base angle bracket includes a vertical flange and a horizontal flange. The vertical flange is connected to a storage column profile. The horizontal flange is connected by bolts to a floor upon which the storage grid is arranged and a web interconnecting the flanges. Each of the flanges has a first end and a second end. The first end is arranged closer than the second end to the lower end of the storage column profile to which the vertical flange is connected. The web has a recess arranged between the first ends of the flanges.
METHOD AND MODULE SYSTEM FOR BUILDING A WALL STRUCTURE
A method and a module system for building purposes by using a module system is provided, said module system including a plurality of mutually equal-sized basic components, which are assembled for a wall structure in one or more vertical planes by installing the same in connection with each other side by side and on top of each other. The wall structure is put together from substantially thin-walled basic components, which are open at ends thereof opposite in a lengthwise direction thereof and have an open internal space, and which are coupled to each other side by side and on top of each other with connection pieces capable of being connected with a first form locking joint to lengthwise coupling arrangements present on each external side thereof. The basic components are coupled to each other with an end block interconnecting the basic components by the opposite ends thereof.
Construction system for a module of a building
The invention proposes a system for constructing a module of a building, including core construction elements (1) that are surrounded by the surrounding construction elements (2A, 2B). The core construction elements (1) each include, in section, a cross including two main arms (6) of equal length which intersect at mid-length at right angle. Each core construction element (1) has a plane of symmetry about the axes of the arms. The main arms (6) of the cross terminate, at the ends thereof, with transverse portions (7). Each surrounding construction element (2A, 2B) is composed of four partial surrounding parts (2A, 2B, 2A′, 2B′) of a generally triangular shape which are assembled around a core element (1). Construction elements forming junction parts (4A, 4B) allow assembling panels (4A, 4B) to form a module of a building in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped volume comprising four corners.
Construction system for a building module
The present invention concerns a construction system for a building module, whose main elements are made of plastic material, providing a robust construction in an easy and quick manner. The system includes a set of main beams (1) adapted to be assembled end-to-end to form an open structure in the shape of a 3-dimensional rectangular frame. The system further includes secondary beams (11), adapted to be assembled between parallel and opposite main beams, and flat facade elements (3) insertable against each other between two adjacent parallel beams. Each facade element (3) includes a rectangular flat plate provided with two folded opposite edges (3A) intended to be hooked with adjacent parallel beams. Each main beam has a rectangular cross-section including, on the four sides thereof, a projection (21) parallel to the side and spaced therefrom leaving an opening to receive a folded edge of a flat facade element. Each secondary beam (11) includes, on two opposite faces, at least one projection leaving an opening to receive a folded edge of a flat facade element (3).
End brackets
An end bracket for a wall system includes a body member having attachment structure to join a horizontal strut to a vertical strut. The end bracket further includes attachment structure in which the horizontal strut is slidably attached for moving and positioning the horizontal strut relative to the vertical strut in forming the wall system.
