An insert wedge is configured for fixedly clamping a first panel within a groove in a second panel. The insert wedge includes a square angle which has a broad limb and a wedge-like, narrow limb. A spring tongue is integrally formed on the outer side of the broad limb and extends by way of its free tongue end beyond the outer side of the narrow limb. The outer side of the narrow limb and the inner side of the broad limb may form an angle of 90°. The spring tongue may be inclined in relation to the inner side of the broad limb. The outer side of the narrow limb and the outer side of the spring tongue may form an angle of between 10° and 20°. The outer and/or inner side of the narrow limb and/or the outer side of the spring tongue may have projections.

Shelving System for Resisting Applied Shear Forces and Method for Forming the Same
20210186211 · 2021-06-24 ·

A shelving system formed by a plurality of vertical posts and horizontal traverses held together through frictional engagement. Disposed between each lateral pair of posts are a pair of post connectors which include a female frictional engagement member configured to engage with a male frictional engagement member disposed on each post. The post and post connector engage with each other so as to create a proportional reaction force in response to any shear force applied to the shelving system. Disposed between each longitudinal pair of posts is at least one traverse which includes a collar configured to engage with one of a plurality of male components disposed along the height of the post. Each of the male components have a tapered shape which matches a tapered shape of a female aperture defined within the collar so as to form a closely fitted coupling between the post and each traverse.

COMPOSED ELEMENT, MULTI-LAYERED BOARD AND PANEL-SHAPED ELEMENT FOR FORMING THIS COMPOSED ELEMENT

A composed element includes at least two panel-shaped elements, which each have an edge zone in which coupling means are present in a profiled part respectively extending in the longitudinal direction of the respective edge zone, and each including an end face extending transversely to the respective edge zone. The profiled parts allow the coupling of the panel-shaped elements together in an interlocking manner. At least one of the panel-shaped elements includes an arrangement which hides from view at least a portion of the profiled part formed at the pertaining edge zone at the location of the end face.

ASSEMBLED PRODUCT AND A METHOD OF ASSEMBLING THE ASSEMBLED PRODUCT

An assembled product includes at least three elements arranged in three different planes. A first element is connected perpendicular to a second element, and a third element is connected perpendicular to the second element. The assembled product includes one or more locking devices, each comprising a flexible tongue arranged in an insertion groove one of the at least three elements. The flexible tongue cooperates with a tongue groove, at an adjacent one of the at least three elements, for locking the one element and the adjacent element together. A second edge of the second element is connected to a second edge of the third element by a first of said locking devices.
