A method for connecting plastic profile parts (2) brings into contact at least one profile part (2) and a heating surface (34) of a heating, element (36) so that the profile part (2) begins to melt in its welding area before it is joined together with the other profile part (2). A delimiting element (7) regulates the flow and deformation of the melt material. The delimiting element (7) has at least one contact element (21) and a molded part (22), which are movable both in relation to one another and in relation to the profile part (2).

When a changeover is made from melting to compressing, the relatively movable contact element (21) is moved together with the molded part (22) in the direction of its working position so that the delimiting element (7) projects beyond a free front edge (4) of the at least one profile part (2) and creates a holding plane (37).

The profiled element (1) comprises: one main portion (2) defining a holding surface (2a) for a central panel (3) of a door/window (4), the main portion (2) being adapted to form a perimeter frame (5) of the door/window (4); one retaining portion (6) which defines an abutment surface (6a) of the central panel (3) and is adapted to fasten the central panel (3) to the perimeter frame (5); and non-removable connection means (7) which connect the main portion (2) to the retaining portion (6) and are adapted to allow the movement of the retaining portion (6) between a raised configuration, wherein it frees superiorly the holding surface (2a), and a retaining configuration, wherein it faces the holding surface (2a).

A method and a device (10) for welding at least two profiled sections (1) for window or door frames or leaves uses a heating unit (4) introduced between the profiled sections (2, 3) to be joined. At least two heating elements (5, 6) of the heating unit melt the profiled section ends (2, 3) at the end surfaces to be joined. In order to chamfer, in particular remove, a profiled section edge layer (20) of the profiled section ends (2, 3) along the layer surfaces (12, 13) thereof, at least one tool, in particular at least one cutting blade (7, 8), is arranged on the heating elements (5, 6) and is moved such that the material (9) to be melted is displaced into the profiled section interior (11) or into the interior (12) of the profiled section chambers (13). A compression device compresses the profiled section ends (2, 3).
