DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(12) FIGS. 1 to 5 show a first embodiment of a support 10 according to the invention. In this case, the support 10 is shown in FIG. 1 in a first oblique view and in FIG. 2 in a second oblique view, viewed in the direction of the arrow 12 shown in FIG. 1.

(13) As can be seen clearly in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the support 10 is formed as a multi-part bent sheet-metal part made of stainless steel. The support 10 comprises a wall fastening segment 14 and a fa?ade fastening segment 16.

(14) The wall fastening segment 14 is designed for mounting the support 10 to a building wall (not shown) by means of the mounting hole 18, and is shown on its own in FIGS. 3 and 4 in two different oblique views. The mounting hole 18 is arranged in a contact surface 20 of the wall fastening segment 14, which is designed for mounting to a building wall.

(15) As can also be seen clearly in FIGS. 3 and 4, the wall fastening segment 14 is formed as a sheet metal angle, a leg 22 being arranged at an angle of approximately 90? to the contact surface 20. The wall fastening segment 14 comprises, in the region of the contact surface, two claw-like tabs 24, which are arranged in a plane with the contact surface 20 and thus widen the contact surface 20. The tabs 24 are furthermore designed to clip a thermal element 26 (shown in FIGS. 1 and 2) made of polyamide or a plastics material having a low heat transfer coefficient onto the tabs 24 or onto the wall fastening segment 14, so that the wall fastening segment 14 can be thermally decoupled from the building wall (not shown). On the side facing away from the contact surface 20, the wall fastening segment 14 comprises a center mark 27 for aligning the support 10 on a wall.

(16) A recess 30 is introduced into the leg 22 on an upper side 28, which recess is designed such that the leg 22 forms two projections 32, 34 on the upper side 28. On the upper side 28, the projection 34 comprises, on its end facing the projection 32, a lug 36 which extends towards the projection 32.

(17) The fa?ade fastening segment 16 is shown on its own in FIG. 5. The free end 38 of the fa?ade fastening segment 16 comprises a first connection segment 40 for the horizontal mounting of supporting profiled elements or mounting profiled elements (not shown) and a second connection segment 42 for the vertical mounting of supporting profiled elements or mounting profiled elements, the second connection segment 42 being arranged perpendicularly to the first connection segment 40.

(18) The fa?ade fastening segment 16 further comprises a first sheet metal segment 44 that is arranged in a plane of the first contact segment 40, and a second sheet metal segment 46 that is arranged in a plane of the second contact segment 42, the first sheet metal segment 44 and the second sheet metal segment 46 being integrally interconnected. The first sheet metal segment 44 and the second sheet metal segment 46 are arranged relative to one another at an angle of 90? by bending.

(19) In the region of the free end 38, a slot 48 that is open towards the free end 38 is provided between the first sheet metal segment 44 and the second sheet metal segment 46, which slot is provided for feeding through segments of a particular supporting profiled element or mounting profiled element when mounting supporting profiled elements or mounting profiled elements on the connection segments 40, 42. The connection segments 40, 42 each further comprise at least one fixed point 50 formed as a circular hole and at least one sliding point 52 formed as an elongate hole.

(20) By means of a fixed point 50 of this kind, the main load, specifically the weight of the fa?ade arranged on a plurality of supports 10, can be borne, it being possible for suction forces and compression forces caused by the wind and acting on a building fa?ade to be diverted by a sliding point 52 of this kind.

(21) On the side remote from the free end 38, the fa?ade fastening segment 16 also comprises an open slot 54 between the first sheet metal segment 44 and the second sheet metal segment 46. At a spacing 56 from the slot 54 which is slightly smaller than a width 58 of the recess 30 of the wall fastening segment 14, an additional slot 60 is arranged between the first sheet metal segment 44 and the second sheet metal segment 46.

(22) The slot 60 has a length 62 which is selected so as to be slightly greater than a width 64 of the projection 32 of the wall fastening segment 14, meaning that the fa?ade fastening segment 16, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, can be connected to the wall fastening segment 14, the projection 32 being introduced into the slot 60 and the lug 36 preventing the fa?ade fastening segment 16 from sliding out.

(23) In order to provide a moment of resistance against bending that is as high as possible, the first sheet metal segment 44 has a width 66, the second sheet metal segment 46 having a width 68. The width 68 and the width 66 are each selected such that the maximum width 68 along the longitudinal extension of the fa?ade fastening segment 16 is always greater than the relevant maximum width 66 and such that the minimum width 68 along the longitudinal extension of the fa?ade fastening segment 16 is likewise always greater than the relevant minimum width 66.

(24) Likewise for providing a moment of resistance against bending that is as high as possible, the contact surface 20 has a height 70, which is greater than a maximum width 72 of the contact surface 20. This can be seen clearly in FIG. 4.

(25) In the event that the wall fastening segment 14, as in FIGS. 1 to 4, only comprises one mounting hole 18, the fa?ade fastening segment 16 comprises, on the sheet metal segment 44, a keyhole-like mounting opening 74 for a tension rod 76 (shown in FIG. 10).

(26) The tension rod 76 comprises a connection segment 78 that can be connected to the fa?ade fastening segment 16 and a mounting segment 80 remote from the connection segment 78 for mounting to a building wall. In this case, the tension rod 76 is designed such that it can be arranged on a building wall centrally above the fa?ade fastening segment 16, such that bending moments acting on the fa?ade fastening segment 16 can be diverted towards the building wall.

(27) In this case, it is particularly preferred if the tension rod 76 comprises an eye-like mounting segment 80 having a hole 82 for mounting to a building wall. The connection segment 78 of the tension rod 76 is arrow-shaped such that it can be secured against being pulled out by rotating it in the mounting opening 80. For this purpose, the connection segment of the tension rod has a width 84 that is greater than a width 86 of the mounting opening 74 in the fa?ade fastening segment 16. Furthermore, the tension rod 76 has, at its narrowest point, a width 88 that is slightly smaller than the width 86 of the fa?ade fastening segment 16. The tension rod 76 can thus be fastened to the fa?ade fastening segment 16 simply and without using tools.

(28) In order to fasten the support 10, a screw connection is first produced by means of the mounting hole 18, the tension rod 76 arranged in the mounting opening 74 then being screwed to a wall above the screw connection of the mounting hole 18.

(29) FIGS. 6 to 9 show a second embodiment of a support 100 according to the invention. Elements corresponding to the support 10 according to FIGS. 1 to 5 are denoted by corresponding reference signs. In this case, the support 100 is shown in FIG. 6 in a first oblique view and in FIG. 7 in a second oblique view when viewed in the direction of the arrow 102 shown in FIG. 6.

(30) As can be seen clearly in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the support 100 is formed as an integral bent sheet-metal part made of stainless steel. This is advantageous in comparison with the support 10 according to FIGS. 1 to 5 since it is less expensive to produce.

(31) The support 100 also comprises a wall fastening segment 14 and a fa?ade fastening segment 16, the wall fastening segment 14 and the fa?ade fastening segment 16 being integral.

(32) In this case, the support 100 is formed, in the region of the contact surface 20, as double-layered sheet metal, the wall fastening segment 14 comprising an upper sheet metal segment 104 and a lower sheet metal segment 106, which can be seen clearly in FIG. 8. In this case, the upper sheet metal segment 104 forms the contact surface 20.

(33) Owing to the integral design, the first sheet metal segment 44 of the fa?ade fastening segment 16 is integrally connected to the upper sheet metal segment 104, the second sheet metal segment 46 being integrally connected to the lower sheet metal segment 106. This can also be seen clearly in FIG. 9, which shows a development 108 of the support 100 according to FIGS. 7 and 8.

(34) The development 108 is produced by laser cutting from sheet metal, all slots, recesses and fastening points having already been introduced into the sheet metal by laser cutting.

(35) The first sheet metal segment 44 is first bent relative to the second sheet metal segment 64 about a bend line 110 until the sheet metal segments 44, 46 are arranged at an angle of approximately 90? relative to one another.

(36) In a second step, the lower sheet metal segment 106 is bent about a bend line 112 until the lower sheet metal segment 106 is arranged at an angle of approximately 90? to the second sheet metal segment 46.

(37) Finally, in a third step, the upper sheet metal segment 104 is bent about a bend line 114 until the upper sheet metal segment 104 is arranged at an angle of approximately 90? to the first sheet metal segment 44 and lies over the lower sheet metal segment 106 such that the mounting holes 18 overlap.

(38) The support 100 according to FIGS. 5 to 9 is mounted in a similar manner to the support 10 according to FIGS. 1 to 5.
