  • Publication number: 20240011278
    Abstract: A connector for two components comprises two fittings each with a mounting side, an abutment side opposite the mounting side, and an end face connecting the mounting and abutment sides. At the end faces the fittings may be hooked into one another. The fittings are made of wood or of wood-plastic composite and have one or more generally cylindrical blind holes on their abutment side. The connector comprises, for each blind hole, a molding for removable insertion into the blind hole. The molding has a base surface, a top surface parallel thereto, a substantially generally cylindrical lateral surface connecting these two, and a slanted bore for a mounting screw. The bore penetrates the molding at an acute angle to the base and top surfaces.

  • Publication number: 20230375018
    Abstract: The invention relates to a connector for two workpieces, comprising two fittings which each have a mounting face for a workpiece and an opposite connecting face, on which they can be hooked into one another in a hooking direction extending in parallel with the connecting face. Each fitting comprises, on its connecting face, a shoulder which extends transversely to the hooking direction over its entire width and comprises an undercut, which leaves a ridge on the shoulder. The end face of each fitting remote from the shoulder and adjacent to the connecting face has a lip adjacent to the connecting face and extending over its entire width transversely to the hooking direction. The lip of each fitting engages in the undercut in the respective other fitting in a first position of the fittings in which they are hooked into one another.

  • Patent number: 5641161
    Abstract: An arrangement for delivering stacked items from magazines inclined relative to the vertical through a delivery opening at a magazine lower end side includes a rotor with radial blades located in the vicinity of the delivery opening of the magazines to deliver items from the magazines. The rotor has an axis of rotation arranged in or below the bottom of the magazine, and the blades, while rotating, move on a continuous path partially extending through the magazine. Each blade serves as a delivery member for the items and moves in the magazine and in the direction of item delivery out of the magazine, when the rotor rotates in skidding direction of the items. A latch mechanism includes a ratchet wheel connected with the rotor for rotation therewith, and a latch arranged on a pivotable latch body. The latch mechanism is provided for locking the rotor against rotation as well as for rotating the rotor, and the blades each act to deliver items and as a stop for the items.
