Abstract: Partitions are provided, in particular for exhibition or show stands. These partitions can be assembled from a plurality of inherently rigid wall elements, which are each essentially formed from a frame and at least two panel plates covering the frame on the outside. The individual wall elements are releasably connectable to one another by coupling members. Each coupling member is essentially constructed from three partial elements, namely two frame connections (7, 49) and a connecting element (8, 46). The two frame connections are arranged in each case in the region of the outside of the vertical frame limbs (6) of two wall elements which are to be connected. The frame connections (7, 49) and the connecting element (8, 46) can engage behind one another in a clamping fashion. In this manner, individual wall elements can be removed from an already assembled partition by the controlled removal of individual connecting elements.

Abstract: A mount for plate-shaped components, more particularly glass plates is disclosed. The mount comprises a socket element, which penetrates a recess in the plate-shaped component, thereby fixing the component, and a hinged bolt. At its first end, the hinged bolt comprises ball element, which is rotatably mounted in a recess of the socket element, and can be secured with its opposite second end to a support structure, thereby fixing the socket element. In this respect, the ball element (6) is at least slightly linearly displaceable in the recess (7) of the socket element (2) along tile longitudinal axis of the hinged bolt (3), and at least one spring element (12, 13) acts indirectly or directly upon the ball element (6).
