  • Patent number: 11892029
    Abstract: A clip for holding two flat elements joined together at their main face. The clip comprises a lower wall, an upper wall, and two side walls, the walls defining a closed volume. The side walls are provided with a groove having an end that opens into a face referred to as the “front face” of the clip. The grooves are configured to insert the clip by its front face onto the two joined flat elements and are each delimited by a contour having an upper segment and a lower segment opposite the upper segment. According to the present disclosure, the side walls each have, on their respective outwardly facing faces, a flat holding flange that extends along a rectilinear portion of the lower segment of the groove and provides a contact surface with one of the flat elements. The present disclosure also relates to an assembly comprising such a clip.

  • Patent number: 10530293
    Abstract: A fastening staple adapted for fastening of a photovoltaic framework against a front face of a support wall comprises a bearing head and a counter-support foot constituting a jaw likely to transversely receive both a segment of the support wall and a segment of the photovoltaic framework. The counter-support foot comprises at least one bearing lateral flange positioned longitudinally so as to bear longitudinally against a rear face of the support wall when the photovoltaic framework and the support wall are transversely engaged in the jaw. The bearing head comprises at least one hooking element adapted to hook the photovoltaic framework in order to transversely immobilize the photovoltaic framework in the jaw.
