  • Patent number: 10094121
    Abstract: A slat device (1) comprising a plurality of slats (2) arranged parallel to one another, displacement means (9, 10) for displacing the slats (2) between and in a stacking zone and a sliding, and a guide profile (3), which is arranged on a lateral side of the slats (2), wherein a slat (2), on the said lateral side, is provided with a guide element (5), corresponding with the guide profile (3), for guiding the respective slat (2) relative to the corresponding guide profile (3, 6) during its displacement motion between and in the stacking zone and the sliding zone, such that the guide element (5) is rotatable over a certain angle relative to the guide profile (3) about an axis according to the longitudinal direction of the guide profile (3).
