Abstract: A pedestrian flow control system includes a first lateral boundary element and a second lateral boundary element, a passage for persons being formed between the lateral boundary elements; and a middle element arranged in the passage. The middle element is mounted at the bottom on a guide element oriented perpendicularly to the lateral boundary elements and can be moved along the guide element into at least a first position and a second position, is arranged between the lateral boundary elements and divides the passage into two aisles in the first position, openings the passage substantially over the whole width of the passage in the second position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a connecting element (24) for a floor covering (20) consisting of a first part element (26) and a second part element (28), each having connecting openings (34) by which means they can be connected to one another by a connecting means (36). In the assembled state these form a connecting channel (38) in which a connector (40) can be disposed, which connector also has a connecting opening (34) for the connecting means (36), wherein the connector (40) projects laterally from the connecting element (24) in such a manner that it can be inserted into a connecting channel (38) of a neighbouring connecting element (24) and a connecting means (36) can likewise extend there through a second connecting opening (34) so that two connecting means (36) located adjacent to one another can be connected to one another by the connector (40), wherein the connecting means (36) has dimensions such that it does not protrude over a useful area (21) of the floor covering (20) (FIG. 5).
