  • Patent number: 11738291
    Abstract: A method of forming a honeycomb-shaped assembly comprises providing a plurality of profiled strips. Each of the profiled strips comprises two base sides positioned at an obtuse angle relative to each other to form a trough-shaped configuration. An inner projecting flange and an outer projecting flange extend from the base sides. One of the inner projecting flange and outer projecting flange comprises an groove. Two connecting sides each extend along a plane from one of the two base sides and each includes at least one free end including a projection. The plurality of profiled strips are stacked to form an octagonal honeycomb configuration by inserting the projection of a connecting side of one of the plurality of profiled strips into the groove of a base side of another of the plurality of profiled strips. At least a portion of the projection is received by the groove in an interlocking manner.

  • Patent number: 8844136
    Abstract: A filling body, comprising a plurality of plastic foils, which are undulated, wherein a plastic foil has a plurality of connecting elements for connecting a plastic foil to other plastic foils via a plurality of form-fitting connections. The filling body is configured such that two plastic foils are connected to a plastic foil pair, and plastic foil pairs are connected to other plastic foil pairs. The connecting elements are positioned on the plastic foils such that upon joining two plastic foils to a plastic foil pair, the still unconnected connecting elements can be joined into connecting element pairs on opposite sides of the two plastic foils. The connecting element pairs are located exclusively in the vicinity of the edges of the two plastic foil pairs.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a filling body, comprising a plurality of plastic foils, which are undulated, wherein a plastic foil has a plurality of connecting elements, by means of which a plastic foil can be connected to other plastic foils via a plurality of form-fitting connections. The filling body is configured such that two plastic foils are connected to a plastic foil pair, and plastic foil pairs are connected to other plastic foil pairs. According to the present invention, the connecting elements are positioned on the plastic foils such that upon joining two plastic foils to a plastic foil pair, the still unconnected connecting elements can be joined into connecting element pairs on the sides of the two plastic foils opposite of each other, wherein these connecting element pairs are distributed across the entire surface of the two foils.
