  • Patent number: 7293935
    Abstract: A connector system that provides a profile connection having two profiled rods that are to be connected to one another and that each comprise at least one undercut, longitudinally oriented profile groove. The connector system may include a connecting screw with a screw head and a screw shaft as well as a threaded sleeve. The connecting screw is dimensioned such that it passes through the threaded sleeve and with part of its shaft, by way of the sleeve, can be engaged with a thrust bearing piece in the profile groove of the second profiled rod. The connecting screw is fixed in the threaded sleeve by a releasable anchoring element so as to be ready for installation. Thus, an assembly unit is created that can be screwed as a whole into the profile groove of the first profiled rod.

  • Publication number: 20050260032
    Abstract: Connector system designed and intended for a profile connection comprising two profiled rods (11, 12) made of metal, in particular of aluminum, that are to be connected to one another and that each comprise at least one undercut, longitudinally oriented profile groove (13, 14), such that said connector system consists of a connecting screw (15) with a screw head (16) and a screw shaft (17) as well as a threaded sleeve (18).. The connecting screw (15) is dimensioned such that it passes through the threaded sleeve (18) and with part of its shaft (17), by way of the sleeve, can be engaged with a thrust-bearing piece in the profile groove (14) of the second profiled rod (12). The connecting screw is fixed in the threaded sleeve (18) by a releasable fixation means (19) so as to be ready for installation; thus an assembly unit (20) is created that can be screwed as a whole into the profile groove (13) of the first profiled rod (11).
