Element for connecting two profiled tubes for structural elements of large modules used in the construction of containers or rail vehicles comprises tension nuts that engage in coupling elements to create form- and force-locking connections

摘要

Connecting element between the ends of two profiled tubes (1, 2) comprises inner-lying tension nuts (4) that can be moved in opposite directions by a threaded spindle (3) and engage in coupling elements (5) fixed to the profiled tubes so that a form-locking connection is created in a first bending direction and a force-locking connection in a second bending direction offset by 90[deg]. Preferred Features: The tension nuts and the coupling elements are one-part precision cast parts.
