Description

Profile for fastening two adjacent plates whose plane-parallel surfaces run in common planes and whose parallel adjacent end edges are pressed between two pressure surfaces

[001] The invention relates to a profile for fastening two adjacent plates whose plane-parallel surfaces extend in common planes and whose parallel adjacent end edges are pressed between two pressure surfaces.

[002] Such profiles are often used in constructions in which houses or parts of houses are built from glass or transparent plastic panels. The glass or plastic panels are manufactured in specific sizes and are attached to the profiles by their edges. Panels that enable good thermal insulation are also used. Incorrect design of the profiles, in particular the respective connections with which the panels are held in the profiles, creates thermal bridges in the area of the profiles through which a lively heat exchange takes place. The profiles often destroy the good insulation value provided by panels, since the heat in the area of the profiles is conducted away from or into an interior space enclosed by the panels.

[003] The object of the present invention is therefore to improve the profile of the type mentioned in the introduction so that the heat losses in the area of the profiles can be minimized.

[004] This object is achieved according to the invention in that at least one insulator is provided between the end edges, through which a fastening means producing the compression extends.

[005] This insulator prevents the profiles in the area of the end edges from forming a thermal bridge from an interior space enclosed by the panels to the surrounding outside air. A direct connection between the interior profile parts and those that are surrounded by the outside air only occurs in the area of the fastening elements. These have a very small cross-section, so that for these reasons alone extensive heat conduction is not an option.

[00(3] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the insulator is provided with an air space between two guide openings guiding the fastening means, through which the fastening means extends. This air space has a good insulation coefficient, so that only a small amount of heat is conducted through it.

[007] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the fastening means is fastened by its end in an insulator base after leaving the air space. This insulator base prevents a strong heat flow between the profile and the fastening means. This prevents the fastening means from heating up, so that only a small amount of heat flows through the fastening means towards the cooler medium.

[008] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the insulator foot is in a recess of a pressure plate extending between the pressure surfaces.

the central bar. This central bar represents a small-volume heat conductor, so that only a small amount of heat is transported through this central bar in the direction of the fastening element.

[009] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a screw is provided as the fastening means, which is fastened with its screw tip in the insulator base when the plates are pressed together and which presses with its screw head onto a pressure plate extending over the insulator and supported on both sides on the end edges. This screw is an inexpensive fastening means which also has a small cross-section so that it can only transport a small amount of heat. In addition, the screw can be used to press the end edges together well so that they are firmly seated within the profile.

[010] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the pressure plate applies an external rubber seal to each of the two plates to be fastened and extends in the longitudinal direction of the end edges. This means that the pressure plate can be manufactured relatively cheaply and at the same time serves as an additional seal against unwanted ingress of leaking water. Due to its rigidity, the pressure plate enables economical use of the fastening means, so that the number of thermal bridges is also kept to a minimum.

[011] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a seal is provided between the end edges and the insulator. This seal additionally prevents heat from escaping in the area of the insulator. In addition, the seal also prevents water from penetrating, for example by preventing condensation from forming in the area of the insulator in the first place, at any rate.

However, the case is prevented from entering an interior space surrounded by the panels.

[012] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the seal is supported with sealing surfaces on the one hand on the insulator and on the other hand on the end edges. In addition, insulating air pockets are provided between the sealing surfaces. Within these insulating air pockets, an air flow is formed running in the longitudinal direction of the profiles, which leads to drying of any condensation that may occur.

[013] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, clamping projections protrude from the insulator into the seal surrounding it for mutual positioning. These clamping projections ensure that the insulator and the seal surrounding it are held in a desired position in which an optimal sealing effect is achieved by the seal.

[014] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a cover shell covering the screw heads extends over the pressure plate. This cover shell has the advantage that it acts as a screen so that the screw heads are not visible from the outside. In addition, the cover shell also extends over those parts of the pressure plate through which the screws extend. This protects the screws and the holes through which the screws extend against water ingress. This prevents moisture from spreading along the screw in the direction of the central web of the profile.

[015] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a screw is provided as the fastening means, which is fastened with its screw tip in the insulator base when the plates are pressed together and whose screw head acts on a pressure surface formed within the air space. Such a screw has the advantage that it does not protrude from the air space, so that it does not protrude beyond an upper edge of the plates.

[016] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the insulator is provided with two parallel receiving edges in the air space enclosed by it, with each of which a grid projection connected to a cover plate can be locked, which protrudes into the air space through the guide opening provided opposite the insulator base. This fastening of the cover plate ensures that it only rises slightly above the plates, i.e. at the level of its plate thickness. In this way, a very flat construction is created, over which other construction parts can be guided.

[017] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the cover plate runs in the direction of a bar extending between two posts and is designed to be so flat that it does not protrude beyond the bar. In this way, a flat bar construction is created which is not interrupted by elevations in the area of the posts.

[018] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the air space tapers conically in the direction of the lower guide opening leading into the insulator base and the screw head has a corresponding conical taper on its underside facing the lower guide opening. In this way, the screw can be placed on the insulator with a large contact surface.

without the screw head protruding beyond the upper edge of the panels. This allows a low construction height to be maintained.

[019] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the insulator has on its two outer sides facing the end edges in the area of the upper guide opening, protruding grid projections in the direction of the end edges, into which a clip supported on the end edges can be snapped. With the help of these grid projections, the clip can support the end edges of the plates against the insulator. In this way, the plates are aligned with the insulator so that a final assembly can be carried out with the help of the fastening means.

can.

[020] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the clip, with its end facing away from the end engaged in the grid projection, rests over a large area on each end edge and is angled in the direction of an outer surface delimiting the panel. The large-area contact of the clip ensures that the forces developed by the clip are introduced evenly, so that the panels are well guided during their final assembly. The angling of the clip leads to the development of the forces necessary to guide the panels.

[021] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the profile is designed as a post, with the aid of which forces can be introduced into the subsoil. The advantage of this post is that it has a design with the aid of which a large number of tasks of a static nature can be solved.

[022] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the post has a T-shaped multifunctional groove at its end opposite the central web. This T-shaped multifunctional groove means that the post can be used for a variety of tasks. For example, the post can be combined with other posts that have a T-shaped design and can therefore be inserted into the multifunctional groove. In addition, cables can be guided in the multifunctional groove.

[023] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the post has a guide groove on at least one of its outer walls for receiving a sunshade. In this way, a sunshade is guided in a simple and elegant manner within the post, so that a smooth function of the sunshade is ensured and its storage is largely unobtrusive.

[024] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a drainage channel which is open at the top in the direction of the panels extends at least in the area of an outer wall immediately below the lateral web. This ensures drainage in the area of the panels, for example for the removal of condensate. In this way, it is ensured that the wall formed by the panels is dry at least in its predominant area.

[025] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a screw channel extends through the central web parallel to it. Other profiles can be screwed to this if necessary by fastening a screw within the screw channel.

[26] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the post has an interior space enclosed by walls, which is of a size suitable for accommodating standard profiles. In this way, the post can be used as a construction element for large-scale buildings. This ensures that standard profiles are guided securely within the interior space.

[027] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, parallel guide grooves for receiving connecting plates extend along at least one side wall of the interior. With the help of these connecting plates, which are inserted into the guide grooves, a plurality of posts can be connected to one another at their ends.

[028] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the profile is designed as a transom that transmits forces from a post to the adjacent post. In this way, posts and transoms form coordinated components that can be easily connected to one another and form a durable system in which the panels are attached.

[029] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a drainage channel which is open at the top in the direction of the panels runs at least in the area of an outer wall immediately below the lateral web. This drainage channel absorbs the amounts of moisture which cannot be captured by the drainage channel provided immediately below the panels. The two drainage channels arranged at different heights ensure that no moisture can enter the space formed by the panels in an uncontrolled manner.

[030] Furthermore, with profiles for holding panels, the problem often arises that adjacent panels do not run in the same plane but at an angle to each other. In such cases, very complicated corner structures often have to be accepted, which, due to their massive design, call into question the light impression of the rest of the building.

[031] A further object of the present invention is therefore to design the profile in such a way that it can be used to create a light corner construction which cannot disturb the impression of a light, elegant construction.

[032] This object is achieved according to the invention in that a post profile is provided for holding the panels, the center planes of which run transversely to each other and which are designed as holders for the panels on their opposite sides and are supported on their mutually facing sides on a side boundary of a corner insulation profile and the two side boundaries of the corner insulation profile run at a predetermined angle to each other.

[033] In this way, a corner of a building made of panels, such as a winter garden, can be designed very elegantly. The corner is given a slightly delicate impression that does not dominate the entire building.

[034] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the side boundaries of the corner insulation profile, which extend at a predetermined angle to one another, are each loaded by a pressure plate of the respective post profile. In this way, a force-locking construction is created which is very stable in view of the forces that can be introduced via the pressure plates and nevertheless presents the viewer

Impression of a light corner construction.

[035] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the corner insulation profile is connected to at least one of the two post profiles in a form-fitting manner. This form-fitting connection prevents the corner construction from losing its strength if the screw connections become loose. A constant check of the existing screw connections is therefore not necessary.

[036] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the corner insulation profile has a recess on at least one of its two inner sides facing the post profiles, into which the adjacent post profile engages with a side boundary of the upper drainage channel. In this way, a high stability of the corner connection is created in the rigid area of the drainage channel and at the same time it is ensured that any water that penetrates can flow away via the drainage channel.

[037] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a seal is provided between the respective post profile and an adjacent inner side of the corner insulation profile. This seal ensures that no moisture can penetrate from the outside into the space enclosed by the panels in the area of the corner insulation profile.

[038] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, one of the two post profiles has a receptacle instead of a profile base, into which the other post profile engages with its lateral web facing the one post profile. This construction provides a very rigid lateral

The web creates a further form-fitting connection of the corner construction, which on the one hand can be easily installed and on the other hand gives the corner construction a high level of strength.

[039] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the holder is attached to a crosspiece extending below the lower drainage channel and delimiting it. Since this crosspiece is very strong, the holder can be loaded with relatively high forces without endangering the corner structures. In addition, the drainage channel is retained in this way, so that it is still ensured that any moisture that penetrates can drain away.

[040] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the crossbar engages into the recess of the corner insulation profile. This creates a further positive fit in the area of the corner insulation profile, which is beneficial to the strength of the overall construction.

[041] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the receptacle is designed as an angle guide which has a hook-shaped cross-section which is open in the direction of the lateral web of the other post profile which it receives. This hook-shaped design has the advantage that the individual post profiles can be joined together in a simple manner without having to carry out fitting work or having to fear that the corner construction does not engage with the necessary precision and thus lacks the necessary stability.

[042] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, in a profile for fastening a panel to a plane running at an adjustable angle thereto, a receiving profile is fastened to the panel, in which a connecting profile that can be connected to the panel is pivotably mounted. This profile enables a simple and durable construction that can be optimally adapted to local conditions. For example, roofs can be fastened to upwardly extending walls at a desired angle of inclination. This allows a desired roof slope to be set without having to forego an otherwise desired modular principle when using profiles.

[043] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a bearing shell pointing away from the plane is attached to the receiving profile, the inner cross section of which is adapted to an outer cross section of a pressure roller provided on the connecting profile. This mounting of the pressure roller within the bearing shell ensures that the roof pitch can be adjusted continuously. The positively locking surfaces of the bearing shell on the one hand and the pressure roller on the other hand are intended to prevent high surface pressures from occurring in this area of a roof suspension.

[044] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the receiving profile rests on the plane with compensation grooves to compensate for unevenness in the wall. These compensation grooves enable the receiving profile to form a permanent holder for a roof profile without the receiving profile being able to detach from the plane. The compensation grooves ensure that the receiving profile fits snugly on the plane.

[O4!5] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting profile is designed as a ridge bar, which has a

warid rib, the side of which is facing away from the receiving profile and has contact surfaces for supporting side panels. Such a ridge bar is very rigid, so that it is able to transfer large forces into the receiving profile. In this way, it is able to safely support panels designed as a roof, even if their weight increases considerably due to a high snow load, for example.

[046] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the side panels are screwed to the connecting profile and a screw channel extends transversely to the longitudinal direction of the connecting profile, into which a screw can be cut to connect the side panel. In this way, the connecting profile is not only suitable as a holder for a roof panel, but also for side panels, which are thus firmly connected in the middle of the panel designed as a roof surface and form a watertight unit.

[047] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a lower region of the connecting profile is provided which faces away from a roof surface supported on the connecting profile. This support of the roof surface in the lower part of the connecting profile ensures that the forces are introduced into the roller at a favorable point, so that the force can easily be absorbed by the bearing shell of the receiving profile.

[048] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the rib extends upwards in the direction of the roof surface and opens into the roller at its lower end facing away from the roof surface. In this way, the rib runs essentially in the direction of the force flow, so that even with a slim design, it can easily transfer the forces into the receiving profile without

that there is a risk of bending due to considerable bending moments.

[049] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, each is surrounded by a free space into which a free end of the bearing shell pointing away from the receiving profile engages when the connecting profile is pivoted about the longitudinal axis of the roller. This design of the rib ensures that the forces are introduced into the roller in a straight line, so that sharp deflections of the force flow can be avoided. Nevertheless, the roller has the freedom of movement within the bearing shell necessary for free adjustability.

[050] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the contact surfaces run perpendicular to the inclination of a roof surface formed by the plate. In this way, an optimal support for the mounting of the roof surface is created. This is held on a broad base so that there is no risk of it coming loose from the mounting.

[051] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the rib runs from the roller towards the contact surface and forms an acute angle with it. This design of the rib also serves to ensure an unhindered flow of force from the roof surface towards the roller. Due to the very acute angle, a gentle transfer of the forces is created.

[052] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting profile has a groove at its upper end facing away from the roller for receiving a T-connector. With the help of this T-connector, a large-area

Support of the roof surface is achieved. In addition, the T-connector can be held securely in the groove without the need for additional mounting devices.

[053] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting profile is provided with an insulator at its upper end facing away from the roller, which extends into an insulator foot formed on the connecting profile. This design of the connecting profile enables it to use the proven connection via an insulator. This connection technology via an insulator is used for all profiles, so that it can be applied simply and inexpensively.

[054] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, at least one receptacle for a sunshade opens into the contact surface. In this way, the sunshade can be conveniently stored in a particularly convenient location and thus be easily operated. With this storage of the sunshade, a very effective shield against excessive solar radiation as well as a selectable cladding and effective glare and privacy protection are achieved.

[055] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the lower of the two receptacles is followed by a groove receptacle in which extensions of the connecting profile can be fastened in the direction of a wall connection. This groove receptacle further increases the flexibility of the entire profile system, which can be extended to the wall connection with the help of the groove receptacle.

[056] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the rib is connected to the contact surfaces by a cast web structure. These web structures stiffen the rib in the direction of the forces it has to absorb, so that it has a high moment of resistance against bending forces that occur. At the same time, the web structures offer a good starting point for the attachment of the various grooves.

[057] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting profile is provided with lateral webs at its upper end on both sides of the insulator base. These lateral webs also represent a generally used structural solution which, on the one hand, increases the strength of the connecting profile and, on the other hand, improves the connection options to the adjoining roof surface.

[053] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a seal that seals against a roof panel is provided in at least one of the lateral webs. This general technique has also proven to be effective in the entire profile system.

[059] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the roof panel is supported on one of two lateral webs, one of which extends to the side of the insulator base and at least one of the webs holds an inner glazing seal, this inner glazing seal thus forms a good seal against the panel to be sealed, so that sufficient protection against condensation is also ensured.

[060] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a connecting profile is screwed to at least one of the lateral webs, which extends from the upper end of the connecting profile in the direction of the plane. With the help of this connecting profile, a connection is made between the connecting profile and the plane, so that a continuous roof surface extends up to the plane. According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, an intermediate space is provided between the connecting profile and the roof panel, in which the insulator is arranged, which is sealed by seals on the one hand to the roof panel and on the other hand to the connecting profile. In this way, the proven fastening technology with the help of the insulator is used, which leads to a simple, permanent and also watertight connection being created between individual components.

[061] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting profile is designed as a multi-chamber profile. This multi-chamber profile has the advantage that it is light on the one hand and very dimensionally stable on the other, so that it can be used without any problem in a large number of different cases to connect the roof panel to the plane.

[062] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting profile has a locking lug locked in the insulator. This fastening technique also satisfies the general need for easy assembly. In this way, it can be achieved that the entire structure is erected according to criteria that are similar to one another and can be quickly learned.

[063] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting profile is provided on its surface facing away from the lateral webs with two locking lugs protruding from this surface for locking a cover shell covering the intermediate space. The use of these cover shells also corresponds to the usual criteria in profile technology. It leads to a permanent seal of the intermediate space, which is thus protected against moisture and dirt.

[064] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the cover shell rests against the plane with a sealing tab and acts on it in a sealing manner. However, this sealing shell not only has the desired sealing function. Rather, the cover shell can also be grasped by this sealing tab and lifted off for inspection work.

[065] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the cover shell is supported on the one hand on the plane and on the other hand on an upper edge of a bar rising on the cover plate. In this way, the cover plate harmoniously adapts to the construction details of the profile construction and sits well guided between the plane on the one hand and the adjacent bar on the other.

[066] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the profile can be designed as a locking profile, with the aid of which an end edge facing a floor is attached to an anchor embedded in a floor. On the one hand, this box profile has a high inherent rigidity and can therefore absorb introduced forces well. On the other hand, the box profile has a high thermal insulation value, so that with its help a flow of heat towards the floor is prevented.

- 19-

[067] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, further profile parts can be fastened to the box profile. In this way, the box profile is used to be able to attach the profile parts in a simple manner and to guide them in the desired manner.

[068] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the box profile has two side surfaces that run parallel to one another and are raised on the floor, which are connected to one another by a head surface and a bottom surface that each run approximately horizontally. In this way, a cubic box is created that is particularly well suited as a basis for the further fastening of profile parts.

[069] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the base plate projects beyond at least one of the two side surfaces with a fastening projection which has an anchor groove through which the anchor projects towards the floor. This fastening projection makes it unnecessary to directly penetrate the floor surface for the purpose of fastening the profile to an anchor. As a result, the box profile retains its entire rigidity without adversely affecting the fastening to the anchor.

[070] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the anchor groove is designed as a U-profile that is open towards the ground and through the yoke of which a bore that receives the anchor extends. By designing the fastening attachment in the form of a U-profile, the rigidity of the fastening attachment is promoted and an optimal support of the fastening attachment is achieved in the region of the legs.

[071] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the fastening attachment is provided with a locking device for receiving a cover closure at its end facing away from the box profile. In this way, the fastening attachment is given an additional function of receiving the cover closure. This forms a tight and, on the one hand, an attractive closure of the fastening connection.

[072] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the cover closure is designed as a U-profile, the legs of which are provided with a counter-grid that accommodates the locking device on their inner surfaces facing one another. Due to this design of the cover closure, this and the fastening attachment enclose a space in which the anchor is well shielded against dirt on the one hand and can be easily reached with the appropriate tool on the other. This space also serves to guide electrical cables and heating components.

[073] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the cover closure engages with its leg facing away from the floor in a locking device of a base bolt which extends above the head surface and is supported on it. This base bolt holds the box profile in an enclosed space and protects it against dirt and other adverse effects. The base bolt spans the entire base fastening of the profile system, so that all individual profile parts which are necessary for anchoring the system are clearly covered and protected against harmful influences.

[074] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the base bolt is screwed at its end facing away from the cover end to the edge of the plate facing the floor. In this way, the end edge receives the necessary guidance to avoid undesirable movements. On the other hand, according to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the base bolt is braced against the plate with the help of an insulator. The screw connection in an insulator foot, which is usual in the profile system, is used to attach the insulator. This connection technology achieves a high level of connection security. In addition, a cover plate covering the insulator can also be used in the

Insulator can be locked.

[075] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the insulator foot is formed on a connector attached to the base bar, which projects over the plate on its inside with a lateral web and is provided with a fastening groove in which a glazing seal resting on the plate is held. This design of the base bar also uses a general design principle of profile technology. The connector running transversely to the base bar serves on the one hand to accommodate the insulator foot and on the other hand a fastening groove in which the glazing seal is guided so that it rests on the plate to be sealed.

[076] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the insulator is sealed on its side facing the end edge with a seal opposite the end edge and on its opposite side with a seal opposite a base insulation profile. This design of the insulator with two seals opposite one another also applies a general design principle of profile technology, by means of which air chambers are created.

The air enclosed in these air chambers is used as an insulating medium, so that a high level of thermal insulation is achieved, which allows classification according to RMG1.

[077] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the base insulation profile is provided with a controlled water drainage from the box profile in the direction of the cover plate locked in the insulator. This cover plate rests on a support surface provided on the base insulation profile. This controlled water drainage ensures that any condensation and leakage water that may form is drained away from the enclosed interior to the outside. The base insulation profile is well suited for this because it is made of plastic and is therefore not very sensitive to moisture.

[078] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the support surface extends in a plane with an outer surface of the plate. This achieves, on the one hand, a good alignment of the base insulation profile with respect to the plate and, on the other hand, a flat support surface for the cover plate is created. This thereby seals with an outer surface of the plate and, on the other hand, with the support surface, so that a good sealing effect is achieved.

[079] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the cover plate rests against the outer surface of the plate and the support surface with seals. These seals ensure that, under the influence of the locking projection, a good seal is achieved between the cover plate on the one hand and the plate or the support surface of the base insulation profile.

[080] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the controlled water drain slopes down from the box profile towards the cover plate. This slight slope is sufficient to lead any moisture that may accumulate from the interior to the outside.

[081] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the base insulation profile is designed as a box profile which is delimited on the one hand by the water drain and on the other hand by a bottom side facing the ground, and the controlled water drain and the bottom side are connected to one another by transverse walls. In this way, the base insulation profile also acts as an insulator against both moisture and cold. The transverse walls give the base insulation profile a high level of strength which is suitable for incorporating the base insulation profile as an essential design feature in a substructure construction. The bottom surface of the box profile is expediently aligned so that it runs in a plane spanned by a bottom surface of the box profile.

[082] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, screw channels extend through the underside of the base insulation profile transversely to its longitudinal direction, which, according to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, serve to attach lateral boundaries to the base insulation profile. In this way, the base insulation profile forms a closed unit that acts as an insulator against moisture and cold and also forms an attractive finish for the foundation of the building.

[083] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the base insulation profile is located with a seal on the side surface of the channel facing it.

steriprofils. Through this connection, the box profile on the one hand and the base insulation profile on the other hand form a structural unit that benefits from the strength of the box profile on the one hand and achieves a good sealing effect on the other hand, thus providing a solid foundation for the entire structure.

[084] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the base insulation profile has a receptacle for a window sill in the area of its transverse wall facing away from the box profile. This possibility of connecting a window sill to the base insulation profile also leads to water running off being directed away from the structure, so that the foundation can be kept dry even outside the base insulation profile.

[085] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the holder for the window sill is designed as a groove which is open in a direction facing away from the box profile and on whose lateral boundaries a leg of a window sill can be placed, the other leg of which has an inclination running diagonally downwards to the plane of the floor surface. This design of the holder ensures that the window sill is firmly guided, which aligns it in the direction of the draining water. At the same time, it is prevented that splash water from the window sill can reach the area of the base insulation profile.

[086] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a screw channel running transversely to the longitudinal direction of the controlled water drainage is provided in the transverse wall of the base insulation profile facing away from the box profile, the wall of which has a corner connection groove with an inner surface of the controlled water drainage for receiving a two base insulation profiles connecting one another.

This design of the interior space enclosed by the base insulation profile enables the use of a general connection technique with the help of which two adjacent base insulation profiles are connected to one another. For this purpose, a plastic connector is used which is guided in a corner connection groove. The guidance within the corner connection groove means that two base insulation profiles guided on the same corner connector form a closely coordinated unit and are watertight at the mitre point by gluing both base insulation profiles and the plastic connector.

[087] Further details of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings, in which preferred embodiments of the invention are illustrated by way of example.

[089] A profile (1) consists essentially of a profile lower part (2) and a profile upper part (3) which, in the assembled state, is connected to the profile lower part (2) via a fastening means (4). The profile lower part (2) has two side walls (5, 6) which run essentially parallel to one another and enclose an interior space (7). The side walls (5, 6) are braced against one another by connectors (8, 9), of which an upper one (8) delimits the interior space (7) at the top and a lower one (9) delimits the interior space (7) at the bottom, so that the profile lower part (2) forms a rigid box profile.

[090] Two lateral webs (10, 11) extend from the connector (8) in the direction of the upper profile part (3), between which a central web (12) rises. Fastening grooves (13) are provided in each of the lateral webs (10, 11), in which inner glazing seals (14) are held. For this purpose, longitudinal grooves (15) are provided in the glazing seals (14), which are engaged behind by corresponding projections (16), so that the glazing seals (14) rest securely in the fastening grooves (13). Pressure surfaces (48) are provided on these glazing seals (14) on their surfaces (17) facing the upper profile part (3), which are provided with support elevations (18), for example grooves running in the longitudinal direction of the glazing seals (14). Plates (19, 20) rest on these support elevations (18) and are held within the profiles (1). These plates (19, 20) can be designed as insulating glass panes.

[091] The plates (19, 20) lie opposite one another on the glazing seals (14) with their adjacent end edges (21, 22) running parallel to one another. They run at a mutual distance which is predetermined by the mutual distance of the lateral webs (10, 11) from one another. This distance (23) of the edges (21, 22) from one another is chosen to be large enough that both an insulator (24) and a seal (25) can be arranged in an intermediate space (49) corresponding to this distance (23). The insulator (24) has an upper (26) and a lower guide opening (27). The fastening means (4) extends through both guide openings (26, 27) into an insulator foot (28) which is connected to the insulator (24) and extends into a recess (29) provided in the central web (12). The screw designed as a fastening means (4) projects with its tip (30) into this insulator foot (28).

[092] The screw head (31) opposite the tip (30) acts on a pressure plate (32) which is designed as the base of the upper profile part (3). This pressure plate (32) has recesses (33, 34) on its underside facing the plates (19, 20) in which outer glazing rubbers (35, 36) are fastened. These outer glazing rubbers (35, 36) act on the end edges (21, 22) of the plates (19, 20) when the screw is screwed into the insulator base (28).

[093] The pressure plate (32) is covered by a cover shell (37) (see Fig. 1, 2 and 4). This cover shell (37) has clamping projections (38, 39) which engage in corresponding recesses (40, 41) when the cover shell (37) is placed on the pressure plate (32). The cover shell (37) is supported by opposing walls (42, 43) of the pressure plate (32) so that the cover shell (37) projects beyond the walls (42, 43). This ensures that

·

the fastening means (4) are protected against moisture when the cover shell (37) is in place. In order to ensure that the cover shell (37) is securely seated, the recesses (40, 41) are delimited by intermediate walls (44, 45) between which the resilient clamping projections (38, 39) snap into place.

[094] The seal (25) is connected to the insulator (24) by means of clamping projections (53). These clamping projections (53) protrude with a thickening into recesses (54) which are provided in a head plate (55) of the seal (25). In this way, the seal (25) is adjusted relative to the insulator (24).

[095] Three flags (56, 57, 58) protrude from the head plate (55) in the direction of the end edges (21, 22), at the end of which facing away from the head plate (55) pressure surfaces (59) are provided, with which the flags (56, 57, 58) rest against the end edges (21, 22). Air chambers (60, 61) are enclosed between the individual flags (56, 57, 58).

[096] In addition, there is a clip (63) made of spring steel in the intermediate space (49). This clip (63) is supported with its upper end (64) facing the upper guide opening (26) of the insulator (24) on grid projections (65) which protrude from the outer sides of the insulator (24) in the direction of the end edges (21, 22). Supporting legs (66) extend from these upper ends (64) in the direction of the end edges (21, 22), at which the supporting leg (66) is bent approximately at a right angle, so that a middle piece

(77) extends again from the end edges (21, 22) in the direction of the insulator (24), where it is again angled in the direction of an end piece (68).

• ·· &iacgr;&idigr; ·

- 29-

[097] Due to this multiple support of the clip (63), it exerts a pressure on the end edges (21, 22) which adjusts these end edges (21, 22) so that they are precisely adjusted with respect to the insulator (24). In this position, the screw as a fastening means is screwed through the upper and lower guide openings (26, 27) of the insulator (24) into the insulator base (28) so that it exerts a pressure on the end edges (21, 22) via the pressure plate (32) which fixes the plates (19, 20). In view of the adjustment of the end edges (21, 22) achieved in this way, the clip (63) serves to facilitate assembly.

[098] The cover shell (37) can also be designed as a hood, from whose cover surface (69) two side walls (70, 71) extend in the direction of the pressure plate (32). The pressure plate (32) has two locking projections (72, 73) adjacent to the side walls (70, 71) which protrude in the direction of the side walls (70, 71). Corresponding geisgen grids (74, 75) which are provided on the side walls (70, 71) and which lock into place when the cover shell (37) is placed on top of it, lock onto these locking projections (72, 73).

[099] Furthermore, the insulator (24) can also be fastened by selecting a screw (76) that is so short that, after screwing its tip (30) into the insulator base (28), its head (77) disappears into an air space (50) of the insulator (24). For this purpose, the head (77) is provided with a relatively small diameter, so that the screw (76) with its head (77) fits through the upper guide opening (26) of the insulator (24). The head (77) is provided with a conical taper (78) in the direction of the tip (30), with which the screw (76) that has penetrated the insulator base (28) rests on a corresponding pressure surface (79) that is conically tapered in the direction of the insulator base (28). After the screw (76) has been firmly screwed into the insulator base (28), its head (77) fills the air space (50) at most

- 30-

up to half. In this way, it is possible for a locking mechanism (80) to engage in the air space (50), at the end of which two grid projections (81) are provided that protrude into the air space (50). These grid projections (81) protrude under two counter projections (90) provided in the air space (50), which protrude into the air space (50) in walls surrounding the air space (50).

[100] A thin plate is attached to the locking mechanism (80) as a profile upper part (3), which is fitted parallel within a recess (91) which is in a

&iacgr;&ogr; a profile connector (92) connecting two profiles (1) is provided. This runs in the direction of a bar (47) connecting two posts (46). A cover plate (93) covering the gap (49) provided between two end edges (21, 22) to which the grid projection (89) is attached is designed to be so flat that it does not protrude beyond a recess (91) made in the profile connector (92).

[101] The posts (46) are provided with a multifunctional groove (95) at their end (94) opposite the central web (12). This is shaped like a T and has a slot (97) extending into a lower part (96) which widens into a beam-shaped space (98) widening on both sides of a central line (97). This multifunctional groove (95) can be used, for example, to connect the profile (1) to another profile which has a T-shaped connecting piece which can be inserted into the beam-shaped space (98). In addition, all types of cables can be laid through the multifunctional groove (95), for example power cables and television cables.

[102] In addition, the post (46) has two guide grooves (99, 100) in the area of its lower part (96) in the two opposite side walls (5, 6) which are intended to accommodate a sunshade (not shown). For this purpose, the two guide grooves (99, 100) have an approximately elliptical cross-section which is provided with an access slot (101) approximately at the middle height of the guide grooves (99, 100). The elliptical cross-section is dimensioned such that the guide grooves (99, 100) are approximately circularly rounded in both their upper and lower parts. A sunshade wound up into a roll can be guided in this part, the beginning of which is led out of the access slot (101).

[103] The connector (9) runs approximately in the area of the upper part of the guide grooves (99, 100), which, among other things, delimits the interior space (7). Above this connector (9), screw channels (102, 103) extend in the longitudinal direction of the profile (1), into which screws (not shown) can be inserted. When screwed in, these screws cut into the screw channels (102, 103) and can thus press two channels that are to be connected together into one another.

[104] Approximately at the level of the screw channels (102, 103), side pockets (104, 105) begin, running parallel to the side walls (5, 6), into which connecting plates (not shown) can be inserted. These connecting plates are guided in a form-fitting manner in the approximately rectangular profile side pockets (104, 105) and are used, for example, to connect two profiles (1) to be connected to one another in a way that is invisible from the outside. For this purpose, comparatively short webs (106, 107) are formed in the area of the upper and lower boundaries of the side pockets (104, 105), between which and an inner surface of the side walls (5, 6) the connecting plates (not shown) are inserted.

become.

[105] The upper webs (106) and the adjoining horizontal guide projections (108, 109) define an upper boundary of the interior space (7) into which a profile part (not shown) to be connected to the profile (1) can be inserted. This is guided in its lower partial guide surfaces facing the multifunctional groove (95), which form the screw channels (102, 103).

[106] Drainage channels (110, 111) run directly above the guide projections (108, 109) and have a cross-section that largely tapers downwards in the direction of the multifunctional groove (95). These drainage channels are limited downwards by the guide projection (108, 109), while in the upward direction they are limited on the one hand by the side walls (5, 6) and on their opposite sides by ribs (112, 113) that lead to the upper part of the profile (3). The central web (12) begins between the two ribs (112, 113), in the lower part of which a screw channel (114) with a rectangular cross-section is embedded, which extends in the longitudinal direction of the profile (1).

[107] The drainage channels (110, 111) have, on their side facing away from the central web (12), a passage (115, 116) extending through the respective side wall (5, 6), through which a respective lower plate part (117, 118) extends into a collecting space (119, 120) extending above the drainage channel (110, 111). The condensate brought about via the lower plate parts (117, 118) enters the drainage channels (110, 111) through this collecting space (119, 120).

ii 08] Above the drainage channels (110, 111) there are internal drainage channels (121, 122) for leakage water. These are separated from the inner space (7) by the upper connector (8). The lateral webs (10, 11) are provided as lateral boundaries of the upper drainage channels (121, 122).

[109] The upper drainage channels open upwards into the intermediate space (49) in which the seals (25) and the insulator (24) are arranged in the assembled state. If, in the event of a leak, for example, small amounts of water penetrate past the seal (25) into the upper drainage channel (121, 122), the water can be drained away through these upper drainage channels (121, 122).

[110] The profile (1) is suitable for the production of light and narrow corner structures. These are necessary when panels (19, 20) are arranged at an angle to one another, for example in planes that meet at a right angle (123). In order to be able to produce such corner structures (124) in a stable and durable manner, a post (127, 128) is arranged in each plane (125, 126). Each of these two posts (127, 128) has a central plane (129, 130). These central planes are perpendicular to one another when the planes (125, 126) form the right angle (123).

[111] Between the two posts (127, 128) there is a corner insulation profile (131) which, with its side borders (132, 133), forms the same angle (123) as the planes (125, 126). This corner insulation profile (131) consists of several chambers which have a high thermal insulation value. The chambers are

i 4« IT ·í·· *·· *·

- 34-

thin walls made of plastic. Each of the chambers forms a hollow profile that has a high degree of rigidity, so that the corner insulation profile (131) is also very rigid and therefore well suited to forming a corner. By using this corner insulation profile (131) the entire structure is given a light and very elegant touch.

[112] The corner insulation profile (131) has a substantially rectangular cross-section. One side wall (133) is longer than the other side wall (132). The posts (127, 128) extend with their central planes

β (129, 130) parallel to inner side walls (134, 135) which run parallel to the outer side walls (132, 133). The post (127) running parallel to the inner side wall (135) is designed to be shorter than the other post (128) by the amount of the post bottom section (2). It ends with a crosspiece (136) extending below the lower drainage channel (110) which closes off an air chamber (137) which opens directly into the screw channel (114). A receptacle (138) is attached to this crosspiece (136) in a direction facing away from the air chamber (137), into which receptacle the post (128) extending parallel to the shorter side wall (134) engages with its lateral web (10) facing the shorter post (127). For this purpose, the holder (138) is designed as an angle guide which has a hook-shaped cross-section which is open in the direction of the lateral web (10) of the longer post profile (128) which is to be held by it. The lateral web (10) projects into this hook-shaped cross-section and is pushed into the holder (138) along a downwardly extending hook-shaped end (139). The lateral web (10) is limited on its side facing away from the hook-shaped end (139) by a guide nose (140), between the end of which and the hook-shaped end (139) there is sufficient space for inserting the lateral web (10) into the holder (138).

- 35 -

[113] A guide end (141) is aligned with the end of the guide nose (140), which extends beyond the crosspiece (136) in the course of a wall (142) that delimits the lower drainage channel (110). An outer wall (143) that delimits the longer post (128) is guided along the guide nose (140) and the guide end (141). In this way, the lateral web (10) sits tightly and in a form-fitting manner within the receptacle (138).

[114] The crosspiece (136) is guided on its end (144) facing away from the drainage channel (110) in a recess (145) which is provided in the area of the inner side wall (135) in the corner insulation profile (131). In addition, a side wall (146) which delimits the upper drainage channel (121) also projects into this recess (145) and is guided together with the end (144) in the recess (145). The recess (145) is drawn so deeply into the corner insulation profile (131) that the side wall (146) and the end (144) of the crosspiece (136) are guided in a form-fitting manner in the recess (145). There is no possibility of the post (127) moving away from the corner insulation profile (131). In the area of the receptacle (138) and the recess (145), the two posts (127, 128) are guided against each other in a form-fitting manner.

[11 5] To maintain this form-fitting connection, the two posts (127, 128) are also subjected to a force-fitting action. This force-fitting action causes the two posts (127, 128) to be mutually drawn into the respective form-fitting receptacles (138, 145). Pressure plates (32) are used to create the force-fitting connection, through which screws (147, 148) protrude and are screwed to the respective insulator foot (149, 150). These pressure plates (32) rest on the one hand on the plates (19, 20) with seals (151, 152) that lead into the corner construction (124). On the other hand, the pressure plates (32) are supported on the corner insulation profile (131). This is designed to accommodate the pressure plates (32)

• t

-36-

applied forces are surrounded by an angled cover plate (153) on which the seals (154, 155) fastened in the pressure plates (32) rest. The pressure plates (32) extend above the gaps (49) that accommodate the insulator (24), the clip (63) and the seals (25). The gaps (49) are covered by sealing tape (156, 157) that rests on the plates (19, 20) on the one hand and on the angled cover plate (153) on the other. These sealing tapes (156, 157) are also acted upon by the seals (154, 155).

[116] In a particular embodiment of the profile (1), it is suitable for fastening a plate (158) to an approximately vertical plane (160) running at an adjustable angle (159). Such a profile (1) consists of a receiving profile (161) and a connecting profile (162) that can be brought into engagement with the latter. This connecting profile (162) can be connected to the plate (158). It is pivotably mounted in the receiving profile (161).

[117] The receiving profile (161) is provided with a bearing shell (163) pointing away from the plane (160); this bearing shell (163) has an inner cross-section (164) which corresponds to an outer cross-section (165) of a pressure roller (166) which is pivotably mounted in the bearing shell (163). The pressure roller (166) is fastened to a lower end (167) of the connecting profile (162) in the vertical direction. The connecting profile (162) extends from this lower end (167) in the direction of the plate (158) fastened to its upper end (168). This plate (158) can, for example, be designed as a glass plate for forming a roof.

[118] The bearing shell (163) forms a lower limit (169) of the receiving profile (161) which is attached to the plane (160) in an approximately vertical direction. This is attached to the plane (160) using screw connections (170, 171), for example. The receiving profile (161) rests against the plane (160) with compensation grooves (172, 173). In this way, any unevenness in the plane (160) can be compensated for.

[119] The compensating profile (161) has on its side (174) facing away from the plane (160) in the direction of the connecting profile locked in the bearing shell (163)

(162) facing screw channels (175, 176). These run essentially transversely to the longitudinal direction of the receiving profile (161) in an approximately horizontal direction. Connecting screws (not shown) can be cut into these screw channels (175, 176), with the aid of which, for example, side plates (177) piled up in a vertical plane can be screwed to the receiving profile (161).

These side plates (177) can laterally delimit a roof area formed by the plate (158).

[120] The connecting profile (162) can be designed, for example, as a ridge bar supporting the plate (158). This is connected to the receiving profile

(161) facing side as a supporting rib (178) which transmits the forces introduced by the plate (158) into the connecting profile (162) via the pressure roller (166) and the bearing shell (163) into the receiving profile (161) and from there via the screw connections (170, 171) into the plane (160). For this purpose, the rib (178) has a design which is suitable for safely absorbing the forces occurring with a usual roof pitch (179) of approximately 75° to 89° and being able to transmit them into the receiving profile (161). For this purpose, the supporting rib (178) is bent in its upper third facing the plate (158) by approximately 8° to 10° in the direction of the receiving profile (161). This gives

-38-

the connecting profile (162) in this upper part has a direction which runs approximately at a right angle to the inclination of the plate (158). In this way, in this upper region of the connecting profile (162), the supporting rib (178) is designed to be approximately plane-parallel to a bearing surface (180) in which both the plate (158) and the side plates (177) are attached to the connecting profile (162).

[121] In contrast, the connecting profile (162) runs in its lower part (162) with a greater inclination to the plane (160) than at its upper end (168). This greater inclination in the area of the lower end (167) keeps the connecting profile outside of a free space required for the receiving profile (161). In this area, the supporting rib (178) is provided with a larger cross-section than in the area of the upper end (168).

[122] The supporting rib (178) opens into the pressure roller (166) in the area of the lower end (167). The opening is provided in an area of the pressure roller (166) facing the receiving profile (161). On the side of the pressure roller (166) facing away from the receiving profile (161), the latter is surrounded by a free space (182) delimited by a web (181) which is large enough to ensure that the bearing shell (163) has sufficient free space when the connecting profile (162) is pivoted. The web (181) delimits a receptacle (183) which opens into the contact surface (180) via an opening (184). This receptacle (183) serves to hold a lower sunshade which serves to shield the sun's rays which penetrate through the roof surface designed as a glass plate (158) into a space formed below the roof surface. In addition, an upper receptacle (185) is formed in the contact surface (180), in which an upper sun protection device can be stored.

- 39 -

[123] Finally, in the contact surface (180) connected to the rib (178) via further webs (181), a receptacle (186) is provided, into which a T-shaped connector (not shown) can be inserted. For this purpose, the receptacle (186) has a cross-section that corresponds to a crossbar of the T-connector. Two hook-shaped ends, each of which lies within the contact surface (180), point towards each other. They are spaced apart by a distance through which a longitudinal leg of the T-shaped profile extends, extending approximately parallel to the plate (158).

[124] In the area of its upper end (168), the connecting profile (162) is provided with two lateral webs (10, 11) which extend perpendicularly to the contact surface (180). The lateral web (10) extending in the direction of the plate (158) is designed as a receptacle for an inner glazing seal (14) on which the plate (158) rests. The other lateral web (11) pointing in the opposite direction is penetrated by a screw (187) which serves to attach a connecting profile (188) to the connecting profile (162). This connecting profile consists of a total of three chambers (189, 190, 191), each of which is separated from one another by plastic walls (192, 193). The connection profile (188) is delimited in a direction facing away from the connecting profile (162) by an upper cover surface (194), to which a lower boundary surface (195) runs approximately parallel. Both the upper cover surface (194) and the lower boundary surface (195) extend approximately parallel to boundaries (196, 197) of the plate (158). Accordingly, the cover surface (194) and the boundary surface (195) are inclined relative to a horizontal line corresponding to the plate (158). The upper cover surface (194) is connected to the lower boundary surface (195) in the region of the plane (160) by a connecting surface (198) which runs approximately plane-parallel to the vertical plane (160).

-40-

[125] Opposite the connecting surface (198), the upper cover surface (194) and the lower boundary surface (195) are connected to one another by a connector (199) which runs approximately parallel to an end edge (21) of the plate (158). The plastic wall (192) which separates the two chambers (189, 190) from one another opens into the connector (199). In this way, the connecting surface (198), the plastic wall (193) and the connector (199), which are each connected to one another by the upper cover surface (194) and the lower boundary surface (195), as well as the plastic wall (192) create a very dimensionally stable connection profile (188) which has a high insulation value due to the chambers (189, 190, 191). The screw (187) extends through the upper cover surface (194), the plastic wall (192) and the lower boundary surface (195), which run approximately parallel to one another, and is screwed to the lateral web (11). The lower boundary surface (195) has a design corresponding to the lateral web (11), which is guided on the lateral web (11).

[12(3] The upper cover surface (194) is extended beyond the connector (199) in the direction of the plate (158). This extension (200) projects into a gap (49) which extends between the end edge (21), the plate (158) and the connector (199). On the one hand, a locking lug (201) projects downwards from this extension (200) into the gap (49). On the other hand, an upwardly pointing locking lug (202) rises on the extension (200), with a rear locking lug (203) attached in the area of the plastic wall (193) running approximately parallel to it. These two locking lugs (202, 203) have catches pointing away from each other which serve to engage corresponding locking lugs (204, 205). These locking lugs (204, 205) are at a lower limit (206) a ridge cover shell (207) which extends above the gap (49) and the connecting profile (88) and rests against the vertical plane (160) with a connection limit (208). This ridge cover shell (207) seals the connecting profile (188) and the gap (49) at the top. It rests with a support surface

-41 -

before (209) on an edge of a post pressure cover strip (210) extending above the plate (158). Opposite this post pressure cover strip (210), the ridge cover shell (207) is also supported by a lateral limit so that it is firmly clamped between this lateral limit (211) and the two locking lugs (204, 205) so that it creates a firm contact with the plane (160) with the connection limit (208).

[127] The ridge cover shell (207) consists of two air chambers (212, 213) separated from each other by walls, so that it has a very rigid characteristic. On the connection limit (208) there is a flag (214) pointing in the direction of the plate (158), which on the one hand enlarges the contact surface of the connection limit (208) and on the other hand serves as a handle for lifting the ridge cover shell.

[128] As already in connection with the post (46) and the bolt (47), an insulator (24) is arranged in the intermediate space (49), which extends into an insulator foot (28). This insulator foot (28) extends between the lateral webs (10, 11) at the upper end (168) of the connecting profile (162). The lower locking lug (201) extends from above into the insulator (24), which is attached to the extension

(200) of the connection profile (188). This locking lug (201) can be locked within the insulator (24) to a counter projection (90) which is provided within the insulator (24).

[129] In addition, the insulator (24) is sealed with seals (25) against the connector (199) of the connection profile (188) and against the end edge (21) of the plate (158).

[130] To install a roof panel (158), the receiving profile (161) is first attached to the plane (160) using the screw connections (170, 171). The connecting profile (162) is then aligned according to a desired inclination of the roof panel (158) and inserted with its pressure roller (166) into the bearing shell (163). The insulator (24) is attached to the upper end (168) of the connecting profile (162) in the insulator base (28) and sealed with the aid of the seals (25) against the end edge (21) of the panel (158). In addition, the panel (158) is placed on the glazing seal attached in the side web (10) so that the panel (158) is sealed against the connecting profile (162). The connecting profile (188) is now screwed to the side web (11) so that its connecting surface (198) rests against the plane (160). Finally, the ridge cover shell (207) is fixed between the support surface (209) of the bar (210) and the two locking lugs (202, 203) of the connecting profile (188). This creates a moisture-tight connection of the connection limit (208) to the plane (160) in conjunction with elastic fillers (wall connection).

[131] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the profile is also suitable for forming a floor finish for a structure with the profile (1). This floor finish (215) consists essentially of a box profile (217) designed as a base rail (216). This can be connected to a floor via an anchor (219) and consists essentially of two side surfaces (220, 221) which run approximately parallel to one another and which rise on the floor (218) approximately in a vertical plane. These side surfaces (220, 221) are connected to one another in the area of the floor by a floor surface (222) and on their side facing away from the floor surface (222) by a head surface (223). The floor surface (222) and the head surface (223) run approximately parallel to one another in a horizontal plane. The surfaces (220, 221, 222, 223) enclose a rectangular cross-section (224).

-43-

[132] The base surface (222) projects beyond one of the two side surfaces (220, 221) with a fastening projection (225). The anchor (219) extending into the base (218) extends through this fastening projection (225). For this purpose, there is a U-shaped anchor groove (226) in the fastening projection (225), in the yoke (227) of which a hole is formed through which the anchor (219) extends into the base (218). The anchor groove (226) is supported on its two legs (228, 229), so that in the area of the anchor groove (226) a horizontal support of the base surface (222) on the base (218) can be expected.

[133] The fastening projection (225) projects beyond the anchor groove (226) with its end (230) facing away from the box profile (217). At this end (230), the fastening projection (225) is provided with a locking device (231). This has a projection (232) pointing towards the floor (218), to which an inclined sliding surface (233) leads.

[134] This locking device (231) is used to fasten a cover closure (234) which is designed as a U-profile. The two legs (235, 236) of this U-profile are designed as counter-grids (237) on their inner sides facing each other. These also each have inclined sliding surfaces (238) with which the counter-grids (237) slide over the inclined sliding surfaces (233) of the locking device (231) when the cover closure (234) is pushed onto the end (230) of the fastening attachment (225).

[135] The lid closure (234) slides with its leg (236) facing away from the base (218) over a locking device (239) which closes a base bolt (240) running parallel to the head surface (223) approximately at the level of the end (230). In this way, the lid closure (234) connects with its two

-44-

Legs (235, 236) connect the fastening attachment (225) to the base bolt (240). It closes off an interior space (241) which extends approximately the width of the fastening attachment (225) between the box profile (217) and the cover closure (234).

[136] The base bolt (240) is braced at its end (242) facing away from the cover end (234) against a lower end (243) of a plate (19) facing the base (218). For this purpose, a connector (244) is provided on the base bolt (240) in the area of the end (242), the plane of which runs essentially in a vertical direction. A recess (29) is provided on this connector (244), into which an insulator (24) projects with its insulator foot (28). With the help of this insulator (24), the base bolt (240) is braced to the plate (19) via the cover plate (93). The cover plate (93) projects via locking projections (89) into the insulator (24), in the interior of which the locking projections (89) are locked.

[137] The connector (244) projects with a lateral web (11) beyond the lower end (243) of the plate (19). A fastening groove (13) is formed in the lateral web (11) in which a glazing seal (14) is held. This glazing seal (14) is pressed against the plate (19) on its inner side facing an interior space, so that it prevents any condensation that may form on the plate (19) from penetrating into the intermediate space (49) in which the insulator (24) is arranged.

[138] The insulator (24) is sealed against the plate (19) on its side facing the end edge (21) with a seal (25). On its opposite side, the insulator (24) has a seal (25) which seals the gap (49) against a base insulation profile (245). The seal (25) rests on

an upper edge of the base insulation profile (245) designed as a water drain (246). This controlled water drain (246) extends with a slight incline from the box profile (217) in the direction of the cover plate (93) locked in the insulator (24). This cover plate (93) rests on a

(245) provided support surface (247). In this case, sealing strips (248, 249) are located between the cover plate (93) and the plate (19) and the support surface (247) to prevent water from penetrating into the gap (49). The support surface (247) runs in the same plane as an outer surface of the plate (19). As a result, a level contact of the cover plate (93) can be expected both in the area of the support surface (247) and on the plate (19).

[139] The base insulation profile (349) is designed as a box profile, which is limited on the one hand by the water drain (246) and on the other hand by a bottom side (250) facing the floor (218). The water drain (246) is connected to the bottom side

(250) are connected to one another by four transverse walls (251, 252, 253, 254). This gives the base insulation profile (245) a very rigid character. In the course of the transverse walls (251, 252, 253, 254) screw channels (255, 256, 257, 258) are provided that run in the longitudinal direction of the base insulation profile (245). Screws (not shown) for fastening side walls (not shown) can be screwed into these screw channels (255, 256, 257, 258). These side walls limit the lateral extension of the base insulation profile (245). The underside (250) of the base insulation profile (245) runs in a plane of the box profile (217) that is spanned by the floor surface (222). This ensures that the entire floor finish (215) rests on the floor (218) over a large area. The screw channels (256, 257) provided in the transverse walls (252, 253) open towards the underside (250). This ensures that the side cover of the base insulation profile (245) (not shown) fits tightly against the base insulation profile (245), particularly near the floor (218).

connects.

[140] The base insulation profile (245) is firmly connected to the box profile (217) by means of a screw (259) which extends through the side surface (220) of the box profile (217) and the transverse wall (254) of the base insulation profile (245). A seal (260) provided in the upper part of the transverse wall (254) ensures that the transverse wall (254) is firmly attached to the side surface (220). The screw (259) expediently extends transversely through the screw channel (258) provided in the course of the transverse wall (254). It also penetrates the adjacent transverse wall (253), so that the transverse wall (254) is firmly attached to the side surface (220) without there being any risk of the screw tearing out when screwing into the base insulation profile (245) made of plastic.

[141] In the area of the transverse wall (251) facing away from the box profile (217), the base insulation profile (245) is provided with a receptacle for a window sill (261) which extends in the immediate vicinity of the floor (218) with a drainage leg (262) below an end (263) with which a post (46) extends towards the floor (218). In this way, water that flows off the outer surface of the plate (19) and the post (46) can be collected by the window sill (261) and drained away from the immediate area of the floor finish (215). Particularly in large-scale buildings, considerable amounts of water arise which flow into the drainage leg (262) of the window sill (261) and are drained away. This keeps the immediate surface of the base insulation profile (242) dry.

[142] In the transverse wall (251), a groove (265) is provided as a receptacle for fastening a fastening leg (264) connected to the drain leg (262) and running at an obtuse angle to the drain leg (262). This groove (265) has a U-shaped cross-section, the yoke of which forms part of the transverse wall (251). The legs (266, 267) extend in a direction away from the box profile (217). Between the two legs (266, 267) an opening (268) is provided through which a fastening screw holding the fastening leg (264) penetrates into the groove (265) and penetrates the transverse wall (251). In addition to the two legs (266, 267), the fastening leg (264) also rests on the cross wall (251) above the screw channel (255). In this upper area, the cross wall (251) runs in line with the ends of the legs (266, 267), so that the fastening leg (264) is safely guided on three support points.

[143] Above the screw channel (255), the transverse wall (251) forms a corner connection groove (270) on its side facing into the interior of the base insulation profile (245) together with an adjacent inner side of the screw channel (255) and an inner surface of the water drain (246). A corner connector (not shown) can be guided into this corner connection groove (270), with the aid of which two adjacent base insulation profiles (245) can be connected to one another.

[144] The floor connection (215) is installed on a floor (218) that has a surface that is as flat as possible, on which the bottom surface (222) of the box profile (217) and the underside (250) of the base insulation profile (245) can be supported as flat as possible. Then, at a predetermined distance from the end (243) of the plate (19), the box profile (217) is fixed in the floor (218) using the anchor (219). Then the base bar (240) is aligned with the box profile (217) and the plate (19). The ends (230) of the

• t ··

Fastening projection (225) and the base bolt (240) are positioned opposite one another in such a way that the cover closure (234) can be fastened to the respective locking devices (231, 239) in a plane that is as vertical as possible.

[145] The base bolt (240) is then aligned with the plate (19) using the insulator (24) so that after the screw extending into the recess (29) has been properly tightened, the glass seal (14) rests firmly on the plate (19). The insulator (24) is then sealed with respect to the plate (19) using the seal (25).

[146] The base insulation profile (245) is then attached to the side surface (220) of the box profile (217) using the screw (259). Care must be taken to ensure that the underside (250) extends in the plane of the floor surface (222) bordering the box profile (217).

[147] Finally, the fastening leg (264) is fastened with the aid of the fastening screw (269) in such a way that it rests on the legs (266, 267) of the groove (265) and on the upper part of the transverse wall (251). The fastening leg (264) has a knurling on its side facing the transverse wall (251), which cuts into the legs (266, 267) when the fastening screw (269) is tightened.
