On the first and/or second anchoring component at least one bearing support (7,9) is arranged. Bolts (10) are provided to connect the first connecting component with the second connecting component. The bolts are threaded.

Description

The invention relates to a wood post-tie connection to the frontal connection of at least one bolt contained in the timber post-tie connection to a post contained in the wood post-tie connection.

Post-and-beam connections are known from the prior art in various embodiments. In the simplest construction angle iron are used, which are bolted to the post and the bolt. Modified connecting devices have additional pocket-like receiving areas, in which the bolt or Rähm can be inserted to prevent lateral displacement. Furthermore, constructions are previously known, in which frontally into the end regions of posts cross-shaped or plate-shaped elements are introduced, in which by means of hook-shaped components which are received in the bolt ends, bolts can be suspended.

The constructions described are all characterized by the disadvantage that they require on the one hand a very exact manual assembly and adaptation in order to achieve a solid, durable, angle-faithful construction. Furthermore, some of the previously known elements are only suitable to be mounted on the upper, frontal end of a post.

Solutions have been proposed in which it is possible to easily assemble the two connecting elements, from which a connecting device can be constructed, in a simple manner to each other. As a disadvantage, however, it may prove that it is necessary to introduce corresponding recesses both in the post and in the bolt and subsequently the fasteners to fix. Especially for users who do not have special crafting skills, this can lead to problems.

The US 4 299 509 A shows a skeleton construction with plate-like components, which are inserted into the posts or the bolt and are in the assembled state in a common plane. The plate-like components have at their upper ends in each case hooks or noses, so that they can be hooked into one another. This timber post-tie connection includes all the features of the preamble of claim 1.

From the DE 200 22 076 U1 is a connection system for structural elements in timber construction known. For connecting a first and a second structural element connecting plates are provided in each case, wherein a connecting plate projects beyond the free end of a structural element and engages in a U-shaped, formed by two mutually parallel leg plates receiving portion of the other structural element. The fuse is made by means of connecting elements.

Another detachable connection for wooden beams shows the EP 0 130 145 A1 , In the construction described two wooden beams are frontally coupled together. In each of the beams, a mounting plate is disposed in an end slot of the beam. One of the mounting plates protrudes beyond the beam end, while the other beam is provided with a slot parallel to its mounting plate, which receives the projecting end of the other mounting plate. The connection is made via connecting bolts.

The invention has for its object to provide a connection device of the type mentioned above, which allows a simple design and simple, cost-effective manufacturability a high degree of pre-assembly and can be easily and safely used by non-skilled craftsman.

According to the invention, the object is achieved by the features of the house claim, the respective subclaims show further advantageous embodiments of the invention.

According to the invention it is thus provided that the wood post-bolt connection to the frontal connection at least one bolt obtained in the wood post-tie connection to a post obtained in the wood post-tie connection comprises a first plate-like connecting element, which is inserted in a slot of the post, and a second plate-like connecting element, which is inserted into a frontal slot of the bolt. The two connecting elements each have an anchoring element. These two anchoring elements are connected to each other and arranged in parallel to each other.

The invention thus consists in separating a conventional plate-like connecting element in two areas, which are each pre-assembled both on the post and on the bolt. The user can thus, like a plug-in module plug together the post and the bolt and connect the two anchoring elements together. The mechanical anchoring of the two connecting elements in the post and in the bolt can for example be done in advance factory. This ensures that both the introduction the slot or the recess takes place in the correct manner, as well as the respective anchoring of the connecting element to the post or on the bolt itself.

The connection of the two anchoring elements with each other can be done in a simple manner. Such technical measures can easily be carried out by less trained personnel. In particular, with regard to the weight and the size of the posts and bars in question, this results in a very significant workload. In addition, occupational safety increases, since it is basically possible to do without lengthy assembly work. The bars or posts need only be aligned with each other and connected by means of anchoring elements.

Particularly favorable developments of the invention are described in the subclaims.

In the following embodiments, the same parts are designated by the same reference numerals.

According to the invention, a construction is provided in which a horizontal latch 1 can be anchored to a vertical post 2. It is understood that the construction is chosen so that the post and / or the bolt in other ways can be aligned. In particular, multiple connections, cross connections or the like are possible. So in place of in Fig. 6b and 7b shown assembly of a bolt 1 to a post 2 a plurality of bars 1 are attached to a post 2.

According to the invention a first connecting element 3 is provided, which is insertable into a slot of a post 2, and a second connecting element 4, which can be mounted in a frontal recess of a bolt 1, as the Fig. 5a and 5b demonstrate.

The first connecting element 3, which, like the second connecting element 4, is plate-shaped and has a plurality of recesses 11 for attachment, is provided with a first anchoring element 5, which is designed in the form of a bearing plate. In an analogous manner, the second connecting element 4, a second anchoring element 6, which is also designed as a bearing plate. The two anchoring elements 5 and 6 are each firmly (integrally) with the connecting elements 3, 4 is connected.

On the anchoring element 5 and 6 bearing blocks 7, 8 and / or 9 are integrally formed to allow the assembly with the respective anchoring element 5 and 6 respectively.

At the in Fig. 1a As shown, the second anchoring element 6 has an upper bearing block 7, which is provided with two recesses for the passage of bolts 10. The front-side upper side of the first anchoring element 5 of the first connecting element 3 is correspondingly provided with two recesses into which the bolts 10 can be inserted. For further attachment serves a lower bracket 9 of the first anchoring element 5, which is provided for ease of assembly with a slot through which a bolt 10 is feasible, which, as shown, in a recess of the second connecting element 4 can be screwed. This construction corresponds to the illustration of Fig. 6a and 6b and is particularly suitable for the cases in which the bolt 1 is also accessible from its underside.

If the bolt, as in the Fig. 7a and 7b shown, possibly poorly accessible from below, can be found in Fig. 1b shown construction used. It is possible to pre-assemble two bolts 10 on a lower bearing block 8 of the second connecting element 4. The corresponding lower recesses or bores of the first anchoring element 5 are in Fig. 1b not visible. For assembly, the preassembled projecting bolts 10 can then be inserted into the lower end-side recesses of the first anchoring element 5. Subsequently, the latch is positioned remainder and by means of the upper pin 10, which are introduced by the upper bearing block 7, mounted.
