Device for locking panels or slabs with an improved structure
A device ( 10 ) for clamping panels and sheets comprises an extruded U-shaped profile. The profile comprises a base box ( 12 ) and first and second brackets ( 11 ) extending transversely from the base box. A plurality of polygonal slots ( 20 ) are formed within the brackets ( 11 ) and the base box ( 12 ). At least one of the slots ( 20 ) is filled with an additional material, such as an expansive cement mortar.
1 . A device for clamping panels and sheets, comprising an extruded profile, having a U-shaped profile, inferiorly attachable to a reference surface and capable of housing within said U-shaped profile at least one of said panels or sheets, wherein said profile is made of aluminum and comprises:
a first and a second bracket, each comprising a respective inner wall and a respective outer wall adapted to act as upright members; and a plurality of further horizontal inner walls located between said inner wall and said outer wall adapted to act as cross members;
a base box to which said first and second brackets are transversely fixed in a direction exiting from said base box;
a plurality of polygonal shaped slots which are formed within said first and second brackets and said base box;
wherein at least one slot of said plurality of slots in said first and second brackets is filled with an expansive premixed cement mortar for anchoring, so as to create a device of the hybrid type.
2 . The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said slots are quadrangular shaped.
3 . Clamping device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said slots are triangular shaped.
4 . The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the entire plurality of said slots is filled with said expansive premixed cement mortar for anchoring.
5 . The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said expansive premixed cement mortar for anchoring is filled into said plurality of slots by means of a casting technique for centimetric thicknesses.
6 . The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the inner walls penetrate perpendicularly into the base box.
7 . The device as claimed in claim 6 , wherein said base box has a thickness of 3.5 mm.
8 . The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of said inner wall, said outer wall and said further inner walls are substantially flat.
9 . The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of said inner wall, said outer wall and said further inner walls comprises knurls and/or protrusions.
