Mobile partition
The invention relates to a mobile partitioning wall with several wall elements suspended at running rails. In order to provide a mobile partitioning wall, which is designed to be simple to manufacture and to mount and to be universally applicable, and offers simple and variable possibilities to be optionally completed with add-on parts, the wall elements are formed without supporting frame, and mounting elements are horizontally and/or vertically disposed at the edge sides of the wall elements.
1. A mobile partitioning wall comprising:
a plurality of wall elements displaceably suspended at one or more running rails, each of said plurality of wall elements having a layered structure and comprising a core sandwiched between two exterior shells disposed on opposing sides of the core and fully bonded to the core, the layered structure having upper and lower horizontal side edges and lateral vertical side edges and being formed without a supporting frame;
at least one horizontal mounting element disposed at least one of the upper and lower horizontal side edges and vertical mounting elements disposed at the vertical side edges of each of said wall elements and each having a mounting area;
at least one horizontal sealing mechanism supported in and operable to move in and out of said mounting area in said at least one of the upper and lower horizontal side edges;
vertical sealing profiles supported at the respective vertical mounting elements; and
corner sealing parts clipped to the respective vertical mounting elements and directly received in said mounting area in the at least one horizontal mounting element, thereby forming a sealed transition from the respective vertical mounting elements to the at least one horizontal mounting element.
2. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the horizontal and vertical side edges is formed with recesses which receive the mounting elements.
3. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 2 wherein the horizontal side edges are formed with recesses which receive the mounting elements.
4. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 3 wherein the mounting elements are bonded in the recesses.
5. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 3 wherein the mounting elements are U-shaped.
6. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 5 further comprising a structural element in a housing received in the U-shaped mounting element, wherein the housing is positively engaged by the mounting element.
7. The mobile partitioning wall claim 1 , wherein the mounting elements are surface mounted on at least one of the horizontal and vertical mounting edges.
8. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 7 , wherein the mounting elements are H-shaped.
9. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 1 wherein the mounting elements are disposed at each of the horizontal and vertical side edges.
10. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 9 wherein the mounting elements on the vertical side elements are plastic.
11. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 9 wherein the mounting elements on the vertical side edges receive complementary sealing profiles, whereby the sealing profile on one said wall element is received in the complementary sealing profile of an adjacent said wall element.
12. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 11 wherein the sealing profiles engage in channels formed in the mounting elements on the vertical side edges.
13. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 11 further comprising corner connectors connecting the sealing profiles to the mounting elements on the horizontal edge sides.
14. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 11 wherein the corner sealing parts are molded sealing parts clipped to the mounting elements on the vertical side edges adjacent to the vertical sealing profiles, and inserted in the mounting elements on the horizontal side edges.
15. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 11 further comprising service modules fixed to respective ones of said mounting elements on said vertical side edges, each said service module having electrical contacts which can contact the electrical contacts of the service module on an adjacent wall element.
16. The mobile partitioning wall of claim 9 wherein the mounting elements on the vertical side edges are plastic, and the sealing mechanism comprises metal sealing elements, the sealing elements being snapped into the mounting elements.
