Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8403326A1] In a heat insulating connection device for two parallel metal sections by means of an insulating section, the foremost segments (22) of the edges (9) are wound about cross-bars (4) of the insulating section (1) in such a way that the anchoring beads (14 and 16) provided on the edge (9) bear against the cross-bar (4) and push it against the corresponding metal section.
