Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0474621A1] A floating element (1) consists of an essentially prismatic basic body (2) which has, in the corner edge regions, corner connection parts (3) with eyes (4) and catches (5) for receiving and engaging connection bolts (8, 11) for assembly of a number of identical floating elements (1). <??>In order to increase the strength and stability of the connection in the case of multilayer superposition of the floating elements (1), the basic body (2) forms a central mounting opening (6), which is continuous according to the height, with support surfaces (7) for receiving and supporting a connection bolt (11) in the case of layerwise superposition of identical floating elements (1), the layers (10, 10a, 10b) of the floating elements (1) in each case being arranged mutually offset in the direction of the diagonal between mounting openings (6) and eyes (4) until eyes and mounting openings lie above one another, and the eyes and mounting openings (4, 6) which lie above one another in each case having a locking bolt (11) which extends between at least two layers (10b, 10a; 10a, 10) and can be supported both on the catches (5) of the eyes (4) and on the support surfaces (7) of the mounting openings (6). <IMAGE>
