Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0754816A1] The grid rack comprises several parallel bars each designed as a one-piece push-in connecting element (1). Each element is formed as connecting members with pairs of profiled shapes (5,6) each side of a central longitudinal plane (3) and in the installation position defining only a single transverse axis (4). The pairs of profiles connect in the cross-direction. They are formed on the connecting element on one side as a push-in attachment (5) and on the other side as a complementary socket space.
