Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9702389A1] A connector (1) for profile sections having axes that intersect at a certain angle ( alpha , beta ). The connector consists of a connecting member folded or cut so that it defines a bearing surface provided with a through-bore (5) and arranged to be attached to any one of the surfaces of a first profile section, said connecting member being pivotable about a first axis (D1) parallel or orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of said through-bore, and at least one portion of said member further being pivotable about a second axis (D2) orthogonal to said first axis (D1). The part of the connector located beyond a plane parallel to said first axis (D1) and passing through the second pivot axis (D2) forms an initial attachment portion to which a second profile section is attached either directly or by means of an insert. Said connector is useful for structural frameworks.
