Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1355036A1] Structure (16) has inner hollow space, central pin (36) and journal (40) with integral side coupling (44) formed inside structure. Push-in element (34) is coupled at side to connector (16) and two connecting elements of ladder (12,14) are connected by connector (16) by plug-in coupling elements (18,20). Each coupling element has projection (24) which fits with recess (26) in side wall of elements (12,14). Pressure on catch (28) releases elements (12,14). Connector (16) is made of two half shells with hollow space between, into which third limb (34) is inserted. To assemble, bearing journals (40) are removed, limb (34) is inserted so its mouth (38) surrounds central pin (36), angle position is adjusted and journals (40) inserted. Bridge limb (50) has further coupling element (53), having joint (52) with two swivel stops (54) for rotation of 40 degrees.
