Abstract (en)

A fixing bracket for mounting flat elements (16,17), more specifically profiled planks or long panels, in coplanarity in continuation of each other to form a building facade, comprises a central portion connecting a front portion and a rear portion. The front portion comprises an upper front finger (7) extending upwards such as to be adapted for insertion into a groove (24) of an upper of said flat elements (16) and a lower front finger extending downwards (9) such as to be adapted for supporting a front surface of a lower of said flat elements (17). The rear portion comprises a resilient tongue (11,12) extending downwards and being adapted to exert a frontwards directed force on a rear surface of said lower flat element. The lower front finger extends farther downwards than the upper front finger extends upwards from the central portion. Hereby, a flat element secured between two such brackets can be released by shifting the flat element upwards while optionally simultaneously pushing the flat element backwards.
