    (54) Articulated joint forming a variable angle for mobile walls


    (57) An articulated joint (1) forms a variable angle (α) between mobile walls (2,2′...) by comprising a steel tube core (10) with inner tubes (11) for adjus­ting the distance from floor and ceiling, and two metal end members (20) forming head and bottom of tube (10) respectively. The outer free surface (24) and the periphery (23) of each member (20) are provi­ded with grooves (25,26) and associate first and se­cond engagement means (35,36) in an axial and trans­verse direction to the tube (10) are respectively provided. Each engagement means (35,36) is adapted to be fixed to the other and to a metal channel section (41) which in turn can be secured to an end upright (12) of each wall (2,2′...) in proximity of the joint.
