[0041] In the Figures 1 - 4Figure 10 is an embodiment of a wall 10 for a container 12 or a building 14, both to be used as storage solutions in the house and garden. The wall 10 is formed from a component arrangement 18, which has at least one wall element 20 and at least one further element, in particular a corner element 22. The wall element 20 and the at least one further element, in particular the at least one corner element 22, are connected to each other by means of a connecting device 24.

[0042] The elements 20, 22 of the component arrangement 18 are formed from metal sheets 26, with one metal sheet 26 forming the wall element 20 in Fig. 5 is shown and a metal sheet 26 for forming the corner element 22 in Fig. 6 is shown.

[0043] Figure 1shows a top view directly from above of the wall 10, which is to be arranged vertically in its intended use, where, for example, a wall element 20 is connected to a corner element 22 at a first vertically arranged side edge 28 and to another corner element 22 at a second vertically arranged side edge 30. Fig. 2 shows the left area of Fig. 1 with the connecting device 24 on the first side edge 28 in enlarged view, while Fig. 3 the right area of Fig. 1 with the connecting device 24 on the second side edge 30 shown in enlarged view. Fig. 4 Detail IV shows Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 in enlarged sectional view.

[0044] As from the Figures 1 - 4As can be seen, the connecting device 24 has a first edge formation 32 on one of the elements 20, 22 of the component arrangement 18 to be connected, and a second edge formation 34 on the other element 20, 22 of the component arrangement 18 to be connected. The edge formations 32, 34 are formed by bends in the side edges 28, 30 of the metal sheets 26 of the elements 20, 22 of the component arrangement 18 and are complementary to each other in such a way that they interlock when the elements 20, 22 are connected.

[0045] In the illustrated embodiment, the connecting device 24 has further openings 36 for fasteners such as, in particular, screws 38. The openings 36 can be designed as round drill holes 36a and / or as elongated holes 36b (see here in particular Fig. 4 and Fig. 6 ).

[0046] The wall element 20 is formed from a corrugated sheet 40, which forms a visible side 42 of the wall area 44 of the container 12 or building 14 to be formed by the wall element 20. The corrugated sheet 40 has at least one outer surface area 46 and at least one corrugated area 48.

[0047] In the Figures 1 - 4 In the illustrated embodiment of the wall element 20, a series of grooves 50 are provided, which form several groove areas 48.

[0048] Each corrugation area 48 and each corrugation 50 extends along the vertical direction in intended use across the corrugated sheet 40.

[0049] Each corrugation 50 has at least one first corrugation wall 52 and one second corrugation wall 54. Each corrugation 50 is also provided with a corrugation base 56 arranged between the corrugation walls 52 and 54.

[0050] The several outer surface areas 46, each separated by a groove 50, each have an outer surface 58, all of which lie on a plane, which is referred to below as the visible surface plane 60.

[0051] The first corrugation wall 52 and the second corrugation wall 54 extend in a depth direction away from the visible surface plane 60, preferably the corrugation walls 52, 54 being inclined at an oblique angle rather than at 90°. The first corrugation wall 52 and the second corrugation wall 54 are mirror images of each other with respect to a median plane through the corrugation 50 and are accordingly inclined in opposite directions. The corrugation base 56 is thus set back in the depth direction relative to the visible surface plane 60. For example, the surface of the corrugation base 56 is set back from the visible surface plane 60 by a distance of 2 mm to 21 mm, preferably 8 mm to 12 mm, and most preferably 10 mm.

[0052] How to especially Fig. 4 As can be seen, the first edge formation has a first corrugated wall area 62 extending from the visible side plane 60 in the depth direction and a first U-shaped profile area 64.

[0053] The first corrugated wall section 62 is designed in the same way as the first corrugated wall 52. In particular, it extends with the same inclination as the first corrugated wall 52 and is comparably dimensioned.

[0054] The first U-shaped profile section has a first leg 64a, a web 64b and a second leg 64c. The first U-shaped profile section 64 opens towards the center of the wall element 20.

[0055] The first leg 64a extends essentially parallel to the visible surface plane 60 and, like the corrugation base 56, is set back from it, extending from the first corrugation wall area 62 in an outward direction, i.e., away from the center of the wall element 20. In the illustrated embodiments, the first leg 64a is designed to be long enough that, when the elements 20, 22 are connected by means of the connecting device 24, a portion of it is visible to the outside, the length of which corresponds to the length of the corrugation base 56.

[0056] The web 64b extends from the end of the first leg 64a in the depth direction. In the illustrated embodiment, the web 64b extends essentially perpendicular to the visible surface plane 60.

[0057] The second leg 64c extends from the bridge 64b essentially parallel to the visible side plane 60 back towards the center of the corresponding element 20, 22, on which the first edge formation 32 is formed.

[0058] The first edge formation 32 is formed on the first side edge 28, which extends essentially parallel to the grooves 50.

[0059] The part of the first edge formation 32 visible in the intended use when the elements 20, 22 are connected, i.e. in particular the first corrugated wall area 62 and the visible area of ​​the first leg 64a form a corrugated area 48 which is identical in appearance to the corresponding area of ​​the respective corrugation 50 of the wall element 20.

[0060] The second edge formation 34 has a second corrugated wall area 66 extending from the visible side plane 60 in a depth direction and a second U-shaped profile area 68.

[0061] The second corrugated wall area 66 extends in the same way as the second corrugated wall 54 of a corrugation 50 to a line set back from the visible side plane 60, which is essentially at the level of the surface of the corrugation base 56.

[0062] The second U-shaped profile section 68 is designed to complement the first U-shaped profile section 64, such that the first U-shaped profile section 64 can be clamped into it. The second U-shaped profile section 68 opens towards the center of the element 20, 22, where the second edge formation 34 is located. Thus, if the second edge formation 34 is formed on the wall element 20, the second U-shaped profile section 68 opens towards a central area of ​​the wall element 20.

[0063] The second U-shaped profile area 68 has a first leg 68a, a web 68b and a second leg 68c.

[0064] The first leg 68a of the second U-shaped profile section 68 is set back from the visible surface plane 60 in the depth direction such that its surface facing away from the visible surface plane 60 lies approximately at the level of the surface of the corrugation base 56. The first leg 68a of the second U-shaped profile section 68 is bent back by approximately 180° relative to a corresponding outer surface area 46; in other words, the first leg 68a of the second U-shaped profile section 68 extends from the second corrugation wall area 66 towards the center of the element 20, 22 on which the second edge formation 34 is formed.

[0065] The web 68b of the second U-shaped profile section 68 extends from the end of the first leg 68a of the second U-shaped profile section 68 in a depth direction. Preferably, the web 68b of the second U-shaped profile section 68 extends substantially perpendicular to the visible surface plane 60.

[0066] The second leg 68c of the second U-shaped profile section 68 extends outwards from the end of the web 68b of the second U-shaped profile section 68 essentially parallel to the visible surface plane 60, i.e., away from the center of the element 20, 22 in which the second edge formation 34 is formed. The distance between the first leg 68a and the second leg 68c of the second U-shaped profile section 68 is dimensioned such that the first U-shaped profile section 64, with its first leg 64a, web 64b, and second leg 64c, can be received therein without play and, due to the elasticity of the metal sheet and the corresponding resilient design of the U-shaped profile sections 64, 68, can be clamped into it. Thus, a clamping force is exerted between the interlocking U-shaped profile sections 64, 68.

[0067] The second edge formation 34 is formed on the second side edge 30, which runs parallel to the corresponding corrugations 50. The second corrugation wall area 66 is formed in the same way as the second corrugation wall 54, so that the second edge formation 34 also corresponds to an area of ​​a corrugation 50 and thus forms a corrugation area 48.

[0068] Once the connecting device 24 is assembled, the first corrugated wall section 62, the visible part of the first leg 64a of the first U-shaped profile section 64, and the second corrugated wall section 66 resemble a corrugation 50. The dividing line between the elements 20 and 22 is located at the base, concealed beneath the second corrugated wall section 66, so that no dividing joint is visible from the outside. Due to the interlocking design of the U-shaped profile sections 64 and 68, the elements 20 and 22 are already clamped together after assembly, allowing for easy pre-assembly before the screws 38 or other fasteners can be inserted for final assembly.

[0069] The edge formations 32, 34 each have only four bends 70a - 70d, all of which are formed by means of a press brake and in particular automatically by means of a press brake machine at the in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 The metal sheets shown (26) are easily manufactured.

[0070] A kit 72 for forming the container 12 or the building 14 has component arrangements 18 such that at least four corners 96 can be formed by corner elements 22 and all walls 10 to be provided can be formed by wall elements 20, possibly also to be fitted with doors 100.

[0071] The following describes possible elements of such a kit 72 based on the illustrations in the Figures 7 - 19 This is explained in more detail. In it, the Figures 7 - 16 different embodiments of wall elements 20, of which several may be provided in the kit 72, while the Figures 17-19 different possible designs of corner elements 20 are shown.

[0072] The Figures 7 and 8Figure 1 shows a first and a second embodiment of the wall element 20, designed as a standard wall element 64, in which both side edges 28, 30, which are to be arranged vertically in intended use, are provided with the edge formations 32, 34. The first side edge 28 is provided with the first edge formation 32 and the second side edge 30 is provided with the second edge formation 34.

[0073] The in the Figures 7 and 8 The illustrated embodiments of the standard wall elements 74 have a uniform length L, here e.g. 480 mm - of course this is only an example.

[0074] The exemplary embodiment of Fig. 7 is designed as a multi-ribbed wall element 76, in which a series of ribs 50 are provided at predetermined intervals.

[0075] The exemplary embodiment of Fig. 8 is designed as a center-rib wall element 78 with only one central rib 50.

[0076] The respective corrugations 50 of the wall elements 20 shown are designed such that the inward-facing surface of the corrugation base 56 is set back from the visible surface plane 60 by a first distance, here for example 10 mm in the depth direction. The first leg 64a, 68a of the U-shaped profile areas 64, 68 of the edge formations 32, 34 is set back from the visible surface plane 60 by a second distance in the depth direction, which may be slightly smaller than the first distance. Here, the second distance is, for example, 9.5 mm. The length of the first leg 68a of the second U-shaped profile area 68, which defines the insertion depth of the edge formations 32, 34 into each other, is, for example, in the range of 5 mm to 25 mm and is approximately 10.5 mm here.

[0077] The Figures 9 and 10Figure 2 shows a second and a third embodiment of the wall element 20, both of which are designed as (here longer) first door side wall element 80. In the first door side wall element 80, the first edge formation 32 is formed on the first side edge 28. However, the second edge 30 does not have the second edge formation 34, but rather a second door frame edge formation 82. Like the second edge formation 34, the second door frame edge formation 82 has the second corrugated wall area 66 and, in the illustrated embodiments, also a profile area simulating an area of ​​the corrugation base 56. Furthermore, the second door frame edge formation 82 has an L-shaped profile area 84, from which one leg extends in the depth direction and another leg, forming the end edge, extends away from the center of the wall element 20. The L-shaped profile area 84 serves as the door frame of a door, as will be explained in more detail below.

[0078] The first door side wall element 82 from Fig. 9 is designed as a multi-ribbed wall element 76, while the first door side wall element 82 is of Fig. 10 is designed as a center-rib wall element 78. The wall elements 20 of the Figures 9 and 10 can be used, for example, as left-hand door side wall elements, to the left of a door 100 (see Fig. 20 and 22 ), be used.

[0079] The Figures 11 and 12Figure 1 shows embodiments of the wall element 20, which are designed as second door side wall elements 86, which can be used, for example, as right-hand door side wall elements. The second door side wall elements 86 have a first door frame edge formation 88 on the first side edge 28 and a second edge formation 34 on the second side edge 30. The first door frame edge formation 88 has the first corrugated wall area 62, optionally also a profile area that simulates part of the corrugation base 56, and the L-shaped profile area 84, which is designed and arranged here as a mirror image of the L-shaped profile area 84 of the second door frame edge formation 82, as previously described. Overall, the first door frame edge formation 88 can be designed as a mirror image of the second door frame edge formation 82. Fig. 11 This again shows the design of the second door side wall element 86 as a multi-ribbed wall element 76, while Fig. 12 The design as a center rib wall element 78 is shown.

[0080] The leg forming the end edge of the L-shaped profile area 84 can be folded back in all door frame edge configurations 82, 88, whereby a profile sheet 114 can be inserted therein to reinforce the door frame area (shown in the Fig. 24 and 25).

[0081] The Figures 13 and 14 corresponding shorter versions of the first door side panel element 80 are shown, which, for example, are only half as long as those in the Figures 9 and 10 The illustrated versions of the first door side wall element 80 are designed. Fig. 13 This again shows the design as a multi-ribbed wall element 76. Fig. 14 This shows that in a wall element 20 of the kit 72, only a single outer surface area 46 may be present, with corrugated areas 48 formed only on the side edges 28, 30, which simulate a corrugation 50 when used as intended. Figures 15 and 16 wall elements 20 are shown accordingly, which are designed as shorter second door side wall elements 86, wherein in turn Fig. 15 the variant as a multi-ribbed wall element 76 and Fig. 16 the variant with grooved areas formed only on the sides 48 and a smooth surface area in the middle 46.

[0082] Fig. 17 Figure 1 shows a first embodiment of the corner element 22, designed as a standard corner element 90. Fig. 18 shows an embodiment of the corner element 22, designed as the first door side corner element 92. Fig. 19 shows an embodiment of the corner element, designed as a second door side corner element 94.

[0083] All embodiments of the corner element 22, 90, 92, 94 are made of a material as shown in Fig. 6 The depicted metal sheet 26 is formed by bending. A corner 96 is formed by an L-shaped angled area 98 with a first leg 98a and a second leg 98b.

[0084] At the free end of the first leg 98a, the standard corner element 90, which is in Fig. 17 The first edge formation 32 is shown, formed in the first door side corner element 92, which is in Fig. 18 The first door frame edge formation 88 and the second door side corner element 94, which are shown in Fig. 19 The first edge formation 32 is shown.

[0085] On the second leg 98b of the L-shaped angled region 98, the following is present: Fig. 17 The second edge formation 34 is formed in the standard corner element 90 shown, in the first door side corner element 92, which is in Fig. 18 The second edge formation 34 is also shown, and the second door side corner element 94, which is in Fig. 19The second door frame edge formation 82 is shown. The edge formations 32, 34 and the door frame edge formations 82, 88 are formed identically for all wall elements 20 and corner elements 22 of the same kit 72, and reference can be made to the description above for further details.

[0086] For example, if a container 12 is to be formed for storage solutions, such as a terrace box, a raised bed or the like, the kit 72 contains four standard corner elements 90 and at least four standard wall elements 74.

[0087] It is from the Figure 1 , 7 and 8 It is readily apparent that not only can wall elements 20 be connected to corner elements 22 using the connecting device 24, but that two adjacent wall elements 20 can also be connected to each other. A concrete example of this is shown in Fig. 22shown where, to the left and right of the door 100, a wall area is formed from a standard wall element 74 and a door side wall element 80, 86 connected to it by means of the connecting device 24.

[0088] A kit 72 for a rectangular container 12 can thus, for example, comprise six standard wall elements 74. Additionally, the kit 72 for a container 12 includes components (not shown in detail here) for forming a base and a lid with frame elements, which can be designed such that the upper and lower ends of the corner elements 22 can be attached to them by insertion or the like, as is generally known for such containers 12.

[0089] For example, kit 72 for a shelf for wood or the like also contains two of the parts in Fig. 1illustrated component arrangements 18, which form the side walls of the shelf, and further frame elements or a top and bottom part to form the further elements of the shelf.

[0090] If, on the other hand, a building 14 is to be constructed, then the kit 72, for example, comprises four corner elements 22 and at least two standard wall elements 74. By adding a suitable roof structure, which can be designed in any way known to a person skilled in the art such that the upper ends of the corner elements 22 can be connected to it, a bicycle garage with two side walls, open on both sides, can be constructed, for example. If a third side is to be closed, the kit 72 contains a corresponding number of additional standard wall elements 74 to form a rear wall.

[0091] Furthermore, the building kit for building 14 can also be equipped with a door 100. Examples of this are described below using the following examples. Figs. 20 - 24 explained in more detail.

[0092] Fig. 20 Figure 1 shows an example of a wall 10 of a building 14, such as a tool shed, garden house, equipment shed, or the like, wherein the wall 10, in addition to two standard corner elements 90, includes a first door side wall element 80 according to Fig. 9 and a second door side wall element 86 according to Fig. 11 to form a door frame in which a fixed leaf 102 and a moving leaf 104 of the double-leaf door 100 are held.

[0093] The design of the hinge sides of fixed leaf 102 and active leaf 104 is shown in the sectional view in Fig. 24 indicated, while the formation of the lock area of ​​the fixed wing 102 and the passage wing 104 in the sectional view of Fig. 21 is shown.

[0094] Fig. 22Figure 1 shows a corresponding configuration of wall 10 with door 100 in a single-leaf configuration, whereby only a single door leaf 108 is arranged in the door frame. The door side wall elements 80, 86 can be used here as a shorter version, as in Figure 1. Fig. 13 and Fig. 15 The depicted configuration includes a standard wall element 74 that can be arranged between these elements and the corner elements 22. The lock area of ​​the door 100 in the single-leaf version is shown in Fig. 23 depicted, while the band area in turn Fig. 24 can be removed.

[0095] As shown in the cross-sectional views of the Figs. 21, 23 and 24Removable, the door leaves 108, which form the single leaf of the door 100 in a single-leaf configuration or the fixed leaves 102 and active leaves 104 in a double-leaf configuration, can also be made of sheet metal, with a corrugated sheet 40 forming the outer visible side of the door leaf 108 and another corrugated sheet forming an inner side of the door leaf. The lock 112 or a mechanism (not shown) for holding the fixed leaf 102 in place can be arranged in a wider frame area 110 of the door leaf 108. The door frame edge details 88, 82 are each reinforced by a profiled sheet 114 to better absorb the loads of the door leaves 108.

[0096] Due to the modular design of the building element arrangements 18, a variety of further kits 72 can be assembled to form very different walls 10 for a range of storage solutions, including garden sheds, barbecue garages, raised beds, terrace boxes for storing chair cushions, etc.

[0097] The metal sheets 26 of the elements 20, 22 of the component arrangement 18 or of the kit 72 can be formed, for example, by galvanized steel sheets or other metal sheets made of any suitably appropriate material.

[0098] Preferably, the elements 20, 22 are powder-coated, so that the color of the container 12 or building 14 or individual parts thereof can be freely selected.

[0099] A connecting device (24) and a connecting method for connecting a wall element (20) formed from sheet metal (26) with another element (20, 22) formed from sheet metal have thus been described, wherein a first edge formation (32) on one element (20, 22) and a second edge formation (32) on the other element (22, 20) are complementary to each other in such a way that they can be connected to each other by interlocking, wherein the edge formation (32, 34) each have a corrugated wall region (62) and a U-shaped profile region (64, 68) extending further in the depth direction on the side opposite the visible side, wherein the profile regions (64, 68) are complementary to each other in such a way that a first U-shaped profile region (64) is clamped in a second U-shaped profile region (68) when the first and second edge formations (32, 34) interlock. is recordable.
