[0055] In a step S2 - as in FIGS. 7 and 8shown - a first profile blank 140 is provided which has a first and a second end 140', 140" and a first and a second side 142, 144 - or inner side 142 and outer side 144 - and extends along the first profile axis P1. The ends 140', 140" correspond to the first and the second end 14', 14" of the first roof finishing profile 14, respectively. The sides 142, 144 run parallel to the first profile axis P1 from the first to the second end 140', 140". The profile blank 140 has a support web on the side 142, which, when the profile blank 140 or the roof finishing profile 14 produced from it is properly attached to the roof corner 8, rests flat on the upper side of the roof corner 8. If the roof corner 8 is part of a flat roof, the support web runs essentially horizontally. The profile blank 140 has a facing web on the side 144, which, if the profile blank 140 - as in FIG. 8 shown - is properly aligned relative to the top of the roof corner 8 and to the roof edges 8', 8", for example, runs vertically. When properly aligned, the sides 142, 144 point towards the roof corner 8 or away from the roof corner 8.

[0056] In a step S3, which follows step S2, the first roof edge profile 14 is produced. This production takes place, for example, by - as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 shown - the oblique axis S is arranged with respect to the vertical axis H at the second angle β=45° to the profile axis P1. Then, a first miter cut is made on the profile blank 140 in a first plane E1, which runs parallel to the vertical axis H and the oblique axis S and cuts the end 140', which points towards the other profile blank 160, at a cutting point which lies at the first distance A1 to the side 142 and at the second distance A2 to the side 144, see FIG. 8. Consequently, the first end face 36 and the first beveled surface 44 are formed by the first miter cut, see FIG. 9 . The roof end profile 14 is thus provided.

[0057] In a step S4, a second profile blank 160 is provided, which is configured like the first profile blank 140 and has a first and a second end 160', 160" as well as a first and a second side 162, 164 - or inner side 162 and outer side 164 - and extends along the first profile axis P1. The ends 160', 160" correspond to the first and second ends 16', 16" of the second roof edge profile 16, respectively. The sides 162, 164 run parallel to the second profile axis P2 from the first to the second end 160', 160". The profile blank 160 has a support web on the side 162, which, when the profile blank 160 or the roof edge profile 16 produced from it is properly attached to the roof corner 8, rests flat on the upper side of the roof corner 8. If the roof corner 8 belongs to a flat roof, then the support web runs essentially horizontally.The profile blank 160 has a facing web on the side 164 which, when the profile blank 160 - as in . FIG. 8 shown - is properly aligned relative to the top of the roof corner 8 and to the roof edges 8', 8", for example, runs vertically. When properly aligned, the sides 162, 164 point towards the roof corner 8 or away from the roof corner 8.

[0058] In a step S5, which follows step S4, the second roof edge profile 16 is produced. This production takes place, for example, by - as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8shown - the oblique axis S is arranged with respect to the vertical axis H at the second angle β to the profile axis P2. Then, a second miter cut is made on the profile blank 160 in a second plane E2, which runs parallel to the vertical axis H and the oblique axis S and cuts the end 160", which points towards the other profile blank 140, at a cutting point which is at the first distance A1 to the side 162 and at the second distance A2 to the side 164, see FIG. 8 . Consequently, the second miter cut forms the second end face 38 and the second beveled surface 46, see FIG. 9 . Thus, the roof end profile 16 is provided.

[0059] In a step S6 following step S5, as in FIG. 9shown - the roof end profiles 14, 16 and thus the profile axes P1, P2 are arranged such that they run at right angles to the vertical axis H and parallel to the leg axes S1, S2 and with respect to the vertical axis H at the first angle α to each other.

[0060] In a step S7, which follows step S6, the first roof edge profile 14 is connected to the second roof edge profile 16 via the first plug-in leg 20, the post 18 and the second plug-in leg 22. This connection is carried out, for example, by - as in FIG. 10 and 11 shown - the plug-in leg 20 is inserted into the receiving groove 24 and the plug-in leg 22 is inserted into the receiving groove 26.

[0061] This insertion is carried out, for example, by, on the one hand, the edge areas 32, 34 of the plug-in leg 20 being placed against the associated boundary areas 28, 30 of the roof end profile 14. Then, the roof end profile 14 and the corner connector 12 are pushed together along the profile axis P1 and the leg axis S1. On the other hand, the edge areas 32, 34 of the plug-in leg 22 are placed against the associated boundary areas 28, 30 of the roof end profile 16. Then, the roof end profile 16 and the corner connector 12 are pushed together along the profile axis P2 and the leg axis S2. This pushing together of the roof end profiles 14, 16 and the corner connector 12 takes place to such an extent that - as in FIGS. 1 and 2 shown - the contact surface 40 is placed against the end face 36, the contact surface 42 against the end face 38, and the inclined surface 44 against the inclined surface 46. The production of the system 10 is thus completed.

[0062] In FIG. 12and 13 is a second embodiment of a system 10 according to the invention for covering a roof corner 8 - see FIG. 16 - schematically shown, where the roof corner 8 is, for example, an inside roof corner 8 with a roof corner angle δ of 270°. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, so the differences will be explained in more detail below. The roof corner 8 is in FIG. 16 shown, and the roof corner angle δ runs across the roof surface from the FIG. 15 right roof edge 8" counterclockwise to the left roof edge 8'.

[0063] In this embodiment of the system 10, the corner connector 12 is designed according to a second embodiment. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment of the corner connector 12, so the differences will be explained in more detail below. In this embodiment of the system 10, the roof end profiles 14, 16 are each designed according to a second embodiment. These embodiments are similar to the first embodiments of the roof end profiles 14, 16, so the differences will be explained in more detail below.

[0064] In FIG. 14 The second embodiment of the corner connector 12 is shown schematically. In this embodiment, the angle α is selected to match the roof corner angle δ of the inner roof corner 8, so that it is also 270°.

[0065] In FIG. 17 , 18 , 19 and 20The second embodiments of the roof edge profiles 14, 16 are shown schematically. In these embodiments, the angle β is 135°. It runs in FIG. 17 in a counterclockwise direction on the one hand from the oblique axis S to the profile axis P1 and on the other hand from the profile axis P2 to the oblique axis S. The end face 36 is parallel to the profile axis P1, in the direction away from the post 18 and towards the end 14" and offset by a predetermined offset amount C from the oblique surface 44, i.e. in FIG. 17 to the bottom left. The end face 38 is parallel to the profile axis P2, in the direction away from the post 18 and towards the end 16' and offset by the offset amount C from the inclined surface 46, i.e. in FIG. 17 to the bottom right. The offset C is equal to the width B1 of the contact surface 40. In the finished system 10, the inclined surfaces 44, 46 - as in FIG. 12 and 13shown - placed against each other. In addition, post 18 - as shown in FIG. 12 shown - completely fills the gap bounded by the end faces 36, 38.

[0066] In FIG. 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 and 20 A second embodiment of a method according to the invention for producing a system 10 for covering a roof corner 8 is schematically shown, with which, by way of example, the system 10 of the FIG. 12 and 13 using the corner connector 12 of the FIG. 14 can be manufactured. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, so the differences will be explained in more detail below.

[0067] In step S1, a corner connector 12 is provided which, according to the second embodiment of the FIG. 14 is trained.

[0068] In step S2, as in FIG. 16 shown - the first profile blank 140 is provided.

[0069] In a step S3a, which follows step S2 and essentially corresponds to step S3, the first roof edge profile 14 is produced. This production takes place, for example, by - as shown in FIG. 16 shown - the oblique axis S is arranged with respect to the vertical axis H at the second angle β=135° to the profile axis P1. Then, the first miter cut is made on the profile blank 140 in the first plane E1, which intersects the end 140' at a cutting point located at the first distance A1 to the side 142 and at the second distance A2 to the side 144, see FIG. 16 . In FIG. 16 In addition to the plane E1, an alternative first plane E1' is shown to the right of it as a possible variant. For the plane E1', the first distance A1 is greater than zero, whereas for the plane E1, the first distance A1 is equal to zero. Consequently, the first bevel 44 is formed by the first miter cut, see FIG. 17. A first recess is made in the inclined surface 44 in such a way that the first end face 36 is formed, see FIG. 18 . The end face 36 is parallel to the profile axis P1, towards the end 14" and offset by the offset amount C from the inclined surface 44. The end face 36 has a width B3 perpendicular to the vertical axis H - see FIG. 18 - which is equal to the width B1 of the first contact surface 40. Consequently, the first recess forms the end face 36. Thus, the roof finishing profile 14 is provided.

[0070] In step S4, the second profile blank 160 is provided.

[0071] In a step S5a, which follows step S4 and essentially corresponds to step S5, the second roof edge profile 16 is produced. This production takes place, for example, by - as shown in FIG. 16shown - the oblique axis S is arranged with respect to the vertical axis H at the second angle β to the profile axis P2. Then, a second miter cut is made on the profile blank 160 in the second plane E2, which cuts the end 160" at a cutting point located at the first distance A1 to the side 162 and at the second distance A2 to the side 164, see FIG. 16 The explanations given above in step S3a regarding the plane E1 and the alternative plane E1' apply analogously to the plane E2. Consequently, the second beveled surface 46 is formed by the second miter cut, see FIG. 17 . A second recess is made in the inclined surface 46 in such a way that the second end face 38 is formed, see FIG. 18, which shows the roof edge profile 14, the beveled surface 44, the end face 36 and the first recess, but is analogous. The end face 38 is parallel to the profile axis P2, in the direction of the end 16' and offset by the offset amount C from the beveled surface 46. The end face 38 has a width B3 perpendicular to the vertical axis H - see FIG. 18 - which is equal to the width B2 of the second contact surface 42. Consequently, the end face 38 is formed by the second recess. Thus, the roof finishing profile 16 is provided.

[0072] In step S6, which follows step S5a, as in FIG. 17 shown - the roof end profiles 14, 16 and thus the profile axes P1, P2 are arranged such that they run at right angles to the vertical axis H and parallel to the leg axes S1, S2 and with respect to the vertical axis H at the first angle α=270° to each other.

[0073] In step S7, which follows step S6, the first roof end profile 14 is connected to the second roof end profile 16 by - as in FIGS. 19 and 20 shown - the plug-in leg 20 is inserted into the receiving groove 24 and the plug-in leg 22 is inserted into the receiving groove 26.

The roof corner 8 is in FIG. 16 shown, and the roof corner angle δ runs across the roof surface from the FIG. 15 right roof edge 8" counterclockwise to the left roof edge 8'.

[0075] In this embodiment of the system 10, the roof end profiles 14, 16 are each designed according to a third embodiment. This embodiment is similar to the second embodiments of the roof end profiles 14, 16, so the differences will be explained in more detail below.

[0076] In these embodiments, the roof end profiles 14, 16 are simply replaced by the profile blanks 140, 160 of the FIGS. 7, 8 and 16 formed so that they do not have inclined surfaces 44, 46 as in the first and second embodiments of the FIGS. 9, 10 and 11 or the FIG. 17 , 18 , 19 and 20 nor recesses as in the second embodiments of the FIG. 17 , 18 , 19 and 20The plug-in legs 20, 22 are inserted into the receiving grooves 26, 28 to such an extent that the contact surfaces 40, 42 rest on the end 14' of the roof end profile 14, which is formed by the end 140' of the profile blank 140, or on the end 16" of the roof end profile 16, which is formed by the end 160" of the profile blank 160.
