[0002] Plug-in profile holder and use of the plug-in profile holder

[0003] The invention relates to a plug-in profile holder for the simple, detachable fastening of a plug-in profile, for example as a plug-in leg or plug-in foot, and to the use of the plug-in profile holder, in particular for the arrangement and fastening of corresponding plug-in profiles as plug-in legs, plug-in feet, supports or railings, or for other pluggable profiles, tubes and adapters, which are flexible in length and / or cross-section.

[0004] There are already known plug-in profile mounts where, however, especially when not in use or during transport, and without a plug-in profile (e.g., plug-in foot or leg), parts such as clamping elements like wedges or other clamping devices can shift, loosen, or fall off. In the past, additional precautions and protective elements were implemented to prevent this. For example, the area of ​​the clamping element was covered with a stacking buffer and / or a fall-out protection device made of metal, plastic, or rubber to prevent it from falling out. In addition to the extra components, assembly is always complex, as completeness and correct positioning must first be verified and ensured.

[0005] On the other hand, with the known plug-in profile mounts, the clamping elements used are only clamped by means of a screw, i.e., pressed down at only one point, so that a local force point occurs and displacements, clamping or stresses can also occur.

[0006] DE 102010016107 B4 discloses a plug-in leg mount in which a clamping wedge can be clamped by means of only one clamping screw or an eccentric. The clamping screw or eccentric has a mushroom-shaped profile at its end facing the clamping wedge, which is inserted into a complementary recess in the clamping wedge. Without a plug-in leg or without a clamped plug-in leg, there is a risk that the clamping wedge will slip off the mushroom-shaped profile and be lost. 12511 PCTS Plug-in Profile Mount 2

[0007] The object of the invention is therefore to create a plug-in profile holder for the detachable fastening of a plug-in profile, in which the movable parts necessary for fastening remain securely in the intended position even when not in use or during transport and are not lost or shifted.

[0008] The invention achieves, in the specified application, that a plug-in profile receptacle, for example as a corner angle, is created for the detachable fastening of a plug-in profile as a plug-in foot or plug-in leg or other profiles and applications, wherein the plug-in profile receptacle has at least two wall sections arranged at an angle to each other, which define a plug-in profile receptacle area.

[0009] The wall sections arranged at angles to each other can be arranged at different angles or with different angular dimensions. This includes right-angled arrangements, obtuse-angled arrangements (greater than 90 degrees to each other), and acute-angled arrangements (greater than 90 degrees to each other).

[0010] A corner area exists between at least two wall sections. This corner area can be projecting or extended, or it can be an area projecting or extended in relation to the angularly arranged wall sections.

[0011] The plug-in profile receiving area represents the area in which the respective plug-in profile is arranged, inserted, or plugged in and can be clamped or secured. This plug-in profile receiving area can be a rectangular, triangular, polygonal, rounded, or cornerless surface, or a combination thereof, which is bounded at least by at least two wall sections arranged at angles to each other. Away from or opposite these at least two wall sections arranged at angles to each other, the plug-in profile receiving area can be bounded by at least one further wall section or by a frame or mounting location. This boundary of the plug-in profile receiving area away from or opposite these at least two wall sections arranged at angles to each other is defined as...12511 PCTS plug-in profile receiving area 3

[0012] Wall sections can be straight, curved, angled (single or multiple), or a combination thereof.

[0013] The corner area represents a sub-area or a projecting area that merges seamlessly into the plug-in profile receiving area without any demarcation or boundary. The corner area can be a sub-area of ​​the plug-in profile receiving area.

[0014] In the corner area, a clamping element is movably arranged so that it can be moved at least in the direction of the plug-in profile receiving area. The clamping element can be tensioned or clamped against the plug-in profile. At the end facing the plug-in profile, the clamping element has a wedge-shaped concave structure or a V-shaped notch, ensuring that the respective plug-in profile can be reliably tensioned or clamped. This also facilitates tensioning and clamping regardless of the profile. Thus, round or square profiles can be tensioned and clamped.

[0015] Furthermore, the clamping element is connected to a U-shaped clamp. The U-shaped clamp has two parallel legs and a connecting bridge linking the two parallel legs. The two parallel legs extend to the clamping element.

[0016] The corner section includes a through-hole and has an internal thread. The through-hole and the internal thread can be combined or independent and multi-part. The through-hole and the internal thread are advantageously aligned. Furthermore, an eccentric clamp or an adjusting element is present. The eccentric clamp or the adjusting element each have an external threaded section. The eccentric clamp or the adjusting element is connected to the U-shaped clamp and to the internal thread. The external threaded section of the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element engages with the internal thread, allowing it to be screwed in and thus its position to be changed axially.The eccentric clamp or adjusting element with external thread section can, for example, be a threaded rod or a shaft with an external thread section or a shaft with an external thread section that has no thread at the clamping element side end or 12511 PCTS plug-in profile mount 4.

[0017] The adjusting element may have a reduced diameter, with or without a thread. For example, the adjusting element could be an adjusting screw, a stud screw, a machine screw, or another similarly rotatable and / or clampable adjusting element, via which or with which the clamping element can be indirectly clamped or secured against the plug-in profile.

[0018] Advantageously, the stud screw can have a square or hexagonal bit connection, an internal or external hexagon, or an internal or external hexagon.

[0019] The clamping element can be clamped or secured against the plug-in profile by means of the U-shaped clamp and indirectly via the adjusting element. The U-shaped clamp can be moved against the clamping element by means of the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element, according to the rotational movement or axial displacement of the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element, so that the clamping element clamps or secures the plug-in profile against an abutment, for example against at least one of the angled wall sections, against two of the angled wall sections, against opposing wall sections, or against a frame or mounting location.

[0020] In an arrangement with, for example, three wall sections arranged at an angle to each other, which thus form a triangular plug-in profile receiving area, the clamping or tightening can take place against the wall section that is opposite the corner area with the clamping element and the two wall sections adjacent to the corner area.

[0021] The clamping element can be, for example, a clamping wedge or a clamping block or a multi-part clamping device, which can be clamped or secured by means of an adjusting element or eccentric clamp.

[0022] Furthermore, the eccentric clamp or adjusting element extends through the through-opening into the clamping element without being involved in, or needing to be involved in, clamping or tightening the plug-in profile. 12511 PCTS Plug-in Profile Receptacle 5

[0023] The special feature is that the clamping element is guided through the u-shaped clamp several times and is moved indirectly via the u-shaped clamp by the head of the adjusting element.

[0024] This design ensures that the clamping element remains securely and reliably in its position on the plug-in profile receptacle, regardless of the profile's condition, use, position, or transport, and does not shift position or fall out. This also eliminates the need for additional securing mechanisms or components. All components involved in the regular function of clamping or securing the plug-in profile can also be used to secure the clamping element within the plug-in profile receptacle, particularly during transport. The U-shaped clamp provides multiple guide points for the locking mechanism, ensuring an even distribution of the locking force.

[0025] Another aspect of the invention provides for the use of the plug-in profile holder according to the invention for the flexible arrangement and fastening of corresponding plug-in profiles in terms of length and / or cross-section as plug-in legs, plug-in feet, supports or railings, or for other pluggable profiles on platforms, stage platforms, tables or other platforms or modules or elements or cabinets. Thus, the plug-in profile holder according to the invention can be used universally without the risk of losing a necessary clamping element. Advantageously, different profile types and different lengths can be used and combined according to the requirements.

[0026] The plug-in profile receptacle according to the invention can also be used as a corner angle on platforms, stage platforms, tables or other platforms or modules or elements or cabinets.

[0027] Advantageous embodiments for the plug-in profile holder are shown in the dependent claims. 12511 PCTS Plug-in profile holder 6

[0028] Advantageously, the corner area can include or feature a corner wall section. The corner area or corner wall section is connected to at least two adjacent wall sections. The corner area or corner wall section is advantageously connected to or transitions into the two adjacent wall sections. This increases the stability of the plug-in profile connection. Forces are thus reliably absorbed, distributed, and dissipated.

[0029] The through-hole and the internal thread are advantageously located in the corner wall section, thus simplifying the construction and increasing stability.

[0030] Advantageously, four wall sections arranged at angles to each other are present, with the four mutually angled wall sections defining the plug-in profile receiving area. This further increases the stability of the plug-in profile retention.

[0031] This allows forces to be absorbed, distributed, and dissipated more reliably. The four wall sections, arranged at angles to each other, can have different angles or angular dimensions relative to one another. This includes right-angled arrangements, obtuse-angled arrangements (greater than 90 degrees to each other), and acute-angled arrangements (greater than 90 degrees to each other).

[0032] Advantageously, the internal thread in the corner area or in the corner wall section is provided as a threaded hole directly, or as a nut, or as a counter thread or internal thread arrangement, wherein the nut, the counter thread, or the internal thread arrangement can be inserted, slid, cast in, hammered in, screwed in, or pressed into the corner wall section or corner area.

[0033] In a simpler design, the internal thread can also be provided as a threaded hole in a through hole in the corner area or corner wall section, thus requiring fewer components. Depending on the material of the corner wall section, a reinforced construction may be necessary.

[0034] The internal thread can be used as a suitably shaped nut or as a 12511 PCTS plug-in profile holder 7

[0035] Insert or insert a correspondingly shaped counter-thread or internal thread arrangement into grooves or profiles, ensuring the necessary force is applied while simultaneously preventing rotation. For this purpose, the corner area or corner wall section features corresponding grooves, undercuts, rails, or openings.

[0036] The nut, mating thread, or internal thread arrangement can be, for example, a sliding nut, a sliding nut, a T-nut, or a hammer nut. Depending on the groove or profile, other types of nuts are also possible.

[0037] The nut, the mating thread or the internal thread arrangement can also be cast, hammered, screwed or pressed into the corner area or the corner wall section.

[0038] Advantageously, the connecting bridge of the U-shaped clamp has a connecting bridge through-opening or a connecting bridge recess. The eccentric clamp or adjusting element is guided through this opening or recess to or into the clamping element. This advantageously ensures that the force required for clamping or tightening is applied evenly by the eccentric clamp or adjusting element to or into the U-shaped clamp and distributed across the two parallel legs. The locking mechanism is guided at multiple points by the U-shaped clamp / connecting element, thus guaranteeing an even distribution of the locking force.

[0039] Advantageously, the parallel legs can each have a profiled end or termination. For example, ball-shaped ends, mushroom-shaped ends, terminations, constrictions, undercuts, or notches at the end or in the area of ​​the ends of the parallel legs are possible. Corresponding designs for a U-shaped clamp can be stamped from flat material, cast using a tool, or milled from round material, and then subsequently bent or folded. Thus, the parallel legs not only press against the clamping element but also allow for...12511 PCTS plug-in profile holder 8

[0040] a guide and position securing in the clamping element and / or the clamping element.

[0041] Advantageously, the clamping element has a receptacle that is complementary to the respective profiled end or termination, so that the profiled end or termination of the parallel legs fits reliably and securely into the receptacle on the clamping element. The receptacle can be, for example, a rail or a profile with an undercut. Alternatively, springs, spring plates, or locking plates can be used, into which the profiled ends or terminations can be slid, attached, inserted, or inserted.

[0042] Advantageously, the clamping element can be slid or attached to the profiled end or profiled termination of the parallel legs, thus simplifying the assembly of a clamping element.

[0043] Advantageously, the two parallel legs of the U-shaped clamp / connecting element are guided movably from outside the corner area through additional openings and / or recesses in the corner wall section, thus improving the positioning and stability of the clamping element in the plug-in profile receptacle. Furthermore, clear stop positions can be defined.

[0044] Advantageously, the connecting bridge can be designed or constructed in such a way that it extends over the entire height of the corner wall section and the parallel legs of the U-shaped clamp encompass the respective upper and lower edge areas of the corner area or corner wall section and are each led to the clamping element, or that the parallel legs of the U-shaped clamp are arranged in or through recesses in the respective upper and lower edge areas of the corner area or corner wall section and are each led to the clamping element.

[0045] Alternatively, the connecting bridge can advantageously be designed or constructed in such a way that the connecting bridge does not extend over the entire height of the corner area or corner wall section and the parallel legs of the u-12511 PCTS plug-in profile holder 9

[0046] shaped clamps are arranged in or through further openings in the corner area or corner wall section and are led to the clamping element.

[0047] Advantageously, a spring is arranged on each of the two parallel legs of the U-shaped clamp and / or on the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element between the corner area or corner wall section and the connecting bridge. The springs are designed and selected to exert pressure and, accordingly, press the U-shaped clamp into a starting position via the two parallel legs and / or along the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element over the connecting bridge. In this position, the clamping element does not tension or clamp the plug-in profile. This also promotes the positional stability and security of the clamping element in the plug-in profile receptacle, as the clamping element and the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element are always pulled towards each other, thus preventing rattling.

[0048] Advantageously, the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element projects into a blind hole or a through hole without threads, or into a blind hole or a through hole with an interference fit, or, if necessary, a threaded hole with a reliably large interference fit, so that free movement and rotation of the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element without torque, clamping, or hindrance in the clamping element is facilitated.

[0049] Advantageously, the length of the axial extension of the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element is adapted to or coordinated with the length of the two parallel legs of the U-shaped clamp, so that when tightening or loosening, clamping or releasing the clamping element, on the one hand the eccentric clamp or the adjusting element exerts no or only a small force on the clamping element and, on the other hand, always remains reliably in the blind hole or in the through hole, which also promotes the positional stability and the securing of the clamping element in the plug-in profile receptacle.

[0050] Advantageously, the at least two angled wall sections form a profile, so that the immovable parts of the plug-in profile receptacle together form a single structural unit, thus simplifying assembly and increasing stability.12511 PCTS Plug-in Profile Receptacle 10

[0051] is increased.

[0052] The four angularly arranged wall sections and the corner area and / or corner wall section around a continuous profile or a profile closed over the circumference are advantageous, thereby promoting the stability of the plug-in profile mounting and absorbing, distributing and dissipating any forces that occur.

[0053] Advantageous are the at least two angularly arranged wall sections or the angularly arranged wall sections and the corner area and / or corner wall section arranged on a closed or perforated base surface, which also promotes the stability of the plug-in profile mounting and absorbs, distributes and dissipates any forces that occur.

[0054] Advantageously, the two wall sections adjacent to the corner area and / or corner wall section can have a hollow profile with at least one chamber. The hollow profile has internal walls which, for example, form more than one chamber. Advantageously, the at least one chamber has a triangular cross-section, thus forming a force triangle, which promotes the stability of the plug-in profile connection and absorbs, distributes, and dissipates forces, preventing deformation. Advantageously, the hollow profile is located on the side of each of the two adjacent wall sections facing away from the plug-in profile connection area and is bounded by the corner area and / or corner wall section, so that forces occurring there are reliably absorbed or dissipated by the hollow profile.

[0055] Advantageously, the four angularly arranged wall sections have a hollow profile with at least one chamber, the hollow profile being located on the side of each wall section facing away from the plug-in profile receiving area, thereby increasing the stability of the plug-in profile receiving area.

[0056] Advantageously, the diagonally opposite corner area and / or corner wall section, forming a corner, can have a concave recess in the plug-in profile receiving area, whereby the 12511 PCTS plug-in profile receiving 11

[0057] The clamping or tightening of round profiles is facilitated by an enlarged contact area with the corresponding wall section opposite the clamping element.

[0058] Advantageously, the angularly arranged wall sections adjacent to or forming the corner diagonally opposite the corner area and / or corner wall section each have a fastening area, wherein the respective fastening area is an extension of the angularly arranged wall sections adjacent to this corner and the respective extension extends away from the corner beyond the transition to the angularly arranged wall section, thereby promoting the stability of the plug-in profile mounting and absorbing, distributing and dissipating forces, and also increasing the stability at the respective mounting location, such as on platforms, stage platforms, tables or other platforms or modules or elements or cabinets.

[0059] Advantageously, the respective extension forming a fastening area limits the hollow profile, and the wall section as a fastening area extends beyond the hollow profile or the thickness or depth of the hollow profile, thereby promoting the internal stability and the stability at or to the respective mounting location.

[0060] Advantageously, the plug-in profile mount can be screwed, bolted and / or inserted, clamped, snapped or anchored into profiles, grooves, rails or projections on the frame or mounting location via the fastening area on the frame or mounting location of the respective platforms, stage platforms, tables or other platforms or modules or elements or cabinets.

[0061] Several embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings and are described in more detail below. They show:

[0062] Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show a spatial representation in different perspectives of a plug-in profile mounting with four wall sections,

[0063] Fig. 4 shows a side view as a sectional representation of the plug-in profile holder according to 12511 PCTS plug-in profile holder 12

[0064] Figure 1 and

[0065] Fig. 5 shows a top view as a sectional representation of a plug-in profile mount with two wall sections on a frame of a stage platform, table or other platform.

[0066] Figures 1 to 4 show, with varying levels of detail, a plug-in profile receptacle 1 according to the invention for the detachable fastening of a plug-in profile 24, which, regardless of its profile cross-section and length, can be a plug-in leg, plug-in foot, support, railing, or other pluggable profile, as schematically illustrated in Figure 3. The plug-in profile receptacle 1 has four wall sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 arranged at right angles to each other, in this specific example, defining a plug-in profile receptacle area 3 in which the plug-in profile 24 can be inserted and clamped or secured.

[0067] Between two of the wall sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, specifically between wall sections 2.1 and 2.2, there is a projecting corner area 4, as shown in Figures 1 to 3. Corner area 4 has a corner wall section 5, which is connected to and extends into the two adjacent wall sections 2.1 and 2.2. Accordingly, corner area 4 transitions into the plug-in profile receiving area 3.

[0068] The angularly arranged wall sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 and the corner wall section 5 form a continuous and closed profile.

[0069] The corner area 4 comprises a through-opening 10 in the corner wall section 5, which extends from outside the plug-in profile receptacle 1 into the area defined by the corner area 4, and an internal thread 11, wherein the through-opening 10 and the internal thread 11 are aligned. A clamping element 6, for example as a clamping block, is movably arranged in the corner area 4, which is displaceable at least in the direction of the plug-in profile receptacle 3 and can be clamped or clamped against the plug-in profile 24. For insertion of the clamping element 6, it is also provided that the clamping element 6 can also be inserted transversely to the direction of the plug-in profile receptacle 13.

[0070] The plug-in profile mounting area 3 can be moved or parallel to the plug-in profile 24.

[0071] The clamping element 6, as shown particularly in Figures 2 and 4, is connected to a U-shaped clamp 7, the U-shaped clamp 7 having two parallel legs 8 and a connecting bridge 9 with a connecting bridge opening 14. Each of the parallel legs 8 has a profiled end 15 or a profiled termination, which can be slid, attached, inserted, or plugged into a complementary receptacle 16 on the clamping element 6. For example, each of the parallel legs 8 has a mushroom-shaped profiled end 15, so that it can be inserted into a C-profile rail on the clamping element 6 which has an undercut, as shown in Figure 2.

[0072] The two parallel legs 8 of the U-shaped clamp 7 are movably guided from outside the corner area 4 or the corner wall section 5 through further through-openings 17 in the corner wall section 5 into the corner area 4 and to the clamping element 6, and the profiled end 15 is inserted into the complementary receptacle 16 on the clamping element 6. A spring 18 is arranged on each of the two parallel legs 8 between the corner wall section 5 and the connecting bridge 9. The clamping element 6 can be clamped or secured against the plug-in profile 24 by means of the U-shaped clamp 7.

[0073] Furthermore, an adjusting element 12, for example as an adjusting screw or, depending on requirements or possibilities, also an eccentric clamp [not shown], is provided, each with an external threaded section 13. Although the following refers to the adjusting element 12, the explanations apply equally to the eccentric clamp. The adjusting element 12 is connected to the U-shaped clamp 7 and to the internal thread 11, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. The internal thread 11 is provided as a nut 13, for example in the form of a sliding nut or a T-nut, which is inserted into a profile rail section 25 in the corner wall section 5. The internal thread 11 can also be incorporated in the through-opening 10. In this case, the adjusting element 12 engages with the internal thread 11 via the external threaded section 13. The adjusting element 12 is connected through the connecting bridge through-opening 12511 PCTS plug-in profile receptacle 14.

[0074] 14 and also the through-opening 10 is guided and exerts pressure on the connecting bridge 9 according to the rotational movement or screwing movement and the screwing in or unscrewing, as a result of which the clamping element 6 moves towards or away from the plug-in profile 24 for clamping or jamming.

[0075] The adjusting element 12 extends through the through-opening 10 into the clamping element 6, projecting into a blind hole 19 or a through-bore 19 with an interference fit within the clamping element 6. The length of the axial extension of the adjusting element 12 is adapted to the length of the two parallel legs 8 of the U-shaped clamp 7, so that, despite screwing or clamping movements, the two parallel legs 8 of the U-shaped clamp 7 transmit the necessary force to the clamping element 6, and the adjusting element 12, or its axial end, secures the position of the clamping element 6 in the blind hole 19 or through-bore 19, regardless of the operating or application state.

[0076] In particular, the two wall sections 2.1 and 2.2 adjacent to corner wall section 5 comprise a hollow profile 20 with three chambers having a triangular cross-section. The hollow profile 20 is present on the side of each of the two adjacent wall sections 2.1 and 2.2 facing away from the plug-in profile receiving area 3 and is bounded by corner wall section 5 in the corner area 4.

[0077] Furthermore, the plug-in profile receptacle 1 comprises two fastening areas 23. Each fastening area 23 is located on the wall sections 2.3, 2.4, which are arranged at an angle to each other and which adjoin or converge at the corner 22 diagonally opposite corner area 4 and corner wall section 5. Each fastening area 23 represents an extension 23 of these wall sections 2.3, 2.4, which are arranged at an angle to corner 22. Thus, each extension 23 extends away from corner 22 and beyond the transition to the wall section 2.1, 2.2, which is also arranged at an angle to it. Accordingly, each extension 23 forming the fastening area 23 defines the hollow profile 20. In addition, the wall section 2.3, 2.4 extends beyond the hollow profile 20. The fastening area 23 can be attached by means of a 12511 PCTS plug-in profile receptacle 15.

[0078] Fastening elements can be screwed, clamped or joined using joining technology or inserted in a form-fitting manner.

[0079] The fastening area 23 can be screwed or clamped using a fastening element [not shown], or connected using joining technology, or inserted in a form-fitting manner.

[0080] Advantageously, the diagonally opposite corner area 4 and corner wall section 5, forming a corner 22 or adjacent to corner 22, the angularly arranged wall sections 2.3, 2.4 have a concave recess 21 in the plug-in profile receiving area 3, so that for plug-in profiles 24, in particular those that are round in cross-section or differ in shape, an enlarged contact or additional support is provided on the wall sections 2.3, 2.4.

[0081] Figure 5 shows a plug-in profile receptacle 1 according to the invention for the detachable fastening of a plug-in profile 24, as is essentially shown and described in Figures 1 to 4, so that reference is made to it and in particular to it for corresponding features.

[0082] In contrast to the embodiments shown in Figures 1 to 4, the plug-in profile receptacle 1 in Figure 5 has two wall sections 2.1, 2.2 arranged at right angles to each other. The plug-in profile receptacle 1 is arranged at a corner 22 of a frame 26 or at the mounting location of a platform, stage platform, table or other platform, or of a module, element or cabinet. The wall sections 2.1, 2.2 and the frame 26 define the plug-in profile receptacle area 3, into which the plug-in profile 24 can be inserted and clamped or secured against the frame 26 by means of the clamping element 6.

[0083] Between the two wall sections 2.1 and 2.2, there is also a projecting corner area 4. Corner area 4 has a corner wall section 5, which connects to and merges with the adjacent wall sections 2.1 and 2.2. Corner area 4 also merges into the plug-in profile receptacle 3. The right-angled wall sections 2.1 and 2.2 and corner wall section 5 form an open profile. 12511 PCTS plug-in profile receptacle 16

[0084] In addition to other matching features, the two wall sections 2.1 and 2.2 adjacent to corner wall section 5 comprise a hollow profile 20 with three chambers having a triangular cross-section. The hollow profile 20 is located on the side of each of the two adjacent wall sections 2.1 and 2.2 facing away from the plug-in profile receiving area 3 and is bounded by corner area 4 and corner wall section 5.

[0085] A further limitation of the hollow profile 20 is provided by the respective extension (23) forming a fastening area (23). The respective extension (23) is arranged at an angle to the wall section (2.1, 2.2) extending from the corner area (4) and / or corner wall section (5) and extends as a fastening area (23) beyond the hollow profile (20) and away from the plug-in profile receiving area 3.

[0086] The fastening area 23 can be screwed or clamped in place by means of a fastening element 28, for example in the form of a screw, or connected using joining technology, or inserted into a fastening profile 27 in a form-fitting manner. The use of the plug-in profile receptacle 1 according to the invention, which is also shown in Figures 1 to 4, allows the flexible use of plug-in profiles of virtually any round, oval, or rectangular shape, or combinations thereof, in terms of length and / or cross-section, for example as plug-in legs, plug-in feet, supports, or railings, or for other pluggable profiles. The plug-in profile can differ in shape within the plug-in profile receptacle area compared to the further course of the plug-in profile. Furthermore, the plug-in profile receptacle 1 provides for the flexible arrangement and fastening of corresponding plug-in profiles to platforms, stage platforms, tables, or other platforms, modules, elements, or cabinets.

[0087] The use of the plug-in profile receptacle 1 according to the invention, also shown in Figures 1 to 5, allows the flexible use of plug-in profiles 24 of virtually any length and / or cross-section, round, oval, or rectangular, or combined cross-sections, as, for example, plug-in legs, plug-in feet, supports, or railings, or for other pluggable profiles. Furthermore, with 12511 PCTS plug-in profile receptacle 17

[0088] The plug-in profile receptacle 1 provides for a flexible arrangement and fastening of corresponding plug-in profiles to platforms, stage platforms, tables or other platforms or modules or elements or cabinets as well as their frames 26 or at other mounting locations. 12511 PCTS plug-in profile receptacle 18
