The clamping device serves for the releasable connection of two profile pieces, it being possible for an insert core (1) to be introduced and fixed in a first of the profile pieces, in which insert core an axially movable slide (7) bears two pivotable clamping elements (11) each with a clamping hook (13; 14) which can be introduced at least partially into an opening of a second profile piece (15) in order to exert a clamping pressure on that section of the second profile piece (15) which partially closes off the opening. The insert core (1) has eccentric means (5) in order to displace the slide (7) axially. Two oblique surfaces (43) are provided in the insert core (1) in order to displace the clamping element transversely during its axial displacement. In addition to the clamping hook (13; 14), the clamping element (11) comprises a strip-like part with a bent-over strip end designed as hinge hook (34). The slide (7) has a flat end part (9) with a recess (10) into which the hinge hook (34) can be fitted pivotably, but with little play.

Abstract

The clamping device serves for the releasable connection of two profile pieces, it being possible for an insert core (1) to be introduced and fixed in a first of the profile pieces, in which insert core an axially movable slide (7) bears two pivotable clamping elements (11) each with a clamping hook (13; 14) which can be introduced at least partially into an opening of a second profile piece (15) in order to exert a clamping pressure on that section of the second profile piece (15) which partially closes off the opening. The insert core (1) has eccentric means (5) in order to displace the slide (7) axially. Two oblique surfaces (43) are provided in the insert core (1) in order to displace the clamping element transversely during its axial displacement. In addition to the clamping hook (13; 14), the clamping element (11) comprises a strip-like part with a bent-over strip end designed as hinge hook (34).
