Title

(EN) "IMPROVED MITRE JOINT SUPPORT"

(FR) SUPPORT D'ASSEMBLAGE À ONGLET AMÉLIORÉ

Abstract

(EN) A support for a mitre joint includes a base member with a central region and first and second arms extending at a characteristic angle. The first arm features a locating face and an inclined face spaced by side faces, with a bore extending through the arm at an inclination angle relative to the first direction. A first moveable member, associated with the first arm, includes an outwardly facing surface and an inwardly facing surface inclined at the same inclination angle. This member tapers from a wide end, containing a receiving portion, to a thin end. An adjustment mechanism, comprising a threaded member, extends through the arm's bore into the receiving portion. The inwardly facing surface abuts the arm's inclined face, allowing the adjustment mechanism to translate the moveable member along the first direction to facilitate joint alignment.

(FR) Un support pour un assemblage à onglet comprend un élément de base ayant une région centrale et des premier et second bras s'étendant selon un angle caractéristique. Le premier bras présente une face de positionnement et une face inclinée espacées par des faces latérales, un alésage s'étendant à travers le bras selon un angle d'inclinaison par rapport à la première direction. Un premier élément mobile, associé au premier bras, comprend une surface orientée vers l'extérieur et une surface orientée vers l'intérieur inclinée selon le même angle d'inclinaison. Cet élément s'effile d'une extrémité large, contenant une partie de réception, jusqu'à une extrémité mince. Un mécanisme de réglage, comprenant un élément fileté, s'étend à travers l'alésage du bras dans la partie de réception. La surface orientée vers l'intérieur vient en butée contre la face inclinée du bras, permettant au mécanisme de réglage de translater l'élément mobile le long de la première direction pour faciliter l'alignement de l'assemblage.
