Profiled plastic section for a metal/plastic composite profiled section

Abstract

The invention relates to a profiled plastic section () for a metal/plastic composite profiled section (). The profiled plastic section () comprises a first profiled element () and at least one second profiled element (). The first profiled element () and the second profiled element () together form a latching mechanism (), by means of which a form-fitting connection can preferably be produced between the first profiled element () and the second profiled element () in a width direction (x) and in a height direction (y). The first profiled element () and the second profiled element () overlap preferably over a large area when the form-fitting connection is produced between the first profiled element () and the second profiled element (), and the form-fitting connection can be produced on the cross-sectional plane (x, y) between the first profiled element () and the second profiled element () by latching the profiled elements () of the profiled plastic section (). The form-fitting connection between the first profiled element () and the second profiled element () is designed such that a movement of the first profiled element () and the second profiled element () in a longitudinal direction (z) of the profiled plastic section () is allowed when a first metal component () is connected to the first profiled element () and a second metal component () is connected to the second profiled element () preferably in a shear-resistant manner. The profiled plastic section () can likewise also be designed with more than two profiled elements (), and the basic principle according to the invention of generating a shear-free plastic/metal composite profiled section () can be carried over.
