ABSTRACT:
A butt joint employing a connecting element (3). The connecting element (3) is situated in a space formed by grooves (14,24) running along the abutting ends (40,42) of the panels (1,2) and/or sections (1a,2a). There are two expansion sections (31,32) with at least one interposed spring element (33), said sections (31,32) being displaceable in the direction of the surfaces (122,132,222,232) of the outer components of the panels (1,2) or sections (1a,2a) to which the expansion sections (31,32) can be adhesively bonded. These sections (31,32) have means for releaseable interlocking via tensed spring element/elements (33), and are such that the tensed, interlocked expansion sections (31,32) can be introduced with room for play in the grooves (14,24). The surfaces of the butt joints appear to have no interuption. The application lies in vehicle manufacture, architecture and civil engineering.
