ABSTRACT:
A connecting device is provided for a bearing bar consisting of a tube having such a connecting device at each of its two ends. The connecting device may be used to join horizontal and vertical scaffolding elements. The connecting device consists of a bearing head and a clamping device and is of such a design that its top edge lies in a plane with that of the tube attached thereto. In addition, the connecting device has bolts for a non-positive connection with overlying elements suspendable thereover. These constructional features of the connecting device allow the overlying elements, which have holes or eyelets to be pushed over the bolts of the bearing bar for suspending in the scaffold, to be placed close up to the post elements, so that virtually no gap between the overlying element and the post element is formed. Moreover, the length of the bearing bars may be dimensioned in such a way that frame scaffoldings and modular scaffoldings can be combined as result of an identically adjustable axial spacing of the pair of posts of a modular scaffolding with respect to the axial spacing of a frame scaffolding.
