ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a connecting element for efficiently connecting components and subassemblies with the most diverse configurations to wall, ceiling and floor surfaces of buildings or frames. The connecting element has two coupling halves (1a, 1b) that can be interconnected by jointing and can be fixed to components or subassemblies to be connected by fixing means. The coupling halves and the fixing means are proportioned to guarantee that the connected components or subassemblies maintain a predetermined mechanically stable state during the exertion of operational forces. According to the invention, coupling halves of conduits (2a, 2b,10, 22, 32, 33, 34, 35) are arranged inside the coupling halves for connecting liquid conduits, gas conduits, electrical conduits or signal conduits, whereby during operation, the conduit coupling halves are connected to the end sections of the conduits to be connected and the coupling halves (1a, 1b) have passages, through which the conduits are directed towards the exterior. The coupling halves are configured in the connected operational state as a housing for the conduit coupling halves (2a, 2b, 10, 22, 32, 33, 34, 35), said housing being designed in such a way that the conduit coupling halves (2a, 2b, 10, 22, 32, 33, 34, 35) and the end sections of the conduits to be connected are protected from operational or environmental damage.
