ABSTRACT:
Coupling assembly joining two profiled rails, more particularly for use with a shower partition, the first profiled rail having an opening extending over its entire length and an inner space. A clamping element is mounted in this inner space and has a threaded hole in which a screw threads, the second profiled rail being secured to the first profiled rail by tightening of the said screw. In order to facilitate assembly and make it possible to carry out subsequent mutual alignment of the profiled rails with little effort, there is provided that the clamping element be insertable from the side and at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the first profiled rail through the above-mentioned opening and into the inner space, one leg of the second profiled rail passing through the opening into the inner space. This leg is clamped in a gap which is formed between a bearing surface of the clamping element and a web of the first profiled rail and/or a support element.
