Abstract

A mounting element for a vertically adjustable installation of a runner rail in a pocket drywall construction including a mounting plate and a mounting angle, wherein the mounting plate has a first raster profile and the mounting angle has a second raster profile complementary to the first raster profile, and wherein the second raster profile of the mounting angle can be interlocked at the first raster profile of the mounting plate in different positions to allow for the mounting angle to be adjustably fastened to the mounting plate is disclosed.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A mounting element for a vertically adjustable installation of a runner rail in a pocket drywall construction comprising: a mounting plate and a mounting angle; wherein the mounting plate has a first raster profile and the mounting angle has a second raster profile complementary to the first raster profile; and wherein the second raster profile of the mounting angle can be interlocked at the first raster profile of the mounting plate in different positions to allow for the mounting angle to be adjustably fastened to the mounting plate. 
     
     
         2 . The mounting element according to  claim 1 , wherein the mounting plate is configured as a U-shaped mounting bracket, wherein a first side element and a-second side element of the U-shaped mounting bracket comprise at least one male or female joint element. 
     
     
         3 . The mounting element according to  claim 1 , wherein the mounting plate has at least one guiding element, which is formed in such a way as to guide a sliding movement of the mounting angle along to the mounting plate. 
     
     
         4 . The mounting element according to  claim 3 , wherein the mounting plate has two guiding elements that are configured as abutting edges aligned in parallel. 
     
     
         5 . The mounting element according to  claim 1 , wherein the mounting plate comprises height indication means capable of indicating the relative vertical position of the mounting angle with the mounting plate. 
     
     
         6 . The mounting element according to  claim 1 , wherein the mounting angle comprises at least one slit designed to fit a screw for a vertically adjustable connection of the mounting angle to the mounting plate. 
     
     
         7 . The mounting element according to  claim 1 , wherein the mounting angle comprises at least one hole designed to fit a screw for additionally fixing the mounting angle to the mounting plate. 
     
     
         8 . The mounting element according to  claim 1 , wherein the first raster profile and the second raster profile is formed as a triangular-shaped profile or as a wave-shaped profile or as a square-shaped profile.
