Device for securing a panel in a groove by tightening wedges arranged on one side of the panel

A device for securing a vertical panel in a longitudinal groove, the panel being delimited transversely, in the direction of its thickness, by an inner vertical face and by an outer vertical face, the securing device comprising:

• a cradle intended to be housed in the groove, the cradle comprising a sole for bearing on the bottom of the groove, a vertical outer flange intended to be interposed transversely between the outer face of the panel and an outer lateral face of the groove, and a vertical inner flange having a lower ramp surface;
• means for tightening the panel, the means for tightening the panel configured to be interposed solely between the inner face of the panel and an inner lateral face of the groove, the means for tightening comprising:
• an upper wedge transversely interposed between an upper ramp surface of the inner lateral face of the groove and the inner face of the panel;
• and
• a lower wedge arranged below the upper wedge and transversely interposed between the lower ramp surface of the cradle and the inner face of the panel;
• wherein each wedge is received vertically slidable in the groove from a released position to a tight position;
• wherein the vertical inner flange of the cradle is intended to be interposed transversely between the inner lateral face of the groove and the lower wedge.
