Abstract
A wall anchor (1), having an anchor plate (2) with a front face (3) and a rear face (4), a fixing portion (5) which protrudes from the front face (4) of the anchor plate (2), which extends along a centre axis (M) and has a threaded structure (6) for receiving an anchor bolt (7), and two hooks (8, 9) which protrude from the rear face (4) of the anchor plate (2). The hooks (8, 9) are configured such that the wall anchor (1) can be fixedly connected to a profile rail (18) by protrusions (21) of a profile rail (18), with respect to forces acting in the direction of the centre axis (M).

A wall anchor, comprising:
- an anchor plate with a front face and a rear face,
- a fixing portion which protrudes from the front face of the anchor plate, which extends along a center axis and has a threaded structure for receiving an anchor bolt, and
- two hooks which protrude from the rear face of the anchor plate, wherein the hooks are configured such that the wall anchor can be fixedly connected to a profile rail by protrusions of a profile rail, with respect to forces acting in the direction of the center axis;
- wherein the anchor plate has a side face between the front face and the rear face, wherein the side face at one of the hooks is configured as a rounding and wherein the side face at the other of the hooks is formed with a first surface portion and a second surface portion, wherein the two surface portions are flat surfaces which stand inclined at an angle to one another.
An arrangement comprising a wall anchor and a profile rail,
- wherein said wall anchor comprises
- an anchor plate with a front face and a rear face,
- a fixing portion which protrudes from the front face of the anchor plate, which extends along a center axis and has a threaded structure for receiving an anchor bolt, and
- two hooks which protrude from the rear face of the anchor plate, wherein the hooks are configured such that the wall anchor can be fixedly connected to the profile rail by protrusions of the profile rail, with respect to forces acting in the direction of the center axis,
- wherein the profile rail has a base leg and two side legs protruding from the base leg, wherein each of the side legs has one of the protrusions which protrudes into the region between the two side legs and in which said hooks engage;
- and
- wherein the base leg is formed substantially flat and wherein each protrusion is directly adjoined to the base leg, and each side leg extends from the corresponding protrusion as a flat leg.
An arrangement comprising a wall anchor and a profile rail,
- wherein said wall anchor comprises
- an anchor plate with a front face and a rear face,
- a fixing portion which protrudes from the front face of the anchor plate, which extends along a center axis and has a threaded structure for receiving an anchor bolt, and
- two hooks which protrude from the rear face of the anchor plate, wherein the hooks are configured such that the wall anchor can be fixedly connected to the profile rail by means of protrusions of the profile rail, with respect to forces acting in the direction of the center axis,
- wherein the profile rail has a base leg and two side legs protruding from the base leg, wherein each of the side legs has one of said protrusions which protrudes into the region between the two side legs and in which said hooks engage, and
- wherein the arrangement furthermore comprises a bottom rail and a mounting frame, wherein the bottom rail has a receiving space and wherein the mounting frame can be placed in the receiving space by at least one foot support and is pivotable relative to the bottom rail, wherein at the upper end of the mounting frame, at least one anchor bolt is rotatably mounted in a fixing opening in the mounting frame, wherein the anchor bolt is in engagement with the threaded structure on the fixing portion of the wall anchor.
