Device for routing lines, pipes, and/or cables through a building structure part

A device for routing one or more lines, pipes, or cables through a building part, comprising:

• a housing defining a passage channel that extends in a longitudinal direction;
• the housing comprising an upper housing half and a lower housing half, each having a substantially U-shaped cross-section, the upper and lower housing halves being detachably connected to one another along longitudinal side edges thereof;
• the housing having an upper wall, a lower wall, a left wall, and a right wall that together form the passage channel, and having a first end opening and a second end opening located opposite one another along the longitudinal direction;
• each of the first and second end openings receiving an upper sealing arrangement and a lower sealing arrangement, the upper sealing arrangement being positioned adjacent to the upper wall of the upper housing half and the lower sealing arrangement being positioned adjacent to the lower wall of the lower housing half of the respective first and second end openings;
• each sealing arrangement including a first sealing surface comprising a plurality of elongated sealing elements extending in a vertical direction in the passage channel and a second sealing surface comprising a plurality of elongated sealing elements extending in a horizontal direction in the passage channel, the vertical and horizontal sealing elements being oriented substantially 90 degrees with respect to one another about a transverse plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction;
• wherein the sealing elements extending in the horizontal direction extend from the left and right walls of the housing up to a central region, and the sealing elements extending in the vertical direction extend from the upper and lower walls of the housing up to the central region, the sealing elements from opposite sides being unconnected and meeting in mutual proximity at the central region;
• wherein each elongated sealing element has a stiffness that decreases from a region of connection to its respective housing wall toward its free end located near the central region;
• wherein the first and second sealing surfaces of each sealing arrangement are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction and lie in non-intersecting planes;
• and
• wherein each of the upper and lower sealing arrangements is connected to the housing by a rail-shaped connecting element that receives the respective sealing arrangement and is configured to be plugged or clipped into the respective longitudinal edge of the housing, thereby securing the sealing arrangements within the housing.
