Mounting device and method for connecting two support beams

Abstract

A mounting device (10) for connecting two support beams (20, 30, 40) of a rack has an attachment plate (11). The attachment plate (11) has a through-hole (14) arrangeable adjacent an opening (21) of a first (20) of the two support beams and at least one first engaging element (12) for engaging with a recess (31, 32) of a second (30; 40) of the two support beams when the attachment plate (11) is arranged with a first flat side (11C) facing the first support beam (20). The mounting device (10) further has an eccentric stud (15) insertable into the through-hole (14) of the attachment plate (11) and the opening (21) of the first support beam (20). Therein, turning the eccentric stud (15) adjusts a position of the first engaging element (12) in the recess (31, 32) of the second support beam (30; 40).
