Abstract

The shelving comprises a support bearing (2) for the shelf board and holders (4) extending parallel to the support bearing at a distance from it so that a coupling socket is formed to hold the edge of the board between support bearing and holder. The holder and support bearing are connected together by a web (6) which has a socket (3) for a wall fixture. The support bearing and holder can each be formed by open hollow bodies (7,8) so that recesses are formed without rear cut sections in a single injection moulding process. The shelf holder can be comfortably moved along the slide face.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Regal gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a Shelf according to the preamble of claim 1.

Regalhalter bekannter Art bestehen aus einer horizontalen Auflagefläche und aus einer zur ersteren senkrechten Stützfläche, die an einer senkrechten Konstruktion, üblicherweise an einer Wand befestigt wird.Shelf holders of a known type consist of a horizontal contact surface and from one to the the former vertical support surface, which on a vertical construction, usually on a Wall is attached.

An der Auflagefläche wird eine Auflage z.B. in der Form eines Brettes angeordnet, das je nach Gewicht und Längsausdehnung der abzustützenden Lasten durch mindestens einen weiteren Regalhalter abgestützt werden muß. Die Auflagefläche muß überdies eine Tiefe bzw. eine Auflagelänge aufweisen, die mindestens gleich dem Abstand des Schwerpunktes der Auflage vom innersten Auflagepunkt der Auflage selbst im Fall sein muß, wo die Auflage nur ganz einfach aufgelegt ist: andernfalls muß die Auflage am Regalhalter befestigt werden oder für sie ist es nicht möglich einen auskragenden Halter zu verwenden. A support e.g. in the Shape of a board arranged depending on the weight and longitudinal expansion of the loads to be supported by supported at least one further shelf holder must become. The contact surface must also be one Depth or a support length that at least equal to the distance from the center of gravity of the Edition from the innermost point of the edition even in the case where the edition is only complete is simply put on: otherwise the edition must can be attached to the shelf bracket or it is for them not possible to use a cantilever holder.

Die Druckschriften US-A- 4 799 643 (D1), US A-4 508 301 (D2) und EP-A- 0 770 650 (D3) zeigen alle einen Regalhalter, bestehend aus einer Auflage zur Abstützung eines Brettes im Bereich seines Randes und aus Befestigungsmitteln zur festen Verbindung der Auflage mit einer senkrechten Konstruktion, wobei der Regalhalter ein. Haltemittel aufweist, das sich im wesentlichen parallel zur Auflage und mit Abstand von derselben derart erstreckt, dass zwischen der Auflage und dem Haltemittel der Brettrand aufgenommen werden kann, wobei die Auflage und das Haltemittel mittels eines Steges miteinander verbunden sind.US-A-4 799 643 (D1), US A-4 508 301 (D2) and EP-A-0 770 650 (D3) all a shelf holder consisting of one Support for supporting a board in the area its edge and fasteners for fixed connection of the support with a vertical Construction, with the shelf holder a. Has retaining means, which is essentially parallel to and at a distance from the rest extends in such a way that between the edition and the holding means of the board edge added can be, the edition and that Holding means together by means of a web are connected.

Im Dokument D1 ist eine starre Auflage aus vollem Werkstoff vorgesehen, die für die Aufnahme des Befestigungsmittels vorgesehen ist und mit einem Absatz, ebenfalls aus vollem Material, als Haltemittel zusammenwirkt. Das volle Material ist für ein Spritzgießen wegen der großen Wandstärken nicht gut geeignet und wegen der Starrheit des Regalhalters ist wegen mangelnder Elastizität des vollen Materials ein Zusammenwirken zwischen Auflage und Haltemittel bei eingespannten Brett nicht oder in einem nicht zufriedenstellenden Ausmaß gegeben.In document D1 there is a rigid edition from full Material provided for inclusion the fastener is provided and with a paragraph, also made of full material, interacts as a holding means. The full material is for injection molding because of the big one Wall thicknesses not well suited and because of the Rigidity of the shelf holder is due to lack Elasticity of the full material an interaction between support and holding means not clamped board or not in one given satisfactory extent.

D2 beschreibt einen Regalhalter, dessen Auflage zwar hohl ist, jedoch ein geschlossenes Profil auf weist, das noch dazu an seitlichen Enden des Regalhalters durch Deckel verschlossen wird. Diese Konstruktion ist ebenfalls starr in der Ausführung und die Befestigungsmittel sind am Haltemittel vorgesehen, wobei somit dieses letzteres eher als Aufhängeelement als Halter gegen ein Abkippen des Brettes dient.D2 describes a shelf holder, its support is hollow, but a closed profile on that, moreover at the lateral ends of the shelf holder closed by a lid becomes. This construction is also rigid in the execution and the fasteners are provided on the holding means, thus this the latter rather as a hanging element than a holder to prevent the board from tipping over.

Im D3 ist ein Regalhalter gezeigt, der aus mehreren Teilen besteht, um für verschiedene Wandstärken von abzustützenden Brettern einstellbar zu sein. Schon durch die Einstellbarkeit ist das obere Haltemittel kompliziert und aufwendig in der Ausführung und die Einspannung des Brettes wird durch eine eigene Klemmschraube erzielt. In the D3 a shelf holder is shown, which consists of several Parts exist to order for different wall thicknesses adjustable from boards to be supported to be. The adjustability is enough the upper holding means complicated and expensive in the execution and clamping of the board is achieved by a separate clamping screw.

Eine der Aufgaben der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht daher darin, ein Regal vorzuschlagen, das die Verwendung eines Regalbrettes auch im Falle erlauben soll, wo für die Regalhalter bekannter Art eine Kippgefahr bestand.One of the objects of the present invention is therefore to propose a shelf that the use of a shelf also in the case should allow where known for the shelf holder there was a risk of tipping over.

Eine weitere Aufgabe liegt darin, eine Regalhalterkonstruktion derart vorzuschlagen, daß sie einstückig, einfach in der Anordnung und mittels einer Kunststoffgießform herstellbar ist.Another task is to design a shelf bracket to propose that they in one piece, simple in arrangement and by means of a plastic mold can be produced.

Diese Aufgaben werden durch ein Regal mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.These tasks are covered by a shelf with the characterizing features of claim 1 solved.

Indem eine "zangenartige" Konstruktion vorgeschlagen wird, ist es möglich den Randbereich einer Auflage im wesentlichen formschlüssig derart aufzunehmen, daß die Auflage selbst stabil gehalten wird, ohne daß irgendeine Notwendigkeit bestünde, die Auflage am Regalhalter zu befestigen, um sowohl eine Verstellung der Auflage als auch ein Kippen zu verhindern, sobald der Schwerpunkt der Gesamtheit der Auflage/Last sich außerhalb des Auflagebereiches befindet.By proposing a "pincer-like" construction the edge area of a Essentially form-fit to record such that the edition itself kept stable without any need, attach the pad to the shelf bracket to both an adjustment of the edition as well as a tipping prevent once the focus of the entirety the support / load is outside the support area located.

Dadurch, dass der Steg zur Herstellung der Aufnahme oder der Aufnahmen für die Befestigungsschrauben verwendet wird, sind die Schrauben für die Montage und Demontage leicht zugänglich.The fact that the web for producing the Recording or the recordings for the fastening screws is used, the screws are for the Assembly and disassembly easily accessible.

So kann die Kupplungsaufnahme gleichzeitig mit der Konstruktion der Auflageebene und der Halteebene in einem einzigen Spritzgußvorgang ausgeführt werden. So the clutch holder simultaneously with the construction of the Support level and the holding level in one Injection molding process to be carried out.

Die Spannung der Befestigungsschraube bzw. - schrauben wird, gegeben durch den erfindungsgemäßen Aufbau des Regalhalters und die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung der Schraube bzw. schrauben am Verbindungssteg, auf die Auflage und das Haltemittel übertragen, so dass die beiden dazu neigen sich einander zu nähern und den Brettrand zwischen sich fest zu spannen.The tension of the fastening screw or - is screwed, given by the invention Structure of the shelf holder and the invention Arrangement of the screw or screws on the connecting bridge, on the support and that Transfer holding means, so the two of them tend to approach each other and the board edge to tighten between them.
