Abstract

A shelf system has supporting rods (2) and shelf boards (3) provided with fastening devices for fastening them to the supporting rods (2) at various heights. The supporting rods are usually arranged in the comer areas of the rectangular shelf boards. Bores are pierced at certain heights in the supporting rods into which fastening elements such as supporting pegs can be plugged to hold the shelf boards at the corresponding height. The object of the invention is a novel shelf system which allows the height of the shelf boards to be continuously adjusted and in which the position of the shelf boards can be adjusted within a certain angular range. For that purpose, the supporting rods (2) are cylindrical and each shelf board (3) has in the middle of each of its face edges (4) a fastening device which consists of a pair of parallel clamping pins (5) which project beyond the respective face edge (4) and which are interconnected by a clamping screw (6) which pulls together both clamping pins (5), a supporting rod (2) being clamped between each pair of clamping pins.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Regalsystem mit Tragstangen und Regalbrettern, welche Befestigungsvorrichtungen zur Befestigung an den Tragstangen in unterschiedlichen Höhen aufweisen.The invention relates to a shelving system with support rods and shelves, which Fastening devices for attachment to the support rods in different Have heights.

Üblicherweise sind die Tragstangen zu Traggestellen zusammengefaßt, welche rechts und links in den Eckbereichen der rechteckigen Regalbretter angeordnet sind. In den Tragstangen sind in unterschiedlichen Höhen Bohrungen eingebracht, in welche Befestigungselemente wie Tragzapfen einsteckbar sind, die die Regalbretter in den verschiedenen Höhen halten.Usually the support rods are combined to support frames, which on the right and are arranged on the left in the corner areas of the rectangular shelves. In the Support rods are drilled in different heights, in which Fasteners such as trunnions can be inserted into the shelves hold different heights.

Das französische Patent Nr. 480 614 zeigt ein Regalsystem, bei dem die Regalbretter keine Befestigungsvorrichtungen aufweisen. Statt dessen werden diese auf querverlaufende Traversen aufgelegt, welche an ihren Enden je ein Paar über Schrauben zusammendrückbarer, gewölbter Klemmbacken aufweisen. Zum Tragen eines Regalbrettes müssen zwei Traversen zwischen jeweils zwei Tragstangen gespannt werden, so daß jedes Regalbrett von vier im Bereich seiner Ecken verlaufenden Stangen getragen wird. Die Befestigung eines Regalbrettes ist sehr aufwendig, da für jedes Brett zwei Traversen mit jeweils zwei Klemmen an zwei Pfosten befestigt werden und zueinander in der Höhe ausgerichtet werden müssen.French patent No. 480 614 shows a shelving system in which the shelves have no fastening devices. Instead, these are transversal Crossbars placed, which at their ends each have a pair that can be compressed using screws, have arched jaws. For carrying a shelf two crossbars must be stretched between two supporting rods, so that each shelf is supported by four bars running in the area of its corners becomes. Fastening a shelf board is very complex since there are two for each board Trusses with two clamps each can be attached to two posts and to each other must be aligned in height.

Das französische Patent Nr. 1 524 363 zeigt ein Regalsystem, bei dem jedes Regalbrett an allen vier Ecken, das heißt an den Endbereichen seiner einander gegenüberliegenden Stirnkanten, eine Befestigungsvorrichtung einem Paar mit über Schrauben zusammendrückbarer, gewölbter Klemmbacken aufweist. Diese Druckschrift offenbart im wesentlichen den Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1. Auch hier ist die Befestigung eines Brettes recht aufwendig, da vier Klemmbackenpaare auf vier Tragstangen aufgeschoben und daran festgeklemmt werden müssen.French Patent No. 1,524,363 shows a shelving system in which each shelf at all four corners, that is, at the end areas of its opposite one another Front edges, a fastening device a pair with compressible by screws, has curved jaws. This document discloses in essential the preamble of claim 1. Also here is the attachment of a board quite complex, since four pairs of jaws on four support rods have to be pushed on and clamped on.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein neuartiges Regalsystem zu schaffen, bei dem die Höhe der Regalbretter auf einfache Weise stufenlos verstellbar ist und bei dem die Lage der Regalbretter nebeneinanderliegender Regalabschnitte in einem gewissen Winkelbereich verstellbar ist. The object of the invention is to provide a novel shelving system in which the Height of the shelves is easily adjustable and in which the Position of the shelves of adjacent shelf sections in a certain Angular range is adjustable.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Tragstangen zylinderförmig sind und daß jedes Regalbrett in der Mitte seiner beiden Stirnkanten je eine Befestigungsvorrichtung, bestehend aus einem Paar parallel aus der Stirnkante herausragender Klemmstäbe, aufweist, welche über eine die beiden Klemmstäbe zusammenziehende Klemmschraube miteinander verbunden sind, wobei zwischen jedem Klemmstab-Paar eine Tragstange eingeklemmt ist.This object is achieved in that the support rods are cylindrical are and that each shelf in the middle of its two front edges one Fastening device, consisting of a pair parallel from the front edge outstanding clamping bars, which one of the two clamping bars contracting clamping screw are interconnected, with between a support rod is clamped in each clamping rod pair.

Das anstelle der Bohrungen und Tragzapfen gewählte Klemmsystem zur Fixierung der Regalbretter ermöglicht ein Festklemmen in beliebiger Höhe an den Tragstangen. Die Regalbretter können sich, von den Tragstangen ausgehend, in beliebigen radialen Richtungen erstrecken, da der Querschnitt der zylinderförmigen Tragstangen rund ist und somit ein Festklemmen in allen Positionen ermöglicht.The clamping system chosen instead of the holes and trunnion for fixing the Shelf boards allow clamping at any height on the support rods. The Shelf boards, starting from the support rods, can be in any radial Directions extend because the cross section of the cylindrical support rods is round and thus allows clamping in all positions.

Das erfindungsgemäße Regalsystem ermöglicht völlig neuartige Varianten der Regalmontage. Beispielsweise kann eine zentrale Tragstangen vorgesehen sein, von der aus sich mehrere (z.B. drei oder fünf) Regalabschnitte sternförmig radial nach außen erstrecken. Jedem Regalabschnitt ist eine äußere Tragstange zugeordnet, an der die äußeren Stirnkanten der Regalbretter festgeklemmt sind. Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, lange Regaleinheiten mehrerer aufeinanderfolgender Abschnitte zu realisieren, bei denen die Mittelachsen der Regalbretter aufeinanderfolgender Regalabschnitte entlang eines beliebigen Polygonzuges verlaufen. So kann die Regaleinheit beispielsweise einer gekrümmten Gebäudewand folgen.The shelving system according to the invention enables completely new variants of the Shelf assembly. For example, a central support rods can be provided by which consists of several (e.g. three or five) shelf sections in a radial shape extend outside. An outer support rod is assigned to each shelf section the outer front edges of the shelves are clamped. Of course it is also possible to have long shelf units of several consecutive sections to realize where the central axes of the shelves are consecutive Shelf sections run along any polyline. So it can Shelf unit, for example, follow a curved building wall.

Die gegen die zylindrische Tragstange anliegenden Innenflächen der Klemmstäbe sollten möglichst geradlinig verlaufen, so daß sie problemlos über den Umfang der Tragstange geschoben werden können. Auf diese Weise ist ein Anbringen und ein Entfernen eines Regalbrettes an beliebiger Stelle bei montiertem Regal möglich. Bei Klemmstäben mit gerundeten Klemmbacken ist dies schwieriger. Entweder muß ein Klemmstab völlig von dem Regalbrett gelöst und nach dem Einlegen der Regalstange in die Rundung des anderen Klemmstabes wieder befestigt werden. Alternativ kann das Regalbrett von oben eingesetzt werden, wobei die Tragstange in die einander gegenüberliegenden Rundungen der beiden Klemmstäbe geschoben wird. Es ist zu erkennen, daß Klemmstäbe mit geraden Innenflächen eindeutig die einfachste Regalbrettmontage ermöglichen. Die in bezug auf die Tragstangen nach außen gerichtete Fläche der Klemmstäbe kann eine beliebige Form haben.The inner surfaces of the clamping rods that bear against the cylindrical support rod should be as straight as possible, so that they can be easily extended over the circumference of the Support rod can be pushed. In this way there is an attachment and an It is possible to remove a shelf at any point with the shelf installed. At Clamping bars with rounded jaws make this more difficult. Either a Clamping bar completely detached from the shelf and after inserting the shelf bar be reattached in the curve of the other clamp bar. Alternatively, you can the shelf can be inserted from above, with the support rod in each other opposite curves of the two clamping rods is pushed. It's closed recognize that clamping bars with straight inner surfaces clearly the simplest Allow shelf mounting. The outside with respect to the support rods directed surface of the clamping bars can have any shape.

Vorzugsweise sind die Klemmstäbe an den einander gegenüberliegenden Stirnkanten der Regalbretter mindestens um den Betrag der Höhe der Klemmstäbe zueinander versetzt. Beispielsweise können die Klemmstäbe an der rechten Stirnkante der Regalbretter in die obere Hälfte des Regalbrettes eingelassen sein und an der linken Stirnkante in die untere Hälfte. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, bei nebeneinanderliegenden Regalabschnitten die Regalbretter in der gleichen Ebene anzuordnen. Die an der gleichen Tragstange befestigten Klemmvorrichtungen sind derart zueinander versetzt, daß sie einander nicht stören.The clamping bars are preferably on the opposite end edges the shelves to each other by at least the amount of the height of the clamping bars transferred. For example, the clamping bars on the right front edge of the Shelf boards are inserted in the upper half of the shelf board and on the left Front edge in the lower half. In this way it is possible to have side by side Shelf sections to arrange the shelves on the same level. The Clamping devices fastened to the same support rod are in relation to one another offset that they do not disturb each other.

Die Klemmschraube sollte zwischen den Stirnkanten der Regalbretter und den Tragstangen angeordnet sein. Eine auf der den Stirnkanten gegenüberliegenden Seite der Tragstangen liegende Klemmschraube würde die Anordnung nebeneinanderliegender Regalbretter in der gleichen Ebene behindern. Ebenfalls um die Anordnung nebeneinanderliegender Regalbretter in einer Höhe zu ermöglichen, sollte die Länge der freien Enden der Klemmstäbe jenseits der Klemmschrauben geringer sein als der Durchmesser der Tragstangen, damit die freien Enden nicht über die Tragstange hinausragen und gegen das benachbarte Regalbrett stoßen. Die Mindestlänge der freien Enden muß dem Radius der Tragstangen entsprechen, damit eine Klemmung durch die Klemmstäbe auf zwei äußeren Mantellinien der Tragstange erfolgt. The clamping screw should be between the front edges of the shelves and the Support rods may be arranged. One on the side opposite the front edges the clamping screw lying on the support rods would make the arrangement side by side Obstruct shelves in the same level. Also about the arrangement To allow adjacent shelves at a height should be the length the free ends of the clamping bars beyond the clamping screws may be less than that Diameter of the support rods so that the free ends do not over the support rod protrude and bump into the neighboring shelf. The minimum length of the free ends must correspond to the radius of the support rods, so that clamping done by the clamping rods on two outer surface lines of the support rod.

Am einfachsten ist die Klemmung dadurch zu ermöglichen, daß ein Klemmstab eines Klemmstab-Paares eine Durchgangsbohrung für die Klemmschraube und der andere Klemmstab eine Gewindebohrung aufweist. Der Schraubkopf der Klemmschraube liegt jenseits der Durchgangsbohrung an dem ersten Klemmstab an und zieht diesen beim Einschrauben der Klemmschraube in die Gewindebohrung in Richtung des zweiten Klemmstabes.The easiest way to enable the clamping is that a clamping rod of a Clamping rod pair one through hole for the clamping screw and the other Clamping rod has a threaded hole. The screw head of the clamping screw lies beyond the through hole on the first clamping rod and pulls it when screwing the clamping screw into the threaded hole in the direction of second clamping rod.

Wenn die Regalbretter eine ausreichende Materialfestigkeit aufweisen, ist es möglich, jeden Klemmstab nur mit einer einzigen Befestigungsschraube festzuschrauben. Diese sollte in der Mitte des gegen das Regalbrett anliegenden Abschnittes des Klemmstabes angeordnet sein, damit Kräfte und Momente, die auf die Verbindung zwischen Regalbrett und Klemmstab wirken, sicher übertragen werden. Eine Befestigungsschraube in einem Endbereich des Klemmstabes neigt zum Ausreißen.If the shelves have sufficient material strength, it is possible to screw each clamp rod with only a single fastening screw. This should be in the middle of the section of the Clamping rod can be arranged so that forces and moments on the connection act between the shelf and the clamping bar, be transferred safely. A Fastening screw in one end area of the clamping bar tends to tear out.

Eine simple und funktionelle Befestigung erfolgt durch Anbringen einer Durchgangsbohrung in dem Regalbrett und einer Gewindebohrung in dem Klemmstab, in die die Befestigungsschraube einschraubbar ist.A simple and functional attachment is made by drilling a through hole in the shelf and a threaded hole in the clamp bar, in the screw can be screwed in.

Obwohl die zentrale Klemmung durch zwei Klemmstäbe im mittleren Bereich der Regalbrettkanten auf den ersten Blick labil wirkt, hat sich erwiesen, daß sie sehr hohe Kräfte aufnehmen kann. Bei einem Regalsystem, bei dem die Tragstange aus einem Stahlrohr mit 40 mm Außendurchmesser gebildet wird und die Klemmstäbe aus rostfreien Vierkant-Stahlstäben mit einer Kantenlänge von 10 mm gebildet werden, welche über eine Länge von 60 mm in die Regalbretter eingelassen sind und deren freie Enden etwa 45 mm aus der Regalbrettebene herausragen, können die Regalbretter problemlos mit einem Gewicht von 80 kg belastet werden.Although the central clamping by two clamping bars in the middle of the Shelf edges seem unstable at first glance, it has been shown to be very can absorb high forces. In a shelving system where the support rod is made of a steel tube with 40 mm outer diameter is formed and the clamping rods formed from stainless square steel bars with an edge length of 10 mm which are embedded in the shelves over a length of 60 mm and the free ends of which protrude about 45 mm from the shelf level can Shelf boards can easily be loaded with a weight of 80 kg.

Neben herkömmlichen Befestigungsmethoden für die Befestigung der Tragstangen (z.B. Verschrauben an Wand, Boden oder Decke eines Raumes) wird ein vorteilhaftes, leicht einzubauendes und umzubauendes Spannsystem vorgeschlagen. Hierzu ist die Tragstange als Gewindespindel ausgebildet und umfaßt ein Mantelrohr mit einem Innengewinde und mindestens eine Spindelstange, die in das Innengewinde des Mantelrohrs eingeschraubt ist. An dem freien Ende der Spindelstange und an dem gegenüberliegenden freien Ende der Tragstange ist jeweils eine Stützplatte angeordnet, die einerseits gegen den Boden und andererseits gegen die Decke eines Raumes anlegbar sind. Diese als Spreizspindel ausgebildeten Tragstangen können an beliebigen Orten des Raumes unabhängig von der Deckenhöhe befestigt werden. Zur Anpassung des Regalsystems an unterschiedliche Raumhöhen sind lediglich unterschiedlich lange Mantelrohre zu verwenden.In addition to conventional fastening methods for fastening the support rods (e.g. screwing to the wall, floor or ceiling of a room) becomes an advantageous Easy to install and rebuild clamping system proposed. This is the support rod is designed as a threaded spindle and comprises a tubular casing with a Internal thread and at least one spindle rod that fits into the internal thread of the Jacket tube is screwed. At the free end of the spindle rod and at the a support plate is arranged opposite the free end of the support rod, on the one hand against the floor and on the other hand against the ceiling of a room can be created. These support rods, designed as expansion spindles, can be attached to any Locations of the room can be fixed regardless of the ceiling height. For Adaptation of the shelving system to different room heights are only different to use long jacket pipes.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung bestehen alle Elemente der Tragstange aus rostfreiem Stahl. Das Innengewinde wird von einer in das Mantelrohr eingesteckten Gewindebuchse gebildet. Diese Gewindebuchse weist an ihrem Außenumfang eine radiale Schulter auf, gegen die die ringförmige Stirnfläche des Mantelrohrs anliegt. In der Wandung der Gewindebuchse kann eine kleine radiale Gewindebohrung angeordnet sein, in die eine Madenschraube zur Fixierung der in die Gewindebuchse einschraubten Spindelstange einschraubbar ist.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, all elements of the Stainless steel support bar. The internal thread is in the casing tube inserted threaded bush formed. This threaded bush points at your Outer circumference on a radial shoulder against which the annular end face of the Jacket tube is applied. A small radial can be in the wall of the threaded bush Threaded bore can be arranged in which a grub screw for fixing the in the threaded bush screwed screw rod is screwed.

Das in dem Mantelrohr befindliche Ende der Spindelstange sollte mit einer Führungsscheibe versehen sein, die im wesentlichen spielfrei im Mantelrohr geführt ist. Auf diese Weise ist die Spindelstange sowohl im Bereich des Innengewindes als auch im Bereich der Führungsscheibe in radialer Richtung innerhalb des Mantelrohrs gehalten und kann zuverlässig Querkräfte oder Momente aufnehmen.The end of the spindle rod located in the casing tube should be fitted with a guide washer be provided, which is guided essentially free of play in the casing tube.
