Abstract

The present invention relates to a device for secure storing of items such as car wheels or bicycles in storage areas with public access.The present invention relates to a device for secure storage of items such as car wheels or bicycles in storage areas with public access.

Description

Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a device for secure storing of items such as car wheels or bicycles in storage areas with public access.
Background
From Norwegian patent 330432 there is known a device for securing items to be stored in areas of public access, such as shared garages. The device includes two legs which are fastened to a wall. A crossbeam is mounted between the protruding ends of the legs and locked to the legs. The device may hold items mounted onto the legs, such as car wheels or bicycles, in a secure way. Other items may be kept in the space between the legs.
US patent 3975107 describes a method for fastening bolts perpendicular to a metal plate. A sharp tip 18 is arranged centrally at the end of the bolt. When stamped against the plate, the bolt will form a corresponding recess 19 in the plate. The bolt may subsequently be welded to the plate along its circumference. Said tip will engage the recess in the plate and prevent the bolt from being displaced along the plate during the welding.
Summary of the Invention
It is an object of the present invention to produce a device of the above-mentioned type which is simple to manufacture.
This is achieved with a device as defined in the appended claims.
In particular the invention relates to a device for securing items to a flat support, including two legs each consisting of a tubular leg element which is square in cross section and a mounting plate, wherein the leg elements are mounted perpendicular on the mounting plate in a first end and includes openings in the other end, the legs being adapted to be mounted on the flat surface with a certain distance, and wherein the openings are adapted to engage a crossbeam connecting the legs, wherein each leg element includes tabs in said first end, the mounting plate including slots dimensioned to engage the tabs, and wherein the leg elements are welded to the mounting plates.
By this arrangement the mounting plate is locked to the leg element avoiding internal displacement during the welding process. Thus, a more accurate and correct joining of the leg element to the mounting plate is achieved.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the openings are rectangular and arranged on opposite surfaces of the leg element, and wherein the internal dimension of the opening in the leg element corresponds to the external dimension of the crossbeam.
The crossbeam may then slide into the openings and fit accurately.
According to yet a preferred embodiment, the second opening is designed to expose the whole cross section of the leg element, the dimension of the opening being defined by the internal surfaces of the leg element on two opposite sides, and by flanges on the other two opposite sides.
According to still another preferred embodiment, the crossbeam is rectangular and equipped with a stopper in one end, wherein the dimension and shape of the stopper correspond to an area of the leg element being exposed by the second opening.
This provides for an easy mounting of the crossbeam and the end of the stopper fitting snugly against the end of the leg.
According to yet another embodiment, the leg element includes locking holes arranged opposing each other near said openings and on adjacent sides of the leg component, the crossbeam including corresponding locking holes in each end thereof.
Padlocks may be mounted in one or both ends of the crossbeam, and by this arrangement the locking pins of the padlocks will not be exposed, which makes it difficult to cut the locking pins.
Brief Description of the Drawings
The invention will now be described in detail in reference to the appended drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the invention,
Fig. 2a)-f) are detailed views of the components forming the legs shown in Fig. 1, and
Fig. 3a)-d) are detailed views of a crossbeam included in the device shown in Fig. 1.
Detailed Description
Fig. 1 shows the invention in perspective. As seen, the invention includes two legs 1 adapted to be mounted perpendicularly onto a surface, such as a wall, and a crossbeam 2 joining the two legs 1. The crossbeam 2 may be locked to the legs 1 with padlocks (not shown) thus securing items located on the legs from being stolen. Fastening holes 21 may be located on the legs 1 for mounting hooks, knobs, etc. Then, items may be hung on the outside of the legs, even though they then will not be held securely locked.
Each leg includes a mounting plate and a leg element which is welded to the mounting plate. Fig. 2a) shows the leg element 11 in side view. The leg element 11 is made from a rectangular metal profile (Fig. 2c)), which in one end is shaped with tabs 12 adapted to fit into corresponding slots 19 in the mounting plate 16 (Fig. 2f)). With the tabs inserted into the slots, the two parts may be welded together, preferably from the back side of the mounting plate, optionally also from the front side around the circumference of the leg element where it abuts the mounting plate. The leg element will be locked to the mounting plate during the welding operation. Without such tabs and slots, i.e. if the leg element is mounted abutting the mounting plate, the leg element will easily shift relative the mounting plate when exposed to the heat from the welding. This is avoided in the present embodiment with tabs and slots.
Each leg element is equipped with opposing and rectangular openings 13 and 14 in its other end. The openings are dimensioned corresponding to the internal dimension of the leg element. However, the second opening 14 is formed by removing metal from the leg element exposing the whole cross section of the leg element, and the size of the opening is then defined by the internal walls in the leg element and flanges 20 on each side of the opening. The openings are adapted to accept the crossbeam 11. In the other end of the leg element there are also located two opposing holes 15 for accepting a locking bolt. The holes 15 are arranged perpendicular to the openings 13, 14.
Fig. 2f) shows that the mounting plate 16 may be shaped as a cross (even though other designs are possible), and is equipped with a central threaded hole 18 and four peripheral holes 17. The holes are intended for mounting the mounting plate onto the support.
Fig. 3a) shows the crossbeam 2 in side view. The crossbeam is a rectangular tube (Fig. 3c)) dimensioned to fit the openings 13, 14 in the leg elements 11. In one end of the crossbeam 2 there is a stopper 23 in the form of a plate which is welded to the beam, or fastened in another way. Further, there are arranged holes 22 in each end of the crossbeam for locking bolts.
The invention is mounted onto the support by first using the crossbeam 2 as a template for locating the placement of the holes to be drilled in the support for the centre bolts. This is done by placing the crossbeam on the support and aligning it, preferably by using a spirit level. The holes 22 in the crossbeam may be used as guidelines for where the first two holes should be drilled.
After drilling the holes in the proper diameter, the centre bolts (expansion bolts) are hammered into each hole. Then, the nut is used to expand the bolt and lock it into the hole. The nut is removed and the mounting plates 16 with the perpendicular legs 11 screwed onto the centre bolts. The last tightening of the mounting plates may be done by placing the crossbeam 2 through openings in the ends of the legs and using the beam as a lever.
When this is finished, the perpendicular legs 1 are additionally secured to the support by drilling additional holes through the remaining holes 17 in the mounting plate 16 as necessary. Then, an additional set of bolts are hammered into the newly drilled holes and tightened.
The invention is now ready for use, and a set of wheels or a bicycle may be placed on the perpendicular legs 1. The crossbeam 2 is then entered through the openings in the legs and locked with a padlock. The stopper 23 at the end of the crossbeam will bear against the outer surface of one of the legs 1. Due to the recess around the largest opening 14, the stopper will fit in smoothly in the surface of the leg 1. The holes 22 will match the holes 15 at the ends of the legs 1 (if the crossbeam is entered the correct way), and padlocks may be entered through the holes in one or both ends of the crossbeam for locking the device.
As mentioned, the mounting plate 16 is screwed onto a centre bolt. There are several reasons for this, one of these is to fasten the mounting plate 16 securely to the support, and another reason is that the centre bolt makes it very difficult for someone to loosen the whole device and steal the secured items. Even if the other bolts are removed, the centre bolts are still inaccessible as they are located inside the perpendicular legs 1. As long as the crossbeam is present, the legs cannot be turned and screwed from the centre bolts.
The invention may be mounted horizontally or vertically on any support, such as concrete, brick, a wooden wall, gypsum or the like.
