Description

The invention relates to a traverse for a shelving system. The invention also relates to a shelving system with such a cross member. The invention also relates to a method for assembling a traverse.

Shelf systems are used, for example, to store and / or present goods. The shelf systems usually have a plurality of shelf supports to which at least one or more product carriers for storing goods are attached. The goods carriers are designed as a shelf, for example.

One object of the invention is to further develop previous concepts of shelving systems, in particular in order to improve their functionality and / or to facilitate assembly and / or to simplify components of the shelving system in terms of design and / or manufacturing technology.

The object is achieved with a traverse which has the features of claim 1. Furthermore, the object is achieved with a shelving system which has the features of claim 17. The object is also achieved with a shelving system which has the features of claim 18. In addition, an assembly method with the features of claim 20 is proposed to solve the problem.

Advantageous embodiments and / or refinements and / or aspects of the invention emerge from the subclaims, the following description and the figures.

A basic traverse for a shelving system comprises an elongated body. In particular, the base body has an extension in the direction of its longitudinal axis which is greater than its extension transversely thereto. For example, the base body is rod-shaped or rod-shaped or bar-shaped.

In one embodiment, the traverse comprises a hinge section which is set up to be articulated to a mating section, for example a shelf support, in order to pivot the traverse about a pivot axis into a holding position with respect to the shelf support. As a result, the traverse enables a connection or attachment, for example, to a shelf support or another third-party object in a desired position using a pivoting movement.

In order to hold the traverse relative to the shelf support in the holding position, in a further embodiment the traverse comprises a stop which is set up to act against a counter-stop, for example of the shelf support. A further measure is taken by the stop to achieve a fastening of the cross member to the shelf support or the third item in a desired position via a pivoting movement of the cross member. In addition, the stop helps to achieve a permanently stable connection of the cross member to the shelf support or the third-party object, since the interaction of the stop and the counter-stop provides or enables a form-fitting connection.

In a further embodiment, the pivot axis is arranged eccentrically with respect to the center of mass of the traverse, so that in the holding position, due to the weight force acting, the stop presses against the counter-stop in order to secure the traverse against loosening from the holding position. In particular, the pivot axis is arranged eccentrically in at least one spatial direction with respect to the center of mass of the traverse in order to exert a weight-related compressive force via the stop on the counter-stop in the holding position. As a result, a measure is taken to hold the traverse relative to the shelf support or the third-party item in the desired holding position without the need for additional securing means. A loosening of the traverse from the holding position, for example due to the traverse pivoting back, is counteracted in a simple manner.

In particular, it is provided that, viewed in the cross section of the base body, the stop is spatially spaced from the joint section. In particular, it is also provided that, viewed in the cross section of the base body, the base body is arranged between the stop and the joint section. Such an arrangement results in favorable force relationships in the installed state of the traverse in order to hold the traverse in the holding position due to the acting weight.

It is advisable that the joint section and the stop are formed together on a flange. It is also advisable that the flange and the elongated base body of the cross member are separate components which are connected to one another, for example, are connected by welding. These measures make it easier to manufacture the traverse. For example, the flange and / or the base body is a metal part and in particular has metal or consists of metal. For example, the flange consists of aluminum or stainless steel or has such a material. A compact design in the axial direction of the base body can be implemented if according to one embodiment, the flange is plate-shaped.

One possible embodiment of the traverse is that the base body has a longitudinal extension extending in the direction of the pivot axis. In particular, the flange is also arranged on the base body. In particular, the flange also has a flange side and / or flange surface facing the shelf support, which extends transversely to the longitudinal extension of the base body. For example, the flange side extends orthogonally or essentially orthogonally to the longitudinal extent of the base body.

According to one embodiment, the hinge section comprises a concave surface which is designed to form a swivel joint with a corresponding surface of the shelf support. As a result, a measure is taken in order to implement the desired pivot connection between the cross member and the shelf support in a simple manner.

For example, it is provided that the joint section has or forms a passage in the direction of the pivot axis. For example, the passage has an opening on the circumferential side in order to introduce a pin element or a pin section of the shelf support via the opening into the passage with the formation of the swivel joint. The hinge section can therefore be open to the outside and for example thereby encompass the pin element or the pin section at least partially in order to enable the hinge section to be placed on the pin element or the pin section while forming the swivel joint. These measures are aimed at making it easier to mount the traverse on the shelf support.

In particular, the joint section is formed by a recess on an edge or edge area of the flange. The edge or edge area can be a lower edge or edge area of the flange. The designation "lower" refers to the position of the flange or the recess in the installed state of the cross member on the shelf support of a shelf system.

According to a further embodiment, the stop is formed on a length section and / or surface section which has a concave section or is concave in order to receive therein a pin element or a pin section of the shelf support. This makes it easier to hold the cross member in the holding position with respect to the shelf support, that is to say in a desired rotational position. In addition, due to the concave design, any movement of the cross member in the radial direction with respect to the pivot axis can be limited to a predetermined and tolerable movement, for example to counteract a divergence of the articulated connection.

A further possible embodiment consists in that an inlet section adjoins the concave subsection at least on one side. In particular, the inlet section is set up to guide the pin element or the pin section preferably on a predetermined path of movement when the cross member is pivoted about the pivot axis into the holding position. This makes it easier to bring the stop together with the counter stop in the course of a pivoting process about the pivot axis when the cross member is mounted on the shelf support.

One possible embodiment of the traverse is that the concave surface of the joint section and the concave section for the stop are each delimited by a chord. In particular, it is provided that the chords are arranged transversely to one another, in particular orthogonally or essentially orthogonally to one another. In particular, it is also provided that the concave surface and the concave section each at least partially run around a center point. In particular, it is further provided that the base body has a central axis which extends in the longitudinal direction of the cross member and which is arranged at a distance from an imaginary connecting line between the centers. The central axis can be the geometric central axis. It can also be the central axis in terms of mass. These measures are aimed at designing the traverse as possible in such a way that the traverse can be mounted on the shelf support by executing a pivoting movement about the pivot axis, so that the stop hits the counter stop when a desired rotational position, i.e. the Holding position, is reached, and that due to the weight of the traverse itself, a compressive force is exerted on the counter-stop via the stop in order to hold the traverse on the shelf support in the holding position.

In addition, the traverse can have at least one through opening for receiving a securing element, for example in order to secure the traverse relative to the shelf support against rotation about the pivot axis, in particular to additionally secure it in the holding position. The through opening can be provided on the flange, for example in order to be able to insert the securing element through the flange side of the flange facing the shelf support in this way. For example, the securing element is designed as a securing pin.

Another possible embodiment consists in that the traverse has a further hinge section which is set up to be hinged to a mating section of a further shelf support. The further joint section can be formed on a further flange. In this case, it can be provided that the flange and the further flange are arranged at opposite longitudinal ends or end regions of the base body. As a result, the traverse can be used as a cross connector or cross strut between two shelf supports, for example in order to exercise a support function and / or reinforcement function for the shelf system.

In addition or as an alternative, the traverse is set up to attach at least one product carrier to it. In this respect, the traverse can be used to attach at least one product carrier. In the present description, the term “goods carrier” is to be understood in particular as a device which serves to hold goods. For example, the goods carrier is a container, for example in order to be able to hold pourable goods therein. The goods carrier can also be a rod element in order to hang goods thereon directly or via packaging.

For example, the base body of the traverse is set up so that at least one product carrier can be held or attached to it. For example, the base body is set up to be used to hang at least one product carrier. For this purpose, the at least one product carrier can be designed as a hanging container or hanging basket. The at least one product carrier can also be designed as a hanging rod.

For example, the base body has an angular, in particular square or rectangular, cross section. In the case of a suspended goods carrier, the at least one goods carrier can thereby be secured against twisting about the longitudinal axis of the base body, for example in that the goods carrier is supported with a material section against one side of the angular cross section of the base body.

According to one aspect of the invention, a shelf system for storing and / or presenting goods is also provided. The shelving system comprises at least one shelf support. The shelf support can be an elongated vertical support. For example, the vertical support has a foot part via which the shelf support can be set up on a base. In addition or as an alternative, the shelf support has a flange section via which the shelf support can be attached to a third object, for example on a transverse side. The shelving system also includes a traverse. The traverse has, for example, an elongated base body, a hinge section and a stop, the traverse being pivoted about a pivot axis on the at least one shelf support via the hinge section and pivoted about the pivot axis into a holding position in which the stop against a counterstop of the at least a shelf support is brought into plant. The pivot axis is arranged eccentrically with respect to the center of mass of the crossbeam, so that, due to the weight force acting, the stop presses against the counter-stop in order to secure the crossbeam against being released from the holding position.

According to a further aspect of the invention, a shelving system for storing and / or presenting goods is provided. The shelf system comprises at least one shelf support, in particular the shelf support described above, a cross member and at least one goods carrier held and / or fastened to the cross member. The traverse comprises an elongated base body, a hinge section and a stop, the traverse being pivoted about a pivot axis on the at least one shelf support via the hinge section and being pivoted about the pivot axis into a holding position in which the stop against a counter stop of the at least one Shelf support is brought into contact. The pivot axis is arranged eccentrically with respect to the common center of mass of the traverse and the at least one goods carrier, so that due to the weight force acting, the stop presses against the counter-stop in order to secure the traverse from loosening from the holding position.

With regard to possible advantages and positive effects in the case of the proposed shelving systems, in particular with regard to the way in which the crossbeam is installed, reference is made to the above statements on the crossbeam. The crossbeam used in connection with the shelf systems can in principle be an embodiment and / or configuration of the crossbeam described above.

For example, in the case of the shelf systems, the stop is spatially spaced from the hinge section and is in particular arranged above the hinge section. For example, the hinge section includes a concave surface which forms a swivel joint with a corresponding surface of the at least one shelf support. For example, the corresponding surface of the at least one shelf support is formed on the outer circumference of a pin element. For example, the hinge section is placed on the pin element in the radial direction with respect to the pin element. For example, that protrudes Pin element of the at least one shelf support to the outside. For example, the pin element is detachably arranged on the shelf support.

For example, the stop is formed on a concave surface and the counter-stop is formed by a section of the outer circumference of a further pin element of the at least one shelf support. For example, the further pin element is arranged at a distance above the pin element on the shelf support. For example, the pin element and the further pin element are arranged one behind the other in a row, for example the one running vertically.

For example, at least one hook element is assigned to the at least one product carrier, via which the at least one product carrier is suspended from the base body of the cross member. For example, the at least one product carrier is held exclusively on the cross member.

1. i) Einhängen der Traverse an der Regalstütze, indem der Gelenkabschnitt der Traverse gegen einen Gegenabschnitt der Regalstütze um eine Schwenkachse verschwenkbar in Wirkposition gebracht wird;
2. ii) Verschwenken der Traverse um die Schwenkachse in eine Halteposition, in welcher der Anschlag der Traverse gegen einen Gegenanschlag der Regalstütze in Anlage gebracht ist, wobei in der Halteposition die Schwenkachse exzentrisch bezüglich des Massemittelpunktes der Traverse vorliegt, sodass aufgrund wirkender Gewichtskraft der Anschlag gegen den Gegenanschlag drückt und dadurch die Traverse gegen ein Lösen aus der Halteposition gesichert ist.

According to a further aspect of the invention, a method for mounting a traverse, in particular the traverse described above, on a shelf support is proposed. For example, the shelf support is the shelf support described above. The procedure consists of the following steps:

1. i) hanging the cross-member on the shelf support by bringing the articulated section of the cross-member into the operative position against a mating section of the shelf support so that it can pivot about a pivot axis;
2. ii) Pivoting the traverse about the pivot axis into a holding position in which the stop of the traverse is brought into contact with a counter stop of the shelf support, in the holding position the pivot axis is eccentric with respect to the center of mass of the traverse, so that the stop against the due to the acting weight Presses counter-stop and thereby the cross-member is secured against loosening from the holding position.

The proposed method facilitates the assembly of a shelving system. The traverse can be easily mounted on the shelf support by swiveling it into the holding position. Due to the weight of the traverse, the traverse remains in the holding position and is secured against turning back.

According to a further development of the method, in a further step, a goods carrier is suspended from the cross member in such a way that the weight of the goods carrier exerts an additional compressive force on the counter-stop via the stop.

1 shows a detail of a possible embodiment of a shelving system 100 , which is used, for example, to store and / or represent goods. The shelving system 100 is suitable to be used as a sales shelf and / or shop shelf. The shelving system preferably has 100 several shelf supports 20th , 20.1 , 20.1 ' on which, for example, as a carrier for a shelf 120 serve and are preferably arranged in pairs opposite one another (one associated fourth shelf support is in the 1 not shown). The shelf supports are preferred 20th , 20.1 , 20.1 ' each designed as a vertical support.

The shelf supports 20th , 20.1 , 20.1 ' comprise an elongated body 21st , which is made, for example, from an extruded metal profile. On the main body 21st can be a terminating part at the end 27 be arranged, which in the 1 for example with the shelf support 20.1 ' is visible. The final part 27 can be an upper end part, for example to support a (in the 1 not shown) ceiling element and / or to be used for fastening against a ceiling surface or a ceiling element. The final part 27 can also be used as a foot part, for example to support the associated shelf support 20.1 ' set up on a surface, in particular to be attached to it.

For example, the shelf supports 20th , 20.1 , 20.1 ' at least one fastening opening 28 on, which for example on a longitudinal surface side of the base body 21st is trained. The at least one fastening opening 28 can be used to support the associated shelf support 20.1 to be fastened via the one longitudinal surface side against a side wall or some other third-party object, for example using a fastening element.

The shelf supports preferably have 20th , 20.1 , 20.1 ' elongated holes arranged one behind the other in the direction of their respective longitudinal extent 29 on, which can each be designed as a bayonet hole. In the present description, the term “bayonet hole” is an elongated hole 29.1 to understand which in the area of its one longitudinal end has a larger dimensioned passage than in the area of its other longitudinal end. There is a bayonet cam through the larger passage 30th in the elongated hole 29.1 insertable and by moving in the direction of the smaller dimensioned longitudinal end of the elongated hole 29.1 is a bayonet connection between the elongated hole 29.1 and the bayonet nock 30th to realize in which the bayonet cam 30th in the axial direction against being pulled out of the elongated hole 29.1 is secured.

The elongated holes 29 can be designed to run obliquely, with the larger dimensioned longitudinal end in each case being above the smaller dimensioned longitudinal end. The elongated holes are preferred 29 arranged one behind the other in a row, in particular arranged in alignment with one another. The elongated holes are preferred 29 arranged in the same orientation to one another. Through the elongated holes 29 and the bayonet cam that can be accommodated in it 30th is a fastening of components of the shelving system 100 and / or other accessories for the shelving system. For example, the shelf can be attached to it 120 by hanging on the bayonet cam 30th the respective shelf support 20th , 20.1 , 20.1 ' be attached.

With the shelving system 100 can also be a traverse 40 be provided. The traverse 40 has an elongated body 41 and is for example against two of the opposing shelf supports 20th , 20.1 , 20.1 ' , especially between the shelf support 20th and the opposite one (in the 1 non-visible) shelf support attached, in particular releasably attached. The traverse 40 can be used as a cross brace between the shelf support 20th and the (in the 1 not shown) serve opposite shelf support, and in this way a reinforcement function with respect to the shelving system 100 exercise. Additionally or alternatively, the traverse 40 can also be used to attach one or more product carriers 70 , 70.1 , 70.2 to fasten, especially to hang up. In the 1 are the goods carriers provided there 70 , 70.1 , 70.2 for example as a hanging container 80 educated.

The traverse 40 is designed in such a way that simple assembly is favored. The way of possible assembly of the truss 40 on the shelving system 100 is an example based on the shelf support 20th in 2A , 2 B and 2C shown. 3 shows the traverse 40 in a cross-sectional view.

As in particular from the 2a and 3 can be seen, points the traverse 40 a hinge portion 42 on. The hinge section 42 is preferably set up on a mating section 22nd the shelf support 20th to be hinged to the traverse 40 around a pivot axis 44 in a holding position H opposite the shelf support 20th to pan ( 2c ). As in particular also from the 2a and 3 can be seen, points the traverse 40 prefers a stop 43 on. The attack 43 is preferably set up against a counter stop 23 the shelf support 20th to act to the traverse 40 opposite the shelf support 20th in the holding position H to keep ( 2C ).

The pivot axis is preferred 44 eccentric with respect to the center of mass of the traverse 40 arranged so that in the holding position H the stop due to the acting weight 43 against the counter stop 23 presses. As a result, there is a pivoting back about the pivot axis 44 counteracted and thus the traverse 40 against loosening from the holding position H secured.

The traverse 40 can on the shelf support 20th can be mounted as follows: The Joint section 42 the traverse 40 against the opposite section 22nd the shelf support 20th brought into contact and thus one around the pivot axis 44 rotatable swivel joint 110 educated ( 2a and 2 B) . Then the traverse 40 relative to the shelf support 20th around the pivot axis 44 pivoted until the stop 43 against the counter stop 22nd the shelf support 20th in the holding position H arrives ( 2 B and 2C ). Due to the eccentric arrangement of the center of mass of the traverse 40 , i.e. by the arrangement of the center of mass of the traverse 40 outside the pivot axis 44 , presses the crossbeam 40 due to their own weight over the stop 43 against the counter stop 23 the shelf support 20th and thus holds the traverse 40 in the holding position H .

This inward curvature forms with a corresponding surface 24 the shelf support 20th the swivel joint 110 . At the shelf support 20th can be the corresponding area 24 on a peripheral portion of a pin element 25th be trained. The tenon element 25th can on the shelf support 20th be well arranged to the outside. For example, it is the pin element 25th around one of the bayonet cams 30th , which are related to the 1 are already described.

For example, the hinge section 42 the traverse 40 through a passage 48 in the direction of the pivot axis 44 educated. The passage preferably has an opening on the circumferential side 49 on to about the opening 49 in the passage 48 the spigot element 25th the shelf support 20th with formation of the swivel joint 110 to introduce ( 2A , 2 B and 3 ). The pin element preferably has 25th a circumferential recess 25.1 . The depression is preferred 25.1 dimensioned in terms of their width such that it is in the holding position H the hinge section 42 is received and in this way one in the axial direction with respect to the pin element 25th acting form fit is generated.

The stop is preferred 43 on a length section 50 educated. The length segment 50 can have a concave section 51 have to have a shelf support therein 20th associated pin element 26th record. For example, it is the pin element 26th around one of the bayonet cams 30th , which are related to the 1 are already described. With the pin element 26th it can be an opposite of the pin element 25th act identical component. With the pin element 26th For example, the outer circumference is used to make the counter stop 23 to build.

The concave section preferably adjoins 51 an inlet section on both opposite sides 52 , 53 on, which to each other with the formation of an outwardly increasing opening angle α extend. As a result, it is when the traverse is pivoted 40 around the pivot axis 44 allows the tenon element 26th to lead on a predetermined trajectory to the desired system of the stop 43 the traverse 40 against the counter stop 23 the shelf support 20th to reach.

The concave surfaces are preferred 47 of the joint section 42 and the concave section 51 for the stop 43 each by a tendon 54 or. 55 limited. The tendons are preferred 54 , 55 across each other. For example are the tendons 54 , 55 arranged orthogonally or substantially orthogonally to one another. The concave surfaces preferably run 47 and the concave section 51 each around a center point 56 or. 57 . The base body preferably has 41 one in the longitudinal direction of the traverse 40 extending central axis 58 on which at a distance from an imaginary connecting line 59 between the centers 56 , 57 is arranged. In particular, this results in the desired eccentricity with respect to the center of mass of the traverse 44 reached. At the central axis 58 it is in particular a geometric central axis of the base body 41 based on its cross-section.

The base body is preferred 41 designed as a rod element or bar element. The base body preferably has 41 a polygonal cross-section, for example a square or rectangular cross-section. The base body is preferred 41 rectangular in cross-section, the narrow sides of the base body seen in cross-section 41 on the one hand the joint section 42 and on the other hand the attack 43 facing so that in the holding position H on the shelf support 20th the traverse 40 with one of the narrow sides facing upwards and the other narrow side facing downwards ( 2C and 3 ).
