Abstract

The base-plate (2) for the corner upright (1) of a shelving unit protrudes on all sides of the upright, (1) and is flexibly held in position. The protruding edge of the base plate (2) has teeth (3) between which are gaps (4). The base plate (2) is fixed to the inside of the upright by means of an upward-pointing, flexible strip (5). Between the strip (5) and the base plate (2) is a narrow joining piece (6) with slits (7) along the edge of the curved part of the base-plate (2) leading to the strip (5).

Shelf corner column with base plate

The invention relates to a corner module on a shelf arranged footplate.

Eb is known to assign base plates to shelf columns to be able to transfer the shelf information to the largest possible surface area. But that's where the focus lies the column, for example with LJinkel-Steg-Rinnen vein Some hollow profiles, outside the center, result in an uneven load distribution, or from zones that are excessive Wing loads can result.

This disadvantage is exacerbated, ωεππ the possibility a gapless row of shelves is required and / or if it should be possible, the columns for Increasing the buckling strength optionally from several, for example, from two angle profile rods to form a column T-shaped cross-section to be joined together without play, there so far, the footplates have to be flush with the outside of the pillar.

The object of the invention is now with the simplest means To create opportunities for a much more even load distribution than before without the permissible surface area

pressure to exceed. But the aforementioned also apply Designs and arrangements are possible.

The solution to this task is characterized by the following features:

a) the footplate is on all sides over the SMuIe arranged above,

b) the footplate is opposite the outside of a column inwardly held in an elastically flexible manner at least around the footplate overhang,

c) in the edge part of the footplate protruding beyond the second outer side of the column, they are spaced one behind the other arranged teeth provided, between bleach at least equally sized tooth gaps are arranged

and

d) the tooth base is offset inwardly by half the tooth height in relation to the second outer side of the column arranged.

These measures allow the footplate to also extend over the outer sides of the corner pillar to be arranged above, from which the desired more even load distribution on the ground results than before, without the possibility of a seamless row of shelves and / or the optional Joining together of shelf units having base plates

130019/0538

Exclude columns to a column of greater strength.

In order to be able to arrange a shelf with pillars as described above on a liJand without play, it is advantageous to if the footplate edge part is held flexibly inwards, that is arranged in the same direction as the shelf longitudinal side is.

To achieve the lowest possible surface pressure It is advantageous if the tooth height is greater, in particular twice as large as the land thickness of the web grooves or tubular profile rods existing column.

In addition, larger teeth are auci. easier to manufacture than small teeth, which are preferably created by cutting out.

The fastening of the base plate, especially on the one facing the long side of the shelf rectified column inner side is preferably carried out by means of one of the footplate above bracing, flexible tab.

A preferred embodiment which is particularly advantageous in terms of production engineering is characterized by one on the base plate trimmed, angled flap between which and the footplate a narrow web with opposite the flap lower flexural strength is arranged, in particular

130019/0538

special also in the footplate in the direction of the long sides of the web and over the bending edge of the Abuiinklung extending slots are arranged.

To further simplify the production and in particular the storage, an advantageous one is characterized Further development through a polygonal, in particular rectangular base plate, which is in two opposite Edge parts having toothings, furniture a tooth of the an edge part faces an at least equally large tooth gap in the opposite edge part.

A variant that may be preferred is characterized by that in two, converging with each other and in each case protruding on the outside of the column, the base plate edge parts Toothings are arranged with the assigned column outside partially protruding teeth.

Such a base plate could be rigidly connected to the column in a simple manner, for example by welding. However, a complete arrangement of this would then be required Shelf having base plates, for example on a UJand, is no longer possible.

It is also advantageous if the teeth and, accordingly, the tooth gap have the same profile, in particular trapezoidal Have profiles, in particular the corners are more or less rounded.

An embodiment of the invention is in the drawings and is described in more detail below.

Show it:

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of part of a shelf corner column with a base plate,

Fig. 2 also seen from above, 3 shows a sheet metal blank of the footplate,

Fig. 1-6 possible arrangements of such corner modules to each other, each seen from above.

In this shelf corner module 1, which has an unequal angle profile, is a cut out of sheet metal, in essentially rectangular base plate 2 attached so that it protrudes on all sides laterally over the column.

Trapezoidal teeth 3 are cut into the short edge parts of the foot plates, between which a tooth gap U corresponding to the teeth 3 is arranged. The tooth base is offset inwards by half the height of the tooth. The teeth 3 and the tooth gaps congruent with the latter have the same pitches. Furthermore, the teeth 3 of the one side of the footplate face tooth gaps k in the opposite side of the footplate. The tooth height corresponds approximately to twice the wall thickness of column 1. Depending on requirements, the tooth height can also be selected larger.

To attach the footplate 2 to the column 1 is on the Base plate one by screws, rivets or welding on long leg of the column 1 attached tab 5, the upper an angled, narrow, flexible web 6 is connected to the base plate 2.

In order to obtain the greatest possible elastic resilience of the web 6, are in the footplate 2 in the direction Slits 7 extending over the long sides of the web and extending beyond the bending edge are arranged.

In the footplate 2 there is also a hole 8 for receiving one Baden anchor not shown provided.

Figure <* indicates. Seamless arrangement of two similar columns side by side, wherein the teeth of the one base plate 2 engage in the tooth gaps of the adjacent U footplate 2 3.

In Fig. 5 are zuiei columns 1 with their long profile legs epielloB shown lying next to one another, with the foot plates 2 have been pushed back inward by the original overhang 9.

FIG. 6 shows a combination of the two column arrangements shown in FIGS. U + 5.

130019/0538

Such a design and arrangement is of course also with isosceles, web-shaped, channel-shaped or hollow profiled shelf columns possible.

Under certain circumstances, it could also be sufficient to hold the base plate on the column so that it can be used with both outer sides of the column can then be pushed back flush.

The term Regal-EcksMule is to be understood comprehensively as that also shelf columns generally fall under it. The term shelf corner column is therefore used throughout the text of claims and description can be replaced by the term shelf column.

All new ones disclosed in the description and / or drawing Individual and combination features are considered essential to the invention viewed.
