Definitions

  • a bracket assembly is known from Australian Specification No. 479 592 (Granston) comprising a closed section tubular upright with a row of elongated slots in its front wall and bracket locating means in its rear wall facing the slots to receive and laterally locate the free end of a bracket member when fitted in the upright, the bracket member having at least one downwardly projecting tongue, the or each of which has an undercut engageable with the wall portion of the upright adjacent the lower end of a respective one of the slots whereby the free end face of the or each tongue abuts the inner surface of the rear wall of the upright.
  • the present invention meets the above objective and overcomes the problems of the prior art by providing a bracket assembly in which the rear wall of a closed section tubular upright is deformed to provide bracket locating means therein in the form of a continuous internal indentation extending longitudinally of the upright.
  • the indentation is a channel whose side walls are outwardly curved, this novel shape having the advantage that the curved side walls of the channel tend to automatically guide the tongue ends into the indentation on insertion of the bracket member into the upright.
  • the upright is covered on its two unslotted sides by respective cladding panels of sheet metal, each of the panels being provided along its longitudinal edges with inwardly directed flanges which are engaged by outwardly extending lugs formed at each end of each spring clip to retain the panels in position.
  • tubular upright used herein is intended to denote not only a single tubular member of circular or substantially rectangular cross-section but also an assembly of two or more of such members jointed together along their longitudinal walls.
  • a bracket member 6' of substantially elongate construction and having a thickness substantially corresponding to the width of the slots 3' is formed at one end with three projecting tongues 7' which respectively engage three adjacent slots 3' in the upright 1' and by means of which the bracket member 6' is releasably anchored in the upright 1' to project in cantilever fashion from the slotted wall 2' thereof.
  • the bracket member 6' has a rectangular shape substantially along half its length 8', whereafter the bottom edge flares outwardly at 9' at an angle of 30° to the horizontal to form with the straight upper edge 10' of the bracket member 6' a widened portion which terminates in an anchoring portion 11' from the end face of which the three tongues 7' project.
  • Each tongue 7' is provided in its lower edge 13', at the juncture with the adjacent end face of the anchoring portion 11', with an undercut 16' which is in the form of a rectangular recess the width of which corresponds substantially to the thickness of the slotted wall 2' of the upright 1' and which receives the edge portion of the lower end of the respective slot 3' engaged by the tongue 7'.
  • the undercut 16' in the tongue 7' is enlarged by a trapezoidal recess 16", which may be trapezoidal as illustrated or semi-circular, formed in the adjacent end face 17' of the anchoring portion 11, the width of said recess being slightly smaller than the width of the recess in the tongue 7.
  • bracket member 6' is formed with three projecting tongues 7' it will be appreciated that more than three such vertically aligned tongues may be provided depending solely on the particular application for which the bracket is intended.
  • a "light duty" bracket of narrower width may be formed with only two or even one anchoring tongue 7'.
  • the indentation 5' formed in the rear wall 4' of the upright 1' constitutes, in the assembled condition, a locating means for the free end face 14' of each tongue 7' to prevent lateral movement of the bracket member 6' relative to the upright 1' and thus provide increased rigidity when the bracket assembly is in use.
  • FIG. 3 and 4 utilizes two uprights 1', used in the embodiment of Figures 1 and 2, to form a substantially box- section upright 1" in which the uprights 1' are joined together so as to contact one another along their longitudinal walls 4' provided with the indentations 5'.
  • the two uprights 1' are held together in the juxtaposed position by means of two identical spring clips 22 which engage the pair of uprights 1' from two opposite sides so as substantially to embrace them, and leaving only a comparatively narrow gap 23 substantially corresponding to the width of the slots 3' which gap is defined by outwardly flaring lugs 24, two of which are formed at each end of the two clips 22.
  • the composite upright 1" is, in use, covered on its two unslotted sides by cladding panels 19' of sheet metal which are provided along their longitudinal edges with inwardly directed flanges 20' which are engaged by the lugs 24 of the clips 22 to retain the panels 19' in position.
  • the flanges 20 come close to the longitudinal edges of the slots 3' in the upright 1" and thus laterally bound the adjacent load-supporting portion 8' of the bracket member 6' and provide the datum line 21.
  • the bracket members 6' are constructed and mounted in the upright 1" in a manner similar to that as already described with reference to Figs. 1 and 2.
  • a plate member 26 having the shape of a substantially isosceles triangle is pivotally secured adjacent the apex of the triangle to the widened portion 11" to lie in a first position (solid lines) flat thereon with one equal side of the triangular plate 26 flush with the adjacent oblique edge 9" of the widened portion 11".
  • the base of the triangular plate 26 has three projecting tongues 7' described with reference to Figs. 1 and 2.
