Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a furniture structure and in particular, a shelving structure in which it is possible to continuously and precisely adjust the height of its shelves.
  • Shelving structures of this type are already widely known, in various constructive forms. They are based on the general concept of using uprights or load-bearing side structures, on which are anchored, hooked and / or built into shelves. In order to be able to compose such structures according to the wishes of the user, the anchoring of the shelves to the lateral structures is effected by fixing means which often have a double function: that of supporting the shelf and that of internal connection of the structure ensuring its stiffening.
  • a common characteristic of all these shelving is that the fixing means provided on the shelves cooperate with corresponding fixing means, provided at regular intervals along the uprights; this is why the height adjustment of the shelves is necessarily carried out according to preset positions, which do not always correspond to the wishes of the user.
  • the present invention relates to a shelving structure or, more generally, a shelving structure, which solves these problems and presents, in particular, extremely simple and inexpensive fixing means, which offer inter alia the possibility of adjusting the shelves at any desired height, independent of the prefixed positions of the relative fixing means.
  • a shelving of the type comprising at least two main vertical support uprights and a plurality of shelves supported by brackets attached to the uprights, each console being formed by a lever with two arms, including a first horizontal arm supporting the shelf and a second arm at an angle to the first arm, said second arm carrying two protuberances each supported on one of the opposite vertical sides of the upright, the lower protrusion on the side of the shelf and the upper protrusion on the opposite side (see FR-A-429 919) - by the fact that the second arm is oblique to the first horizontal arm, which is integral with one of the lateral ends of the shelves, and that the two protrusions of each of the second oblique arms are in the shape of a tenon.
  • the shelving consists, in a known manner, of two main uprights 1, provided with base 2 for support ( Figures 1, 2, 4 and 5), or directly fixed to the wall ( Figure 3), possibly joined together by stiffening crosspieces 3, the shelves 4 hanging on these uprights.
  • each shelf is supported by a pair of consoles 5, each of which is formed by a lever with two arms 5a and 5b ( Figure 6).
  • the arm 5a horizontal, has the support function of the shelf 4.
  • the arm 5b oblique, on the contrary has the function of means of attachment to the upright 1.
  • Two pins 6 and 7 are fixed to the arm 5b of the console 5, directed in a direction, essentially perpendicular to the plane of the arm 5b itself, these pins pressing on each side on the upright 1 (as can be clearly seen in the figures 6 to 8). More specifically, the lower post 6 is supported on the upright 1 on the side of the shelf 4, while the post 7 is supported on the upright 1 on the opposite side.
  • the weight of the shelf is sufficient to transmit to the arm 5b a torque moment which results in a pressure of the two studs 6 and 7 on the upright 1.
  • the pins 6 and 7 could be made as illustrated in FIG. 9, with an iron core 8, provided with a coating 9 of hard rubber.
  • the studs can be made completely of iron, possibly with a knurled surface, while the upright can present - all along its profile with which the studs 6 and 7 are in contact - a list of rubber or plastic, smooth or preferably notched.
  • FIG. 7 an additional safety blocking device has been shown diagrammatically to prevent - in the event of an accidental blow, from bottom to top, on the front edge 4a of the shelf - the latter may slide towards the bottom.
  • this blocking device is simply constituted by a friction pad 15, which is pressed against the upright 1 by means of a screw 16 screwed into a threaded hole in the arm 5b.
  • Figures 1 to 3 show the shelving structure with a series of normal shelves
  • Figures 4 and 5 show that the fixing means according to the invention lend themselves to the production of shelves with special functions: thus the shelf 10 has the function of a table, the shelf 11 has the function of a desk, the shelf 12 has the function of a stool, or the shelf 13 has the function of a display stand for exhibitions.
