Definitions
- the present invention relates to shelving units with shelves, and in particular wooden shelving units in which the shelves rest on vertical uprights.
- This type of furniture usually includes vertical uprights connected by crosspieces and forming rigid frames between which the shelves are placed.
- the frames are connected by oblique crosspieces ensuring the lateral rigidity of the assembly.
- the uprights include notches in which are inserted metal tabs forming hooks to cooperate with transverse metal angles reported under the shelves.
- This type of furniture can be made of wood, but requires the use of metal parts such as angles, producing an unattractive effect.
- the shelves are relatively poorly maintained, and can be subjected to translational movements in their transverse or deep direction.
- the rigidity of the assembly is only ensured by the oblique crosspieces connecting the uprights, the shelves not participating in this rigidity.
- Patent FR-A-2 394 272 describes a shelving unit in shelves in which the longitudinal faces opposite the uprights comprise a vertical groove and holes in which penetrate projections formed by the ends of a transverse metal U-shaped profile attached at the end shelves.
- a safety member consisting of an L-shaped wedge, is placed between a longitudinal face of the shelf and the opposite face of the upright, resting by its horizontal branch on the projection.
- the projections entering the holes ensure the vertical and longitudinal retention of the shelves, the safety member preventing lateral translation of the shelves and the withdrawal of the projections outside the holes, withdrawal made possible by the lateral play essential for placing in place.
- This assembly does not ensure effective joining of the assembly because it does not prohibit the rotation of the shelf around the axis formed by the projections, and no jamming is ensured by the safety member. .
- the grooves of the uprights have no function participating in the holding of the shelves.
- US-A-3,056,508 describes a shelving unit in which the shelves are provided at the end of a transverse bar whose ends form projections to rest in metal U-shaped supports attached to the opposite faces of the uprights. Such an assembly does not ensure effective joining, neither prohibiting rotation about the axis formed by the projections, nor the vertical lifting of the shelves.
- Patent FR-A-2142654 describes a piece of furniture obtained by assembling panels of which a dovetail groove slides on an amount of complementary profile.
- the object of the present invention is in particular to propose a new type of shelving which can be made almost entirely of wood, eliminating in particular any bulky metal parts such as the angles or transverse bars at the end of the shelf.
- Another object of the invention is to produce a more rigid assembly by the fact that the shelves participate in the lateral maintenance of the assembly, while however being removable.
- the shelves are locked in all directions of movement, and in particular in their transverse or depth direction, as well as in rotation of the transverse axis.
- the invention proposes a provision according to which the assembly of the uprights and the shelves is achievable despite the possible deformations of these elements, in particular by the fact that the wood works, the possible play between the parts of the assembly can be automatically caught.
- the same assembly means can be used to attach to the uprights other elements such as shelves, pen trays or slides for drawers, by the fact that the rotation lock is sufficient.
- the present invention provides for the use of uprights having two longitudinal faces, that is to say parallel to the longitudinal axis of the shelves, and two transverse faces, that is to say - say parallel to the transverse axis of the shelves; the shelves and uprights are joined together by the following means: a vertical vertical groove on at least one of the longitudinal faces of each upright; longitudinal extensions. at each end of the shelves.
- the vertical grooves of the uprights have a V-shaped profile.
- This profile is particularly suitable for the production of these shelving, because it combines the aesthetic qualities of the uprights thus produced with the functional needs of the grooves. In addition, it ensures close contact, during the jamming of the locking pieces, between the different faces of the shelves and their extensions with the longitudinal and transverse faces of the uprights.
- the length of the extensions is less than half the thickness of the uprights in the longitudinal direction of the shelves; the corner blocking pieces have a thickness substantially equal to the length of the extensions.
- Figures 1 to 4 show an embodiment in which the shelving comprises four vertical uprights 1, 2, 3 and 4, delimiting a rectangular surface admitting a longitudinal axis 1-1.
- Cross members such as cross member 5 respectively connect the uprights 1 and 2, 3 and 4 to form two frames limiting the shelving.
- the uprights 1 and 4 can be connected by oblique crosspieces not shown in the figures, improving in a known manner the rigidity of the shelving.
- the uprights 1 to 4 are of substantially rectangular section, and are practically identical. They each comprise two longitudinal faces 6 and 7, that is to say parallel to the longitudinal axis 1-1 of the shelving, and two transverse faces 8 and 9, that is to say parallel to the transverse axis from the whole.
- the longitudinal faces 7 are arranged towards the inside of the shelving, and the transverse faces 9 also. In this way, the faces 7 of the uprights 1 and 2 are opposite to each other, and the faces 9 of the uprights 1 and 4 are also opposite to each other.
- the uprights 1 to 4 being positioned vertically, the shelves are arranged such as the shelf 10 between the uprights, placed on four tabs 11 attached to the internal transverse faces 9 of the uprights.
- the inner longitudinal faces 7 of the uprights have a vertical vertical groove 12 with a V-profile.
- the shelves 10 have at each end a longitudinal extension, respectively 13 and 14, engaging between the respective uprights 1 and 2. 3 and 4.
- the shelf itself is cut with the wood grain arranged in the longitudinal direction. It may then be preferable to make the extensions 13 and 14 by bringing wooden mattress covers, the wire of which is arranged transversely, at the end of the shelf. This arrangement ensures good hold at the end of the wood of the shelf 10, and prevents its deformation. In addition, the realization of the shelf is thus easier.
- the extensions 13 and 14 have a length 1 less than half the thickness of the uprights taken in the longitudinal direction of the shelves, so that two shelves 10 and 10a can be placed end to end as shown in Figure 2.
- Each of the longitudinal extensions comprises on one of its sides a vertical rib 15 shaped to engage in a vertical groove 12 of the uprights.
- the edge of the shelf 10 forms with the side of the extension 13 a re-entrant dihedral whose angle is the same as that of the face 9 and of the adjacent face of the groove 12 of the upright.
- the opposite side of the extensions is oblique and has a groove 16 opposable to a vertical groove 12 of an upright to define a housing 17 in the form of a corner.
- Wedge-shaped locking pieces 18 are shaped to fit into the housing 17 between the vertical groove 12 of an upright and the opposite groove 16 of the longitudinal extension 14 of the shelf.
- the wedge-shaped blocking piece 18 has two upper 19 and lower 20 faces parallel and separated by a height substantially equal to the thickness of the shelf 10.
- the front 21 and rear 22 faces are mutually parallel and perpendicular to the upper face 18.
- the second lateral face 24 forms with the first lateral face 23 a dihedral whose apex is parallel to the planes of the upper 19 and lower 20 faces, with an angle of ten degrees for example. This inclination corresponds to the inclination of the groove 16 in which it must be inserted.
- the shelf 10 is placed between the uprights so that the grooves 16 form a conical housing 17 open upwards.
- the shelf 10 is fixed by inserting the wedge-shaped locking pieces 18 into the housings 17, with the oblique lateral face 24 bearing against the longitudinal extension 13 or 14, and the lateral face 23 bearing in the vertical groove 12 of the upright.
- the shelves 10 admit a plane of transverse symmetry II-11, so that the housings 17 are on the same side of the longitudinal axis of symmetry II. So the pieces of wedge-shaped blocking 18 are hardly visible to the user, being arranged behind two uprights 2 and 3 which hide them if the user has these uprights at the front of the shelving. In addition, possible blocking imperfections which would occur if the wedge-shaped parts were arranged in a crossed manner are avoided.
- the shelf 10 is pushed back and the extensions 13 and 14 come to bear in the grooves 12 of the uprights 1 and 4.
- the shelf is held in a longitudinal direction by the dovetail shape of the extensions 13 and 14 inserted between the corresponding uprights, held in the transverse direction II-II by the locking pieces eliminating the play between the extensions 13 or 14 and the corresponding uprights in the transverse direction, and blocked in the vertical direction by the friction between these same extensions 13 or 14 and the walls of the corresponding grooves 12.
- the distance between the front 21 and rear 22 faces of the wedge-shaped blocking piece 18 can preferably be chosen equal to the length of the extensions 13 or 14, so that two wedge-shaped pieces 18 can be inserted into the same groove 12 to hold two successive shelves 10 and 10a.
- the length 1 of the extensions 13 and 14 can be increased in the case where it is not desired to have successive shelves 10 and 10a.
- the vertical grooves 12 of the uprights can also be used to adapt panels or other accessories to the uprights, to which they are then secured by members engaging in the grooves 12.
- drawer slides or short support shelves to the uprights, adapted by the same assembly means as the shelves.
- the slides or shelves rest on tabs 11 and comprise, as shown in FIG. 2 along the dotted line 30, a longitudinal extension 14, a lateral rib 15, a lateral groove 16 receiving a blocking piece 18 in the form of a wedge.
