Der Steckabschnitt 17 greift in die Spange 9 von oben her ein. Er ist mit zwei rechtwinklig zueinander gerichteten Durchgangsbohrungen 18 versehen. Auch in der Spange 8 sind Öffnungen vorgesehen, mit denen jede der beiden Durchgangsbohrungen 18 fluchtend ausgerichtet werden kann. Fig. 4 zeigt eine solche Ausrichtung, in der ein als Rundstab 10 ausgebildeter Tragarm ausgehend von einem Hohlpfosten 5 nach vorn vorsteht. Ein Sicherungsbolzen 19 ist dabei durch die Spange 8 und eine Durchgangsbohrung 18 hinduchgeführt. Ein Federschenkel 20 dieses Sicherungsbolzens 19 sichert diesen an der Spange 8.In the embodiment described, a round rod 10 is provided, which has a support section 16 and a plug section 17. Both sections run approximately at right angles to each other. The plug section 17 engages in the clasp 9 from above. It is provided with two through bores 18 directed at right angles to one another. Openings are also provided in the clasp 8 with which each of the two through holes 18 can be aligned. FIG. 4 shows such an orientation in which a support arm designed as a round rod 10 projects forward from a hollow post 5. A securing bolt 19 is passed through the clasp 8 and a through hole 18. A spring leg 20 of this securing bolt 19 secures it to the clasp 8.

Nach Entfernen des Sicherungsbolzens 19 kann bei der in Fig. 4 dargestellten AusfUhrungsform der Rundstab 10 um 90 Grad seitlich verschwenkt werden und in dieser Position erneut durch den Sicherungsbolzen 19 gesichert werden.After removing the securing bolt 19, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the round rod 10 can be pivoted laterally by 90 degrees and can be secured again in this position by the securing bolt 19.

Die Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung nach den Figuren 5 und 6 unterscheidet sich von der zuvor beschriebenen lediglich dadurch, daß der Steckabschnitt 17 des Rundstabes 10 fest mit der Spange 8 Über Buckelschweißungen 21 verschweißt ist, also ein Verschwenken des Rundstabes 10 ausschließt. Dennoch ist der so gebildete Tragarm durch Lösen der Spange 8 an den Hohlpfosten 5 in den gewünschten Höhenpositionen festlegbar.The embodiment of the device according to the invention according to FIGS. 5 and 6 differs from the one described above only in that the plug-in section 17 of the round rod 10 is firmly welded to the clasp 8 via projection welds 21, that is, it prevents the round rod 10 from pivoting. Nevertheless, the support arm thus formed can be fixed in the desired height positions by loosening the clasp 8 on the hollow post 5.

Die AusfUhrungsform der regalartigen Vorrichtung nach Fig. 7 ist in der bereits beschriebenen Weise ausgebildet und mit Tragarmen 10 versehen. Zusätzlich ist dabei aber ein GriffbUgel 25 vorgesehen, der insgesamt U-föraig ausgebildet ist.

The support arms 26 are detachably connected to the hollow posts 5 via clips 9, as was described in particular with reference to FIGS. 2, 5 and 6. Laterally projecting side handles 28 are firmly connected to the support arms 26.

Bei der Ausführungsform nach den Fig. 8 bis 10 ist in einen Hohlpfosten 5 eine Spange 29 lösbar eingesetzt, wobei die Einhängenasen 13 dieser Spange in Fensterschlitze 8 eingreifen. Die Spange 29 entspricht im wesentlichen der anhand der Figuren 3, 4 beschriebenen Spange 29 und nimmt einen Steckabschnitt 17 eines Rundstabes 10 auf. In diesen Steckabschnitt 17 ist eine Schraube 30 eingeschraubt, deren Schaft durch einen Schlitz in der Spange 29 hindurchführt. Der Schlitz erstreckt sich dabei über einen Bogenabschnitt von etwa 90°. Die Achse der Schraube 30 ist um etwa 45° in bezug auf die Achse des Tragabschnitts 16 des Tragarms 10 versetzt.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 8 to 10, a clip 29 is detachably inserted into a hollow post 5, the hooking lugs 13 of this clip engaging in window slots 8. The clasp 29 corresponds essentially to the clasp 29 described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4 and receives a plug section 17 of a round rod 10. A screw 30 is screwed into this plug section 17, the shaft of which passes through a slot in the clasp 29. The slit he extends over an arc section of approximately 90 °. The axis of the screw 30 is offset by approximately 45 ° with respect to the axis of the support section 16 of the support arm 10.

Die Schraube 30 führt ferner durch ein Klemmstück 31, dessen der Spange 29 zugewandtes Ende der Kontur der Spange 29 angepaßt ist. Das Klemmstück 31 besteht aus Kunststoff. Es nimmt den Kopf 32 der Schraube 30 in einer Versenkung 33 auf. Der Schraubenkopf 32 ist stets zugänglich.The screw 30 also passes through a clamping piece 31, the end of the clasp 29 facing the contour of the clasp 29 is adapted. The clamping piece 31 is made of plastic. It receives the head 32 of the screw 30 in a recess 33. The screw head 32 is always accessible.

Für die einzelnen zuvor beschriebenen Ausführungsformen wurde jeweils nur ein Tragarm mit Spange und Rundstab beschrieben. Die Vorrichtung insgesamt weist aber mehrere derartige Tragarme auf, von denen in der Regel zwei an den beiden Hohlpfosten 5 gem. Fig. 1 in einer Höhenlage angeordnet sein werden. Es ist möglich, an ein und derselben Regalvorrichtung Tragarme verschiedener AusfUhrungsformen unterzubringen.For the individual embodiments described above, only one support arm with a clasp and a round rod has been described.
