Definitions

  • the invention relates to a stacking element, in particular for the formation of shelf walls or the like, with a, preferably rectangular, bottom, a rear wall having a latching device and at least two side walls.
  • Stacking elements of the aforementioned type are mainly used as a collecting container for small materials.
  • a collecting container for loose documents with the features mentioned above in which the locking device provided on the rear wall serves to od a plurality of collecting containers with a on a shelf.
  • the locking device provided on the rear wall serves to od a plurality of collecting containers with a on a shelf.
  • the latching device serves for the fact that several containers lined up on a shelf can be locked in alignment with one another.
  • shelves or the like are also required to accommodate the load.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of designing and developing a rack system from known and initially described stacking elements so that it is simple enough that the aforementioned disadvantages are avoided and the area of use of the stacking elements is improved in the broadest sense.
  • This object is achieved in the shelf system consisting of inventive stacking elements in that the rear wall of the stacking element consists of a lower and an upper wall element, which are arranged such that they are offset such that a locking slot between the rear edge of the floor and the lower wall element for receiving the upper wall element formed in this area as a tongue from a further stack element or another support element.
  • the above-described configuration achieves universal use of the stacking elements according to the invention. It is essential with these stacking elements that the individual rear walls partially overlap and can be plugged into one another. As a result, a plurality of stacking elements according to the invention can be arranged one above the other to form a shelf or the like, without the need for additional connecting, stiffening, carrying or holding means. It is quickly apparent that the inventive design of the stacking element creates a self-supporting shelf, which can be used on a wall, freely in the room, as a column or as a room divider. Another advantage of the stacking element according to the invention is its expandability. Invention according to the invention it is possible to extend a shelf consisting of several stacking elements at any time in height and also in width. At least when the floor is loaded, each individual stacking element according to the invention has a pre-advantageous clamping effect between the rear edge of the floor and the lower wall element.
  • stacking element according to the invention it is easy to see that there are a variety of possibilities to implement the stacking element according to the invention.
  • the stacking element according to the invention in addition to the basic structure of the stacking element, it is conceivable, for example, to produce the stacking element according to the invention in different sizes, so that an existing space on a wall or the like can be completely filled with stacking elements.
  • components to be used according to the invention are not subject to any special exceptional conditions in terms of their size, shape, material selection and technical conception, so that the selection criteria known in the respective field of application can be used without restriction, in particular they can also be used independently of one another to solve the task or at least one subtask.
  • the stacking element 1 shows a first stacking element 1 according to the invention in a perspective view. It can be seen that the stacking element 1 consists of five basic elements: a base 2 is connected to a rear wall 3 via two side walls 4, the rear wall 3 consisting of a lower wall element 5 and an upper wall element 6. Due to the inventive arrangement of both wall elements 5 and 6, an insertion slot 7 is formed between the rear edge K of the base 2 and the lower wall element 5 for receiving an upper wall element 6, which is designed in this area as a tongue 8. It is easy to see that the stacking element 1 according to the invention can also be arranged on other supporting elements such as vertically standing boards of corresponding thickness or several strips, bars, tubes or the like which run horizontally and are arranged one above the other. For up to the floor shelf constructions made of stacking elements according to the invention, it is particularly useful to provide a base with a tongue designed as a rear wall, as will be explained further below.
  • the insertion slot 7 essentially corresponds to the thickness of the tongue 8 of the upper wall element 6.
  • the insertion slot 7 expediently extends over the full width of the stacking element 1, as can be clearly seen from FIG. 1. In this way it is possible to stack several equally high inventive stacking elements 1 also staggered one above the other. Such an arrangement is shown in Fig. 2.
  • the clear height between two stacked stacking elements 1 corresponds to the width of a stacking element 1.
  • a shelf wall with any number of "cube elements" can be created by simply stacking one on top of the other .
  • Such cube elements can be easily manufactured in various sizes and adapted to the preferred dimensions (file folder, record or book height). With a suitable choice of the width of the insertion slot 7 or the tongue 8, it is even possible to create wall walls with decreasing depth and / or width of the individual stacking elements. This will be explained in more detail below.
  • the side walls 4 are trapezoidal in this first embodiment, where the upper edge of a side wall 4 is formed by the longer base line G of the trapezoid.
  • the upper edges of the side walls do not have any load-bearing functions, which gives a shelf wall composed of such “open” stacking elements 1 according to the invention a particularly appealing overall visual impression.
  • manufacture the rear and side walls from other geometric shaped parts such as circular ring segments or the like.
  • each side wall from a plurality of side wall arms which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, the desired inclination of the floor, for example, to be accomplished by means of a bracket fixing the position of both side wall arms.
  • Figures 3 to 5 show the stacking element 1 according to the invention in a three-sided view. 5 that each side wall 4 corresponds to an isosceles trapezoid whose longer base line G corresponds to the length of the diagonals D of the Bo dens 2 according to a further embodiment of the invention. If the height H of the trapezoid corresponds to a quarter of the diagonal D of the square base 2, the length of the trapezoidal legs is exactly half the depth or the (visible) height of a stacking element 1. Such an embodiment is particularly useful if - how be already mentioned - for easier production, both wall elements 5 and 6 have the same geometric dimensions.
  • brackets 9 are provided, as indicated by dash-dotted lines in FIG. 5.
  • the side walls 4 are flush with the side edges of the bottom 2 and the rear wall 3. This can be seen particularly clearly from FIGS. 3 and 4.
  • the stack elements 1 according to the invention also have a completely flat surface on the side.
  • this embodiment of a stack element 1 according to the invention enables the side walls 4 to be used in addition for load support by the upper edge thereof serving as support for the underside of the lower wall element 5 of an upwardly following stack element 1; This corresponds to the lower edges of the side walls.
  • this is not absolutely necessary for sufficient stability of the arrangement of several stacking elements 1 according to the invention.
  • the tongue 8 of the upper wall element 6 of a stacking element 1 is so large that its upper edge lies on stacked stacking elements 1 on the lower edge of the upper wall element 6 of a next higher stacking element.
  • a separate connecting part is used as the tongue. This is the case, for example, if the stacking elements 1 according to the invention are to be arranged on a base, pedestal or the like.
  • the side walls and rear walls can be provided with slots, recesses or the like in order to save material and weight, as long as their arrangement ensures a sufficient overall stability.
  • each drawer element 10 has an inclined front. It is also conceivable to provide a staple element with doors, flaps or the like.
  • the present invention is not limited to shelf systems that are arranged in one plane, but it is also possible that the side walls 4 by arrangement at an angle. form the rear wall to each other and consist of corre sponding wall elements 5 and 6.
  • Such a "corner stacking element” 1 ' is shown in Fig. 7.
  • offset side walls 4 the function described above for the rear walls 3, 5, 6. It is easy to see that by combining several corner stacking elements 1 'free-standing "pillars" can be formed, which are particularly useful at trade fairs or exhibitions.
  • the depth of a stacking element 1 or 1A is reduced compared to a second stacking element 1A or 1B located thereunder at least by the thickness of the rear wall 3, as can be seen from FIG. 8 in which five Stack elements of different sizes according to the invention are shown (of which - just as in FIG. 9 - only the top three stack elements 1, 1A and 1B are provided with reference numerals for the sake of simplicity).
  • the side walls 4, 4A, 4B, etc. are substantially rectangular rempli remplibil det and taper in the region of their front edges V upwards. From Fig.
  • the width of a stacking element 1 or 1A compared to a stacking element 1A or 1B located below it is at least reduced by twice the thickness of a side wall 4, 4A, 4B etc. is particularly advantageous with regard to the stackability of the individual stack elements 1, 1A, 1B etc. for storage and transport purposes.
  • all stacking elements 1, 1A, 1B etc. can be placed one inside the other, so that only the space for the largest stacking element is required for a complete shelf.
  • a base element 11 is provided as a receptacle for a plurality of stacking elements 1, 1A, 1B, etc., which form a high rack.
  • a base element 11 is preferably provided with a base wall element 6S designed as a tongue and appropriately corresponds in its dimensions (width, depth) to the bottom stacking element.
  • the upper and lower wall elements 6 and 5 of the rear wall 3 are also formed in one piece.
  • wood is used as the material for the stacking element.
  • any materials such as plastic, sheet metal and even cardboard can be used for the stacking element according to the invention.
  • the possibilities of the combination with each other as well as with additional elements are so varied that an almost unlimited field of application is covered by the Stapelele element according to the invention.
  • the side walls and the rear wall could consist of curved cylinder segment shells.
  • Such Ausgestal device is particularly important for a one-piece production of stack elements - for example, in the injection molding process made of plastic.
