Definitions

  • the entire lower corner area of the longitudinal and transverse edge profiles is free for easy insertion in even relatively bulky shelf supports on the shelf posts, so that optional shelf supports can attack both the longitudinal and transverse edge profiles, without the strength of the shelf in the Corner area, especially the torsional rigidity, is significantly affected.

Abstract

In shelves with folded reinforcement members at the longitudinal and transverse edges, at least the reinforcement member at the front longitudinal edge being formed as a closed square, in particular a rectangular tubular cross-section, and having an end flange resting on the underside of the shelf and provided outside the tubular cross-section, whereas the reinforcement members of both transverse edges have an angular cross-section, a solution is to be provided which, with less manufacturing outlay, allows shelves to be inserted relatively simply and securely, even in the case of angular shelf posts, into the shelf supports constructed thereon. This is achieved in that the inner limb (11) of the box-type longitudinal edge member (2) is cut out in the corner region between the longitudinal and transverse edge members (2, 9) and bent into the plane of the end flange (13) of the transverse edge member (9), lying above or below said end flange, and is connected thereto, a recess (A) for receiving a shelf support engaging either on the longitudinal or the transverse reinforcement member (2, 9), being constructed in the corner region of the overlapping parts (12, 13). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Regalboden mit durch Abkantungen gebildeten Versteifungsprofilen an den Längs- und Querkanten, wobei mindestens das Versteifungsprofil an der vorderen Längskante als geschlossener Vierkant, insbesondere Rechteck-Rohrquerschnitt, geformt ist und einen an der Unterseite des Regalbodens anliegenden, außerhalb des Rohrquerschnitts vorgesehenen Endflansch aufweist, während die Versteifungsprofile beider Querkanten einen winkelförmigen Querschnitt haben.The invention relates to a shelf with stiffening profiles formed by folds on the longitudinal and transverse edges, at least the stiffening profile on the front longitudinal edge being shaped as a closed square, in particular rectangular tube cross section, and an end flange provided on the underside of the shelf and provided outside the tube cross section has, while the stiffening profiles of both transverse edges have an angular cross-section.

Bei einem bekannten Regalboden dieser Art (DE-PS 31 24 922) ist wenigstens das vordere Längskanten-Versteifungsprofil von zwei durch ein nach unten offenes Rinnenprofilstuck im Abstand voneinander gehaltenen, parallelen Rohrquerschnitten gebildet, deren sich im Abstand gegenüberliegende Wandungen zugleich die Schenkel des Rinnenprofilstücks sind, wodurch sich eine besonders hohe Torsions- bzw. Verdrehungsfestigkeit im Eckenbereich, aber auch eine insgesamt erhöhte Belastbarkeit in Vertikalrichtung ergibt. Gegenüber anderen bekannten Regalböden, bei denen der untere Längs- und Querkantenbereich der Versteifungsprofile von sich horizontal erstreckenden Profilierungen zum leichteren Einsetzen in an Regalpfosten ausgebildeten Regalträgern freigehalten ist, ist es bei dem bekannten Regalboden gemäß DE 31 24 922 notwendig, besondere Schlitze in den unteren horizontalen Versteifungsprofilabschnitten auszubilden, was einerseits fertigungstechnisch relativ aufwendig ist und zum anderen eine relativ schwierige Handhabung beim Einhängen der Regalböden in die Regalträger der Regalpfosten mit sich bringt, insbesondere bei der Verwendung winkelförmiger Regalpfosten, bei denen die Regalträger sowohl in den Eckenbereichen der Längs- als auch der Querkanten der Versteifungsprofile angreifen können müssen, weil die Regalträger sich an den winkelförmigen Regalpfosten in gleicher Höhe an einem Schenkel zum Winkelinneren und am anderen Schenkel zum Winkeläußeren erstrecken müssen, derart, daß jeweils bei einem winkelförmigen Regalpfosten ein Längsträgerprofil im Eckenbereich einhängbar ist und beim benachbarten Regalboden ein Querträgerprofil.In a known shelf of this type (DE-PS 31 24 922) at least the front longitudinal edge stiffening profile is formed by two parallel tube cross sections held apart by a downwardly open channel profile piece, the mutually opposite walls of which are at the same time the legs of the channel profile piece , which results in a particularly high torsional or torsional strength in the corner area, but also an overall increased load capacity in the vertical direction. Compared to other known shelves, in which the lower longitudinal and transverse edge region of the stiffening profiles is kept free from horizontally extending profiles for easier insertion in shelf supports formed on shelf posts, it is in the known shelf according to DE 31 24 922 necessary to form special slots in the lower horizontal stiffening profile sections, which on the one hand is relatively complex to manufacture and on the other hand involves relatively difficult handling when hanging the shelves into the shelf supports of the shelf posts, especially when using angled shelf posts, in which the Shelf supports must be able to attack both in the corner areas of the longitudinal and the transverse edges of the stiffening profiles, because the shelf supports must extend at the same height on the angled shelf posts on one leg to the inside of the angle and on the other leg to the outside of the angle, in such a way that each has an angled shape A longitudinal beam profile can be hung in the corner post in the corner area and a cross beam profile in the adjacent shelf.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist die Schaffung einer Lösung, welche es bei geringerem Herstellungsaufwand ermöglicht, Regalböden relativ einfach und sicher auch bei winkelförmigen Regalpfosten in die an diesen ausgebildeten Regalträger einsetzen zu können.The object of the invention is to provide a solution which, with less manufacturing effort, enables shelves to be inserted relatively easily and safely even in the case of angular shelf posts in the shelf supports formed thereon.

Bei einem Regalboden der eingangs bezeichneten Art wird diese Aufgabe gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß im Eckenbereich zwischen Längs- und Querkantenprofilen der innenliegende Schenkel des kastenförmigen Längskantenprofils ausgeschnitten und in die Ebene des Endflansches des Querkantenprofils diesen überdeckend gebogen und mit diesem verbunden ist, wobei im Eckenbereich der sich überdeckenden Teile eine Ausnehmung zur Aufnahme eines entweder am Längs- oder Querkantenprofil angreifenden Regalbodenträgers ausgebildet ist.In a shelf of the type mentioned, this object is achieved according to the invention in that the inner leg of the box-shaped longitudinal edge profile is cut out in the corner region between longitudinal and transverse edge profiles and in the plane of the end flange of the The transverse edge profile is bent so as to overlap it and is connected to it, a recess being formed in the corner region of the overlapping parts for receiving a shelf support which either engages the longitudinal or transverse edge profile.

Aufgrund dieser Ausgestaltung ist der gesamte untere Eckenbereich der Längs- und Querkantenprofile zum leichten Einsetzen in auch relativ sperrige Regalbodenträger an den Regalpfosten frei, so daß wahlweise Regalbodenträger sowohl am Längs- als auch am Querkantenprofil angreifen können, und zwar ohne daß die Festigkeit des Regalbodens im Eckenbereich, insbesondere die Torsionssteifigkeit, wesentlich beeinträchtigt wird.Due to this design, the entire lower corner area of the longitudinal and transverse edge profiles is free for easy insertion in even relatively bulky shelf supports on the shelf posts, so that optional shelf supports can attack both the longitudinal and transverse edge profiles, without the strength of the shelf in the Corner area, especially the torsional rigidity, is significantly affected.

Eine besonders gute Verbindung zwischen den beiden sich überdeckenden Teilen ergibt sich dabei, wenn man diese mittels Druckfügetechnik bzw. Materialverformung der betreffenden Teile bildet.A particularly good connection between the two overlapping parts is obtained if they are formed by means of pressure joining technology or material deformation of the parts in question.

Eine weitere Verbesserung der Ecksteifigkeit erhält man, wenn der Vertikalschenkel des Längs- oder Querkantenprofils im Eckenbereich um 90° umgebogen ist und dem Vertikalschenkel des anderen Versteifungsprofils von innen anliegt.A further improvement in the corner stiffness is obtained when the vertical leg of the longitudinal or transverse edge profile is bent by 90 ° in the corner area and lies against the vertical leg of the other stiffening profile from the inside.

Ferner kann der an den ausgeschnittenen und umgebogenen Verbindungsteil des innenliegenden Schenkels des kastenförmigen Längskantenprofils angrenzende Bereich ein Stück ausgeschnitten sein, um derart von innen Befestigungsarbeiten an Befestigungsmitteln, wie insbesondere Schrauben, vornehmen zu können, die in Öffnungen am außenliegenden Schenkel des kastenförmigen Längskantenprofils einsetzbar sind.Furthermore, the area adjoining the cut-out and bent-over connecting part of the inner leg of the box-shaped longitudinal edge profile can be cut out a piece in order to be able to carry out fastening work on the inside from fastening means, such as in particular screws, which can be used in openings on the outer leg of the box-shaped longitudinal edge profile.

Die Erfindung ist nachstehend anhand der Zeichnung beispielsweise näher erläutert. Diese zeigt in perspektivischer Darstellung eine Innenansicht des Eckenbereiches eines Regalbodens gemäß der Erfindung von schräg unten gesehen, d.h. in gegenüber der Einbaustellung um 180° gedrehter Position.The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing, for example. This shows in perspective an interior view of the corner area of a shelf according to the invention viewed obliquely from below, i.e. in the position rotated by 180 ° in relation to the installation position.

Ein insgesamt mit 1 bezeichneter, einteilig aus einem zunächst ebenen Blechstück geformter Regalboden ist in seinem vorderen Randbereich zu einem kastenförmigen Längskantenprofil 2 umgebogen, wobei ein Endflansch 3 mit der Tragfläche 4 des Regalbodens durch Druckfügetechnik 5 verbunden ist. Der außenliegende Schenkel 6 des kastenförmigen Längskantenprofils 2 ist mit einem um 90° umgebogenen Eckenbereich 7 versehen, der dem Vertikalschenkel 8 des winkelförmigen Querkantenprofils 9 anliegt und mittels Druckfügetechnik 10 mit diesem verbunden ist.A shelf designated overall by 1 and formed in one piece from an initially flat piece of sheet metal is bent in its front edge region to form a box-shaped longitudinal edge profile 2, an end flange 3 being connected to the supporting surface 4 of the shelf by press-fitting technology 5. The outer leg 6 of the box-shaped longitudinal edge profile 2 is provided with a corner region 7 which is bent by 90 °, which abuts the vertical leg 8 of the angular cross-edge profile 9 and is connected to it by means of pressure joining technology 10.

Der innenliegende Schenkel 11 des kastenförmigen Längskantenprofils 2 ist im Eckenbereich ausgeschnitten (A) und mit einem Verbindungssteg 12 in die Ebene eines Endflansches 13 des Querkantenprofils 9, diesen unterdeckend, gebogen und mit diesem mittels Druckfügetechnik 14 verbunden, wobei im Eckenbereich der sich überdeckenden Teile eine Ausnehmung 15 zum leichten Einsetzen in einen nicht dargestellten, entweder am äußeren Schenkel 6 oder Vertikalschenkel 8 des Längs- oder Querkantenprofils 2 bzw. 9 angreifenden Regalbodenträgers ausgebildet ist, derart, daß sich der Verbindungssteg 12 diagonal zwischen dem Endflansch 13 und dem in gleicher Ebene befindlichen Steg 15 des kastenförmigen Längskantenprofils 2 erstreckt.The inside leg 11 of the box-shaped longitudinal edge profile 2 is cut out in the corner area (A) and bent with a connecting web 12 into the plane of an end flange 13 of the transverse edge profile 9, covering this, and connected to it by means of pressure joining technology 14, one in the corner area of the overlapping parts Recess 15 for easy insertion into a shelf support, not shown, which engages either on the outer leg 6 or vertical leg 8 of the longitudinal or transverse edge profile 2 or 9, such that the connecting web 12 is located diagonally between the end flange 13 and the one located in the same plane Web 15 of the box-shaped longitudinal edge profile 2 extends.

Außerdem ist der innenliegende Schenkel 11 des kastenförmigen Längskantenprofils 2 angrenzend an den Verbindungssteg 14 ein Stück ausgeschnitten, derart, daß von innen ein Zugang zu Ausschnitten 16 im außenliegenden Schenkel 6 des kastenförmigen Längskantenprofils 2 möglich ist, um beispielsweise Verschraubungsarbeiten an durch die Ausnehmungen 16 gesteckten Befestigungsschrauben vornehmen zu können.In addition, the inner leg 11 of the box-shaped longitudinal edge profile 2 adjacent to the connecting web 14 is cut out so that access to cutouts 16 in the outer leg 6 of the box-shaped longitudinal edge profile 2 is possible, for example for screwing work on fastening screws inserted through the recesses 16 to be able to make.

Wie erkennbar ist, kann aufgrund der beschriebenen Ausbildung ein Regalboden der betreffenden Art in um 180° gedrehter Stellung von oben in nicht gezeigte Regalbodenträger eines ebenfalls nicht gezeigten Regalpfostens eingehängt werden, und zwar wahlweise sowohl mit dem außenliegenden Schenkel 6 des Längskantenprofils 2 als auch des Vertikalschenkels 8 des Querkantenprofils 9, ohne die Ecksteifigkeit des Regalbodens wesentlich zu beeinträchtigen.As can be seen, due to the design described, a shelf of the type in question can be hung in a position rotated by 180 ° from above into shelf supports, not shown, of a shelf post, also not shown are, either with the outer leg 6 of the longitudinal edge profile 2 and the vertical leg 8 of the transverse edge profile 9, without significantly affecting the corner stiffness of the shelf.
