Definitions

• the invention relates to a supporting structure of a
• a maximum of six supporting rods can each be connected to one node at a right angle to one another, so that diverse spatial constructions of a cabinet or shelf can be formed.
• the support rods usually formed by hollow profiles, can, for example, also be provided with external grooves for receiving a rectangular sheet forming a floor, a ceiling or a side wall.
• a disadvantage of the known supporting structures is the lack of suitable construction elements for pivotable flaps or doors in order to also form a cabinet closed by doors or individual compartments closed by flaps on a shelf.
• the invention makes it its task to provide a supporting structure for a cabinet or shelf construction system with which flaps or doors can also be installed in a simple manner.
• the aim is to ensure that the supporting rod is at least one parallel to the longitudinal axis of the supporting rod Axis pivotable tab, on which a flap or door is pivotally fixed relative to the support rod.
• a single, suitably wide rag may be sufficient for small flaps.
• two lobes, which in the case of large doors or flaps can hold the weight of comparatively large doors or flaps, are preferably provided regularly.
• a hinge having the tab connects two support rod sections.
• existing support rod sections can be used from a modular system of the support structure according to the invention. Separately designed support rods with at least one pivotable tab can thus be avoided and the modular system as a whole can be kept very universal with comparatively few components.
• the hinge has an axial, central threaded bore, so that a connection of the support rod sections is made possible, for example, by screwing.
• the hinge has a central body which carries a pivotable sleeve to which the tab is connected.
• a load-bearing hinge is thus realized in a simple manner, wherein an axial guidance of the sleeve can be achieved by the measure that the sleeve is embedded flush in a groove in the central body.
• the sleeve is also preferably radial designed flush and final with the central body and therefore does not protrude radially.
• the hinge in the support rod, in particular between the support rod sections is hardly noticeable. This is especially not the case if the tab is arranged in a view from the outside behind a flap or a door, for which purpose the tab around the
• Thickness of a sleeve or flap is offset from the axis on the sleeve.
• the central body is designed to taper axially at both ends and to have a blunt end.
• self-centering takes place during assembly and, moreover, there is a large contact surface for good power transmission via the hinge between the support rod sections.
• the central body is expediently formed in two pieces, a first section having an axially extending, central internal thread and a second section engaging in the central internal thread of the first section with a spike-like, externally threaded attachment.
• This division in two makes it possible to connect the two sections each with support bar sections and then to obtain a support bar by screwing the two sections together, in which the hinge securely connects two support bar sections.
• the hinge can expediently be inserted into the by means of two Support rod sections of inserted dowels are connected to these. Such a connection, which can be released again on a regular basis, is usually sufficient.
• the knot is also fixed to a support rod section by means of, in particular, a similar dowel.
• the outer dimensions of the central body and the sleeve of the hinge are expediently corresponding to those of a knot.
• the knot is also axially tapered at both ends and ends at a blunt end, and that a central, cylindrical section has a sleeve that has been pushed on.
• a shaped piece forming a positive transition is arranged between the knot and the support rod or a support rod section.
• this also means that comparatively large forces can be introduced into the knot via the support rod or support rod sections.
• a dowel is further preferred, in which two segments of rectangular cross section which can be moved against one another are provided with opposing wedge surfaces and which can be braced against one another by means of a screw.
• the segments running onto the wedge surfaces the cross-section over the segments is enlarged and, due to the wedge effect, a high contact pressure of the segments against the inner wall of the hollow profile is possible, so that the dowel can be pulled out of one Hollow profile trained support rod section or the support rod is almost impossible.

• a support rod section 2 of a support rod 3 is connected horizontally to a node 1. Rising vertically and extending horizontally into the plane of the drawing, two further profiles 4, 5 are connected to the node 1 while An adjustable foot 6 is still connected on the underside, see also FIG. 8, in which the rising profile 4 is not shown.
• the support rod 3 has a plurality of support rod sections 2, 7, which are connected by a hinge 8, which is further explained with reference to FIGS. 2-4.
• the hinge 8 is provided with a tab 9, which is pivotable about an axis 10, which coincides here with the axis of symmetry of the support rod 3.
• a flap 11 can thus be pivoted about the axis 10, which is screwed here to the tab 9, for which purpose these have two bores 12.
• the flap 9 is arranged in a plane that is offset by the material thickness of the flap 11 from a parallel plane through the axis 10, see Figure 3.
• the flap 9 is connected via a web 13 to a sleeve 14 which is on a central body 15 is rotatably supported by the sleeve 14 is embedded axially flush in a groove 16 of the central body 15.
• the sleeve 14 also closes radially flush with the central body 15.
• the central body 15 is axially tapered and blunt-ended at both ends and consists of two sections 17, 18 screwed together.
• a first section 17 has an axially extending, central internal thread 19 for screwing, into which a spike-like, externally threaded projection 20 of the second section 18 is screwed.
• Figure 1 further shows that the geometry of the outer shell of the central body 15 with the recessed sleeve 14 corresponds to that of the support rod sections 2,7.
• the hinge 8 inserted between the support rod sections 2, 7 in the support rod 3 is hardly noticeable.
