Description

Gebiet der ErfindungField of the invention

Die Erfindung betrifft Regalsysteme bestehend aus vertikal an einer Wand anbringbaren Regalschienen und an diesen Regalschienen fixierbaren Tragelementen oder Regalbodenträgern zur Aufnahme von Regalböden.The invention relates to shelving systems consisting of vertically attachable to a wall shelf rails and fixed to these shelf rails support elements or shelf supports for receiving shelves.

Derartige bekannte Regalsysteme sind vielfältig im Einsatz und haben sich im privaten und gewerblichen Einsatz beispielsweise für die großflächige Ablage von Büchern, Waren, Akten und dergleichen bewährt. Da solche Regalsysteme nach oben und zur Seite beliebig erweitert werden können, weisen sie eine große Flexibilität auf.Such known shelving systems are widely used and have proven themselves in private and commercial use, for example, for the large-area storage of books, goods, files and the like. Since such shelving systems can be expanded upwards and sideways, they have great flexibility.

Zur Befestigung der Regalbodenträger weisen die Wandschienen üblicherweise Löcher oder Aussparungen auf, in welche die Regalbodenträger eingehängt werden. Diese Konfiguration erlaubt eine sichere Befestigung der Regalbodenträger an der Wandschiene und ermöglicht so auch hohe Traglasten, hat jedoch den Nachteil, dass die vertikalen Positionen der Regalbodenträger und damit der Regalböden selbst auf die Positionen der Befestigungsöffnungen beschränkt sind.To fasten the shelf supports, the wall rails usually have holes or recesses into which the shelf supports are hung. This configuration allows a secure attachment of the shelf supports on the wall rail and thus allows high payloads, but has the disadvantage that the vertical positions of the shelf supports and thus the shelves are limited even to the positions of the mounting holes.

Es besteht daher der Wunsch nach einem Regalsystem, bei dem eine stufenlose Verstellbarkeit der Regalbodenträger möglich ist.There is therefore a desire for a shelving system in which a continuous adjustment of the shelf supports is possible.

Aus der AT 216176 ist ein Regalsystem bestehend aus einer U-förmigen Wandschiene mit seitlichen Fortsätzen sowie einem U-förmigen Regalbodenträger bekannt, welcher Regalbodenträger an seinem hinteren, der Wandschiene zugewandten Ende mit in den Ständer eingreifenden Zungen versehen ist, wobei die Seitenteile des Trägers in der Nähe des die Zungen aufweisenden hinteren Endes zwecks Anpressens der Zungen gegen die seitlichen Fortsätze der Wandschienen durch eine Schraube mit Rechts- und Linksgewinde miteinander verbunden sind und wobei die Zungen in auseinander gepreßter Lage mit ihrer Außenseite die seitlichen Fortsätze an drei Seiten fest umschließen. Diese Ausführung ist jedoch mit dem Nachteil verbunden, dass zum Lösen und zum Fixieren des Regalbodenträgers jedes Mal eine Schraubverbindung gelöst bzw. angezogen werden muß. Durch die Verwendung der Schraubverbindung wird außerdem die Herstellung der Regalbodenträger aufwändig und teuer, was insbesondere bei einem Massenartikel einen erheblichen Nachteil darstellt.From the AT 216176 is a shelving system consisting of a U-shaped wall rail with side extensions and a U-shaped shelf support known which shelf support at its rear, the wall rail facing the end with engaging tabs in the stator, wherein the side parts of the carrier in the vicinity of the tongues having the rear end for pressing the tongues against the lateral extensions of the wall rails by a screw with right and left hand threads are connected together and the tongues in the pressed apart position with its outer side tightly enclose the lateral extensions on three sides. However, this embodiment has the disadvantage that for loosening and fixing the shelf support each time a screw must be solved or tightened. In addition, the use of the screw connection makes the manufacture of the shelf supports complex and expensive, which represents a considerable disadvantage, in particular for a mass-produced item.

Zusammenfassung der ErfindungSummary of the invention

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zu Grunde, ein Regalsystem bestehend aus den Elementen Wandschiene und Regalbodenträger vorzuschlagen, das eine stufenlose Verstellmöglichkeit der Regalböden bei gleichzeitig hoher Tragfähigkeit erlaubt. Weiterhin sollen die Regalbodenträger schnell und einfach an der Wandschiene fixierbar und wieder lösbar sein und schließlich sollten Wandschiene und Regalbodenträger als Massenartikel einfach und kostengünstig herstellbar sein.The present invention is therefore based on the object to propose a shelving system consisting of the elements wall rail and shelf support, which allows a continuous adjustment of the shelves with high load capacity. Furthermore, the shelf supports should be quickly and easily fixable to the wall rail and be releasable again and finally wall rail and shelf support should be mass-produced simple and inexpensive.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch ein Regalsystem bestehend aus wenigstens einer als U-förmiges Profil ausgebildeten, vertikal anbringbaren Wandschiene, welche an den beiden der Wand abgewandten Schenkeln des U-Profils sich in Längsrichtung der Regalschiene erstreckende C-förmige Abschlussabschnitte aufweist, sowie wenigstens einem in der Wandschiene verschiebbaren und an einer wählbaren Position an der Wandschiene fixierbaren Tragelement, das an seinem hinteren, der Wand zugewandten Ende ein paar seitliche, nach vorne ragende Vorsprünge aufweist, die in einer Horizontalstellung des Tragelements in der Wandschiene mit den C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitten derart zusammenwirken, dass das Tragelement an der Wandschiene fixiert ist und sich an dieser abstützt.The object is achieved by a shelving system consisting of at least one designed as a U-shaped profile, vertically attachable wall rail, which has at the two walls facing away from the wall legs of the U-profile extending in the longitudinal direction of the shelf rail C-shaped end sections, and at least one in the wall rail slidable and fixable at a selectable position on the wall rail support member having at its rear, the wall end facing a few lateral, forwardly projecting projections which cooperate in a horizontal position of the support member in the wall rail with the C-shaped end portions such in that the support element is fixed to the wall rail and is supported on it.

Vorzugsweise werden die beidseitigen Vorsprünge des Tragelements den C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitten unter Spannung gehalten, wobei die Abschlussabschnitte eine Seitwärtsbewegung der Vorsprünge aus den Einkerbungen heraus unterbinden.Preferably, the two-sided protrusions of the support member are held under tension to the C-shaped end portions, the termination portions preventing sideward movement of the protrusions out of the indentations.

Um die elastische Spannung zu erzielen, ist ein Abstand a vom vorderen Ende des Vorsprungs bis zum hinteren Ende des Tragelements in spannungsfreien Zustand größer als der Abstand b von der Basisfläche der Wandschiene, an welcher sich das Tragelement in Horizontalposition abstützt, und der vorderen Innenfläche des Abschlussabschnitts. Die Abstandsdifferenz a - b kann dabei zwischen 0,1 mm und 0,5 mm betragen.In order to achieve the elastic tension, a distance a from the front end of the projection to the rear end of the support member in a tension-free state is greater than the distance b from the base surface of the wall rail, on which the support element is supported in horizontal position, and the front inner surface of the termination portion. The distance difference a - b can be between 0.1 mm and 0.5 mm.

Das Tragelement ist vorzugsweise durch Kippen seines vorderen, von der Wand abgewandten Endes nach oben von der Wandschiene lösbar, so dass es in der Wandschiene in Vertikalrichtung verschiebbar ist. Damit ist eine einfache und sichere Handhabung der Tragelemente gewährleistet. Zum Lösen wird das Tragelement einfach um beispielsweise 30 oder 45 Grad nach oben gekippt, in die gewünschte Höhe verschoben und dann zur Fixierung wieder in Horizontalposition gebracht.The support element is preferably detachable from the wall rail by tilting its front end facing away from the wall so that it can be displaced in the vertical direction in the wall rail. For a simple and safe handling of the support elements is guaranteed. To release the support element is simply tilted for example 30 or 45 degrees upwards, moved to the desired height and then brought back to horizontal position for fixation.

Vorzugsweise sind die beiden Vorsprünge nahe der Oberkante des Tragelements angeordnet, wobei die obere hintere Ecke des Tragelements abgerundet, vorzugsweise kreisbogenförmig ausgebildet ist und das vordere Ende der seitlichen Vorsprünge ebenfalls abgerundet, vorzugsweise halbkreisförmig ausgebildet ist. Diese Anordnung erleichtert das Lösen und Fixieren des Tragelements durch Kippen relativ zur Wandschiene. Die Anordnung der Vorsprünge nahe der Oberkante des Tragelements erleichtert eine Abstützung des Tragelements an jeder Seite gegen die Basis der Wandschiene, wodurch hohe Traglasten erreicht werden können.Preferably, the two projections are arranged near the upper edge of the support element, wherein the upper rear corner of the support element is rounded, preferably circular arc-shaped and the front end of the lateral projections is also rounded, preferably semi-circular. This arrangement facilitates the release and fixing of the support element by tilting relative to the wall rail. The arrangement of the projections near the upper edge of the support member facilitates support of the support member on each side against the base of the wall rail, whereby high payloads can be achieved.

Vorzugsweise weist das Tragelement einen nach oben geöffneten U-förmigen Querschnitt auf.Preferably, the support element has an upwardly open U-shaped cross-section.

An der Basisfläche der Wandschiene können beidseitig zusätzliche Längsnuten ausgebildet sein, um die beiden Seitenwangen des U-förmigen Tragelements aufzunehmen, wodurch die Position des Tragelements in seitlicher Richtung weiter stabilisiert wird.On the base surface of the wall rail can be formed on both sides additional longitudinal grooves to receive the two side cheeks of the U-shaped support member, whereby the position of the support member is further stabilized in the lateral direction.

Zur Vereinfachung der Herstellung können die beiden seitlichen Vorsprünge durch Ausstanzen aus den Seitenwangen des Tragelements gebildet sein.To simplify the production, the two lateral projections may be formed by punching out of the side cheeks of the support element.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausbildung der Erfindung können an der Wandschiene in regelmäßigen Abständen Markierungen, beispielsweise in Form von Einkerbungen oder dergleichen ausgebildet sein, um als vertikale Orientierung zur Anordnung der Tragelements und damit Regalböden zu dienen.According to a further embodiment of the invention may be formed on the wall rail at regular intervals marks, for example in the form of notches or the like, to serve as a vertical orientation for the arrangement of the support element and thus shelves.

Um die Tragelemente oder Regalbodenträger "einzufädeln" kann die Wandschiene wenigstens einen Entnahmeabschnitt aufweisen, bei dem die C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitte unterbrochen sind.In order to "thread" the support elements or shelf supports, the wall rail can have at least one removal section, in which the C-shaped end sections are interrupted.

Wie in der Horizontalschnittansicht von Figur 4a) gezeigt ist weist die Wandschiene 30 einen insgesamt U-förmigen Querschnitt auf mit einer Basisfläche 30a, an welche sich beidseitige Schenkel 30b mit jeweils einem C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitt 32 anschließen.As shown in the horizontal sectional view of FIG. 4 a), the wall rail 30 has an overall U-shaped cross-section with a base surface 30 a, which is adjoined by two-sided legs 30 b, each with a C-shaped end section 32.

Ein erfindungsgemäßer Regalbodenträger 20 weist wie in Figur 3 und Figur 4b) gezeigt beidseitig seitliche, nach vorne weisende Vorsprünge 22 auf, die dann, wenn sich der Regalbodenträger 20 wie in Figur 5 gezeigt in seiner Horizontalpositon in der Wandschiene befindet, in die C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitte 32 eingreifen und durch elastische Spannung gehalten werden, da ein Abstand a (Figur 4b) von einem hinteren Ende des Regalbodenträgers bis zum vorderen Ende der Vorsprünge 22 etwas größer ist als Abstand b (siehe Figur 4a) von der Basisfläche 30a der Regalschiene bis zur vorderen Innenfläche 33 der C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitte 32. Die Abstandsdifferenz a - b kann dabei vorzugsweise zwischen 0,1 mm und 0,5 mm betragen entsprechend der Stärke und Elastizität des gewählten Materials von Wandschiene und Regalbodenträger.An inventive shelf support 20 has, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4b) on both sides lateral, forwardly facing projections 22 which, when the shelf support 20 is shown in Figure 5 in its horizontal position in the wall rail, in the C-shaped End portions 32 engage and held by elastic tension, since a distance a (Figure 4b) from a rear end of the shelf support to the front end of the projections 22 is slightly larger than distance b (see Figure 4a) from the base surface 30a of the shelf rail to The distance difference a - b may preferably be between 0.1 mm and 0.5 mm according to the strength and elasticity of the selected material of wall rail and shelf support.

Wie in Figur 3 gezeigt ist, sind die seitlichen Vorsprünge 22 in einem oberen hinteren Bereich nahe der Oberkante 27 und der hinteren oberen Ecke 28 des Tragelements 20 angeordnet. So stützt sich das an seinen "eingeklemmten" Vorsprüngen 22 gehaltene Tragelement 20 bei Belastung durch ein auf der Oberkante 27 liegendes (beladenes Regalbrett) seinem mittleren und unteren Teil der der Wand zugewandten Rückseite an der Basisfläche 30a der U-förmigen Wandschiene 30 ab. Dadurch können mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Regalsystem hohe Traglasten erreicht werden.As shown in FIG. 3, the side protrusions 22 are disposed in an upper rear area near the upper edge 27 and the rear upper corner 28 of the support member 20. Thus, the support element 20 held on its "pinched" projections 22 is supported by its upper and lower part of the wall-facing rear side against the base surface 30a of the U-shaped wall rail 30 when loaded by a shelf (loaded shelf). As a result, high bearing loads can be achieved with the shelving system according to the invention.

Ein in Horizontalposition an der Wandschiene fixiertes Tragelement 20 kann, wie in Figur 4c) durch einen Pfeil schematisch dargestellt ist, durch Hochkippen des vorderen, der Wand abgewandten Endes aus seiner Verankerung gelöst werden und dann beliebig in der Schiene nach oben und unten verschoben werden. Der zum Lösen des Tragelements erforderliche Winkel kann dabei beispielsweise zwischen 30 und 45 Grad liegen.A support element 20 fixed in horizontal position on the wall rail can, as shown schematically in FIG. 4c) by an arrow, be released from its anchoring by tilting the front end facing away from the wall and then displaced upwards and downwards as desired in the rail. The angle required to release the support element can be, for example, between 30 and 45 degrees.

Um die einfache Lösbarkeit und Fixierbarkeit des Regalbodenträgers zu gewährleisten, ist dieser an seiner oberen hinteren Ecke 28 (Figur 3) abgerundet, vorzugsweise kreisbogenförmig ausgebildet. Ebenso sind die in die C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitte 32 eingreifenden Vorderseitenabschnitte der Vorsprünge 22 abgerundet, beispielsweise halbkreisförmig ausgebildet.To ensure easy solubility and fixability of the shelf support, this is rounded at its upper rear corner 28 (Figure 3), preferably circular arc-shaped. Likewise, the engaging in the C-shaped end portions 32 front side portions of the projections 22 are rounded, for example, formed semicircular.

Figur 5 zeigt einen Regalbodenträger 20, der in seiner Horizontalstellung mittels der Vorsprünge 22 in einer Wandschiene 30 fixiert ist. Bei dem in Figur 5 gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel weist die Wandschiene zusätzlich nach aussen weisende Abstützflächen 35 auf, an welchen sich die beiden Seitenwangen 26a, 26b des vorzugsweise U-förmig ausgebildeten Regalbodenträgers 20 abstützenn, um eine weiter verbesserte Seitenstabilisierung des Tragelements zu erreichen.Figure 5 shows a shelf support 20 which is fixed in its horizontal position by means of the projections 22 in a wall rail 30. In the embodiment shown in Figure 5, the wall rail in addition to outwardly facing support surfaces 35 on which the two side walls 26a, 26b of the preferably U-shaped shelf support 20 abstützenn to achieve a further improved lateral stabilization of the support member.

Ein wesentlicher Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Halterungsanordnung ist die Fixierung der Vorsprünge 22 in den C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitten 32, wodurch eine Verformung oder ein "Ausweichen" der Vorsprünge 22 nach innen verhindert werden kann.A significant advantage of the mounting arrangement according to the invention is the fixation of the projections 22 in the C-shaped end sections 32, whereby Deformation or "dodging" of the projections 22 inwardly can be prevented.

Um die Regalbodenträger preiswert herstellen zu können, ist es möglich, die Vorsprünge 22 durch Stanzen und Verformen aus den beiden Seitenwangen 26a, 26b des Tragelements 20 zu formen.In order to produce the shelf supports inexpensively, it is possible to form the projections 22 by punching and deforming the two side walls 26a, 26b of the support member 20.

Gemäß einem nicht dargestellten weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel weist die Wandschiene 30.einen Entnahmeabschnitt 38 auf, an welchem keine Abschlussabschnitte 32 vorhanden sind. Dadurch wird es möglich, die Regalbodenträger 20 an dem Entnahmeabschnitt "einzufädeln" oder zu entnehmen.According to a further exemplary embodiment, not shown, the wall rail 30 has a removal section 38 on which no end sections 32 are present. This makes it possible to "thread" or remove the shelf supports 20 at the removal section.

Die Erfindung liefert somit ein Regalsystem bestehend aus den Grundelementen Wandschiene und Tragelement, welches eine stufenlose Positionierung der Tragelemente bei gleichzeitig hoher Tragkraft ermöglicht. Die Halterung der Vorsprünge 22 des Regalbodenträgers 20 in den C-förmigen Abschlussabschnitten 32 an der U-Profil-förmigen Wandschiene 30 ermöglicht ein einfaches Lösen und Fixieren des Regalbodenträgers durch Hochkippen in Schräglage bzw. Herunterkippen in Horizontalposition. Da für die erfindungsgemäße stufenlose Fixierung keine beweglichen Teile erforderlich sind, können die Herstellungskosten gering gehalten werden.The invention thus provides a shelving system consisting of the basic elements wall rail and support element, which allows continuous positioning of the support elements with high load capacity. The mounting of the projections 22 of the shelf support 20 in the C-shaped end portions 32 on the U-shaped wall rail 30 allows easy release and fixing of the shelf support by tilting in an inclined position or tilting down in horizontal position. Since no moving parts are required for the stepless fixing according to the invention, the production costs can be kept low.
