Definitions

  • the invention is related to a rack, in particular a drying rack, comprising at least one substantially flat frame as well as slender bearing elements extending between mutually opposite sides of the frame, wherein the mutually opposite sides of the frame each comprise a profiled section which determines a chamber which ends in a slot-shaped aperture, wherein the bars are introduced into the slot-shaped aperture of each profiled section, and wherein securing elements are provided in the chamber of each profiled section by means of which in each case one end of the bearing elements is fixed.
  • Such a rack is disclosed in FR-A-2644802 .
  • the bars thereof are assembled in pairs, thus forming frames.
  • These frames are supported within the chambers by means of wheels whereby the frames can be moved to and fro.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an improved rack wherein the bars are fixed. This object is achieved in that the bearing elements are fixed on each end between two adjacent securing elements.
  • the securing elements may also be used to bring about regular intervals between the bearing elements.
  • the securing elements may be placed against one another in pairs by their end edges in a series. The distance between the end edges of a securing element then determines the distance between the bearing elements. If an end edge or both end edges of each securing element has/have a recess, it is possible to accommodate an end of a securing element in such a manner that a virtually invisible attachment becomes possible.
  • both end edges comprise part of the recess, for example half, in which recesses of adjoining end edges the bearing element is accommodated in a tight-fitting manner.
  • the bearing elements preferably comprise a hook on the ends, which hook is hooked behind a securing element.
  • a cavity may be provided on that side of the securing element which is turned away from the bearing element, which space accommodates the hook.
  • the securing elements may be provided with connecting means by means of which the securing elements are connected to one another in pairs. The bearing element with the hook is then securely fixed between the two securing elements which are joined to one another, thereby improving the reliability of the structure.
  • connections between the securing elements can also be achieved in various ways, such as by click-fit connections and the like.
  • the connections have a projection at one end of the securing elements and a corresponding space at the opposite end of the securing elements.
  • the mutually facing surfaces of the projections and the spaces of neighbouring securing elements preferably have mating connecting means.
  • the mutually facing surfaces of the projections and the spaces of neighbouring securing elements may form a cavity which accommodates the hook.
  • the securing elements can be accommodated in the chamber of the profiled section, these connecting means are reliably secured against release.
  • the chamber of the profiled section preferably forms an undercut area, in such a manner that the largest part of the securing elements is accommodated in the profiled section in a barely visible manner.
  • the visible part of the securing element is preferably designed as a ledge which is at the same level as the external surface of the profiled section. As a result of said ledges, the rack is given a smooth appearance due to the fact that the attachment means do not result in a noticeable interruption of the contour.
  • the profiled sections may be made of metal, such as aluminium, and the securing elements may be made of plastic, although these components may also be made of other suitable materials. Thus, the profiled sections may, for example, also be made of plastic.
  • the profiled sections may be identical. Furthermore, supports may be provided which are directed backwards at an angle on the mutually opposite sides of the frame.
  • the drying rack according to the invention illustrated in Fig. 1 comprises the frame denoted overall by reference numeral 1, which in turn comprises three profiled sections 2, 3, which are connected to one another by corner pieces 4.
  • the supports 5 are attached to the profiled sections 2 of the frame 1 by means of the sliding pieces 6.
  • the bearing elements which, in this example, are in the form of bars 7, extend between the mutually opposite parallel profiled sections 2.
  • the profiled sections 2 have the cross section illustrated in Fig. 4 which is substantially C-shaped.
  • the profiled sections 2 have a recess 8 extending in the longitudinal direction which gives access to an undercut chamber 9.
  • the chamber 9 is delimited by the body 10, which extends inside the C-shape of the profiled section, with two flanges 11 extending freely from the body 10 to the recess 8.
  • the torsional rigidity can also be increased by increasing the thickness of the body 10.
  • the securing elements 14 illustrated in Figs. 5 and 8 are pushed into the chamber 9, as determined by the flanges 11 and the body 10.
  • Said securing elements 14 have a cross section which corresponds to the cross section of the chamber 9 of the profiled section 2, as is illustrated in Fig. 4 .
  • the securing elements 14 each have a ledge 15 which is inserted into the slot 8, in such a manner that the external surface 16 of the ledge is at the same level as the external surface of the flanges 11.
  • the bars 7 are attached to said securing elements 14 in the manner illustrated in Figs. 6 and 7 .
  • Each securing element 14 has two end faces 17, 18 which are provided with a semicircular passage 19 and 20, respectively.
  • the lip 21 which is provided with elevations 22 which enclose a semicircular attachment recess 23, extends with respect to one of the end faces, more precisely end face 20.
  • the passage 19 on the opposite surface 17 adjoins a likewise semicircular attachment recess 24 which faces in the direction opposite to that of the semicircular attachment recess 23 which is situated between the elevations 22 on the surface 18.
  • each bars 7 has a hook 25 which, as is illustrated in the view from Fig. 7 , is hooked into the semicircular attachment recess 24 via the passage 19 in the end face 17.
  • the lip 21 of the subsequent securing element 14, which is still to be fitted, is positioned over the hook 25, with the elevations 22 of the subsequent securing element 14 still to be fitted being click-fitted into the depressions 27.
  • the hook 25 is thus firmly enclosed by the two semicircular attachment recesses 23, 24 of two securing elements 14 which are connected to one another.
  • the frame 1 is slidably suspended from the supports 5 by means of the sliding pieces 6.
  • These have a cross section which is in the shape of a C and has dimensions such that the profiled section 2 is accommodated in a tightly fitting manner in a sliding piece 6.
  • each sliding piece is to this end provided with a slot 26.
  • one of the edges of the slot has grooves 27, by means of which the sliding piece is secured with respect to the bars 7.
  • the sliding piece can be displaced with respect to the profiled section 2 and the bars 7, with the bars in each case click-fitting into the grooves in order to define the locked positions of the supports with respect to the frame 1.
  • the drying rack illustrated in Fig. 1 can be suspended from a railing, banister or the like by means of the hooks 32, in which case the stops 30 which are situated on the free ends of the profiled sections 2 come to lie against the vertical wall of the railing, banister or the like.
  • the supports 5 are attached to the sliding pieces 6 by means of hinges 33, in such a manner that the supports can be folded flat onto the frame 1 after use.
  • Fig. 2 shows a part of the drying rack according to a second variant, with the corner pieces 4 which connect the profiled sections 2 and 3 to one another each having a support 29.
  • the opposite ends of the profiled sections 2 are provided with hinging parts 28.
