Description

Gebiet der ErfindungField of the invention

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Regalsystem, bestehend aus an der Wand befestigbaren oder freistehenden Schienen, die in regelmäßigen Abständen Aussparungen aufweisen, sowie einhängbaren Tragelementen für Regalböden oder dergleichen, welche wenigstens einen Befestigungsvorsprung zum Eingriff in die Aussparungen in den Wandschienen aufweisen.The invention relates to a shelving system consisting of wall-mountable or freestanding rails having recesses at regular intervals, as well as attachable support elements for shelves or the like, which have at least one fastening projection for engagement in the recesses in the wall rails.

Verwandter Stand der TechnikRelated prior art

Es gibt eine fast unüberschaubare Anzahl von Regalsystemen, bei denen Träger für Fachböden in Säulen oder Wandschienen eingehängt werden. Solche Regalsysteme finden im privaten und gewerblichen Bereich Anwendung. Für beide Bereiche gibt es Normen, Regeln und Vorschriften, mit denen eine für den Anwender sichere Verwendung erreicht werden soll.There is an almost unmanageable number of shelving systems in which shelves for shelves are hung in columns or wall rails. Such shelving systems are used in the private and commercial sector. For both areas there are standards, rules and regulations with which a safe use for the user should be achieved.

Alle bekannten Regalkonstruktionen dieser Art haben gemein, dass die Tragelemente, die leicht und problemlos an den freistehenden oder an der Wand befestigten Schienen eingehängt werden können, eben auch relativ leicht wieder ausgehängt werden können. In einer für Möbel relevanten EN wird diesem Zustand durch eine spezielle Prüfung Rechnung getragen. Bei dieser Prüfung wird, an einem montierten Regal, der Fachboden an seiner vorderen Kante mit einer definierten Kraft angehoben.All known shelving constructions of this type have in common that the support elements that can be hung easily and easily on the free-standing or mounted on the wall rails, just as easily can be posted again. In an EN relevant to furniture this condition is taken into account by a special test. In this test, on a mounted shelf, the shelf is raised at its front edge with a defined force.

Einige Hersteller von Regalsystemen haben diesem Umstand Rechnung getragen, indem sie die Haken, mit welchen die Träger in das Rohr oder die Schiene eigehängt werden, so geformt haben, dass ein unbeabsichitgtes Aushängen erschwert wird Keine der bekannten Lösungen ist jedoch wirklich sicher, da meist bereits ab einem Kippwinkel von 30 Grad ein unbeabsichitgtes Aushängen nicht mehr sicher verhindert wirdSome manufacturers of shelving systems have taken this fact into account by the hooks with which the carriers are eiggehängt in the pipe or rail, have shaped so that uninhibited hanging is difficult However, the known solutions is not really safe, as already from a tilt angle of 30 degrees uninhibited hanging is no longer reliably prevented

Zur Lösung dieses Problems wurde in dem Gebrauchsmuster DE 202 19 572 U1 ein horizontales Tragelement für ein Regalsystem vorgeschlagen, welches mit einem Haken zum Einhängen in einen Halteschlitz einer Wandschiene versehen ist, welcher Haken T-förmig mit einem Steg und zwei auskragenden Schenkeln ausgebildet ist, wobei die Länge des Hakens die Länge des Schlitzes in der Wandschiene übertrifft. Bei einem Hochkippen des Tragelements verhakt sich der T-förmige Haken daher in dem Befestigungsschlitz, so dass eine Ablösung des Tragelements von der Wandschiene verhindert wird. Trifft ein vertikaler Stoß das Tragelement in seinem wandnahen Bereich, so dass das Tragelement vertikal nach oben bewegt wird, besteht jedoch weiterhin die Gefahr eines unbeabsichtigten Aushängens.To solve this problem was in the utility model DE 202 19 572 U1 a horizontal support member for a shelving system proposed, which is provided with a hook for hanging in a retaining slot of a wall rail, which hook is T-shaped with a web and two cantilevered legs, wherein the length of the hook exceeds the length of the slot in the wall rail , When the support element tilts up, the T-shaped hook therefore hooks in the fastening slot, so that detachment of the support element from the wall rail is prevented. Hits a vertical shock, the support member in its near-wall region, so that the support member is moved vertically upwards, however, there is still the risk of unintentional unhooking.

Zusammenfassung der ErfindungSummary of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Regalsystem bestehend aus vertikalen Schienen und einhängbaren Tragelementen zu schaffen, bei dem ein sicherer Aushängeschutz auch bei vertikalen Stößen und bei größeren Kippwinkeln der Regalbretter bzw. Tragelemente gewährleistet ist. Dabei soll die leichte Handhabbarkeit und Montage möglichst wenig beeinträchtigt werden.The invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a shelving system consisting of vertical rails and suspended support elements, in which a safe Aushängeschutz is ensured even with vertical shocks and larger tilt angles of the shelves or support elements. The ease of handling and assembly should be affected as little as possible.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe erfindungsgemäß dadurch, dass nicht nur der Befestigungsvorprung des Tragelements eine spezielle Form aufweist, sondern auch der Schlitz, in welchen der Befestigungsvorprung eingehängt wird, in seiner Länge angepaßt ist.The object is achieved according to the invention in that not only the attachment projection of the support member has a special shape, but also the slot, in which the mounting projection is mounted, is adapted in its length.

Die Erfindung schlägt daher ein Regalsystem bestehend aus vertikalen Schienen und in diese einhängbaren Tragelementen mit einer Auflagefläche zur Aufnahme von Regalböden oder dgl. vor, wobei die Schienen vertikal voneinander beabstandete Aussparungen aufweisen, in welche die Tragelemente jeweils mittels einem an ihrem hinteren, der Schiene zugewandten Ende angeformten Befestigungsvorsprung einhängbar sind, wobei der Radius R und die Länge L der Aussparungen so gewählt sind, dass das Tragelement bis zu einem Hochklappwinkel von 60 Grad gegenüber der Horizontalen von dem Befestigungsvorsprung in der Schiene gehalten wird.The invention therefore proposes a shelving system consisting of vertical rails and in these suspension elements with a support surface for receiving shelves or the like. Before, the rails vertically spaced apart recesses, in which the support elements each by means of one at its rear, the rail facing End formed mounting projection are suspended, wherein the radius R and the length L of the recesses are selected so that the support member up to a Folding angle of 60 degrees relative to the horizontal is held by the fastening projection in the rail.

Beim Anheben des vorderen Endes des Regalbretts bzw. des Tragelements gleitet der konvexe viertelkreisförmige Abschnitt des Befestigungsvorprungs des Tragelements entlang der Innenkante der vertikalen Öffnung in der Schiene, wobei in jeder Kippwinkelposition bis zu einem Winkel von 60 Grad oder mehr die jeweilige vertikale Ausdehnung des Befestigungsvorprungs größer ist als diejenige des Halteschlitzes in der Schiene, so das das Tragelement nicht herausfallen kann.When raising the front end of the shelf, the convex quarter-circle portion of the mounting protrusion of the support member slides along the inner edge of the vertical opening in the rail, wherein at each tilt angle position up to an angle of 60 degrees or more, the respective vertical extension of the mounting protrusion greater is than that of the retaining slot in the rail, so that the support element can not fall out.

Die Länge L liegt dabei vorzugsweise zwischen 1,03 x R und 1,25 x R, insbesondere zwischen 1,05 x R und 1,10 x R.The length L is preferably between 1.03 × R and 1.25 × R, in particular between 1.05 × R and 1.10 × R.

Vorzugsweise liegt der Mittelpunkt des viertelkreisförmig ausgebildeten Abschnitts dabei unterhalb der durch die Auflagefläche des Tragelements gebildeten Horizontalebene und im eigehängten Zusatand des Tragelements im Bereich der durch die Innenseite der Schiene gebildeten Vertikalebene liegt. Dadurch kann ein besonders sicherer Aushängeschutz bis zu Kippwinkeln von 75 Grad oder sogar bis über 75 Grad erreicht werden.In this case, the center of the quarter-circle-shaped section is preferably below the horizontal plane formed by the support surface of the support element and in the peripheral state of the support element in the region of the vertical plane formed by the inside of the rail. This makes it possible to achieve particularly safe skidding protection up to tipping angles of 75 degrees or even over 75 degrees.

An den viertelkreisförmig ausgebildeten Abschnitt des Befestigungsvorsprungs schließt sich vorzugsweise ein oberer Abschlußabschnitt an, der ebenfalls viertelkreisförmig (und sich dann zu einem Halbkreis mit gemeinsamem Mittelpunkt ergänzt) oder auch rechteckförmig o.ä. ausgebildet sein kann.To the quarter-circle-shaped portion of the fastening projection is preferably followed by an upper end portion, which also quarter-circle (and then complements a semicircle with a common center) or rectangular or similar. can be trained.

Der Befestigungsvorsprung ist vorteilhaft am hinteren oberen Ende des Tragelements angeformt. Dabei kann das Tragelement im Bereich einer unteren Abstützfläche ein zweites Befestigungselement aufweisen.The fastening projection is advantageously integrally formed on the rear upper end of the support element. In this case, the support element may have a second fastening element in the region of a lower support surface.

Die vertikalen Schienen können Wandschienen oder auch freistehende Regalsäulen sein.The vertical rails can be wall rails or freestanding shelf columns.

Die Tragelemente können dabei flach ausgebildet sein und die Schienen eine Reihe gleichmäßig vertikal voneinander beabstandeter Öffnungen aufweisen oder die Tragelemente können alternativ als Profilteile mit zwei nebeneinander angeformten Befestigungsvorsprüngen ausgebildet sein, wobei die Schienen dann zwei parallele Reihen gleichmäßig vertikal voneinander beabstandeter Öffnungen aufweisen.The support members may be formed flat and the rails have a series of uniformly vertically spaced openings or the support members may alternatively be formed as profile parts with two side by side molded mounting projections, the rails then have two parallel rows of uniformly vertically spaced apart openings.

Detaillierte Beschreibung der ErfindungDetailed description of the invention

Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden anhand von konkreten Ausführungsbeispielen im Detail erläutert.The invention will be explained below with reference to specific embodiments in detail.

Die Fig. 1 bis 3 zeigen in Detailansicht ein erstes, zweites bzw. drittes Ausführungsbeispiel des erfindungsgemäßen Regalsystems, wobei die linksseitige Darstellung das Tragelement 20 in hochgeklappter Position (Fig. 1a, 2a, 3a) und die rechtsseitige Darstellung in horizontaler Tragposition zeigen (Fig. 1b, 2b, und 3b).The Fig. 1 to 3 show in detail a first, second or third embodiment of the shelf system according to the invention, wherein the left-hand representation of the support member 20 in the raised position ( Fig. 1a, 2a, 3a ) and the right-hand representation in a horizontal carrying position ( Fig. 1b, 2b, and 3b ).

Die Fig. 4 bis 7 zeigen das erste, zweite bzw. dritte Ausführungsbeispiel in Gesamtansicht in verschiedenen Darstellungen.The Fig. 4 to 7 show the first, second and third embodiment in an overall view in various representations.

Das erfindungsgemäße Regalsystem besteht insgesamt aus wenigstens einer Schiene 10, die sowohl als an einer Wand befestigbare Wandschiene oder als freistehende (runde oder beispielsweise vierkantige) Regalsäule, etwa für Regale in Einzelhandelsgeschäften, ausgebildet sein kann, und einem oder mehreren Tragelementen 20 mit einer Auflagefläche 28 zum Auflegen eines (nicht dargestellten) Regalbrettes oder dgl. Am hinteren, der Schiene 10 zugewandten Ende weist das Tragelement 20 einen oberen Befestigungsvorsprung 22 zum Einhängen des Tragelements in vertikale Schlitze 12 auf, die in regelmäßigen Abständen in der Schiene 10 ausgeformt sind. Vorzugsweise weist das Tragelement 20 im Bereich einer unteren Abstützfläche 26 einen zweiten, unteren Befestigungsvorsprung 25 auf, der in einen benachbarten Schlitz in der Schiene 10 einhängbar ist. Der untere Befestigungsvorsprung 25 kann dabei wie im ersten Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung eine Hakenform oder alternativ wie wie im zweiten und dritten Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung eine Rechteckform aufweisen.The shelving system according to the invention comprises a total of at least one rail 10, which can be mounted both as a wall rail fastened to a wall or as a free-standing (round or for example quadrangular) shelf column, such as shelves in At the rear, the rail 10 end facing the support member 20 has an upper mounting projection 22 for suspending the support member into vertical slots 12, which are formed in the rail 10 at regular intervals. In the region of a lower support surface 26, the support element 20 preferably has a second, lower attachment projection 25, which can be suspended in an adjacent slot in the rail 10. As in the first exemplary embodiment of the invention, the lower fastening projection 25 can have a hook shape or alternatively, as in the second and third exemplary embodiments of the invention, a rectangular shape.

Der obere Befestigungsvorsprung 22 wiest einen ersten konvexen, viertelkreisförmigen Abschnitt 23 und einen sich daran anschließenden oberen Abschlußabschnitt 24 auf, welcher ebenfalls viertelkreisförmig ausgebildet sein kann (und sich dann mit dem unteren viertelkreisförmigen Abschnitt 23 zu einem Halbkreis mit Mittelpunkt M ergänzt), oder alternativ rechteckförmig, dreieckig oder dgl. ausgebildet sein. Wie insbesondere in den Fig. 1a, 2a, und 3a dargestellt ist, gleitet beim Anheben des vorderen Endes des Tragelements 10 der konvexe viertelkreisförmige Abschnitt 23 entlang der Innenkante des vertikalen Schlitzes 12 in der Schiene 10, wobei bei jedem Kippwinkel bis zu einem bestimmten Maximalwinkel die jeweilige vertikale Erstreckung des Befestigungsvorprungs 22 größer ist als die Innenlänge des Halteschlitzes 12 in der Schiene, so dass das Tragelement 20 bis zu einem Winkel von 60 Grad oder mehr nicht herausfallen kann.The upper attachment projection 22 has a first convex quarter-circle portion 23 and an adjoining upper termination portion 24, which may also be quarter-circle-shaped (and then complemented with the lower quarter-circle portion 23 into a semicircle with center M), or alternatively rectangular , triangular or the like. Be formed. As in particular in the Fig. 1a, 2a, and 3a is shown when lifting the front end of the support member 10, the convex quarter-circular portion 23 slides along the inner edge of the vertical slot 12 in the rail 10, wherein at each tilt angle up to a certain maximum angle, the respective vertical extent of Befestigungsvorprungs 22 is greater than the inner length the retaining slot 12 in the rail, so that the support member 20 can not fall out to an angle of 60 degrees or more.

Der Mittelpunkt M des konvexen viertelkreisförmigen Abschnitts 23 liegt dabei ein wenig (beispielsweise 1 bis 2 mm) unterhalb der durch die Auflagefläche 28 des Tragelements 20 gebildeten Horizontalebene. Dadurch wird gewährleistet, dass der Abstand der Außenseite des konvexen viertelkreisförmigen Abschnitts 23 zur unteren Innenkante des Halteschlitzes 12 von beinahe null in Horizontalposition bei zunehmendem Kippwinkel geringfügig zunimmt. Außerdem liegt der Mittelpunkt M des konvexen viertelkreisförmigen Abschnitts 23 im eigehängten Zusatand des Tragelements im Bereich der durch die Innenseite der Schiene gebildeten Vertikalebene, die der Ebene der rückseitigen Abstützfläche(n) 27 des Befestigungsvorprungs 22 entspricht. Der Mittelpunkt M liegt somit in der gleichen Vertikalebene wie die rückseitigen Abstützfläche(n) 27 des Befestigungsvorprungs 22. Dadurch liegt der Drehpunkt D des Tragelements 20 beim Hochklappen 1 bis 2 mm senkrecht oberhalb des Mittelpunktes M des konvexen viertelkreisförmigen Abschnitts des Befestigungsvorsprungs. Diese vorteilhafte Positionsbeziehung, die ein reibungsloses Hochklappen des Tragelements erlaubt, ohne dass dieses herausfällt, ist in der vergrößerten Darstellung der Fig. 9 besonders gut zu erkennen.The center M of the convex quarter-circle-shaped portion 23 is slightly (for example, 1 to 2 mm) below the horizontal plane formed by the support surface 28 of the support member 20. This ensures that the distance of the outside of the convex quarter-circle portion 23 to the lower inner edge of the retaining slot 12 from almost zero in the horizontal position at Increasing tilt angle increases slightly. In addition, the center M of the convex quarter-circle portion 23 is in the eighängante Zusatand of the support member in the region formed by the inside of the rail vertical plane corresponding to the plane of the rear support surface (s) 27 of Befestigungsvorprungs 22. The center M thus lies in the same vertical plane as the rear support surface (s) 27 of the attachment projection 22. As a result, the pivot point D of the support member 20 is 1 to 2 mm vertically above the center M of the convex quarter-circle portion of the mounting projection when folding. This advantageous positional relationship, which allows a smooth folding up of the support element without it falling out, is in the enlarged view of Fig. 9 particularly easy to recognize.

Die Fig. 7 und 8 zeigen in Perspektivdarstellung das zweite bzw. Ausführungsbeispiel des erfindungsgemäßen Regalsystems in horizontaler Tragposition (Fig. 7a), in hochgeklappter Position (Fig. 7b), sowie in ausgehängter Position (Fig. 7c).

It can be seen that the support member 20 solves only at tilt angles of 60 degrees or more from the retaining slot 12 of the rail 10, whereby a very good Aushängeschutz is guaranteed.

Bei dem ersten und dritten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Tragelemente 20 als flache Bauteile, beispielsweise aus Stahlblech, gefertigt und sind in eine Wandschiene 10 mit einer einfachen Reihe von gleichmäßig beabstandeten Schlitzen 12 einhängbar. Bei dem zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Tragelemente 20 dagegen als Profilteile mit zwei nebeneinander angeformten Befestigungsvorsprüngen ausgebildet, wobei die Schienen 10 dann zwei parallele Reihen gleichmäßig vertikal voneinander beabstandeter Öffnungen 12 zum Einhängen der Tragelemente aufweisen.In the first and third embodiments, the support members 20 are made as flat components, such as sheet steel, and are in a wall rail 10 with a simple series of evenly spaced slots 12 can be suspended. In the second embodiment, however, the support members 20 are formed as profile parts with two side by side molded mounting projections, the rails 10 then have two parallel rows of uniformly vertically spaced apart openings 12 for suspending the support members.

Darüber hinaus unterscheiden sich die Ausführungsbeispiele in der Form des Befestigungsvorsprungs 22, der im ersten Ausführungsbeispiel hakenförmig mit einer unteren Einkerbung 29 (siehe Fig. 9a) geformt ist, die beim zweiten und dritten Ausführungsbeispiel nicht vorhanden ist.Moreover, the embodiments differ in the form of the fastening projection 22, which in the first embodiment with hook-shaped a lower notch 29 (see Fig. 9a ) is formed, which is not present in the second and third embodiments.

Der Erfindung schlägt so ein Regalsystem bestehend aus vertikalen Schienen und einhängbaren Tragelementen vor, bei dem ein sicherer Aushängeschutz auch bei größeren Kippwinkeln der Regalbretter bzw. Tragelemente erreicht wird. Einfache Handhabbarkeit und Montage bleiben dabei jedoch gewährleistet.The invention proposes such a shelving system consisting of vertical rails and suspended support elements, in which a safe Aushängeschutz is achieved even with larger tilt angles of the shelves or support elements. Easy handling and installation remain guaranteed.
