Definitions

• the present invention relates to a storage device with horizontal shelves and vertically movable for a container of a predetermined internal height and open on the upper face.
• a folded position obtained by folding the sliding means in which the height of the device is less than the predetermined internal height of the container so that at least one shelf divides the interior volume of said container into several storage intervals and that each storage interval allows the storage of at least one content
• the device comprises several shelves, interconnected by at least one flexible connecting element, the highest shelf being connected to the top of each sliding means.
• the sliding means comprises a brake holding it in the unfolded position.
• the use of the device is thus facilitated by freeing the user from holding the device in the unfolded position.
• At least one shelf comprises at least one orifice through which a sliding means freely passes.
• FIG. 5 is a detail view in section of the junction between a tubular element and a shelf of the device of Figure 4;
• FIG. 9 is a front view of the device of Figure 8 in the folded position
• FIG. 15 is a front view in unfolded position of the device of Figure 13;
• FIG. 25 is an isometric view of the device according to a tenth embodiment of the invention.
• FIG. 28 is a front view of the device of Figure 25 in the folded position
• FIG. 31 is an isometric view of the device of FIG. 29 in the folded position and
• FIG. 32 is an isometric view of the device of FIG. 29 in the folded position.
• the identical or similar elements of the different embodiments bear the same references.
• the connecting elements 7 create larger offsets for the lower shelves 7, which allows to generate, in the folded position of the telescopic supports 3, and despite the juxtaposition of the upper ends of the sliding segments to which they are connected, intervals between the surfaces. shelves. Thus the storage intervals between the shelves are generated, for the folded position of the device, by the differences in progressive lengths between their respective connecting elements.
• the following combined data determine the elevation heights of the different shelves 5 and the heights of their respective intervals in the unfolded position of the telescopic supports 3: lengths of the connecting elements 7; length of the telescopic supports 3 and number of their respective sliding segments; choice of sliding segments to which they are connected.
• the device is adapted to a container 1 of cylindrical shape, it comprises a single telescopic support 3 fixed to the center of the container 1, the shelves 5 are disk-shaped.
• the upper shelf 5 is fixed to the top of the telescopic support and serves as a lid by closing the container in the folded position of the device, Figure 28, it comprises a handle 39 facilitating its grip to open the container 1 which has hooks 41 allowing locking the lid.
• the intermediate shelf is connected to the top of a sliding segment by a rigid connecting element 7 of hollow tubular shape, it is provided with a central orifice 15.
• the telescopic support 3 passes through the orifice 15 and the connecting element 7 which allow by their width of inner diameter, free sliding of the lower sliding segments.
• Figure 27 shows the junction between the connecting element 7 of Figure 28, the intermediate shelf 5 and the telescopic support 3.
• the device comprises four telescopic legs 3 fixed on a horizontal plane 33 and fixed by their tops to a shelf 5.
• the intermediate shelf 5 has holes through which the telescopic legs 3 to which it is connected by tubular connecting elements 7.
• the intermediate shelf and the plane 33 have flanks 17.
• the device is functional without a container.
• Figure 31 the device is positioned in a container 1 open on a side face.
• Figure 32 shows a variant of the device of Figure 30 which has no sidewall and which is covered by a container 1 open on the underside.
• Connecting bars join the tops of the sliding means and each shelf is connected by a connecting member at the top of a sliding segment of each sliding means.
• the device has a shelf directly attached to the tops of the sliding means and connecting bars connecting the tops of the sliding means to allow said shelf to be made of a rigid but thin material to provide a reduced weight.
• a single connecting element made of flexible material such as a woven fabric is fixed on the edges of the side and rear sides of adjacent shelves, and makes the connection between said shelves, it also serves as a side for the shelves.
