Description

Office partition and similar elements with shelf supports

The invention relates to a partition element with shelf supports according to the preamble of claim 1.

The partition elements for office design are generally made of a support structure comprising vertical posts and crossbars. These partition elements, whose support structure is covered by panels, serve for a variable design of the workplace. An essential criterion of such partition elements are shelf supports that serve to withstand shelf panels.

With respect to an already known partition element (US-PS 5,454,638) said shelf supports have shelving arms that are provided with hooks arranged one on top of the other and that can be hooked on the vertical posts at different vertical levels. Therefore, said vertical posts are provided with hook openings that are provided in the spaced apart posts in an equidistant manner. The formation of a multitude of hook openings weakens the structure of the vertical posts and in particular gives rise to an undesirable appearance, since said openings are visible from the outside. An additional disadvantage is that the mounting of the shelf arms on the vertical posts is limited, however, they have to be mounted together in a predetermined side space. That requires additional measures, if the shelf panels that are to be held by the shelf arms are going to have a different length. Comparable shelving arms are also produced, for example, from US-PS 5,769,247.

After all, shelf supports are known that can be fixed on vertical posts, whereby such shelf supports are not provided with hook openings that are arranged one above the other. The fixing of the shelf supports is thus carried out by means of two fixing jaws that are held in the shelf support and are fixed by screws against the vertical posts, whereby said posts are provided with corresponding profiled tabs. Although hitch openings in the posts are therefore avoided, the assembly is complex and to adjust the shelf supports vertically, these fixing jaws must first be released, then adjusted to an appropriate height and then firmly tightened again. This also has the disadvantage that the shelf supports can only be fixed respectively on vertical posts which, however, with respect to the partition elements, are respectively mounted to each other in a predetermined space. In the case of using shelf panels, whose length is shorter than the space of the adjacent vertical posts of a partition element, additional measures must be taken.

It is also known (EP 0 707 814 A2) that supports for shelves that are supported on coupling bars, which are mounted on vertical posts of a partition element, must be provided. Said shelf supports have T-shaped guide heads for moving said shelf supports longitudinally to said bars to the desired position. Furthermore, said shelf support comprises shelving arms that are insertable at a desired height by means of insertion straps in insertion openings of said shelf support, whereby said openings are arranged on top one above the other. The assembly here is also complex, since the shelf supports have to be inserted by means of the lateral end portions of said bars, and therefore cannot be hooked from the outside. This complicates the additional change in the design of the work site of already mounted partition elements if, for example, such shelf supports must be mounted in a different position.

US 6,852,904 discloses an arrangement of panels with an arrangement of rails to accommodate work surfaces. The rail arrangement comprises an upper connection plate, a lower connection plate and connection supports.

The object of the invention is to create a partition element with supports for shelves that support shelves, which has a simple and stable structure, as well as a quick assembly and that is formed in such a way that an adaptation to a modified design of the place of Work is very possible.

This problem according to the invention is solved by means of the features of the characterization part of claim 1, whereby further developments for that purpose of the invention are characterized by means of the features of the dependent claims.

According to the invention, the partition element has shelf supports with shelf arms provided thereon, on which the shelf panels can be fixed. Each shelf support is formed by a fixing edge, on which the shelf arm is arranged. Said shelf support is fixed by means of engaging said fixing edge in a crossbar, which is part of the support structure of the partition element, whereby said support structure of vertical posts and crossbars are formed, which are arranged between the posts.

The fixing edge is formed as a coupling and insertion connection, whereby said fixing edge has in its upper end portion a coupling element, which is displaced against the fixing edge, formed in particular as a hookable flange with L-shape, which is displaced outwardly against the upper end portion of said fixing edge as well as protruding upwards. Such hookable flange allows coupling behind a groove provided in a crossbar, whereby said groove extends the entire length of said crossbar. For fixing the shelf support, it is kept inclined by this and the hooked flange is inserted into said groove. Then, the fixing edge is pivoted against the support structure, so that the hookable flange engages behind said groove. An insertion end is formed that projects outwardly in the lower end portion of said fixing edge, said insertion end engaging in the groove of a lower cross member when said fixing edge is pivoted. Therefore, said insertion end is compatible with the width of the groove to provide a stable and firm hold of the shelf support, when the hooked flange and the insertion end are inserted into two overlapping crossbars. In a further development of the invention, the insertion end with tapered or domed surfaces is provided, so that said insertion end is automatically centered, when inserted into the groove of the lower crossbar. Both the hookable flange and the insertion end thus enter into a groove formed behind the groove, whereby said groove is externally surrounded by ribs, surrounding each other the respective walls of the groove to the groove. . Therefore, the coupling of said engaging flange behind a slot wall is possible and a firm anchoring of the shelf support is provided. It is evident that the grooves and the groove behind said grooves in the crossbars are formed in the same manner for that purpose. In this way, supports for shelves can be hooked on overlapping crossbars of the partition element in any way. The space between the crossbars, which are arranged one on top of the other, is determined by this to engage the shelf supports, which means that the space between the crossbars adheres to the space between the engaging flange and the insertion end of an edge. for fixing the shelf support. This can be achieved by connecting adjacent crossbars by means of fixing side edges with a length corresponding to one unit.

Both the insertion end and the engaging flange protrude outwardly for that purpose by means of a part similar to a claw or root against the fixing edge, which is preferably compatible with the width of the crossbar groove. In addition, both the hooking element and the insertion end are arranged respectively on a shoulder formed in a fixing edge, said shoulder forming contact surfaces to make contact the fixing edge with the crossbar. After being hooked on the crossbars, the shelf supports are released from said crossbars, since the projections surround partial recovery recesses with each other.

In a preferred embodiment of the shelf support, the fixing edge comprises coupling holes separated from each other to allow the fixing of the shelving arm at the fixing edge at various graduated heights. In this way the fixation is carried out by means of screw connections or pinch bolts that engage in the coupling holes. With respect to this embodiment, the shelving arms are fixed to the fixing edge at a predetermined vertical level. If the shelving arm is to be arranged at a different height, the shelf supports are removed, the screw or clamp pin connections are removed and the shelving arms are fixed in other displaced coupling holes vertically Then, the shelf support can be reattached into a pair of crossbars that are arranged one above the other.

In a further embodiment the shelving arms can be adjusted vertically manually with respect to the fixing edge without having to remove the shelf supports from the partition element. Thus, the vertically adjustable shelving arm is arranged against the fixing edge by means of a coupling mechanism that is manually operated.

In this way, the fixing edge is provided with notches for this purpose, which are vertically separated, in the form of coupling ends and have at least one guide groove for slidably supporting the shelf arm with respect to said edge of fixation. For this, this shelf arm is provided with a guide element, which is complementary to the guide groove. This is why the coupling arm is inserted by means of the guide element in the guide groove of the fixing edge and the locking of the shelving arm in the desired position is carried out by means of at least one locking edge, which is provided on said shelf arm and that is lockable against a vertically displaced coupling end of said fixing edge. After releasing the immobilization edge, the shelving arm is movable with respect to said fixing edge to a different vertical position and is lockable by inserting the immobilization edge into a corresponding coupling end.

In a particularly preferred embodiment of the shelf support, the immobilization edge is formed on a manually operated actuation lever, which is pivotally arranged in the support element. Advantageously, said actuation lever therefore has support bolts that protrude laterally and the support element is provided with a receptacle chamber for said actuation lever, a chamber in which support grooves are provided for the support bolts. For this,

a pivotable support of the actuating lever is made by inserting said support bolts into said support grooves of the support element.

Advantageously, said actuation lever is formed and housed in the support element in such a way that the immobilization edge is pivotable depending on the weight and, therefore, automatically forced to its locked position. This can easily be achieved by the immobilization edge being formed with respect to the support bolts of the operating lever on one side and the operating handle of the operating lever being formed on the other side, whereby the handle is designed of drive so that it has a greater weight than the immobilization edge. Due to this, a torque is produced around said support bolt, to press down on the drive handle (clockwise) and to press and hold the locking edge in that way in the insertion position. with the coupling ends of the fixing edge. Alternatively, however, the immobilization edge may be resiliently pushed into the locked position or it may be lockable with individual immobilization.

For this purpose, the guide element of the shelving arm is preferably formed by two guide heads which are separated from each other in the support element of the shelving arm and which are separated from each other, whereby said guide heads are complementary to the guide groove in the fixing edge, shaped in particular with a T-shape.

In addition, the immobilization edge is offset inclined downwards and protruding outward with respect to the drive handle of the drive lever.

In a further embodiment for that purpose, a clamp can be provided insertable at the fixing edge, whereby said clamp is provided with a coupling hook. The shelf support can be locked against the crossbar after insertion of the clamp on the fixing edge. The coupling hook of said clamp for this is coupled in the groove of the crossbar, whereby the coupling hook is engaged behind one of the walls of the crossbar groove. In addition, the clamp can be provided with a coupling hook for coupling to the fixing edge. Said coupling hook is preferably resilient, so that after insertion of the clamp on the fixing edge the coupling hook is resiliently engaging behind a corresponding projection of the fixing edge and, therefore, coupling the clamp against the fixing edge. For this, said fixing edge has a coupling hole for insertion of the clamp in the area of the insertion end.

Therefore, according to the invention, a shelf support for a partition element is created, whereby said shelf support can also be easily hooked on the partition element by untrained personnel. For this reason, the shelf support hooked on the partition element is quickly and firmly held. However, the shelf support and, therefore, also a shelf panel that is fixed to the shelf can be moved at any time longitudinally to the crossbar to the desired working position. In addition, the shelf arm can be easily moved vertically with respect to the fixing edge, so that the shelf panel can also be mounted at the desired working height and that the position of the panel can be changed to the vertical position desired.

Fig. 1 shows the side view of a shelf support identified as 1 in general comprising an edge-fixing support 2 similar to a shelf arm 3 placed therein. The shelf arm 3 serves to support shelves not illustrated here.

Fig. 9 shows how such shelves 1 for shelves are housed in a partition element 4. The partition element 4 shown here only as an example comprises four crossbars 5, 6, 7, 8 separated one from the other that are connected by means of connecting lateral struts 9 to form a self-contained unit, or called a fence. This structure of crossbars 5 to 8 arranged one above the other is fixed by means of tie rods 9 connecting to the posts 10, of which only one is shown in Fig. 9, specifically the right hand post of the element 4 of partition wall. These crossbars 5 to 8 are formed as extended profiles, on whose opposite side faces there are continuous grooves 13 and 14, which are restricted by ribs 15 and 16 projecting inwards. As can be seen in Fig. 10, in the described embodiment the upper rib 16 projecting inward is shorter than the lower rib 15. As can be seen, the crossbars in the embodiment shown have a hollow profile of multiple chambers and are manufactured by extruding metal, especially aluminum. As a result, such a partition element in which the posts 10 are also composed of extruded profiles has a relatively rigid structure. The panels covering the spaces between crossbars adjacent to the front are not shown in Fig. 9. Such panels can be fixed to the crossbars by means of a clip.

The upper end of the fixing bracket 2 of the shelf support 1 has a hookable element 17, which has a hookable flange 18 projecting upwardly beyond the fixing bracket 2 which in the embodiment shown is aligned parallel to the longitudinal extension of the fixing bracket 2. This hookable element 17 allows the shelf support 1 to be inserted into a crossbar, whereby the hookable flange 18, for example, engages against the flange 16 projecting into the groove 14 (see Fig. 10) . For engagement, the shelf support 1 is tilted slightly to allow the engaging flange 18 to be inserted into the slot 14. The hookable flange 18 engages against the upper rib 16 and then is returned to the shelf support 1 from the inclined position to the vertical position to make contact with the crossbar. As shown especially with reference to Fig. 9, the hook element 17 has a neck piece 19, from which the hook flange 18 is projected upwards and whose height corresponds approximately to the width of the groove 14, so that, after the shelf support 1 has made contact with the crossbars, the support is held by the neck piece 19 without a large clearance upwards or downwards and, therefore, firmly to the crossbars. The neck piece 19 sits on a shoulder 20, which is formed at the upper end of the fixing support 2.

At the lower end of the fixing support 2 there is an insertion end 21 whose cross-section is formed for that purpose as the tooth of a cogwheel which is therefore provided with tapered or slightly curved sides 22. The end 21 of Insertion is projected from a shoulder 23 formed at the lower end of the fixing bracket 2. The interleaving of the projections 20 and 23 serves to create a recess identified as 24 between the projections which, as it were, leaves the panels hooked between the crossbars free, that is, saves the panels

at a distance, so that, seen from the side, the shelf supports only make contact with the crossbars from the front by means of the projections 20 and 23. Naturally, the dimension of the insertion end 21 is sized to the width of the groove 14, facilitating the curved or conical cross-sectional design of the insertion end the centering of the insertion end in the corresponding groove 14. The distance between the engaging element 17 and the insertion end 21 is naturally sized for the distance between adjacent crossbars, which is determined by the connection braces 9. As soon as the shelf support 1 is mounted by means of a hookable flange 18 in the groove 14 of an upper cross member 6 and the shelf support 1 is tilted back towards the crossbars, the insertion end 21 automatically grips the slot 14 of the crossbar 7 below, as can be seen by reference to Fig. 9. As a result, the shelf support 1 is firmly held, but remains laterally movable in the slots 14 of two adjacent crossbars 6 and 7 .

As shown in Fig. 5, the side of the fixing bracket 2 opposite the hook-up and connectable element 17, 21 has two guide projections 24 and 25 along its length, between which the shelf arm 3 is guided . In the embodiment shown, the shelf arm 3 is essentially L-shaped and has a support member 26 that forms the L-member of the shelf arm 3. As can be seen in Fig. 3, this support element has a central projection 27 that serves as a guide rail and is coupled between the guide projections 24 and 25.

The illustrated embodiment shows a shelf support 1, in which the shelf arm 3, that is, along the fixing bracket 2, can be adjusted vertically in stages. For this, the fixing support 2 is provided with holes 28 separated one above the other and the support element 26 of the shelf arm 3 in Fig. 1 has openings 29, indicated by broken lines, which are practiced as blind holes. As can be seen, the coupling holes 28 of the fixing support 2 are equally spaced apart and provision is made in the support element 26 for two holes 29 whose separation is twice that of the coupling holes 28. The desired vertical position of the shelf arm 3 is determined before the shelf support 1 is inserted into the partition element by properly aligning the shelf arm 3 with the fixing bracket 2 and by inserting two screws therefrom. middle of the coupling holes 28, so that the shelf arm 3 is screwed correspondingly to the fixing bracket 2. If the vertical position of the shelf arm 3 with respect to the fixing bracket 2 is to be adjusted, the shelf support 1 is simply removed from the crossbars, the screws are removed and then the shelf arm 3 is aligned to the desired height with respect to the fixing support 2, after which the support element 26 is screwed again to the fixing support 2.

For fixing shelves, provision of two fixing holes 30 can be made at a suitable distance from each other in the shelf arm 3. These are also visible in Fig. 4, which also presents the profile of the L-member of the shelf arm 3. A panel placed on two or several shelving arms can be fixed depending on the length on the shelving arms, for example by means of screws, which are not shown here and which are held through the openings 30. The fixed panel, for example in two shelves for shelves and on the shelving arms it is easily longitudinally movable along the crossbars, where it is hooked, in the desired working position, it can also be released and engaged again in another position Fast and without much assembly work.

Naturally, when required, the shelf arm 3 can also be adjusted vertically infinitely with respect to the fixing support 2, for which purpose an inclination and fixing lever is housed in a recess of the support element 26, said lever being fixed with a fixing cam, for example, against the lateral projections 24 and 25. A corresponding embodiment will be described below based on Figures 11 to 31.

As a consequence of the design of two parts of the shelf support 1 for shelves with a fixing support 2 and a hook-up and connectable element 17, 21 and with a removable shelving arm 3, it is also possible in the embodiment according to figures 1 to 8 to reverse the arrangement of the shelf arms, as shown, for example, in Fig. 9 for the support 1 of the upper shelf, in which the support member 26 extends upwards and the L-member of the shelf arm 3 It's down at all. On the other hand, in the shelf support placed under it the support element 26 of the shelf arm 3 is aligned downwards and the L-member of the shelf arm, which supports the shelf, is at the top. As a result, the full coupling range of the fixing bracket 2 with coupling holes 28 can be used very effectively. Naturally, it is also possible to manufacture the shelf support 1 in one piece from the fixing support 2 and the shelf arm 3 if the vertical adjustment is missed. Otherwise, the fixing support 2 is quickly produced with the hook-up and connectable element 17, 21 as a piece, preferably of metal, especially aluminum. This also preferably applies to the shelf arm 3.

Naturally, the vertical adjustment by means of the coupling holes is only illustrated as an example and provision of other coupling mechanisms can be made, such as coupling recesses incorporated laterally in the guide projections or coupling ends separated in the support of fixing, which work together with complementary couplings on the shelf arm for the purpose of vertical adjustment.

The embodiment of a shelf support described in Figures 11 to 31 resembles, in particular in view of the engagement imitation of the described embodiment, so that the same reference numbers are used for the same components. Fig. 11 is a three-dimensional view of the shelf arm 3 with fixing holes 30 for holding screws and similar connection means for fixing a panel placed on a shelf arm. This embodiment differs from the embodiment described above by the fact that the shelf arm 3 is vertically adjustable by a simple operation of a drive lever according to fig. 22 longitudinally to the fixing edge 2 of fig. 17. Therefore, the shelf arm 3 has a guide element on its front surface of the support element 26, comprising two separate guide heads 41 and 42 in the described embodiment. Therefore, the guide heads 41 and 42 are formed in a T-shape. The guide groove 43, which is open from the top, is provided on the fixing edge 2, whereby said groove extends longitudinally to the fixing edge 2. The guide groove 43 is complementary to the T-shaped guide heads 41 and 42 The shelving arm 3 is held on the fixing edge 2 by means of the guide heads 41 and 42, as best seen in the Figures 26, 28 and 29. Because of this, the shelf arm 3 inserted from the top vertically in the fixing edge 2 can be moved longitudinally to the fixing edge 42.

To vertically adjust the shelf arm 3 with respect to the fixing edge 2, the fixing edge 2 is provided with coupling ends 44 arranged one on top of the other and which are provided equidistant apart by means of the length of the edge 2 of fixation. The coupling ends 44 are formed by corresponding recesses 45 in the fixing edge 2. As is particularly obvious from Figures 17, 20 and 25, said coupling ends 44 are formed on both sides of the T-shaped guide groove 43 in the described embodiment. It is evident that the coupling ends 44 and the recesses 45 in both rows are formed together at exactly the same height and in exactly the same way.

The drive lever 46, as described in fig. 22, comprises a T-shaped drive handle 47, whereby an immobilization edge 49 displaced downwardly in the form of a locking claw is provided in the end portion of the T-body 48. On both sides of the claw 49 There are locking bolts 50 and 51 of support, by means of which the actuating lever 46 pivots in the shelf arm 3. As can be seen in Figures 23 to 29, this actuation lever is therefore inserted into the receptacle chamber 52 of the support element 26 (Fig. 11), whereby said chamber is open on both front surfaces of the element 26 of support. For an articulated support of the actuation lever 46, the receptacle chamber 52 with side flanges 53, which are provided with a rounded support groove 54 for the support of both support bolts 50 and 51 projecting laterally from the side, is therefore provided. the drive lever 46. In the three-dimensional view of the shelf arm 3 in fig. 11, however, there is only one tab visible on the side of the receptacle chamber 52.

The drive lever 46 is thus formed in consideration of the weight, such that the drive handle 47, which means that the area behind the joint axis of the support bolts 50 and 51 has more weight than the area in front of the locking bolts 50 and 51 of the locking edge 49 displaced downwards. Therefore, the drive handle 46 in the receptacle chamber 52 is pressed down in consideration of the weight in the direction F in fig. 28 and, therefore, is supported on the front wall 55 or the abutment edge on the support member 26, so in this position, as can be seen in fig. 28, the locking edge 49 engages in the coupling recess 45 and is immobilized and locked by means of the projecting coupling end 44. As can be seen in fig. 28, the immobilization edge 41 displaced downwardly is pressed outward against the fixing edge 2 in the action of the F pair.

For an unlocking, the drive lever 46 only has to be pressed upwards, for example by a manual and uniform push up, whereby the drive lever 46, housed in the support element 21 due to bolts 50 and 51 of support, is pivoted clockwise and the edge 49 is pivoted in the receptacle chamber 52 of the support member 22. This position is shown in fig. 29 and the shelf arm 3 is in this position movable up and down longitudinally to the fixing edge 2 and then a lock to the desired vertical level is possible. In the described embodiment there are two to six coupling ends 44, which are equidistant apart from each other, in total six different vertical levels of the shelf arm 3 with respect to the fixing edge 2. As can be seen in figures 28 and 29, except for the lower coupling end 44, all coupling ends placed on top are in the lower area provided with an inclined plane 56 to facilitate an upward guidance of the support element 26 , when the shelf arm 3 is adjusted, since, because of that, the locking edge 49 can be pressed back.

The locking is carried out after a corresponding vertical adjustment only by releasing the drive handle 47, which is then pivoted down to the position according to fig. 28, whereby the immobilization edge 49 is pressed until the immobilization recess 45, which is locked against the coupling end 44.

Since the coupling imitation of the shelf support 1 is designed according to the embodiment of Figures 1 to 8, no further description is necessary. As explained at the beginning, the shelves 1 for shelves are

hooked, firstly, because the fixing edge 2 is inserted with the shelf arm 3 disposed thereon by means of an engaging flange in a groove of a crossbar, thereby engaging behind a wall, which surrounds said groove. Then, the insertion end 21 engages in a groove that corresponds to the respective groove of the lower cross member. This provides an appropriate and firm support of the shelf support which, however, remains longitudinally movable to the crossbars.

If desired, the shelf support 1 can also be locked against the crossbar, which can be made by means of the clamp 60, as can be seen in fig. 31. Said clamp has a coupling hook 61 with an inclined plane 62 for insertion into an end portion. In addition, the clamp 60 is provided with a spring tongue 63, which is arranged in the center from the clamp 60 in the described embodiment and has an upwardly engaged coupling hook 64. Said coupling hook 64 serves to fix the clamp 60 on the shelf support 1, preferably in the lower end portion of the fixing edge 2. The coupling hook 61 serves to block said clamp 60 against the crossbar, into which the insertion end 21 of the fixing edge 2 is inserted. The clamp 60 is held in an insertion hole 65 in the lower end portion of the fixing edge 2, as best seen from the cross-sectional view in fig. 30, but also in figures 28 and 29. According to fig. 30, the clamp 60 is thus inserted into the insertion hole 65 from the right side, whereby the spring tongue 63, which comprises the inclined plane 66 of insertion in the front end portion of the hook is pivoted down 64 coupling. When the coupling end 64 engages through the insertion hole 65, it snaps behind the shoulder 67 of the fixing edge 2, so that the clamp 60 is fixed on the fixing edge 2. By inserting the insertion end 62 into the corresponding groove of the crossbar, the coupling hook 62 is then coupled behind the groove, so that the shelf support 1 presses into place with the corresponding crossbar by means of the clamp 60 of subjection. However, the shelf support 1 is also longitudinally movable to the crossbar.
