Abstract

864,123. Shelves; brackets; joints. HOBSON, N. June 30, 1958 [July 1, 1957; Sept. 17 1957], Nos. 20741/57 and 29240/57. Classes 52(1). 52(2) and 52(5). A vertically adjustable support member for a bracket or shelf and a vertical upright have each a complementary pair of faces forming a substantial angle with each other, the faces having interfitting projection and engagement means one of which slopes downwardly and inwardly so that as the member is applied to the upright it is wedged into the corner formed by the faces thereof. As shown in Fig. 1, four L-shaped uprights 1 have on each flange a series of headed studs 3 disposed in pairs at the same height and a shelf 4, which may be made as a sheet or, as shown, is a sheet 9 received in a frame 7, has a sloping lug 6 at each corner to take behind the heads of a pair of studs 3. The lugs may have hair-springs to catch under the studs to retain the parts assembled . As shown in Fig. 3, each upright co-operates with a block 14 having sloping grooves 17 co-operating with the headed studs, retaining springs 22 being provided. The shelf has a resilient stud 20 taking into a hole 21 in the block or the hole 21 may contain a spring to grip a plain stud on the shelf. As shown in Fig. 7 a corner block has sloping grooves 27 to receive the studs and a smaller top portion 29 to leave a space to receive the depending flange of bracket shelf or shelf-bearer. The flange and the portion may have complementary shaped parts such as grooves 28 and slots to locate the parts. The uprights may be secured to wooden legs if the shelf takes the form of a table top. As shown in Fig. 11, a bracket has inclined slots taking over studs 37 on the upright. The upright may be of X-shape in cross-section to accommodate four brackets or shelves or each flange of the upright may be of channel form to receive a vertical panel. The studs may be carried on the shelf or bracket and be received in slots in the upright. As shown in Fig. 16, uprights 58, 59 are joined end to end by a part having sloping grooves 56 taking over a pair of studs 57 on each upright. The angle between the upright's flanges may be greater or less than 90 degrees.
