Definitions
- This invention relates to a rack which is mounted typically from a rafter, which may also hold a solid ceiling, or may be open.
- the rack is made of a mesh of stiff wires, and may comprise a group of modular units which may be secured together to provide a rack or racks of varying size.
- the entire rack system may be pre-assembled and lifted for easy installation into preinstalled attachment members.
- the system is very flexible and forgiving as to the spacing of the pre-installed attachment members. Also, the system will tend to move rather than break if it is bumped, since it is held from vertically mounted hanger wires which may rotate to a certain extent with respect to the rack, permitting the rack to swing rather than break.
- the rack system is inexpensive, and capable of holding large loads.
- This invention relates to a rack which comprises at least one wire mesh panel which, in turn, comprises a first array of parallel wires and a second array of parallel wires, both of the wire arrays being relatively stiff.
- the wires of the first and second arrays are in transverse, angular relation, being bonded to each other at least a substantial number of wire crossing points, by welding or the like.
- the wire mesh panel defines opposed, parallel side edges which are substantially defined by first individual wires of the first array.
- Third wires are respectively bonded to the panel, being positioned parallel to and adjacent to the first individual wires of the first array, i.e., those individual wires that define the opposed, parallel side edges.
- the third wires are spaced from the first individual wires by crossing wires of the second array.
- the opposed, parallel side edges of the wire mesh panel which comprises the rack are generally defined by a pair of parallel wires comprising a first individual wire and a third wire, separated by the second array of wires, typically the ends of the wires of the second array.
- First retaining walls may preferably extend upwardly from opposite ends of each wire mesh panel so as to prevent items on the rack from falling off.
- each retaining wall is defined by adjacent, upturned end portions of the first array of parallel wires, plus an end wire interconnecting the end portions.
- the rack may include one or more wire mesh end panels having a second retaining wall extending from a side edge between the first retaining walls.
- the second additional retaining wall is preferably defined by adjacent upturned end portions of the second array of wires, interconnected by an end wire.
- the end panels thus are preferably three-walled wire mesh panels, and are preferably used as end pieces to the rack at each end, thereby allowing the rack to have retaining walls completely enclosing its periphery.
- a plurality of the wire mesh panels described above may be connected together along their opposed parallel side edges by a plurality of clamp members. These clamp members respectively enclose the first individual wires of the first array and the adjacent third wires, to provide extra strength to the connection.
- the clamp members may retain a hanger wire, which hanger wire is positioned below the wires of the second array, parallel to the wires of the first array.
- the hanger wire extends substantially the length of the wire mesh panel, parallel to the opposed, parallel side edges.
- Each end of the hanger wire preferably defines a transversely extending wire portion terminating in a hanger hook, to permit hanging from a ceiling, typically a rafter which defines the ceiling and may also support a solid, horizontal ceiling if desired.
- several such hanger wires are present, one on each side of the wire mesh panel or preferably an array of connected wire mesh panels.
- the clamp members each comprise a first member which is substantially U-shaped in cross section, and a separate, second member which is substantially S-shaped in cross section.
- the first and second members are bolted together.
- Each of the S-shaped members defines a trough which receives a hanger wire, described above, in a position below the wires of the second array and parallel to the wires of the first array.
- each of the hanger wires may support the wires of the second array from the bottom if desired.
- heads of the bolts which hold the first and second members of the clamp member together may engage and prevent the hanger wire members from rising out of the trough when the wire mesh rack is supported by the hanger members.
- clamp members may surround and secure a pair of the opposed, parallel side edges of adjacent wire mesh panels, thus enclosing a first individual wire and a third wire of each of the panels for strong securance together of the respective wire mesh panels, to form a modular rack comprising two or more of such wire mesh panels connected together.
- the vertically mounted rack of this invention can be hung from brackets on rafters, or other elevated sites, being quite forgiving relative as to precise spacing of the brackets, and being capable of a measure of movement if bumped so that the rack swings rather than breaking in such a circumstance.
- This provides a new and useful rack for garages, workshops, and other indoor areas for added storage space, while the rack is relatively light and of simple, inexpensive construction, as well as being of variable size.

Abstract
Description
- This application is a continuation-in-part application of U.S. application Ser. No. 09/653,106, filed on Aug. 31, 2000.
- This invention relates to a rack which is mounted typically from a rafter, which may also hold a solid ceiling, or may be open. The rack is made of a mesh of stiff wires, and may comprise a group of modular units which may be secured together to provide a rack or racks of varying size. The entire rack system may be pre-assembled and lifted for easy installation into preinstalled attachment members. The system is very flexible and forgiving as to the spacing of the pre-installed attachment members. Also, the system will tend to move rather than break if it is bumped, since it is held from vertically mounted hanger wires which may rotate to a certain extent with respect to the rack, permitting the rack to swing rather than break. The rack system is inexpensive, and capable of holding large loads.
- This invention relates to a rack which comprises at least one wire mesh panel which, in turn, comprises a first array of parallel wires and a second array of parallel wires, both of the wire arrays being relatively stiff. The wires of the first and second arrays are in transverse, angular relation, being bonded to each other at least a substantial number of wire crossing points, by welding or the like.
- The wire mesh panel defines opposed, parallel side edges which are substantially defined by first individual wires of the first array. Third wires are respectively bonded to the panel, being positioned parallel to and adjacent to the first individual wires of the first array, i.e., those individual wires that define the opposed, parallel side edges. The third wires are spaced from the first individual wires by crossing wires of the second array.
- Thus, the opposed, parallel side edges of the wire mesh panel which comprises the rack are generally defined by a pair of parallel wires comprising a first individual wire and a third wire, separated by the second array of wires, typically the ends of the wires of the second array.
- First retaining walls may preferably extend upwardly from opposite ends of each wire mesh panel so as to prevent items on the rack from falling off. Preferably, each retaining wall is defined by adjacent, upturned end portions of the first array of parallel wires, plus an end wire interconnecting the end portions.
- Also, the rack may include one or more wire mesh end panels having a second retaining wall extending from a side edge between the first retaining walls. The second additional retaining wall is preferably defined by adjacent upturned end portions of the second array of wires, interconnected by an end wire. The end panels thus are preferably three-walled wire mesh panels, and are preferably used as end pieces to the rack at each end, thereby allowing the rack to have retaining walls completely enclosing its periphery.
- Often, a plurality of the wire mesh panels described above may be connected together along their opposed parallel side edges by a plurality of clamp members. These clamp members respectively enclose the first individual wires of the first array and the adjacent third wires, to provide extra strength to the connection. The clamp members may retain a hanger wire, which hanger wire is positioned below the wires of the second array, parallel to the wires of the first array. The hanger wire extends substantially the length of the wire mesh panel, parallel to the opposed, parallel side edges. Each end of the hanger wire preferably defines a transversely extending wire portion terminating in a hanger hook, to permit hanging from a ceiling, typically a rafter which defines the ceiling and may also support a solid, horizontal ceiling if desired. Preferably, several such hanger wires are present, one on each side of the wire mesh panel or preferably an array of connected wire mesh panels.
- It is also preferable for the clamp members to each comprise a first member which is substantially U-shaped in cross section, and a separate, second member which is substantially S-shaped in cross section. The first and second members are bolted together. Each of the S-shaped members defines a trough which receives a hanger wire, described above, in a position below the wires of the second array and parallel to the wires of the first array. Thus, each of the hanger wires may support the wires of the second array from the bottom if desired. Alternatively, heads of the bolts which hold the first and second members of the clamp member together may engage and prevent the hanger wire members from rising out of the trough when the wire mesh rack is supported by the hanger members. Also, the clamp members may surround and secure a pair of the opposed, parallel side edges of adjacent wire mesh panels, thus enclosing a first individual wire and a third wire of each of the panels for strong securance together of the respective wire mesh panels, to form a modular rack comprising two or more of such wire mesh panels connected together.
- Thus the vertically mounted rack of this invention can be hung from brackets on rafters, or other elevated sites, being quite forgiving relative as to precise spacing of the brackets, and being capable of a measure of movement if bumped so that the rack swings rather than breaking in such a circumstance. This provides a new and useful rack for garages, workshops, and other indoor areas for added storage space, while the rack is relatively light and of simple, inexpensive construction, as well as being of variable size.
- In the drawings,
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of a rack of this invention, comprising four connected wire mesh panels, with certain portions eliminated for clarity.
- FIG. 2 is an enlarged, fragmentary perspective view of a portion of the rack of FIG. 1, as indicated in FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 is a simplified, fragmentary vertical section showing pairs of first and second individual wires and third wires of respective parallel side edges of two wire mesh panels, enclosed by the clamp member of this invention.
- FIG. 4 is a fragmentary side elevational view of the structure of FIG. 2, taken from the right side as shown in FIG. 2, showing the retaining wall and its associated structure.
- Referring to the drawings, a
modular rack 10 is shown, being made up of severalwire mesh panels 12, which are secured together at respective opposed,parallel side edges 14. - Each wire mesh panel comprises a first array of
parallel wires 16 and a second array ofparallel wires 18. The respective wires of the first andsecond arrays second arrays - The respective wires of
arrays - In accordance with this invention,
third wires 20 are respectively bonded to the panel at crossingsecond wires 18, the third wires being positioned parallel to and adjacent to the firstindividual wires 16 a of the first array, being typically positioned at the edge of each panel along with firstindividual wires 16 a of the first array. This defines theside edges 14 along withthird wires 20 in this embodiment. This can be seen in FIG. 3, for example, in which the opposed, parallel side edges of joined panels are defined by a firstindividual wire 16 a of the panel'sfirst array 16 and a parallelthird wire 20, therespective wires second wire array 18. - Retaining
walls 50 are preferably located on opposite ends of eachwire mesh panel 12. Preferably, the opposedretaining walls 50 are each defined by adjacent, upturnedend portions 51 of thefirst array 16 of parallel wires, plus anend wire 52 interconnecting the upturnedend portions 51. - The end
wire mesh panels 12 a may also include an additionalretaining wall 53 extending betweenretaining walls 50. Thisretaining wall 53 is defined along a panel side edge by the adjacent upturnedend portions 54 of the second array of parallel wires and anend wire 55 interconnecting the upturnedend portions 54. The three-walledwire mesh panels 12 a preferably form end pieces to the rack, enabling the entire rack to have retainingwalls - The respective
wire mesh panels 12 are connected together along the opposed parallel side edges defined bywires clamp members 22, which hold the respective panels together, enclosing respectivethird wires 20 and firstindividual wires 16 a of the pair of wire mesh panels together in theclamp 22 in a generally rectangular array, with each of thewires 20 of adjacent panels being separated fromwires 16 a by the perpendicular wires of thesecond array 18. This provides a strong, secure connection between the respectivewire mesh panels 12, with the panel edges defined bywires extra wire 20. - Each of the
respective clamp members 22 comprise afirst member 24 which is substantially U-shaped in cross section (FIG. 2) and asecond member 26, which is substantially S-shaped in cross section, with one end being extended parallel to the central portion of the S-shaped cross section so that the extendedend 28 defines atrough 30. First andsecond members bolts 32 into the configuration as shown in FIG. 2. In this configuration, the respective sides of two wire mesh panels are held together by the clamping of their respective firstindividual wires 16 a and thethird wires 20, the wires being held in a cross-sectional rectangular array, withwires 20 being spaced fromwires 16 a by the wires ofsecond array 18. - Trough30, defined by S-shaped
second member 26, carries ahorizontal portion 34 a of ahanger wire 34 in a position below the wires ofsecond array 18. The section ofhanger wire 34 which occupiestrough 30 is parallel to the wires offirst array - Each of
hanger wires 34 carries ahook 38 at its outer end, which hook can engage an aperture 40 of abracket 42, which bracket may be mounted on a rafter or other solid site for mounting above therack 12. While not shown for clarity, each ofhooks 38 may connect to a separate attachedbracket 42, which brackets may be mounted byscrews 46 in a conventional manner. Because of the inherent flexibility ofhanger wires 34, the placement of brackets 40 along a rafter or other attachment site is not very critical, so that therack 12 of this invention can be easily installed. Also, ifrack 12 is struck by the top of a moving vehicle, its tendency is more to swing and bend rather than to break, while retaining the load carried on the rack. - The
horizontal section 34 a ofhanger wire 34 may rest underneath the wires ofsecond array 18 in load bearing manner. Alternatively, the heads ofbolts 32 and the width ofextended portion 28 ofsecond clamp section 26 may retain thehorizontal portions 34 a ofhanger wires 34 in spaced relation fromsecond wire array 18, if desired, and either way, strong load-bearing characteristics can be achieved. - The respective side edges48 of
rack 12 will normally also be secured byclamp members 22 with an attached, retainedhanger wire 34. But this structure is not shown for clarity of disclosure, so that the structure and relationship ofwires - Thus, a
modular rack 12 is disclosed, which may comprise one or any plural number of connectedwire mesh panels 12, having attached hanger wires which may be connected at their outer ends throughhooks 38 or the like to an upper attachment point, such as a ceiling, which term is intended to include open rafters or any other upper surface under a roof. The modular rack is inexpensive, very strong, easy to install, and resistant to damage by collision with the top of a moving vehicle or the like. - The above has been offered for illustrative purposes only, and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention of this application, which is as described in the claims below.
