Description

Hanging device for the presentation of objects

Field of application of the invention

The present invention relates to a suspension device for the presentation of objects, which is based on a grating field with a plurality of cells as a plug-in receptacle on which a front side and a rear side are present. For detachable hooking in a selected cell of the grid field, a primary carrier is provided with its male part. The male part has an upward-pointing hook contour, which is intended to engage behind the horizontal web which delimits the selected cell. One or more primary carriers can support a secondary carrier. Such devices are typical fixtures in shops.

State of the art

From WO 2009/073990 A1 a suspension device for the presentation of objects is known, which has a plug-in receptacle with a front side and a rear side. A primary carrier has a plug-in part, which is intended for releasable hooking into the plug-in receptacle. The male part has an upward-pointing hook contour, which is provided for cooperation with a mating contour in the plug-in receptacle. The male part has a stop which is supported in the inserted state on the front side of the socket. The plug-in receptacle is designed as a grid field with a multiplicity of cells open to the front, which is surrounded by horizontal webs and vertical webs. The mating contour is formed by the respective upper horizontal web associated with the respective cell, which is engaged behind by the hook contour. The cells are juxtaposed in horizontal rows and vertical rows and also open to the back of the grid array. The horizontal and vertical webs enclose a basically rectangular, preferably square opening between the front and the back. The horizontal and vertical webs of a grid field are formed at its outer edges in half the length, resulting in the preparation of a next grid field of its formed on the outer edges in half length horizontal and vertical webs together complete cells. The grille has cams on the back for attaching of mounting parts or for direct attachment to a support structure and serve as spacers to this support structure. In this device, the insertion of carriers in the grid field is provided only from the front side, the male part has a relatively complicated construction, and the carrier is only available in a variant.

Object of the invention

In relation to the prior art, the invention has for its object to provide a generic device with the possibility of suspending primary carriers from both sides of the grid field.

Another object is to make the plug-in part structurally as simple as possible to minimize the manufacturing cost.

A next task is to propose the carriers which can be suspended in the grid field in a plurality of variants, in order to allow a greater range of variation in the loading of the grid field.

Finally, constructive means have to be provided in order to arrange the grid field freestanding or mounted on a rear wall or to hang it.

Overview of the invention

The hanging device for presenting objects first comprises a mesh panel having a plurality of systematically arranged cells each surrounded by two horizontal bars and two vertical bars, the cells being open to a front side and a rear side. Furthermore, the suspension device includes a primary carrier, which has at least one plug-in part, which is intended for releasable suspension in a selected cell. The male part has an upward-pointing hook contour, which engages behind the selected cell upwardly limiting horizontal web in the suspended state. The male part has a lower stop which, in the suspended state, is supported on the horizontal web delimiting the selected cell downwards. The male part has at least one leaf-shaped flank with a edge, which merges upward into the hook contour. The lower stop is present on a lower side of the flank. In the selected cell, the at least one flank of a primary carrier brought up from the front side of the grid field can be suspended, and at the same time the at least one flank of a primary carrier brought up from the rear side can be suspended.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the suspension device are described: At an upper edge of the at least one flank, an upper recess is provided, which adjoins the hook contour and terminates at an upper stop, wherein the upper recess is dimensioned to therein between the front and the back to record the horizontal depth of a horizontal bar. Between the front edge and the lower stop is a bevelled and / or rounded lower edge. Alternatively adjoins the stop on a lower recess which is bounded by the lower end of the front edge, wherein the lower recess is dimensioned to receive therein the lying between the front and the back depth of a horizontal web.

The male part of a primary carrier first variant has two mutually parallel, congruent contoured flanks, which are connected by a central web U-shaped, integral with each other. Between both flanks is a multi-sided open space. On a side facing away from the flanks of the outside of the central web sets a support member with a second end, wherein the support member extends to a first end.

In a selected cell in each case one of the front side and one of the rear hinged plug-in part:

a) one flank of each of the two plug-in parts comes to rest on the respective adjacent vertical web and the other flank in each case comes to lie on the inside of the first-mentioned flank and projects into the intermediate space of the respective opposite plug-in part;

b) resting due to the forked offset interlocking four edges of the two plug-in parts of both primary carrier their plug-in parts in principle without Side play in a shared cell;

c) engages behind the pair of hook contours, which belongs to the hinged from the front primary carrier, the cell upwardly bounding horizontal bar on the back;

d) engages by analogy, the pair of hook contours, which belongs to the hinged on the back primary carrier, the same horizontal bar on the front page; and

e) is the inner surface of the respective central web at a distance in front of the front or in front of the back of the grid field, so that each space for the hook contours of the inside positioned flanks remains.

For hanging only a primary carrier in a selected cell from the front or the back, the flanks are provided on their respective outer side with a raised clamping contour to reduce the lateral play of the hanging in the cell plug-in part.

A primary carrier of the second variant is composed of at least two plug-in parts each having only one flank, a strip-shaped cross-connector and a plurality of outgoing support elements. The male parts are attached directly or with an adjoining extension to a side surface of the cross connector. On the opposite side surface of the cross connector are the support elements, e.g. in the form of straight bar sections with round cross section, attached. The distance between the plug-in parts is complementary to the grid mass of the cell-bounding vertical webs of the grid field.

The grid field is arranged in a support structure, which may have a pedestal placed on the ground and / or a frame spanning the grid field. Or for ceiling and / or wall mounting the grating field is provided on the rear side facing away from the room with a frame which serves as a suspension on a ceiling and / or as a spacer from a rear wall. For attachment of a grid array to a rear wall, a preferably one-piece holder is provided. The holder consists of a narrow U-shaped bent clamp member with a recess extending from the bend and two wings spread apart, which attach to the ends of the clamp member and form a Aufsetzflansch. Between the wings opens up to the bend extending gap.

In each wing, a hole, preferably for screwing to the rear wall, is provided. Near the transitions from the clamp part to the respective wing a tongue-shaped, inwardly bent securing element is present. In the mounted state, the holder is placed from the front on a vertical web, so that it rests in the gap and the wings attached to the rear wall come to rest at a distance from the back. The distance between the back of the grid panel and the back wall provides the clearance for the trailing hook contours hinged primary beams. The securing elements brace themselves on the back against the vertical web embraced by the holder and thus act as barbs against the advancement of the grid field in the direction of the rear wall. The recess on the holder when mounting a primary carrier in the adjacent cell allows the leading of the clamping contour to the inner surface of the holder provided with the vertical web.

The primary carriers of both variants, in addition to the direct attachment of objects to be presented, are also for holding a tray, e.g. in the form of a tray, a grid or a container, usable, such shelves figuring as a secondary carrier and serve the horizontal presentation of objects.

Working Example

The detailed description of an exemplary embodiment of the suspension device according to the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The following definition applies to the entire further description. If reference numerals are included in a figure for the purpose of graphic uniqueness, but are not explained in the directly associated descriptive text, reference is made to their mention in the preceding or following description of the figures. For the sake of clarity, reference is made to the repeated designation Of components in other figures mostly omitted, as far as the drawing is clearly recognizable that it is "recurring" components.

FIG. 1

The erected in a vertical plane grid array 1 has a plurality of horizontal rows and vertical rows of cells 10, which are each enclosed at the top and bottom of a horizontal web 11 and on both sides of a respective vertical web 12. To the front 18 and the back 19 of the grid array 1, the cells 10 are open, which have a rectangular, preferably square shape. Preferably, the grid panel 1 is made of sheet metal having a thickness of e.g. 2.0 mm made. The horizontal and vertical clearances are e.g. 48.0 mm and the depth of a cell 10 e.g. 25.0 mm.

FIGS. 2A to 2E

This sequence of figures relates to a primary carrier 2 of the first variant, which is composed of a rod-shaped carrier element 20 and a U-shaped plug-in part 21 which attaches to its second end 202. The first end 201 of the boom 20 projects freely into the room. The second end 202 is perpendicular and centric to the central web 210 of the male part 21 at. From the central web 210 a flank 211 is bent at right angles on both sides, which has a recess 213 at its upper edge, so that in front of the central web 210, an upper stop 215 is formed and adjacent to the front edge 212 in the height, above the level of the central web 210th extending hook contour 214 rises. The leading edge 212 merges into a lower edge 216 and ends at a lower stop 217, which is similar to the upper stop 215, but slightly further away from the plane of the central web 210. In the suspended state so that the support member 20 is toward the first end 201 with respect to the _horizontal a slight upward trend to avoid the negative effect of the optical impression of sagging particularly under load. Centrally on both flanks 211, in each case a spherically bulged clamping contour 219 is provided, which is advantageously produced by pushing out of the inner surface of the flank 211. The primary carriers 2 of the first variant with clamping contours Reindeer 219 on the plug 21 are used when only a primary carrier 2 is inserted into a cell 10 of the front side 18 or the back 19 (see Figures 5A to 5D).

In the embodiment of the plug-in part 21 according to FIG 2E no clamping contour 219 is present. These primary carriers 2 are used when in each case a primary carrier 2 is inserted into a cell 10 from the front side 18 and the rear side 19, the flanks 211 of which engage in an offset manner (see FIGS. 6A and 6B).

FIGS. 3A to 3C

This sequence of figures comprises a primary carrier of the first variant, largely similar to FIGS. 2A to 2E, but the plug-in part 21 has a modified form. The upper recess 213 extends deeper downward into the flanks 211, and the lower edge extends obliquely sloping from the hook contour 214 toward the upper stop 215. Further, adjoins the lower stop 217, a lower recess 217 ", of the downwardly projecting leading edge 212th The lower cut-in upper recess 213 and in particular the lower recess 217 "effect in the suspended state an improved safeguard against unintentional detachment from the grid panel 1 (see Figures 7A to 7D).

FIGS. 4A and 4B

A complex constructed primary carrier 2 'second variant is composed of at least two plug-in parts 21', each with only one flank 211 ", a strip-shaped cross connector 23" and a plurality of outgoing support members 20 'together. The plug-in parts 21 'are attached, eg welded, directly to a side surface of the transverse connector 23 "without an adjoining extension 22' The distance between the plug-in parts 21 'is complementary to the grid dimension of the grid panel 1. On the opposite side surface of the transverse connector 23 'are the support members 20', for example in the form of straight bar sections with a round cross section attached. Figures 4C and 4P

In a modification to the previous pair of figures, the plug-in parts 21 'of this complex constructed primary support 2' second variant with a subsequent extension 22 'to a side surface of the cross connector 23' are attached at right angles. The first end 221 'of the extension 22' is fixed to the transverse connector 23 ', while the second end 222' of the extension 22 'integrally merges with the male part 21 "From the opposite side surface of the transverse connector 23" a plurality of support members 20' extend. The flank 211 'again has as contours a leading edge 212', a recess 213 'with the hook contour 214' and the upper stop 215 "lying on the upper edge Alternatively, the plug-in part 21 '- similar to the modified shape according to Figures 3A to 3C - instead of the bevelled or rounded lower edge 216' with a lower stop 217 'adjacent lower recess 217 "be provided.

FIGS. 5A to 5D

When equipping a cell 10 with a primary carrier 2 of the first variant, e.g. from the front side 18 - or from the rear side 19 - the primary carrier 2 according to FIGS. 2A to 2D with the clamping contours 219 is preferred. At the beginning of the suspension operation, the plug-in part 21 is introduced into the cell 10 when the support element 20 is raised at an angle. It is most practicable, with the upper stops 215 to attach to the front edge of the respective cell 10 above limiting horizontal web 11. The beveled lower edges 216 allow for oblique insertion. In this case, the hook contours 214 are already partially behind the horizontal web 11, which covers the occupied cell 10 upwards. However, the horizontal web 11 is not yet engaged behind by the hook contours 214.

With successive lowering of the support member 20 of the central web 210 comes to lie in the horizontal plane, the hook contours 214 engage behind and beyond the horizontal web 11 and the lower stops 217 set at the lower horizontal web 11, which limits the occupied cell 10 down on. The two outwardly arched clamping contours 219 fill the gap remaining between the two flanks 211 and the respectively adjacent vertical web 12 at points, so that the plug-in part 21 is centered and inserted in the cell 10 as far as possible without side play. If the lower stops 217 completely cover the thickness of the lower horizontal web 11, the upper stops 215 should not protrude into the thickness of the upper horizontal web 11 in order to leave room for a primary carrier 2 to be inserted into the underlying cell 10. If the lower stops 217 only partially cover the thickness of the lower horizontal web 11, then the upper stops 215 can protrude correspondingly partially into the thickness of the upper horizontal web 11. The removal of a male part 21 from a cell 10 is retrograde, starting with oblique lifting of the support element 20th

Figures 6A and 6B

When a cell 10 is fitted with a respective primary carrier 2 from the front side 18 and the rear side 19, those without a clamping contour 219 according to FIG. 2E are used. The hanging process is identical to the previous sequence of figures. In the suspended state, in each case one flank 211 of each plug-in part 21 comes to lie on the adjacent vertical web 12, and the other flank 211 comes to lie on the inside of the first-mentioned flank 211 and protrudes into the intermediate space 218 of the respective opposite plug-in part 21. By the fork-shaped offset interlocking four edges 211 of the two primary carrier 2 sit their plug-in parts 21 quasi side play in a shared cell 10. The pair of hook contours 214, which belongs to the used by the front 18 primary carrier 2, engages behind the cell 10 upwards Conversely, the pair of hook contours 214, which belongs to the primary carrier 2 inserted from the rear side 19, engages behind the same horizontal web 11 on the front side 18. The inner surface of the respective center web 210 is at a distance from the front web. or rear side 18,19 of the grid field 1, so that each gap 218 for the hook contours 214 of the internally positioned flanks 211 remains. FIGS. 7A to 7D

The grid field 1, shown completely in FIG. 7A, with its front side 18 and the rear side 19 occupies a rectangular area and is bordered by a frame 91. Otherwise, it again consists of arranged in horizontal rows and vertical rows of cells 10, each surrounded by two horizontal webs 11 and two vertical webs 12. For the cells 10 on the outer edges, the respective horizontal webs 11 and vertical webs 12 are formed by the peripheral frame 91.

The lower primary carrier 2 of the first variant in a modified form (see FIGS. 3A to 3C) is located only in the partially suspended state (see FIGS. 7A to 7C). The plug-in part 21 hangs chamfered in the selected cell 10, the inclined front edge 212 sits in the lower area in the cell 10, while the towering hook contour 214 engages behind the upper horizontal web 11 at the rear 19, which is currently deep in the upper recess 213. The central web 210 is obliquely in front of the selected cell 10, so that the upper stop 215 dips into the cell 10, which lies above the selected cell 10. The outgoing from the central web 210 rod-shaped support member 20 has with its first end 201 upwardly extending into the room.

By pivoting from the previously partially suspended state into the horizontal and lowering the upper primary carrier 2 reached the intended fully suspended state. Here, the front edge 212 is completely on the back 19, the hook contour 214 engages behind the upper horizontal bar 11 and the lower end of the front edge 212 engages behind the lower horizontal bar 11, on which the lower recess 217 "is seated Front side 18 against the lower horizontal web 11. The upper horizontal web 11 against which the upper stop 215 bounces is located in the upper recess 213. The primary carrier 2 suspended in the cell 10 is thus secured against upward and downward impacting , this must first be raised so that the lower horizontal web 11 with the lower recess 217 "disengaged. Then, the pivoting movement takes place with increasing erection of the primary carrier 2, to virtually unscrew the male part 21 from the cell 10.

FIGS. 8A to 8D

A principal possible use of the suspension is the arrangement of the grid field 1 in a support structure 9 with a resting on the ground pedestal 90 and the grid field 1 spanning frame 91. This frame structure is particularly for positioning in the middle of the room with placement and accessibility of the front and back 18,19 suitable. The primary carriers 2 of the first variant according to FIGS. 2A to 2E and the modification according to FIGS. 3A to 3C and the primary carriers 2 'of the second variant according to FIGS. 4A to 4D are available for equipping the cells 10. The primary carriers 2 "can be dimensioned such that their length corresponds to the width of the grid field 1. An advantageous assembly combination would be to mount a primary carrier 2 'according to FIG. 4A without extensions 22" to the plug-in parts 21' in an upper row of cells 10 and 4C with extensions 22 "on the plug-in parts 21 'in a lower row of cells 10. The support elements 20' of the lower primary support 2 'thus provide a relation to the support elements 20" of the upper primary support 2' in the room further ahead hanging level. Alternatively, the support elements 20, 20 "can be of a circular or round or polygonal cross-section The assembly pattern with the primary carriers 2, 2 'in rows of cells 10 and / or individual cells 10 is determined by the type, size and number of pieces on the suspension device presenting objects.

A single primary carrier 2 first variant, but preferably at least two such side hung primary carrier 2, and a primary carrier 2 'second variant is in addition to the direct attachment of objects to be presented also for holding a tray - eg in the form of a tray, a grid or a container - usable. Such a tray figures as a secondary carrier and serves the horizontal presentation of objects. FIG. 9

For ceiling and / or wall mounting, the grid field 1 can be provided on the rear side facing away from the space 19 with a frame 92 which is designed as a suspension on a ceiling and / or as a spacer from a rear wall. For a larger grid area 1, one will attach a rack 92 in the lower area and another rack 92 in the upper area. Due to the limited accessibility from the rear side 19 comes here an assembly with the primary beams 2,2 'in principle only from the front side 18 into consideration.

Figures IQA to 10C

To attach a grid array 1 to a rear wall 99 are holder 3 available. The preferably one-piece holder 3 consists of a narrow U-shaped bent clamp member 30 having a bend extending from the recess 31 and two spaced-apart wings 35, which attach to the ends of the clamp member 30 and form a Aufsetzflansch. Between the wings 35 opens up to a bend extending gap 32. In each wing 35, a hole 36 is preferably provided for screwing to the rear wall 99. Near the transitions from the clamp member 30 to the respective wing 35 is a tongue-shaped, inwardly bent securing element 33 is present.

In the assembled state, the holder 3 is inserted from the front side 18 onto a vertical web 12 so that it rests in the gap 32 and the wings 35 attached to the rear wall 99 come to lie at a distance from the rear side 19. The distance between the back 19 of the grid array 1 and the rear wall 99 forms the space for the trailing hook contours 214,214 'hinged primary beams 2,2'. The securing elements 33 are supported on the rear side 19 against the vertical web 12 encompassed by the holder 3 and thus act as barbs against the advancement of the grid field 1 in the direction of the rear wall 99. The recess 31 on the holder 3 makes it possible to mount a primary carrier 2 in the adjacent cell 10 bringing the clamping contour 219 to the inner surface of the vertical web 12 provided with the holder 3.
