Abstract
The invention relates to a wall rail system for a shelf system or similar, comprising at least one wall rail which is embodied as a U-shaped profile, comprising a rear part which is secured to a wall, two lateral limbs which are oriented away from the wall, one rear-sided cavity which extends in the longitudinal direction on the side of the rear part which is oriented towards the wall, and at least one connecting element for connecting two wall rails which push against each other in the longitudinal direction, said connecting element being received in a connected state of the two wall rails in the rear-sided cavity. The connecting element reliably connects, fixes, and aligns the rails in relation to each other without engaging in the usable space between the lateral limbs and the rear side of the U-profile.
Description
- The invention relates to a wall rail system-for suspending shelf supports or similar, in order to form a shelf system which can be used in a flexible and versatile manner.
- Such known shelf systems are commonly used and have proved to be practical in domestic and commercial applications as a means of providing a large surface area for storing books, goods, files and similar, for example. Since such shelf systems can be extended upwards and towards the side in any manner, they offer a high degree of flexibility.
- In some situations, especially in commercial applications, shelf heights of three metres, four metres or more are common. For reasons of transport, storage and handling, however, wall rails of more than 1.5 to 2 metres are impractical and uncommon. It is therefore necessary to mount two or more wall rails one above the other. This results in a need for fixing means which will enable two wall rails abutting with one another in the longitudinal direction to be oriented with respect to one another and secured to one another.
- A common type of vertical wall rails are so-called U-section rails, whereby a rear part parallel with the wall is secured to the wall, from which rear part two lateral limbs extend forwards. The limbs may be provided with bores, orifices or similar for suspending shelf supports or similar or vertical notches for guiding moving retaining elements or similar. To avoid restricting the use of U-section rails, the space formed between the rear part and lateral limbs should be as unencumbered as possible.
- GB-A-1 503 214 discloses a wall rail in the form of a U-shaped section with a rear part which can be secured to a wall and two lateral limbs facing away from the wall and a groove extending in the longitudinal direction of the wall rail which forms a wall-side cavity.
- Posts for free-standing shelves are known from U.S. Pat. No. 3,480,155, which are provided with a plug-in connecting element for connecting two shelf posts abutting with one another in the longitudinal direction.
- EP-A-095 021 discloses ceiling or wall panel strips with a C-shaped cross-section, which abut flush with one another at a connecting point and are connected to one another by means of panel connectors, which are likewise C-shaped, which panel connectors are inserted at the side flanks of the C-shaped section.
- Accordingly, the objective of this invention is to propose a wall rail system with at least a wall rail and a connecting element which enables two wall rails with a U-shaped cross-section abutting with one another in the longitudinal direction to be reliably secured and the wall rails oriented with respect to one another without essentially restricting the usable space between the lateral limbs and the rear part of the U-section.
- In order to achieve this objective, a wall rail system is proposed by the invention, comprising at least one wall rail in the form of a U-shaped section with a rear part which can be secured to a wall and two lateral limbs facing away from the wall and a rear-side cavity extending in the longitudinal direction at the face of the rear part directed towards the wall, and a connecting element for connecting two wall rails abutting with one another in the longitudinal direction, which connecting element is accommodated in the rear-side cavity when the wall rails are in a connected state.
- The connecting element thus secures the two wall rails abutting with one another at their end faces. However, because it is accommodated in the cavity formed on the wall-side behind the rear part of the wall rail, the connecting part does not project into the usable space formed between the two lateral limbs and the rear wall of the U-section wall rail. Accordingly, the connecting element does not obstruct the fixing or vertical movement of retaining elements or similar. The wall rail may therefore be of an extremely compact design.
- In one example of a preferred embodiment, the wall rail has first and second orifices on at least one lengthways end and the connecting element has first and second projections on either side for engaging in the orifices provided in the wall rail. Due to the projections of the connecting element engaging in the respective orifices of the wall rails, the latter are connected to one another and secured against one another.
- The first orifice may preferably be provided in the form of a slot disposed transversely to the longitudinal direction of the wall rail and the first projections are disposed at the end of the connecting element for engaging in the transversely disposed slots of mutually abutting wall rails, thereby causing the relative position of the wall rails to be fixed in the longitudinal direction.
- The second orifice may also preferably be provided in the form of an essentially rectangular cut-out at the end of the wall rail and the second projections of the connecting element are disposed centrally in order to engage in these second orifices, thereby causing the wall rails to be positioned with respect to one another in the transverse direction.
- Due to the combination of a slot-shaped cut-out for positioning in the longitudinal direction and a rectangular cut-out for positioning in the transverse direction, a position can be reliably fixed in both the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction and the rails oriented relative to one another using a connecting element that is compact, as well as easy and very economical to manufacture.
- The connecting element may preferably be an elongate, flat metal element with the first and second projections on either side. This is lightweight, small and inexpensive to produce.
- The side-end first projections of the connecting element may subtend an angle of between 60° and 85°, preferably between 75° and 85°, with the base plane of the connecting element, which base plane is parallel with the wall and with the plane of the rear part of the U-section rail. This choice of angle makes it easier to fit and secure two wall rails to one another and produces an elastic force which connects the two rails to one another.
- In one example of a preferred embodiment, the two central projections of the connecting element are connected to one another by means of a small notch or “crease”, which increases the strength of the connecting element.

-
FIG. 1 is a view in horizontal section illustrating an example of an embodiment of the wall rail system proposed by the invention. It comprises awall rail 10 with a U-shaped cross-section and a connectingelement 20 for connecting two wall rails abutting with one another at their lengthways ends (FIGS. 3-5 ), thus enabling two or more wall rails to be mounted one above the other on a wall, a partition wall, a frame or similar. The wall rail as a whole is provided in the form of a U-shaped section with arear part 12 which can be secured to awall 50 and twolateral limbs 14 standing out from the wall. Grooves, projecting termination elements or rails or similar may be provided at the front ends of thelateral limbs 14 remote from the wall for accommodating sliding elements or horizontally displaceable support elements. The shape and design of thelateral limbs 14 are of no consequence to this invention. - The
rear part 12 of thewall rail 10, which can be secured to the wall by means of screws for example, has aportion 12 a projecting forwards (i.e. away from the wall), which forms acavity 15 at the wall side. The connectingelement 20 for connecting two vertically abuttingsection rails 10 is accommodated in thiscavity 15. -
FIG. 2 illustrates an example of an embodiment of a connectingelement 20 proposed by the invention. It is provided in the form of a substantially elongate sheet metal part and has two side-end projections 21 as well as twocentral projections 22. The twocentral projections 22 are connected to one another via a notch or “crease”. However, the central projections could also be of a different shape. The side-end projections 21 may be disposed perpendicular to the main plane of the connecting element, which is parallel with the plane of the wall and with therear part 12 of thewall rail 10, or preferably may subtend an angle α of between 60° and 85°, preferably between 75° and 85°, with this main plane. This angular position makes it easier to fit the connecting element and the wall rails. The connectingelement 20, which may be made from an elastic material such as sheet steel, may also exert an elastic pulling force on the two wall rails to be connected. -
FIG. 3 is a view from the front, i.e. in the direction looking towards the wall, illustrating an example of an embodiment of this invention comprising twowall rails 10 mutually abutting at their ends andFIG. 4 is a view from the rear illustrating twowall rails 10 connected to one another by a connectingelement 20. - In their rear face portion, the
wall rails 10 each have a forwardly projectingmiddle portion 12 a, which forms acavity 15 at its rear face (wall-side). The connectingelement 20 for connecting twowall rails 10 abutting with one another by their ends is accommodated in thiscavity 15, as illustrated inFIGS. 1 , 4 and 5.Orifices 18 may be provided in themiddle portion 12 a of thewall rail 10 for securing the wall rail to the wall. -
Orifices middle portion 12 a, close to the lengthways end of thewall rail 12. Thefirst orifice 17 is provided in the form of a slot disposed in the transverse direction, whilst thesecond orifice 19 is of a rectangular shape and is disposed at the end of themiddle portion 12 a. In order to connect two wall rails to one another, the side-end projections 21 of the connectingelement 20 engage in thetransverse slots 17 and thus cause the wall rails to be secured to one another in the longitudinal direction (see alsoFIG. 5 ). Thecentral projections 22 of the connectingelement 20 engage in the two adjacently lyingorifices 19 and cause the two rails to be secured to one another in the transverse direction. The exactly positioned engagement of the elongate connectingelement 20 at a total of four points also causes a parallel orientation of the twoU-shaped wall rails 10 with respect to one another. - The skilled person will realise that the exact shape of the connecting
element 20 with theprojections orifices wall rail 10 may vary within the context of this invention. - The invention therefore offers a wall rail system with a wall rail and a connecting element which enables the rails to be reliably connected, secured and oriented without encroaching into the usable space between the lateral limbs and the rear face of the U-section. The invention therefore provides a fixing solution which makes fitting very easy, compact and simple.
