Description
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to shelving, in particular, shelving consisting of components which are assembled with securing elements and further comprising vertical and horizontal compartment dividers.
2. The Prior Art
It is known in the art to connect shelves consisting of individual components such as horizontal and vertical compartment dividers, shelf posts and back walls by means of screws, rivets, or by welding. A method frequently employed for assembling shelves comprises securing the shelf bottoms with screws between vertical posts. Another frequently used method is to suspend so-called compartment supports in vertical posts, or to screw such supports into the latter. The individual compartment bottoms are then secured to such supports by means of screws.
Another method for constructing shelves makes use of mounting supports, such as angle sections which are located on vertical walls on the left and right sides having defined spacings. Compartment bottom components of the shelf are then secured to the supports using screws, rivets or welding.
A shelf-like rack with compartment bottoms is known from DE 89 14 430 U1, where a rearward extension of a compartment bottom projects through a slot and into a back wall. The rearward extension has an arresting slot terminating with the back wall. A T-shaped locking element is inserted through the slot, and prevents the compartment bottom from moving. Because of its overall construction, this known rack, which is made from corrugated board, is only suitable for receiving goods of a light weight. Furthermore, the edges in the slide-in area are not rounded.
The known designs of larger shelves all require tools and securing elements to assemble and stabilize the shelves. Furthermore, the compartment divisions formed by the assembly contain sharp edges on all sides. In the corner areas of the compartments, support sections, securing elements or other applications lead to interfering edges that may cause problems when the compartments of the shelf are loaded with sensitive goods, or when the latter are removed from the shelf. In addition, the securing elements may reduce the amount of useable storage space. Furthermore, disposal of those shelves which are no longer needed creates problems.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a component shelf system which can be easily assembled and stabilized without the help of tools.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a component shelf which has compartments without sharp edges along the circumference, and horizontal and vertical compartment dividers with rounded edges in the slide-in areas. Furthermore, the horizontal and vertical compartment dividers are interwoven with each other at the points of intersection using a splint.
It is a final object to provide a strong shelf made from one type of material.
To achieve these objects, stabilizing elements such as angle sections, screws or rivets have been eliminated. This yields surfaces that extend around the compartment divisions with no sharp edges. Furthermore, in the junctions between the horizontal and vertical compartment divisions, a splint is inserted between the parts of the folded vertical compartment division. This not only increases the stability of the entire shelf with the horizontal compartment divisions, but safely prevents lateral movement of the vertical edges of the vertical compartment divisions.
The invention makes use of two tabs with bores which are arranged on the edges of the side wall and on the horizontal and vertical compartment divisions, through which securing bars are installed in the assembled shelf. Thus it is possible to assure an extremely stable connection between the components of the shelf when the components are assembled and fixed by the securing bars.
Other objects and features of the present invention become apparent from the following detailed description considered in connection with the accompanying drawings which disclose the embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood, however, that the drawings are designed for the purpose of illustration only, and not as a definition of the limits of the invention.
Turning now in detail to the drawings, FIG. 1 shows a component shelf system 30 comprising a frame 35 having a back wall 1, a pair of side walls 2 and 3, a bottom wall 4, and a top wall 5; at least one horizontal compartment divider 6, and at least one vertical compartment divider 7 having a top end 38 and a bottom end 39. Note that only one compartment divider is shown in each case for the sake of simplicity.
Referring to FIG. 2 , horizontal compartment divider 6 is manufactured from one sheet of material and designed to include tab 9, horizontal divider slot 13, and a splint receiving slot 16. Each tab 9 has a securing bore 11 milled of a particular diameter and at a particular distance on tab 9 depending upon certain factors such as the type of material the shelf is constructed of and the load placed upon the shelf.
Referring the FIG. 3 , horizontal compartment divider 6 is folded over to create a finished horizontal compartment divider 6 having rounded folding edges 8. Horizontal compartment divider 6 may either be sealed together using glue, heat treatment, or other suitable bonding process, or be left unsealed.
Referring to FIG. 4 , vertical compartment divider 7 is manufactured from one sheet of material and designed to include tab 9 and vertical divider slot 14.
Referring to FIG. 5 , vertical compartment divider 7 is folded over to create a finished vertical compartment divider 7 having rounded folding edges 8. Vertical compartment divider 7 may either be sealed together using glue, heat treatment, or other suitable bonding process, or be left unsealed. When sealing vertical compartment divider 7, care must be taken not to glue the region closest to rounded folding edge 8 as a splint 15 is inserted between the two halves of vertical compartment divider 7 to add strength and durability.
Referring to FIG. 6 , side walls 2 and 3 are similarly manufactured from one sheet of material and designed to include tab 9 and at least one horizontal receiving slot 36.
Referring to FIG. 7 , side walls 2 and 3 are folded over to create finished side walls 2 and 3 are having rounded folding edge 8. Side walls 2 and 3 may either be sealed together using glue, heat treatment, or other suitable bonding process, or be left unsealed.
Referring to FIG. 8 , vertical compartment divider 7 and horizontal compartment divider 6 are inserted into assembled frame 35. Tabs 9 are inserted into corresponding side receiving slot 10, horizontal receiving slot 36 and vertical receiving slot 37. A corresponding number of safety bars 12 are then inserted into securing bores 11 to join and stabilize component shelf system 30.
Referring to FIG. 9 , there is shown an enlargement of section A of FIG. 8 , referring to the junction between horizontal compartment dividers 6 and vertical compartment dividers 7. Splint 15 is inserted between the folded parts of vertical compartment divider 7 and splint receiving slot 16 in the horizontal compartment divider 6. An interwoven connection is therefore made between the two compartment dividers. In addition, lateral movement of rounded folding edge 8 of vertical compartment divider 7 is prevented.
After component shelf system 30 has been assembled, tabs 9 on the side walls 2 and 3 and on vertical compartment divider 7 are folded over on the underside and fused with bottom wall 4. It is, of course, possible to use as many vertical compartment dividers 7 and horizontal compartment dividers 6 as desired. The horizontal compartment dividers may also be inserted at a downward angle, away from the top wall.
Referring to FIGS. 10 , 11 and 12, an additional configuration of component shelf system 30 contains two vertical compartment dividers 7 and six horizontal compartment dividers 6. As a back wall or an intermediate wall is missing in the embodiment of the shelf, provision is made in side walls 2 and 3 for at least one support bar receiving slot 17, through which support bars 18 are inserted, the latter supporting horizontal compartment dividers 6 especially in the region of longitudinal slots 19. The two ends of support bar 18 are provided with a support bar securing bore 20, through which a securing bar 21 is inserted. This system of shelf construction results in a particularly stable shelf as perspectively shown in FIG. 11 and shown in detail in FIG. 12.
Referring to FIG. 13 , there is shown an exploded, perspective view of an alternate configuration of component shelf system 30 as defined in FIG. 1. Side walls 2 and 3 are modified to accommodate two sets of vertical component dividers 7 and horizontal component dividers 6. A center wall 22 acts similar to back wall 1 of FIG. 1. Center wall 22 has tabs 9 which are plugged into corresponding vertical receiving slots 37 on bottom wall 4, and into corresponding vertical receiving slots of top wall 5.
As shown perspectively in FIG. 14 and by a detail of FIG. 14 in FIG. 15 , this system results in an extremely stable shelf which is accessible from both sides.
Of course, the features of the invention can be applied in connection with shelves where no provision is made for additional horizontal compartment dividers as is formed only by the bottom and the top components.
While several embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it is to be understood that many changes and modifications may be made thereunto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
