Abstract
Description
Bekannt sind zerlegbare Metallregale, deren Ständer jeweils aus einer einzelnen Säule und einem an deren unterem Ende einhängbaren Fußteil-Ausleger bestehen.Foldable metal shelves are known, the stands of which consist of one single column and a foot section arm that can be attached to its lower end consist.
CH-A-391 227 offenbart einen einseitigen Regalständer mit einer Säule und einem an dieser befestigbaren Fußteil-Ausleger, der nahe seinem der Säule benachbarten Ende und nahe seinem freien Ende jeweils zur Aufnahme eines unteren Stützelements gestaltet ist.CH-A-391 227 discloses a one-sided shelf stand with a column and a foot section bracket that can be attached to it, the end near its end and near its end free end is designed to receive a lower support element.
Zwei oder mehrere derartige Regalständer werden durch Einhängen von Rückwand- und sonstigen Querelementen zu einem ein- oder mehrteiligen Regal miteinander verbunden, das freistehend als Raumteiler oder auch an einer Gebäudewand, möglicherweise an dieser befestigt, aufgestellt wird. Die Säulen sind mit vertikalen Reihen von Lochungen versehen, in die Konsolträger zur Aufnahme von Fachböden, Warenkörben oder sonstigen Ablageelementen eingehängt werden.Two or more such rack stands are suspended from rear wall and other cross elements to one or more parts Shelf connected to each other, free-standing as a room divider or also is placed on a building wall, possibly attached to it. The pillars are provided with vertical rows of perforations in the bracket supports to accommodate shelves, shopping baskets or other storage elements be hung up.
Da sich die Säule hinter dem mit den Füßen versehenen Fußteil-Ausleger befindet, besteht bei derartigen Regalständern insbesondere im nicht oder wenig belasteten Zustand die Neigung, nach hinten zu kippen. Auch wenn das Regal als Wandregal bestimmt ist, stört eine solche Kippneigung mindestens bei der Montage.Because the column is behind the foot section arm is, is not in such shelf stands in particular or less stressed condition, the tendency to tip backwards. Also if the shelf is intended as a wall shelf, such a tendency to tilt interferes at least during assembly.
Bei den aus DE-A-3 028 552 und EP-A-0 715 823 bekannten Regalständern ist diese Kippneigung dadurch reduziert, daß der hintere Fuß in einem Hakenteil des Auslegers angeordnet ist, auf den das untere Ende der Säule aufgesteckt wird. Im zusammengebauten Zustand befindet sich dieser Fuß zwar unterhalb der Säule, aber nicht unter ihrem Schwerpunkt.In the shelf stands known from DE-A-3 028 552 and EP-A-0 715 823 this tendency to tilt is reduced by the fact that the rear foot in a hook part of the boom is arranged, on which the lower end of the Column is attached. This is in the assembled state Foot below the column, but not below its center of gravity.
Aus WO 96/10936, DE-A-2 853 714, FR-A-2 763 487 und GB-A-1 325 960 sind ferner Regalständer bekannt, bei den der Ausleger nur einen Fuß nahe seinem äußeren Ende aufweist, während ein zweiter Fuß am unteren Ende der Säule selbst und zwar zentrisch zu dieser angebracht ist. Auch in diesen Fällen ist die Kippgefahr geringer als bei der Anordnung gemäß CH-A-391 227. Abgesehen davon, daß für die Befestigung des Fußes am Ausleger ein anders gestaltetes Bauteil erforderlich ist als für die Befestigung an der Säule und daher die Anzahl der bereitzuhaltenden Einzelteile steigt, ist allen diesen Regalständern noch immer eine erhebliche Kipptendenz eigen, solange der oder die Ausleger unbelastet sind.From WO 96/10936, DE-A-2 853 714, FR-A-2 763 487 and GB-A-1 325 960 rack stands are also known in which the boom only one Foot near its outer end, while a second foot at the lower End of the column itself and is attached centrally to this. Also in these cases the risk of tipping is lower than with the arrangement according to CH-A-391 227. Apart from that for the attachment of the foot on Boom a differently designed component is required than for the attachment on the column and therefore the number of individual parts to be kept ready increases, all these shelving stands are still a significant tendency to tip over own as long as the boom (s) are unloaded.
Bei den Anordnungen nach EP-A-0 715 823 und US-A-3,044,634 handelt es sich um zweiseitige Regalständer, bei denen die Säule an entgegengesetzten Seiten mit Auslegern bestückt ist. Es versteht sich von selbst, daß diese doppelseitigen, über insgesamt vier Füße abgestützte Regalständer nach hinten ebenso wenig kippen wie nach vorne.The arrangements according to EP-A-0 715 823 and US-A-3,044,634 are concerned it is a two-sided shelf stand where the column is on opposite sides Sides with outriggers. It goes without saying that these double-sided shelf stands supported by a total of four feet Tilt back as little as forwards.
Aus US-A-5,439,122 ist eine einseitiger Regalständer mit den im ersten Teil des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmalen bekannt. Am unteren Ende der Säule sind dort zwei nach vorne bzw. hinten ragende L-förmige Fußteile angeschraubt.From US-A-5,439,122 is a one-sided shelf stand with the in first part of claim 1 features known. At the bottom At the end of the column there are two L-shaped protruding forward and backward Screwed on foot parts.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Nachteile, wie sie bei vergleichbaren Regalständern nach dem Stand der Technik auftreten, mindestens teilweise zu beseitigen. Eine speziellere Aufgabe der Erfindung kann darin gesehen werden, einen aus einer Säule und einem Fußteil-Ausleger zusammengesetzten einseitigen, in der Herstellung unaufwendigen Regalständer mit verringerter Kippneigung zu schaffen.The invention has for its object disadvantages, as in comparable Shelf stands according to the state of the art occur, at least partially eliminate. A more specific object of the invention can be be seen in it, one of a pillar and a foot bracket composite one-sided shelf stands that are inexpensive to manufacture with reduced tendency to tip over.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist in Anspruch 1 angegeben. Das danach vorgesehene Sicherungsteil bewirkt eine Abstützung der Regalsäule auf der bezüglich des Fußteil-Auslegers entgegengesetzten Seite, wodurch erreicht wird, daß sich der Schwerpunkt des gesamten Regalständers auch im völlig unbelasteten Zustand während der Montage in den Bereich zwischen den äußersten Füßen beziehungsweise Stützelementen verlagert und dadurch die Kippgefahr beseitigt wird. Für das Sicherungsteil braucht kein eigenes Bauteil gestaltet zu werden braucht; vielmehr wird zur Sicherung ein Bauteil herangezogen, das mit einem der Teile des Fußteil-Auslegers baugleich ist.The solution to this problem according to the invention is specified in claim 1. The securing part provided afterwards provides support the shelf column on the opposite one with respect to the foot section arm Side, which ensures that the focus of the whole Shelf stand even in the completely unloaded state during assembly the area between the outermost feet or support elements relocated and thereby eliminates the risk of tipping. For the Securing part does not need to be designed its own component; rather, a component is used for securing that with one of the Parts of the foot section boom is identical.
Die Maßnahmen nach den Ansprüchen 2 bis 5 sind unter dem Gesichtspunkt einfacher Montage und stabiler Sicherung bei geringem Platzbedarf günstig.The measures according to claims 2 to 5 are from the point of view easy installation and stable securing with a small footprint Cheap.
