Definitions

  • the invention relates to a storey tower for exhibiting goods with a plurality of storey floors and with spacing supports connecting the storey floors, which are in releasable engagement with engagement surfaces of the storey floors according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the engagement surfaces for the spacer supports are molded directly onto the storey floors. Since relatively large forces and moments must be transmitted in the area of the engagement between the spacer supports and the storey floors, which can result from the load on the storey floors but also from transverse loads on the storey towers the engagement surfaces on the floors are made of unbreakable material. If these engagement surfaces are made in one piece with the shelves, it is necessary to manufacture the entire shelves from this unbreakable material, although in the central area of the shelves, in view of the loads to be expected, much weaker material might be sufficient to provide the necessary load-bearing capacity.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a generic floor tower that provides the necessary engagement strength between the spacers and the floors, even if the floors themselves are made of a material of relatively low strength and correspondingly lower raw material costs in adaptation to the respective load.
  • the engagement surfaces are integrally formed on engagement elements, which in turn are connected to the floors and consist of a material of higher strength compared to the material of the floors.
  • the proposal of the invention makes it possible to use a cheap material for the shelves, which can also be processed cheaply.
  • foam plastic in particular polystyrene foam (styrofoam) or PU foam.
  • the production of multi-level floors made of polystyrene foam or polyurethane foam is not only less in terms of material costs, but especially in terms of molding costs than is the case with solid, unbreakable plastic.
  • the lower mold costs result from the fact that the pressures to be expected within the mold when processing foam plastics are significantly lower than the pressures during the manufacture of these parts from solid plastic, for example in the plastic injection or plastic molding process.
  • the engaging elements can be made of hard elastic plastics such as PVC, polyurethane, polyamide, polycarbonate, impact-resistant polystyrene or the like, e.g. be poured or sprayed. These engagement elements provide the necessary strength for engagement with the spacer supports. Repeated assembly of the spacer supports with the engaging elements is also possible without damaging the engaging surfaces.
  • the spacers be placed directly in corresponding engagement surfaces of the inferior material, e.g. Foam plastic, produced floors in engagement, so the required stability of the floor towers would not be guaranteed and there would also be the risk that the engagement surfaces would be damaged during the first assembly or disassembly so that no stable engagement and later assembly and disassembly operations stable locking would no longer be guaranteed.
  • the shelves themselves from a light material, such as foamed plastic, whereby it should be noted that the components of the floor towers should not only be as light as possible for shipping but also for storage.
  • the engaging elements with the shelves by a positive connection, a friction connection, an adhesive connection or the like.
  • a positive connection for the connection between the engagement elements and the floors, relatively large connecting surfaces are available on the engagement elements and on the floors, in which the forces necessary for the stability of the floor tower can be easily transmitted.
  • the size of these connecting surfaces has no influence on the design of the spacer elements, so that the spacer elements, which in turn can be made of unbreakable material, can be produced with a simple shape and low material consumption.
  • the engaging elements are preferably connected to the shelves by a plug connection.
  • the advantage of the plug-in connection is that different floors can be connected with different engagement elements as required, both for the manufacturer and for the end user, which reduces the manufacturing costs and simplifies storage. For example, it is possible to renew the relatively cheap storey floors while continuing to use the engaging elements.
  • the engagement elements can be designed such that they adapt to the respective floor level in terms of color and spatial shape and the impression of the one-piece production of floor level and engagement elements is retained.
  • it is also possible to bring about interesting optical effects in that the spatial shape of the engaging elements and / or the color of the engaging elements is clearly different from the spatial shape and / or the color of the floors.
  • the invention also creates the prerequisite for the connection between the engagement elements elements and the associated floors in the case of existing engagement between the engagement elements and the or the associated spacer supports is releasable. In this way, for example, the entire floor tower can be retained and only one or more floors can be replaced. It is not even necessary to remove the goods stored on the remaining floors. The importance of this advantage can be seen if one takes into account that interesting optical effects can be achieved by exchanging individual floors and that different floors of different shapes and sizes may be required to display different goods. If the engagement elements and the shelves are connected to one another by a plug connection, it proves to be particularly advantageous if a plug connection, the plug direction of which is essentially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the spacer supports, is provided. This makes it easier to replace individual storey floors with the existing floor tower. At the same time, the plug connection in this case can be designed in such a way that the plug connection is secured by loading the floors.
  • the invention can also be used in principle if the spacer supports pass through one another over the distance between several storey floors. It is preferred, however, for reasons of the variability of the system and for the sake of the light and small-volume collapsibility of the system to ensure that the respective engagement element for the engagement is designed for two mutually substantially aligned spacer supports extending from the respective storey floor in opposite directions. The spacers need then only have a length corresponding to the distance between two successive floors.
  • Claims 7 and 8 show various materials that can be used for the manufacture of the shelves and the engagement elements. The same materials are generally used for the manufacture of the spacer supports as for the manufacture of the engagement elements.
  • the shelves can basically be designed the same on both sides, i.e. symmetrical with respect to a horizontal median plane.
  • the bottom floors are provided with a ribbing on their underside, so that a sufficient load-bearing capacity is ensured in spite of the cheap and less solid material used.
  • FIG. 1 you can see a floor tower 10, which comprises a plurality of floors 12. Successive floors 12 are connected to each other in the example by two spacers 14. There may also be more than two spacers 14 between each. two successive floors 12 can be provided.
  • the shelves 12 are connected to the spacer supports 14 via an engagement element 16.
  • the shape of the engaging elements 16 results in particular from FIGS. 5, 6 and 7.
  • These engaging elements 16 have a half-ring chamber 18 which is open at the top and is intended for receiving a half-ring wall 20 of a floor 12 (FIG. 2).
  • the half ring wall 20 engages in the half ring chamber 18 in such a way that it is secured in the half ring chamber 18 by a load on the floor 12.
  • the half annular chamber 18 is supplemented on its radially inner side by a stiffening ring head half 22 to the closed semicircle and connected by a web 24 with a H albringflansch 26 upwardly and extends downward beyond the web 24, the upper part of the half-ring flange being designated by 26a and the lower part by 26b.
  • recesses 34a, 34b, 34c are arranged at the lower end of the spacer support 14.
  • the recess 34a is arranged in the region of a resilient part 14a of the spacer support 14, which is formed by two slots 14b.
  • the assembly of the spacer support 14 with the engagement element 16 takes place according to FIG. 5 simply by inserting the spacer support 14 with its lower end into the receiving shaft 30, the wedge-shaped cams 32a, 32b, 32c inevitably engaging in the recesses 34a, 34b, 34c after the resilient part 14a and the edges of the spacer have been deflected by the cams 32a, 32b, 32c.
  • a lower receiving shaft 36 is formed in the engagement element 16 (FIG. 6), which is located between the lower part 26b of the Half ring flange 26 and radial webs 38 is formed.
  • the wedge-shaped cams 40a, 40b and 40c are each offset in the circumferential direction with respect to the adjacent wedge-shaped cams 32a, 32b and 32c.
  • openings 42a, 42b, 42c are provided, which facilitate the injection molding of the engaging element 16 with the wedge-shaped cams.
  • the bottom floor 12 is provided on its underside with stiffening ribs 44, while according to FIG. 1 it is essentially smooth on its top side.
  • the half-ring wall 20 attaches to the ring flange 46 and is stiffened with respect to the latter by an end wall 48.
