Definitions

  • This invention relates to a connection system for uprights and shelves in general, in particular for shelving and tables.
  • a first known system consists of L-shaped uprights drilled for passage of screws for fixing the shelves.
  • Another system consists of L-shaped uprights comprising, on their inner surface, hook lugs formed by punching, for engagement by the bent edges of the shelves.
  • Another system consists of uprights comprising apertures in which angle pieces rigid with the shelf are engaged by insertion from the outside.
  • An object of the invention is to eliminate these drawbacks by providing a connection system of insertion type in which all the surfaces are smooth.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a system which is free from bolts and welds.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a connection system which is easy to assemble and disassemble.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a connection system which has a large reaction surface with distributed stresses.
  • connection system of insertion type comprises substantially an angular upright 2, a connection plate 4 and a shelf 6 with bent edges.
  • the angular upright 2 comprises in each of its two flanges 8 a plurality of pairs of downwardly converging inclined slots 10.
  • the two slots are symmetrical about the vertical corner 11, but uprights with non-symmetrical slots can be used.
  • the plate 4 which has a height less than the length of the slots 10, is shaped and faceted such as to form a partial lateral portion of a downwardly converging pyramidal frustum, with its two outer surfaces 12 comprising, in the two lower corners, steps 14 having their horizontal part 16 equal in length to the thickness of the flanges 8 of the upright 2.
  • the distance between the two steps 14 corresponds substantially to the distance between the lower edges 18 of the two slots 10, the distance between the upper corners 20 of the two outer surfaces 12 being less than the distance between the upper edges 22 of the two slots 10.
  • the shelf 6 has bent edges 24, meeting at corners 26 where reinforcements 28 are provided to ensure indeformability of the corner, which otherwise would not provide structure stability.
  • reinforcements 28 are provided to ensure indeformability of the corner, which otherwise would not provide structure stability.
  • a weld could be provided along the corner 26.
  • bent edges 24 of each there are provided two vertical notches 30 of height greater than the height of the plate 4 but less that the length of the slots 10.
  • Each notch 30 has that edge 32 further from the corner 26 substantially vertical and that edge 34 closer to the corner 26 inclined to said corner to an extent substantially equal to the inclination of the slots 10 to the corner 26.
  • the distance of the corners 36 of the inclined edges 34 from the corner 26 of the shelf 6 is substantially equal to the distance of the lower edges 18 of the slots 10 from the vertical corner 11 of the upright.
  • the shelf is mounted on the upright in the following manner.
  • the plates 4 are fitted by firstly inserting the edges of the outer lateral surfaces 12 into the central region of the slots 10, then pushing the plates downwards until the step portions 14 rest on the lower edge 18 of the slots 10.
  • the two outer surfaces 12 of the plate 4 are inclined at an angle of less than 90° to the corresponding flanges 8 of the upright, with the central portion 38 also converging downwards and all the straight lines lying in the plane of this surface intersecting the flanges 8 of the upright at 45°.
  • the structure obtained in this manner is such that the prolongations of the two slots 10 converge towards a point on the vertical corner 11 of the upright 2 which also constitutes the vertex of an ideal trapezoidal pyramid, of which the plate 4 forms part of the lateral surface.
  • connection between the plate 4 and the slots 10 is of high stability, in that the presence of the steps 14 means that the plate cannot undergo any movement in the horizontal plane which could cause it to disengage from the slots.
  • the shelf 6 is then fitted by positioning its corner 26 inside the corner 11 of the upright 2, with the notches 30 straddling the lateral surfaces 12 of the plate 4 and the oblique edges 34 substantially in contact with the inner surface of the lateral portions 12 of the plate to hence increase the stability of the connection obtained.
  • connection system of the invention offers numerous advantages, and in particular:
  • the plate can have its steps of such a width that its lateral portions project beyond the thickness of the upright.
  • the plate can be provided with projections which react with the flanges of the upright.
  • the angle between the lateral portions 12 of the plate 4 and the flanges 8 of the upright 2 is less than 90°, but the connection could be made using an angle of 90° provided the bent edge of the upright were to be adequately strengthened.
