Definitions

  • the invention relates to a storage structure comprising juxtaposed, forwardly open boxes, being divided by separator sheets into compartments lying above each other and capable of receiving material, e.g., fittings.
  • the whole structure being made substantially of sheet metal parts joined to each other by dismountable horizontal rod-fastening means.
  • the present invention relates to a storage structure comprising juxtaposed, forwardly open boxes consisting of vertically oriented U-bent sheets, the adjacent vertical edges of which engage one another in clamping manner, further comprising horizontal rods extending through all boxes, said rods being arrested against a longitudinal shifi and separator sheets dividing the boxes to form containers, said separator sheets being adapted to be suspended on the rods.
  • FIG. 1 is a front elevation of a bearing support
  • FIG. 2 is asection along Il-ll ofFIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a section along IIllIl of FIG. 1 with separator sheets removed and FIG. 4 is a section of FIG. 3 on a larger scale.
  • the storage structure shown is provided with juxtaposed boxes 1 which are connected with one another.
  • the storage structure is composed of two boxes, but more boxes may of course be used.
  • Each box I has two sidewalls 2, 3 and a rear wall 4, which are formed from a U- bent metal sheet.
  • the vertical edge portions 5, 6 of the 5, 6 2,3 are firstly bent outwardly and then, at a distance therefrom, rearwardly through 90 and thereby form a rearwardly open channel.
  • the arrangement is such that the edge portion 6 of the sidewall 3 of one box may be inserted in clamping manner over the edge portion 5 of the sidewall 2 of the adjacent box.
  • the rods 8 carry end discs abutting the sidewalls or arranged at a short distance therefrom, which end discs are secured on the outside. Furthermore, spacer sleeves 9 which abut on the sidewalls 2, 3 are arranged (see FIG. 3) on the rods 8, at points located between the sidewalls 2, 3 of the adjacent boxes 1.
  • the individual boxes 1 may be divided into superposed containers by bent separator sheets 10 which are supported on the rods 8 (see FIG. 2).
  • the separator sheets 10 have a horizontal base part 11 to a rear end of which is connected a vertical rear part 12 projecting upwardly and downwardly with respect to the base part, and a front end of which is bent obliquely upwardly and passes into a vertical front part 13, which at its upper end is bent to form a downwardly open U.
  • each separator sheet 10 extends with its base part 11 and its front part 13 to the immediate vicinity of the sidewalls 2, 3 and the rear part 12 abuts on the rear wall 4 of the box in question.
  • the rear region of the base part 1 l of each separator sheet lies on a rear rod 8, the downwardly projecting section of the rear part 12 gripping behind this rod.
  • the upper bent end of the front part 13 of each separator sheet grips over a front rod 8 and is supported thereon.
  • a front plate 14 is inserted which, with its bent lower end, lies on the upper end of the front part 13 of the separator sheet 10 and, by its bent upper end, is suspended from the next highest front rod 8 (see FIG. 2).
  • the separator sheets 10 may also be constructed to receive vertical separator walls 15 (see uppermost container) and to divide the containers into compartments.
  • the storage structure described is particularly suitable for holding small parts, for example fittings, etc.
  • the storage structure is very rigid although it is constructed of sheet metal parts.
  • the separator sheets, 10 front sheets 14 and separator walls 15 may be inserted or removed according to requirements.
  • Storage structure comprising juxtaposed, forwardly open boxes consisting of vertically oriented U-bent sheets forming continuous sidewalls and rear walls, the adjacent forward vertical edge areas of which engage one another in clamping manner, wherein the engaging edge areas of said boxes are bent laterally outwardly and rearwardly and each edge area forms in cross section an outward extending rearwardly open channel, one edge area of one box embracing an adjacent edge area of a laterally adjacent box, further comprising horizontal rods extending through all boxes, said rods being arrested against substantial longitudinal shift, and separator sheets dividing the boxes to form containers, said separator sheets being adapted to be suspended on the rods.
  • the storage structure of claim 1 further comprising cover sheets resting on top of the U-bent sheets and extending downward about upper edge areas thereof.
  • the separator sheets comprise a horizontal base part to a rear end of which is connected a vertical rear part projecting upwardly and downwardly with respect to the base part, and a front end of which base part is bent obliquely upwardly and integrally forms a vertical front part which at its upper end is bent to form a downwardly open U.
