Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an aluminum shelf.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, steel shelves are often used as shelves for placing and storing or displaying commodities or the like. In this steel shelf, a large number of engaging holes are provided in a pillar formed of a material such as an angle material, and a steel shelf is fixed to the selected engaging hole with a bolt or the like, or the steel shelf is attached to the shelf. The support post and the shelf board are connected by inserting and engaging the protruding engagement claw into the selected engagement hole.

[0003] However, steel shelves have the problem of being heavy and difficult to handle, and have the problem of being susceptible to moisture and moisture and causing rust due to long-term use. Therefore, shelves made of lightweight and rust-resistant aluminum material are provided.However, aluminum is softer than steel, so forming notches such as holes reduces the strength, so it is thicker than steel. Must be used.

[0004] For this reason, in the conventional aluminum shelves, the connection between the connecting frame member and the column connecting the front and rear columns and the connection between the reinforcing frame member and the column connecting the right and left columns are welded.

[0005]

In the conventional aluminum shelves, since the connection between the support and the connecting frame material and the connection between the support and the reinforcing frame material are performed by welding, the shelves are transported in an assembled state. There is a problem that is troublesome.

The present invention has been proposed in view of the above, and an object of the present invention is to provide an aluminum shelf that is lightweight, easy to handle, and easy to assemble on site.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides an aluminum column standing at four corners, a connecting frame member mounted between columns located in front and rear,
An aluminum shelf composed of a reinforcing frame material for connecting columns located on the left and right, and a shelf plate arranged in a space formed by four columns, and a plurality of vertical grooves on a peripheral surface of the column. Engraved along the longitudinal direction, a pair of holding pieces are respectively engaged with the longitudinal grooves located adjacent to each other, and the reinforcing frame material is fitted to one of the holding pieces of the pair of holding pieces, One of the holding pieces fitted with the reinforcing frame member and the other holding piece are fastened and fixed together to connect the reinforcing frame member to the support.

[0008]

According to the present invention, a plurality of vertical grooves are engraved along the longitudinal direction on the peripheral surface of the column, and one end of each of the vertical grooves is engaged with the adjacent vertical groove. Because it is configured to hold the pillar with one piece, the reinforcing frame material is fitted and fixed to one of the pair of holding pieces, and the two holding pieces of the holding tool are fixed together. In addition to being able to place a reinforcement frame or shelf without lowering the strength of the column, the reinforcement frame can be held at any position on the column, and the reinforcement frame can be positioned at any height. become.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a main part taken out, FIG. 2 is an overall perspective view of an aluminum shelf, and FIG. . This aluminum shelf is composed of a column (1) that stands upright at four corners and a connection frame (2) that connects columns (1a) and (1b) located in front and rear.
And a reinforcing frame member (3) for connecting the columns (1a) and (1a) located on the left and right sides, and a shelf plate (4).

The column (1) is formed of an aluminum cylindrical body, and has a dovetail groove on its outer peripheral surface along the axis.
A vertical groove (5) composed of a (retained groove) is engraved at four equally-spaced positions in the circumferential direction. A rib (6) protrudes. The ribs (6) are formed by cutting a series of rib walls at a predetermined pitch.

A pair of holding pieces (7) and (7) are individually fitted in two adjacent vertical grooves (5) (5) of the vertical grooves (5) formed in the column (1). . Each of the holding pieces (7) has a hook portion (8) fitted into the vertical groove (5), an arc-shaped portion (9) extending from the end of the hook portion (8) along the column peripheral surface, and an arc-shaped portion (9). The protruding piece portion (10) extending from the end of the portion (9) is formed, and the angle between the protruding piece portion (10) and the hook portion (8) is formed at 45 degrees.

Then, the pair of holding pieces (7) are respectively
(5) When engaged with (5), a gap is formed between the protruding pieces (10) located in the facing state, and the connecting frame material is provided on one of the protruding pieces (10). (2) and reinforcement frame material
(3), and the projecting piece (10) into which the connecting frame material (2) and the reinforcing frame material (3) are inserted and the other projecting piece (10) are jointed with bolts (11). By tightening, a pair of holding pieces (7)
The wall portion of (1) is pinched and fixed.

In the aluminum shelf constructed as described above, since the pair of holding pieces (7) are engaged and fixed to the support (1) by fastening, the mounting height (position) of the holding pieces (7) is adjusted. ) Can be arbitrarily selected and determined. FIG.
As shown in (1), by setting the lowermost reinforcing frame member (3) on the front side higher, the luggage can be stored in the shelf while being on the floor.

In the above description, the column (1) and the reinforcing frame (3)
The connection structure between the support (1) and the connection frame (2) is the same. In addition, caster wheels may be attached to the lower end of the column (1).

The aluminum shelves having the above-described structure are provided with the columns (1) arranged so that the ribs (6) face each other.
(1) A pair of holding pieces (7) and a connection frame material for the upper and lower parts of each other
(2) to assemble and form side frame portions, and connect the left and right side frame portions to each other using a pair of holding pieces (7) and a reinforcing frame material (3). . This reinforcement frame material (3)
Are arranged at least two on the front and rear sides.
Then, the shelf (4) is supported on the support (1) by hooking the engaging claws of the shelf (4) on the ribs (6) projecting from the peripheral surface of each support (1).

[0016]

According to the present invention, a plurality of vertical grooves are engraved in the peripheral surface of the column along the longitudinal direction, and one end of each of the vertical grooves is engaged with the adjacent vertical groove. Because it is configured to hold the pillar with one piece, the reinforcing frame material is fitted and fixed to one of the pair of holding pieces, and the two holding pieces of the holding tool are fixed together. In addition to being able to place a reinforcement frame or shelf without lowering the strength of the column, the reinforcement frame can be held at any position on the column, and the reinforcement frame can be positioned at any height. become.
