  • the beam and cross member being juxtaposed with each slot in the member engaging a recess in the beam and the longitudinal element between the slots the ends of the cross member between the slots and the end engaging with the beam within the first and second flanges of the beam and an interior surface of the beam.
  • the recesses mirror one another in plan view of the beam.
  • the recesses are dissimilar in plan view of the beam.
  • a method of fabricating a shelving unit made up of a beam and a cross member; the beam being in the form of a longitudinal member with parallel first and second side edges; the first and second side edges each having an integral projecting flange; the outer edge of the first side edge remote from the member having a first lip projecting towards a corresponding second lip on the second side edge remote from the member from the other flange so that the member, flanges and lips in combination give the beam a C- shaped cross section; a first recess provided in an edge of the first lip remote from its flange; a second recess provided on an edge of the second lip remote from its flange; the first and second recesses lying on a common transverse axis of the longitudinal member intermediate ends of the beam and spaced by a first distance; and the cross member being in the form of a longitudinal element with parallel first and second side edges; the first and second side edges each having an integral projecting flange; the element and f

  • Figure 7 shows possible variants of a part of the first component of Figure 2.
  • the figures 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 variously show an assembled shelving unit 11 and components thereof comprising a beam B and a cross member C.
  • the beam B is in the form of a longitudinal member 12 with longitudinal axis 13 and parallel first and second side edges respectively side edges 14, 15.
  • the first side edge 14 and second side edge 15 each have an integral projecting flange, respectively flanges 16, 17.
  • Outer edge 18 of the first side edge 14 remote from the member 12 has a first lip 19 projecting towards a corresponding second lip 20 on the second side edge 15 remote from the member 12.
  • the member 12, flanges 16, 17 and lips 19 20 in combination give the beam B a C-shaped cross section ( Figure 3).
  • a first recess 21 is provided in an edge 22 of the first lip 19 remote from its flange 16.
  • a second recess 23 is provided on an edge 24 of the second lip 20 remote from its flangel7.
  • the first recess 21 and second recess 22 lie on a common transverse axis 25 of the longitudinal member 12 intermediate ends el, e2 of the member 12.
  • the recesses 21, 22 are spaced by a first distance Dl.
  • Figure 7 shows examples of alternative types of pairs of recesses in the beam B for receiving one end of the cross member C as will be described hereafter. All are shown in lips 19, 20 in beam B with longitudinal axis 13. Only the edges of the lips remote from the member 12 are shown. Each pair of recesses lie on a common transverse axis 25 of beam B. 7 A to 7C show a range of mirror image recesses with members of the pair being of similar shape. 7D and 7E show pairs of dissimilar recesses with a slot T and curve G.

  • the first side edge 34 and second side edge 35 each having an integral projecting flange respectively flanges 36, 37.
  • the element 32 and flanges 36, 37 in combination give the cross member a U-shaped cross section
  • the end CI of the cross member C is inserted into the beam B so that the end CI abuts inner face 45 of the longitudinal member 12 and the longitudinal axis 13 of the member 12 aligns with longitudinal axis 33 of the longitudinal element 32.
  • the cross member C is then rotated about axis 33 to cause first slot 41 in the element 32 to engage with first recess 21 in the member 12 and thereafter with further rotation the second slot 42 engages with second recess 22.
  • the distances Dl, D2 are selected to provide for the cross member C to be securely engaged with beam B on completion of rotation to ensure for the region of the cross member C within the beam B in the vicinity of end CI to closely abut the interior of the beam B with the flanges 16, 17 lock in place within the beam.
  • the invention provides for the ready construction of storage and support means making use of relatively simple beam and cross members which can be readily combined in a variety of shelving and/or storage configurations.
