Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a storage device consisting of one or more identical nestable, stackable and hookable lockers, and by assembly means for stacking and / or hanging the lockers.
  • Stackable racks are racks provided with means allowing them to be stacked one above the other and also prohibiting the movement of the racks stacked in the horizontal plane with respect to each other. It is known, for example, to stack two identical lockers, of substantially parallelepiped shape with two open sides, using a pair of U-shaped hooks and a pair of clips which cooperate with the lockers.
  • Conventional storage lockers have a number of drawbacks, including the high number of fasteners (two clips and two U-shaped hooks) for stacking two lockers one above the other, which increases the risk of losing these parts and also the difficulty of assembling the lockers; the mechanical connections between stacked racks are ensured only by U-shaped hooks and clips which must withstand significant mechanical forces; these compartments have grooves inside which serve as accommodation for the U-shaped hook branches and are difficult to access during cleaning.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy all these drawbacks by providing a storage device with stackable, hookable and hookable lockers, the assembly of which is easy and simplified.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a profile locker specially adapted for use in a storage device of the invention.
  • the storage device comprises several identical lockers, of substantially parallelepiped shape, nestable and stackable with fastening one above the other and hookable below a horizontal support element. It also includes assembly means for stacking and / or hanging the lockers.
  • Each locker consists of a horizontal bottom surrounded by side and rear walls and by a U-shaped front frame whose wings form front ends of the side walls.
  • the assembly means comprise removable connecting pieces and locking elements integral with the upper and lower ends of the wings of the front frame of the rack, so that stacking with two of said lockers is made using on the one hand the locking elements of the two front frames cooperating with each other and on the other hand removable connecting pieces interposed between the rear parts of the walls of the two compartments.
  • the removable connecting pieces are constituted by identical hooks in the form of an elongated U with substantially parallel branches.
  • the side walls of the lockers each have on the outside a upper housings and a lower horizontal housing to receive the branches of the U-shaped hooks, so as to stack the rack with only two hooks cooperating with the lateral sides of said lockers.
  • the branches of each hook are introduced from the rear side into a lower housing of the locker from above and into a corresponding upper housing of the locker from below.
  • Each side wall of the locker is provided at its upper end with a horizontal edge curved towards the outside of the locker.
  • the wings of the front frame are each provided, at its upper part, with a front opening which allows to receive a hook branch, so as to allow the rack to be hung under a horizontal board using two hooks. , each cooperating with the edge of a side wall through the corresponding front opening and with the upper surface of the horizontal board.
  • Each rack preferably has two rounded connecting edges connecting the bottom and the side walls, the concave faces of the connecting edges each serving as a bearing surface for one of the hook branches introduced into the corresponding lower housing.
  • Each hook advantageously has two identical branches, each of them consisting of a frustoconical head followed by a narrowed part and a straight part of regular and constant section.
  • the housings on the side walls of the lockers are preferably of circular section and provided with ribs preventing the inadvertent movement of the hooks in the housings.
  • the front frames of the lockers each have a depression at each lower angle which, during the assembly of the lockers, can come to rest on the corresponding upper edge of the lower locker serving as a surface d 'support.
  • the front frame comprises at each depression a vertical L-shaped leg and at the upper end of each wing a slot cooperating with one of the legs of the upper rack, so that the horizontal part of the L-shaped tab inserted inside the slot contributes to the suspension of the lower compartment.
  • the upper edges of the side walls of the rack can be provided with vertical perforations, so that the rack can be fixed to the lower surface of the support element by means of screws cooperating with said perforations.
  • the side and rear walls of the rack may have openings.
  • the storage device is made of molded plastic with the locking elements coming from molding.
  • the bottom of each locker may have patterns to limit the undesirable sliding of the objects stored in the lockers.
  • the storage device comprises an upper rack 1, a lower rack 2 and several hooks 3, 4 and 5 in the form of an elongated U.
  • Lockers 1 and 2 are identical and of substantially parallelepiped shape.
  • the hooks 3, 4 and 5 are also identical.
  • the lower rack 2 It is constituted by a horizontal bottom 6 surrounded by two perforated side walls 7 and 8 and a perforated rear wall 9, and by a front frame 10 in the shape of a U whose wings 11 and 12 form front ends of the side walls 7 and 8.
  • the front frame 10 and the rear wall 9 respectively constitute the front and rear sides of the rack.
  • Each side wall 7, 8 and rear 9 are slightly flared upwards.
  • Each side wall 7, 8 has at its upper end a horizontal rim 13, 14 curved towards the outside of the rack and is connected to the bottom 6 of the rack by a connecting rim 15, 16.
  • the front frame 10 of the rack has, at the lower corners of the U-shape, identical locking elements 17 and 18.
  • the locking element 18, shown in more detail in FIG. 2, is constituted by a concave depression 18a rounded and an L-shaped tab 18b arranged vertically with the horizontal part of L directed towards the front of the rack and defining a slot 18c with the wall of the depression 18a.
  • the wings 11 and 12 of the front frame 10 of the rack each have, at its upper end, a slot 19, 20 opening upwards along the corresponding upper edge 13, 14 and a front opening 21, 22, of circular profile , communicating with the concave face of the same upper edge 13, 14.
  • connection flange 15, 16 of the rack has on its concave face two lower eyelets 23 and 24 which form with the concave face of the connection flange a lower housing.
  • Each of the upper edges 13, 14 of the rack has, on its concave face, two upper eyelets 25 and 26 which form an upper housing.
  • the lower eyelets 23 and 24, as well as the upper eyelets and 26, are spaced from each other along the concave face of the flanges.
  • the eyelets 24 and 26, located towards the rear of the rack, are substantially annular.
  • the eyelet 25 is constituted by a ring 25a identical to the eyelet 26 and by a rib 25b offset forwardly relative to the ring 25a.
  • the hook 3 is on the farm of an elongated U, with two branches 27 and 28 identical and substantially parallel.
  • the branches 27 and 28 are connected by a bar 29 which is perpendicular to them and whose connection angles are rounded.
  • Each branch 27, 28 has a regular and constant section and a length preferably slightly greater than half of an upper edge of a side wall of the rack.
  • the branch 27 of the hook comprises a frustoconical head 30 followed by a narrowed part 31 and a straight part having in section a shape of regular and constant spider.
  • the branch 28 is identical.
  • Lockers 1 and 2 are nestable one inside the other.
  • the casing of the upper compartment 1 in the lower compartment 2 is easily done, without using hooks 3, 4 and 5, thanks to the slightly flared walls towards the top of the two compartments.
  • the front frame 10 of the upper compartment 1 is shifted forward with respect to that of the lower compartment 2. It is thus possible to nest a plurality of compartments to form a stack reducing the space occupied by the compartments unused.
  • Lockers 1 and 2 are stackable one above the other.
  • the stacking of the compartments 1 and 2 is carried out using, on the one hand, the locking elements 17 and 18 of the upper compartment 1 cooperating with the upper end of the wings 11 and 12 provided with the slots 19 and 20 of the lower compartment 2, and on the other hand two hooks 5, one of which is shown and which cooperate with the lower housings constituted by the eyelets 23, 24 of the upper compartment 1 and the upper housings constituted by the eyelets 25, 26 of the lower compartment 2.
  • the tabs 17b and 18b of the upper compartment 1 are introduced respectively into the slots 19 and 20 of the lower compartment 2.
  • the depressions 17a and 18a of the upper compartment 1 are placed directly on the upper end of substantially the same profile of the wings 11 and 12 of the lower compartment 2.
  • the branches 32 and 33 of the hook 5 are located respectively in the lower housing 23, 24 of the upper compartment 1 and the upper housing 25, 26 of the lower rack 2, the hook 5 being introduced into these housings from the rear towards the front of the lockers.
  • the narrowed parts 31 of the branches 32, 33 of the hooks 5 cooperate with the ribs of the central eyelets 23 and 25, identical or not to the rib 25b visible in FIG. 4, to prevent any untimely movement of said branches in their housings.
  • the L-shaped tabs 17b and 18b of the upper compartment 1 introduced inside the slots 19 and 20 of the lower compartment 2 also play a retaining role by means of their horizontal part cooperating with the upper end of the wings 11 and 12 of the lower locker 2. It is therefore possible not only to stack the lockers and 2, but also to hang the lower locker 2 below the upper locker 1, on the one hand thanks to the hooks and on the other hand thanks to the legs 17b, 18b of locker 1. We can therefore suspend lockers 1 and 2 one below the other.
  • the attachment of the rack 1 under a horizontal board 40 is produced by means of two identical hooks 3 and 4.
  • the lower branches 28 and 35 of the hooks 3 and 4 are introduced into the openings 21 and 22 of the front frame 10 of the rack 1 from the front to the back of the rack.
  • the upper branches 27 and 34 of the hooks 3 and 4 are placed above the board 40.
  • the internal concave face of the upper edges 13 and 14 of the rack 1 serves as a bearing surface for the branches 28 and 35 of the hooks 3 and 4
  • the upper face of the board 40 serves as a bearing surface for the branches 27 and 34 of the hooks 3 and 4.
  • the board 40 thus supports the weight of the rack 1 by means of the hooks 3 and 4.
  • the ribs of the central eyelets 25 of the upper flanges 13 and 14 cooperate with the narrowed parts of the branches 28 and 35 and limit their untimely movement in the position of attachment of the rack. We can then hang a plurality of lockers one below the other under the board 40.
  • the upper edges 13 and 14 of the rack 1 may have vertical perforations making it possible to fix the rack using screws under the board 40 or a similar support element. It is thus possible to increase the possibility of using the lockers fixed below a support element without using hooks as suspension elements, because the spacing between two parallel branches of the elongated U-shaped hooks allows the hooking of the lockers only under boards of defined thickness.
  • the example was given to explain the nesting, stacking and hanging of two compartments one above the other.
  • it is possible to assemble, by fitting, stacking and / or hanging, a plurality of racks one above the other.
  • Thanks to the particular shape of the front frame of the lockers it is possible to produce a regular stacking of lockers with an aesthetic vertical front face.
  • the bottom provided with its connecting edges of convex external profile allows an effective cleaning of the rack.
  • the stacking of two compartments requires only two hooks in the form of an elongated U.
  • the regular and symmetrical shape of the hooks allows very easy assembly of the lockers.
  • the upper rack in the stacking position, has its front frame placed directly on the upper ends of the wings of the front frame of the immediately lower rack, which allows the storage device to support heavy weights.
