Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Ablage für ein Kühlgerät, insbesondere eine Flaschenablage für einen Flaschenlagerkühlschrank zur temperierten Lagerung von Flaschen, insbesondere von Weinflaschen.The present invention relates to a shelf for a refrigerator, in particular a Bottle rack for a bottle storage refrigerator for temperature-controlled storage of Bottles, in particular wine bottles.

Ein solcher Flaschenlagerschrank umfasst im Allgemeinen ein wärmeisolierendes Gehäuse, eine Kältemaschine zum Kühlen eines Lagerraumes im Inneren des Gehäuses, und in diesem Lagerraum eine Mehrzahl von Ablagen zur Aufnahme von Flaschen. Eine solche Ablage umfasst eine Mehrzahl von Schalen, die jeweils geformt sind, um eine Flasche liegend aufzunehmen, und einen Rahmen, an dem die Schalen nebeneinander gehalten sind. Eine solche Ablage mit Schulen ist Z.B in DE-A-19751308 offenbart.Such a bottle storage cabinet generally comprises a heat-insulating Housing, a chiller for cooling a storage space inside the housing, and in this storage room a plurality of shelves for holding bottles. A such tray comprises a plurality of trays, each shaped to one Bottle lying down, and a frame on which the bowls side by side are held. Such a filing with schools is Z.B in DE-A-19751308.

Bei gewöhnlichen Kühlschränken ist es unter anderem gängige Praxis, im Lagerraum eines solchen Kühlschrankes zu montierende Kühlgutablagen aus einer tragekräftigen Glasplatte zu fertigen, deren Ränder mit einem Kunststoff-Rahmen umspritzt sind. Wenn eine solche Ablage im Kältegerät montiert ist, ist es der Rahmen, der die Innenwand des Lagerraumes berührt und an dieser befestigt ist; die Glasplatte selber ist nicht in unmittelbarem Kontakt mit der Innenwand und ist nur über ihren Rahmen abgestützt. Diese Technik ermöglicht eine wirtschaftliche Fertigung der Ablagen, sie ist jedoch auf eine Flaschenablage mit mehreren nebeneinanderliegenden Schalen nicht übertragbar, da bei einer solchen Flaschenablage Biegebelastungen durch das Gewicht der Ablage selbst und von darauf gelagerten Flaschen nur von Stegen des Rahmens aufgefangen werden kann, die die Schalen miteinander verbinden. Würde man diese in bekannter Weise aus Kunststoff-Spritzguss fertigen, so müsste man entweder eine starke Durchbiegung der Stege in Kauf nehmen, was unerwünscht ist, da die Aufhängung solcher Stege an den Seitenwänden des Lagerraumes unsicher ist und die Gefahr besteht, dass eine übermäßig beladene Ablage aus ihrer Aufhängung herausbricht und abstürzt, oder man müsste die Stege so stark machen, dass sie einen nicht zu vernachlässigen Anteil der Höhe des Innenraumes in Anspruch nehmen und so dessen nutzbares Volumen reduzieren, was ebenfalls unerwünscht ist. Die bei Flaschenablage aus Kunststoffspritzguss vorstehend geschilderte Problematik tritt auch in ähnlicher Form bei aus Kunststoffspritzguss gefertigten Kühlgutablagen auf.In common refrigerators, it is common practice, among other things, in the storage room Such a refrigerator to be mounted Kühlgutablagen of a strong To produce glass plate, whose edges are encapsulated with a plastic frame. If such a shelf is mounted in the refrigeration unit, it is the frame that covers the inner wall of the Storage room touched and attached to this; the glass plate itself is not in in direct contact with the inner wall and is supported only by its frame. This technique allows for economical production of the shelves, but it is on a bottle rack with several adjacent shells not transferable, because in such a bottle tray bending loads due to the weight of the tray itself and from bottles stored on it only from bars of the frame that can connect the bowls. Would you like this in known Made of plastic injection molding, so you would either have a strong deflection the webs in purchase, which is undesirable because the suspension of such Webs on the side walls of the storage room is uncertain and there is a risk that an excessively loaded tray breaks out of its suspension and crashes, or you would have to make the bars so strong that they have a not negligible share take the height of the interior and so its usable volume reduce, which is also undesirable. The bottle storage off Plastic injection molding described above also occurs in a similar form made of plastic injection molded refrigerated goods trays.

Selbstverständlich wäre es möglich, den Rahmen aus einem Material mit höherem E-Modul als dem der herkömmlicherweise für die Rahmen von Kältegeräteablagen verwendeten Kunststoffe, insbesondere aus Metall, zu fertigen, doch würde dies die Herstellungskosten deutlich erhöhen, da ein solches Metall, um einen einteiligen Rahmen zu erzeugen, im Druckguss verarbeitet werden müsste oder bei Verwendung in einem mehrteiligen Rahmen zusätzliche Schritte des Zusammenfügens der einzelnen Rahmenteile erforderlich würden.Of course it would be possible, the frame of a material with a higher modulus of elasticity than that of conventionally for the frame of refrigeration appliance trays used, in particular of metal, but this would be the Production costs increase significantly, since such a metal to a one-piece frame to produce, die-cast or use in one multi-part framework additional steps of assembling the individual Frame parts would be required.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, eine Ablage für ein Kühlgerät, insbesondere eine Flaschenablage für einen Flaschenlagerkühlschrank anzugeben, die preiswert realisierbar und gleichzeitig hoch belastbar ist.Object of the present invention is a shelf for a refrigerator, in particular a Specify bottle storage for a bottle storage refrigerator, which can be realized inexpensively and at the same time is highly resilient.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass von den Querstreben des Rahmens einer Ablage wenigstens eine auf wenigstens einem Teil ihres Querschnittes durch ein Strangpressprofil aus einem Material gebildet ist, das einen höheren Elastizitätsmodul aufweist als den des Materials, das wenigstens für die Längsstreben des Rahmens verwendet ist. Hierdurch wird einer aus Kunststoffspritzguss gefertigten Kühlgutablage zum Einsatz in einem Kühlraum eines Kühlschranks eine sehr hohe Tragsteifigkeit verliehen.The object is achieved in that of the cross struts of Frame of a shelf at least one on at least a part of its cross section is formed by an extruded profile of a material that has a higher Elastic modulus than that of the material that is at least for the longitudinal struts of Frame is used. As a result, one made of plastic injection molding Refrigerated goods bin for use in a refrigerator of a refrigerator a very high Support stiffness awarded.

Bei diesem Material kann es sich insbesondere um Aluminium oder Stahl handeln. Vorzugsweise weisen die Querstreben neben dem Strangpressprofil auch Querstege auf, die das Strangpressprofil tragen oder aufnehmen, und die, mit den Längsstreben einteilig verbunden, aus Kunststoff-Spritzguss geformt sind.This material may in particular be aluminum or steel. Preferably, the cross struts also have transverse webs in addition to the extruded profile, which carry or record the extruded profile, and the one-piece with the longitudinal struts connected, are molded from plastic injection molding.

Ein solches Strangpressprofil kann insbesondere in eine nach unten offene Nut eines der Querstege eingefügt sein, so dass der mittlere Bereich eines solchen Quersteges unter Biegebelastung auf dem Strangpressprofil ruhen kann.Such an extruded profile can in particular in a downwardly open groove of the Be inserted transverse webs, so that the central region of such a crosspiece under Bending stress on the extruded profile can rest.

Um bei geringem Materialaufwand des Strangpressprofils eine starke Stützwirkung zu erreichen, sollte das Strangpressprofil im Querschnitt höher als breit sein. Es kann zum Beispiel einen hochkant rechteckigen Querschnitt haben. Da die seitliche Einschließung eines solchen Profils in die Nut des Quersteges ein seitliches Ausweichen des Strangpressprofils unter Biegebelastung verhindert, ist die Belastbarkeit einer aus dem Strangpressprofil und dem diese seitlich umgebendem Quersteg zusammengesetzten Strebe deutlich größer als die Summe der Einzelbelastbarkeiten des Profils und des Steges.At a low material cost of the extruded profile to a strong support effect reach, the extruded profile should be higher in cross-section than wide. It can for Example have an upright rectangular cross-section. Since the lateral enclosure of such a profile in the groove of the crosspiece a lateral deflection of the Extruded profiles prevented under bending stress, the load capacity is one of the Extruded profile and the laterally surrounding transverse web composite Strive significantly larger than the sum of the individual load capacities of the profile and the Web.

Das Strangpressprofil kann auch so angeordnet sein, dass es eine Außenseite eines der Querstege überdeckt. Insbesondere wenn für das Strangpressprofil ein Metall wie etwa Aluminium oder Stahl verwendet ist, kann auf diese Weise der gesamten Ablage eine hochwertige Anmutung verliehen werden.The extruded profile can also be arranged so that it has an outer side of one of Crossbars covered. In particular, if for the extruded profile, a metal such as Aluminum or steel used, this way the entire tray can be one high-quality appearance will be awarded.

Ein Querschnitt eines solchen Strangpressprofils in U- oder C-Form erleichtert dessen Befestigung an dem Quersteg durch Aufstecken oder Aufclipsen quer zur Längsrichtung oder Aufschieben in Längsrichtung des Profils.A cross section of such an extruded profile in U or C shape facilitates its Attachment to the crossbar by attaching or clipping transverse to the longitudinal direction or sliding in the longitudinal direction of the profile.

Vorzugsweise weist wenigstens eine der Querstreben eine kontinuierliche Auflagefläche auf, auf der Schalen zur Ablage von Flaschen voneinander beabstandet abgestützt sind. In den Zwischenräumen zwischen den Schalen können diese Auflageflächen jeweils von Abstandhalterkörpem belegt sein, die eine Platzierung der Schalen in regelmäßigen Abständen ohne die Notwendigkeit des Maßnehmens gewährleisten. Derartige Abstandhalterkörper können in unterschiedlichen Breiten bereitgestellt werden, um in modularer Weise Flaschenablagen zu schaffen, die eine platzsparende Lagerung von Flaschen mit unterschiedlichen Durchmessern ermöglichen.Preferably, at least one of the transverse struts has a continuous support surface on, are supported on the trays for storing bottles spaced from each other. In the spaces between the shells, these bearing surfaces can each of Abstandhalterkörpem be occupied, which is a placement of the shells in regular Ensure distances without the need for taking measurements. such Spacer bodies can be provided in different widths to fit in Modular way to create bottle trays, which saves space Allow bottles with different diameters.

Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden Ausführungsbeispielen unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügten Figuren. Die Erfindung ist am Beispiel einer Flaschenablage näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

Die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Flaschenablage setzt sich zusammen aus einem vierseitigen Rahmen 1 mit Längsstreben 2 und Querstreben 3. Im in einem Flaschenlagerschrank montierten Zustand erstrecken sich die Längsstreben 2 entlang der Seitenwände von dessen Lagerraum. Ein zylindrischer Zapfen 4 und eine horizontal langgestreckte Rippe 7 sind vorgesehen, um in Führungsaussparungen der Seitenwand einzugreifen und die Ablage so abzustützen.The bottle rack shown in Fig. 1 is composed of a four-sided Frame 1 with longitudinal struts 2 and cross struts 3. Im in a bottle storage cabinet mounted state, the longitudinal struts 2 extend along the side walls of its storeroom. A cylindrical pin 4 and a horizontally elongated rib. 7 are provided to engage in guide recesses of the side wall and the Support so tray.

Die Querstreben 3, 6 erstrecken sich jeweils entlang einer Rückwand bzw. einer Tür des Lagerschrankes. Wie besser in dem Schnitt der Fig. 2 zu erkennen ist, haben die Querstreben 3, 6 jeweils einen zweiteiligen Aufbau mit einem Quersteg 7, 8, der einteilig mit den Längsstreben 2 aus Kunststoff gespritzt ist, und einen den Quersteg 7 bzw. 8 versteifenden Strangpressprofil 9, 10 aus Metall, insbesondere aus Aluminium oder rostfreiem Stahl.The transverse struts 3, 6 each extend along a rear wall or a door of the Storage cabinet. As can be seen better in the section of Fig. 2, have the Cross struts 3, 6 each have a two-part construction with a transverse web 7, 8, the one-piece is injected with the longitudinal struts 2 made of plastic, and a crosspiece 7 and 8, respectively stiffening extruded profile 9, 10 made of metal, in particular aluminum or stainless steel.

Bei der der Rückwand des Lagerschrankes zugewandten Querstrebe 6 hat das Strangpressprofil 10 einen hochkant rechteckigen Querschnitt und füllt eine nach unten offene Nut des Quersteges 8 formschlüssig aus. Das Strangpressprofil 10 hat somit lediglich eine Versteifungsfunktion, für einen Benutzer sichtbar ist es normalerweise nicht.When the rear wall of the storage cabinet facing cross member 6 has Extruded profile 10 a rectangular rectangular cross section and fills one down open groove of the cross bar 8 form-fitting. The extruded profile 10 thus has just a stiffening feature, it is not usually visible to a user.

Anstatt in eine Nut könnte das Strangpressprofil 10 auch in eine sich über die Länge der Querstrebe 6 erstreckende Bohrung eingefügt sein, eine solche Bohrung ist jedoch im Spritzguss schwieriger zu erzeugen als die in der Figur gezeigte Nut, so dass die Nut die bevorzugte Variante ist.Rather than in a groove, the extruded profile 10 could also be in a over the length of Cross bar be inserted 6 extending bore, but such a hole is in Injection molding difficult to produce than the groove shown in the figure, so that the groove the preferred variant.

Bei der der Tür zugewandten Querstrebe 3 liegt der mit den Längsstreben 2 einteilige Steg 7 im Inneren und ist an drei Seiten von dem C-förmigen Strangpressprofil 9 umgeben und macht so den Quersteg 7 für einen Betrachter fast völlig unsichtbar. Das Strangpressprofil 9 ist in Längsrichtung des Querstegs 7 verschiebbar und kann so auf den Rahmen 2 aufgesteckt oder von ihm abgenommen werden, wenn der Rahmen 2 nicht im Lagerschrank montiert ist. Ein Strangpressprofil mit U-förmigem Querschnitt könnte auch in Längsrichtung der Längsstreben 2 auf den Quersteg 7 aufgesteckt und abgenommen werden. Denkbar wäre auch, dem Quersteg einen teilweise flexiblen Querschnitt mit biegsamen Laschen zu geben, die beim Aufstecken eines C-Profils in Längsrichtung der Längsstreben 2 zunächst nachgeben und, sobald das Profil seine Endposition erreicht hat, hinter die einwärts gerichteten Endabschnitte des Profils eingreifen und ein Abziehen in entgegengesetzter Richtung verhindern.When the door facing cross member 3 is the one with the longitudinal struts 2 Bridge 7 inside and is on three sides of the C-shaped extruded. 9 surrounded and thus makes the crossbar 7 for a viewer almost completely invisible. The Extruded profile 9 is displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the cross bar 7 and can so on the frame 2 plugged or removed from him, if the frame 2 not is mounted in the storage cabinet. An extruded profile with U-shaped cross-section could also attached in the longitudinal direction of the longitudinal struts 2 on the transverse web 7 and be removed. It would also be conceivable, the crossbar a partially flexible Cross section with flexible tabs, which when plugging a C-profile in First give way longitudinal direction of the longitudinal struts 2 and, as soon as the profile his End position has reached behind the inward end portions of the profile engage and prevent peeling in the opposite direction.

An den einander zugewandten Innenseiten der Stege 7, 8 sind Auflageflächen 11, 12 angeformt, die sich über die gesamte Länge der Stege 7, 8 erstrecken und zur Versteifung jeweils durch einen Balken 13 mit hochkant rechteckigem Querschnitt abgeschlossen sind. Auf den Auflageflächen 11 sind Flaschenschalen 14 abgestützt. Die aus Kunststoff gespritzten Flaschenschalen 14 haben im Wesentlichen die Form eines Zylinderwandsegmentes, das an Längs- und Querrändern jeweils durch vertikal nach unten gerichtete Wände 15, 16 versteift ist. Die an die Längsenden der Schale 14 angeformten Wände 15 greifen jeweils zwischen einen Quersteg 7, 8 und den daran angeformten Balken 13 ein und sind auf der dazwischenliegenden Auflagefläche 11 abgestützt. Das Vorhandensein der Balken 13 verhindert, dass die nur lose aufliegenden Schalen 14 durch eine Drehung oder infolge von Durchbiegung bei Überlastung von den Auflageflächen 11 abgleiten und abstürzen können.At the mutually facing inner sides of the webs 7, 8 are bearing surfaces 11, 12th formed, which extend over the entire length of the webs 7, 8 and the Stiffening completed by a bar 13 with upright rectangular cross section are. On the bearing surfaces 11 bottle cups 14 are supported. From Plastic molded bottle cups 14 have essentially the shape of a Cylinder wall segment, the longitudinal and transverse edges respectively by vertically to downwardly directed walls 15, 16 is stiffened. The at the longitudinal ends of the shell 14th molded walls 15 each engage between a transverse web 7, 8 and the thereto molded bar 13 and are on the intermediate support surface eleventh supported. The presence of the beams 13 prevents the only loosely resting Shells 14 by rotation or due to deflection in overload of the Sliding surfaces 11 and can crash.

Eine Mehrzahl von sich an der Oberseite der Schale 14 in Längsrichtung erstreckenden flachen Rippen 17 verhindert einen großflächigen Kontakt zwischen der Schale 14 und einer darauf liegenden Flasche, so dass zwischen Schale und Flasche sich nicht dauerhaft Kondenswasser sammeln kann, das zu einer Beschädigung eines Flaschenetiketts führen könnte.A plurality of extending at the top of the shell 14 in the longitudinal direction flat ribs 17 prevents large-area contact between the shell 14 and a bottle lying on it, so that between bowl and bottle not permanently collect condensation, which can damage a Bottle labels could result.

Wie Fig. 1 zeigt, sind in Zwischenräumen zwischen den Schalen 14 die Auflageflächen 11 durch Abstandhalterkörper 18 verdeckt. Diese Abstandhalterkörper 18, die zum Beispiel aus einem gummiartigen Material bestehen können, sind jeweils kraftschlüssig zwischen den Quersteg 7 oder 8 und den zugehörigen Balken 13 eingesteckt. Von diesen Abstandhalterkörpern 18 können mehrere Sätze in unterschiedlicher Breite als Zubehör zu der erfindungsgemäßen Ablage zur Verfügung gestellt werden, deren Breiten jeweils so an die des Rahmens 1 angepasst sind, dass sie die gleichmäßig beabstandete Platzierung unterschiedlicher Zahlen von Schalen 14 in dem Rahmen 1 ermöglichen.As shown in FIG. 1, the support surfaces 11 are in intermediate spaces between the shells 14 covered by spacer body 18. These spacer bodies 18, for example can consist of a rubber-like material, each frictionally between the transverse web 7 or 8 and the associated beam 13 inserted. Of these Spacer bodies 18 may be several sets of different widths as accessories be made available to the tray according to the invention, the widths each adapted to the frame 1 so as to be evenly spaced Placement of different numbers of shells 14 in the frame 1 allow.

Fig. 3 zeigt einen Längsschnitt durch eine zweite Ausgestaltung einer erfindungsgemäßen Ablage. Die Querstreben 3, 6 dieser Ausgestaltung unterscheiden sich von denen der Fig. 2 durch die Gestalt der Auflageflächen 11. Diese sind bei der Ausgestaltung der Fig. 3 nicht durch einen Balken abgeschlossen, statt dessen sind sie in regelmäßigen Abständen mit Löchern 12 versehen, durch die jeweils eine Schraube 19 hindurchgesteckt und in einer Gewindebohrung 20 einer Schale 14 festgezogen werden kann. Die Schalen 14 sind somit nicht nur lose aufgelegt, sondern dauerhaft am Rahmen 1 befestigt.Fig. 3 shows a longitudinal section through a second embodiment of an inventive Shelf. The transverse struts 3, 6 of this embodiment differ from those of FIG. 2 by the shape of the bearing surfaces 11. These are in the embodiment of FIG. 3rd not completed by a bar, instead they are in regular Provided intervals with holes 12, inserted through each one screw 19 and tightened in a threaded hole 20 of a shell 14 can. The shells 14 are thus not only loosely placed, but permanently on the frame 1 attached.

Durch die Position der Bohrungen in den Auflageflächen 11 und der Gewindebohrungen 20 in den Schalen 14 sind bei dieser Ausgestaltung die Plätze, die die Schalen 14 am Rahmen einnehmen können, festgelegt und nicht variabel, so dass auch die Zahl der Schalen in einem Rahmen nicht ohne Weiteres variiert werden kann. Eine Variante dieser Ausgestaltung ermöglicht die Platzierung von Schalen 14 in variablen Abständen, indem sie die Gewindebohrungen 20 durch parallel zu den Querstreben orientierte Nuten 20 ersetzt, deren Breite jeweils so bemessen ist, dass die Schrauben 19 Gewinde in die Seitenflanken der Nuten 20 schneiden. Eine solche Schale 14 kann entlang der Auflagefläche 11 in jeder beliebigen Position befestigt werden, in der die Nut 20 über einem der Löcher 12 der Auflagefläche 11 zu liegen kommt. Abstandhalterkörper 18 sind auch hier zwischen den Schalen 14 auf den Auflageflächen 11 platziert, um Löcher 12 der Auflageflächen, an denen keine Schale 14 verschraubt ist, zu überdecken. Die Abstandhalterkörper 18 können einfach zwischen den Flaschenschalen 14 eingeklemmt sein, oder sie können wie diese mit einer Nut versehen sein, die es erlaubt, sie an den Auflageflächen 11 zu verschrauben.Due to the position of the holes in the bearing surfaces 11 and the threaded holes 20 in the shells 14 are in this embodiment, the places that the shells 14 on Can take frames, fixed and not variable, so that the number of Shells in a frame can not be easily varied. A variant of this Design allows the placement of shells 14 at variable intervals by they the threaded holes 20 by parallel to the cross braces oriented grooves 20th replaced, whose width is in each case such that the screws 19 thread in the Cut side edges of the grooves 20. Such a shell 14 can along the Support surface 11 are secured in any position in which the groove 20 via one of the holes 12 of the support surface 11 comes to rest. Spacer body 18 are placed here between the shells 14 on the support surfaces 11 to holes 12 of the Covering surfaces on which no shell 14 is screwed to cover. The Spacer bodies 18 may simply be clamped between the bottle cups 14 or, like these, they can be provided with a groove that allows them to be attached to the To screw bearing surfaces 11.

Bei der Ausgestaltung der Fig. 4 dienen jeweils die Oberseiten der Querstreben 3, 6 selbst als Auflageflächen für Fortsätze 23 der Schalen 14. Die Schalen 14 sind in der Querrichtung fixiert durch angeformte Zapfen 21, die jeweils in Sacklöcher 22 an der für einen Betrachter nicht sichtbaren Innenseite des Querstegs 7 eingreifen. Die Sacklöcher können an dieser Rückseite in Form von mehreren Gruppen angeordnet sein, wobei die Löcher einer Gruppe untereinander jeweils gleichen Abstand haben, der Abstand und die Zahl der Löcher von Gruppe zu Gruppe aber verschieden ist, so dass, je nachdem, welche Gruppe von Löchern genutzt wird, unterschiedlich viele Schalen in gleichmäßigem Abstand montiert werden können.In the embodiment of FIG. 4, the upper sides of the transverse struts 3, 6 serve in each case itself as bearing surfaces for extensions 23 of the shells 14. The shells 14 are in the Transverse direction fixed by molded pins 21, each in blind holes 22 at the for engage a viewer not visible inside the crosspiece 7. The blind holes can be arranged on this back in the form of several groups, the Holes of a group have mutually equal distance, the distance and the Number of holes from group to group but different, so that, depending on which group of holes is used, different numbers of shells in even Distance can be mounted.

Der hintere Fortsatz 23 ist verlängert durch eine abwärts gerichtete Zunge 24, die mit einem an ihrem Ende angeformten Rasthaken 25 eine Kante der hinteren Querstrebe 6 hintergreift. Die Schalen 14 sind bei dieser Ausgestaltung besonders einfach montierbar, indem sie zunächst in einer schrägen Stellung gehalten und dabei mit ihren Zapfen 21 in die Sacklöcher 22 eingeführt und dann abwärts geschwenkt werden, bis sie an der hinteren Querstrebe 6 einrasten.The rear extension 23 is extended by a downwardly directed tongue 24, which with an integrally formed at its end latch hook 25 has an edge of the rear cross member. 6 engages behind. The shells 14 are particularly easy to install in this embodiment, by first held in an oblique position while doing with their pin 21 in the blind holes 22 are introduced and then pivoted downwards until they reach the engage the rear cross strut 6.

Die hintere Querstrebe 6 ist gebildet durch einen Quersteg 8, der mit den Längsstreben 2 einteilig aus Kunststoff geformt ist, und ein dem Quersteg 8 von oben übergestülptes C-förmiges Strangpressprofil 10. Der Quersteg 8 hat einen in etwa U-förmigen Querschnitt mit zwei vertikalen Schenkeln 26, an deren Außenseiten Rastkanten 27 geformt sind. Beim Überstülpen des Strangpressprofils 10 werden diese zwei Schenkel 26 zunächst elastisch gegeneinander gedrückt. Sobald Rastnasen des Profils 10 die Kanten 27 passiert haben, spreizen die Schenkel 26 sich wieder, so dass die Kanten 27 hinter die Rastnasen eingreifen und das Profil 10 fest am Quersteg 8 verankern.The rear cross member 6 is formed by a transverse web 8, which is connected to the longitudinal struts. 2 is molded in one piece from plastic, and a crosspiece 8 from above übergestülptes C-shaped Extruded profile 10. The cross bar 8 has an approximately U-shaped cross-section with two vertical legs 26, on the outer sides locking edges 27 are formed. When slipping over the extruded profile 10, these two legs 26 are first pressed elastically against each other. Once locking lugs of the profile 10, the edges 27th have happened, spread the legs 26 again, so that the edges 27 behind the Engage locking lugs and anchor the profile 10 firmly on the cross bar 8.

Bei den gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen der erfindungsgemäßen Ablage sind die Längsstreben 2 des Rahmens 1 schmal und dienen nur dazu, eine starre Verbindung zwischen den Querstreben 3, 6 zu schaffen. Alternativ könnten die Längsstreben auch jeweils selbst zu einer Aufnahmeschale für eine Flasche verbreitert sein.In the embodiments of the tray according to the invention shown are the Longitudinal struts 2 of the frame 1 narrow and serve only to a rigid connection between the cross struts 3, 6 create. Alternatively, the longitudinal struts could also each widened itself to a receiving tray for a bottle.
