Definitions

  • the present patent application relates to a wire shelf with removable rack, in particular for kitchen furniture and specifically for dish rack kitchen units, where the shelf of the invention finds its main use.
  • the removable rack has been designed in order to support a closed series of dishes in edgeways position vertically, the vertical position being, as it is known, the most efficient position to favour rapid uniform drip-drying.
  • the possibility to remove the wire shelf ensures large versatility of use, since the reticular structure of the wire shelf allows to use it as an ordinary surface to support wet objects to be drip-dried.
  • the wire shelf without the dish rack can be used in a dish rack cabinet as a support surface for glasses, cups, pots, pans, etc.
  • the number of dishes or glasses contained in the cabinet can be doubled by using the rack on both shelves.
  • the wire shelf of the invention has been designed in such a way that, if the removable dish rack is not removed, the wire shelf can be used as a support surface for glasses and pans.
  • the wire shelf of the invention can be used as internal shelf or bottom wall in cabinets, as well as bottom in drawers in general, and in particular pot holder drawers.
  • Traditional dish racks have a standardised configuration, according to which the close series of transversal small bridges extends astride two longitudinal members, a back one and a front one, which are an integral part of a rectangular bearing frame, whose transversal rods are fixed in internal position on the lower edges of two lateral sides of the cabinet.
  • the close series of transversal bridges is welded to a pair of longitudinal bars made of metal rod and having a lower centre-to-centre distance than the average diameter of an ordinary dish, being designed to stop and hold the edge of each dish, which would otherwise lack any kind of support in view of the fact that the aforementioned bridges only provide lateral support.
  • US 4,046,261 discloses a dishwasher rack comprising a plurality of longitudinal extending wire members welded together with a plurality of transversally extending wire members.
  • a front support bracket and a back support bracket are mounted on said rack.
  • a removable fence is mounted on the front support bracket and on the back support bracket.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to innovate the structural configuration to reduce production costs of wire dish racks, with savings both on raw material and assembly processes.
  • the purpose of the invention is to innovate the structural configuration of the current models of dish racks, in order to reduce their height and allow packing them in lower-thickness boxes, with savings on storage space and transportation costs.
  • a further purpose of the invention is to design a new wire shelf, in particular for kitchen cabinets, which is provided with means to house a LED light bar.
  • Light devices are currently fixed directly to the wall or under the lower bottom of the cabinets that are closed with a bottom wall, using traditional fixing means, such as screws or glue.
  • the fixing means require, mounting and dismounting operations that must be performed by specialised personnel.
  • Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a remedy for the latter problem, by devising a new model of wire shelf, in particular for kitchen cabinets, provided with means to house a LED light bar.
  • the wire shelf of the invention is basically formed of two constructive parts that can be easily coupled and uncoupled by means of a simple male-female coupling system.
  • first or main part can be used separately from the second part, which in turn has an auxiliary secondary function with respect to the first part.
  • the main part is composed of a rectangular flat wire shelf supported by a pair of longitudinal members, a front one and a back one, while the second part consists in a rack designed to be snap-fitted inside a corresponding groove obtained on the upper edge of the back longitudinal member.
  • the two longitudinal members are an integral part of a rigid bearing frame, whose transversal rods are designed to be screwed or glued on the internal side of the two lateral sides of the cabinet.
  • the rack is formed of a parallel close series of small arms with vertical direction, which are regularly spaced and shaped in such a way that they have forward protruding sections to provide lateral support to the dish placed between them in edgeways position.
  • the main part comprises a corresponding parallel close series of small transversal arms with horizontal direction, which are regularly spaced and shaped in such a way that they have a spaced pair of bent sections to provide lower support to the dish placed between them in edgeways position.
  • the flat wire shelf of the first part is formed by the said parallel close series of small transversal arms with horizontal direction, and by two rectilinear longitudinal bars, above which the ends of the said small transversal arms with horizontal direction are welded.
  • the flat wire shelf rests on the two bearing longitudinal members which are provided with an upper longitudinal groove that exactly houses the two rectilinear longitudinal bars, which are preferably made of a metal bar with circular section.
  • the wire shelf of the invention is composed of three removable constructive parts: a bearing frame fixed between the sides of the cabinet, a flat dish-rack that is laid and engaged above the said bearing frame and a dish rack that is laid and engaged above the back longitudinal member of the bearing frame.
  • the wire shelf (G) of the invention comprises two constructive parts (A and B) that are coupled by means of a simple male-female coupling system.
  • the first part (A) is formed of a wire shelf (P) supported by two longitudinal members, a front one (1) and a back one (2), which are an integral part of a rigid bearing frame, whose transversal rods (C) are designed to be screwed or glued on the internal side of the two lateral sides (F) of the cabinet (M).
  • the second part (B) consists in the dish rack (3) formed of a parallel close series of small arms with vertical direction (3a), which are regularly spaced and shaped in such a way that they have forward protruding sections (3b) to provide lateral support to a dish (E) placed between them in edgeways position.
  • the parallel close series of small vertical arms (3a) is welded to only one ordinary rectilinear longitudinal bar (3c) that intersects each arm (3a) near the base, which is provided with an ending section (3d) with perfectly rectilinear vertical direction, designed to be inserted into a groove (4) suitably provided on the upper back of the back frame member (2), as shown in fig. 4B .
  • the wire shelf (P) comprises a parallel closed series of small transversal arms (5) with horizontal direction, which are regularly spaced and identical to the series of small vertical arms (3a) of the dish rack (3) in terms of number and centre-to-centre distance.
  • Each arm (5) is shaped in such a way that it has a spaced pair of bent sections (5a) designed to provide lower support to a dish (E) placed between them in edgeways position, as shown in fig. 4 .
  • a first portion of the dish (E1) penetrates between two adjacent arms (5) of the shelf (P) and receives lower support from an opposite pair of bent sections (5a) that stop and hold the dish at its end-of-travel position, while a second portion of the dish (E2) penetrates between two adjacent arms (3a) of the dish rack (3) and receives lateral support in vertical position.
  • the wire shelf (P) of the invention comprises two rectilinear longitudinal bars (6), above which the ends of the transversal arms (5) are welded.
  • the wire shelf (P) is laid on the two bearing longitudinal members (1 and 2) which are provided with an upper longitudinal groove (7) that exactly houses the two rectilinear longitudinal bars (6), which are preferably made of a metal bar with circular section, as shown in fig. 5 .
  • the front longitudinal member (1) preferably made of aluminium, is provided with a lower longitudinal groove (8) that exactly receives a LED light bar (9) of known type.
  • the front longitudinal member (1) is provided on the front with a longitudinal groove (10) that houses a gasket (11) for the door (S) of the cabinet (M), as shown in fig. 4A .
  • the LED light bar (9) is formed of two parts, consisting in a strip (9a) of known type that supports a close series of LED's (L) and relevant electrical circuit, with on/off switch (9b), and an innovative case (9b) preferably moulded from plastic material, designed to receive, cover, insulate and protect the strip (9a).
  • the case (9b) is suitably shaped and dimensioned in order to be snap-fitted inside the longitudinal groove (8).
  • the case (9b) has a U-shaped cross-section, with a horizontal base (LO) and two lateral borders (SL).
  • the horizontal base (LO) is provided with a closed series of holes (F) that receive the corresponding closed series of LED's (L) and the relevant on/off switch (I).
  • a longitudinal tooth (D) is obtained in external position on the edge of the lateral borders (SL), being designed to engage inside a longitudinal groove (8e) obtained on the two bottom corners of the groove (8), as shown in figs. 5A and 5B .
