Definitions
- the present invention relates to a shelving or set of shelves preferably of metallic material, of the modular type, i.e. of the type adapted to be assembled and installed by the final user.
- the above shelving is characterised by easy assembly (particular technical skill is not required for installation), simple transportation (each kit can usually be handled and transported by a single person), inexpensiveness in manufacture and easy storage in the sale stores.
- the aforesaid types of shelving comprise four vertical posts to which two or more horizontal shelves or boards are fastened.
- the vertical posts have the function of supporting the horizontal shelves and the task of the latter is to bear the stored goods.
- the vertical posts have two halves forming an L-shaped configuration of the post section and are provided with a plurality of fastening regions (usually holes) each of which is adapted to interact with a shelf in such a manner as to enable the shelf to be mounted to the height the most appropriate for final use of same.
- the vertical posts in particular the post ends, can be usually matched together to enable creation of shelving solutions of any height.
- Shelves are of rectangular shape and have a flat surface (adapted to receive the goods) of a thickness in the order of one millimetre provided with stiffening elements (placed on the opposite side relative to the surface designed to receive the goods) adapted to give more structural stiffness to the flat surface.
- stiffening elements are in the most different shapes, while all of them have a longitudinal extension, i.e. they extend from one (short) side of the shelf to the other.
- the stiffening elements are made integral with the flat surface through welding or gluing.
- shelves have vertical shoulders extending from each of the perimetral edges of the flat surface. These shoulders have a dual function, i.e. of stiffening the flat surface to a higher degree and enabling the latter to be joined to the vertical posts.
- shoulders comprise a plurality of holes that are adapted to face the holes of the vertical posts so that by inserting a bolt into a hole of the shoulder and into the corresponding hole in the post, the post and shelf are fastened to each other.
- each shelf is fastened to both halves of each post, thus creating a steady structure.
- a crossbar is fastened between two posts (by means of bolts and nuts, for example) and the shelf is in turn fastened to the crossbar (by means of bolts and nuts or by mechanical friction fit, for example).
- each crossbar is to mutually fasten two posts, while the function of a bracket is to fasten the post pairs to each other.
- This kind of shelving is for example disclosed by document US 2065133A .
- FR 2506582 shows a shelving according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the shelving solutions of the known art briefly described above have some drawbacks. In fact, these sets of shelves do not always have an appropriate structural stiffness. Therefore it is sometimes necessary to fasten the shelving to a wall to ensure steady positioning of same. Other times active tie-rods are required to be provided between one shelf and the other one for stiffening the whole shelving, which will hinder easy access to the shelves.
- each shelf is clearly a function of the stiffening element placed under the supporting surface of the shelf. Therefore, for increasing the useful capacity it is necessary to resort to stiffening elements of complicated shape that cannot be always fastened under the supporting surface with ease.
- the sizes of these containers are very similar to, or identical with the sizes of a shelf multiplied by the number of shelves forming the shelving. This minimum bulkiness sometimes creates strong limits to the operating range of the carriers charged with transport from the manufacturing place to the sale point.
- shelves of the aforesaid type are very cheap devices (in terms of production costs) and therefore the transport charges have a great incidence on the final price.
- the technical task of the present invention is to make available a set of shelves or shelving free of the above mentioned drawbacks.
- the present invention aims at providing a set of shelves having high structural stiffness when in use.
- Another aim of the invention is to provide a set of shelves enabling optimal access to shelves.
- a further aim of the invention is to make available a set of shelves of simple structure and with high shelf capacity.
- a still further aim of the invention is to propose a set of shelves of very reduced bulkiness when dismantled.

In the preferred embodiment of the invention the fastening regions 6 also extend on wings 4c, 5c.
- the fastening regions 6 can be a plurality of round holes disposed upon each other (if bolts and nuts are used) or a plurality of rectangular holes (if the constraints between the shelving components are mechanical pressure fits), or yet a combination of round and rectangular holes (as in the preferred embodiment of the invention) to enable assembly of the shelves both by pressure fit and with bolts and nuts 100.
- shelves 4, 5 are all identical with each other and preferably each of them has a mirror-like symmetry relative to an axis lying in the flat surface 4a, 5a.
- Shelving 1 further comprises a first 7 and a second 8 crossbar.
- Each crossbar comprises a vertical shoulder 7b, 8b perpendicular to the shelf 4, 5 (when the shelf is in use) and a horizontal bracket 7a, 8a of an extension parallel to the flat surface 4a, 5a of the shelf 4, 5.
- Each horizontal bracket 7a, 8a comprises at least one opening 9 to enable passage of shoulders 4b, 5b of the shelves 4, 5 during the shelving assembling steps (as better clarified in the following).

Description
- The present invention relates to a shelving or set of shelves preferably of metallic material, of the modular type, i.e. of the type adapted to be assembled and installed by the final user.
- These types of shelving are usually marketed in the form of a kit ready for assembly inside which the structural components of the shelving are present and, when contemplated, the related bolts and nuts for assembling the structural components.
- These types of shelving usually find use in technical premises intended for storing goods, such as small mechanical workshops, clearing-out or store rooms, basements, garages, closets or lumber-rooms.
- The above shelving is characterised by easy assembly (particular technical skill is not required for installation), simple transportation (each kit can usually be handled and transported by a single person), inexpensiveness in manufacture and easy storage in the sale stores.
- Usually, the aforesaid types of shelving comprise four vertical posts to which two or more horizontal shelves or boards are fastened. The vertical posts have the function of supporting the horizontal shelves and the task of the latter is to bear the stored goods.
- In particular, the vertical posts have two halves forming an L-shaped configuration of the post section and are provided with a plurality of fastening regions (usually holes) each of which is adapted to interact with a shelf in such a manner as to enable the shelf to be mounted to the height the most appropriate for final use of same.
- The vertical posts, in particular the post ends, can be usually matched together to enable creation of shelving solutions of any height.
- Shelves are of rectangular shape and have a flat surface (adapted to receive the goods) of a thickness in the order of one millimetre provided with stiffening elements (placed on the opposite side relative to the surface designed to receive the goods) adapted to give more structural stiffness to the flat surface. These stiffening elements are in the most different shapes, while all of them have a longitudinal extension, i.e. they extend from one (short) side of the shelf to the other. In addition, the stiffening elements are made integral with the flat surface through welding or gluing.
- Usually, shelves have vertical shoulders extending from each of the perimetral edges of the flat surface. These shoulders have a dual function, i.e. of stiffening the flat surface to a higher degree and enabling the latter to be joined to the vertical posts.
- To this aim, shoulders comprise a plurality of holes that are adapted to face the holes of the vertical posts so that by inserting a bolt into a hole of the shoulder and into the corresponding hole in the post, the post and shelf are fastened to each other.
- Consequently, each shelf is fastened to both halves of each post, thus creating a steady structure.
- Alternatively, a crossbar is fastened between two posts (by means of bolts and nuts, for example) and the shelf is in turn fastened to the crossbar (by means of bolts and nuts or by mechanical friction fit, for example).
- Therefore, the function of each crossbar is to mutually fasten two posts, while the function of a bracket is to fasten the post pairs to each other. This kind of shelving is for example disclosed by document
US 2065133A . MoreoverFR 2506582 - Yet, the capacity of each shelf is clearly a function of the stiffening element placed under the supporting surface of the shelf. Therefore, for increasing the useful capacity it is necessary to resort to stiffening elements of complicated shape that cannot be always fastened under the supporting surface with ease. In addition, when shelves are dismantled and housed in containers for transportation and sale, the sizes of these containers are very similar to, or identical with the sizes of a shelf multiplied by the number of shelves forming the shelving. This minimum bulkiness sometimes creates strong limits to the operating range of the carriers charged with transport from the manufacturing place to the sale point. In fact, it should be pointed out that shelves of the aforesaid type are very cheap devices (in terms of production costs) and therefore the transport charges have a great incidence on the final price.
- In this context, the technical task of the present invention is to make available a set of shelves or shelving free of the above mentioned drawbacks.
- In particular, the present invention aims at providing a set of shelves having high structural stiffness when in use.
- Another aim of the invention is to provide a set of shelves enabling optimal access to shelves.
- A further aim of the invention is to make available a set of shelves of simple structure and with high shelf capacity.
- A still further aim of the invention is to propose a set of shelves of very reduced bulkiness when dismantled.
- The foregoing and further aims are substantially achieved by the shelving having the features described in one or more of the appended claims.
- Further features and advantages will become more apparent from the detailed description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment of the shelving according to the invention.
- This description will be set out with reference to the accompanying drawings, given by way of non-limiting example, in which:
-

fastening regions 6 can be a plurality of round holes disposed upon each other (if bolts and nuts are used) or a plurality of rectangular holes (if the constraints between the shelving components are mechanical pressure fits), or yet a combination of round and rectangular holes (as in the preferred embodiment of the invention) to enable assembly of the shelves both by pressure fit and with bolts andnuts 100. - It should be noted that
shelves flat surface - Shelving 1 further comprises a first 7 and a second 8 crossbar. Each crossbar comprises a
vertical shoulder shelf 4, 5 (when the shelf is in use) and ahorizontal bracket flat surface shelf - Each
horizontal bracket opening 9 to enable passage ofshoulders shelves - The number of
openings 9 is the same as the number of active shelves (i.e. shelves resting on the crossbar) less one (in the embodiment shown only oneopening 9 is present). Thisopening 9 is placed to a distance from a side edge of the crossbar substantially equal to the width measured between the twovertical shoulders shelf Opening 9 extends over the whole depth (intended as the transverse dimension) of thebracket - In the preferred embodiment of the invention,

further openings 9a are always two in number, irrespective of the number of the shelves forming the rest surface. - In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a
horizontal wing 7c, 8c extends from thevertical shoulder bracket horizontal wing 7c, 8c extends starting from a distal portion of the vertical shoulder relative to the shoulder portion adjacent to thehorizontal bracket wing 7c, 8c is substantially parallel to the horizontal crossbar bracket. - Each
crossbar vertical shoulder horizontal bracket wing 7c, 8c. Therefore, eachcrossbar vertical shoulder horizontal bracket wing 7c, 8c, as shown inFig. 3 . - Advantageously, each bracket is of one piece construction, i.e. it is made up of a single plate, preferably of plastic material, of constant thickness included between 0.5 and 1.5 mm, preferably of 0.8 mm.
- The
vertical shoulder crossbar fastening regions 10. Thesefastening regions 10 are disposed in a peripheral position of the shoulder, i.e. in the vicinity of the free shoulder edges, as shown inFig. 2 . In the preferred embodiment of the invention thefastening regions 10 also extend onwings 7c, 8c. - The
fastening regions 10 can be a plurality of round holes disposed upon each other (if bolts andnuts 100 are used) or a plurality of rectangular holes (if the constraints between the shelving components are mechanical pressure fits), or yet a combination of round and rectangular holes (as in the preferred embodiment of the invention) to enable assembling of the shelves both by fitting and by bolts and nuts 100. - Note that
crossbars horizontal crossbar 7 is directly fastened to twovertical posts 2 and the secondhorizontal crossbar 8 is directly fastened to two othervertical posts 2 distinct from those concerned with the firsthorizontal post 7, as shown inFig. 3 . - The first
horizontal shelf 4 is directly fastened to twovertical posts 2 and thesecond shelf 5 is directly fastened to two othervertical posts 2. - Advantageously, the
vertical posts 2 engaged by eachshelf horizontal crossbar 7 and the secondhorizontal crossbar 8. In other words, thefirst shelf 4 is directly fastened to twovertical posts 2, each of which is directly fastened to the first 7 or the second 8 crossbar. - By the term "directly fastened" it is intended, in the context of the present invention, that the two elements directly fastened to each other are joined by constraint members that permanently immobilise the relative positions (even if in a reversible manner). This immobilisation can be carried out by means of bolts and nuts, as shown in the accompanying figures, or by mechanical pressure fits.
- In the preferred embodiment of the invention, only said constraint members act between elements directly fastened to each other, i.e. further structural elements are not interposed between the two elements.
- It should be noted that the presence of possible additional elements between the elements directly fastened to each other falls within the above given definition of "directly fastened", should not said additional elements have any structural function on the shelving economy.
- Each
horizontal shelf crossbars shelf crossbars flat surface horizontal bracket crossbar - In particular, a
vertical shoulder vertical posts 2. Thevertical shoulder crossbar vertical posts 2. - Note that
crossbars brackets - In addition, the first 4 and
second shelves 5 are directly fastened to each other at the respectivevertical shoulders - The two
vertical shoulders respective wings rib 4d having an "IPE" section that is disposed under the rest surface of the shelf (seeFig. 3 ). - This "IPE" rib greatly stiffens the structure defined by the approached arrangement of
shelves - In addition, it appears from the above that a shelf and a crossbar are directly fastened to each
vertical post 2, which shelf and crossbar in turn are in mutual contact relationship. This enables a shelf structure of the hyperstatic type to be obtained which is therefore of great stiffness and sturdiness. - Note that these structural features are obtained through use of structurally very simple components (
posts 3,crossbars shelves 4, 5), of easy and cheap manufacture and easy storage. - In fact, the rest surfaces (which usually have the greatest bulkiness in the disassembled package) are divided into brackets to be disposed in side by side relationship, thus greatly reducing the package bulkiness during transportation.
- In addition, the brackets can be mutually piled up, the respective
vertical shoulders flat surfaces - Shelving assembly contemplates the operation of fastening (for instance by means of bolts and nuts 100) the
first crossbar 7 to two vertical posts 2 (Fig. 2 ). Subsequently, thesecond crossbar 8 too is fastened to the remaining twoposts 2. - At this
point shelves crossbars - Note that in this step the
vertical shoulders openings crossbars flat surfaces crossbar brackets Fig. 1 ). - The
vertical shoulders Fig. 3 ). - Note that tie-rods or other structural elements in addition to the mentioned ones are not present, which will make access to the rest surface very easy.
- It is therefore apparent that the shelving assembly is very easy and quick.
- It should be also pointed out that the shelves can be more than two. In particular, in each shelving a plurality of pairs of shelves can be present (in the example shown the pairs of shelves are two). In addition, the shelves can be disposed in side by side relationship not only by pairs, but also in a greater number.
- For instance, each rest surface can consist of three shelves disposed side by side. Under this situation, the central shelf identical with the two others, has both the vertical shoulders directly fastened to the vertical shoulders of the adjacent shelves. The rest surface is provided with the "IPE" ribs.
- It should be noted that in this case the wedge-shaped
openings 9 of the crossbars are two in number. - The same principle applies, should the shelves of each rest surface be more than three in number.
