Abstract

Claims (14)

1. A suspension system comprising rear rail elongated in a direction of elongation, configured to be arranged horizontally on a vertical surface, the rear rail comprising a rear surface adapted to abut said vertical surface and a suspension flange bent out of a plane defined by said rear surface from an end of the rear rail along at least part of its length, and a hang standard configured to be vertically arranged and comprising a front portion having slots for connecting with cantilevered brackets, and, in cross section, rear leg portions arranged laterally with regard to the front portion and being configured to leave a space behind the front portion, in front of the vertical surface, wherein the hang standard further comprises a suspension slot arranged in each of the rear leg portions, the suspension slot being configured to connect with the suspension flange of the rear rail to suspend the hang standard from the rear rail while permitting the hang standard to slide on the suspension flange toward the end of the rear rail, and wherein the rear rail comprises a stop at the end of the rear rail that is arranged to prevent the hang standard from sliding on the suspension flange past the end of the rear rail;

wherein,

the stop comprises a tab bent from the rear rail;

the tab is bent about an axis parallel to the direction of elongation of the rear rail; and

the tab is bent from the suspension flange.

2. A rear rail for a suspension system of a wall-mounted storage system, the rear rail being elongated in a direction of elongation, the rear rail comprising a rear surface adapted to abut a vertical surface when horizontally mounted to the vertical surface and a suspension flange bent outwardly from the rear surface along a length of the rear rail starting from an end of the rear rail, and a stop arranged at the end of the rear rail;

wherein:

the suspension flange is configured to support hang standards that have a plurality of slots for connecting to cantilevered brackets and at least one suspension slot when the rear rail is mounted horizontally on the vertical surface and the suspension flange is inserted into the at least one suspension slot;

the rear rail is configured for the hang standard to be slidable along the rear rail when the suspension flange is received within the at least one suspension slot;

the stop is configured to interfere with further sliding of the hang standard on the suspension flange such that it does not slide off the end of the rear rail;

the stop comprises a tab bent from the rear rail; and

the tab is bent from the suspension flange.

3. The rear rail for a suspension system of a wall-mounted storage system according to claim 2 , wherein the tab is bent about an axis parallel to the direction of elongation of the rear rail.

4. The rear rail for a suspension system of a wall-mounted storage system according to claim 3 in combination with a hang standard, the hang standard comprising a front portion having slots configured for connecting with cantilevered brackets and, in cross section, rear leg portions with suspensions slots, the rear leg portions being arranged laterally with regard to the front portion and configured to leave a space behind the front portion in front of the vertical surface.
