Abstract

A method for producing a stacking column (P) for storing storage items above or alongside one another on pawls ( 13 ) which are arranged between two side walls ( 1, 2 ) such that they can rotate about an axis ( 12 ), the side walls ( 1, 2 ), pawls ( 13 ) and mounting brackets ( 7 ) form an assembly for producing stacking columns (P) of varying pitch.

Claims (5)

1. A stacking column for storing storage items one above the other or next to each other comprising pawls ( 13 ) which are rotatably arranged around a pivot ( 12 ) between two substantially parallel side cheeks ( 1 , 2 ), the pivot ( 12 ) of the pawls ( 13 ) is accommodated in bearing blocks ( 7 ) which are removably coupled to the side cheeks ( 1 , 2 ), and a guide ( 6 ) for the bearing blocks ( 7 ) is provided on an inner wall ( 5 ) of at least one side cheek ( 1 , 2 ), wherein the guide ( 6 ) comprises an undercut slot ( 9 ) into which a multiplicity of the bearing blocks ( 7 ) are inserted.

2. The stacking column as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the undercut slot ( 9 ) is formed by means of two angle-pieces ( 8 . 1 , 8 . 2 ) which are arranged in a mirror-image manner.

3. The stacking column as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bearing blocks ( 7 ) have holes ( 10 ) for accommodating the pivot ( 12 ) of the pawls ( 13 ).

4. The stacking column as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two side cheeks ( 1 , 2 ) are interconnected via a back wall ( 3 ) on which stops ( 4 ) for the pawls ( 13 ) are provided.

5. The stacking column as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the pawls ( 13 ) are interconnected via link plates which effect a rotation of the pawls ( 13 ) from a neutral position to a stand-by position and thereafter to a working position.
