Frame construction for a rack system
A frame construction, in particular for a rack system, includes two vertical columns each in the form of a rectangular hollow profiled column element having a longitudinal groove, the two groove legs of which lying opposite each other each have on the inside two longitudinal ribs, between which a hole pattern strip is inserted into the hollow profiled column element. A plurality of horizontal crossbeams, which are fastened to the two columns, each are in the form of a rectangular hollow profiled crossbeam element. Crossbeam connectors are fastened to the end faces of the hollow profiled crossbeam element. The crossbeam connectors each engage, with at least one pin, in one of the holes of the hole pattern strips.
1. A frame construction for a rack system, comprising:
two vertical columns each in the form of a rectangular hollow profiled column element having a longitudinal groove, two groove legs of which lying opposite each other each have on an inside two longitudinal ribs;
a hole pattern strip which is inserted between the two longitudinal ribs into the hollow profiled column element;
a plurality of horizontal crossbeams, which are fastened to the two vertical columns, each in the form of a rectangular hollow profiled crossbeam element; and
crossbeam connectors having at least one pin and being fastened to end faces of the hollow profiled crossbeam element;
wherein the crossbeam connectors each engage, with the at least one pin, in one of the holes of the hole pattern strips; and
wherein the hollow profiled crossbeam element includes a screw channel, and wherein the crossbeam connectors are each formed in two parts by an inner and an outer connector part, wherein the inner connector part is fastened to the end face of the hollow profiled crossbeam element by means of a screw screwed into the screw channel of the hollow profiled crossbeam element, and the inner connector part is plugged in a plug-in direction into the outer connector part.
2. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hole pattern strips are formed of translucent material, wherein on the back of the hole pattern strips an LED strip is respectively arranged.
3. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hole pattern strips have holes at equidistant intervals.
4. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hole pattern strips are respectively shorter in a length than the hollow profiled column elements by approximately a width of the topmost crossbeam.
5. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least the bottommost and the topmost crossbeam are fixedly connected at the columns.
6. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the plurality of horizontal crossbeams includes at least three crossbeams, one of which is a middle crossbeam held hanging from the two vertical columns.
7. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two connector parts each have a tightening contour running obliquely to the plug-in direction in order to mutually tighten the plugged together connector parts transversely to the plug-in direction.
8. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two groove legs of the hollow profiled column element and the outer connector part each have a mutually interacting clip contour for clipping of the outer connector part into the longitudinal groove and/or displacement of the outer connector part along the longitudinal groove.
9. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hollow profiled column element has a longitudinal shoulder arranged ahead of the two longitudinal ribs and wherein a tension bolt having a tension head is stuck through the two connector parts into a longitudinal channel of the hollow profiled crossbeam element and bears against the outside of the outer connector part with the bolt head, which respectively back-grips the longitudinal shoulder of the hollow profiled column element and, by means of a screwed-in, clamping element, running transversely in the hollow profiled crossbeam element, can be drawn further into the longitudinal channel in order to clamp the crossbeam to the respective column.
10. The frame construction as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the tension bolt has a transverse bore and wherein the clamping element engages in the transverse bore of the tension bolt, and in that the clamping element and/or the transverse bore are configured obliquely to one another in such a way that, upon engagement, the tension bolt is centered on the clamping element and thereby tightened.
11. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the crossbeam connectors have interface holes for transversely running fastening elements of attachment elements.
12. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hollow profiled column elements and/or the hollow profiled crossbeam elements are extruded profiles.
13. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hollow profiled column elements and/or the hollow profiled crossbeam elements are extruded profiles of metal.
14. The frame construction as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the crossbeam connectors are formed of plastic.
15. The frame construction as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the translucent material is plastic.
16. The frame construction as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the LED strip is stuck to the back of the hole pattern strip.
17. The frame construction as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the back of the hole pattern strip has C-groove in which the LED strip is disposed.
