Patent

CA 2140774

A shelving support system is disclosed comprising a series of spaced vertical columnar supports (300) of steel channel having a series of cutouts (320) formed at regularly-spaced intervals in the flanges (308) thereof. Each cutout (320) defines an upper tip (323), a lower lip (235) and a rear horizontal shoulder (342). Linear extrusions (324a and 324b) of suitable aluminium or plastics material which define shelf-slots (326) are fitted into cutouts (320) so as to be horizontally located between the backs of upper and lower lips (323 and 325) and the rear periphery (344), and, so as to be located vertically by the underside of a shoulder (342) formed on flange (308) at the rear of the cutout and a land (362) and/or the top of the lower lip (325) at or near the lower front of the cutout. Each extrusion (324) includes a curved, forwardly-facing, hook-like thumb-strip formed along its upper wall which hooks behind upper lip (323) when the extrusion is in place within the cutout (320). The extrusion (324) being fitted in place by tilting it down and to the rear until thumb-strip (326) passes under lip (323) and then swinging the front of extrusion (324) down to bring its back wall (334) into contact with rear face (344) of cutout (320). An upwardly facing panel-slot (346) and a downwardly facing panel-slot (348) are respectively formed on the upper front face and the lower front face of extrusion (320), the depth of upper slot (346) being greater than that of lower slot (348). An appropriately cut finishing-panel (364) can be inserted in place between adjacent extrusions (324a and 324b) by first entering its upper edge into lower slot (348) of upper extrusion (324a) until the top of slot (346) is reached, aligning its lower edge with the upper slot (346) of lower extrusion (324b) and then allowing the panel to drop into that slot.
