Pallet racking for random storage
A pallet racking for storing pallets or the like. The pallet racking is made up of vertical columns, lateral and cantilevered structural members fixed to the vertical columns, and longitudinal rails supported on the structural members. These rails, in the preferred embodiment of the invention, are in the form of channels having their lower edges turned inward. The rails are connected to the lateral or cantilevered structural members by joints which include a clamp plate. The clamp plate has a square body which fits between the legs of the channel and the square body has two flanges, one flange at each of two opposite sides of the body. The body is received in the channel overlying the inturned edges. The flanges of the clip cradle, the top part of the transverse structural members and a bolt extends through the clip and through the structural members. Thus, the clip holds the rails rigidly to the lateral or cantilevered structural members and holds the entire assembly in rigid relation.
The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows
1. A joint between a channel and a structural member,
2. A pallet racking for pallets or the like comprising spaced vertically extending columns and horizontally spaced horizontally extending pallet rackings comprising structural members,
The pallet racking indicated generally at 10 is of the general type shown in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,152,670 and 3,097,747. The pallet racking 10 for supporting pallets is generally shown in FIG. 1. The pallets indicated at 11 are supported on the longitudinal rails 16 of the pallet rackings. The fork truck indicated at 12 may move between the aisles of the pallet rackings in a conventional manner.
The pallet racking has columns 20 which have cantilevered structural members 14 fixed to the columns and the cantilevered structural members 14 support the first structural members or rails 16 which are attached to the structural members 14 by means of joints shown more particularly in FIG. 3.
It will be noted that the rails are spaced from the columns to provide a ledge for supporting the pallets 11. The columns are spaced laterally from each other a sufficient distance that a fork truck can move freely between the aisles formed by the columns.
The connections of the rails or first longitudinal members 16 to the cantilevered members 14 are made by means of joints like those shown in FIG. 4. The vertical column members 120 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 are connected to the lateral transverse members 114 by means of the pallet racking arrangement 115 shown. This same type of connection can be used to connect the members 14 to the columns 20 in the embodiment of FIG. 1.
The rails 16 in the embodiment of FIG. 1 are connected to the cantilevered members 14 by means of plates 34, like the clip plate 34, which have lateral side edges 13 and 15. These edges fit snugly between the legs 17 and 18 of rails 16. The edges 21 and 22 of the rails 16 are turned inwardly toward each other and the edges 23 and 24 of the clips 34 are received snugly between the legs 17 and 18 and overlie the edges 21 and 22. The edges 23 and 24 rest on the edges 21 and 22 of the channel rails 16 and the edges 25 and 26 of the clips are turned down so that they cradle the structural member 114 between them. The bolt 27 has a shank 28 which is received in the square hole 29 in the clip and the bolt extends through the hole 30. A nut 31 is placed on the lower end of the bolt. Thus the rails 16 are rigidly fixed to the transverse or cantilevered members 14 and 114.
It will be noted that the side edges 13 and 15 of the clips restrain torsional movement of the rails 16 relative to the structural or cantilevered members 114 and 14 and likewise the legs 25 and 26 resist torsional movement of the clip relative to the members 114 or 14. The bolts 27 firmly hold the rails 16 and members 14 firmly together. Thus the entire pallet racking is rigid and resists shaking movements.
The foregoing specification sets forth the invention in its preferred practical forms but the structure shown is capable of modification within a range of equivalents without departing from the invention which is to be understood is broadly novel as is commensurate with the appended claims.
FIG. 1 is a partial isometric view of a pallet racking according to the invention.
FIG. 2 is an enlarged partial view of a part of the pallet racking showing an end view of the joint according to the invention.
FIG. 3 is another view similar to FIG. 2 of part of the pallet racking showing the joint.
FIG. 4 is an exploded view showing the parts of the joint according to the invention.
