When it is wished to set up bearers intended to permit objects of various kinds to be supported thereon in shops and in other locations, for example sports and clothing shops, for the purpose of supporting sports accessories, clothes, shoes, etc. , but also in other shops or premises where it is wished to display goods that are offered fox sale, there is a need to be able to use bearers which are intended for other bearing purposes.

Previously disclosed through SE 512 387 C2 is an arrangement for holders that are set up directly on a panel or some other base, and to which bearers of a particular kind can be detachably attached. Such bearers are executed in such a way that they are not suitable for use with hollow profiles which are provided with a number of slotted openings distributed vertically along the aforementioned profile. The distance in the case of the aforementioned bearers is then too great to match such slotted hollow profiles. There is a possibility of punching slotted recesses in hollow profiles, which are subsequently screwed onto the wall or some mounting position. It is both costly and difficult, however, to execute such recesses in such a way that they match the bearers exactly so that the inward-folded punched tongues are aligned exactly in the right ; place. It is important for the bearers not to be loose in the mounted position with the associated risk of them dropping down or otherwise losing

their ability to support the intended objects correctly and steadily. There is a requirement to be able to use the same bearer for different kinds of holders and hollow profiles.

US 5, 356, 104 A illustrates a panel with a vertical slot 15, and an insert 20 is capable of being accommodated in a vertical channel 14. It also relates to hooks 18 and holders 12,-which are introduced from above and are already inserted in an insert 20 capable of being lowered into the channel 14. US 4,291, 810 A relates to a rail 12 with permanently arranged, pivoting spring-assisted clamps 10, which project into recesses 28 in the rail 12.

GB 105887 R shows the assembly of a rail from a number of parts, namely two central columns 20 and component parts 7a-7d capable of being clamped on top of them to form a vertical central column with horizontal beams.

None of the previously disclosed items relate to horizontal slotted accommodating openings and with means which securely retain attachment parts of bearers for objects introduced from the outside into desired openings intended for the purpose. It is also not possible to derive the concept of executing such securing means from what has previously been disclosed.

The principal object of the present invention is thus, in the first instance, to solve the aforementioned problems in a simple, reliable and effective manners The aforementioned object is achieved by means of an arrangement in accordance with the present invention, which is characterized essentially in that, internally in the aforementioned hollow profile, a rail is accommodated exhibits a number of recesses adapted to the aforementioned horizontal accommodating openings, which recesses extend at an angle for the purpose of accommodating the angled end part of each of the aforementioned bearers-with a distance guide formed at the edge of the rail bridging the distance between the inside of the hollow profile and the contact surface on

an angled attachment section in the bearer in question, in that the rail is maintained at a distance from the other side halls of the hollow profile arranged mutually opposite one another, for example by being attached to one another, and in that the rail exhibits L-shaped recesses distributed in the longitudinal sense of the rail and situated at a mutual distance from one another adapted to the distances of the aforementioned slotted accommodating openings from one another.

Further arrangements covered by the present invention are characterized in that the hollow profile exhibits circular cross-sectional form, in that slotted horizontal accommodating openings extend across and through the material in the hollow profile to a depth such that the width of the aforementioned openings essentially corresponds to the respective angled end part of the bearer, whereby the distance between the outside of the hollow profile in the area of each of the aforementioned openings and its respective end parts bridges the distance between each of the contact surfaces of the angled attachment part in the bearers, and which are so arranged as to come into contact with the external generating surface of the hollow profile and with the internal generating surface of the hollow profile, and in that the hollow profile exhibits angled cross-sectional form., in that slotted horizontal accommodating openings extend across and through the material in the hollow profile in the area of an angled part of the aforementioned hollow profile to a depth such that the width of the aforementioned openings essentially corresponds to the respective angled end part of the bearer, whereby the distance between the outside of the hollow profile in the area of the aforementioned respective openings and its respective end parts bridges the distance between the respective contact surfaces of the angled attachment part in the bearers, and which are so arranged as to come into

contact with the external angled generating surface of the hollow profile and with the internal generating surface of the hollow profile.

The invention is describe below as a number of preferred illustrative embodiments, in conjunction with which reference is made to the accompanying drawings, in which: Fig. 1 shows an arrangement in perspective and as a partially sectioned view; Fig. 2 shows a rail and a hollow profile viewed from the side and in cross-section, and also as views from above ; Fig, 3 shows hoLlow profiles with a rail accommodated therein viewed in perspective and in section; Figs. 4-4B show a holder viewed at an angle from below, from the side and from above; Fig. 5 shops a frame in accordance with the invention; Fig. 6 shows a rail viewed from one of its long edges, from the side and accommodated internally in a slotted hollow profile ; Figs. 7 and 8 show a first variant of the invention in conjunction with a profile tube viewed at an angle from the front and in cross-section; and Figs. 9-11 show a second variant of the invention in conjunction with an angled, rail-shaped hollow profile.

An arrangement 1 ; 101 ; 201 for rail-shaped hollow profiles 2; 102 ; 202, which exhibits slotted accommodation openings 3; 103; 203 through the material 4; 104; 204 in the aforementioned hollow profiles 2 ; 102 ; 202 at a mutual distance A; CA from one another in order to permit the detachable attachment of parts 5 ; 105; 205 of angled bearers 6 ; 106; 206 which are capable of being accommodated in desired openings in them to permit intended objects to be supported by them, is illustrated in Figs. 1-6 and in Figs.

7-8 and in Figs. 9-11.

In accordance with the first illustrative embodiment, a rail 8 is accommodated internally in the cavity 7 therein. This rail 8 exhibits a number of recesses 9, vhich are adapted to the aforementioned accommodating openings 3 and which extend at an angle X for the purpose of accommodating the angled end part 5 of each of the aforementioned bearers 6 that is capable of being i-rlserted through the intended opening 3.

Formed in this way is a distance guide 13 situated on at least one edge 11, 12 of the rail, which guide is so arranged as to bridge the distance B between the inside 14 of the hollow profile and. the contact surface 15 on an angled attachment part 5 in a bearer 6 of the kind in question when it is set in position I for support on the aforementioned hollow profile 2 in a previously disclosed fashion with intended objects supported by it, for example shelves, hangers, rail adapters, etc.

The aforementioned rail 8 exhibits a width C such that it entirely bridges the distance D between the internal, mutually opposing straight walls 14, 16 of the hollow profile 2 in the internal space 7 of the hollow profile.

The aforementioned rail 8 is maintained at a distance E from the pairs of additionally arranged, mutually opposing side walls 18, 19 of the hollow profile, for example by being attached. to one another with a small laeld at the respective ends 2A, 2B; 8A, 8B of the hollow profiles 2 and the rails 8.

The recesses 9 are preferably L-shaped viewed from the side and are distributed along the longitudinal extent 20,21 of the rail and are situated at a mutual distance F from one another and adapted to the distances A of the aforementioned slotted accommodating openings from one allother, l. e. so that they are situated directly'opposite one another and at identical distances. The aforementioned hollow profile 2 exhibits square cross-sectional form with slotted

horizontal accommodating openings 3 extending through pairs of walls 14, 16 that are situated opposite one another. A rail 8 is capable of being accommodated internally the aforementioned hollow profile 2, and the aforementioned rail 8 exhibits the aforementioned recesses 9 arranged opposite one another in pairs on common levels N1, N2, N3.... at which the accommodating openings 3 in the hollow profile 2 are situated, on both longitudinal vertical edges 11, 12 of the rail.

The width G of the aforementioned slotted accommodating openings 3 in the hollow profiles 2 slightly exceeds the width H. of the angled end parts 5 of the bearers that are capable of being introduced through it, and the rail 8 and the hollow profile 2 appropriately exhibit essentially the same lengths K and L as one another.

As an alternative solution, although not illustrated in the drawings, an aforementioned rail provided with recesses can be formed by a homogeneous or tubular part capable of being introduced into the hollow profile 2 from its one end 2A, 2B.

Illustrated in the drawings in Fig. 5 is a square frame 23, which is depicted as square tubes having dimensions of 30 x 30 mm and with a material thickness of 1.5 mm.

Slotted holes 3 are laser-cut on both sides of the aforementioned tube in a single common piece, which is then mitred and folded at the corners 24,25 around the remaining sheet metal and is TIG-welded together. The recesses in the rails 8, which are accommodated internally in the respective long piece 2, 2 of the frame, are laser-cut and arranged so that they are retained in position, for example with welds. A bottom attachment 26 is connected at the bottom to the aforementioned long pieces of the frame.

With reference to Figs. and 8, an arrangement 101 in accordance with the invention is shown here in conjunction with rail-shaped hollow profiles 102, which exhibit slotted

accommodating openings 103 at a mutual distance CA from one another for the detachable attachment of parts 105 of angled bearers 106 that are capable of being accommodated in desired openings 103 for the purpose of supporting intended objects thereon, where the hollow profile 102 exhibits circular cross-sectional form. Slotted accommodating openings 103 extend across and through the material in the hollow profile 102 to a depth such that the width CG of the aforementioned openings 103 essentially corresponds to the angled end part 105 of each bearer. The distance CB between the outside 150 of the hollow profile 102 in the area of each of the aforementioned-openings 103 and their respective end parts 151,152 bridges the distance CX between the contact surfaces 105A, 105B of each of the angled attachment parts 105 in the bearers 106, which are so arranged as to come into contact with the external generating surface 150 of the hollow profile and with the internal generating surface 153 of the hollow profile. The need for an extra internal rail with recesses is avoided in this way, and the bearers are retained effectively by point contact 154, 155, 156 or, rather, by linear contact from the outside and from the inside with the circular hollow profile 102, as clearly shown in Fig. 8. The attachment part 105 in the respective bearer 106 exhibits straight cross-sectional form and is so arranged as to maRe contact with its mutually opposing against the internal generating surface 153 of the hollow profile.

With reference, finally, to Figs. 9-11, an arrangement 1 in accordance with the invention is shown here in conjunction with rail-shaped hollow profiles 202, which exhibit slotted horizontal accommodating openings 203 at a mutual distance from one another for the detachable attachment of parts 205 of angled bearers 206 that are capable of being accommodated in desired openings 203 for the purpose of supporting intended objects thereon, where the

hollow profile 202 exhibits angled cross-sectional form.

Slotted accommodating openings 203 extend across and through the material in the hollow profile 202 in the area of an angled part 275 of the aforementioned hollow profile 202 to a depth such that the width CCG of the aforementioned openings 203 essentially corresponds to the width CCH of the angled end part 205 of each bearer. The distance CCB between the outside 250 of the hollow profile 202 in the area of each of the aforementioned openings 203 and their respective end parts 251,252 bridges the distance CCX between the'contact surfaces 205A, 205B of each of the angled attachment parts 205 in the bearers 206, which are so arranged as to come into contact with the external angled generating surface 250 of the hollow profile and with the internal generating surface 253 of the hollow profile. The need for an extra internal rail with recesses is also avoided in this 'ay, and the bearers are retained effectively by point contact 254,255, 256 or, rather, by linear contact from the outside and from the inside with the angled hollow profile 202, as clearly shown in Fig. 11. The attachment part 205 in the respective bearer 206 exhibits straight cross-sectional form and is so arranged as to make contact with its mutually opposing side edges 257,258 against the internal generating surface 253 of the hollow profile.
