Platform-Type Shelf and Assembling Method thereof

Abstract

A platform-type shelf includes at least two lengthways lattice beams, at least two transverse lattice beams, at least two lengthways frame beams, and at least two transverse frame beams. Each lattice beam defines downward engaging grooves and upward engaging grooves. The lengthways lattice beams and the transverse lattice beams can be vertically snapped one other via a weaving technique. Each end of the frame beam has an outer tenon and an inner tenon, and the outer tenons of the two ends of the frame beam and the inner tenons thereof respectively have contrary locations in up-down direction. The outer tenons and the inner tenons of two adjacent frame beams are respectively engaged in a fastening manner. Thereby, the lattice-like platform-type shelf can be formed so as to entirely enhance its connecting force and supporting force, and to facilitate various derivative applications thereof.

Description

BACKGROUND[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a platform-type shelf and, more particularly, to a platform-type shelf assembled with lattice beams and an assembling method thereof. The platform-type shelf can be used as articles such as table, chair, bed set, worktable, trestle, pallet, padding plate, shelf and so on.[0003]2. Description of the Prior Art[0004]A conventional board or table for supporting weight is generally formed of a platform-type faceplate and supporting lattice beams. The board or table is a platform-type shelf such as, for example, a pallet for loading and unloading, a padding plate, a table, a chair, a bed set, a worktable etc. A main body of the platform-type shelf for directly supporting weight has been gradually changed to the supporting lattice beams instead of the faceplate. However, because lengthways lattice beams and transverse lattice beams both are columns with comparative thickness and width, they are generally engage...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0006]The present invention provides a platform-type shelf and an assembling method thereof, which weave and connect the lengthways and the transverse lattice beams into a lattice-like structure via a weaving technique so as to thereby entirely enhance the connecting force and supporting force of the platform-type shelf.

[0007]The present invention also provides a platform-type shelf and an assembling method thereof, which can make the platform-type shelf achieve an interlocking effect between components thereof so as to thereby form a firm structure without the use of tools, rivets and nails, and which are also advantageous to induce the application of environment-protection materials and to facilitate various derivative applications of the platform-type shelf.

Problems solved by technology

Such arrangement results in that the lengthways lattice beams and the transverse lattice beams cannot generate a stable connecting force therebetween.

When an outside force in a certain direction is accidentally exerted to the platform-type shelf, it is readily distorted or loosed.

Also, if the engaging structures are not accurately machined, the engagement therebetween may need adhesive to increase the connecting force.

Thus, such manufacturing and assembling process is relatively fussy and obviously cannot fully achieve the economical benefit of manufacture.
