PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OFF THE INVENTION
[0012] FIG. 1 represents a view A of a section of the modular shelving (100) according to the present invention (which is shown in FIG. 4). This section shows a bar (10) that is part of the shelving (100), a tray (12) and a fixing plate (16), in addition to some screws (18) that are screwed to the fixing plate (16) allow the fixing plate (16) to be screwed to the tray (12) and to the bar (10) of the shelving (100) increasing the stability of the modular shelving (100).
[0013] The set of trays (12) together with the four bars (10) that make up the shelving (100) can be seen in FIG. 4, which also shows the view A of FIG. 1. The shelving (100) is a quadrangular shelving with rectangular shape that includes four bars (10) with holes (which are not seen in the figure) that define the heights of the shelving (100) for placing the trays (12). As can be seen in FIG. 4, the shelving (100) comprises, for example, 5 rectangular trays for this preferred embodiment. In other embodiments, the trays can be square-shaped and the number of trays can vary.
[0014] FIG. 2 shows an example of a tray (12), The tray (12) comprises four corners (3) wherein an opening (14) is established. Said openings (14) allow the stacking of two or more trays (13) for storage and transport. Furthermore, each corner (13) comprises a pair of holes (15a, 15b) for attaching the tray to the bars (10) of the shelving (100).
[0015] FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C show a fixing plate (16) according to the present invention, each plate is formed by a first sector (16a) angled at 90 degrees with a second sector (16b) as seen in the FIG. 3A. The first and second sectors (16a, 16b) comprise a first and a second hole (17a, 17b), respectively. The first and second holes (17a, 17b) are adapted to match or coincide in diameter with the pair of holes (15a, 15b) of the corner (13) of the tray (12) and at the same time, said pairs of holes (17a, 17b) and (15a, 15b) are adapted to match a pair of holes on the bar (10).
[0016] Thus, the pairs of screws (18) shown in FIG. 1 are adapted to screw each plate (16) to said corner of the tray (12) and to the shelving bar through the first and second holes of the plate (17a, 17b), the second pair of holes (15a, 15b) and the first pair of holes of the bar (10).
[0017] Screwing the plate (16) to the tray (12) and to the bar (10) of the shelving (100) contributes the attachment of said elements to each other and therefore the assembly of the modular shelving (100) which is shown in FIG. 4. Advantageously, screwing the fixing plate (16) connects the ends of the corner (13) of the tray (12) covering the opening (14). Consequently, the plate increases the stability of the shelving (100).
