The base system can be designed as shown in FIG. 7, for example. Alternatively, the base system can be any combination of at least two base plates (FIG. 1A: 1) according to FIGS. 1A to 6B.
[0066] The base plate 1 is substantially rectangular in design, but not square. The base plate 1 is provided with connecting recesses 2 and connecting projections 3 around the edges, alternating at least indirectly, via which the base plates 1 can be connected to one another at the edges in a form-fitting manner, as shown, for example, in FIG. 7. Opposite sides 4 and 5 or 6 and 7 of base plate 1 are designed to complement one another. Each connecting recess 2 is designed in a dovetail shape and each connecting projection 3 is designed in a complementary dovetail shape.
[0067] In particular, the base plate 1 is provided all around its edges with connecting geometries 8, which are designed in the same manner, are directly adjacent to one another all around and are each formed by a first edge portion 9 of the base plate 1, a connecting recess 2, a connecting projection 3 and a second edge portion 10 of the base plate 1 in this order. The connecting recess 2 of the respective connecting geometry 8 is directly adjacent to the connecting projection 3 of this connecting geometry 8.
[0068] The base plate 1 can be at least partially designed as a flat pressed plate. The flat pressed plate can be provided on one or both sides, i.e. on its large sides, with a laminate not shown.
[0069] FIG. 1B shows a schematic top view of an underside 12 of the base plate 1 shown in FIG. 1A.

The base plate 25 differs from the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B solely in that, although the base plate 25 is rectangular and not square, it is designed to be half the size of the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B. To avoid repetition, reference is therefore made to the above description of FIGS. 1A and 1B.
[0079] FIG. 6B shows a schematic top view of an underside 19 of the base plate 25 shown in FIG. 6A. To avoid repetition, reference is therefore made to the above description of FIG. 1B.
[0080] FIG. 7 shows a schematic diagram and perspective view of an exemplary embodiment of a storage system 26 according to the invention for storing objects not shown.
[0081] The storage system 26 has ten small load carriers 27 in the form of Euro boxes placed on a flat underground not shown. Five small load carriers 27 are arranged in a row, wherein the two rows are laterally spaced apart from one another, leaving an intermediate space. A base plate 20 corresponding to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B is placed on each small load carrier 27, forming an exemplary embodiment of a base system 28. The respective base plate 20 is larger in the area of the connecting protrusions 3 and smaller in the area of the connecting recesses 2 than an upper side of the respective small load carrier 27.
[0082] In each case, two base plates 20 are connected to one another via a base plate 25 in accordance with the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, wherein the base plates 25 are also arranged in a row and connected to one another in pairs. The base plates 25 rest on the respective small load carrier 27 with their connecting projections 3 engaging in the connecting recesses 2 of the base plates 20. In this manner, a load-bearing, particularly accessible, intermediate base is formed above the small load carriers 27, wherein the intermediate space between the two rows of small load carriers 27 can also be used as storage space.
[0083] FIG. 8 shows a schematic diagram and perspective view of a further exemplary embodiment of a base system 29 according to the invention for placing on at least two standardized small load carriers, particularly Euro boxes, which are arranged next to one another on a flat underground not shown.
[0084] The base system 29 has five base plates 20 according to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, six base plates 25 according to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, and two base plates according to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, which are connected together to form a closed, rectangular surface.
[0085] FIG. 9a shows a schematic diagram and perspective view of a further exemplary embodiment of a storage system 26 according to the invention for storing objects.
[0086] The storage system 26 has five small load carriers 27 in the form of Euro boxes arranged in a row on a flat underground not shown. A base plate 20 corresponding to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B is placed on each small load carrier 27. The respective base plate 20 is larger in the area of the connecting protrusions 3 and smaller in the area of the connecting recesses 2 than an upper side of the respective small load carrier 27.
[0087] In addition, the storage system 26 has two connecting strips 30 extending parallel to one another, which can be produced from a wooden material, a plastic or a metallic material, for example. Each connecting strip has a rigid strip 36 and ten cylindrical connecting pins 31 arranged in a row on the strip 36, which can be inserted into the securing recesses 21 of the base plates 20 designed as through-holes, as shown in FIG. 9b. Alternatively, all connecting pins 31 of a connecting strip 30 can be curved towards the same side, such that the securing recesses 21 of the base plates 20 designed as through-holes on the base plates 20 by inserting the connecting pins 31 into the arranged connecting strip 30 cannot be lifted vertically from the base plates, which improves the bond between the connecting strip 30 and the base plates 20.
[0088] FIG. 9b shows a further schematic diagram and perspective representation of the bearing system 26 shown in FIG. 9a. The connecting pins shown in FIG. 9a are inserted, particularly form-fitting, into the securing recesses 21, whereby the base plates 20 are joined together to form a fixed connection.
[0089] In addition, the storage system 26 has two tension belts 32 with tension hooks 33 at the ends, wherein the tension belts 32 are guided over the connecting strips 30.
[0090] FIG. 10a shows a schematic diagram and perspective view of details of a further exemplary embodiment of a storage system 26 according to the invention for storing objects.
[0091] In FIG. 10a, only two connecting strips 34 are shown of the storage system 26, which extend parallel to one another and each have a rigid strip 36, two connecting pins 35 arranged at the ends of the strip 36 and curved away from one another, and four cylindrically designed connecting pins 31 arranged between them.
[0092] FIG. 10b shows a schematic diagram and perspective view of further details of the storage system 26 shown in FIG. 10a. In addition, particularly three base plates 20 corresponding to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B are shown. The central base plate 20 is already fully connected to the connecting strips 34 by placing the base plate 20 on the connecting strips 34 in such a manner that the cylindrical connecting pins 31 engage in the securing recesses 21 of the base plate 20, which are designed as through-holes. Subsequently, the two outer base plates 20 are connected to the connecting strips 34 by first inserting the curved connecting pins 35 into the securing recesses 21 designed as through-holes in the respective base plate 20, as shown in FIG. 10b. The base plates 20 are arranged at an angle. The inclined base plates 20 can then be lowered in such a manner that the outer connecting pins 31 engage in the securing recesses 21 designed as through-holes in the respective base plate 20, as shown in FIG. 10c. This forms a bond between the connecting strips 34 and the base plates 20, which can only be released in a certain manner and is therefore secured against unintentional release.
[0093] FIG. 10c shows a side view of the bearing system 26 shown in FIGS. 10a and 10b. Two additional small load carriers 27 of the storage system 26 in the form of Euro boxes are shown. A base plate 20 is arranged on each small load carrier 27. Between the two small load carriers 27 is the connection formed by the connecting strips 34 and the three base plates 20 as shown in FIG. 10b, which is connected at the end to the base plate 20 resting on the respective small load carrier 27. With the storage system 26 shown in FIGS. 10a to 10c, it is therefore possible to bridge a greater distance between small load carriers 27 in order to be able to form a desired loading floor and at the same time keep the space between the spaced-apart small load carriers 27 usable.
