  • Patent number: 8496127
    Abstract: A method for producing a stacking column (P) for storing storage items above or alongside one another on pawls (13) which are arranged between two side walls (1, 2) such that they can rotate about an axis (12), the side walls (1, 2), pawls (13) and mounting brackets (7) form an assembly for producing stacking columns (P) of varying pitch.

  • Patent number: 7878343
    Abstract: The invention relates to a stacking column for holding warehouse items, in particular bodywork parts, on the support arms of ratchet levers, which pivot about a rotational axis from a resting position into a working position. Several ratchet levers are located above one another or next to one another and cooperate with one another. A supporting element, which in the working position lies on or against a preceding ratchet lever, rotates with the latter.

  • Publication number: 20070152544
    Abstract: A stacking pillar comprising two lateral faces and latches which are disposed therebetween and pivotable around an axle bolt from a neutral position to a working position. At least one part of the latches is provided with the axle bolt reception area which encompasses the axle bolt partly in a curved bow manner.

  • Publication number: 20060226102
    Abstract: The invention relates to a stacking column for holding items of stock, in particular bodywork parts, on the support arms (6) of ratchet levers (7.1-7.6), which pivot about a rotational axis (13) from a resting position into a working position. Several ratchet levers (7.1-7.6) are located above one another or next to one another and co-operate with one another. A supporting element (18, 18.1, 18.2), which in the working position lies on or against a preceding ratchet lever (7.1-7.6), rotates with the latter (7.1-7.6).

  • Patent number: 7070058
    Abstract: A horizontal stacking column used to store articles which are placed next to each other at a reciprocal distance on two-armed rachet levers which are rotationally mounted on two axes of rotation between two wall strips, comprising a carrier arm for holding the article to be stored in addition to a control arm. The axes of rotation form an acute angle (w) with the wall strips.

  • Publication number: 20040050813
    Abstract: The invention relates to a horizontal stacking column used to store articles which are placed next to each other at a reciprocal distance on two-armed ratchet levers (6a, 6b, 6c) which are rotationally mounted on two axes of rotation (5) between two wall strips (2,3), comprising a carrier arm (18) for holding the article to be stored in addition to a control arm (19). The axes of rotation (5) form an acute angle (w) with the wall strips (2,3).

  • Patent number: 6234743
    Abstract: A stacking column for storing articles comprises a plurality of ratchet elements each having a carrying arm and a control arm. The plurality of ratchet elements are arranged successively in one plane such that the carrying arms of each ratchet element are arranged in one vertically extending plane and the control arm of each ratchet element is arranged in a laterally offset manner relative to the carrying arm of the same ratchet element between any two successive ratchet elements. The control arms of the ratchet elements are also arranged in a laterally alternating manner relative to the one vertically extending plane.

  • Patent number: 5938051
    Abstract: In the case of a stacking column for storing articles, in particular vehicle-body parts, on carrying arms (3) of ratchet levers (2) which pivot around a pivot pin (6) from a rest position into an operating position, it is the intention for a plurality of ratchet levers (2.1-2.6) to be arranged one above the other or one beside the other and to be in operative connection. In this case, an intermediate ratchet element (14.1-14.5) is provided between two adjacent ratchet levers (2.1-2.6) and, once the article has been placed in position on or against one ratchet lever (2.2), can itself be placed in position, by virtue of the pivot movement of the other ratchet lever (2.3), on or against the article on the other side of the one ratchet lever (2.2).
