Patent number: 10028582Abstract: A storage system comprising a drawer frame and one or more boxes. The drawer frame comprises first and second guides with a U-shaped cross section, which is open towards the interior of the drawer frame such that flanges of a box can be inserted into the guides to thereby support the box slideably in the drawer frame. Clips are attached slideably to the guides and engage with the box through a clip connection device interacting with a box connection device of the box, which prevents the box from falling out of the frame.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2015Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: ELFA INTERNATIONAL ABInventors: Peter Nilsson, Lars Ryden

Patent number: 9879460Abstract: A sliding door arrangement with a sliding door, a rail guiding a sliding motion of the door, and an attenuation and retraction device. The attenuation and retraction device includes a lid with a slot that is open towards the rail. The door includes a pin having an end adapted to enter the slot for interacting with attenuation and retraction device when the pin reaches an entry point of the attenuation and retraction device. The lid includes ramp portion adapted to interact with the pin such that the pin reaches further into the slot after passing the entry point as the door approaches an end position.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2014Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignee: Elfa International ABInventor: Peter Nilsson

Patent number: 9869115Abstract: A sliding door for use with a rail system, having a rail, which guides a sliding motion of the door, and an attenuation and retraction device, which brakes the sliding motion of the door at a brake position in the vicinity of a door end position and retracts the door to the end position. The sliding door includes a pin, which is slideably attached to the door, slideable between a pin retracted position and a pin extended position, a tip of the pin interacting with the attenuation and retraction device. The door further includes a wheel carried by a wheel holder, which is arranged to move the wheel between a wheel retracted position and a wheel extended position. A transmission mechanism interconnects the wheel holder and the pin such that a movement of the wheel, towards the wheel extended position, urges the pin towards the pin extended position.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2014Date of Patent: January 16, 2018Assignee: Elfa International ABInventor: Peter Nilsson

Patent number: 9603468Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a holding device for a bracket in a storage system. The holding device has a connecting part and a holding part, the connecting part being elongated and bent, along a line in the elongated direction to form, in cross-section, a U-shape with a first and a second leg. The first leg is intended to be inserted into a bracket and second leg being connected to the holding part having a holding feature, such as hooks, a box, or a basket.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2012Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: ELFA INTERNATIONAL ABInventor: Peter Nilsson

Patent number: 9532663Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a combination of a support device (1, 33) and a holding device (7), the support device comprising an attachment surface having rows (5) with elongated slot openings (3, 3?), and the holding device comprising an attachment part (9) and a carrier part (11). The attachment part is intended to be attached to the support device by being partly inserted into a first slot (3), such that the holding device can take up a load directed in the plane of attachment surface, and the carrier part (11) being capable of supporting an item to be stored. A stem part (13) interconnects the attachment part and the carrier part and the stem part includes a fin (15) that fits into a second slot (3?) which is located under said first slot (3). This provides a more reliable connection to the support device. A holding device suitable for this combination is also considered.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2013Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: ELFA INTERNATIONAL ABInventor: Peter Nilsson

Patent number: 9398819Abstract: A basket may include a basket frame, a hook assembly and a bottom. The basket frame has a meshed unit, and an upper board and lower board extending from the meshed unit. The upper board has a side frame with reversed U shape, and the lower board has an L-shaped portion. The basket frame is made in one piece to avoid soldering, which would decrease the structural strength of the basket. Also, the upper board has a side frame with reversed U shape and the lower board has an L-shaped portion to enhance the structural strength of the basket frame, so the bottom can sustain heavier objects. Furthermore, the basket frame and the bottom are all meshed, the objects are unlikely to fall out from the basket.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2014Date of Patent: July 26, 2016Assignee: Elfa International ABInventors: Cheng-Yuan Tsai, Peter Nilsson

Publication number: 20150152904Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a device for facilitating assembling of a product involving attaching a first surface (5), of a first part, to a second surface (7), of a second part. The device comprises a first unit (9) intended to be embedded in the first surface and a second unit (11) unit intended to be embedded in the second surface, and having a cavity that is open at the second surface. The first unit comprises a piston (17), which is moveable between a retracted acted position and an extended position, where the piston extends out of the first unit. The second unit comprises an activator part that interacts magnetically with the piston such that the piston moves to the extended position, extending into the cavity, when the first and second surfaces are in contact and the first and second openings are aligned.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2013Publication date: June 4, 2015Applicant: Elfa International ABInventor: Peter Nilsson
