Rack frame

Abstract

A rack frame having two front and two rear supports, which can be closed off by means of wall elements, except for the front, and into which structural units can be built. Holders, on which the structural units can be fastened, are attachable to both front supports. Wall elements can be simply attached at arbitrary heights. Structural units with different installation depths can be attached so that they terminate flush with each other either in the front or the rear. This is accomplished by perpendicular longitudinal slots for receiving beveled edges of the wall elements that are formed in the exteriors of the rear supports. The rear supports have fastening strips, which extend spaced apart and parallel to the wall elements. Adjustable U-shaped fastening elements can be attached to the fastening strips, and are used to fix the wall elements. The front supports have longitudinal slots for receiving the beveled edges of the lateral wall elements on the lateral outer surfaces, and the front supports have fastening strips extending at a distance and parallel with the wall elements. Adjustable U-shaped fastening elements, to which these wall elements can be attached, are positioned on the fastening strips. The front supports have longitudinal receivers for the holders on their inner surfaces. The longitudinal receivers are parallel with the outer surfaces to which the holders can be attached, and thus the holders are adjustable in depth.
