Ferner kann die Koppeleinheit alternativ oder zusätzlich zumindest ein korrespondierendes Rastelement, das insbesondere von einem Vorsprung, einer Ausnehmung oder einem anderen, einem Fachmann als sinnvoll erscheinenden Element gebildet sein kann, umfassen. Dadurch kann eine konstruktiv einfache und insbesondere werkzeuglos lösbare Koppelung des erfindungsgemäßen Systemmoduls mit zumindest einem Teil zumindest eines weiteren Systemmoduls erreicht werden.In addition, it is proposed that the at least one coupling unit comprises at least one latching element. In this context, a "detent element" should be understood to mean, in particular, an element which is elastically deflected during a fastening operation, to be subsequently sensed by a clamping force behind a corresponding detent element, in particular by a projection, a recess or another, which is considered appropriate by a person skilled in the art Element can be formed to latch.

Ferner wird vorgeschlagen, dass die zumindest eine Koppeleinheit zumindest ein Schubführungselement aufweist. Unter einem "Schubführungselement" soll in diesem Zusammenhang insbesondere ein Element verstanden werden, das dazu vorgesehen ist, eine insbesondere lineare Führung des erfindungsgemäßen Systemmoduls zu erreichen. Vorzugsweise bildet das Schubführungselement zumindest im Wesentlichen zumindest einen Teil einer Schubführung. Das Schubführungselement kann von einer Führungsnut gebildet sein. So kann das Systemmodul ähnlich einer Schublade vorteilhaft in das Aufbewahrungssystem, insbesondere in ein Systemregal, integriert werden. Dadurch kann eine konstruktiv einfache und insbesondere werkzeuglos lösbare Kopplung des erfindungsgemäßen Systemmoduls mit zumindest einem Teil zumindest eines weiteren Systemmoduls erreicht werden.It is also proposed that the at least one coupling unit has at least one push guide element. In this context, a "push guide element" is to be understood in particular to mean an element which is intended to achieve a particularly linear guidance of the system module according to the invention.

Ferner umfasst die Rahmeneinheit 10 der beiden Seitenwände 44, die eine geringste flächenmäßige Erstreckung aufweisen, jeweils eine Koppeleinheit 12. Die Koppeleinheiten 12 sind zumindest im Wesentlichen identisch und spiegelverkehrt zueinander ausgestaltet. Die Koppeleinheit 12 ist jeweils zu einer Kopplung mit zumindest einem Teil zumindest eines weiteren Systemmoduls 14, wie beispielsweise einem Werkzeugkoffer oder einer weiteren Rahmenstruktur vorgesehen. Die Koppeleinheit 12 ist jeweils zumindest teilweise einstückig mit der Rahmeneinheit 10 ausgestaltet. Die Kopplung durch die jeweils eine Koppeleinheit 12 ist von einem Bediener lösbar ausgestaltet. Jede Koppeleinheit 12 umfasst mehrere Koppelelemente.

In addition, the coupling unit 12 each have an operating element 52.

In Figur 1 ist das weitere Systemmodul 14, das mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Systemmodul gekoppelt ist, gestrichelt und schematisch dargestellt. Die als Rasthaken 48 ausgebildeten Rastelemente 26 der Koppeleinheit 12 des Systemmoduls greifen dabei in von Ausnehmungen 50' gebildete Rastelemente 28' einer Koppeleinheit 12' des weiteren Systemmoduls 14 ein. Die Kopplung ist von einem Bediener werkzeuglos lösbar ausgebildet. Hierzu kann der Bediener die Rastelemente 26 durch Drücken des Bedienelements 52 zur Lösung der Kopplung nach innen bewegen, wodurch die als Rasthaken 48 ausgebildeten Rastelemente 26 aus den als Ausnehmungen 50' ausgebildeten Rastelementen 28' der Koppeleinheit 12' des weiteren Systemmoduls 14 ausrasten.In FIG. 1 is the further system module 14, which is coupled to the system module according to the invention, shown in dashed lines and schematically. The detent elements 26 of the coupling unit 12 of the system module embodied as latching hooks 48 engage latching elements 28 'of recesses 50' of a coupling unit 12 'of the further system module 14. The coupling is detachable from an operator without tools. For this purpose, the operator can move the locking elements 26 by pressing the operating element 52 to release the coupling inwards, whereby the detent elements 26 formed as latching hooks 48 disengage from the recesses 50 'formed latching elements 28' of the coupling unit 12 'of the other system module 14.

Das Systemmodul und das weitere Systemmodul 14 sind zu einem Stapel gekoppelt. Vier Kanten 54 des Systemmoduls verlaufen in einem gekoppelten Betriebszustand zumindest im Wesentlichen entlang von gleichen Geraden wie vier Kanten 54' des weiteren Systemmoduls 14. Eine senkrecht zu den Seitenwänden 42, 44 der Rahmeneinheit 10 des Systemmoduls aufgespannte Außenebene, liegt an einer Außenebene des weiteren Systemmoduls 14 an. Das Systemmodul und das weitere Systemmodul 14 bilden hierbei zumindest einen Teil der Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung.

The system module and the further system module 14 form at least a part of the storage device. The storage device can be extended as desired by further, arbitrarily configured but corresponding system modules.

Zudem weist die Koppeleinheit 12 jeweils ein Schubführungselement 30 auf. Das Schubführungselement 30 ist als Führungsnut 56 ausgebildet. Die Führungsnut 56 ist dazu vorgesehen, mit einem korrespondierenden, nicht dargestellten Schubführungselement eines Elements des Aufbewahrungssystems zu korrespondieren. Das korrespondierende Element des Aufbewahrungssystems kann hierbei von einen Systemregal gebildet sein. Die Führungsnut 56 endet in einem Anschlag 58, der bei einer linearen Schubbewegung des Systemmoduls entlang dem korrespondierenden Schubführungselement einen Einschubweg begrenzt. Das Schubführungselement 30 ist einstückig in die Seitenwand 44 der Rahmeneinheit 10 eingebracht.In addition, the coupling unit 12 each have a push guide element 30. The push guide element 30 is formed as a guide groove 56. The guide groove 56 is intended to correspond to a corresponding, not shown push guide element of an element of the storage system. The corresponding element of the storage system can in this case be formed by a system shelf. The guide groove 56 terminates in a stop 58, which limits a push-in travel in the case of a linear pushing movement of the system module along the corresponding push guide element. The push guide member 30 is integrally formed in the side wall 44 of the frame unit 10.

In Figur 1 ist das Systemmodul in einem, eine erste Position definierenden Transportzustand gezeigt. In dem gezeigten Transportzustand sind eine Ebene, in der die Funktionseinheit 16 eine größte flächenmäßige Erstreckung aufweist, und eine Ebene, die sich senkrecht zu den Seitenwänden 42, 44 der Rahmeneinheit 10 erstreckt, parallel zueinander angeordnet.In FIG. 1 the system module is shown in a transport state defining a first position.

Hierzu weist das Systemmodul an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seitenwänden 44 der Rahmeneinheit 10 jeweils eine Positioniereinheit 20 auf. Die Positioniereinheiten 20 sind an denselben Seitenwänden 44 der Rahmeneinheit 10 befestigt, an denen auch die jeweils eine Koppeleinheit 12 angeordnet ist. In alternativen Ausführungsbeispielen können die Positioniereinheiten 20 an den Seitenwänden 42, die dann insbesondere keine Koppeleinheiten aufweisen, der Rahmeneinheit 10 befestigt sein.In FIG. 2 the system module is shown, wherein the functional unit 16 is arranged in a second position different from the transport state relative to the frame unit 10. For this purpose, the system module has a positioning unit 20 on two opposite side walls 44 of the frame unit 10. The positioning units 20 are fastened to the same side walls 44 of the frame unit 10, on which the respective one coupling unit 12 is arranged. In alternative embodiments, the positioning units 20 on the side walls 42, which in particular have no coupling units, the frame unit 10 may be attached.

Die Positioniereinheit 20 umfasst ein Schwenkelement 22. Das Schwenkelement 22 ist in Längsrichtung an einem ersten Ende drehbar um eine Achse 24 an der Rahmeneinheit 10 gelagert. An einem zweiten Ende des Schwenkelements 22, welches dem ersten Ende abgewandt angeordnet ist, ist das Schwenkelement 22 über eine Linearführung mit der Funktionseinheit 16 verbunden. Hierzu greift ein nicht dargestellter Zapfen des Schwenkelements 22 in einem montierten Zustand in eine schlitzförmige Aussparung 60 der Positioniereinheit 20 ein und ist in dieser geführt. Mittels des Schwenkelements 22 verbindet die Positioniereinheit 20 die Funktionseinheit 16 und die Rahmeneinheit 10 insbesondere lösbar miteinander.The positioning unit 20 comprises a pivoting element 22. The pivoting element 22 is mounted in the longitudinal direction at a first end rotatably about an axis 24 on the frame unit 10. At a second end of the pivoting element 22, which is arranged facing away from the first end, the pivoting element 22 is connected via a linear guide with the functional unit 16. For this purpose, an unillustrated pin of the pivot member 22 engages in a mounted state in a slot-shaped recess 60 of the positioning unit 20 and is guided in this. By means of the pivoting element 22, the positioning unit 20 connects the functional unit 16 and the frame unit 10 in particular detachably with each other.

Zwischen dem Zapfen des Schwenkelements 22 und der schlitzförmigen Aussparung 60 der Funktionseinheit 16 entsteht in einem montierten Zustand ein Reibschluss, sodass die Funktionseinheit 16 ohne ein Einwirken einer äußeren Kraft, beispielsweise durch einen Bediener, relativ zu der Rahmeneinheit 10 die aktuelle Position beibehält, d.h. positionierbar ist. Übt ein Bediener eine Kraft auf die Funktionseinheit 16 und/oder Rahmeneinheit 10 aus, so kann der Reibschluss überwunden und eine Position der Funktionseinheit 16 relativ zu der Rahmeneinheit 10 verändert werden. Durch den Reibschluss zwischen dem Zapfen des Schwenkelements 22 und der schlitzförmigen Aussparung 60 der Funktionseinheit 16 kann eine stufenlose Positionierung der Funktionseinheit 16 relativ zu der Rahmeneinheit 10 erreicht werden. Alternativ oder zusätzlich ist es auch denkbar, mehrere Raststufen zur Positionierung der Funktionseinheit 16 relativ zu der Rahmeneinheit 10 vorzusehen.Between the pivot of the pivoting element 22 and the slot-shaped recess 60 of the functional unit 16, a frictional connection is produced in an assembled state, so that the functional unit 16 retains the current position, ie can be positioned, without the action of an external force, for example by an operator, relative to the frame unit 10 is. If an operator exerts a force on the functional unit 16 and / or frame unit 10, then the frictional connection can be overcome and a position of the functional unit 16 relative to the frame unit 10 can be changed. Due to the frictional engagement between the journal of the pivoting element 22 and the slot-shaped recess 60 of the functional unit 16, a continuous positioning of the functional unit 16 relative to the frame unit 10 can be achieved. Alternatively or additionally, it is also conceivable to provide a plurality of latching steps for positioning the functional unit 16 relative to the frame unit 10.

Übt ein Bediener Kraft auf die Funktionseinheit 16 und/oder Rahmeneinheit 10 aus, die zumindest eine Komponente senkrecht zur Achse 24 aufweist, kann die Position der Funktionseinheit 16 relativ zu der Rahmeneinheit 10 so eingestellt werden, wie es für den Bediener im jeweiligen Anwendungsfall als sinnvoll bzw. praktisch erscheint. Dabei wird die Funktionseinheit 16 um die Achse 24 relativ zu der Rahmeneinheit 10 geschwenkt. Der Zapfen des Schwenkelements 22 gleitet zugleich in der schlitzförmigen Aussparung 60. So kann der Bediener beispielsweise das von der Lampe gebildete elektrische Gerät 32 präzise auf einen Arbeitsplatz des Bedieners gerichtet werden. Es ist ebenfalls denkbar, ein nicht dargestelltes Bedienelement vorzusehen, mittels dem ein Bediener die jeweilige Position der Funktionseinheit 16 relativ zu der Rahmeneinheit 10 lösen bzw. verändern kann.If an operator exerts force on the functional unit 16 and / or frame unit 10, which has at least one component perpendicular to the axis 24, the position of the functional unit 16 relative to the frame unit 10 can be set as appropriate for the operator in the respective application or practically appears. In this case, the functional unit 16 is pivoted about the axis 24 relative to the frame unit 10. The pin of the pivoting element 22 slides at the same time in the slot-shaped recess 60. Thus, for example, the operator can set the electrical device 32 formed by the lamp precisely to a workstation of the operator. It is also conceivable to provide an operating element, not shown, by means of which an operator can solve or change the respective position of the functional unit 16 relative to the frame unit 10.
