Abstract (en)

The system uses rails (101) in the form of extrusions fixed to a supporting surface (102) such as a wall, made with apertures (116) for fixing brackets, shelves or suspended equipment. Each rail has an omega-shaped cross-section with two branches (114) connected by a crosspiece (115), and two side branches (113) which act as stops for the panels. Between its central and side sections each rail is equipped with thrust elements (120,130) designed to engage elastically in recesses and having a height which depends on the required level of the panels relative to the rails. In addition, the side sections of the rail have teeth (118) to grip the thrust elements. <IMAGE>
