(54) Shelving system


(57) system to keep articles as for instance books or files upright on a shelf, said system comprising a back member along the rear edge of the shelf and at least one support consisting of a support portion and a coupling portion at right angles to the support portion, wherein the coupling portion can be coupled with the back member in an uncoupable manner and can be moved along the back member. The coupling member fits with slight tolerance between the bottom of a channel-shaped profile along the upper edge of said back member and the shelf or the foot portion of the back member. Along its lower edge said back member may be an integral part of the shelf, but it may also be a separate component that can be secured to the rear wall of a cupboard. The back member can also be secured by auxiliary members each consisting of a telescopic portion which is insertable between the channel and the foot of the back member and of a securing portion extending at right angles from the telescopic portion, said securing portion being adapted to be secured to a side wall of a cupboard. The system also comprises an anchorage system consisting of a strip having a vertical slot, the inserting portion of an auxiliary member being insertable in the slot and being pivotable to a position flat against the strip, after which the strip is secured on a side wall of a cupboard.
