Abstract

A platform-type shelf includes at least two lengthways lattice beams, at least two transverse lattice beams, at least two lengthways frame beams, and at least two transverse frame beams. Each lattice beam defines downward engaging grooves and upward engaging grooves. The lengthways lattice beams and the transverse lattice beams can be vertically snapped one other via a weaving technique. Each end of the frame beam has an outer tenon and an inner tenon, and the outer tenons of the two ends of the frame beam and the inner tenons thereof respectively have contrary locations in up-down direction. The outer tenons and the inner tenons of two adjacent frame beams are respectively engaged in a fastening manner. Thereby, the lattice-like platform-type shelf can be formed so as to entirely enhance its connecting force and supporting force, and to facilitate various derivative applications thereof.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A platform-type shelf, comprising a central lattice beam group, the central lattice beam group comprising at least two lengthways lattice beams and at least two transverse lattice beams, each of the lattice beams defining at least one downward engaging groove and at least one upward engaging groove, the lengthways lattice beams and the transverse lattice beams vertically snapping one other via engagements of the downward engaging groove and the upward engaging groove so as to form a weaved connection. 
   
   
       2 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the lattice beam defines a downward engaging groove and a upward engaging groove and a downward engaging groove in sequence, or a upward engaging groove and a downward engaging groove and a upward engaging groove in sequence. 
   
   
       3 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the lattice beam defines a upward engaging groove and a downward engaging groove and a upward engaging groove and a downward engaging groove in sequence, or a downward engaging groove and a upward engaging groove and a downward engaging groove and a upward engaging groove in sequence. 
   
   
       4 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the lattice beam defines a upward engaging groove and upward engaging groove and a downward engaging groove and a downward engaging groove in sequence, or a downward engaging groove and a downward engaging groove and a upward engaging groove and a upward engaging groove in sequence. 
   
   
       5 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein ends of the lattice beam define tenons. 
   
   
       6 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 5 , further comprising a frame beam group, wherein the frame beam group comprises two lengthways frame beams and two transverse frame beams, and each of the frame beams defines a plurality of mortise portions for insertion of the tenons. 
   
   
       7 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the mortise portions are mortise grooves or through holes. 
   
   
       8 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein each end of the frame beam has an outer tenon and an inner tenon, and the outer tenons of the two ends of the frame beam and the inner tenons thereof respectively have contrary locations in up-down direction. 
   
   
       9 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein each outer tenon is formed by first removing half of a partial inner side in width, then removing half of a lower portion or an upper portion in thickness; and each inner tenon is sequentially formed by removing half of the upper portion or the lower portion of the partial inner side in thickness. 
   
   
       10 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the lattice beam or the frame beam has at least one stilt extending downwards therefrom. 
   
   
       11 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the outer tenon is a tenon formed on the stilt, and the inner tenon is a groove formed on the stilt. 
   
   
       12 . A platform-type shelf, comprising a frame beam group, the frame beam group comprising two lengthways frame beams and two transverse frame beams, wherein each end of the frame beam has an outer tenon and an inner tenon, and the outer tenons of the two ends of the frame beam and the inner tenons thereof respectively have contrary locations in up-down direction, and the outer tenons of two adjacent frame beams are engaged in a fastening manner, and the inner tenons of two adjacent frame beams are engaged in a fastening manner. 
   
   
       13 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein each outer tenon is formed by first removing half of a partial inner side in width, then removing half of a lower portion or an upper portion in thickness; and each inner tenon is sequentially formed by removing half of the upper portion or the lower portion of the partial inner side in thickness. 
   
   
       14 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein the frame beam has at least one stilt extending downwards therefrom. 
   
   
       15 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 14 , wherein the outer tenons is a tenon formed on the stilt, and the inner tenon is a groove formed on the stilt. 
   
   
       16 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein the frame beams defines a plurality of mortise grooves or through holes. 
   
   
       17 . A platform-type shelf, comprising a foot part for supporting the platform-type shelf, the foot part comprising agglutinate bodies and a strip-type covering plate and a middle covering plate, each agglutinate body being formed by agglutinating four cubic poles, the agglutinate bodies being linearly arranged and agglutinated on the strip-type covering plate, the agglutinate bodies at two ends of the strip-type covering plate being covered by the strip-type covering plate at four sequential sides, the middle agglutinate body being covered by the middle covering plate at three sequential sides. 
   
   
       18 . The platform-type shelf as claimed in  claim 17 , further comprising a outer-frame box for receiving the platform-type shelf, wherein the outer-frame box comprises outer walls, strengthening walls and inflexed walls, and the bottom of the outer-frame box defines bottom plates connected with the inflexed walls, and each of two opposite inflexed walls has two insertion parts directly extending therefrom so as to insert between the adjacent outer walls and the inflexed walls.
