Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
107 words
A bearer panel comprising; a panel body; and devices for supporting tools and the like, the devices being supportable by the body, which for this purpose has horizontal transverse grooves inwardly expanding in a sectional profile thereof, and each supporting device having a down-turned hook-shaped lug, disposed in an upper region thereof and insertable in one of the grooves, and having a slide-piece having an ear insertable in said groove, said slide-piece being movable vertically along a grooved portion of the supporting device upwards until the top edge of said ear is above an upper face of the lug, for locking the supporting device on the panel.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
107 words
A bearer panel comprising; a panel body; and devices for supporting tools and the like, the devices being supportable by the body, which for this purpose has horizontal transverse grooves inwardly expanding in a sectional profile thereof, and each supporting device having a down-turned hook-shaped lug, disposed in an upper region thereof and insertable in one of the grooves, and having a slide-piece having an ear insertable in said groove, said slide-piece being movable vertically along a grooved portion of the supporting device upwards until the top edge of said ear is above an upper face of the lug, for locking the supporting device on the panel.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
64 words
A bearer panel according to claim 1, in which the slide-piece has two ears (25,26) which, when the slide-piece has been moved vertically upwards, are disposed above the upper face of the lugs in parallel with the lugs, the slide-piece having, between the two ears, a springy tongue which in an uppermost position of the slide-piece engages the supporting panel and locks the slide-piece.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
21 words
A bearer panel according to claim 2, in which the ears having a top edge bevelled to provide a roof-shaped profile.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
42 words
A bearer panel according to claim 1, in which each supporting device has a vertical groove profiled in a dovetail shape, disposed on a back portion of the supporting panel body and in which the slide-piece is guided for its vertical moving.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
26 words
A bearer panel according to claim 1, wherein each slide-piece has a bottom edge with a cross-panel larger than the grooved portion of the supporting device.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
54 words
A bearer panel according to claim 1, wherein each supporting device has two hooks arranged horizontally side-by-side in an upper region thereof on a front part of the device and the ends of which are directed downwards, and having a support arranged between and below the hooks in a lower region of the device.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
20 words
A bearer panel according to claim 1, having a reinforcing panel secured to a back portion of the panel body.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
117 words
A bearer panel, comprising; a panel body constructed of plastic foam; and devices for supporting tools and the like, the supporting devices being supportable by the body, the body having horizontal transverse grooves which in a sectional profile expand into the panel in an approximate T-shape, and each supporting device having hook-shaped lugs which, in use, are inserted in a respective one of the grooves of said body, each supporting device having a vertically grooved portion and having a slide-piece movable along said vertically portion, said slide-piece having a portion inserted in said groove of said body, and means for locking said slide-piece in said grooved portion and thereby locking the the supporting device on said body.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
117 words
A bearer panel, comprising; a panel body constructed of plastic foam; and devices for supporting tools and the like, the supporting devices being supportable by the body, the body having horizontal transverse grooves which in a sectional profile expand into the panel in an approximate T-shape, and each supporting device having hook-shaped lugs which, in use, are inserted in a respective one of the grooves of said body, each supporting device having a vertically grooved portion and having a slide-piece movable along said vertically portion, said slide-piece having a portion inserted in said groove of said body, and means for locking said slide-piece in said grooved portion and thereby locking the the supporting device on said body.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
38 words
A bearer panel according to claim 8, in which the plastic panel body has parallel ribs defining the grooves and having fillets on ends of the ribs to define approximate T-shape, the fillets being wider than the ribs.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim

A bearer panel according to claim 8, in which the transverse grooves are closed at edges of the panel.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
60 words
A bearer panel according to claim 8, in which the panel body has a wavy profile, and has parallel transverse ribs each of which has at one end a fillet the width of which is greater than that of the respective transverse rib and which has longitudinal edges standing out on both sides over the longitudinal edges of the rib.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
37 words
A bearer panel according to claim 8, in which the plastic foam body has a wavy side edge and has parallel transverse ribs which have fillets on ends thereof, the fillets being wider than the transverse ribs.
