A shelf support, especially for loft shelving, comprises an elongate member intended to support a shelf, the member having a respective socket at each of two mutually opposite ends, and two mounting brackets each comprising two spaced-apart arms and each insertable into a respective one of the sockets to be positionable therein with the arms projecting away from the member in the length direction of the member so as to provide securing projections for embracing and securing to a respective mount on which the support is to be mounted.

A connector and a frame structure using the same, wherein the connector at least comprises a socket, a bolt and an expansion bolt; the socket comprises a connection end, and a slot, which extends along a length direction of the socket from an end surface of the connection end, is provided on the socket; the bolt comprises a bolt main body that is adapted to the slot, a front end of the bolt main body is provided with at least two expansion arms, and the bolt main body is internally provided with an expansion channel which traverses the bolt main body along a length direction; and the expansion bolt comprises an expansion bolt main body that matches the expansion channel, a front end of the expansion bolt main body is provided with an acting end that interacts with the expansion arm, and the socket and the bolt are tightly connected by means of an expansion force that is generated by the acting end opening the expansion arms. The aforementioned connector achieves quick disassembly and assembly, and also has the advantages of reliable connection, convenient disassembly and assembly and long service life.

A kit of parts for use in demountably configuring a variety of structural assemblies. A kit may comprise a plurality of cylindrical structural components configured for engagement with various types of male connector components along the sides or at the ends of the cylindrical structural components, there provided for demountable engagement of a female-end socket component at the end of another cylindrical structural component. The kit may additionally comprise components for one or more of roller carriage assemblies and/or one or more of sliding carriage assemblies configured for rolling or sliding movement along rail assemblies comprising a plurality of cylindrical, square, rectangular, or octagonal track components. The rail assemblies may be supported by bases comprising the cylindrical structural components and other components such as weight components, as well as threaded foot components or threaded caster components on which the rail assemblies can be adjustably levelled.

A pollination control structure comprises a support; a plurality of support fixings, each support fixing being attached to or integral with the support, and; a barrier member comprising a plurality of barrier member pieces. At least one of the barrier member pieces is releasably attached to at least one of the support fixings by an intermediate fixing. The barrier member piece is releasably attached to the intermediate fixing, and the intermediate fixing is releasably attached to the support fixing.

An above ground frame pool (10) includes a frame assembly (20) and a liner (40) supported by the frame assembly (20). The frame assembly (20) includes a plurality of horizontal pipes (22), a plurality of vertical pipes (24), and a plurality of T-shaped joints (30). The joints (30) may lack mechanical fasteners with adjacent pipes or corresponding apertures. The joints (30) may be one-piece or multi-piece structures. Such joints (30) may be water-resistant and convenient to manufacture, assemble, disassemble, and store.

Anchoring system for formwork struts comprising a male element with a seat for joining the head of a strut and at least one pin, the seat and the pin being configured so that when in use, the pin is perpendicular to the plane containing the two struts to be anchored together, the pin having a protuberance at the end, as well as a female element comprising a bar with a flat surface, said flat surface comprising a slot perpendicular to the longitudinal dimension of the bar, with a width smaller than that of the protuberance and at least one portion with a width larger than that of the pin, comprising an opening for the introduction of the pin in the slot in a position, such that when in use, the opening is located in a position lower than the slot and the pin is fastened in an upper area of the slot.

A Tubular Framing System and Method. The system and method enables users to create structures from tube stock, such as carbon fiber or other composites without the need for a specialized workspace or customized tooling. The system allows the user to create joints, attachment points and mounting points for tubular and sheet composite material. When assembled, the joints between tubular segments and the attached termination fittings provide unparalleled tensile strength without the need for adhesives or special testing for verification. The system includes base assemblies, mid-span bracket and mounting assemblies and a wide range of versatile connectors that can provide the user with the flexibility to easily and rapidly create a wide variety of structures from strong and lightweight composite tube stock and aircraft-grade aluminum connectors.
