A collapsible rack assembly includes a vertical support, a first elongated shelf having a first corner region and a rail extending therefrom, and a second elongated shelf including a second corner region having a notch apparatus. The vertical support is structured to extend between and support the first and second elongated shelves when the collapsible rack assembly is in an ASSEMBLED position. The notch apparatus is configured to receive the rail in order to allow the first elongated shelf to nest within the second elongated shelf when the collapsible rack assembly is in a COLLAPSED position.

An industrial rack apparatus includes upright support members, at least one pair of shelf beams that are supported by the upright support member, at least one shelf connected to one pair of the at least a pair of shelf beams; wherein one pair of the upright support members is positioned at one end of the rack apparatus, and the other pair of the upright support member is positioned at the opposite end of the rack apparatus; wherein each shelf beam of the at least one shelf beams is attached to two opposed upright members of the upright support members.

Storage and grow rack systems include splice joints for stacking and joining upright posts, structural support beams with integral drainage, and studs or rivets providing releasable attachment of cross members to upright posts.

Assembly systems of particular use in assembling modular units, e.g., modular furniture, are provided. More particularly, a t-slot mechanism is provided that facilitates efficient, effective and aesthetic modular unit assembly.

A blind rack for storing a plurality of blinds has a support frame including a horizontal frame. A plurality of load bearing arms are connected to the horizontal frame, and the plurality of blinds to be stored on the blind rack are indexable with respect to the horizontal frame.

A rack assembly includes a column member including a first side surface that includes a plurality of recessed portions provided at a regular interval in an axial direction, and a second side surface that is adjacent to the first side surface, and a beam member including a first part that includes a protruding portion and that faces the first side surface, and a second part that is provided adjacent to the first part and that faces the second side surface, where each of the plurality of recessed portions extends in a normal direction of the second side surface, and the beam member is movable between a first position at which the second part faces the second side surface in a state where the beam member is separated from the column member, and a second position at which the beam member is fixed to the column member.

A hang harvesting system includes a plurality of stackable pods each including a platform, and a plurality of support shafts extending vertically from the platform. Each of the support shafts defines a plurality of notches configured for suspending a horizontal bar from the support shafts. Top ends of the support shafts of one pod are configured to support a platform of another pod thereon.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a vertical shelving unit with rails following a curvilinear path protruding into the shelving space and slidingly supporting a lip of a bin. The vertical shelving unit may, for example, include multiple vertical posts (VPs) defining a three-dimensional space. The VPs may, for example, include a set of horizontal support members (HSMs) coupled to the VPs on opposing sides of the space. The HSMs may, for example, be used to couple to the VPs on opposing sides of the space. For example, when a bin is inserted between the opposing sides, a protruding lip of the bin may be supported by the upper most surface of the HSMs. Each of the HSMs may, for example, include an upper HSM connected by a truss structure to a lower HSM. Various embodiments may advantageously provide a modular shelving unit that individually suspends storage bins.

A four-column shelving unit with knockdown bracing running between the front and rear columns to form an end frame. The shelving unit comprises end frames formed by connecting a front column and a rear column to each other with knockdown bracing. The knockdown bracing may comprise a diagonal knockdown brace, a top knockdown brace, and a bottom knockdown brace. The knockdown bracing transitions from the knockdown state to the assembled state by pivoting on a hinge that connects one end of the bracing to the column. To complete assembly a pivot screw or other connector may be used to secure the unhinged end of the knockdown bracing to the opposite column. In an aspect, the top and bottom knockdown bracing are hinged within a first column, while the diagonal knockdown bracing is hinged within the second column.

A tension brace for a goods rack includes a tension brace main plate. Tension brace connection plates connected with second vertical connection plates of corresponding transverse braces are symmetrically disposed at both ends of length direction of the tension brace main plate. The tension brace connection plates are detachably connected with the corresponding second vertical connection plates respectively. A tension brace top plate pressed on a top end of a horizontal plate is disposed on a top end of the tension brace main plate. A matching gap for avoiding a combination structure of the horizontal plate and an inclined plate is respectively disposed at both ends of length direction of the tension brace main plate. In the tension brace for the goods rack in the present disclosure, the tension brace is detachably connected between the corresponding transverse braces.
