FOLDABLE STORAGE RACK
The present invention discloses a foldable storage rack, comprising side frames, connecting arms and shelves. When unfolded, the foldable storage rack can satisfy a user's storage needs, and when the foldable storage rack is being transported or idle, the side frames, the connecting arms and the shelves of the foldable storage rack are folded in an interlinked manner. The foldable storage rack in a folded state occupies a small space and is convenient for storage and transportation. Additionally, in the unfolding or folding process, it is unnecessary to disassemble or assemble components, advantageous for preventing components from missing.
Shelving unit with capacity increasing shelving
A shelving unit includes a plurality of posts, a plurality of shelf-supporting beams attached to the plurality of posts to form a shelf support frame, and a shelf. The shelf has a plurality of sides seated on the shelf support frame. The plurality of the sides of the shelf includes a depending flange. At least one of the depending flanges extends downwardly along a respective shelf-supporting beam between about 30% and about 100% of the height of the shelf-supporting beam. Another shelf unit is further disclosed where the shelves include a color that corresponds to a color-coded system for organizing the storage of items on the shelving unit. A method of organizing a shelving unit utilizing the color-coded shelf system is also disclosed.
Storage system and article retrieving method
An apparatus is disclosed that provides a storage system designed to allow pickers to easily and efficiently pull products from all portions of the storage system from a single side of the storage system. The storage system includes a first storage rack that has a first plurality of columns and a first platform extending from one of the first plurality of columns. An outer edge of the first platform forms an end of the first storage rack. Positioned adjacent to the first storage rack is a second storage rack with a second plurality of columns and a second platform that extends from one of the second plurality of columns, where an outer edge of the second platform forms an end of the second storage rack. An aisle is formed by a predetermined distance between the outer edges of the first and second platforms.
Folding and unfolding space shelf
A folding space shelf has a lower backplane and an upper backplane that are connected by one or more hinges, and a pair of top crossbeams and a pair of upper stringers. Each top crossbeam has a first end hinged to an upper portion of the upper backplane and a second end rotatably connected to one of the pair of upper stringers. It further contains a pair of bottom crossbeams and a pair of bottom stringers. Each bottom crossbeam has a first end hinged to a lower portion of the lower backplane and a second end rotatably connected to one of the pair of bottom stringers. The folding space shelf also contains a pair of middle stringers, each having a first end connected to one of the pair of upper stringers and a second end hinged to one of the pair of the bottom stringers.
Shelf frame for a rack of shelves
A shelf frame for a rack of shelves includes an elongated body; a ledge extending perpendicularly from a bottom edge of the elongated body, the ledge having a width equal to a height of the elongated body; an elongated enhancement disposed along a top edge of the elongated body, the enhancement being bent toward the ledge; two upright extensions disposed at two ends of the elongated body respectively; and a plurality of fasteners disposed in each of the two upright extensions. The two upright extensions and the elongated body are on the same plane. Each of the two upright extensions has a length equal to twice of the height of the elongated body.
Formed support member
A formed support member that is structurally steady and easy to manufacture is disclosed herein. The formed support member comprises a downwardly facing U-shaped body, a first flat end, a first securing tab having one end integrally connected to the first flat end and another end extended downwardly to receive at least partially a first support surface of a first supporting beam, a second flat end, and a second securing tab having one end integrally connected to the second flat end and another end extended downwardly to receive at least partially a second support surface of a second supporting beam.
Formed support member
A formed support member that is structurally steady and easy to manufacture is disclosed herein. The formed support member comprises a downwardly facing U-shaped body as a load bearing surface, and a first flat end and a second flat end for securing the member to support beams and resisting movement of the member with respect to the beams. The formed support member may comprise at least one hole through the flat ends which allows the formed support member to be universally fastened to different sized horizontal beams for different storage needs.
Overhead storage system and method
Free standing storage system for garage spaces and the like, without requiring any attachments, and no tools are required. The system includes positioning vertical supports, each having ends with extendable threaded footers that can vertically abut each support against both a floor and ceiling. Posts can have a generally rectangular configuration with two short spaces between two supports on a left side and right side, and two long spaces between the two supports (posts) between the left and right posts. Accessory bar(s) can be positioned between the left and right side pairs of vertical posts. Fasteners, can attach parts together. A pair of telescoping horizontal beams positioned between the left and right side posts. Shelves with wire racks or boars can be used with the horizontal beams.
FORMED SUPPORT MEMBER
A formed support member that is structurally steady and easy to manufacture is disclosed herein. The formed support member comprises a downwardly facing U-shaped body, a first flat end, a first securing tab having one end integrally connected to the first flat end and another end extended downwardly to receive at least partially a first support surface of a first supporting beam, a second flat end, and a second securing tab having one end integrally connected to the second flat end and another end extended downwardly to receive at least partially a second support surface of a second supporting beam.
