A rack for storing goods has supports which extend between crossbeams. The supports are downwardly open profiles having a first and a second side wall. A horizontal wall connects the side walls and forms a goods support. At least one crossbeam has two slots, each with a locking projection that engages in an opening in the respective side wall. The openings are located in short end portions of the side walls. Central portions form a majority length of the side walls. The end portions are separated from the central portions by a slot which extends from the lower edge of the side wall over a portion of the height of the side wall. The end portions have in the direction toward the lower edge thereof a wall extent which in comparison with the wall extent on the central portion is offset in the direction toward the profile center plane.

A frame hooking and connecting structure includes a column, each side of which is formed with a first through hole, and a parallel second through hole. A first support rod is provided to hook the column. The two ends of the first support rod are extended with a fastening part, and the free end of the fastening part is connected with a first hook, which is hooked and positioned to the bottom edge of the first through hole, and the fastening part is attached to a corresponding end surface of the column. A second support rod is provided to hook the column. The ends of the second support rod are respectively extended with a second hook, and the free end of the second hook penetrates through the hollow portion and the second through hole into the column, and is locked to the bottom edge of the second through hole.

A tie bar for connecting two horizontal beams includes first and second elongate walls arranged parallel to each other, and a third elongate wall arranged perpendicular to the first and second elongate walls and coupled to a lateral side of each of the first and second elongate walls. The tie bar further includes at least one pair of hook elements positioned at terminal ends of at least one of the first, second, or third elongate walls. Each of the hook elements includes a depending tab configured to be received by an elongate slot of a horizontal beam of a shelving unit. The first and second elongate walls may be top and bottom walls, respectively, the third elongate wall may be a side wall, and the at least one pair of hook elements may include first and second hook elements positioned on the second elongate wall.

A load carrier for a rack for disposition at one or more rack uprights and for receiving loads with a load bearing contact surface for the purpose of storing loads and an upright contact surface section for disposition of the load carrier at the upright or uprights, wherein the load bearing surface section extends along the length and width of the load carrier and the upright contact surface section runs along the length and height of the load carrier, wherein the load bearing surface section and the upright contact surface section are disposed transversely to each other to form a support bracket, wherein for the purpose of reinforcing the load carrier, the load bearing surface section and/or the upright contact surface section are part of a hollow profile and/or have one or more corrugations. Also, a rack with corresponding load carriers and a method for making the same.

A modular frame with a U-shaped hook member includes multiple upright columns each having at least two faces of each of the multiple upright columns have multiple couples of first through hole and second through hole defined therein. Multiple horizontal columns are respectively connected to a corresponding one of the at least two faces of a corresponding one of the multiple upright columns. Two connecting blocks respectively mounted into a corresponding one of two opposite ends of the tube. Two U-shaped hook members are respectively mounted into a corresponding one of the two connecting blocks. Each U-shaped hook member includes a first hook and a second hook extending therefrom and respectively engaged to a lower portion of a corresponding on of the first through holes and the second through holes.

A utility rack includes a pair of end supports for supporting one or more shelves there between. Each end support includes a first vertical support having one or more cross members mounted thereto and a second vertical support. The cross members may be mounted to one or more cross member mounts of the first vertical support and are configured to be movable relative to the first vertical support between a stored position in which they are disconnected from the second vertical support and are collapsed inwardly towards the first vertical support for storage or transport and an extended position in which free ends of the cross members may be attached to the second vertical support using fasteners.

The present invention relates to a piece of modular furniture, comprising a set of elements which can be coupled by fitting to one another, wherein the set of elements comprises at least two pairs of vertical posts, wherein each vertical posts has housings in which conformations of horizontal slats are introduced, and at least one shelf having indentations which can be fitted to the vertical posts, and in that the two vertical posts of each pair reach the end user in a manner in which they are joined to one another by means of the horizontal slats, such that they form a single, ladder-like assembly unit; such that at least one shelf is supported at its ends on the horizontal slats with the vertical posts fitted in the indentations of the shelf, constituting the corresponding furniture just like that.

Bath shelving units with at least one rear stability bar are disclosed. The bath shelving unit may be installed behind a toilet or any other desired location. The stability bar may be connected between rear vertical leg assemblies, each of which comprises a lower and an upper rear leg section. The stability bar may be oriented horizontally, and may be used to help fasten the lower and upper rear leg sections together.

Methods and systems for modular fuel storage and transportation are provided. In an embodiment, a fuel storage system includes one or more fuel containers each supported by a fuel container support assembly. The fuel storage system may be mounted to a transportation device such as a vehicle or used in a stand-alone fashion. Each support assembly may include a plurality of detachable end support members such as end support members configured to support the end portions of the fuel container and side support members configured to support the body portion of the fuel container. Some of the end support members may include neck grooves such that when the end support members are coupled, the neck grooves form an enclosure around the neck portion of the fuel container. In an embodiment, the support assembly is configured to facilitate release of excess pressure in the fuel container.
