MOUNTING BRACKET FOR EQUIPMENT RACK
An equipment rack, a bracket for mounting on the equipment rack, and associated methods. The bracket includes a bracket body including a mounting section configured to mount equipment on the bracket. The bracket is configured to engage the frame assembly and form a releasable snap-fit connection with the frame assembly. The bracket can be configured to form mating connections with the frame assembly different than the snap-fit connection.
EQUIPMENT RACK HAVING MOUNTING BRACKETS
An equipment rack, mounting break thereof, and associated methods. The bracket is secured to a frame assembly of the equipment rack by a releasable snap-fit connection. The snap-fit connection can maintain engagement of the bracket with abutments of the frame assembly and/or maintain mated connections of the bracket with the frame assembly. The brackets can be used to mount electrical power distribution units, cable baskets, or other equipment.
Shelving connector
A sleeve for a shelving unit has two halves joined together to form two support tabs extending outward from opposing sides of the sleeve as the sleeve clamps around a post having grooves into which a rib on the sleeve fits to hold the parts relative to the post. The support tabs have a retaining flange offset from the sleeve. A first collar part fastened to a shelf fits over half the sleeve and fits into that offset so that a slot in the first collar part fits over one of the support tabs to clamp them to the post and support the first collar part and shelf. The retaining flange keeps the collar part from moving off the support tab. A second collar part with a second slot may fit over the other support tabs to support a second shelf or to further clamp the sleeve to the post.
FURNITURE SYSTEM
The present invention relates to a modular furniture system for displaying and storing articles, which is particularly suitable for being erected in shops, at home or in industrial companies, e.g. in an industrial store. In particular, it relates to a modular furniture system comprising: (a) a first panel having at least one track on a surface of the panel, the track running the length of the panel; (b) a display or storage means adapted to slide along the length of the track; and (c) a fastening means for securing the display or storage means at a desired position along the track.
SHELVING CONNECTOR
A sleeve for a shelving unit has two halves joined together to form two support tabs extending outward from opposing sides of the sleeve as the sleeve clamps around a post having grooves into which a rib on the sleeve fits to hold the parts relative to the post. The support tabs have a retaining flange offset from the sleeve. A first collar part fastened to a shelf fits over half the sleeve and fits into that offset so that a slot in the first collar part fits over one of the support tabs to clamp them to the post and support the first collar part and shelf. The retaining flange keeps the collar part from moving off the support tab. A second collar part with a second slot may fit over the other support tabs to support a second shelf or to further clamp the sleeve to the post. Interlocking means on the collar parts prevent lateral separation.
Rack assembly
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.
Connection device, structural system and shelving unit
A connection device is disclosed for installing a shelf or a shelf frame on a vertical support to construct a shelving unit The connection device includes a hanger component and a bracket. The hanger component is equipped with a main body designed to be suspended from the vertical support such that an engagement portion engages behind a perforation of the vertical support and a support portion is arranged outside of the perforation. The bracket includes a housing portion designed to rest against the vertical support and a cavity shaped to receive the support portion of the main body of the hanger component. The bracket includes a clamping mechanism for clamping the housing portion of the bracket together with the vertical support when the cavity of the housing portion receives the support portion, and the main body of the hanger component is suspended from the perforation of the vertical support.
Parallelly-connectable storage rack
The present disclosure discloses a parallelly-connectable storage including: a plurality of bamboo-joint rods provided with a plurality of installation positions in their length direction; a clip piece arranged at the installation position of the bamboo-joint rod; a main tier-panel, of which four corners are respectively provided with a tapered casing engaging with the clip piece, and which is respectively provided with two hook holes on two end faces spliced with each other; and a first accessory tier-panel, of which two corners of one end is provided with tapered casings configured to engage with the clip piece, wherein two hook holes are opened on the end face of one side provided with the tapered casings, and of which the other end is provided with two hooks used to fit with two hooks used to connect with the hook holes disposed on the main tier-panel.
RACK ASSEMBLY
A collapsible rack assembly includes a vertical support; a first elongated shelf having a first midpoint region, a rail extending therefrom, and a first end perpendicular to the rail; and a second elongated shelf including a second midpoint 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 first end 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.
Attachment device for securing a shelf to a shelving unit
A shelving unit has a plurality of posts, a shelf, and a shelf attachment device. The shelf has corner edges that are coupled to the posts. The shelf attachment device is formed as a separate component from the posts and the shelf. The shelf attachment device is attachable to one of the plurality of posts, and detachable from the one of the plurality of posts. The shelf attachment device has a ledge that removably receives corner edges of the shelf. The shelf attachment device has a collar that extends around the one of the plurality of posts when the shelf attachment device is attached to the one of the plurality of posts. The shelf attachment device has a lock plate that is slidably engaged with the collar to secure the collar to one of the plurality of posts.
