A display mounting system having outriggers for supporting removably mountable support brackets, including at least two outriggers and at least two support brackets. In one embodiment, the outriggers each include a center tube, two end C-channels, and a side U-channel. Each of the end C-channels connects lengthwise to narrower sides of the center tube. The side U-channel connects lengthwise to one of the wider sides of the center tube. Each center tube includes at least two rows of slots formed in at least one of the wider sides of the center tube, along the length of the center tube. The support brackets are mounted by engagement with at least some of the slots. In another embodiment, the outrigger includes a rectangular slotted mounting plate slid into an extruded frame, the frame having at least two elongated entry slots formed substantially parallel to each other by which to access the plate.

A device for connecting modular metal shelving units, comprising at least two props (1) and at least one connecting element (2), for mutual coupling of the two props (1). Each prop (1) comprises central couplings (14), first distal couplings (16) and second distal couplings (17), and each of the couplings (14,16,17) comprises a central coupling (11) and a first adjustment slot (12). The connecting element (2) comprises a first grouping (21) of pins (20), which can be inserted into the first distal couplings (16) of a prop (1), and a second grouping (22) of pins (20), which can be inserted into the second distal couplings (17) of another prop (1). The first adjustment slot (12) of the first distal couplings (16) is diametrically opposed to the first adjustment slots (12) of the central couplings (14) and the second distal couplings (17).

Free standing storage system for garage spaces and the like, without requiring any attachments, and no tools are required. The system includes positioning four or six vertical supports (posts), each having ends with extendable threaded footers/screw type jacks that can vertically abut each support (post) against both a floor surface and a ceiling surface. Posts can have a generally rectangular configuration with two short spaces between two supports (posts) on a left and right side, and two longs spaces between the two supports (posts) between the left and right pairs of supports (posts). Fasteners, can attach parts together. A pair of telescoping horizontal beams can be positioned between the left and right side posts. Horizontal accessory bars and horizontal beams can support storage racks, and/or hooks for additional storage for items that can include rakes, shovels, bicycles, electrical cords, brooms, wood, and the like.

A slide rail mechanism includes a rail, a first supporting member, and a second supporting member. Each of the first supporting member and the second supporting member can be displaced with respect to the rail. A first bracket is disposed at the first supporting member, and a second bracket is disposed at the second supporting member. The first bracket and the second bracket enable the rail to adapt to different pairs of posts of different post spacings.

A shelf unit includes four leg rods and two assembly mechanisms. The leg rods extend in an up-down direction, are spaced apart from each other, and are equally divided into two leg pairs. Each of the assembly mechanisms includes a first connecting subunit that is mounted to a top end of a respective one of the leg pairs, and a second connecting subunit that is mounted to a bottom end of the respective one of the leg pairs. One of the first and second connecting subunits of each of the assembly mechanisms has two engaging holes each of which is configured to be non-circular. The other one of the first and second connecting subunits of each of the assembly mechanisms has two through holes each of which corresponds in position to a respective one of the engaging holes of the assembly mechanism in the up-down direction.

A spring clip upright connection for rack shelving includes one upright with tabs and square cutouts and another upright with slots with metal spring clips. As the tabs of one upright are inserted into the slots of the other upright, the uprights are aligned and the spring metal clips open up. When the tabs are fully inserted, the clips latch into the cutouts of the slots of the other upright thereby engaging the upright sections together. This latching prevents one upright from being removed from the other upright while the slots and tabs maintain the appropriate alignment of the uprights.

A position adjustable support assembly is convertible to and from a tool case, to allow transport with a plurality of articles attached thereto. A segmented position adjustable support assembly has a center assembly and a left and right assembly. The left and right assemblies are rotatable about the center assembly and the vertical supports of the center, left and right assemblies can be retained in base and top-receivers of a tool case. Retainers may secure the segmented assembly to the base and top. This allows a user to mount the segmented assembly in a first work location, and then convert the segmented assembly to a tool case for transport to a second work location.

A slide rail mechanism includes a rail, a first supporting member, and a second supporting member. Each of the first supporting member and the second supporting member can be displaced with respect to the rail. A first bracket is disposed at the first supporting member, and a second bracket is disposed at the second supporting member. The first bracket and the second bracket enable the rail to adapt to different pairs of posts of different post spacings.
