METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR STORING CLAMPS
A tool storage system has a universal mounting bracket coupled to a support surface formed with a plurality of apertures that align with differently sized support arms that support a tool therefrom. The apertures are aligned along a common horizontal plane and the support arms have different heights that allow tools to be hung therefrom in a nesting relationship so that more tools can occupy less space or area relative to the support surface. The nesting relationship of the tools provides for a first tool supported by the first arm to fit within a space defined by the second tool supported by the second arm. In some instance, the first and second arms may be part of a pair of support arms, respectively.
Firewood delivery rack system and method
A firewood delivery and storage system wherein a rack is loaded with firewood at a first origin position. The rack is placed on a wheeled dolly and then transported to a second storage and use position. The rack is then removed from the wheeled dolly. Thereafter, the customer can access the firewood, or move the firewood rack with a dolly or hand truck to a desired location.
Storage rack
A rack has a frame and a plurality of shelves. Each shelf has an enclosing frame member that has two first sides connected by two second sides, a connecting bar that connects the first sides at about the center of the first sides, a plurality of slots provided on the inner surfaces of the second sides, and a plurality of slats, each slat having opposing ends that are fitted into opposing slots at the second sides, and with each slat being connected to the connecting bar. At least one connector is provided for removably connecting each shelf to a portion of the frame.
MODULAR STRUCTURE FOR SHELVING
The modular structure for shelving comprises:a plurality of vertical uprights comprising at least one pair of first teeth arranged one on top of the other to define a first interlocking plane;a plurality of first metal sections provided with a cross section, higher than its width, of substantially tubular and parallelepiped shape, and with two ending parts provided with corners and with one pair of first clamping elements, arranged protruding in the proximity of the corners and superimposed on one another; the first clamping elements being spaced apart from one another to be coupled from top to bottom and in block configuration to any pair of the first teeth along the first interlocking plane, each first clamping element comprising a loop defining a passage slot and each of the ending parts of the first metal sections being substantially flat.
BEARING STRUCTURE FOR SHELVING
The bearing structure for shelving comprises: a vertical upright comprising a first metal section provided with at least a first longitudinal side and with at least a second longitudinal side, the first longitudinal side and the second longitudinal side being flat, continuous and transverse to each other; a longitudinal cross-piece; an angular bracket to be interposed between the vertical upright and the longitudinal cross-piece and comprising a first longitudinal face and a second longitudinal face, the first longitudinal face and the second longitudinal face being flat, contiguous and transverse to each other; wherein it comprises first connecting means arranged on the first longitudinal side and the first longitudinal face, and second connecting means, arranged on the second longitudinal side and the second longitudinal face, the first connecting means and the second connecting means coupling the angular bracket to the vertical upright.
SHELVING ASSEMBLY HAVING AN ADJUSTABLE BRIDGE SHELF
A closet organizer assembly has a first tower unit and a second tower unit, each tower unit having a plurality of shelves separated by vertical posts, each tower unit also having a plurality of top vertical posts, and a cantilevered shelf removably connected to the plurality of top vertical posts, with each cantilevered shelf having a border wall that includes a plurality of border wall openings. The assembly also includes a bridge shelf having a left end that is removably connected to the cantilevered shelf of the first tower unit, and a right end that is removably connected to the cantilevered shelf of the second tower unit.
Connector for Modular Rack Assembly
A rack assembly has two support frames and at least one shelf that are secured to the support frames by connecting assemblies. Each connecting assembly comprises a well secured to a medial surface of each vertical tube of the support frame, and a hook that extends from each end of each shelf, with each hook having an opening extending therethrough. The connecting assembly also includes a connector that is seated inside each well, each connector having a top plate that has an elongated opening, the connector also having a body that is sized and configured to fit inside a well, the body defining two wings with a space between the wings, and wherein each wing has a bump positioned in the center of the inner surface of each wing that faces the space. Each hook is inserted through the elongated opening of a corresponding connector with the bump on each wing fitted inside the opening of the hook to retain the hook inside the body of the connector.
Reconfigurable modular storage system
A reconfigurable modular storage system has a reconfigurable support for storage units of the storage system. The reconfigurable support includes an end frame member attachable to the storage unit in two reverse orientations and releasably attachable base members. When the end frame member is attached to the storage unit in a first orientation and the base members are unattached, a portion of the end frame member serves as a raised end railing of the storage unit. When the end frame member is attached to the storage unit in a second orientation and the base members are attached, the base members serve as a load-bearing supports for the end frame member and for the storage unit. Multiple end frame members may be vertically stacked to create multiple vertically stacked storage units.
Supporting an object at a window of a building by applying opposing forces to an interior surface and an exterior surface of the building
An apparatus for supporting an object at a window of a building comprises a first member, a second member, and a third member. The first member extends along at least a partial width of the window and abuts an interior surface of the building. The first member is configured to support the object by exerting an outward force on the interior surface of the building in response to a downward force exerted by the object. The first member also comprises at least two sections extending from the interior of the building to the exterior of the building. These sections may extend from the interior of the building to the exterior of the building about respective distal ends of the first member. The sum of the forces applied on the surfaces of the building are sufficient to secure the object to the building.
Formed support member with antirotation feature
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 engaging end, a second flat end and a second engaging end. The formed support member may comprise at least one hole on the engaging ends which allows the formed support member to be universally fastened to different sized horizontal beams for different storage needs.
