Cantilever shelving system
A cantilever shelving system is disclosed and can include a frame structure, a cantilever shelf support structure, and a plurality of load-bearing shelves that can be supported by the cantilever shelf support structure and the frame structure. The shelves can be positioned laterally adjacent to cantilever support arms of the cantilever shelf support structure, and the shelf support surfaces can be coplanar with upper walls of the cantilever support arms. Ends of laterally adjacent shelves do not overlap with a front side of a vertical support member to which the cantilever support arm is mounted. The cantilever shelving system can accommodate various user requirements and can be operably integrated with standard commercial and/or industrial equipment or machinery.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPERATION OF COLLAPSIBLE MULTI-SHELF CARTS
A multi-shelf storage apparatus for storage of articles, comprising a wheeled base; a frame disposed on the wheeled base; a plurality of vertically-spaced shelves on the frame for providing a storage area for articles, each shelf configured to move vertically. The apparatus includes a lift mechanism disposed on the frame, coupled to the shelves, and configured to cause collapse and extension of the shelves in a vertical direction. The apparatus has an actuator on the frame operable to drive the lift mechanism, and a power interface on the frame and electrically connected to the actuator. The apparatus has a mechanical connection for connecting to a towing device and a first power interface integral to the mechanical connection such that the actuator can receive electrical power from the towing device. Systems comprising one or more of the apparatuses and methods for loading/unloading articles utilizing the apparatuses are also disclosed.
SHELVING SUPPORT BRACKET ASSEMBLY
A shelving system includes a support post having a mounting surface and a plurality of vertically spaced retention members extending from the mounting surface. A shelf includes a bracket member configured for coupling to a first of the vertically spaced retention members. A support bracket includes an attachment portion configured for coupling to a second of the vertically spaced retention members adjacent the first vertically spaced retention member and a support portion configured for coupling to the bracket member.
Deck rail shelf
An adjustable deck shelf assembly has repositionable components to enable the assembly to be secured to variably dimensioned and assembled deck railings. A shelf is secured to a hinged shelf support board with a removable locking shaft in a mechanical interference fit to permit removal and storage of the shelf and assembly. Hinged truss shelf supports secured to support legs can be deployed to support the shelf and retracted for storage. An adjustable deck shelf/seat assembly incorporates variable-height outriggers attached to truss shelf supports and a variable-height shelf support board to enable the assembly to be arranged as a shelf or as a seat.

SHOE RACK
A shoe rack includes a frame, at least one board, two rear connectors and two front connectors. The frame includes two lateral subframes each of which comprises at least one tilted beam. Each of the rear connectors includes a shaft rotatably connected to the board and a clip engaged with the tilted beam of one of the lateral subframes. Each of the front connectors includes a shaft rotatably connected to the board, a first clip, and a second clip located closer to the shaft than the first clip. The board extends horizontally when the first clip is engaged with the tilted beam of one of the lateral subframes. The board is tilted when the second clip is engaged with the tilted beam of one of the lateral subframes.
MODULAR ADJUSTABLE STORAGE ORGANIZER
An improved storage organizer (10) having a plurality of vertical modular side panels (30) providing support, adjustability of size, location and storage capacity for a plurality of horizontal, adjustable shelf rails (70), adjustable, extendable, pull-out shelves (20) and encoded labels (25A) enabling identification of stored items within upright freezers and refrigerators in the first embodiment. A user of the organizer (10) can assemble the organizer without tools in the first embodiment to suit various models, dimensions and inner configuration of the storage space and anticipated weight and sizes of items stored on the shelves. A user of the organizer can track quantity and content of stored items by means of encoded labels (25A) inserted in shelf label holders (25) and in or on packages containing stored items, both visually and by means of remote inventory control systems. Thus, a considerably more versatile, durable, modular and efficient storage organizer is provided—that can be adjusted to provide more or less storage capacity in most models of upright freezers and refrigerators in the first embodiment as well as in other cold, heated or room-temperature storage compartments in other embodiments with ease of tracking quantities and locations, viewing, adding, removing, rearranging, identifying and retrieving a variety of stored items.
