Shelving unit tie bar
The technology described herein includes a four-column shelving unit. One or more improved tie bars run between the front and rear shelf-support beams. The one or more tie bars are installed perpendicular to the shelf-support beams. The improved tie bar may take the overall form of a V-channel with a novel tri-notch connection on either end. The tri-notch connection allows the tie bar to connect with a front shelf-support beam on one end and a back shelf-support beam on the other end. The tri-notch connection includes two bottom notches and a top notch. The top notch may form a gap in the V-channel that allows the end of the tie bar to slip under a shelf-support flange on a shelf-support beam during installation. The two bottom notches are sized and shaped to receive an upward facing retention flange located on the bottom flange of the shelf-support beam.
Angle bar for shelf assembly
Provided is an angle bar for shelf assembly, the angle bar including a vertical frame in which a plurality of fastening grooves is formed and a horizontal frame on which a fastening protrusion is formed, wherein the plurality of fastening grooves, each including upper and lower grooves, are formed, the lower groove has a narrower width than the upper groove, and is connected to the upper groove with an inclination portion in between, wherein the fastening protrusion includes a convex portion having an inclination surface and first and second wing portions that are formed on lateral surfaces, respectively, of the convex portion, and wherein a distance between respective end portions of the first and second wing portions is smaller than a width of the upper groove and is larger than a width of the lower groove, and the convex portion has a wider width than the lower groove.
Slide rail kit
A slide rail kit is applicable to a rack. The rack includes at least one mounting structure having a first predetermined portion and a second predetermined portion. The slide rail kit includes a rail member and a supporting bracket. The supporting bracket is arranged on the rail member and includes a first mounting feature and a second mounting feature. The first mounting feature is configured to be mounted to the first predetermined portion of the rack. The second mounting feature includes an elastic member and a mounting member arranged on the elastic member. The mounting member can be mounted to the second predetermined portion of the rack in response to an elastic force of the elastic member.
VIBRATION DAMPING SHELF
Providing a vibration damping shelf which can suppress fall of articles placed on a shelf member while suppressing shake of other articles or the like. The vibration damping shelf includes a damper and shelf plates. The damper has two ends mounted, on a top surface of a piece of furniture and a ceiling spaced from each other in an up-down direction. The shelf plates are held on the damper.
Integral Installation Aid
An enclosure can have an enclosure body, the enclosure body can include an enclosure frame, and a first enclosure flange. The enclosure can have a center post having a first end and an opposite second end, the first end can include a first center post flange having a hole extending therethrough. The enclosure can include a gasket having a gasket hole therethrough, and a threaded fastener to threadingly engage the hole. The threaded fastener can be configured to rotate in a first direction while threadingly engaged with the hole, and the threaded fastener can contact the first enclosure flange to increase a distance between the first enclosure flange and the first center post flange in order to receive the gasket.
