A rack for storing goods has supports which extend between crossbeams. The supports are downwardly open profiles having a first and a second side wall. A horizontal wall connects the side walls and forms a goods support. At least one crossbeam has two slots, each with a locking projection that engages in an opening in the respective side wall. The openings are located in short end portions of the side walls. Central portions form a majority length of the side walls. The end portions are separated from the central portions by a slot which extends from the lower edge of the side wall over a portion of the height of the side wall. The end portions have in the direction toward the lower edge thereof a wall extent which in comparison with the wall extent on the central portion is offset in the direction toward the profile center plane.

In a recent article storage apparatus, it is required to be able to open and close the opening of a container by a simple operation while reducing the number of parts of the article storage apparatus.

An article storage apparatus includes a storage rack (12) on which a container (24) having an opening is set, and a lid (28) provided at a separate member from the container, and reciprocable between a closed position where the lid (28) closes the opening of the container (24) arranged at a predetermined position on the storage rack (12) and an open position where the lid (28) is retracted from the closed position to open the opening. Thereby, for example, when a plurality of containers (24) are sequentially arranged on the storage rack (12), the containers (24) can be opened and closed by a simple operation using a common lid (28).

A lift structure of a rack storage system including a pair of vertical post, a pair of guide rail portions stacked one on top of the other, a mounting brace, and a mounting platform attached to the pair of vertical post. The mounting brace includes an adjustment mechanism to adjust an alignment between the pair of guide rail portions fastened together by a clamping plate. A load handling station is secured to the mounting platform to support loads transported to and from the rack storage system, wherein the load handling station is located by locating a position of the mounting platform.

A storage rack assembly includes a base steel structure which is interchangeably connected to the storage rack above. The base steel structure assembly is compromised of structural material with bolted connections which allow for the replacement or changing of damaged material due to accidental forklift contact all while the above storage system stays in place.

A modular repair kit for repairing damaged pallet rack frames and a method of installation thereof which incudes modular elements that can be customized by mechanical process such as cutting, drilling and connecting, for example, by bolts, that avoids major modifications, such as welding, at the installation site. The modular repair kit utilizes a standard replacement post assembly that can be cut to fit into nearly any size gap that is created when the damaged portion of the pallet rack frame is removed. The remaining elements of the repair kit can then be customized to accommodate any size of the standard replacement post assembly.

A storage device includes a pair of supports each extending in an up-and-down direction and spaced apart in a first direction; a pair of attachments each attached to a side surface by a fixing member having a shaft part, the side surface being a surface of each of the pair of supports and facing the first direction; and a platform supported by the pair of attachments and on which an article is to be placed, wherein each of the pair of attachments has a hole through which the shaft part is disposed, and an area of the hole is larger than an area of a cross-section of the shaft part orthogonal to an axial direction of the shaft part to such an extent that the pair of attachments are rotatable along the side surfaces of the pair of supports.

Systems and methods directed to shelving systems include a frame and one or more translatable shelves. The shelves are supported on rails and are horizontally translatable from a rearward position to a forward position. When adjacent shelves are respectively most rearward and most forward, certain shelf and frame structural cooperation enhance shelf access and shelf removability. Provided a single shelving kit, certain shelf configuration may be customized for particular end uses.

A material loading device includes a loading frame and at least one first locking mechanism. The loading frame defines a receiving cavity and at least one opening communicating with the receiving cavity. Opposing inner walls of the loading frame define a plurality of first slots. The at least one first locking mechanism is disposed at the at least one opening. The at least one first locking mechanism includes a first locking portion extending downwards. The first locking portion includes a plurality of second slots and a plurality of blocks adjacent to the plurality of second slots. The first locking portion can drop by gravity, driving the plurality of blocks to move to and lock the plurality of first slots. The first locking portion can also be lifted, to drive the plurality of second slots to move to and unlock the plurality of first slots.
