STORAGE RACK
A storage rack is provided. The storage rack includes a plurality of upright supports and a shelf support supported by each of the plurality of upright supports. The plurality of upright supports include a first upright support, a second upright support, a third upright support, and a fourth upright support each having an opening. The shelf support includes a shelf beam extending between the first and second upright supports. The shelf beam includes a body, a first tab, and a second tab. The first and second tabs each extend outwardly from an end of the body and are configured to engage the first upright support at opposing sides of the opening of the first upright support in order to detachably connect the shelf beam to the first upright support.
Alignment method and installation tool
An alignment tool and method that is easy to use during the installation of a base of a commercial storage rack over bolts extending up from a warehouse floor. The alignment tool comprises a cylindrical body having a first conically shaped upper end and a second lower end having a bolt receiving hollow opening therein. The opening extends up into said cylindrical body along a longitudinal axis of the body. The method includes placing the opening down over the bolts, with the conical top facing up, to protect the bolts and align the base as it is lowered over the bolts. The alignment tool can be easily removed, prior to bolting the base to the floor, such as with a removal tool through a hole in the alignment tool.
Alignment tool
An alignment tool that is easy to use during the installation and fastening of storage rack is disclosed herein. The alignment tool comprises a first end having a conical shape and a second end defining an opening therein, and the opening extending into said cylindrical body along the longitudinal axis. Once the storage rack is installed, the alignment tool can be easily removed with a removal tool through a hole in the alignment tool.
EASILY-DISMANTLED MESH-TYPE SHELF
An easily-dismantled mesh-type shelf, including a first bracket and a second bracket arranged on a side of the first bracket and spaced from the first bracket, where storage baskets for storing articles are installed between the first bracket and the second bracket; at least one lug piece is installed on opposite sides of the first bracket and the second bracket respectively; and the at least one lug piece is each formed by bending a metal strip. The lug piece is bent inwards to form a lug. Buckle supporting members are installed at the bottom of each storage basket. The buckle supporting members are clamped on the lugs of the corresponding lug pieces of the first bracket and the second bracket respectively, so that the storage basket is detachably connected with the first bracket and the second bracket.
Modular Rack Assembly
A frame structure for a cabinet enclosure has a front frame assembly having first and second front pillars, a rear frame assembly having first and second rear pillars, a first side brace member, and a second side brace member, each having a beam that has opposite ends, with the opposite ends of each side brace member connected to one of the front pillars and one of the rear pillars. The frame structure also includes cable management and air flow management features and functions.
Stackable rack for irregularly shaped products
A welded steel rack has angular protrusions on the top that engage matching recesses on the bottom for stacking, and has offset front posts that form a flue gap when arranged side-by-side. A deck is perforated.
A STORAGE SYSTEM
An inventory tracking system (10) for use in tracking articles (12) received in a cabinet (14) comprises at least one RFID read antenna assembly (100), an RFID tag interrogator (30), and an electrical connector arrangement (24). The cabinet comprises a receptacle (16), a holder (18) arranged in the receptacle and at least one metal substrate (20) received in the holder. The metal substrate is configured to receive at least one article carrying an RFID tag. The RFID read antenna assembly is mountable to the metal substrate, the antenna assembly comprising at least one antenna coil (102) and a high permeability layer (104). The RFID tag interrogator is configured to interrogate the RFID tag of the, or each, article received by the at least one metal substrate. The electrical connector arrangement has complementary components (26, 28) carried by the holder and the metal substrate for establishing, and breaking, an electrical connection between the interrogator and the at least read antenna assembly.
Audio equipment stand optimized to minimize noise floor
An audio equipment stand, comprising at least one shelf, the shelf bounded by a perimeter, at least three mounting brackets, each of the mounting brackets having a mounting section and a compression section, each of the compression sections having a compression aperture, the compression aperture having a compression centroid, and, securement means operatively arranged to secure the at least three mounting brackets to at least three mounting locations on the shelf, which mounting locations are internal to the perimeter such that at least three mounting centroids form at least three vertices of a first polygon, wherein at least three compression members provide support in a vertical direction for the mounting brackets and the at least one shelf, wherein the compression centroids establish vertices of a second polygon having at least one internal angle that is different from any other internal angle of the first polygon.
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.
Modular rack assembly
A frame structure for a cabinet enclosure has a front frame assembly having first and second front pillars, a rear frame assembly having first and second rear pillars, a first side brace member, and a second side brace member, each having a beam that has opposite ends, with the opposite ends of each side brace member connected to one of the front pillars and one of the rear pillars. The frame structure also includes cable management and air flow management features and functions.
