The present invention discloses a connecting structure, a connecting method and an article containing the connecting structure. The connecting structure includes a fastener, a first connecting member adjacent to the trailing end of the fastener and a second connecting member away from the trailing end of the fastener. The second connecting member is provided with a threaded connecting hole, which in the axial direction thereof is provided with thread matching with the form of thread of the fastener and having a central angle of at least 180 degrees. The first connecting member is provided with a connecting hole, and the fastener connects the two connecting members through the threaded connecting hole and the connecting hole. The connecting method achieves quick connecting with the connecting hole of the first connecting member by preloading the fastener to the threaded connecting hole, without being affected by the assembly space. The connecting structure and the connecting method can be used in a variety of articles. The thickness of the threaded connecting hole is equal to the pitch of the fastener. The form of thread of the threaded connecting hole is fitted with the thread of the fastener by only one turn, which during processing can be made directly in the form of stamping, resulting in a simple processing and improving the processing efficiency.

A cabinet system includes a frame at least partially defined by a plurality of vertical legs and a shelf defining a first plane and supported by the plurality of vertical legs. The vertical legs extend transverse to the first plane. A countertop is supported by the plurality of vertical legs. A body panel is coupled to the frame and has a plurality of apertures. A door is coupled to the frame and operable to selectively provide access to the shelf. The door has a plurality of apertures. Posts are coupled to the frame and extend transverse to the first plane. Each post of the plurality of posts is configured to extend through (i) an associated aperture of the plurality of apertures in the body panel to couple the body panel to the frame or through (ii) an associated aperture of the plurality of apertures in the door to couple the door to the frame.

A shelving system (11) and a bracket (10) for a shelving system comprising, the bracket (10) comprising a first end portion (19), an intermediate portion (18) and second end portion (20). The intermediate portion (18) comprises a flexible wall portion being moveable from an open position, in which the flexile wall portion is planar, to a closed position, in which the flexible wall portion is arcuate. In the closed position, the flexible wall portion can wrap around a portion of a post (14) and the first and second end portions (19, 20) engage to form a connector (32) engageable with an end of a rail (16) for supporting drawers.

Disclosed herein are various embodiments of a display unit with built-in, hollow vertical supports that are formed out of a single sheet of material. As one example, a display unit having a plurality of built-in, hollow vertical supports for supporting one or more shelves is provided. The display unit includes: a first single sheet of material folded into: (i) a plurality of vertical panels; and (ii) a first set of built-in, hollow vertical supports of the plurality of built-in, hollow vertical supports, wherein each built-in, hollow vertical support contacts one or more of the plurality of vertical panels; and a first shelf of the one or more shelves disposed within the frame and supported by each built-in, hollow vertical support of the first set of built-in, hollow vertical supports.

The carriage decking device comprises four deck maneuver rails arranged in pairs and opposite one another, and connectors, connected at the deck maneuver rails, and which are capable of sliding up and down along the deck maneuver rails. A certain number of positioning holes are axially distributed on the deck maneuver rails. Yokes are connected on external sides of each connector, and partitions are fastened between the yokes. A depressed mounting cavity is provided on the internal side of each yoke, and a stop pin is provided inside the mounting cavity. A connecting hole that aligns with the stop pin is provided on each connector, and the stop pin extends into the connecting hole. A clutch that enables the stop pins in the mounting cavities to connect with the positioning holes of corresponding deck maneuver rails or to detach from the positioning holes simultaneously is provided between two neighboring yokes.
