A post coupler has one or more positive post stops therein limiting extension of an end of a post section in or over the coupler beyond the stop. The stops may be freely extended tabs or stop embossments from or in the coupler flanges. Outside wrap, inside wrap and hidden post couplers are disclosed, as well as assembly methods.

A modular storage system is provided with a plurality of upright side supports to be supported upon an underlying support surface. Each of the plurality of upright side supports is packaged separately. A plurality of horizontal cross members is provided to interconnect a pair of upright side supports. The plurality of horizontal cross members is packaged separately from the plurality of upright side supports.

The bearing structure for shelving comprises: —a vertical upright comprising a first metal section provided with at least a first longitudinal side and with at least a second longitudinal side, the first longitudinal side and the second longitudinal side being flat, continuous and transverse to each other; —a longitudinal cross-piece; —an angular bracket to be interposed between the vertical upright and the longitudinal cross-piece and comprising a first longitudinal face and a second longitudinal face, the first longitudinal face and the second longitudinal face being flat, contiguous and transverse to each other; wherein it comprises first connecting means arranged on the first longitudinal side and the first longitudinal face, and second connecting means, arranged on the second longitudinal side and the second longitudinal face, the first connecting means and the second connecting means coupling the angular bracket to the vertical upright.

An adjustable truss structure is provided and includes a truss member with a first channel attached to the truss member, the first channel having a first slot, and a rail having a second slot with an anchor attached to the rail. The anchor has a member rotatable to a first position where the member is insertable into the first slot and rotatable to a second position to engage with a surface of the first channel, enabling the rail to be selectively moved relative to the first channel and locked into a fixed position relative to the first channel. The adjustable truss structure also includes a support member having a second channel, the second channel being hooked into the second slot and being slidable in the second slot.

A modular wash/sanitation rack assembly having a wall support, a plurality of channels, a gear rack mount, and a gear support. The plurality of channels includes at least two wall support channels.

A functional rail system is mounted to the top of a modular office panel and supports a worksurface on the rail with the worksurface locked in position along the rail. The rail includes a channel in the upper surface for receiving an accessory, and a side accessory slot for mounting the worksurface. The worksurface may be mounted via an upper bracket and a lower bracket interfitted with each other and the side accessory slot to frictionally lock the brackets in place along the longitudinal length of the slot.

The invention concerns a load carrier for a rack for disposition at one or more rack uprights and for receiving loads with a load bearing contact surface for the purpose of storing loads and an upright contact surface section for disposition of the load carrier at the upright or uprights, wherein the load bearing surface section extends along the length and width of the load carrier and the upright contact surface section runs along the length and height of the load carrier, wherein the load bearing surface section and the upright contact surface section are disposed transversely to each other to form a support bracket, wherein for the purpose of reinforcing the load carrier, the load bearing surface section and/or the upright contact surface section are part of a hollow profile and/or have one or more corrugations. The invention also concerns a rack with corresponding load carriers and a method for making the same.

The method includes first connecting an upper portion of two or more vertical uprights to a first crossbar, second connecting a lower portion of the two or more vertical uprights to a second crossbar, inserting a projection of each of a pair of support brackets into a first cavity and a second cavity on respective ends of the first crossbar, the pair of support brackets each including a first engaging structure, and attaching the first engaging structure of each of the pair of support brackets to a first column and a second column of a consumer product display, respectively.

This museum showcase comprises a bearing frame and fixed and/or openable walls supported by the bearing frame. The bearing frame comprises a platform that includes joints connected to horizontal beams. The fixed and/or openable walls of the showcase are supported only by the joints. The weight of the walls is supported by the joints, whereas the horizontal beams are not subjected to significant stresses. It is thus possible to design the showcase in a particularly simple and therefore quick manner, choosing the lengths of each beam according to the dimensions of the showcase and leaving the support of the weights to just the joints.

A floating shelf includes a plank shelf, and a floating shelf bracket, configured to support the plank shelf, including a support connector and two or more shelf supports attached to one another by the support connector. The support connector and the two or more shelf supports may be permanently attached to one another so that the floating shelf bracket is a unitary, single-piece bracket. The support connector and the two or more shelf supports may be removably attached to one another.
