The application relates to a method of establishing four profiles which when releasably mounted together are forming a cabinet frame. The profiles are having folding areas comprising cutout parts.

The present invention relates to an assembly station for assembling modules used in a modular storage system for barrels. The modular storage system includes a base rick module, an aisle rick module, and an end rick module, whereby a plurality of each module type may be assembled to construct a rickhouse. The assembly station can include a vertical post assembly station, transfer rollers, a main module assembly area, dunnage supports, and a dunnage feeder conveyor system.

A shelving system formed by a plurality of vertical posts and horizontal traverses held together through frictional engagement. Disposed between each lateral pair of posts is at least one traverse which includes a male frictional engagement member configured to engage with a removable female frictional engagement member disposed on each post. The post and traverse engage with each other so as to create a proportional or supportive reaction force in response to any shear force applied to the shelving system. Each of the female frictional engagement members has a tapered edge which forms a closely fitted coupling between the post and each traverse. Each of the female frictional engagement members may be selectively disposed in one of a plurality of positions along the height of each vertical post. The shelving system further includes top and bottom connectors, both of which also frictionally engage with the vertical posts.

A rack has a frame and a plurality of shelves. Each shelf has an enclosing frame member that has two first sides connected by two second sides, a connecting bar that connects the first sides at about the center of the first sides, a plurality of slots provided on the inner surfaces of the second sides, and a plurality of slats, each slat having opposing ends that are fitted into opposing slots at the second sides, and with each slat being connected to the connecting bar. At least one connector is provided for removably connecting each shelf to a portion of the frame.

The invention discloses a column-beam connecting assembly capable of being manually assembled, including connecting columns and connecting beams. The connecting column is formed with an arc channel along the axial direction. The arc channel opens to the surface of the column as a groove. A number of pairs of anchor slots are shaped on both sides of the groove, and the anchor slots of the same pair are at the same height. Mounting parts for snapping into the anchor slots are shaped on both sides of the connecting beam. Half T-shaped jointing heads are provided on the outer ends of said mounting pans for connecting to the arc channel, and said jointing heads are either in the shape of a column head matching the arc channel, or in the shape of a hook head. A frame structure assembled by the connecting parts is further disclosed.

A modular structural support system, comprising: a plurality of vertically disposed frame support beams, a plurality of horizontally disposed frame support beams, a plurality of fastener devices, fastener devices rigidly connected to the ends of the horizontally disposed support beams and rotatably and selectively lockingly attachable to one of the vertically disposed support beams.

A shelf includes a main body with a plurality of support features formed therein. In one embodiment, each of the support features formed in the main body may include a board having an overmolded exterior. The board may have a plurality of apertures formed therethrough. The overmolded exterior extends through the apertures formed in the board. In another embodiment, each of the support features includes a removable board in an elongate recess that is secured in place by a cover. The boards may be wooden and add a desired strength and rigidity to the main body.

A storage unit comprising a frame portion and a liner portion. The frame portion is comprised of vertical supports that engage and support the liner portion. The liner portion included a backer portion. The liner portion also comprises angled shelving components that extend from the front and back of the liner portion, with the shelving components attaching to the backer portion and the frame.

A rack has a frame and a plurality of shelves. Each shelf has an enclosing frame member that has two first sides connected by two second sides, a connecting bar that connects the first sides at about the center of the first sides, a plurality of slots provided on the inner surfaces of the second sides, and a plurality of slats, each slat having opposing ends that are fitted into opposing slots at the second sides, and with each slat being connected to the connecting bar. At least one connector is provided for removably connecting each shelf to a portion of the frame.
