An apparatus for collecting clothes is provided. The apparatus includes a bracket disposed perpendicularly to an installing surface and provided with one pair of guides, the one pair of guides protruding in front of the bracket from left and right ends of the bracket to have a vertical length, and trays horizontally coupled in front of the bracket as at least one layer to place arranged clothes on top surfaces of the trays, wherein each of the trays has left and right ends supported by the one pair of guides.

A combined storage shelf is provided, including column combinations, connection and combination fasteners, beam structures, and storage layers. The column combinations include assembly holes. A snap-fit portion of a first connection and combination fastener is snapped to an assembly hole, to fix the first connection and combination fastener to the column combination. The engagement structure of the second connection and combination fastener corresponds to the engagement structure of the first connection and combination fastener, so that the first connection and combination fastener and the second connection and combination fastener are assembled together.

A disengageable connection includes a back portion, a front portion, a handle portion, and a clutch plate portion, the back portion and the front portion are configured to removably secure a tube using the clutch plate portion and the handle portion.

A shelving system has a plurality of support posts and one or more shelf assemblies, each shelf assembly having a height adjustment mechanism. A height adjustment mechanism can include a bracket attached to a shelf portion, wherein the bracket includes a channel for receiving a support post, and a latch element pivotably attached to the bracket. The latch element pivots between a first position in which the latch element engages an aperture in the support post to support the shelf assembly on the support post, and a second position in which the latch element is out of the aperture to allow the shelf assembly to move along the support post. The latch element can include a hook with a notch positionable to receive an edge of the aperture, and a side face positionable to rest or press against the support post.

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.

Provided are reinforced shelves, kits for reinforced shelves and shelving units comprising at least one reinforced shelf.

An adjustable bathroom handrail assembly is provided with a pair of elongate vertical handles with mounting hardware to mount to an upright support surface and spaced apart from the upright support surface. An adjustable horizontal bar extends between the pair of vertical handles, and a locking mechanism connects the at least one adjustable horizontal bar and one of the pair of elongate vertical handles. A locking mechanism is located at an intersection of the horizontal bar and the one of the elongate vertical handles. A method for installing and adjusting wall-mount hardware installs a pair of elongate vertical handles to an upright support surface. The ends of a horizontal bar are installed onto the pair of elongate vertical handles. A locking mechanism on the horizontal bar is disengaged to adjust the horizontal bar to a location along the pair of elongate vertical handles.

A flexible shelving unit includes a support frame having at least one vertical guide rack, the guide rack including an elongated slot. The shelf unit is supported by the guide rack. The shelf unit includes a shelf plate framed by a front reinforcement portion and by at least one side reinforcement portion. The shelf unit when in a release position is moved to selected upward and downward locations by vertical displacement of at least one locating pin connected to and extending from the at least one side reinforcement portion which is positioned and sliding within the elongated slot. A flat end face of the at least one side reinforcement portion directly contacts a plate face of the at least one vertical guide rack with the at least one side reinforcement portion and the shelf plate in a horizontal position to frictionally retain the shelf unit in the horizontal position.

A shelving system (10) comprising a plurality of tubular posts (12) and a plurality of rail segments (72) securable parallel to the posts (14). Each of the rail segments (72) comprises an elongate member having a U-shaped cross section such that the rail segment includes a central wall (74) and first and second side walls (76, 77) such that the posts (12) are received between the first and second side walls (76, 77) and wherein the rail segments (72) include apertures (46) along the lengths thereof to receive tracks (48) for supporting drawers (51).
