Benefits of technology

"The present invention is a structural rack that consists of at least two spaced end assemblies. Each end assembly has a shelf and a plurality of integrally formed, spaced studs. The rack also has a plurality of diagonal cross members that connect to the studs on the columns. The technical effect of this invention is a structural rack that provides stability and support for heavy loads, with a unique design that allows for efficient use of space."

Problems solved by technology

This is quite costly as each unit is heavy and large.
The problem with this scenario is that it requires the extensive use of in the field labor, which is generally more expensive.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a structural rack comprising at least two spaced end assemblies. The rack comprises at least one shelf positioned between and connected to each end assembly. In one aspect, each end assembly comprises a first and second spaced, substantially upright, elongate columns. The columns may be positioned such that the front face of the first elongate column is substantially facing the front face of the second elongate column. In one aspect, a plurality of integrally formed, spaced studs extends therefrom the front face of each of the columns. In another aspect, each end assembly comprises a plurality of diagonal cross members configured to connect to a stud on the first elongate column and to a stud on the second elongate column.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention pertains to bolt-together frame. In particular, it pertains to a bolt-together frame for racking systems used in warehouse shelving applications.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]In the material handling industry, it is necessary to pre-build racking systems for warehouses that are capable of holding pallets of materials. The racking systems generally comprise posts, reinforcement supports, and shelves. Generally, the posts and reinforcement supports are fabricated prior to shipment, while the shelves and supports for the shelves are attached in the field.[0003]In one example, the posts and reinforcement supports are welded together at the fabrication facility and then are shipped to the installation location. This is quite costly as each unit is heavy and large. An alternative to this scenario is to ship the posts and supports separately and fabricate them at the installation location. The problem with this scenario is that it requir...
