Benefits of technology

[0006]A primary object of the present invention is to provide a shelf to twin-post support assembling structure for sectional rack, so that shelves and twin-post supports of the sectional rack are firmly connected to one another to give the whole assembled sectional rack an increased structural strength.
[0007]Another object of the present invention is to provide a shelf to twin-post support assembling structure for sectional rack, so that crossed metal tension braces required in the conventional sectional rack can be now omitted from the back of the sectional rack with the shelf to twin-post support assembling structure according to the present invention, enabling the sectional rack to have a neat and aesthetic appearance.
[0009]To achieve the above and other objects, the shelf to twin-post support assembling structure for sectional rack according to the present invention includes a front and a rear transverse metal bar respectively connected to lower front and lower rear end of every shelf, and a movable bracket rotatably connected to each of two lateral ends of the front and rear transverse metal bars. Each of the movable brackets has an upper end connected to the transverse metal bar of the shelf and a lower end connected to the twin-post support of the side support frame. While the fastening connectors allow a user to primarily assemble the shelves to the two side support frames, the use of the movable brackets further increases the connection strength between the shelves and the side support frames, enabling the fully assembled sectional rack to have increased structural strength without wobbling under a sideward external force applied thereto.
[0011]In the shelf to twin-post support assembling structure for sectional rack according to the present invention, each of the movable brackets has an upper end rotatably fitted around one corresponding front or rear transverse metal bar, and a lower end formed into a U-shaped section to define a U-shaped engaging space therein. With the U-shaped engaging spaces at the lower ends of the movable brackets being correspondingly tightly engaged with the front and the rear posts of the side support frames, the movable brackets provide additional sideward supporting strength between the shelves and the side support frames to increase the overall structural strength of the fully assembled sectional rack.

Problems solved by technology

The above-structured sectional rack 1 has relatively low structural strength and tends to wobble sidewardly.
Thus, the whole sectional rack 1 still has poor structural strength and tends to wobble sidewardly when an external force is applied thereto.

Embodiment Construction

[0020]The present invention will now be described with some preferred embodiments thereof. For the purpose of easy to understand, elements that are the same in the preferred embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals.

[0021]Please refer to FIGS. 2, 3 and 4. A shelf to twin-post support assembling structure for sectional rack according to the present invention enables the assembling of a shelf 30 at four corners to two side support frames 20 to thereby form a sectional rack 2 for use. A fully assembled sectional rack 2 includes at least two side support frames 20, and at least two shelves 30. A first embodiment of the sectional rack 2 illustrated in FIG. 2 is assembled from two side support frames 20 and three shelves 30.

[0022]Each of the side support frames 20 includes a front twin-post support having two juxtaposed front posts 21, a rear twin-post support having two juxtaposed rear posts 22, and at least two (three are shown in the drawings) vertically spaced horizontal ...

Abstract

In a shelf to twin-post support assembling structure for sectional rack, the sectional rack includes at least two side support frames and at least two shelves, the shelves are provided at four corners with fastening connectors for engaging with front and rear twin-post supports of the side support frames, and the shelf to twin-post support assembling structure includes transverse metal bars connected to lower front and lower rear end of every shelf as well as a movable bracket rotatably connected to each of two lateral ends of the transverse metal bars. The movable brackets have upper ends connected to the transverse metal bars of the shelves and lower ends to the twin-post supports of the side support frames to provide a sideward support effect between the shelves and the side support frames, so that the sectional rack has increased structural strength without wobbling under a sideward external force applied thereto.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a shelf to twin-post support assembling structure for sectional rack, which mainly includes four additional movable brackets provided at four corners of every shelf of a sectional rack, and the movable brackets are connected at upper and lower ends to between the shelves and twin-post supports of the sectional rack to provide sideward supporting strength, enabling the assembled sectional rack to withstand increased sideward external force without wobbling.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Various types of organization products are provided in homes, offices or other working places for holding or positioning different articles and items. Such organization products can be generally divided into a fixed type that could not be easily disassembled and a sectional type that can be easily disassembled and assembled again. The sectional organization products have the advantages of easy to store and transport to thereby enable reduc...
