Modular storage system for barrels

A modular storage system for barrels, comprising:

• a plurality of modules, each module having a plurality of vertical post assemblies, each vertical post assembly having a bottom plate, the bottom plate having a first, second, and third post attached thereto and extending upward therefrom, the first, second, and third post being in a parallel relationship, the first and third posts being outer posts, the first, second, and third posts each having a pair of channels therein located from the top of each post extending downward, the channels located on opposite sides of each post, the channels in the first, second, and third posts being in alignment such that the channel in one post and the channel in another post which channels face each other receive the ends of a portal therein;
• the plurality of vertical post assemblies being spaced apart with their bottom plates in a parallel relationship with at least one post of each vertical post assembly having at least one dunnage member secured thereto, thereby securing the parallel relationship of the plurality of vertical post assemblies and thereby forming a module, the at least one dunnage member comprises at least one set of dunnage members, each set including one dunnage member secured to the outside of the first post of each of the plurality of vertical post assemblies facing away from the second and third posts, another dunnage member secured to the inside of the second post of the plurality of vertical post assemblies facing toward the third post, and another dunnage member secured to the inside of the third post of the plurality of vertical post assemblies facing toward the second post, the set of dunnage members being at the same height above the bottom plates, the bottom plates of each of the plurality of vertical post assemblies being spaced an equal distance apart and having walk boards therealong between the first and second posts.

A modular storage system for barrels, comprising:

• a plurality of modules, each module having a plurality of vertical post assemblies, each vertical post assembly having a bottom plate, the bottom plate having a first, second, third, and fourth post attached thereto and extending upward therefrom, the first, second, third, and fourth posts being in a parallel relationship, the first and fourth posts being outer posts, the first, second, third, and fourth posts each having a pair of channels therein located from the top of each post extending downward, the channels located on opposite sides of each post, the channels in the first, second, third, and fourth posts being in alignment such that the channel in one post and the channel in another post which channels face each other receive the ends of a portal herein;
• the plurality of vertical post assemblies being spaced apart with their bottom plates in a parallel relationship with at least one post of each vertical post assembly having at least one dunnage member secured thereto, thereby securing the parallel relationship of the plurality of vertical post assemblies and thereby forming a module, the at least one dunnage member comprises at least one set of dunnage members, each set including one dunnage member secured to the outside of the first post of each of the plurality of vertical post assemblies facing away from the second, third, and fourth posts, another dunnage member secured to the inside of the second post of the plurality of vertical post assemblies facing toward the third post, another dunnage member secured to the inside of the third post of the plurality of vertical post assemblies facing toward the second post, and another dunnage member secured to the outside of the fourth post of the plurality of vertical post assemblies facing away from the first, second, and third posts, the set of dunnage members being at the same height above the bottom plates, the bottom plates of each of the plurality of vertical post assemblies being spaced an equal distance apart and having walk boards extending therealong between the first and second posts and the third and fourth posts.
