Abstract
A modular shelving system includes at least two elongate U-shaped members, wherein each of the elongate U-shaped members includes: an elongate body member; and first and second parallel elongate leg members extending transversely in the same direction away from opposing ends of the elongate body member with space between the first and second parallel leg members, wherein the length A of the elongate U-shaped member is equal to twice the height B of the first side of the elongate U-shaped member, plus twice the height C of the second side of the elongate U-shaped member, such that A=2B+2C.

A modular shelving system comprising at least two U-shaped members, wherein each of the U-shaped members comprises an elongate U-shaped member comprising:
- an elongate body member;
- and
- (ii) first and second parallel elongate leg members extending transversely away from the elongate body member, the first and second parallel elongate leg members extending in the same direction away from opposing ends of the elongate body member with space between the first and second parallel elongate leg members, the elongate U-shaped member having a length A, a first side having a height B, and a second side having a height C, wherein the length A of the elongate U-shaped member is equal to twice the height B of the first side of the elongate U-shaped member plus twice the height C of the second side of the elongate U-shaped member, such that A=2B+2C.
A modular shelving system comprising at least two U-shaped members having the same design, wherein each of the U-shaped members comprises an elongate U-shaped member comprising:
- (i) an elongate body member;
- and
- (ii) first and second parallel elongate leg members extending transversely away from the elongate body member, the first and second parallel elongate leg members extending in the same direction away from opposing ends of the elongate body member with space between the first and second parallel elongate leg members, the elongate U-shaped member having a length A, a first side having a height B, and a second side having a height C, wherein the length A of the elongate U-shaped member is substantially equal to twice the height B of the first side of the elongate U-shaped member plus twice the height C of the second side of the elongate U-shaped member, such that A is substantially equal to 2B+2C.
A modular shelving assembly comprising at least three U-shaped members having the same design and size, wherein each of the U-shaped members comprises an elongate U-shaped member comprising:
- (i) an elongate body member;
- and
- (ii) first and second parallel elongate leg members extending transversely away from the elongate body member, the first and second parallel elongate leg members extending in the same direction away from opposing ends of the elongate body member with space between the first and second parallel elongate leg members, the elongate U-shaped member having a length A, a first side having a height B, and a second side having a height C, wherein the length A of the elongate U-shaped member is equal to twice the height B of the first side of the elongate U-shaped member plus twice the height C of the second side of the elongate U-shaped member, such that A=2B+2C.
A method for forming a modular shelving system, the method comprising:
- (i) providing at least two U-shaped members having the same design and size, wherein each of the U-shaped members comprises an elongate U-shaped member comprising:
- a. an elongate body member;
- and
- b. first and second parallel elongate leg members extending transversely away from the elongate body member, the first and second parallel elongate leg members extending in the same direction away from opposing ends of the elongate body member with space between the first and second parallel elongate leg members, the elongate U-shaped member having a length A, a first side having a height B, and a second side having a height C, wherein the length A of the elongate U-shaped member is substantially equal to twice the height B of the first side of the elongate U-shaped member plus twice the height C of the second side of the elongate U-shaped member, such that A is substantially equal to 2B+2C;
- and
- (ii) coupling the at least two elongate U-shaped members to each other.
A modular shelving assembly comprising at least four U-shaped members, wherein each of the U-shaped members has the same design and the same size, and wherein each of the U-shaped members comprises an elongate U-shaped member comprising:
- (i) an elongate body member;
- and
- (ii) first and second parallel elongate leg members extending transversely away from the elongate body member, the first and second parallel elongate leg members extending in the same direction away from opposing ends of the elongate body member with space between the first and second parallel elongate leg members, the elongate U-shaped member having a length A, a first side having a height B, and a second side having a height C, wherein the length A of the elongate U-shaped member is equal to twice the height B of the first side of the elongate U-shaped member plus twice the height C of the second side of the elongate U-shaped member, such that A=2B+2C.
