Abstract
A shelving system comprises four corner columns, a plurality of substantially horizontal support beams, and a plurality of beam braces. Each of the support beams extends between two of the four corner columns, and each support beam is paired with a corresponding second support beam to form pairs of support beams. Each of the beam braces extends between the support beams of one of the pairs of support beams and comprises a first end portion, a second end portion, and a middle portion. The first and second end portions comprise substantially planar faces. The middle portion is between the first end portion and the second end portion and comprises first and second edges, wherein the first end portion and the second end portion extend away from the first and second edges, respectively, in opposite directions.
Claims14
A shelving system comprising:
- four corner columns, each of the corner columns comprising:
- two opposed column walls, each of the column walls comprising a first column edge;
- and
- a central portion extending between the first column edges of the column walls, wherein the central portion comprises:
- a first angled surface extending from a first one of the column walls;
- a second angled surface extending from a second one of the column walls;
- and
- a plurality of slots arranged along the first and second angled surfaces;
- wherein the first and second angled surfaces are angled with respect to each other;
- a plurality of substantially horizontal support beams, each of the support beams extending between two of the four corner columns, wherein each of the support beams is paired with a corresponding second support beam to form pairs of support beams;
- and
- a plurality of beam braces, each of the beam braces extending between the support beams of one of the pairs of support beams.
A shelving system comprising:
- four corner columns, each of the corner columns comprising:
- first and second angled column walls, wherein each of the first and second angled column walls comprise first and second column edges, and wherein the first and second angled column walls meet at an angle along their respective first column edges;
- a plurality of slots arranged along the first and second angled column walls;
- and
- column flanges extending from the second column edges of the first and second angled column walls;
- a plurality of substantially horizontal support beams, each of the support beams extending between two of the four corner columns, wherein each of the support beams is paired with a corresponding second support beam to form pairs of support beams;
- and
- a plurality of beam braces, each of the beam braces extending between the support beams of one of the pairs of support beams.
A shelving system comprising:
- four corner columns, each of the corner columns comprising:
- first and second angled column walls, wherein each of the first and second angled column walls comprise first and second column edges;
- a central wall extending between the first and second angled column walls along their respective first column edges;
- a plurality of slots arranged along the first and second angled column walls;
- and
- column flanges extending from the second column edges of the first and second angled column walls;
- a plurality of substantially horizontal support beams, each of the support beams extending between two of the four corner columns, wherein each of the support beams is paired with a corresponding second support beam to form pairs of support beams;
- and
- a plurality of beam braces, each of the beam braces extending between the support beams of one of the pairs of support beams.
