  • Patent number: 9131622
    Abstract: A locking lever for a removable rack rail includes a base plate, a body plate mounted to the base plate so as to be pivotable about a pivot point between a first position and a second position with respect to the base plate, a tang extending in a lateral direction from the body plate, and a finger tab extending from the body plate for actuating the body plate to pivot about the pivot point with respect to the base plate, wherein when the body plate is in the second position the tang is at least partially recessed so that an end portion of the locking lever can fit in a slot on a mounting rail, and wherein when the body plate is in the first position the tang extends laterally beyond the lateral edge of the base plate so that the end portion cannot be removed from the slot.

  • Publication number: 20120292278
    Abstract: A rack assembly includes a base frame having a base member, a lateral brace along a first edge of the base member, and a vertical stub extending upward from a corner of the base member, the vertical stub including first and second stub walls oriented substantially perpendicularly to each other; a side frame including a generally U-shaped vertical bracket; and a generally U-shaped gusset having an upper portion and a lower portion in which the one gusset wall is substantially parallel to and offset with respect to the upper portion. The upper portion of the gusset is attached to the vertical bracket so as to form a first gap between the one gusset wall and a corresponding vertical bracket wall, and a second gap is formed between another bracket wall and the lower portion of the corresponding gusset wall, the gaps being adapted to receive the vertical stub walls.
