Abstract: A connector for connecting discrete modular storage units defined by plural hollow elongate support members having longitudinal ends including apertures into which vertical connection members can be inserted to connect adjacent modules. The inserts may be of a predetermined length to connect two horizontally adjacent modules or a length twice the predetermined length to connect two horizontally adjacent modules. For vertically and horizontally connected modules, the inventive connector may be utilized to connect modular shelving units having both an in-line and perpendicular configuration. The connector ideally comprises two identical insert members joined to each other in a desired orientation, so that the modules can be connected in different configurations, whether in-line, staggered or perpendicularly. The inventive connector also vertically connects the horizontally configured shelving modules to a variety of vertically disposed and configured shelving module units in a desired configuration.

Abstract: A collapsible workstation includes stationary top, pivotable leg and collapsible top subassemblies. A collapsible work surface is attached to the stationary top subassembly by a hinge allowing the collapsible work surface to pivot vertically downwardly, but only slightly upwardly from the horizontal. The moveable leg subassembly, comprising two movable front legs each with support cups for receiving an anterior support crossbar of the collapsible work surface, is attached to the two stationary back legs by moveable leg hinges, which allow the two moveable front legs to fold inwardly. Once the legs clear the stationary work surface, the collapsible work surface may fold downward, resulting in the workstation being in a closed position. A stop bracket may be provided attached to the stationary base to inhibit the movable legs from pivoting beyond the position where the crossbar remains engaged in the support cups.
