Abstract: A planar cross brace for stiffening a tabletop of a fold-in-half collapsible table includes an elongate rectangular planar portion having elongate opposing side edges and narrow opposing end edges that are perpendicular to the side edges. A pair of opposing tabs extend from the opposing end edges in a direction perpendicular to the rectangular planar portion. A pair of opposing ribs extend from the opposing side edges in a direction perpendicular to the rectangular planar portion, thereby forming an elongate channel having a U-shaped cross section. The planar cross brace stiffens the inner edge of the tabletop portion to which it is attached, and the stiffening is independent of any connection to the inner edge of the other tabletop portion. This eliminates any need for interlocking features on the inner edges of the tabletop portions, such as those required by prior art tables.

A centrally positioned support having a first end pivotably mounted to a lower surface of the base provides a three-point support. Legs are provided if the base is to be used on flat table as an angled work surface.

Abstract: A foldable frame includes a table frame, one or more bench frames, and first and second leg assemblies to support the table and bench frames. Each of the first and second leg assemblies include one or more table legs and one or more bench legs generally shorter than the one or more table legs. The foldable frame also includes a plurality of linking assemblies to connect the bench legs to the one or more bench frames so that each of the first and second leg assemblies can be rotated as a single unit. When unfolded, the table and bench frames are placed at different heights. When folded, the table and bench frames are placed at a common plane with the first and second leg assemblies folded onto the common plane. The foldable frame is easy to use and convenient for transportation and storage.

Abstract: A support module for a platform comprises a body and a lower surface. The body defines an opening configured to receive a pallet support. The lower surface is configured to abut a top deck of the platform.

Abstract: In a device (1) for holding objects (2) consisting of: a plate-shaped support frame (4) in which a plurality of accommodation openings (5) are incorporated, and a cage (6) suitable for accommodating the respective objects (2), which cage (6) has four side walls (71 to 74) extending perpendicular to one another and a base (8) arranged between them, the cage (6) should be able to be connected to the support frame (4) as quickly as possible and at the same time a reliable and permanent operative connection between the cage (6) and the support frame (4) should be achieved.

Abstract: A combination stand assembly is provided. The assembly includes a dual-use stand adapted to provide a floor stand and/or a bed top stand. The combination stand includes a floor base configured with a telescoping upright support structure and a top tray. The top tray may be used to support various items such as, but not limited to, a laptop computer. The top tray is removable from the upright support structure and includes extendable legs so that the tray, when separated from the upright support, may be used as a self-contained secondary stand (e.g., for use as a bed top stand). In this way, the combination stand may be configured for use as a floor stand and/or for use as a bed top stand. The angle of the tray is adjustable in either configuration for ergonomic positioning.

Abstract: A foldable table includes a supporting frame, tabletop and auxiliary support. The supporting frame includes first and second mounting assemblies pivotally connected to each other. The tabletop includes first and second panels coupled with the first and second mounting assemblies such that the first and second panels are rotatable with respect to each other between a folded position and an unfolded position. The auxiliary support includes an auxiliary bar and one or more linking assemblies. The auxiliary bar is coupled with the supporting frame, and each of one or more linking assemblies is coupled with the first and second panels. When the first and second panels are in the unfolded position, each of the one or more linking assemblies abuts the auxiliary bar toward the first and second panels. As such, the auxiliary support provides support to the first and second panels and enhances stability of the foldable table.

The data center includes a pallet interface coupled to or integrated into an exterior edge of the raised floor and vertically presented to abut and engage a lateral edge of a roll-off rack shock pallet that supports the RIHS during transport.

Abstract: A blow-molded unitary structure includes a panel having first and second panel walls and a generally hollow interior between the first and second panel walls. The structure also includes a plurality of depressions, or at least one ridge, or both the depressions and ridge to enhance the strength of the structure. The plurality of depressions is monolithically formed with the panel, recessing from the second panel wall toward the first panel wall. A depression has a side wall composed of first and second segments. Cross-sectional-wise, the first and second segments have different widths and thus collectively forms a step between the first and second segments. A ridge is also monolithically formed with the panel and includes a section, at which the width of the ridge varies along the height direction of the ridge.
