Abstract: A support unit is provided that can be stacked with a similar, second support unit and that permits stacking of different electronic components. The support unit has a vertical outer panel which has a lower horizontal edge. An inner panel is connected to the outer panel and includes first and second horizontal contact planes. The first contact plane abuts a bottom wall of a first one of a pair of stacked items. A flange extends from the inner panel. The flange has a top surface offset from the first and second horizontal contact planes by an equal distance. The flange mates with a substantially identical flange of a second, similar support unit such that the top surface of the flange abuts with a substantially identical top surface of the substantially identical flange, and the first contact plane is coplanar with the second contact plane of the similar, second support unit.

Abstract: A support unit includes an outer panel intended to lie in a vertical plane when in use, the outer panel having a straight, horizontal lower edge. The support unit further includes an inner panel extending generally at right angles to the outer panel and connected thereto along a portion of the lower edge of the outer panel which is adjacent one end of that edge. The inner panel has structure defining a first horizontal contact plane on the upper side of the inner panel, and a second horizontal contact plane on the lower side of the inner panel. These two planes are substantially parallel. The preferred embodiment further includes a flange adjacent the mid-region of the outer panel and extending generally parallel with the two contact planes. In the preferred embodiment, the flange is flat and has a top surface which contains a hypothetical line extending at right angles to the outer panel.
