  • Patent number: 9387954
    Abstract: A shelving base bracket is an apparatus that is used to support and transport shelving units. The apparatus includes a crossbar which is used as a structural link between a first L-shaped brace and a second L-shaped brace. The first L-shaped brace and the second L-shaped brace act as legs which support the weight of shelves mounted onto the shelving base bracket. The first L-shaped brace and the second L-shaped brace are both made of a proximal panel and a distal panel. The proximal panel and the distal panel meet at an angle allowing the shelving base bracket to be free-standing. The apparatus also includes a first support-receiving socket and a second support-receiving socket, which connect to the first L-shaped brace and the second L-shaped brace, respectively. The first support-receiving socket and the second support-receiving socket allow for vertical shelving supports to be mounted onto the shelving base bracket.
