  • 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.

  • Publication number: 20090145869
    Abstract: A gravity feed shelving system is provided in which specially configured tiers contain necked-down channels for the receiving, storing and dispensing of series of flexible packages such as flex bags. Each channel is configured with relatively wide receiving and dispensing portions at the rear and front of the tier, respectively, and a narrowed intermediate portion that partially compresses the flex bags and restrains them against their removal from the channel until the flex bag passes from the intermediate portion into the dispensing portion. The tier has an operatively sloped orientation so that, once placed within the receiving portion of the channel, each flex bag is urged along the channel and into the intermediate portion by the force of its own weight.
