Abstract: A shelf which includes a shelf body with downturned flanges along its longitudinal edges and with end caps in each end of the shelf. The end caps have inturned top and bottom walls and inturned side edge flanges. The end caps top walls are spot welded to the shelf. The end caps have holes in the side edge flanges through which bolts pass as well as through holes in the shelf flanges providing for attachment of the shelving to uprights with increased shear strength resistance at the points of attachment.

Abstract: Front to back members having elongated main members with flanged end pieces being affixed thereto at each end. The front to back members are placed upon the shelf beam members of a rack. The shelf beam members are cradled between the flanged end pieces and the main members of the front to back member. Shelving members are placed upon the shelf beams between the front to back members. Support members span the shelf beams beneath the front to back and shelving members. The main members may be fixed together in a side by side relationship and attached between lengthened flanged end pieces to form an enlarged front to back member.

Abstract: An improved rack constraining apparatus especially adapted to alleviate vibration and rattle when a rack, such as an oven rack, is located in an unstable environment, such as an oven within a recreational vehicle. This device utilizes the outer body wires of the rack itself to bind the support rib between the body wire and the rack frame.
