    摘要: A cross-brace is disclosed having an elongate rod portion and two claws, wherein a second grip-around portion of the claws can be moved relative to a first grip-around portion of the claws between an open position, in which a rod-form element is accommodated by the claws, or can be removed from the claws, and a closed position, in which the claws can grip around the rod-form element. The first and second grip-around portions are designed to grip around the rod-form element in the closed position in such a manner that a gap (S) remains between free ends of the first and second grip-around portions. Furthermore, the claws comprise an arresting mechanism, which is designed to keep the first and second grip-around portions in the closed position. A furniture-assembly kit having such a cross-brace is also disclosed.

    摘要: Furniture includes at least one part or piece. The at least one part contains at least one fastening device. The at least one fastening device enables the at least one part to be removed from the furniture. If multiple parts are removed from a piece of furniture, the furniture can be changed into a different form of furniture and also change into a different function and use. When at least two different furniture are disassembled, the parts removed from the different furniture can be combined or interchanged with the at least two different furniture to form a new piece of furniture that has the same or different size and has the same or different use.

    摘要: A crossmember is disclosed that includes an elongate rod portion and two latching claws. The rod portion has a central longitudinal axis, a first longitudinal end and a second longitudinal end substantially opposite the first longitudinal end. The first latching claw is arranged at the first longitudinal end of the rod portion and the second latching claw is arranged at the second longitudinal end of the rod portion. The first latching claw and the second latching claw each include a gripping portion shaped to correspond to a rod-shaped element and are designed to be mounted on the rod-shaped element without tools. The gripping portion of the first latching claw is offset from the gripping portion of the second latching claw with respect to the central longitudinal axis of the rod portion.

    摘要: A suspended storage rack includes a first rack body for suspending, and a second rack body hingedly connected to a lower side of the first rack body and used for storing articles. The second rack body includes: a storage part and a first limiting part arranged on one side of the storage part and tilted upward. A middle part of the first limiting part arranged in a vertical direction is hingedly connected to the lower side of the first rack body, an upper part of the first limiting part arranged in the vertical direction is used to prevent the second rack body from being excessively expanded relative to the first rack body, and a lower part of the first limiting part arranged in the vertical direction is used to make the storage part lean against the first rack body after the second rack body is rotated upward for storage.

    摘要: A shelf support beam (80, 130, 200) for use in a shelving unit (10) to support a shelf (22). A structural member (82, 132, 202) has a C-shaped cross-section. A web (94, 144, 216) separates a top flange (96, 146, 220) from a bottom flange (112, 162, 234). The top flange (96, 146, 220) is configured to support the shelf (22). The web (94, 144, 216), the top flange (96, 146, 220), and the bottom flange (112, 162, 234) define a channel (92, 142, 214) of the member (82, 132, 202). The channel (92, 142, 214) defines a cavity height (C1, D1, E1). The top flange (96, 146, 220) and the bottom flange (112, 162, 234) define a top flange width (C2, D2, E2) and a bottom flange width (C3, D3, E3), respectively. A ratio of the cavity height (C1, D1, E1) to a sum of the top flange width (C2, D2, E2) and the bottom flange width (C3, D3, E3) is greater than 1, is at least 1.20, or is about 1.40. The C-shaped cross-section has a moment of inertia (98, 148, 238) of greater than 0.40, greater than 0.45, or at least 0.46. The top flange (96, 146, 220) includes an elevated portion (100, 150, 222) and a lower or shelf support portion (104, 154, 226) separated by a sidewall (106, 156, 230).
