Patent ID: 7086543

Claim:
A shelving apparatus comprising a track and a shelf standard, the track including a support portion having an upper substantially horizontal planar support surface and a lower substantially horizontal planar surface vertically spaced from and connected to said upper substantially horizontal planar support surface by a connecting portion such that a spaced distance separates the upper and lower substantially horizontal planar support surfaces from each other, and an extension extending generally outwardly from the support portion, the shelf standard including a back surface having an opening, the opening including a portion that engagingly receives the extension of the support portion, and an upper substantially horizontal planar surface that contacts the upper substantially horizontal planar support surface of the support portion when the upper and lower substantially horizontal planar support surfaces of the support portion are at least partially within the opening, whereby engagement of the extension within the portion of the opening inhibits disengagement of the standard from the track; a bracket engageable with a front surface of the shelf standard, and a shelf supportable by the bracket; wherein the front surface of the shelf standard includes a plurality of apertures, and wherein the bracket is mountable to one or more of the apertures.
