ABSTRACT:
A rack system including a support having multiple longitudinally spaced slots for connecting at least one generally Z-shaped shelf, or any suitable shape. The shelf has a front leg and a back leg interconnected by a support position. The front leg may, for example, provide an upstanding lip. The support portion may be referred to as a median support portion between the front leg and the back leg of the generally Z-shaped shelf. The back leg includes a first transverse element disposed adjacent to the support position, and a second transverse element disposed at a distal end of the back leg, such that the first and second transverse elements engaged adjacent slots in order to connect the shelves to the support. The shelf may be connected to the support having the plurality of longitudinally spaced slots by inserting the generally Z-shaped shelf in order to connect the shelf to the support.
