ABSTRACT:
A flat shelf having truncated corners with a corner connector disposed against each truncated corner. The corner connectors tightly clamp onto corner support posts to retain the shelf in an elevated position. Each corner connector includes a brace member having a recess at its rear end for receiving one truncated corner, and a base wall within the recess for abutting against the truncated corner. A receiving pocket is provided at the front of the brace member for receiving the legs of a U-shaped clamp. The upper and lower walls of the brace member include aligned arcuate seats, which in conjunction with a bight portion of the clamp, define a sleeve which is tightenable around its associated corner support post. Bolts are inserted through the truncated corners to tighten the clamps around the corner support posts and securely retain the corner connectors against the truncated corners to thereby provide substantially closed crevice-free corner connectors.
