ABSTRACT:
A shelving unit wherein each corner of the shelf has a platelike bracket rigidly associated therewith. A corner structure coacts between each bracket and a respective corner post, which post is preferably of tubular cross section and has dimplelike recesses formed therein at selected vertically spaced intervals. The corner structure employs a strap which surrounds the post and creates intimate clamping contact with the post over approximately one-half of the external periphery thereof. This strap also preferably has interior projections which engage the dimples on the post. The corner structure also employs a corner piece which is stationarily secured to the bracket. The corner piece includes a downwardly cantilevered wedge having a front surface for engaging the periphery of the post over approximately one-half the extent thereof. The wedge vertically slidably engages within a wedgelike slot formed between the strap and the post to effect clamping of the post between the strap and corner piece.
