ABSTRACT:
An in-depth storage device where fixed shelves are supported on a plurality of vertical uprights and a sliding shelf is used in conjunction with each of the fixed shelves to provide in-depth storage space. The sliding shelves may be moved either manually or by powered mechanical means horizontally so as to align the leading edge of the sliding shelves with the leading edge of the fixed shelves. The track means upon which the sliding shelf is movable consists of a pair of channel beam members forming a simple beam connection between the fixed shelf members. Each channel beam carries a plurality of rollers which are mounted to the vertical flange of the channel beam within the channel portion of said beam. The sliding shelves are supported by an I beam, the lower flange of which engages the rollers which are mounted within the channel beams. Roller means is also provided within the channel beam members for articulation with the vertical flange of the I-beam supporting the sliding shelves thereby providing lateral stability therefor. The sliding shelves are spaced directly above the fixed shelves and when the sliding shelf and fixed shelf are aligned, the sliding shelf may be loaded with merchandise and then moved horizontally and rearwardly so as to expose the fixed shelf which is then loaded with merchandise.
