Mobile industrial rack system

摘要

A mobile industrial rack system which includes a flue spacer, a carriage spacer, and a synchronous motor control that individually and collectively allows the rack system to be used on unleveled surfaces. The industrial rack system is therefore well suited for storage facilities in which it is not possible or not desired to level an otherwise unleveled floor.

1. A mobile rack system comprising:
a first rack mounted to and extending above a first mobile carriage for movement on a floor; a second rack mounted to and extending above a second mobile carriage for movement on the floor, wherein the first and second mobile carriages each include wheel structure engaging the floor and supporting the first rack and the second racks for rolling movement on and along the floor; a carriage spacer interconnecting the first mobile carriage and the second mobile carriage such that the first mobile carriage and the second mobile carriage move together along, the floor, wherein the carriage spacer allows the carriages to move vertically relative to one another when the first and second racks are translated along the floor; and a flue spacer having interfitting members adjustably interconnecting the first rack and the second rack independent from the connection between the first and second mobile carriages, and enabling the first rack and the second rack to move in both a lateral direction and a vertical direction relative to another when the wheel structure of the mobile carriages move on and along portions of the floor that are not level.
