Clip for anchoring cross members in telescoping shelf supports

摘要

A clip for telescoping shelf supports for use in anchoring shelving, such as in forming a metallic shelf framework, providing means for erecting and maintaining shelf supports without the use of screws or bolts. A base member is anchored to the outer wall of a male section of the framework, as by welding, and an anchor member is mounted on the frame at a point where the cross member is to be mounted, and is held in place by means of a tension plate, which engages the anchor member and on which are formed outwardly extending lips which receive the side margins of the base member mounted on the cross bar. The frame is composed of telescoping male and female sections having spring loaded stops adapted to extend upwardly through spaced openings in the other and adjoining member.
