A battery rack system for stationary power applications is provided. The rack systems includes a rack assembly configured so as to be seismically rated for UBC Zone IV requirements. The rack assembly has a plurality of shelves which are supported by a rack frame such that each shelf along with the rack frame defines a respective cell-receiving area having a front opening. Each shelf has at least one associated cell restraint that is removably connected to the rack assembly. The restraint spans across the front opening to the respective cell-receiving area so as to restrain movement of a cell arranged therein. The system includes at least one channel disposed within the footprint of the rack frame which extends so as to provide a passage between adjacent cell-receiving areas for accommodating wires used to couple cells stored in the rack system together.

A stackable tabletop includes a tabletop member having a top surface defining a peripheral edge portion and a first contour formed therealong and a bottom surface adapted for pivotally connecting two leg assemblies thereon, and an engaging rim, which is provided along a peripheral edge portion of the bottom surface of the tabletop member, defining a second contour formed therealong, wherein the second contour of the engaging rim has a size and shape geometrically matching with the first contour of the top surface. Therefore, the stackable tabletop is adapted to overlappedly stack on another stackable tabletop by engaging the second contour of the engaging rim of the stackable tabletop with the first contour of the top surface of the another stackable tabletop so as to substantially retain the two stackable tabletops in position and avoid a lateral relative movement between the stackable tabletop and the another stackable tabletop.

A system for supporting the non-driven wheel of a bicycle, in which the driven wheel of the bicycle is engaged with a stationary bicycle trainer. The system contemplates a support member that is configured for engagement with a supporting surface, and which includes wheel engagement structure for supporting the non-driven wheel above the supporting surface. A pair of support members are engaged together in different orientations, to raise the elevation of the wheel engagement structure of the upper support member above the supporting surface and to enable the user to adjust the angle of the bicycle.

A stackable shipping pod adapted for use on a relatively large object having a bottom surface with a plurality of bores therein, each bore for receiving a threaded member, and further having an outside perimeter. The shipping pod includes a top wall which mates to the bottom surface of the large object and has an opening through which the threaded member is extended. Also included is a perimeter wall which extends downwardly and outwardly from the top wall, and has an exterior surface facing away from the top wall and an interior surface facing inward, such that the interior surface of the shipping pod nests proximate to the exterior surface of a second subjacent shipping pod when in a stacked orientation.

A shipping pallet that has a load bearing deck with a plurality of domes that provide high strength, stiffness, and rigidity to the deck, and an undercarriage for supporting the deck and for receiving a forklift, palletjack, hand truck, or other automated machinery. Each dome is defined by an apex located proximate to the upper surface of the deck and a plurality of legs extending from the apex and ending at the lower surface of the deck. The domes are arranged adjacent to each other and define an array such that a load applied to the upper surface of the deck, substantially on the apex of the domes, will cause the applied forces from the load to be transmitted substantially laterally along the legs of the arches thereby producing intersecting compressive forces between adjacent domes that enable the load bearing deck to have high strength, stiffness, and rigidity.
