Abstract
A modular shelving assembly has at least three spaced poles, each having a connector, a first post unit and a second post unit. Each post unit has first and second opposing ends, with a first protrusion extending radially inwardly from the hollow interior surface of the first post unit adjacent the first end thereof, and a second protrusion extending radially inwardly from the hollow interior surface of the second post unit adjacent the second end thereof. Each connector has first and second opposing ends, a first track provided adjacent the first end of the connector and a second track provided adjacent the second end of the connector. Each of the first and second tracks has a leg portion extending from one of the first or second end of the connector, and a foot extending from the leg portion. The first protrusion of each first post unit is retained in the foot of the first track of each connector, and the second protrusion of each second post unit is retained in the foot of the second track of each connector, when the first and second post units are connected to a connector.
