Storage rack

Abstract

A storage rack includes a base, a pair of spaced-apart front upright posts mounted on the base, a pair of substantially parallel plate members, and a rear upright post mounted on the base. Each of the plate members is mounted on at least one of the front upright posts, and is provided with a second engaging member to engage a first engaging member of a respective front upright post. The plate members include confronting longitudinal first faces, and a plurality of spaced-apart transverse ribs which are aligned along directions transverse to the longitudinal first faces for holding a plurality of discs. The rear upright post prevents the discs from being inadvertently released from the ribs.

1 . A storage rack comprising: 
 a base;    a pair of spaced-apart front upright posts mounted on said base, each of said front upright posts having a first engaging member;    a pair of substantially parallel plate members, each of which is mounted on at least one of said front upright posts and is provided with a second engaging member to engage said first engaging member, said plate members including confronting longitudinal first faces, and a plurality of spaced-apart transverse ribs which project from said longitudinal first faces in opposite directions and which are aligned along directions transverse to said longitudinal first faces, said ribs of one of said plate members cooperating with said ribs of the other one of said plate members so as to be adapted to hold a plurality of discs; and    a rear upright post mounted on said base and adapted to prevent the discs from being released from said ribs.    
   
   
       2 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said plate members are substantially vertical and are mounted respectively on said front upright posts.  
   
   
       3 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein each of said plate members further includes a longitudinal second face opposite to the corresponding said first face, said second engaging member being formed on said second face, each of said front upright posts having an abutment face that faces and that abuts against said second face, said first engaging member being formed on said abutment face.  
   
   
       4 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said plate members are substantially horizontal, each of said plate members having two longitudinally opposed end faces respectively attached to said front upright posts, one of said plate members being disposed above the other one of said plate members.  
   
   
       5 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein each of said end faces has said second engaging member, each of said front upright posts having an abutment face that faces and that abuts against one of said end faces, said first engaging member being formed on said abutment face.  
   
   
       6 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein one of said first and second engaging members is a slot, and the other one of said first and second engaging members is a stud engageable releasably with said slot.  
   
   
       7 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of vertically spaced-apart blocking members disposed on said rear upright post.  
   
   
       8 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein each of said blocking members is formed as an elongated rod, said rear upright post being formed with a plurality of through holes, said elongated rods extending through said through holes, respectively.  
   
   
       9 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein each of said blocking members includes a blocking arm, and a rotatable knob extending through said rear upright post and into said blocking arm so as to rotate said blocking arm between a first position, where said blocking arm is parallel to said rear upright post, and a second position, where said blocking arm is perpendicular to said rear upright post.  
   
   
       10 . The storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a pair of parallel connecting members which interconnect said parallel plate members to form a four-sided frame.
