Abstract

A combination storage rack includes a plurality of upright supports each formed of a plurality of bamboo rods equiangularly arranged around the periphery and a plurality of spacer blocks fixedly mounted in the bamboo rods at different elevations to keep the bamboo rods apart from one another, a plurality of tapered locating members respectively fastened to the upright supports and supported on the spacer blocks, and a plurality of rack panels that have tapered through holes for the passing of the upright supports and for engagement with the tapered locating blocks.

1 . A combination storage rack comprising:
 a plurality of upright supports, each said upright support comprising a plurality of bamboo rods equiangularly arranged around the periphery and a plurality of spacer blocks fixedly mounted in said bamboo rods at different elevations to keep said bamboo rods apart from one another;   a plurality of tapered locating members respectively fastened to said upright supports and supported on said spacer blocks; and   a plurality of rack panels horizontally fastened to said tapered locating blocks and said upright supports at different elevations, each said rack panel comprising a plurality of tapered through holes cut through top and bottom sides thereof for the passing of said upright supports and for engagement with said tapered locating blocks.   
   
   
       2 . The combination storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each said upright support comprises four rectangular bamboo rods arranged in four corners in a parallel manner; said spacer blocks are fixedly mounted in the bamboo rods such that the cross section of each said upright support at each said spacer block shows a substantially   shaped configuration; said tapered locating blocks are shaped like a truncated cone, each formed of two symmetrical halves, each half of each said tapered locating block comprising two vertical mounting grooves adapted for receiving two bamboo rods of one said upright support, and a mounting rib defined between said two vertical mounting grooves and adapted for engaging into the space between the two bamboo rods that are engaged into the two vertical mounting grooves of one said tapered locating block. 
   
   
       3 . The combination storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each said spacer block comprises a plurality of vertical mounting grooves equiangularly spaced around the periphery thereof; the bamboo rods of each said upright support are respectively fastened to the vertical mounting grooves of the spacer blocks of the respective upright support and kept in flush with the periphery of the associating spacer blocks; each said tapered locating block is formed of two symmetrical halves that fit over the periphery of the associating upright support, each half of each said tapered locating block comprising at least one mounting rib protruded from an inside wall thereof and fitted in the gap between two bamboo rods of the associating upright support.
