As shown in (2), a pair of thin rectangular prisms are attached so as to be symmetrical at predetermined intervals. This is because, when a force is applied in the front-rear direction of the column 2 due to an earthquake or the like, the force is transmitted to the front or rear column 2 uniformly through the reinforcing members 21a and 21b in the right and left direction. Can be prevented from being twisted. Further, by arranging the reinforcing members 21a and 21b obliquely so as to form a truss shape, the strength between the front and rear columns 2 can be increased as compared with the case where the reinforcing members 21a and 21b are arranged horizontally.

Further, the width of the reinforcing member 21a and the width of the reinforcing member 21b is always smaller than the width of the column 2. For this reason, even if the reinforcing members 21a and 21b are arranged between the front and rear struts 2 where no dead space is generated so as not to protrude in the left-right direction from the width of the strut 2, the vertical pipe 4 is disposed between the left and right reinforcing members 21a and 21b. Can be provided. As a result, the vertical pipe 4 can be arranged so that dead space does not occur while increasing the strength between the front and rear columns 2.

Further, in the rack 1 of the present embodiment, a connecting member 2 for connecting the left and right reinforcing members 21a and 21b is provided.
