  • FIG. 8C and FIG. 8D show storage rack 2 and storage rack 2' each formed by combining one first- type storage unit 10 and one second-type storage unit 10'.
  • the storage unit 10 and the storage unit 10' are independent units, they can be arranged at a comer.
  • First side walls 1213, 1213' of storage bodies 12, 12' of the two storage units 10, 10' can together form a plane at a convex comer (as shown in FIG. 8C), thereby preventing a passerby from bumping into the protmding sharp comer. Further, first side walls 1213, 1213' of storage bodies 12, 12' of the two storage units 10, 10' can together form a substantially seamless comer at a concave comer, achieving both practicality and aesthetics for the storage rack 2 and the storage rack 2'.
  • the storage unit in the present disclosure may include a support structure and a storage body, and is selectively arranged on a surface by means of a back plate, where various members can be detachably assembled relative to each other. Therefore, it can be understood that when part of them is damaged and needs to be replaced, only the damaged part needs to be replaced without discarding the entire set of storage unit. Further, since the additional structure of the support structure of the storage unit in the present disclosure is disposed on one side of the supporting rib, and when the configuration of the storage body needs to be changed, since the storage body is detachable from the support structure, the support structure does not need to be changed, so that the additional structure can retain the original function.
  • the support structure and the back plate in the present disclosure can be applied to different forms of storage bodies, and each storage body can also be assembled relative to the support structure at a first position (upright) or second position (upside down), a user can provide two different structures by variation with a single storage unit according to needs or obtain various different forms of storage racks by combining a plurality of storage units. Further, since the storage units described in the present disclosure are independent of each other, they can be arranged at a comer as a comer rack.
  • the storage rack can have a flat surface at a convex comer upon arrangement at the comer (as shown in FIG. 8C), so as to avoid bumps to a user.
  • the two storage units can closely fit each other without any gap upon arrangement at a concave comer, all of which are not conventional technical solutions in the art.
