Abstract:
A frame device for supporting objects such as batteries and the like during seismic stress comprising two vertical frame members formed in a G shaped cross section. The frame has an inside face facing the other of the pair, a front face extending perpendicularly to an outside face. A back face extends from the inside face for part of the distance to the outside face. It also includes a top horizontal cross member formed in a C shaped cross section and having horizontally extending tab portions at each terminal end. The inside faces of horizontal members have slots passing one end of the top cross member through each inside face. The outside faces of the horizontal members have notches to receive the tabs of the top cross member to attach it to the vertical frame member. A bottom horizontal cross member is formed in a C shaped cross section, having a bottom face across the width of the top cross member with its bottom face having a slot and groove proximate each terminal end. The vertical members have tabs at the lower terminal of the faces for engaging the slot and groove on the bottom face.
