A RACKABLE PANEL ASSEMBLY AND METHODS OF ASSEMBLY THEREOF
A rackable panel assembly is provided. In one form, the assembly includes a plurality of vertical members each having a pair of opposed ends and at least one sidewall extending longitudinally therebetween and having a rail engagement opening defined therein; and at least one rail having a pair of opposed ends and at least sidewall extending longitudinally therebetween, said at least one sidewall defining sets of opposed openings spaced along a longitudinal length of the at least one rail, each set of opposed openings adapted to receive a vertical member of said plurality of vertical members therethrough and at least partially cover the rail engagement opening of said vertical member. The assembly further includes at least one coupling member adapted to be at least partially received in each said vertical member for pivotally coupling the vertical member to the at least one rail, said coupling member having at least one protruding portion and a biasing member for biasing the at least one protruding portion outwardly from the rail engagement opening in a direction perpendicular to the length of the at least one rail to pivotally couple the vertical member to the at least one rail.
