Abstract

An auxiliary bracing structure for movable racks includes a case, a lid and a movable rack. The lid corresponds to the case and may be coupled with the case to form substantially a closed housing compartment. The lid has a bracing strut mounted on an inner side. The movable rack is located in the housing compartment and has a slot corresponding to the bracing strut. The slot has a loading end with a diameter greater than the diameter of an anchor end of the slot. The bracing strut may run through the slot through the loading end and be moved to the anchor end for anchoring thereby to anchor the movable rack on the lid.
