There's a shelving slotting system that goes by either the name rivet rack or teardrop rack. I have a shelf that exposes them outward, and figured I could get some use from them by making utilities that interlock with them.

An interlocking platform was designed that vertically hooks into two keyholes for stability and features a plug that prevents the things from being accidentally lifted out. The plug is connected by a flat-ribbox flexure, which moves in a constrained way when the utilities are lifted up and down. But to be inserted/removed, they must be pushed inwards/outwards, which can only be done manually with intentional manipulation.
I'm not sure if there's a teardrop rack standard that all shelving systems comply with, but these are compatible with multiple shelves I have from different manufacturers.
