German term or phrase: Ausgleichsregal
this is just a description of elements for the "Endlosbauweise" of a furniture manufacturer and one of the units is a "Ausgleichsregal". To me, it looks just like any other shelving unit, albeit a little bit skinnier, but I have no clue what to call it.
Anyone has an idea?

(width) compensating shelving unit
Explanation:
or possibly corner filler unit, I think its function may be to "fill out" the remaining bit of wall that the other furniture does not cover, however it will depend on the rest of the text, of course.
The leaflet in the (German) link below describes width compensation shelving of this kind.
