The U-shaped bracket has a base portion anchored to the wall below the rear of the shelf piece. The arms of the U-shaped bracket extend diagonally up from the base to inwardly bent ends. The inwardly bent ends can be removably disposed through the apertures of the apertured fixtures, thereby resulting in a releasable engagement between the shelf piece and U-shaped bracket. The retaining hooks provide removable support for a bicycle by retaining the top tube of the bicycle frame.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 1993Date of Patent: July 5, 1994Assignee: Lee Rowan CompanyInventor: Michael H.
