  • Patent number: 5083670
    Abstract: A revolving storage device useful for organizing and storing small items in a multiplicity of containers. The device provides a drum assembly comprised of spaced-apart multi-sided end caps to which an equal number of side panels disposed therebetween, are affixed. The side panels include recessed receptacles for receiving the containers. The assembly exhibits structural integrity by virtue of the joints between adjacent panels formed of mitered edges and an internal ledge within the end caps on which the extremities of the side panels rest. The end caps include unitary shaft stubs which are engaged by a bracket to provide support for the assembly. A simple but effective detent system employing a protuberance in the bracket and depressions in an end cap permit desired angular orientations of the device.
