Abstract: A hanging shoe rack for a closet door or other vertical surface. Frame sections have opposite sides provided with support arms that taper from top to bottom for reduced material requirements. The sections are connected by bars and feet having L-shaped tongues fitting in L-shaped slots with long curved surfaces in contact for enhanced strength. The bars that receive hanger brackets have strong curved connections with the frame sides. The tongues on the bars that hook to the brackets are reinforced by tabs that fit closely in notches in the brackets to resist side to side sway.

Abstract: A self-standing shoe rack or other type of shoe rack such as a hanging shoe rack which can expand lengthwise due to telescoping shoe support bars. Opposite frame sides may have equal-size sockets that receive identical end tubes. The end tubes fit telescopically in center tubes to allow length adjustment.

Abstract: A storage rack which hangs on the upper edge of a base cabinet door. A pair of hanger brackets fit closely on the door edge and are constructed to accommodate the plain edge of a flush mounted door or the stepped edge of a recessed cabinet door. Hooks on the inside parts of the brackets receive mounting fixtures used to attach storage devices such as baskets, trays, shelves, paper towel holders, food wrap dispensers, towel hooks or towel bars. Tabs on the outside parts of the hanger brackets allow a towel bar or other device to be mounted on the outside surface of the base cabinet door. Alternative embodiments provide a single bracket which can be applied to both flush and recessed doors and which accommodates different types of storage devices that may be hooked or otherwise connected to the brackets. The connections between the brackets and storage devices can be made in various ways, including hooks fitting through openings and threaded connections.

Abstract: A shoe rack for mounting to an upright surface, or for hanging over a door, includes a pair of plastic, vertical side frame members and a plurality of shoe-retaining bars positioned between the side frame members upon which shoes, boxes and the like may be supported. A number of different embodiments are shown, each of which incorporates different features, including the feature of a loop projecting upwardly from each arm to provide a side barrier for retaining shoes on the rack. The loop has a configuration to provide an open space above the arm.

A number of different embodiments are shown, each of which incorporates different features, including the feature of a side barrier arm that acts as a lateral barrier preventing shoes from falling off the side of the rack when the door is swung open or closed.

Abstract: A shoe rack for mounting to an upright surface, or for hanging over a door, includes a pair of plastic, vertical side frame members and a plurality of shoe-retaining bars positioned between the side frame members upon which shoes, boxes and the like may be supported. A number of different embodiments are shown, each of which incorporates different features, including a construction making use of generally S-shaped support arms that provide lateral barriers to displacement of shoes off of the side of the shoe rack when the door is swung open or closed.

Abstract: A shoe rack for mounting to an upright surface, or for hanging over a door, includes a pair of plastic, vertical side frame members and a plurality of shoe-retaining bars positioned between the side frame members upon which shoes, boxes and the like may be supported. Shoes may be held on the shoe rack by providing tabs on support arms which hold shoe retaining bars, with the tabs forming side barriers that resist displacement of shoes laterally off of the rack.

Abstract: A hanging shoe rack for supporting shoes in an angular manner. A pair of side frame members having an elongate body section. A plurality of support arms project outwardly and downwardly from each main body section. Pairs of retaining bars are positioned between said frame members and are aligned in a plane forming an acute angle with respect to vertical, to thereby support thereon shoes in an angular manner, with the shoes directed downwardly toward a vertical surface upon which the shoe rack is placed. The support arms, upon opposite side frames, traverse side sections of the shoes to form a barrier against lateral movement of the shoes. Unique socket structure, into which the retaining bars are positioned, permit easy assembly of the shoe rack. Additionally, each side frame member includes unique attachment structure, upon upper and lower ends thereof, so that multiple shoe racks of the present invention may be vertically suspended one from another.
