Abstract: A stowable shelf/rack assembly having a shelf or rack member for supporting articles placed thereon or hung or depending therefrom, and a pair of hangers pivotally connected to either side of the shelf member and pivotable between a first position in which the hangers are oriented transverse to the rack with a first hook portion extending rearwardly of the assembly and adapted to hang on and be supported by a bar or other member affixed to a wall or similar surface, and a second position in which the major portion of each of the hangers lies generally in the same plane as and rests on the rack with a second hook portion extending rearwardly from the front of the assembly and engageable when said hangers are in the second position with a shelf or other support member for supporting the collapsed assembly in close contact with one surface thereof.

Abstract: A mug/cup organizer has a formed wire clip that can slidably engage a shelf; a wire support framework slidably engages the clip adjacent the lower surface of the shelf; a plurality of downwardly extending hooks is attached to the framework. The mugs or cups can be hung from the hooks. The framework can be slid from under the shelf, while being supported by the clip, to remove cups from or hang cups thereon. The clip, framework and hooks can be formed of attractive, clean, metal-plated wire.

Abstract: A modular article supporting rack has a U-shaped supporting frame. A plurality of elongated, transversely extending, shelves, formed of wire members, is affixed to the sides of the supporting frame. Each of the rack modules is stackable for shipping and storage. Each rack module may be attached to a second identical module to form a rack having twice as many shelves. Each shelf is formed of a C-shaped, wire, shelf frame member with a package retaining lip formed in a central region thereof. A plurality of elongated shelf-support wire members can be affixed, spaced apart from one another, to the sides of the C-shaped, shelf frame member to complete each shelf.

Abstract: A fixture mounting arrangement is disclosed for effecting very convenient yet secure mounting of fixtures such as soap dishes, tissue holders, towel racks, and the like. The arrangement includes a one-piece mounting plate which is adapted to be secured to a wall or like supporting surface. The mounting plate includes one or more mounting portions, and further includes a pair of mounting flanges which extend laterally from a position spaced from the supporting surface generally angularly toward the supporting surface. The mounting arrangement further includes a retaining portion which is defined by the fixture for cooperation with the mounting plate. The retaining portion of the fixture defines one or more openings for respectively receiving the one or more mounting portions of the mounting plate, and is configured such that it is positionable between the angularly extending flanges of the plate and the supporting surface.

Abstract: A molded, one-piece shower shelf construction is disclosed which has been particularly configured for efficient and economical fabrication by injection molding. In the illustrated embodiment, the construction includes a pair of spaced apart, generally vertically extending leg portions between which extend a plurality of integrally formed shelves which permit convenient placement and storage of articles on the construction. Notably, the construction preferably includes a generally inverted U-shaped gripping portion which receives an associated shower pipe for mounting of the construction thereon, with the gripping portion preferably provided with an I-beam cross-sectional configuration for resilient, secure gripping coaction with the shower pipe.
