Abstract: An apparatus and system for removably storing an object in an area having one or more area supports so as to position the container below the area supports and above the floor of the area. The apparatus has a support rail that mounts to the area supports and a container engaging section that securely holds the object. The container engaging section has a static support assembly and a dynamic support assembly defining a space for the object. The static support assembly engages one side of the object. The dynamic support assembly has a dynamic support that connects to a moving mechanism so it will move along the support rail to engage an opposing side of the object. A biasing mechanism biases the dynamic support toward the static support assembly to secure the object therebetween. The support rail has a track and the moving mechanism moves along the track.

Abstract: An apparatus and system for removably storing a storage container in an area having one or more overhead area supports so as to position the container below the area supports and above the floor of the area. The apparatus has a support rail that mounts to the area supports and a container engaging section that securely holds the container. The container engaging section has a static support assembly and a dynamic support assembly defining a container space for the container. The static support assembly engages one lip of the container. The dynamic support assembly has a dynamic support that connects to a moving mechanism so it will move along the support rail to engage an opposing lip of the container. A biasing mechanism biases the dynamic support toward the static support assembly to secure the container. The support rail can have a channel that encloses the biasing and moving mechanisms.

Abstract: An apparatus and system for removably storing storage containers in an area, such as a garage or shed, having one or more overhead area supports, such as a joist, ceiling or the like, so as to position the storage containers below the area supports and above the floor of the area. The apparatus has a container engaging section that holds the container and a mounting section that mounts the apparatus to the area supports. The container engaging section has a static support member and a dynamic support assembly that define a container space for a container. The static support member engages one lip of the container. The dynamic support assembly has a plurality of dynamic supports that move along a rail assembly, each dynamic support has a biasing mechanism that biases a lip engaging device to engage an opposing lip of the container to secure the container in the apparatus.

The dynamic support assembly has a plurality of dynamic supports, each with a biasing mechanism that biases an insert member relative to a tubular receiver member. A device attached to the insert member engages an opposing lip of the container to secure the container.
