Abstract: An overhead storage device includes a storage container that is pivotably or rotatably mounted to an overhead surface, such as a ceiling or a plurality of rafters. The storage container is generally moved by a motorized actuator assembly. The motorized actuator assembly includes a worm drive and follower nut arrangement. The storage container is supported by a frame assembly and is secured to the frame assembly generally at an end of the storage container. The frame assembly also includes a plurality of arms that secure the storage container to the frame assembly. The overhead storage device is sized to allow a motor vehicle to fit below a raised storage container in an average height garage. The storage container is assembled from two generally identical halves that are nestable for shipping and storage.

Abstract: A collapsible bottomless storage pen having a continuous articulated peripheral wall including parallel sidewalls and interconnecting end walls. Each end wall includes a bend line. Interior connecting flaps are hingedly attached to the end walls and cooperatively engage each other to retain the pen in an operative position. The end walls and connecting flaps are sized to permit folding of the pen to the length of the sidewalls, such that the connecting flaps and end walls are parallel to and between the parallel collapsed sidewalls.
