  • Patent number: 11696641
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a suspension system comprising a hang standard having slots and being configured to be vertically arranged, and a bracket configured to be attached to the hang standard in a cantilevered fashion using connectors on a proximal end of the bracket that enter slots on along the hang standard. A slider unit is adapted to be mounted on the bracket and to carry a container or other component. A rearwardly extending portion of the slider unit is arranged on the slider unit to reach into one of the slots of the hang standard occupied by a connector of the bracket to prevent the slider unit from tilting forward on the bracket.

  • Publication number: 20230192355
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a mesh container and a method of making a mesh container that has a first and a second set of opposing side panels, a bottom panel, and a rim directed outwards from the upper edges of the side panels. At least two adjacent sides panels of the container and portion of the rim directed outwardly from the upper edge of the side panels are made from a sheet metal precursor with least one perforated and a stretched portion and unstretched metal portion. The precursor is folded so that the unstretched metal portion joins the two side panels and is bent to form the rim. A notch is cut from the edge of the unstretched metal portion where it is bent at the corner formed by the two side panels.

  • Publication number: 20220338627
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for supporting an extendable and retractable storage component between two cantilevered brackets of a storage or organization system, to which have been mounted drawer slides. A hanging bracket, to which a drawer slide may be joined, is suspended from one side of a cantilevered bracket by a connector that cooperates with a ledge projecting from the side of the cantilevered bracket to position and orient the drawer slide to extend in a direction parallel to the axis of the cantilevered bracket. Spacers mounted on the drawer slide engage the underside of the ledge and the side of the hanging bracket help to stabilize the hanging bracket by interfering with movement of the drawer slide associated with swinging and pivoting of the hanging bracket about it axes parallel and transverse to the axis of the cantilevered bracket that extending through the connector.

  • Publication number: 20210394954
    Abstract: A mesh container two sets of opposing sides, a bottom, and a rim extending outwardly from the top of the sides is folded from one or more precursors cut from a web comprising a mesh portion formed by perforating and stretching part of a sheet and an unstretched portion. Each precursor is single piece that is folded into at least two side panels made at least partly of mesh and a portion of the outwardly extending rim made of the unstretched portion of the web. One or more portions for a bottom panel may be included with the two side panels, the bottom of the container being formed by folding the bottom panel portions away for the side panels to form an overlapping joint with each other.
