Abstract: An article for use with an associated vertically oriented, generally planar surface may include a generally horizontal top member supported by first and second planar supporting members, which selectively receive the associated vertically oriented, generally planar associated surface therebetween.

Abstract: An adjustable window support device is disclosed. In embodiments, the adjustable window support device includes: a horizontal segment configured to be placed into contact with a lower surface of a bay window; a vertical segment configured to be placed against a wall and configured to extend downwardly from the lower surface of the bay window along the wall; and an adjustable segment configured to extend diagonally from a bottom end of the vertical segment to the pin at or near a front end of the horizontal segment. The adjustable segment includes a first end that is pivotally coupled to the bottom end of the vertical segment and a second end that is configured to be held in a selected position by a pin that extends laterally through at least two holes at or near the front end of the horizontal segment.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for securing a platform to a window ledge is provided. The apparatus comprises a frame. The frame has a first support rail, a second support rail and a plurality of support members. Each of the support members have a top and a bottom end and wherein the at least one support rail is fixedly attached to the top ends of each of the plurality of support members. The bottom ends of each of the plurality of support members are fixedly attached to the second support rail. The apparatus has a platform fixedly attached to the second support rail. The apparatus has at least one hanging member having a top and a bottom end, wherein the bottom end is fixedly attached to the at least one support rail and the top end is adapted to be secure secured to a window ledge.

Abstract: The apparatus is constructed with upright supports and contilevers which project from the supports. The cantilevers carry a suspension device for supporting a rubble chute as well as a foldable U-shaped tray which defines a walkway for access to the chute. The cantilevers are constructed of horizontal tie bars and diagonal struts which can be detachably connected from the upright supports.
