Locker with Equipment Rack
A locker includes a pair of spaced-apart upstanding sidewalls and at least one shelf extending between the sidewalls, the shelf and sidewalls defining a compartment. A rack is disposed in the compartment and extends upwardly from the shelf. The rack is dimensioned and configured to support at least a pair of shoulder pads and preferably both pads and a helmet. The rack optionally includes a ventilation system, and the ventilation system, may be incorporated into a multi-locker ventilation system.
Pivotable support for clothing articles
An assembly for holding a plurality of clothing articles includes a first mount that is configured to be fixedly attached to a support surface and at least one pivotable support that is pivotally attached to the first mount. Each pivotable support has a first face and an opposite second face. Each of the first and second faces is configured to receive and hold at least one hook element for holding one or more clothing articles along the respective first or second face.
POLICE AND MILITARY EQUIPMENT RACK
An equipment stand for storing police and/or military clothing and equipment may include a base; at least one upright extending upward from the base; a belt hanger supported by the upright and effective for holding an equipment belt; a vest hanger supported by the upright and effective for holding an equipment vest; a tray supported by the upright and effective for holding miscellaneous objects that do not need to be secured; and a lock box supported by the upright and effective for holding miscellaneous objects that may need to be secured. The stand may include an upright extension for holding one or more clothing hangers. The stand may be freestanding, or may be used without the base when mounted to a wall.
IRONING CENTER
The present invention provides for a complete ironing center to be attached to and stored within a wall cabinet. The ironing board is deployed perpendicularly from the back wall of the cabinet. In one embodiment, the cabinet is integrated into a larger wall cabinet system. In these embodiments, the cabinet is extended from the wall cabinet and locked into an open position. This complete system is easily and quickly closed and stored out of sight within the cabinet when not in use.
Compact folded garment storage display and dispensing device
This compact storage, display, and dispensing system for folded garments comprises a plurality of stackable, flexible trays, each of which may hold a uniformly-folded garment, and vertical rails to which each tray may attach individually by magnets in single reinforced tray edges. Trays have nonslip upper surfaces so the garments do not slide off. Users view and select a desired garment, then remove the appropriate tray without disturbing adjacent garments or trays by simply pulling to overcome the magnetic force holding that tray attached. The remaining trays remain attached, and the force of gravity causes them to slide down the rails to occupy the space previously occupied by the now removed tray. Empty trays can either be added to the top of the stack, or removed for refilling. Due to the force of the magnets, removed trays remain in neat vertical stacks, either when empty or refilled.
Hanger assemblies for use in storage systems
A hanger assembly for a wire shelf includes at least one bracket configured to releasably couple to wire members of the wire shelf. The bracket includes a hook-shaped end portion that defines a channel for receiving a first one of the wire members and an elbow portion that defines a bend for receiving a second one of the wire members to thereby releasably couple the bracket to the wire shelf. The bracket may further include a second end portion opposite the hook-shaped end portion and a U-shaped portion defined between the elbow portion and the second end portion such that the second end portion extends generally back towards the elbow portion and the hook-shaped portion. A rod may be coupled to the bracket. Also disclosed are saddles for coupling to the brackets and receiving a rod, and a rod joiner for coupling between rods.
Clothing Accessory Organization Device
A clothing accessory organization device. The clothing accessory organization device includes a housing with a base and one or more sidewalls forming an interior volume with an open upper end. Several storage compartments are placed within the interior volume through the upper end and are sized so that the positioning of the storage compartments may be easily rearranged within the interior volume. One or more retractable J-shaped hooks are placed within the housing and designed to slide between a retracted position and an extended position. The J-shaped hooks are adapted to hang the clothing accessory organization device from a flat surface when in the extended position, such as from the top of a door. The invention may also be positioned on a horizontal surface, such as on dresser top or within a drawer. Additionally, a retractable handle is located within a sidewall for easy transportation.
STORAGE SYSTEM EMPLOYING REMOVABLE, AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTABLE PLATFORM AND REMOVABLE, AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTABLE PLATFORM EMPLOYABLE WITH SAID STORAGE SYSTEM
A platform system removably mountable within an interior compartment of a storage device having a back wall and side walls providing an interior storage compartment. Connecting passages are provided through the back wall and side walls to removably mount the platform system in the interior compartment. The platform system includes a platform and a plurality of connector members attached to the platform and removably connectable through the connecting passages; each connector member including a spring member as part of the construction. The spring members permit automatic downward and movement of said platform as a function of the weight of articles supported on the platform.
Door hinge attachable telescopic hanger
A door hinge-attachable telescopic hanger with: a) a door hinge attachment member, including an open-ended vertical shaft for attachment to a door hinge; b) an elongated main support member connected to the hinge attachment member, extending outwardly therefrom at a non-parallel angle to said vertical shaft; c) at least one moveable supplemental support member telescopically connected to said elongated main support member for movement extending away from said door hinge attachment member; d) a handle-sheath covering at least half said door hinge attachment member and a portion of said elongated main support member. There is a pin having a pin upper section and a pin lower section, and having a stopping flange between said pin upper section and said pin lower section.
TRUSS STORAGE HANGING CROSSBAR BRACKETS
Self supporting inverted U shaped brackets that freely hang on a truss or rafter beam allowing a round rod to slide through the hole creating a single crossbar support where as another set may be placed a chosen length away creating a two axle area for storing item across. Plywood laid across the pair of rods makes for an instant shelf as this creates a do it yourself overhead storage shelving system that mounts on truss or rafters normally found in a garage type structure which can be used commercially but designed for the homeowner as it is lightweight, sturdy and requires no tools or experience to erect. This is not a floor system but an adjustable removable shelf type system that uses no hardware and does not compromise the integrity of the wood and can be reached with just a stepladder depending on wall height.
