Support assembly for wire shelf and method of use

A support assembly for a wire shelf, the support assembly comprising:

• a first body having a first body front, a first body rear, a first body top and a first body bottom, the first body having a first body cavity and a first engagement mouth proximate the first body bottom;
• the first body cavity having an internal cavity surface and a generally round cross-section and extending from a cavity opening proximate the first body top to a cavity floor away from the cavity opening, the first engagement mouth having a first wire engagement surface, a first mouth front edge and a first mouth rear edge, said first mouth front edge and first mouth rear edge extending away from a first mouth base, said first mouth rear edge proximate said first body rear and said first mouth front edge proximate said first body front, the first wire engagement surface extending between said first mouth front edge and first mouth rear edge;
• a second body having a second body front, a second body rear, a second body top and a second body bottom, the second body having a second body column extending from the second body bottom toward the second body top, the second body column having a body column outer surface, a generally round cross-section and a column end surface proximate the second body bottom and a second engagement mouth proximate the second body top, the second engagement mouth having a second wire engagement surface, a second mouth front edge and a second mouth rear edge, said second mouth front edge and second mouth rear edge extending away from a second mouth base, said second mouth rear edge proximate said second body rear and said second mouth front edge proximate said second body front, the second wire engagement surface extending between said second mouth front edge and second mouth rear edge;
• one of the first or second body comprising an engagement hook;
• one of the first or second body comprising a plurality of ribs, the ribs comprising a rib bearing surface, the rib bearing surface proximate one of the internal cavity surface or the body column outer surface;
• said first body engagement mouth facing away from said second body engagement mouth;
• a spring assembly located between the first body and the second body, said spring assembly having opposed first and second spring ends, the first spring end engaging the first body proximate the cavity floor, the second spring end engaging the second body proximate the second body bottom, the second body column located within the first body cavity, the support assembly having a non-compressed configuration wherein the first body is biased away from the second body by the spring assembly and the support assembly having a compressed configuration wherein a compression force compresses the spring assembly and the first body is biased toward the second body.
