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.
Claims11
An article comprising:
- a first supporting member;
- a second supporting member;
- a generally planar top member comprising a first end directly attached to the first supporting member and the second supporting member;
- a first longitudinal support member adjacent the first supporting member and the generally planar top member;
- a second longitudinal support member adjacent the second supporting member and the generally planar top member;
- and
- wherein the first supporting member, the second supporting member, and the generally planar top member are arranged to conform around an associated planar member;
- wherein a second end of the generally planar top member is cantilevered into a desired space;
- wherein the second end of the generally planar top member comprises a hook or eyelet mounted to an underside of the second end;
- wherein the first longitudinal support member is separate from the first supporting member;
- wherein the first longitudinal support member is directly attached to the generally planar top member;
- wherein the generally planar top member has a length defining a longitudinal axis;
- wherein the second longitudinal support member is longer than the first longitudinal support member along the longitudinal axis;
- and
- wherein the first longitudinal support member is shaped differently than the second longitudinal support member.

An article comprising:
- a first supporting member, the first supporting member having a f irst interior surface;
- a second supporting member;
- the second supporting member having a second interior surface, the first and second supporting members being substantially parallel and, are arranged to receive between them an associated generally vertically oriented planar member, the first and second supporting members are further configured so that the first interior surface of the first supporting member and the second interior surface of the second supporting me mber are in selective operative engagement with first and second exterior surfaces of the associated generally vertically oriented planar member and thereby selectively, removably affix the article atop a top surface of the associated generally vertically oriented planar surface member;
- a generally planar top member comprising a first end which is attached to the first and second supporting members, the generally planar top member having a longitudinal centerline and a longitudinal length;
- a plane of the associated generally vertically oriented planar member intersecting the longitudinal centerline of the generally planar top member, but not bisecting the longitudinal centerline of the generally planar top member,
- a first longitudinal support member adjacent the first supporting member and the generally planar top member;
- a second longitudinal support member adjacent the second supporting member and the generally planar top member;
- wherein the first longitudinal support member is separate from the first supporting member;
- wherein the longitudinal length of the generally planar top member defines a longitudinal axis;
- wherein the second longitudinal support member is longer than the first longitudinal support member along the longitudinal axis;
- wherein a second end of the generally planar top member is cantilevered into a desired space;
- an opportunity location, the opportunity location at the second end of the generally planar top member;
- a hook or eyelet, the hook or eyelet being mounted to an underside of the second end of the generally planar top member;
- and
- wherein the first longitudinal member is shaped differently than the second longitudinal support member.
