A storage device comprising:
- a first sidewall;
- a first channel extending laterally through the entire first sidewall, the first channel comprising:
- a first end;
- a second end;
- and
- a middle portion lower than the first end and the second end;
- a second sidewall opposite the first sidewall;
- a second channel extending laterally through the entire second sidewall, the second channel comprising:
- a first end;
- a second end;
- and
- a middle portion lower than the first end and the second end;
- a storage element defining a storage compartment, the storage element slidably and rotatably coupled to the first channel and the second channel.

A storage device comprising:
- a first sidewall;
- a first upper channel extending laterally through the first sidewall between a first end and a second end;
- a first lower channel extending laterally through the first sidewall and positioned below the first upper channel, the first lower channel comprising:
- a first end;
- and
- a second end positioned below the first end of the first lower channel by a first height;
- a second sidewall opposite the first sidewall;
- a second upper channel extending laterally through the second sidewall between a first end and a second end;
- a second lower channel extending laterally through the second sidewall and positioned below the second upper channel, the second lower channel comprising:
- a first end;
- and
- a second end positioned below the first end of the second lower channel by the first height;
- a rear wall extending between and connecting the first sidewall and the second sidewall;
- and
- a storage element defining a storage compartment, the storage element slidably and rotatably coupled to the first sidewall and the second sidewall;
- wherein the first end of the second lower channel is positioned between the rear wall and the second end of the second lower channel.
13 more elements
A storage device comprising:
- a first sidewall comprising a first front surface;
- a second sidewall opposing the first sidewall and comprising a second front surface;
- a rear wall extending between and connecting the first sidewall and the second sidewall;
- an opening between the first sidewall and the second sidewall, the opening opposing the rear wall;
- a first channel extending laterally through the first sidewall, the first channel comprising:
- a first end;
- a second end;
- and
- a middle portion between the first end and the second end, wherein the first end is positioned between the opening and the middle portion, and wherein the middle portion is lower than the second end;
- and
- a storage element comprising a storage compartment connected to an upper opening;
- wherein the storage element is slidably coupled to the first sidewall and the second sidewall such that the storage element is slidable along the first sidewall and the second sidewall toward and away from the rear wall;
- and
- wherein the storage element is rotatable with respect to the first sidewall and the second sidewall between a first position in which the upper opening is partially between the first sidewall and the second sidewall and a second position in which the entire upper opening is positioned in front of the first front surface of the first sidewall and the second front surface of the second sidewall.
