Abstract

Disclosed is a system for storing various bakeware items in an organized and efficient manner. The bakeware caddy may include a short divider orthogonal to a left wall, a right wall, and a bottom surface; and a long divider orthogonal to the short divider and the bottom surface. Accordingly, the caddy may comprise one or more pockets, for example a rear pocket, a left pocket, and a right pocket, formed by disposition of the one or more walls and dividers. A strap may be disposed on the outer circumference of the caddy, the strap comprising one or more ends magnetically engaged. Thus, reversible magnet adherence of the strap ends may enable withdrawal and placement of bakeware items within the caddy. The caddy and the components thereof may be composed of various materials to enable rigidity and support and may be further covered in fabric to prevent damage to the bakeware items.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A bakeware storage system comprising:

a caddy comprising:
a left wall, a right wall, a rear wall, a bottom surface, and a front wall, the rear wall forming a first juncture with the left wall and a second juncture with the right wall, both the first juncture connecting the rear wall to the left wall and the second juncture connecting the rear wall to the right wall at an angle between 85 and 95 degrees so that the rear wall is substantially orthogonal to the left and right walls, the front wall forming a third juncture with the left wall and a fourth juncture with the right wall, both the third juncture connecting the front wall to the left wall and the fourth juncture connecting the front wall to the right wall at an angle between 85 and 95 degrees so that the front wall is substantially orthogonal to the left and right walls,
the left wall, the right wall, the rear wall, the bottom surface, and the front wall covered in a fabric covering;
a top gap defined by a first space between a top portion of the left wall and a top portion of the right wall;
a front gap defined by a second space between a proximal end of the left wall and a proximal end of the right wall,
the top gap and the front gap being uniform along a length of the caddy;
a short divider covered in the fabric covering, having a short divider length, the short divider orthogonal to the left wall, the right wall, and the bottom surface,
wherein the short divider length is defined by a first distance between the right wall and the left wall;
a long divider covered in the fabric covering, having a long divider length, the long divider orthogonal to the short divider, the front wall, and the bottom surface,
wherein the long divider length is defined by a second distance between the short divider and the front wall,
wherein the short divider length is less than the long divider length, and
wherein the long divider tapers from the short divider to the front wall;
a left pocket formed by the left wall, long divider, front wall, short divider, and bottom surface, the left pocket being a rectangular cuboid in shape, having five sides, being open to the atmosphere on the remaining side;
a right pocket formed by the right wall, long divider, front wall, short divider, and bottom surface, the left pocket being a rectangular cuboid in shape, having five sides, being open to the atmosphere on the remaining side;
a rear pocket formed by the left wall, the right wall, the bottom surface, the rear wall, and the short divider, the rear pocket being a rectangular cuboid in shape, having five sides, being open to the atmosphere on the remaining side;
and
a strap covered in the fabric covering traversing the front gap, the strap comprising:
a first segment,
a first magnet embedded within the first segment,
a second segment,
a second magnet embedded in the second segment,
wherein the first magnet is configured to reversibly adhere to the second magnet across the front gap to enable opening and closing of the strap.

and
a strap covered in the fabric covering traversing the front gap, the strap comprising,
a first segment,
a first magnet embedded within the first segment,
a second segment,
a second magnet embedded in the second segment,
wherein the first magnet is configured to reversibly adhere to the second magnet across the front gap to enable opening and closing of the strap.
