Abstract
A novel shelf support system which is capable of bearing heavy loads and provides a large measure of adjustability, yet is completely self-contained and only very minimally visible where the shelf meets the wall. The system comprises threaded fasteners for securement to a wall, e.g. at the stud locations, each fastener bearing a support shaft and a spring clip for interengagement with detent grooves which run lengthwise of elongated recessed chambers within the shelf.
Claims8
A wall mounting system for an elongated member with at least one hollow interior chamber having an opening on the side abutting a wall, said opening extending lengthwise of the elongated member, a detent means within the chamber running substantially lengthwise thereof, at least one elongated fastener member having on one end means for rigid securement to the wall and the other end projecting perpendicularly from the wall and spring means associated with said portion of said fastener extending perpendicularly from the wall, said spring means comprising a releasable locking portion biased radially outwardly from the fastener for interengagement with said detent means at selected positions lengthwise thereof.
