Abstract
A planter is designed to be positioned on top of or against an office partition wall. The planter may include brackets which support the planter on top of the partition wall, or against the partition wall. The planter may also be self-supporting by forming a groove in the bottom of the planter, the groove being designed to snugly fit over the top of the wall, or the planter may include an integral horizontal arm with a downwardly projecting component or another planter, wherein the wall friction fits between the dual planters or between the planter and the downwardly projecting component.
Claims12
A planter designed to be mounted upon a wall partition having horizontal surface terminating in two parallel vertical surfaces comprising:
- a leakproof container having a side wall and a bottom, and an unobstructed open interior, said container including two longitudinal slots formed in said bottom of said container;
- and
- a bracket means including means capable of being in friction contact with each of said two vertical surfaces to securely attach said bracket means to said wall partition, and means to securely attach said container to said bracket including a planter bracket having a base portion and upwardly projecting end portions extending from said base portion, whereby said container, is supported by said upwardly projecting end portions which friction fit within said longitudinal slots thereby positioning said container above and in close proximity to said horizontal surface.
A planter designed to be mounted upon a wall partition of the type having a horizontal surface terminating in two parallel vertical surfaces comprising:
- a leak-proof container having a side wall and a bottom, and an unobstructed interior, said bottom having two longitudinal slots therein;
- and
- a bracket means comprising a pair of angle iron members each having a horizontal leg and a downwardly depending leg, said downwardly depending legs being in parallel, spaced apart, opposed relationship, and each being located adjacent one of said wall partition vertical surfaces, means in association with said horizontal legs for varying said space between said downwardly depending legs to render said legs abutable with their respective wall partition vertical surfaces, and means to attach said container to said horizontal legs, said means including a planter bracket having a base portion and upwardly projecting end portions extending from said base portion wherein said upwardly projecting end portions friction fit within said longitudinal slots.
A planter designed to be mounted upon a wall partition having a horizontal surface terminating in two parallel vertical surfaces comprising:
- a leak-proof container having a side wall and a bottom, and an unobstructed open interior, said bottom having two longitudinal slots therein, said container having downwardly depending means in association with said bottom in parallel, spaced, opposed relationship to each other and each being located adjacent one of said vertical surfaces, and means to adjust said space between said downwardly depending means to render each abutable with its respective one of said vertical surfaces, said downwardly depending means also including upwardly projecting end portions, said upwardly projecting end portion being friction fit within said longitudinal slots.
