Abstract
A shelf system for use primarily on home garage and basement walls is inexpensive, though very functional. The shelf system is comprised of shelf brackets and a set of elongated members. The shelf brackets have a vertical leg, a horizontal leg extending from the vertical leg and having at least three recesses formed in it, and a diagonal support leg. The recesses in the horizontal leg are dimensioned to receive elongated members such as conduits in a manner wherein the top surfaces of the elongated members extend above the horizontal leg of the shelf bracket. The conduits collectively form a shelf to hold goods.

A shelf bracket for mounting on a wall for use in conjunction with a set of elongated members to form a shelf system, said shelf bracket having (i) a vertical leg for attachment to the wall;
- (ii) a horizontal leg extending substantially perpendicular from the vertical leg, said horizontal leg having at least three recesses formed in it to partially receive the elongated members in a substantially wobble-free state and dimensioned such that a top surface of each elongated member extends above the top surface of the horizontal leg;
- and (iii) a diagonal support leg extending from near a bottom of the vertical leg to near an end of the horizontal leg.
A shelf system for attachment to a wall, said system comprising:
- (a) at least two shelf brackets, each said bracket having
- (i) a vertical leg for attachment to the wall;
- (ii) a horizontal leg extending substantially perpendicular from the vertical leg, said horizontal leg having at least three recesses formed in it to partially receive the elongated embers in a substantially wobble-free state and dimensioned such that a top surface of each elongated member extends above the top surface of the horizontal leg;
- and (iii) a diagonal support leg extending from near a bottom of the vertical leg to near an end of the horizontal leg;
- and
- (b) a set of elongated members, each elongated member resting in one of the recesses on the horizontal leg of each shelf bracket in a manner such that a top surface of each said elongated member extends above the horizontal leg of the shelf brackets.
