Abstract
A storage assembly structured to be supported on a base is presented, wherein the base includes a plurality of spaced apart beams. At least one embodiment of the storage assembly includes a platform and at least one mounting device attached or otherwise connected to the platform. The mounting device(s) comprises an attachment mechanism which is structured to be removably engaged with the base and/or one or more beams thereof. Further, in at least one embodiment, the mounting device(s) is disposed and structured to removably support the platform in a predetermined spaced relation to said base.
Claims12
A storage assembly structured to be supported on a base, the base including a plurality of spaced apart beams, said storage assembly comprising:
- a platform,
- a plurality of at least four mounting devices attached to said platform and cooperatively disposed thereon to removably support said platform on two adjacent beams in either of at least two supported orientations,
- said at least two supported orientations distinguishable by a variable spacing between the two adjacent beams,
- each of said plurality of mounting devices comprising a plurality of at least four stabilizing portions and at least one support portion, said stabilizing portions each extending outwardly from said support portion,
- wherein said stabilizing portions are disposable in a facing relation to opposite sides of a corresponding beam disposed in either of at least two transverse positions relative to said support portion, and
- wherein at least one of said plurality of mounting devices is disposed in an engaging relation with the base and at least a different one of said plurality of mounting devices is disposed in a non-operative relation with the base at least while said platform is supported on at least two of the spaced apart beams in either of said at least two supported orientations.
A storage assembly structured to be supported on a base, the base including a plurality of spaced apart beams, said storage assembly comprising:
- a platform,
- a plurality of walls disposed in a surrounding relation to said platform,
- said platform and said plurality of walls being cooperatively structured and disposed to define a storage receptacle including an at least partially hollow interior compartment,
- a plurality of mounting devices attached to said storage receptacle, and
- said plurality of mounting devices comprising an attachment mechanism removably engaging the base on two beams in either of at least two supported orientations, said at least two supported orientations distinguishable by a variable spacing between the two adjacent beams,
- wherein at least two of the plurality of mounting devices are disposed in an operative, engaging relation with the base and at least one of the plurality of mounting devices is disposed in a non-operative, non-engaging relation with the base, at least while said storage receptacle is supported on the spaced apart beams in either of said at least two supported orientations.
