Abstract
An interlocking assembly of two generally rectangular panel pairs hinged to each other with one edge of each of the panels including a plurality of recess cut-outs aligned adjacent matching cut-outs in an adjacent edge of the other panel of the respective panel pair in which dishes can be engaged in a cantilevered manner. A telescoping handle extends across the two generally rectangular panel pairs to select the degree of the hinged articulation between the panels of the two generally rectangular panel pairs. To insure a conforming capture of the dishes the respective cut-outs may be covered with a resilient covering.
Claims14
A collapsible assembly useful to support in a cantilevered manner, a plurality of dishes, comprising:
- a first and second panel pair each including a pair of generally rectangular panels, each one of said panels defined by an inner and an outer edge, each of said first and second panel pair having the respective inner edge of the panels of each said first and second panel pair hinged to each other and the outer edges of the panels of said first panel pair hinged to corresponding outer edges of the panels of said second panel pair, said inner edges of each of the panels of each said panel pair including a plurality of matching recess cut-outs for suspending a selected one of said dishes in a cantilevered manner;
- and adjustable handle means connected between said first and second panel pairs for selecting the hinged alignment between corresponding ones of each said panel.
A collapsible assembly useful to support in a cantilevered manner, a plurality of dishes, comprising:
- a plurality of pairs of generally rectangular panels each panel of each pair having an inner and an outer edge and having the respective inner edges of said panels comprising each said pair hinged to each other to form the respective panel pair, the outer edges of said panels of each panel pair being hinged to corresponding outer edges of said panels of another panel pairs;
- a plurality of matching recess cut-outs extending along each said inner edge of each said panel of each said panel pair for suspending a selected one of said dishes in a cantilevered manner;
- and
- adjustable handle means connected between selected ones of said panel pairs for selecting the hinged alignment between corresponding ones of each said panel of said selected ones of said panel pairs.
