Abstract
A bracket for a railing structure includes a bottom portion comprising an inner surface that is formed in a shape that conforms to a profile of a top surface, first side surface, and second side surface of the railing structure so that the bracket can be flexibly attached to and detached from the railing structure. The inner surface is also formed in a shape that permits the bracket to slide in a longitudinal direction of the railing structure while being held firmly in a lateral direction of the railing structure. A mounting platform is positioned on a top surface of the bottom portion.
Claims19
A tray bracket for a deck railing structure, the tray bracket comprising:
- a) a bottom portion comprising an inner surface that is formed in a shape that conforms to a predetermined surface profile of a top surface, first side surface, and second side surface of the deck railing structure, the shape allowing the bottom portion to slide in a longitudinal direction along the deck railing structure while being held firmly in a lateral direction by outer surfaces of the deck railing structure such that it cannot rotate, the tray bracket being formed of a material that is sufficiently flexible to deform, allowing the bottom portion to snap over the deck railing structure;
- and
- b) a tray platform positioned on a top surface of the bottom portion of the bracket.
A beverage holder comprising:
- a) a bracket comprising a bottom portion comprising an inner surface that is formed in a shape that conforms to a profile of a top surface, first side surface, and second side surface of a deck railing structure, the shape allowing the bottom portion to slide in a longitudinal direction along the deck railing structure while being held firmly in a lateral direction by outer surfaces of the deck railing structure such that it cannot rotate, the bottom portion being formed of a material that is sufficiently flexible to deform allowing the bottom portion to snap over the deck railing structure;
- and
- b) a beverage holder platform positioned on a top surface of the bottom portion of the bracket and comprising a vertical support structure.
