Patent ID: 8777022

Claim:
A shelving system for installation upon a wall, comprising: a hanger track mountable substantially horizontally upon a wall; at least two main panels hangable vertically in mutually parallel relation upon the hanger track and substantially perpendicular to the wall, each of the at least two main panels having a formational plane of symmetry and being molded integrally to define on each of the main panels: a panel left side, a panel right side, a panel front having a front edge, and a panel back; a web; a hook notch in the panel back, engageable with the hanger track whereby the main panel may hang by gravity upon the hanger track; at least one wardrobe rod hook defined as a concave notch in the front edge and extending down and into the web; at least four shelf ledges comprising at least one left side upper shelf ledge defined at a shelf separation distance above at least one left side lower shelf ledge, and at least one right side upper shelf ledge defined the shelf separation distance above at least one right side lower shelf ledge, said shelf ledges extending from the panel front to the panel back; wherein the panel right side and panel left side are substantially bilaterally symmetrical about the formational plane of symmetry; a back frame flange projecting laterally from the sides of the main panel at the back of the main panel and extending a distance less than the shelf separation distance downward from the upper shelf ledges; a front frame flange projecting laterally from the sides of the main panel at the front of the main panel and extending a distance less than the shelf separation distance downward from the upper shelf ledges; at least one wardrobe rod having two opposite ends, each end engageable with respective wardrobe rod hooks of two adjacent panels of the at least two main panels; and at least one shelf disposable between the two adjacent panels, each end of each shelf resting upon respective shelf ledges of the two adjacent panels; wherein each frame flange descends on each main panel from one of the upper shelf ledges toward one of the lower shelf ledges, and is tapered downward to decrease progressively in lateral extent as the frame flange descends from the one upper shelf ledge to approach the one lower shelf ledge below the frame flange, there being a vertical gap between the bottom of the frame flange and the lower shelf ledge.
