ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides hanging storage compartment apparatus with various shelf levels adapted to be suspended by a plurality of tension lines from an overhead structure, such as a ceiling. The storage apparatus includes at least one storage unit rotatably mounted to a suspended stationary member, such as a platform. Tension lines secured to the suspended member or platform are used to hang the storage apparatus from the overhead structure. A rotation bearing, such as a ball bearing ring, interposed between the suspended member or platform and the storage unit enables rotation of the storage unit relative to this suspended stationary member. In a further embodiment of the invention, upper and lower storage units, both of which are rotatable, may be mounted respectively above and below the suspended platform. A rotatable shaft passing through the suspended platform concentric with the rotation bearing, joins the upper and lower units so that rotation of either unit relative to the suspended platform simultaneously rotates the other unit by a corresponding amount. The weight of the storage shelves and contents keeps the suspension lines taut and thus provides overall stability. In another embodiment of the invention, a non-rotatable suspended storage shelf unit is hung from an overhead structure, such as a ceiling, so that the unit is positioned in a desired attractive location in a room, elevated above the floor.
