ABSTRACT:
A modular container adapted to be mounted on apertured board has a semicylindrical channel member which can be secured to such a board by brackets, which brackets removably hold the channel member in position on the board, divide the channel member into compartments, and provide a hinge or pivot for a lid for the container. Standard commercially available apertured board comes in two thicknesses, with the apertures in the boards of the two thicknesses being uniformly spaced, though the diameter of the apertures of thicker board is greater than that of the diameter of the apertures in thinner board. The upper arm of each bracket is provided with a projection with a pair of stops so that the projection can be inserted and removably held in an aperture of such a board of either thickness. The lower arm of each bracket is provided with a hook which catches the rear wall of the thinner board and engages the wall of an aperture of the thicker board to removably secure each bracket to the board. Varying the number of brackets used to mount a given channel member on an apertured board varies the number and size of the compartments into which the channel member of the container can be divided.
