ABSTRACT:
A rotational shelf apparatus (10) for being rotatably mounted in a cabinet or other storage area having a ceiling surface (14) and a floor surface (16). The apparatus (10) comprises a rotating support shaft (22) having first and second end portions (24) and (26), respectively, the support shaft (22) being provided with a coaxial hole (38) at its first end portion (24) for slidably receiving a spring member (42). The second end portion (26) of the support shaft (22) is provided with means for rotatably engaging the floor surface of the cabinet or storage area. The apparatus (10) further comprises a stationary support rod (44) having first and second end portions (51) and (52), respectively, the second end portion (52) being slidably received in the coaxial hole (38) of the support shaft (22) in telescoping fashion such that the second end portion (52) of the support rod (44) releasably engages the first end portion ( 46) of the spring member (42) thus, biasing the support rod (44) in the direction of the ceiling surface of the cabinet. The first end portion (51) of the support rod (44) is provided with means for releasably engaging the ceiling surface (14) of the cabinet (12). At least one support structure is mounted on the rotating support shaft (22), this support structure, in one embodiment, comprising a shelf member (20), and in another embodiment comprises a hanger rack. Further, in one preferred embodiment the apparatus (10) is provided with a homing assembly (84) for releasably holding the rotating support shaft (22) at at least two preselected rotational position.
