ABSTRACT:
A support bracket for attaching a shelf to walls includes a substantially planar body having upper and lower body portions. The upper body portion includes a pair of substantially parallel lateral edges extending upward from the lower body portion and coplanar therewith. A support projects forward from the lower body portion for supporting the edge of a shelf. A flexural plate is attached to each parallel, lateral edge and has an inner edge and a lower shelf engaging edge. Each extends forwardly and inwardly from the lateral edge toward a medial portion of the upper body portion to form a gap between the inner edges of the plates. A flexible sheet hinge is attached to the flexural plates and extending along the inner and upper edges of the plates. The inner edges of the shelves move toward each other and the plates flatten into a more coplanar configuration with the body member and the flexural plates return to their original orientation as the upper edge of the shelf passed the lower shelf engaging edges.
