ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to the field of bag accessories, and more particularly to a removable tray support system for a bag.
2. Description of Related Art
The prior art is replete with myriad and diverse tray support systems for bags, but none provide a system that can be broken down or removed to maximize the usable space when the trays are not in use.
While all of the aforementioned prior art constructions are more than adequate for the basic purpose and function for which they have been specifically designed, they are uniformly deficient with respect to their failure to provide a simple, efficient, and practical removable tray support system for a bag.
As a consequence of the foregoing situation, there has existed a longstanding need for a new and improved tray support system for a bag, and the provision of such a construction is a stated objective of the present invention.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Briefly stated, the present invention provides a tray support system for a bag having an internal compartment with an access opening in the front wall. The tray support system includes a pair of opposing tray support brackets attached to opposing vertical side walls of the internal compartment. Each of the pair of brackets has a plurality of ledges that are horizontally aligned to form complementary ledges that receive and support the outer edges of a tray. The tray support brackets may be releasably attached directly to the side walls of the compartment, or attached to rigid inserts which are in turn attached to the side walls. When the trays are not in use, the space in the compartment is substantially unobstructed and can be used to store various items. Also, the brackets and inserts are easily and conveniently removably so that the bag may be folded for storage.
