Adjustable Storage System

Abstract

An adjustable storage system provides a space efficient system of storage cabinets. The system includes a rectangular base platform with a pair of primary rails running along the length of the base platform. A plurality of primary storage cabinets is slidably engaged with the primary rails. Each of the primary storage cabinets has a pair of doors on one side and a handle on an adjacent side. A secondary rail running above the primary cabinets and parallel to the primary rails supports a plurality of secondary storage cabinets that are each slidably engaged with the secondary rail via a rolling mechanism. A rotating joint in the rolling mechanism allows the secondary cabinets to be rotated about the vertical axis for greater accessibility. The system can also include a counter top attached to a terminal end of the primary rails via a plurality of support beams.

1 . An adjustable storage system comprising:
 a rectangular base platform having two opposing longer sides and two opposing shorter sides;   a pair of rails attached to, and running along the length of the longer sides of the base platform;   a plurality of primary storage cabinets slidably engaged with and resting upon the primary rails,   wherein each of said primary storage cabinets has a pair of doors on a front side and a handle on an adjacent outer side;   wherein the front side of each primary storage cabinet is parallel to the shorter sides of the platform base.   
     
     
         2 . (canceled) 
     
     
         3 . An adjustable storage system comprising:
 a rectangular base platform having two opposing longer sides and two opposing shorter sides;   a pair of rails attached to, and running along the length of the longer sides of the base platform;   a plurality of primary storage cabinets slidably engaged with and resting upon the primary rails,   wherein each of said primary storage cabinets has a pair of doors on a front side and a handle on an adjacent outer side;   wherein the front side of each primary storage cabinet is parallel to the shorter sides of the platform base;   a counter top rigidly attached to a terminal end of the rails via a plurality of support beams, wherein the plurality of storage cabinets are all movable with respect to the counter top.   
     
     
         4 . An adjustable storage system comprising:
 a rectangular base platform having two opposing longer sides and two opposing shorter sides;   a pair of primary rails attached to, and running along the length of the longer sides of the base platform;   a plurality of primary storage cabinets slidably engaged with and resting upon the primary rails,   wherein each of said primary storage cabinets has a pair of doors on a front side and a handle on an adjacent outer side;   wherein the front side of each primary storage cabinet is parallel to the shorter sides of the platform base;   a secondary rail running above the primary cabinets and parallel to the primary rails;   a plurality of secondary storage cabinets slidably engaged with the secondary rail via a rolling mechanism, the secondary storage cabinets being positioned above the primary storage cabinets, wherein each of said secondary storage cabinets has a pair of doors on a front side and a handle on an adjacent outer side; and   wherein the front side of each secondary storage cabinets is parallel to the shorter sides of the platform base.   
     
     
         5 . The adjustable storage system of  claim 4  wherein the rolling mechanism is comprised of an upper and lower portion that are rotatably connected, thereby allowing the secondary storage cabinets to be rotated about a vertical axis. 
     
     
         6 . The adjustable storage system of  claim 4  further comprising a counter top attached to a terminal end of the primary rails via a plurality of support beams. 
     
     
         7 . An adjustable overhead storage system comprising:
 an overhead support rail having a lower surface with a channel configured to reversibly receive   a plurality of storage cabinets, wherein said support rail is configured to be affixed to a wall or ceiling;   a plurality of storage cabinets slidably and reversibly engaged with the rail via a rolling mechanism that is connected with a top surface of each storage cabinet;   wherein each of said storage cabinets has a pair of doors on a front side and a handle on an adjacent outer side;   wherein the storage cabinets are connected with the support rail such that the front of each storage cabinet faces the back of the adjacent storage cabinet;   wherein each storage cabinet is movable with respect to each other storage cabinet and the rail; and   wherein storage cabinets can be added or removed from the rail according to the storage capacity needs.   
     
     
         8 . The adjustable storage system of  claim 7  wherein the rolling mechanism is comprised of an upper and lower portion that are rotatably connected, thereby allowing the secondary storage cabinets to be rotated about a vertical axis.
