Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to an organizational shell that can be configured to cover electronic devices of various shapes and sizes within a home or workspace. The organizational shell can be configured so that it can be positioned in a first position in order to cover a first type of device with a set of defined measurement characteristics. When the organizational shell is in a second position, the shell can be sized and configured such that it can cover devices that are a second type having a different set of defined measurement characteristics.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . An organizational shell, comprising:
a first shelf having a first edge, a second edge, a third edge, and a fourth edge; a second shelf having a first edge, a second edge, a third edge, and a fourth edge, wherein the second shelf is positioned higher than the first shelf; a first side extending upwards from the first edge of the first shelf to the first edge of the second shelf; a second side extending downwards from the second edge of the first shelf to a first plane and from the second edge of the second shelf to the first plane; a third side extending downwards from the third edge of the first shelf to the first plane and from the third edge of the second shelf to the first plane; and a fourth side extending downwards from the fourth edge of the first shelf to the first plane; wherein:
the first shelf and second shelf are parallel;
the first side and fourth side are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the first shelf and second shelf;
the second side and third side are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the first shelf, second shelf, first side, and fourth side;
a second plane extends downwards from the fourth edge of the second shelf, wherein the second plane is perpendicular to the first plane;
the first shelf is higher than the first plane;
the first side and the second side share a first common edge;
the first side and the third side share a second common edge;
the second side and the fourth side share a third common edge;
the third side and the fourth side share a fourth common edge;
the first shelf and second shelf and sides comprise walls; and
a cavity is defined between the walls, the first plane, and the second plane.
2 . An organizational shell, comprising:
a plurality of shelves, wherein individual shelves comprise one or more edges; and a plurality of sides, wherein individual sides comprise one or more edges; wherein: a first plane is defined parallel to one or more of the plurality of shelves; a second plane is defined perpendicular to the first plane; one or more of the plurality of sides connects individual members of the plurality of shelves by the one or more edges of individual shelves; one or more of the plurality of sides extends from the one or more edges of individual shelves to the first plane; one or more of the plurality of sides extends from the one or more edges of individual shelves to the second plane; and a cavity is defined between the plurality of shelves, the plurality of sides, the first plane, and the second plane.
3 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , wherein individual members of the plurality of shelves and plurality of sides comprise walls.
4 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of shelves and plurality of sides form a shape, and the cavity forms the same shape.
5 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , wherein the cavity is sub-divided into sub-cavities.
6 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , wherein:
one or more of the plurality of sides and plurality of shelves forms a base; the cavity is positioned on top of the base; and the cavity is configured to accept storage of one or more items.
7 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , wherein:
a first shelf of the plurality of shelves defines a first shelf; a second shelf of the plurality of shelves defines a second shelf; the first shelf and second shelf are parallel; there is a vertical distance between the first shelf and second shelf; and wherein: a first side of the plurality of sides defines a first side; a second side of the plurality of sides defines a second side; the first side and second side are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the first shelf and second shelf; there is a horizontal distance between the first side and second side; and wherein: the vertical distance is different than the horizontal distance.
8 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , wherein one or more of the plurality of shelves and plurality of sides is configured with one or more vents.
9 . The organizational shell of claim 8 , wherein the one or more vents are defined by punctures, grooves, channels, or slots in the plurality of shelves or plurality of sides.
10 . The organizational shell of claim 8 , wherein one or more of the one or more vents is configured to receive a fan.
11 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of shelves and plurality of sides comprises a material that reduces wireless disruption.
12 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , further comprising one or more gaps in the plurality of shelves or plurality of sides configured to allow an antenna to pass through the organizational shell.
13 . The organizational shell of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of shelves and plurality of sides comprises an opaque material.
14 . An organizational shell system, comprising:
a base module; and one or more sub-modules configured to rest on the base module; wherein: the base module comprises an organizational shell, the organizational shell comprising:
a plurality of shelves, wherein individual shelves comprise one or more edges;
a plurality of sides, wherein individual sides comprise one or more edges;
wherein:
a first plane is defined parallel to one or more of the plurality of shelves;
a second plane is defined perpendicular to the first plane;
one or more of the plurality of sides connects individual members of the plurality of shelves by the one or more edges of individual shelves;
one or more of the plurality of sides extends from the one or more edges of individual shelves to the first plane;
one or more of the plurality of sides extends from the one or more edges of individual shelves to the second plane; and
a cavity is defined between the plurality of shelves, the plurality of sides, the first plane, and the second plane.
15 . The organizational shell system of claim 14 , wherein the one or more sub-modules includes a sub-module configured to store office supplies.
16 . The organizational shell system of claim 14 , wherein the one or more sub-modules includes a sub-module configured as a planter box.
17 . The organizational shell system of claim 14 , wherein the one or more sub-modules includes a sub-module configured as a letter holder.
18 . The organizational shell system of claim 14 , wherein:
the organizational shell of the base module is a first organizational shell; one or more sub-modules comprises a second organizational shell; and the second organizational shell is configured to nest with the first organizational shell.
19 . The organizational shell system of claim 14 , wherein individual members of the one or more sub-modules are configured to couple to the base module.
20 . The organizational shell system of claim 14 , wherein the individual members of the one or more sub-modules are configured to couple to the base module couple using one or more of screws, magnets, pins, snaps, hook and loop fasteners, sliding locks, clips, fasteners, mating surfaces, or mating members.
