Patent attributes
The disclosure provides a rack system for securing articles. The rack system can include a longitudinal elongate rail traversing a longitudinal direction, and a lateral rail adjustably mounted to the elongate rail. The lateral rail can be orthogonally oriented (or obliquely oriented) with respect to the longitudinal elongate rail. The lateral rail can be configured to be mounted at a plurality of longitudinal positions along the longitudinal rail. The rack can further include one or more upwardly extending brackets that are adjustably mounted to the lateral rail. The upwardly extending bracket(s) can be mounted at one or more lateral positions along the lateral rail. The lateral rail and the upwardly extending bracket(s) cooperate to form a concavity for at least partially surrounding a portion of an article to hold the article in position when mounted to the system.
