Patent attributes
One embodiment of a corner shelf assembly having a shelf held securely in a horizontal position by a bracket or corner element, two support rails and two end caps. The shelf comprises a flat sheet with one corner clipped at its apex so that the shelf may be slid into a complementary slot in a bracket or corner element secured into a wall corner. The corner element is attached to two support rails held securely horizontal by the configuration of the corner piece. The support rails comprise a solid body with a narrow tongue protruding from it and running the length of the solid body. The tongues of the support rails are secured to walls having complementary openings and are further secured to the walls by fasteners. The shelf is rested upon the support rails and secured at its front by end caps that sandwich the shelf and the support rails, thus holding the shelf toward the corner and preventing it from tipping up or down. Other embodiments are described and shown.
