Shower caddy

A hamper (10) includes a base container portion (11), a shroud (12), and a cover (13). The base container portion includes a bottom surface (14) and a front wall (15), a rear wall (18) and opposed side walls (16, 17) extending upwardly from the bottom surface (14) to form an open top defined by a peripheral upper rim (19). The shroud (12) rests on the rim (19) to strengthen the same and is attached to the side walls (16, 17). The cover (13) is pivotally attached to the shroud (12). Vent apertures (27, 29) are provided in recessed arcuate walls (26, 30) positioned beneath the front wall (15) and the rear wall (18).

Storage bin

A storage bin system (10) includes a plurality of storage bins (11) which can be stacked upon each other or nested within each other. Each bin (11) includes a bottom surface (12) with opposed side walls (13, 14) and a rear wall (15) extending upwardly therefrom to form an upper rim (18). For stacking purposes, sockets (31, 32, 33) are formed near the top of the side walls (13, 14) and the rear wall (15) to be engaged by foot members (22, 23, 24) formed near the bottom of side walls (13, 14) and the rear wall (15). Each bin (11) has a generally open front defined by a short wall (16) having an upper lip (17) thereon. The foot members (22, 23, 24) are configured so as to readily receive caster assemblies (26) should it be desired to render the bin system (10) mobile. For nesting purposes, the side walls (13, 14) are provided with ribs (41 ) which, when the bins (11) are nested, rest on the upper rim (18) of the bin (11) below while at the same time the bottom surface (12) of the bin (11) above rests on the lip (17) of the bin (11) below.

Storage bin system

A shower caddy (10) includes a wire portion (11) and a plastic portion (12). The wire portion (11) is formed with upper foot wires (45, 46) to engage grooves (73) in the plastic portion (12) and with a rear support wire (51) to engage lock tabs (74) in the plastic portion (12) so that the plastic portion (12) may be removably carried by the wire portion (11). The wire portion (11) has two spaced apart wires (14,15) interconnected by a loop wire (16) to engage the top of a neck pipe of a shower head. A bracket (17) is engageable with and slidable along the wires (14, 15) to engage the bottom of the neck pipe. The wire portion (11) also includes adjacent spaced-apart shelf wires (35, 36, 37, 38) with two adjacent shelf wires (36, 37) having opposed arcuate portions (41, 42) formed therein to hold a bottle in an inverted position therebetween. The plastic portion (12) includes soap trays (61, 62) formed therein. The soap trays (61, 62) have outwardly flaring side walls (64, 67) and bottom surfaces (65, 68). The bottom surface (68) of the soap tray (62) is sloped upwardly from the rear of the side walls (67) to the front of the side walls (67) so that soap in the soap tray (62) can be readily removed therefrom.
