Abstract
A vertically adjustable holder for securing at least one item, such as a video cassette recorder (VCR), above a television set, or for securing above a video monitor at least one article, such as a printer. It is of knockdown construction for economy of storage and transport. The holder includes: a flat base that fits underneath the television set or video monitor, vertical member means for vertical adjustability, and a horizontal platform located above the television set or video monitor, upon which at least one item is held. Each vertical member means includes a lower piece and an upper piece. Vertical adjustment may be achieved by a telescoping action of each lower piece with its respective upper piece, or by the use of at least one sleeve that is affixed to the lower (upper) piece and through which the upper (lower) piece engages with a close sliding fit. In other disclosed embodiments, a vertical assembly is comprised of at least one lower vertical element attached to a base, a horizontal element connected to the lower vertical element, and an upper vertical element connected to the horizontal element and extending upward from the horizontal element. The platform has at least one upper vertical-element-engaging means in which the platform vertically adjusts on the vertical element.
