Abstract
A necktie storage rack has an elongated U-shaped hosuing mounted horizontally. An elongated slide with an external shape complementary to the inside of the housing can slide longitudinally in the housing from a retracted position essentially completely within the housing to an extended position with about half of the slide extending forwardly from the housing. Three posts extend downwardly from the slide and a wheel is rotatably mounted on each of the posts. The wheels are designed to elastically snap onto the posts. A number of radially extending legs on the wheel are used for hanging neckties. The entire assembly can be fabricated of injection molded plastic and connected together without any fasteners except screws for supporting the tie rack in a closet. The back of the housing can be secured to a wall and a forward portion of the housing suspended from a closet hanger bar by a pair of side-by-side clamps fastened together by a single screw.
