Patent attributes
A shelving system attached to an overhead surface that includes a shelving frame pivotally connected to a number of supports that are attached to the overhead surface. A number of hanging shelves are pivotally connected to the shelving frame. One end of the shelving frame can be disconnected from the supports and lowered toward the ground. The other end of the shelving frame rotates with respect to the supports. As the shelving frame is lowered, the hanging shelves rotate with respect to the shelving frame so that the shelves remain horizontal, parallel, and level with the ground. As a result, the storage area provided by the shelves is easily accessible, and the items placed thereon remain on the shelves as the shelving frame is returned to the overhead position.
