Abstract
A customizable, reliable, and secure desktop organizer is provided having a base, a first receptacle, and a second receptacle. Each of the receptacles includes a set of sockets that are configured to receive one or more magnets. The magnets of the receptacles are equidistantly spaced apart from one another at the same distance as the magnets disposed within the base. Thus, when the receptacles are brought into proximity with the base, the magnets of the receptacles and the base are magnetically attracted to one another, securing the receptacles to the base. Because the magnets of the base are spaced apart at the same distance as the magnets of the receptacles, when coupled to one another, the receptacles are automatically aligned into proper position with respect to the base.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention

This invention relates, generally, to desktop organizers. More specifically, it relates to modular desktop organizers.


2. Brief Description of the Prior Art

Hundreds of millions of people around the world spend a substantial portion of their day sitting behind a desk, table, or even standing behind a workbench performing various tasks. For example, a person in a typical office environment would be required to use and interact with several office supplies, some of which are small and easily lost, such as binder and paper clips. These office supplies are easily misplaced, increasing the frustration and inefficiency of the work being performed and associated costs. Further, as time passes, the once clean and organized desk gets bombarded with clutter with no practical or efficient way to organize the clutter.


It is desirable for workers and users of desks, tables, benches, and the like to be able to work as efficiently and smoothly as possible. This means that the supplies needed to perform any given task should be organized and accessible so that the supplies are ready to be used at a moment's notice. In response to this need, various companies have developed a wide range of organizers, which have unsuccessfully attempted to solve this problem.


Previous attempts, such as the UGMONK GATHER, include an elongated base having a plurality of grooves disposed within the base. Pegs located in the bottom of and extending outward from a container are designed to be received within the grooves cut into the base. However, this design has a number of drawbacks in which, first and foremost, is the slidable grid system. While the sliding grid system allows for some limited customizability, it also provides for a less stable and productive product. Small movement or shifts when removing and placing items within the containers can easily cause the containers to shift and slide out of an alignment set by the user-thus requiring constant readjustment. Further, if the organizational system were to be accidentally knocked over, the pegs of each of the containers would fall out of the grooves, requiring a user to reposition each of the individual containers along with the misplaced office supplies.


Further, the pegs protruding from the bottom of the containers can break easily. Because the pegs protrude and do not sit flush with the container, the likelihood that one or more of the pegs would be damaged is increased. If such breakage were to occur, the entire container would be rendered non-functional for its intended purpose. Additionally, repeated removal and placement of the container, or even the routine pressure and stress associated with the normal use of the container, subjects the pegs to increased stress, which can weaken the pegs and eventually cause the pegs to break.


Accordingly, what is needed is a modular desktop organizer that allows for secure and reliable attachment of receptacles onto a base. However, in view of the art considered as a whole at the time the present invention was made, it was not obvious to those of ordinary skill in the field of this invention how the shortcomings of the prior art could be overcome.


The present invention may address one or more of the problems and deficiencies of the prior art discussed above. However, it is contemplated that the invention may prove useful in addressing other problems and deficiencies in a number of technical areas. Therefore, the claimed invention should not necessarily be construed as limited to addressing any of the particular problems or deficiencies discussed herein.


BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The long-standing but heretofore unfulfilled need for a modular desk organizer that allows customization of receptacles when securely attached to a base is now met by a new, useful, and nonobvious invention.


The novel structure includes a modular desktop organizer that comprises a base having a top surface configured to support a plurality of receptacles. A plurality of magnets is disposed within the base and reside within a first plane. Each of the magnets of the plurality of magnets is equidistantly spaced apart and positioned proximal to the top surface.


A first receptacle having a first shape and a first set of sockets disposed within the first receptacle residing within a second plane is provided to interact with a base magnetically. At least two complementary magnets, ferromagnetic, or paramagnetic materials, are disposed within the first set of sockets respectfully. When the first receptacle is brought into proximity of the base, at least two of the plurality of magnets of the base are magnetically coupled to the at least two complementary magnets of the first receptacle, thereby securing the first receptacle to the base. The distance between the at least two complementary magnets of the first receptacle is equal to the distance between two magnets within the base, such that when the first receptacle is magnetically coupled to the base, the horizontal and lateral movements of the first receptacle with respect to the base is restricted.


A second receptacle having a first shape that is different than a second shape and the second set of sockets disposed within the second receptacle residing within a third plane. In an embodiment, the second receptacle may be the same size and shape as the first receptacle. At least two complementary magnets are disposed within the second set of sockets, such that when the second receptacle is brought into proximity of the base, at least two of the plurality of magnets of the base are magnetically coupled to the at least two complementary magnets of the second receptacle, thereby securing the second receptacle to the base. The distance between the at least two complementary magnets of the second receptacle is equal to the distance between two magnets within the base, such that when the second receptacle is magnetically coupled to the base, the horizontal and lateral movements of the second receptacle with respect to the base is restricted.


In an embodiment, the alignment of the at least two complementary magnets of each of the first and the second receptacles when positioned over the plurality of magnets of the base allows for the biasing of each of the first and the second receptacle into a correct position with respect to the base.


In yet another embodiment, the second receptacle further includes a first portion residing parallel to the first plane when the second receptacle is secured to the base. A second portion extends away from the first portion toward a terminal end. A third portion extends away from each of the first and the second portions. Angle α is formed by the intersection of the first portion and the second portion, while angle β is formed between the third portion and the first portion. A retention mechanism is disposed at the terminal end of the third portion and is configured to prevent an object disposed on a ledge formed by the third portion, the second portion, and the retention mechanism from unintentionally being disposed away from the second receptacle.


The location of the first and the second receptacle is interchangeable when the first and the second receptacles are coupled to the base allowing for various configurations of the modular desktop organizer.


These and other important objects, advantages, and features of the invention will become clear as this disclosure proceeds.


The invention accordingly comprises the features of construction, combination of elements, and arrangement of parts that will be exemplified in the disclosure set forth hereinafter and the scope of the invention will be indicated in the claims.

As used in this specification and the appended claims, the term “or” is generally employed in its sense including “and/or” unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.


Referring to FIGS. 1-8, the modular desktop organizer 5 (hereinafter “organizer”) comprises base 10 and receptacle 12. Base 10 and receptacle 12 may be made from any material that a person of ordinary skill in the art would use to provide structural support, rigidity, and reliability including, but not limited to: acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), epoxy resins, rubber, latex, polyvinylchloride (PVC), vinyl chloride, thermoplastics, ceramic, glass, granite, marble, metal, metal alloys, textiles, or other suitable materials. In an embodiment, base 10 and receptacle 12 may each be monolithically formed and/or manufactured through injection molding, 3D printing, metal casting, carving, or other suitable manufacturing methods known in the art.


As depicted in FIGS. 2-4, base 10 has a substantially elongated shape having a flat top surface 14 and a flat bottom surface 16 with base body 18 extending therebetween. Base 20 may have other geometrical shapes where top surface 14 and bottom surface 16 may be formed in the shape of squares, triangles, ovals, polygons, or other geometrical shapes. Top surface 14 defines a plurality of base sockets 20, adjacent base sockets 20 are equidistantly spaced apart from one another. Each base socket 20 is sized to receive and retain base magnet 22. Preferably, base magnets 22 sit flush with top surface 14, however, in an embodiment, each base magnet 22 may be positioned proximal to top surface 14 and may be disposed within base body 18, such that base magnets 22 are concealed within base body 18 and are not accessible and/or visible through top surface 14.


One or more receptacles 12 are configured to magnetically couple to base 10. In an embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5-7, receptacle 12 may be secured to base 10 using fasteners, magnets, screws, nails, clips, adhesive, or other suitable material or structure that is configured to secure receptacle 12 to base 10.


As depicted in FIGS. 5-9, receptacle 12 includes receptacle body 26 configured retain objects within cavity 28, or objects may reside on ledge 29. In an embodiment, cavity 28 may include partitions 30 to provide further organization. Partitions 30 may extend the entire length of body 26 with cavity 28 or may partially extend therein. For example, in an office setting, receptacle 12 may be configured to hold note pads, cell phone, paper clips, binder clips, paper, pencil, pens, or any other supplies routinely used in an office setting. In a workbench setting, such as a home garage, receptacle 12 may be configured to hold nuts, bolts, screws, washers, nails, screwdrivers, rachets, batteries, or any other objects typically found in a workbench setting. When organizer 5 includes two or more receptacles 12 positioned on the same body 10, a user increases the number and variety of objects that organizer 5 is configured to hold.


Receptacle body 26 includes one or more receptacle sockets 25 disposed within bottom portion 27 of receptacle body 26. Each receptacle socket 25 is configured to receive receptacle magnet 23. In an embodiment, receptacle magnet 23 and/or base magnet 22 may be formed of neodymium iron boron, samarium cobalt, alnico, ferrite, steel, stainless steel, iron, or any other object known in the art to produce or be attracted to a magnetic field. In an embodiment, receptacle magnet 23 or base magnet 22 may be any mineral, element, or material that is at least partially formed from at least one ferromagnetic or paramagnetic material and has magnetic properties. In an embodiment, receptacle magnet 23 and/or base magnet 22 has a gauss value between 50 and 1500 gauss, such that receptacle 12 is not easily knocked off base 10 when it is magnetically secured thereto, while not being so strong that a human would be unable to decouple receptacle 12 from base 10.


Receptacle magnet 23 may protrude from bottom portion 27 of receptacle body 26 or may sit flush. In embodiments including two or more receptacle sockets 25, the adjacent receptacle magnets 23 are equidistantly spaced apart from one another and positioned in the same or substantially the same configuration and spacing as base magnets 22 of base 10, thereby allowing for magnetic coupling when receptacle magnets 23 of receptacle 12 are brought into proximity with base magnets 22 of base 10. In an embodiment, receptacle body 26 includes two sets of lateral walls 29 in an orthogonal relationship with one another. The first set includes first receptacle wall 29a opposite second receptacle wall 29b, and the second set includes third receptacle wall 29c opposite fourth receptacle wall 29d.


The complementary spacing and configuration of base magnets 22 of base 10 and receptacle magnets 23 of receptacle 24 facilitate proper alignment of receptacle 12 with respect to base 10. When receptacle magnets 23 of receptacle 12 are magnetically coupled with base magnets 22 of base 10, the magnetic forces urge the receptacle 12 into proper alignment with base 10. In an embodiment, base magnets 22 of base 10 and receptacle magnets 23 of receptacle 12 may be secured within their respective sockets 20, 25 by press-fitting, adhesive, or other methods known in the art to secure base magnets 22 within base sockets 20 and receptacle magnets 23 within receptacle sockets 25.


In an embodiment, receptacles 12 may be arranged in several configurations by replacing, swapping, and/or removing receptacles 12 from base 10, and then recoupling receptacles 12 to base 10 in a different configuration. These new configurations may be based on user preferences and needs at the time. In an embodiment, base 10 may be coupled to a single receptacle 12 or base 10 may be coupled to a plurality of receptacles 12. As depicted in FIG. 7, an embodiment of receptacle 12 is shown having cutout 32 designed to provide easy access to an object residing within receptacle 12. Cut out 32 allows for ease of removal by providing access to a portion of the object within receptacle 12 by the user, thereby facilitating the removal of the object.


An embodiment of receptacle 12 is depicted in FIGS. 8-10. In such an embodiment receptacle 12 is configured to receive a cell phone, book, paper, or the like using support channel 29, such as an easel-type element, slot, or ledge. Receptacle 12 is formed, having first portion 34 residing within plane 42, while second 36 portion and third 38 portion are bent out of plane 42 at corresponding angles α and β, respectively. As shown in FIG. 10, angle α is less than angle β and formed between first portion 34 and second portion 36. Angle β is greater than angle α and formed between first portion 34 and third portion 38. When receptacle 12 is positioned adjacent to top surface 16 of base 10, first portion 34 is parallel with top surface 16 of base 10. Second portion 36 is configured to provide support to object residing within support channel 29 and extends away from the first portion 34 at a predetermined distance. Third portion 38 extends away from both first portion 34 and second portion 36 and forms the bottom portion of ledge 29 for receiving an object. Disposed at the terminal end of third portion 38 is retention mechanism 40. Retention mechanism 40 at least partially extends the entire distance of the terminal end of the third portion 38 and is configured to prevent the object from sliding out of channel 29 and off of third portion 38.
