Hidden pot holder

Abstract

The Hidden Pot Holder invention creates a new aspect to the storage of kitchen utensils. The Hidden Pot Holder stores kitchen utensils on a vertical plane instead of the traditional storage on a horizontal plane. The utensils hang from hooks attached to the plane. This method of storage shows each individual utensil, and does not allow for some utensils to become hidden under other utensils, which commonly occurs when kitchen utensils are stored on top of each other on a horizontal plane. It also allows for easy access to the utensil because the Hidden Pot Holder eliminates the need to lift up other kitchen utensils in order to access the utensil that it rests upon.

Description

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The purpose of the Hidden Pot Holder is to make the storage of kitchen utensils simpler. The invention allows kitchen utensils such as pots, pans, etc. to be stored in a more accessible and organized way. The invention solves the problem of accessing pots and pans on the bottom of a large pile of other kitchen utensils. The invention also hides the stored utensils in a wall cavity behind concealing doors.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The Hidden Pot Holder contains two extendable and retractable flat planar surfaces of which hooks are permanently attached to, which allows kitchen pots and pans and other utensils to be hung. The flat planar surfaces on which the pots and other utensils hang can be retracted into a wall cavity becoming hidden behind cabinet doors. The two flat planar surfaces are attached to the vertical opposite sides of a rectangular cut wall cavity by two ball bearing full-extension sliding tracks for each surface. For each surface one track is attached to the bottom area of the surface and its adjacent side of the wall cavity and the other track is attached to the top area of the surface and its adjacent side of the wall cavity. At the side of each flat planar surface that faces the area of which the cabinet doors are placed there is an attached handle, that when pulled allows the board holding the pots and other utensils to be extended out of the wall cavity. This invention is used in such a way that when extended out of the wall cavity pots and pans and other utensils can be hung or taken off the hooks and similarly when the invention is retracted into the wall cavity the pots and pans become hidden inside the wall cavity behind cabinet doors.
