Abstract
A garden equipment support rack has a fixed frame in combination with a removable basket. The fixed frame has a first single wire element that is bent to form a basket support rack. The basket has a front, a back, and two opposite side walls. At the upper edges of the side walls, there is a continuous peripheral wire that functions as a flange portion by which the basket is removably supported on the basket support rack. The basket is for containing such assorted things as trowels, garden gloves, small pots, packets of seed and fertilizer, and so on, and is easily freed from the basket support rack for transport. The fixed frame also has several wire elements that are bent and arranged to form a pair of garden tool support assemblies. Each garden tool support assembly can removably support one or several garden tools. The form of the fixed frame generally permits it to nest with additional fixed frames, thereby reducing shipping costs and permitting a greater number of fixed frames to be stocked in inventory and displayed on store shelves.
