Abstract

See full text

A rail-mounted hanging file arrangement includes a generally horizontally elongated rail which is supported in upwardly spaced relationship from the worksurface so as to extend generally along but above the rear edge thereof. The rail defines therein a longitudinally elongated slot which opens forwardly of the rail, and a file hanging frame is releasably attached to the rail at substantially any position therealong so that the frame is carried entirely by the rail and projects rearwardly a small distance therefrom to permit conventional hanging type files to be stored just rearwardly of the rail adjacent the rear edge of the worksurface. The file hanging frame includes a pair of generally parallel side legs which are spaced so as to permit a plurality of hanging files to be suspended therebetween, and the hang tabs provided on opposite ends of the files can engage the side legs. These side legs of the file hanging frame at their front ends fixedly join to front legs which project downwardly and also slope inwardly in converging relationship with one another. The front legs at the lower ends thereof respectively join to securing legs of short extent which are insertable into the slot of the support rail to fixedly but releasably secure the frame to this support rail.
