As attorney for the inventor of the innovative Under Cabinet Culinary Instrument Rack, we are currently seeking manufacturing companies to license, purchase patent rights or enter into a royalty agreement for this timely invention.

The Under Cabinet Culinary Instrument Rack provides an eating utensil and cutlery storage rack that installs under a cabinet, a good location for constant usage. It can be mounted to the left, to the right or directly over the sink. There are several advantages. Stowing the rack in the undercabinet recess keeps it out of the way as well as out of sight but still in a place that requires a minimum of movement or effort to access. The rack is secured in stowed position by a snap in lock that is pulled to release and is suspended from swing down hinges installed under the cabinet. The present invention therefore provides not only a novel and elegant solution to one problem of kitchen storage but represents a significant improvement in the overall working and living environment of one of the most important rooms in the home.

Objects of the present invention:

Now for the first time the Under Cabinet Culinary Instrument Rack is being made available to millions of potential users. The low manufacturing cost of the product is also of major importance.

The following pictures are meant to display possible physical characteristics of the present invention and are not to be taken in a limiting sense. It is understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
