These and other more detailed and specic objects will be disclosed in the course of the fo1low ing specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Fig. 1 is an elevational view of my improved parts rack fastened to an overhead support, and with parts broken away to disclose certain details of the construction.
Fig. 2 is a, sectional viewvalong the line 2-2 in Fig. 1.
Referring now more particularly and by reference characters to the drawing, myl improved parte; auch as screws.
partsrackv comprises a rotary member or rotatable support indicated generally at I0, and a fixed support or bracket II by which the rack may be secured beneath a shelf I2 or other support suri face, such as a, wall, ceiling or the like.
The rotary member has ends I3 of square cross section forming at each end four mounting surfaces I4, and between said ends the center of the member is turned round forming a trunnion or pivot portion I5. This member I may be readily and inexpensively made of wood and with the extremities of the squared ends I3 turned oil nicely,

The jars 26 thus are supported in two rows, and generally radially with respect to the rotary axis of the member Ill, and so that by rotating the member in the bracket I I, any selected jar may be brought down to a depending or bottom position and there readily unscrewed to remove or replace small parts in the jar. Inspection of the contents of all the jars may be made also by rotating the assembly, and the screw 20 may be adjusted so that, while it is easyto turn, the rack will stay in any position to which it is adjusted. It will be apparent that the rack permits the segregation and storage of a great number of different parts in a comparatively small space and in a neat and practical manner.
It is understood that suitable modications may be made in the structure as disclosed, provided such modiiication's come within the spirit and scope of the appended claims. Having now therefore fully illustrated and described my invention, what I claim to be new and desire to protect by Letters Patent is:
