  • Patent number: 8720706
    Abstract: A display stand has a base, a vertical pole having a lower end fixed to the base. The pole includes two sections having a stem projecting upward from each section. A bearing is coupled each stem of the pole. A pair of racks, each having a central tube with a bearing race fixed within a lower end contacts an outer surface of the bearings for rotation around the tube. Each rack has a generally square perimeter with rounded corners formed of wire, with a plurality of radial support members coupled between the central tube and the rounded corners. Each side of the square perimeter portion includes a pair of hooks adjacent the rounded corners to engage products to be displayed on the stand, the hooks projecting a limited distance outward below the plane of the rack square perimeter.

  • Publication number: 20130284686
    Abstract: A display intended use on a conventional pallet rack having at least two horizontal telescopically extensible tubular members, an inverted L-shaped support including a first portion adapted to engage an interior step of an existing pallet rack cross-support of a pallet rack and a second portion depending from the first portion and fixed to an end of one of the tubular members. A plurality of hooks movable along the length of and supported by each telescopically extensible pair of tubular members, the hooks being adapted to engage, directly or indirectly, an upper edge of sheet goods for suspended display within the pallet rack. Two or more adjacent telescopically extensible pairs of tubular members can be coupled together at a fixed separation distance to provide multiple rows of displayed sheet goods.

  • Patent number: 8464879
    Abstract: A display stand for sheet goods such as desk chair mats has a pair of upright side members and a base coupled to the side members. The base can have an upper surface to support a lower edge of sheet goods in a standing position. A protrusion can define an arcuate front lip along the retaining well. The arcuate front lip can be configured to impart a curvature to facilitate standing of the sheet goods. The upper surface of the base can be configured to have different elevations. A back member can be coupled to the upright side members, and can swing, slide, or both, between an open position to provide access to the sheet goods and a closed position to retain the sheet goods within the display. Signage panels can be coupled between the side members along a tie member to attract customers to the displayed goods.

  • Patent number: 8308140
    Abstract: A coupling for an end of polymer jacketed high tensile wire fencing formed by a plate having first and second edges, a slot passing through the plate perpendicular to the first and second edges, having upper and lower ends spaced from the edges, a fold in the fencing defining a bight joining a shorter portion to a longer portion of the fencing, the fold penetrating the slot, and a pin of a length greater than the distance between the upper and lower ends of the slot, the pin having an end inserted into the bight in the fold of the fencing to retain the fold of the fencing in the slot, the pin being vertically removable from the bight to quickly release the fencing from the coupling.

  • Publication number: 20090071869
    Abstract: A display having two upstanding side panels hinged to opposite vertical edges of an upstanding front panel, the side panels having inwardly folded rear edges. A foot member coupled to lower corners of the junctions of the front panel with the side panels fix the position of the side panels relative to the front panel. Tabs located along the edges of a shelf are inserted into slots located in the front panel and the side panels to fix the position of the shelf. The slots are defined by a pair of horizontal slits cut in the upstanding panels to define a band of material between the pair of slits, the band of material being displaced inwardly to form a slot for receiving a corresponding tab. A foot member can be coupled to each of the lower corners defined by the junctions of a back panel with the side panels to fix the position of the back panel relative to the side panels. Caster assemblies on downward facing surfaces of the foot members facilitate movement of the display.

  • Publication number: 20070277707
    Abstract: A system for handling rolled sheet goods includes at least two pallets with a box situated on each pallet, each box containing a plurality of rolls of sheet goods arrayed within each box so that an open central core of each roll is aligned perpendicular to the box bottom. A compression resistant member is situated adjacent to or within the open central core of some of the rolls, each compression resistant member extending from the box bottom to a plane above the roll top edge to contact a lower surface of the box top to resist vertical compression of the box that would damage the rolled sheet goods. At least one tension member can be used to couple the boxes and pallets of the system together in a vertical stack.
