Abstract: A variable shelf organizer for merchandising products therefrom capable of being assembled to accommodate any shelf width and any product dimension including a substantially flat product supporting floor member having a plurality of channel-like spaces associated therewith for cooperatively receiving any one of a plurality of divider members, each divider member being selectively engageable with the channel-like spaces to form any number of segregated product guide channels for arranging products therebetween, the width of each such product guide channel being selectively adjustable by engaging the respective divider members forming the same with different pairs of the channel-like spaces thereby varying the distance between any two adjacent divider members.

Abstract: A cell for coalescing oil droplets dispersed in a water emulsion including an elongated perforated tube core into which the emulsion is injected, layers of oleophilic plastic covered metal mat wound about the core through which the emulsion is forced to pass, the fibers of the metal mat being covered by oleophilic plastic such as vinyl, acrylic, polypropylene, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, the metal being in the form of layers of expanded metal or metal fibers, either aluminum or stainless steel. In manufacturing the cell a helix wound wire is formed around the cylindrical plastic coated metal to retain it in place and resist pressure drop of fluid flowing through the metal fibers. In addition, the preferred arrangement includes the use of an outer sleeve formed of a mat of fibrous material such as polyester fibers, acrylic fibers, modacrylic fibers and mixtures thereof.
