Abstract: A bucket caddy stably holds a bucket or container above a horizontal support surface or ground for easier access to the contents of the bucket or container. The bucket caddy has a retainer with slots into which at least three legs are movably joined. The legs each have a shelf surface and a hook (U-shaped or crimped) or upstanding wall disposed at their proximal ends. When splayed apart, the shelf surfaces point radially inwardly toward the retainer with their top surfaces in a common plane onto which the bottom of the bucket may be positioned. The hooks receive straps or elastic bands, each of which has a fastener at its opposite end adapted to join a portion of a rim of the bucket. Length-adjustable means are associated with straps that are not elastic. Alternatively, belts or screws provide three point connection between the legs and the sidewall of the bucket.

Abstract: A system of interconnecting structural components for supporting and forming suspended concrete slabs that allow removal of form panels without disturbing the slab support posts (shores). Additional features of the system accommodate changes in suspended slab thickness, horizontal slab dimensions that are not multiples of the basic component dimensions, slab edge cantilevered form panels, attachment to walls and remote manipulation of form panels from the floor below using an erection staff. The primary system components are panels, support posts, telescopic beams, adjustable hanger connections, wall hangers, wall beams, raking shore assemblies and erection/stripping staffs. Form panels are directly supported by the shores without the use of an intermediate member (usually a beam) that is common practice in the concrete forming industry. The system reduces the number of required components that in turn reduces the capital cost to the user and improves his labor efficiency and quality of the concrete surface.

Abstract: A support system for the mounting/suspension/elevation of a commercial projector is disclosed. The projector support grasps the projector to be mounted at one of its surfaces (typically, the bottom surface) through the use of two support arms. The support arms are affixed to the projector surface though mounting screws or other equivalent fastening mechanisms. The support arms each feature an adjustment slot which runs substantially the entire length of the arms. The presence of the two slotted arms allows for a countless array of scissoring arrangements for the support arms. This allows for interconnection with/mounting of the vast majority of commercial projectors (which invariably feature differing constellations of mounting holes). The projector support also employs a primary mount to facilitate swiveling/positioning of the projector so that the unit is effectually oriented for projection.

Abstract: A system for creating a floating sub-top into an open space of a counter upon which tiles may be applied. The float characteristic of the sub-top eliminates cracking and breaking of tiled corner pieces and grout due to expansion of the sub-top. Used with the system is a support member attachable to vertical upstanding walls of the counter on the ends of the walls or on the inner surfaces; and attachable to the sub-top.

Abstract: Knockdown furniture including a table with flat, interlocking, planar parts assembled or disassembled without tools or fasteners. Planar legs oriented in radially, spaced apart, mutually abutting relation upon erection, compressively grasp and support an elevated top. Each leg has a foot touching the ground, an integral, upwardly, outwardly diverging arm for grasping the top, a vertically upright protrusion of gradually decreasing width, and a junction region from which these parts emanate. A planar lock includes slots through which the protrusions pass when the furniture is press-fitted together. Lock notches aligned with the slots concurrently engage the arms. Each protrusion decreases in width, with the outside of each protrusion forming a ramp, and the inside forming an elongated, vertical edge. The wedging action resulting from slot-to-ramp engagement locks the legs together, with the complimentary protrusion edges firmly abutting one another and with the top compressively grasped by the arms.

Abstract: A table includes a support leg having an elongated channel extending longitudinally along at least a portion of the support leg and opening laterally outwardly from said support leg. The channel has an open end at a top of the support leg. In a preferred embodiment, a catch member extends across at least a portion of said channel and a worksurface is supported by the top of said support leg. In another aspect, the worksurface has a cutout shaped to receive at least a portion of the top of the support leg with at least a portion of the channel nested in the cutout. In a preferred embodiment, the support leg includes a socket that is shaped to receive a portion of the worksurface. A method of routing a utility line on a table is also provided.

Abstract: Knockdown furniture comprising flat, interlocking, planar parts assembled or disassembled without tools or fasteners. A flat top is supported above ground. A plurality of identical, generally C-shaped legs operatively oriented in radially, spaced apart relation upon erection, support and elevate the top. Each leg comprises a foot touching the ground, an arm for grasping the top, and a wedging section of varying width that is oriented generally perpendicularly. A planar lock shaped like and parallel with the top engages the leg wedging regions. The legs penetrate slots defined in the lock and are thus captivated. Each leg intermediate section may vary in width, with the outside of each intermediate leg section comprising a ramp, and the inside forming a complementary leg edge. The wedging action resulting from slot-to-ramp engagement locks the parts together, with the complimentary leg edges firmly abutting one another.

Abstract: A utility bracket designed for use in modular office arrangements wherein planar walls are used to form office cubicles is substantially planar and has a configuration, such as triangular, to fit within a corner formed by intersecting walls. Two of the legs of the triangle, for example, each has an array of a plurality of spaced U-shaped support member which fit down over the top of the walls to support the bracket in the cubicle corner. The support members are offset relative to each other along the lengths of the corresponding legs so that when two or more brackets are used to fill corners at, for example, a four corner intersection, the support members of two adjacent brackets interdigitate.

Abstract: An improved fastening structure for fastening a table top (1) and a leg frame (2) includes an anchor element (11) fixedly attached to the table top (1), and a displacement element (22) coupled to the leg frame (2) and movable thereon for engaging with the anchor element (11) through a fastener (3) such that the table top (1) is detachable from the leg frame (2) to form a smaller size to facilitate storing and transportation.
