Abstract: A portable display stand for the display of merchandise having a hinged vertical support panel subassembly, including top and bottom panel segments, to reduce size and promote portability. Slideable pin locks slide out from a disengaged position and lock in the engaged position, to stabilize the top and bottom panel segments relative to each other, for assembly. A central post with attachment rings allows for attachment of 2, 3, or 4 support panel subassemblies arranged radially around the central post.

Abstract: A portable display stand for removable attachment of fixtures for the display of merchandise is disclosed. The display stand features a hinged vertical support panel sub-assembly, including top and bottom panel segments, to reduce size and promote portability. Slideable pin locks within top or bottom braces for the top and bottom panel segments slide out from a disengaged position and lock in the engaged position, stabilizing the top and bottom panel segments relative to each other, for assembly. The hinged connection between the braces for the top and bottom panel segments promotes fast alignment during assembly. Assembly of the vertical support panel sub-assembly and the first and second leg sub-assemblies occurs without tools. The display stand disassembles into three (maximum) portable sub-assemblies that may be transported in a carrying case, and may be reassembled without tools in less than a minute.

Abstract: A security label system includes a security label, a protective label, and a means for applying said labels to an item using an applicator workstation. Preferably, said security label system inexpensively and readily identifies and protects compact disc multimedia from theft or damage occurring during sale or rental. Said security label system includes tamper-evident, non-transferable security labels and a reliable means of identification that does not damage or interfere with delicate digital data. In particular, a security label system readily informs merchants if merchandise has been tampered with.

Abstract: A display case includes separately formed components: (1) a casing which defines an internal cavity having an open end, and (2) a latching closure device with an integrated living hinge. The two components are made of different plastic materials, wherein the different materials have properties advantageously suited for each component. Preferably, the living hinge and closure device is made of a resilient plastic, while the casing is made of a substantially transparent plastic through which the interior of the casing and its contents can be viewed.

Abstract: A display case for jacketed cassettes includes a casing that defines an internal cavity and a protrusion that projects into the cavity. The casing provides an opening that permits the slidable withdrawal of a cassette from the display case in a well-defined, unique and predetermined direction. The protrusion is attached to the lid of the casing that is movable between open and closed positions and is engaged with the jacket on closing the lid to prevent the movement of the jacket in the direction of withdrawal of the cassette. Locking means keep the lid in closed position once engagement with the jacket has been achieved. The display case of the invention permits the cassette and the entire, unaltered advertising wrap or jacket to be conveniently displayed by the retailer and ultimately transported by the renter or user who chooses the video tape for viewing.
