Abstract: An RF shielding device for mobile devices includes a conductive grid having horizontal and vertical wire traces in electrical contact with each other; a conductive trace disposed around the perimeter of the conductive grid, the conductive trace being in electrical contact with both ends of each of the horizontal and vertical wire traces; a first insulating film disposed on a top surface of the conductive grid; and a second insulating film disposed on a bottom surface of the conductive grid and the conductive trace. The first insulating film and the second insulating film are of a transparent material. The first and second insulating films are transparent, thus allowing viewing of the display of a mobile device on which the RF shielding device is disposed. The vertical and horizontal wire traces are spaced to form a grid that is opaque to signals in the frequency ranges utilized for mobile communication.

Abstract: A garment hanger according to the invention is provided with at least one clamp comprised of a pair of jaw members. At least one of the jaw members has a pivoting jaw end.

Abstract: An anti-slip hanger is made of a molded first type of plastic which is relatively hard and slippery. The first type of plastic is molded into a hanger having a plurality of recesses, each recess being provided with at least one throughbore. Plastic inserts are molded from a second type of plastic which is relatively soft and not slippery. The inserts are sized to fit within the recesses and each insert is provided with at least one nub which is dimensioned to frictionally engage the at least one throughbore. The hangers are assembled by inserting the inserts into the recesses and pressing until the nubs engages the throughbores.

Abstract: A top indicating means for a hanger having a metal hook includes two mounting portions and an indicator. Each of the mounting portions includes a base defining a curved channel, engagement structure to couple the mounting portions together, and preferably alignment structure for aligning the mounting portions relative to each other. Each of the mounting portions also includes an indicator support having a web and locking structure for locking the indicator on the web. In use, the mounting portions are positioned on either side of the upper portion of the metal hook of the hanger and locked together. The indicator is then pushed over the top of the adjacent web portions and locked thereon.

Abstract: An article hanger including a body having at least one clamp. The clamp has first and second jaw members with opposed first and second gripping pads, respectively. The first gripping pad includes a first gripping surface that has a relief structure formed by projections that have a depth between 0.01 mm and 0.5 mm (and most preferably between 0.01 mm and 0.25 mm). The second gripping pad includes a second gripping surface that is substantially smooth. The projections of the relief structure may have pointed ends or planar end surfaces, and may be part of a texture or pattern (e.g., a pattern of cross-hatched grooves) that is imparted to the first gripping surface. The gripping pads of the jaw members are integrally formed therewith preferably with the same thermoplastic material or other suitable material. In the preferred embodiment, the hanger body is integrally formed together with at least one jaw member of the clamp(s) and its gripping pad.

Abstract: A garment hanger system including a hook member, a hanger body and an information indicator mounted on the hanger body. The hanger body includes a reinforcing rib section disposed adjacent a mounting structure that receives the hook member. The information indicator is adapted to mount around the hook member and detachably interlock with the reinforcing rib section. The information indicator includes one or more walls defining a top opening and a hollow cavity. Preferably, the end of the hook member passes through the top opening such that the indictor can slide down the hook member. The sidewalls of the indicator are preferably adapted, for example, with locking nibs, to detachably interlock to the reinforcing rib section of the hanger body.

Abstract: A hanger according to the invention includes a cross member with a centrally located hook. A web is formed between the hook and the cross member and is adapted to receive a conventional indicator. The web includes a rib, followed by a valley, followed by a plateau. According to the invention, the rib is beveled at the top and a notch is provided in the web adjacent the top of the rib. The indicator is easily attached and removed from the top of the rib. Removal can be effected by inserting a fingernail into the notch and leveraging the top of the indicator.

Abstract: A hanger according to the invention includes a cross member with a centrally located hook. A web is formed between the hook and the cross member and is adapted to receive a conventional indicator. The web includes a rib, followed by a valley, followed by a ramp, followed by a plateau. According to the invention, the rib is beveled at the one end and a notch is provided in the web adjacent the beveled end of the rib, the notch extending from the rib to the ramp or to the plateau. The indicator is easily removed from the rib by pressing it into the notch, then sliding it off the web.

Abstract: A hanger has a body, a hook extending therefrom, and at least one clamp coupled thereto. The clamp includes a pair of opposing jaw members that are provided with slots extending through peripheral walls of the jaw member, and a gripping pad having T-shaped lateral extensions, the necks of which are extended through the slots, and the heads of which hold against the back surface of the jaw member to prevent the gripping pad from falling off the jaw member. The back surface of the clamping member includes wall areas defining wells in which the heads of the T-shaped lateral extensions are captured and substantially surrounded. By sizing the wells properly, the T-shaped extensions are easily slipped through the slots and into the wells, but it becomes difficult to remove the gripping pad from the jaw via a finger purchase.

Abstract: A mail slot door immobilizer for immobilizing a mail slot door within a main door, including an interior portion located on an interior side of the mail slot door and overlapping the mail slot door and the main door, and an exterior portion located on an exterior side of the mail slot door and overlapping the mail slot door and the main door. A fastener removably fastens the interior portion to the exterior portion to clamp the mail slot door and the main door between the interior and exterior portions and to prevent movement of the mail slot door with respect to the main door.

Abstract: A folding trailer is described including a wheeled first frame portion having a tongue secured thereto which extends forwardly therefrom for connection to a hitch adapter which is mounted on the hitch of the an all-terrain vehicle. A second frame portion is pivotally secured to the rearward end of the wheeled frame portion and a rear frame portion is pivotally secured to the rearward end of the second frame portion in such a manner that it may be pivotally moved upwardly from a horizontally disposed position on the rearward end of the second frame portion to an upwardly extending position. The rear frame portion may be folded onto the second frame portion with those frame portions being folded upon the wheeled frame portion. The trailer may then be pivotally moved upwardly and secured to the rack of the all-terrain vehicle.

Abstract: A clamp-type garment hanger defined by a pair of opposed jaw members between which a garment is hung. The opposed jaw members have gripping members and opposed gripping surfaces. The gripping members, opposed gripping surfaces and jaw members of one jaw member are formed from the same material, which may include either polystyrene, polypropylene, polyethylene, styrene-butadiene copolymers and blends, or polycarbonates. The other jaw member has bonded thereto an elastomer material for gripping the garment. To increase the coefficient of friction of the opposed gripping surfaces, the surfaces may be treated by engraving, acid etching, electrical discharge machining, vapor honing, or sandblasting.
