Abstract: A ball mount device, formed on a rigid non-metallic frame having an upright columnar stem portion projected from a circular transverse base portion, and an enlarged connector core on the upright stem portion distal of the base portion. A first elastomeric material is molded over the connector core distal of the base portion and forms a smooth part-spherical outer surface. A second elastomeric material is molded over the base portion and forms a pliantly conformable outer skirt portion extending outwardly thereof with a smooth and substantially flat and circular outer surface opposite from the stem portion. A pressure sensitive adhesive is provided on the outer surface of the elastomeric material coating the base portion for adhering the ball mount device to a mounting surface that is external of the ball mount device.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a system for mounting components to a rack comprising brackets that can be mounted to the rear of the rack through the opening in the front of rack before the component is inserted into the slot and mating sleeves running along the sides of the components. The brackets include arms that extend forwardly towards the front of the slot. After the brackets are attached, the component can be slid into the slot from the front with the sleeves sliding over and engaging the brackets. In this manner, the component can be slid into a slot on the rack with the brackets sliding into the sleeves, thereby providing support for the component along a substantial portion of the depth of the component without the need to bolt or otherwise fixedly attach the component to the bracket after the component is in the rack. Accordingly, a component can be installed in a rack without the need for any access except from the front of the rack.

Abstract: A portable tool transports and manipulates disposable trash bags with a pair of cooperating, displaceable jaws coupled to a rigid, peripheral frame. The substantially circular frame conceals the jaws when retracted within suitable peripheral grooves in which the jaws nest. A manual activator compressively attached to the frame midsection supports a pistol-grip handle and associated trigger mechanism. Each jaw has a pivoted hub portion with integral, projecting levers concealed within a clutch mechanism. A trigger deflects a cable to pivot the hub levers and deploy the jaws. When the jaws are displaced outwardly, upper edges of a bag may occupy the space between the jaws and the frame. When the trigger is released, the jaws retract in response to spring pressure, nesting within the frame peripheral grooves. The jaws thus securely grasp and captivate a bag, the upper periphery of which is sandwiched between the frame and the seated jaws.

Abstract: A display device may be mounted at a predetermined angle via a free-standing display housing. In one example, the display device bracket may include at least two spring loaded tabs and a display monitor affixed to the display device bracket. A base mount may be on a resting surface with at least one side that is configured to make contact with the display device. A rear housing cover may also be included with at least two receiving tabs form-fitted to receive the spring loaded tabs and provide a secure spring-loaded locking position that maintains the display device bracket in a locked position and in an upright predefined angled viewing position.
