Abstract: A support rack for temporary storage of clothes and other articles comprises a post with a bottom ring member for resting on the floor and a top pad member spring biased upwardly for engaging the ceiling of a room so the post is supported vertically by its engagement with the floor and the ceiling. The post is formed from from elongate post portions and from separate support pieces, each of which has a coupling at the top and bottom ends for engagement with respective post portions. Each support piece includes 3 pins projecting upwardly and outwardly at 90.degree. spacing with each pin being arranged to receive a sleeve of a support member for the articles. One support member comprises a trouser bar with a triangular loop at the top of the sleeve and a second support member comprises a tray.

Abstract: A cover for openings in a partially assembled missile or aircraft structure to prevent entry of chips, oil or other debris during further machining or other manufacturing operations. The cover has a central elastically compressible plug section adapted to fit snugly in an opening and an outwardly extending flange around one end of the plug. When the plug portion is inserted into the opening, the flange covers a ring of bolt holes surrounding the opening. The plug is formed from an elastic closed cell foam material and preferably has a cross-section slightly larger than the opening so as to be compressed slightly when inserted in the opening. The cover is coated with an elastomeric polyurethane coating to prevent flaking of the foam plug when inserted and removed from the opening and to prevent adhesion of contaminates to the cover. Because of the compressibility of the plug, each cover can be used with similarly configured openings of slightly varying sizes.
