Abstract: A modular shelving assembly has at least three spaced poles, each having a connector, a first post unit and a second post unit. Each post unit has first and second opposing ends, with a first protrusion extending radially inwardly from the hollow interior surface of the first post unit adjacent the first end thereof, and a second protrusion extending radially inwardly from the hollow interior surface of the second post unit adjacent the second end thereof. Each connector has first and second opposing ends, a first track provided adjacent the first end of the connector and a second track provided adjacent the second end of the connector. Each of the first and second tracks has a leg portion extending from one of the first or second end of the connector, and a foot extending from the leg portion.

Abstract: A pedal board for releasably retaining a plurality of foot pedal operated sound effect generators used in conjunction with musical instruments, such as guitars. The pedal board comprises an upper plate having a surface constructed to releasably hold a plurality of foot pedal operated sound effect generators.

Abstract: A dress or clothing form includes a sheet metal back to which are attached a plurality of reinforcing strips. A support rod is carried on one of the reinforcing strips and on the back. Leg supports are attached to the back to which are attached a pair of flat leg panels. Front and back molded plastic body panels are secured by fasteners to the metal back and similar molded front and back leg panels are secured to the flat leg panels. The support rod includes a large diameter portion at its top which includes a tapered surface. This surface mates with a socket on a support arm attached to a stand for supporting the form at the desired height. The stand includes telescoping members each including a rack with one member including a gas spring connected to a pinion positioned between the racks. The gas spring is arranged to essentially balance the weight of the dress form and garment so that a worker can move it up and down with little effort.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved reciprocating jaw type hemostatic clip applier or ligator. The improved apparatus is provided with an improved camming mechanism which interfaces with the jaws to cam the jaws closed and which is designed to maintain its alignment with respect to the jaws to prevent misalignment of the jaws during closure and malformation of clips. The improved apparatus is also provided with a lockout mechanism which prevents the jaws from being closed once the last clip has been formed and released from the instrument.
