Abstract: A point of sale device includes a card mounted on a hanger on a vertically extending mounting structure of a retail shop. The card carries a reusable storage container in which articles are stored. The container includes a body with an opening closed by a transparent, sealable, removable and re-sealable lid. The container is mounted on the card and the device is mounted on the hanger so a prospective purchaser can see the articles through the transparent lid. In one embodiment, the body includes a permanent magnet abutting the base.

Abstract: A wallboard wall carries a picture or shelf hanger in a hole between front and back faces of the wall. The hanger includes: a one-piece member having (a) a shoulder having a bottom portion bearing against a bottom portion of the hole and extending horizontally through the hole, (b) an arm extending upwardly from the shoulder, (c) a leg (i) extending downwardly from the shoulder, and (ii) located outside the front face of the wall and (d) a load bearing surface for receiving the object. The arm has a sharp pointed end piercing the back face of the wall and extending into the wall via the back face of the wall.

Abstract: A picture hanger has a base portion having a hole for an elongated fastener (nail or screw). The base portion carries a member enclosing a front face or the entire base portion. The member has a through hole aligned with and on one or both sides of the fastener hole. The elongated fastener is held in place in the holes so that the fastener need not be manually held during driving thereof into a picture frame or wall. The member is injection molded on the base portion, and consists essentially of nylon-6,6 having a Shore A hardness in the range of 80-90.

Abstract: A point-of-sale device for an article sold at a retail shop is mounted on a horizontally extending rod on a pegboard. A structure enabling the device to be presented to a prospective purchaser of the article includes an arrangement enabling the device to be hung on the rod. The structure includes plural interconnected panels having a common edge. In different embodiments, the device includes two, three and four panels respectively having four, six and eight faces including graphical and text information about the article that is carried on an exterior face of a panel. The text is in different languages. A pair of panels includes a non-permanent fastener arrangement for holding the pair of panels in abutting relation.

Abstract: A picture hanger has an upper piece, a lower piece, and a screw that extends through apertures in shelves on bases of the pieces. The aperture on the lower piece has threads mating with the screw threads on the shaft so that when the upper piece is fixedly mounted on the vertical surface by an elongated fastener the lower piece is held in place only by the threads of the shaft engaging the threads in the aperture on the lower piece shelf. The base of the lower piece carries a picture wire receiving hook so that turning the screw enables the height of the picture to be changed. Strengthening ribs extend between the base and shelf of both pieces.

Abstract: A point-of-sale device carries an article having plural interfitting parts that must be fitted together by a human assembler after purchase, and includes a panel for enabling the device to be presented to a prospective purchaser at a retail shop. The panel includes a container in which the interfitting parts of the article in the assembled condition are located. The container has a transparent region through which the interfitting parts, in their assembled condition, can be seen by a prospective purchaser. The point-of-sale device is mounted on a horizontally extending, elongated element carried by a pegboard.

Abstract: A roll of wire is captured in a cardboard container so the roll is rotatable in the container about a rotation axis of the roll. The container has opposite sidewalls with aligned slots receiving ends of a shaft about which a spool carrying the roll turns. Each side wall includes three panels in different parallel planes; two of these panels include slots with aligned shoulders supporting the shaft. The container has a slot for enabling the wire to be paid from the roll as the roll turns about its rotation axis and a slit having edges for holding the wire in place.

Abstract: A point-of-sale device carries an article and a fastener for use with the article. The device comprises a structure enabling the device to be presented to a prospective purchaser at a retail shop. The article and fastener are located in the structure behind the transparent region so the article and one fastener can be seen by the prospective purchaser. The fastener is fixedly mounted between the transparent region and the article so the fastener can be seen by the prospective purchaser in front of the article and through the transparent region while the device is presented to the prospective purchaser and the likelihood of the fastener being misplaced prior to use, after opening of the transparent region is reduced.

Abstract: A liquid dispenser bottle includes a suction tube and a spray nozzle. An end of the tube abuts an intersection of the bottle base and wall when the bottle is in use. A screen extending between opposite sides of a wall of the tube at the end where the intersection is located overcomes a tube tendency to collapse and enables liquid to flow from the corner of the bottle into the tube. Aesthetic undulations in the bottle wall cause liquid to flow therefrom toward the base when the bottle is vertically disposed, so liquid is not retained in the undulations.

Abstract: Odor emanating from feces deposited by a human making a bowel movement in a toilet is reduced or eliminated by applying a liquid deodorizer to the bowl of the toilet immediately prior to making the bowel movement. The liquid deodorizer is applied as a spherical droplet spray including one or more enzymes.

Abstract: A coiled helical garden hose having a first predetermined length along the longitudinal axis thereof is carried by a holder having an elongated leg including a vertically extending portion having a second predetermined length in the vertical direction that exceeds the first predetermined length. All the turns of the hose fit around and are held in place by the vertically extending leg portion. The longitudinal axis of the hose extends vertically and in approximate alignment with the longitudinal axis of the vertically extending leg portion.
