  • Patent number: 4457088
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a calendar holder having a unique construction which permits all components of the holder to be manufactured of a plastic material. The holder includes an inclined support platform adapted to support a pair of spaced apart arches. Each arch is of a generally inverted U-shape and includes two legs which are inserted into apertures formed in the platform. One of the legs is provided with a lower threaded end and a radially extending lip immediately above the threaded end. The radial lip is received into an annular recess formed in the upper surface of the platform about one of the apertures. The radial lip functions both as a stop member to control the height of the respective arch and as a stabilizer for supporting the arch on the platform. A retaining nut is fastened to the threaded end of the one leg to secure the arch to the platform.

  • Patent number: 4444319
    Abstract: A tray for a stack of note paper has an inclined bottom wall on which the stack rests. The tray has supports so that it can be placed on a flat surface. At the lower end of the bottom wall is an outwardly inclined end wall against which the lower end of the stack bears. The upper end wall of the bottom is spaced from the adjacent edge of the stack. Approximately midway of the bottom wall is a depression of substantial depth and formed by two downwardly inclined wall portions which meet at their lower edges. In order to free the upper sheet from the stack the stack is pressed downwardly by a thumb or finger into the depression, thereby bending the stack and causing the edge of the uppermost sheet to flex free and be grasped conveniently and peeled from the remainder.
