  • Patent number: 4993562
    Abstract: A wall-mountable grid-support alternatively accommodates hook-type and slat-type garment brackets. The grid-support includes: a plurality of parallel and directionally transversely extending spacer members located at alternating small and large separations, the spacer members at colinar terminal-lengths defining a wall-abuttable first-plane and at a medial-length defining a second-plane; a plurality of parallel and directionally longitudinal linear members attached along the second-plane to widely separated locations of the spacer members medial-lengths and which, by virtue of a preferably elliptical cross-sectional shape for each bridger member, provides a third-plane; and along the first-plane, wall attachment grommets that are desireable stationed between terminal-lengths of proximal spacer members.

  • Patent number: 4940148
    Abstract: Retail display wire cubes having upright sideward grids effected into spaced-apart parallel relationship with co-axially aligned rectangular spacing members that extend above and below the grids. The retail display wire cubes are adapted for secure removable attachment to a similar cube stacked immediately therebelow with U-shaped having vertical wings carried by terminal spacing members at locations below a grid and each clip including a toe-like lower-terminus projecting transversely outwardly from the vertical wings.

  • Patent number: 4911393
    Abstract: For cantilever mounting to and slidable positioning along upright channel members, there is disclosed retailing display brackets including a conventional display or hanger bar that is connected to a novel anchor-member. The anchor-member has triangular wings including a rearward prong and also leaf-spring which together normally bear against the channel rear-face and effect a cantilever mounting for the elongate bar. With such prongs and leaf-spring combination, specially contoured or perforate channel rear-faces are unnecessary. For slideable height adjustment of the anchor-member along the upright channel, the operator briefly maintains the elongate bar in an inclined condition which de-activates the wing prong and the leaf-spring during the height adjustment process.

  • Patent number: 4892200
    Abstract: The retailing display assembly is of the upright channel and slidably positionable and releasably anchorable type. The upright channel has an upright rear-wall provided with two columnar arrays of rearwardly struck lanced openings therethrough. The bracket includes a conventional horizontal hanger bar extending rigidly forwardly from an upright web member. The web member is provided with a pair of forwardly extending wings abuttable against the channel member front-walls and is further provided with a pair of downwardly and rearwardly extending tabs that are releasably anchorably protrudable through selectable co-elevational openings of the channel rear-wall.

  • Patent number: 4860984
    Abstract: Conventional retailing display brackets having a single-offset-anchor portion are self-secureable to internally horizontally slotted upright panels. To adapt such brackets for similar self-secureable engagement to latticed panels, the present invention provides a height-extender adapter clip that is securely slideably mountable to the bracket's single-offset-anchor portion. The height-extender adapter is fabricated by strategically joining a laminar front-plate to a hooked rear-plate, and which plates are specially contoured for slideably bearing against selected areas of the bracket's single-offset-anchor portion.

  • Patent number: 4692056
    Abstract: Garments hang-rail coupling securely removably mountable at the forward portion of each of a plurality of parallel conventional horizontal brackets respectively forwardly provided with an upstanding lug such as hook or cube. The coupling forward portion includes an upwardly open trough adapted to removably support a conventional garments hang-rail. The coupling rearward portion includes a housing having forward and rearward open-ends, there being opposed side-panels rigidly attached to lower rearward portions of the trough. The housing also includes a roof-panel spaced a finite-gap rearwardly from the trough to accommodate the bracket upstanding lug and also includes a rearwardly positioned base extending between the side-panels and adapted to abuttably underlie the bracket.
