  • Patent number: 5042769
    Abstract: A device for providing an adjustable hanging file holder frame which is adaptable to a variety of existing office and desk organizing systems. In the preferred form of the invention, resilient, flexible clips are used to attach support rods to existing office or desk organization systems. The support rods provide the frame or rail upon which hanging files may be placed. The support rods are reversibly attached to the resilient clip members by a coupling head. The coupling head is configured to allow its forcible insertion into a mated receptacle within the clip member. When the support rod coupling head is within the receptacle, the clip mechanism is free to rotate about the support rod. The clip permits a variety of different shaped objects to be secured, providing a versatile, adaptable means of providing a hanging file folder frame.
