Abstract: A seal assembly for a bearing includes an inner seal member that has an annular ring with a first lobe extending therefrom and a seal receiving surface on a leg extending axially from the annular ring. The seal receiving surface has two seating areas. The seal assembly includes an outer seal member positioned radially inward from the leg and axially outward from the annular ring. The outer seal member has a pivot member which has a second lobe extending outwardly therefrom. The seal assembly includes a retaining ring that has a circumferential groove formed therein. The pivot member is pivotally seated in the groove so that the second lobe is moveable between the two first seating areas.

Abstract: A product display for illuminating merchandise and/or display material includes a light guide that includes a first end and a further end. The light guide is configured to guide light from the first end towards the further end from a light source located at or near the first end of the product display.

Abstract: A security device is disclosed. The security device includes a casing including a front opening. A securing member is coupled to the casing. A movable locking member extends outward when the security device is in a locked configuration and is retracted inward when the security device is in an unlocked configuration. A locking mechanism in the security device can keep the movable locking member in the locked configuration. A button passing through the casing can be depressed or otherwise moved to cause the movable locking member to retract, to thereby put the security device in an unlocked configuration.
