Abstract: A portable modular sports equipment rack includes elongated telescoping tubular mounting members for accommodating a number of different types of hooks specifically adapted to receive different types of softball or baseball equipment, including at least fielding gloves, batting helmets and bats. Tubular spacer elements maintain a desired space between different pieces of equipment. A plurality of aligned apertures in a line along the tubular mounting members allow the length of the rack to be adjusted easily and is locked into the desired length by a snap button fastener engaged in two aligned apertures in the telescoping members. Aligned apertures through both side walls of the tubular members along a diameter of a cross section of the tubes adjacent to their ends allow the rack to be conveniently suspended from a chain link fence by a clevis pin through the apertures.

Abstract: A cutting device is provided which is useful in trimming the jackets from semi-rigid coaxial cables and wire having a cutting bit and support attached to movable jaws. A thumbpiece is provided to actuate the opening of the jaws for receiving the cable to be trimmed, and a spring member is provided to actuate the closing of the jaws when thumbpiece is released. The cutting device utilizes one moving part during the cutting operation by using a rolling cut action. The nature of the jaws allows the cutting device to work in space having clearances less than 0.160 inches.
