Abstract: A foldable rack assembly includes first and second components. The first component includes a back plate and a first shelf plate projecting forwardly from the back plate. The second component includes a second shelf plate connected pivotally to the first component. The second shelf plate is movable relative to the back plate between an unfolded position, where the second shelf plate projects forwardly from the back plate and is coplanar with the first shelf plate, and a folded position, where the second shelf plate is rotated downward and toward the back plate.

Abstract: A decorative unit capable of being mounted to a wall is disclosed. The decorative unit may include a decorative portion mountable to a wall and a ledge extending therefrom. The decorative portion may be at least partially translucent. The decorative unit may include a light source behind the decorative portion capable of illuminating the decorative portion when on. A decorative unit may include a top surface capable of acting as a shelf and decorative sidewalls extending down therefrom. The decorative sidewalls may be at least partially translucent. The decorative unit may include a light source behind the decorative sidewalls capable of illuminating the decorative sidewalls when on. The decorative shelf may include molding where the decorative unit abuts the wall. The decorative shelf may include a bracket capable of being mounted to the wall and securing the decorative unit thereto.

Abstract: A device for attaching an item to a railing using: a) a first coupling adapted to be attached to a railing; and b) a second coupling adapted to be attached to an item. The first coupling engages the second coupling and once engaged, the first coupling and the second coupling cannot be separated unless they are disengaged from each other.

Abstract: An anchor device comprising an elongated insert which has a lower end, an upper end, and a plurality of rib members extending radially therefrom, each of said rib members having a radial width which increases gradually in a direction from said lower end to said upper end of said elongated insert; an attachment seat integrally connected to said upper end of said insert and upper edges of said rib members; a metal shaft embedded longitudinally in said elongated insert, said metal shaft having an upper end which is embedded in said attachment seat, and a lower end which extends out of said lower end of said insert; and wherein said lower end of said metal shaft is tapered.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an anchor device. The method includes providing an elongated mold having an axial hole, a plurality of grooves extending radially from the axial hole, and an enlarged receiving space formed adjacent to the second end of the axial hole; disposing a metal shaft in the axial hole of the mold with an upper end of the metal shaft extending into the receiving space of the mold; injecting a molten plastic material into the mold around the metal shaft in order to fill the grooves and the receiving space; moving a forming die into the receiving space of the mold to depress the plastic material in the receiving space; and retracting the forming die from the mold and removing the integrally formed anchor device from the mold.
