Abstract: An adapter for mounting cable hangers to a mounting structure includes: a main panel having a hole therein; a pair of legs attached to and extending from the main panel, the legs having first and second ends; and a pair of fingers, each of the fingers having first and second sides, each leg being fixed at its first end to the first side of a respective leg. Each leg includes an engagement feature one its second side and each finger includes a mating engagement feature on its second end. In an unengaged condition, a gap is present between the second side of each leg and the second end of the corresponding finger, and in an engaged condition, the engagement feature of each leg is mated with the engagement feature of the corresponding finger, thereby forming a loop between the finger and the arm.

Abstract: Cloth member fastener (1) may comprise tongue(s) (30) having engagement projection(s) (32) comprising head portion(s) (33) and neck portion(s) (34); loop frame(s) (10) comprising capturing hole(s) (13) for capturing engagement projection(s) (32) and made up of narrow capturing hole region(s) (13b) through which only neck portion(s) (34) can pass, and wide insertion hole region(s) (13a) through which head portion(s) (33) and neck portion(s) (34) can pass; stopper hinge shaft(s) (22) extending in horizontal direction(s) and disposed toward base end(s); and hinging stopper(s) (20) coupled in hinged fashion by means of hinge structure(s) with respect to loop frame(s) (10) due to the fact that stopper hinge shaft(s) (22) is/are wrapped about between pair(s) of hinge holes (15a, 15b) of loop frame(s) (10) by bent portion(s) (39) of tongue(s) (30). When closed, hinging stopper(s) (20) may cover wide insertion hole region(s) (13a) and inhibit movement of engagement projection(s) (32).
Abstract: A merchandising hanger has a planar surface adapted to receive printed indicia thereon and characterized by having a top and a base. The top of the planar surface is formed as a hook, cutout, or hole so as to allow the merchandising hanger to be suspended from a conventional merchandising rack. A tab extends from the base of the planar surface and includes a stud integral with the tab and a stud-receiving aperture in another portion of the tab. The aperture has a flange associated therewith. Intermediate between the stud and the aperture is a tab portion having a thickness less than the tab portion proximal to the planar surface. The relative thicknesses of tab portions and the interaction between the stud and complementary aperture afford a theft deterrent without compromising the merchandising function.
