Abstract: A main horizontally elongated body is provided including a handle intermediate its opposite ends engageable from above. The opposite end portions of the body each include opposite side ski support structures dependingly supported therefrom whereby each ski of a pair of skis may have longitudinally spaced portions thereof supported from the ski support structures on a corresponding side of the body. The ski support structures each include a pair of vertically elongated inner and outer arms between which to snugly receive a corresponding ski in edge upstanding horizontal position with the ski bottom surfaces opposing each other in horizontally spaced apart relation. The upper ends of the ski support structures are supported from the body for upward and outward swing of the lower ends of the ski support structures toward generally horizontal positions and each of the outer arms is pivotally supported at its upper end for swinging toward and away from the corresponding inner arm.

Abstract: A carrier for printed circuit boards formed of a substantially rectangular configuration having a pair of spaced apart opposing panels coupled between a pair of skeletal wire frames. Coupling devices are provided for adjustably coupling corresponding ends of each of the panels to the frames to thereby permit adjustment of the spacing between the panels. A plurality of spaced apart elongated guides are correspondingly formed on the panels for receiving opposing edges of circuit boards which are supported between the panels. Support devices are integrally formed at the opposing ends of each of the frames for providing a variety of types of supports for the carrier. At the same time, the support devices are utilized for providing an interlocking relationship between adjacent carriers for permitting vertical stacking of the carriers.

Abstract: A device for carrying wooden logs and the like includes two wire frames for containing the logs; a handle for lifting the wire frames; and flanges, connected to the handle, for moving one wire frame relative to the other wire frame. A method of carrying the logs comprises the steps of transporting the device, including the two wire frames and the handle, near to the logs to be carried; moving one wire frame relative to the other so that any one of a number of desired volumes of space is provided therebetween; placing the logs in the one desired volume of space defined between the two wire frames so that the logs are contained therein; lifting by the handle the two wire frames containing the logs; and carrying by the handle the two wire frames containing the logs therein to a desired location.

Abstract: A support device for a plurality of garment hangers is disclosed and an operating handle member therefor. The support device includes a hook portion by which it can be hung from a standard traverse member in a shipping box and a bead formation by which the device can be lifted on engagement of the operating handle member with the bead formation. The device is particularly easily extruded from PVC, polycarbonate or polypropylene materials.

Abstract: An improved, convertible ski carrier in which a retainer for the skis is utilized is disclosed. The retainer includes a shelf for ski poles and is hingeably mounted to the carrier. The carrier itself is provided with a transverse opening to enable more versatility in the mounting of the carrier on a vehicle. An additional shank has been added to a locking mechanism to improve stability and anti-theft properties and an auxiliary locking mechanism including a bracket plate similar to the bracket plate intended for use with a vehicle has been added. The bracket, e.g. the assembly intended to be affixed to a vehicle, has been modified to utilize only a single vertical plate from which two bracket plates extend at right angles in opposite directions from each other.

Abstract: This invention relates to a coathanger suspender for suspending one or more conventional, wire-type coathangers and for providing a handle for carrying the suspended coathangers. The suspender comprises a housing having a handle portion and a magazine portion. The magazine portion is adapted to receive and then lock the hooks of the coathangers. The handle portion allows the hand to comfortably carry the magazine portion, the coathangers, and the garments suspended therefrom in a vertical direction.

Abstract: A carrier, for holding the hook portion of one or more conventional garment hangers, includes a saddle with a bearing surface to receive the hanger hooks, one or more locking elements carried by the saddle member and movable to one position to overlie the bearing surface to retain hanger hooks therein and to another position in which hooks are freely engageable and removable, and a handle coupled to the saddle.
