The text is in different languages. A pair of panels includes a non-permanent fastener arrangement for holding the pair of panels in abutting relation. | 06-03-2010 |
20100176073 | Stackable Stems - A stem may comprise a circular base, a plurality of outer ears, and a plurality of outer uprights. The circular base may have a circular outer perimeter centered on a center point of the circular base. The plurality of outer ears may protrude outwardly from the circular outer perimeter. The plurality of outer uprights may be respectively connected to each of the plurality of outer ears at a bottom end of each of the plurality of outer uprights. The plurality of outer uprights may be substantially parallel with each other and may be substantially perpendicular to the circular base. The stem may be configured to allow an additional stem to mateable stack inside the stem. The additional stem may be rotated (with respect to the stem) an incremental amount such that sides of outer ears of the additional stem may respectively contact sides of the outer uprights of the stem. | 07-15-2010 |
20110108499 | POUCH LOADING APPARATUS - A pouch loading arrangement is provided. The pouch loading arrangement includes a pouch rack and a plurality of pouches supported by the pouch rack. The pouch rack includes a base, first and second axially spaced apart leg portions extending vertically upward from the base. A first support bar extends axially from the first leg portion toward the second leg portion. The first support bar has a distal end portion bent vertically upward forming a first hook. A first hook finger extends vertically upward from the second leg portion. The plurality of pouches are supported by the first support bar. The hook and hook finger can support a pouch in an open position to facilitate loading of the pouch. | 05-12-2011 |
20110266235 | GRAVITY FED PEG MERCHANDISING SYSTEM - A merchandising display using pegs mounted on peg board slopes the pegs downwardly from back to front and has a product retaining bar disposed below the pegs a distance calculated to engage the bottom of products displayed on the pegs. The merchandising display pegs are sloped at an angle calculated to allow gravity to draw products from the back of the peg to the front of the peg as products are removed while the bar engaging the bottom of the products maintains the forward most product at the optimum display angle for purchasers. | 11-03-2011 |
