Holder For An Electronic Price Label

View page
US Patent:
6553702, Apr 29, 2003
Filed:
Mar 3, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/518407
Inventors:
James A. Bacnik - Mentor OH
Assignee:
Fasteners For Retail, Inc. - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G09F 318
US Classification:
4066103, 40649
Abstract:
An extruded holder for an electronic price label (EPL) includes a channel member defined by a base wall and first and second spaced-apart sidewalls that project outwardly from opposite ends of the base wall with respective first and second inner faces arranged in opposed facing relation. The base wall and the sidewalls define a C-shaped recess in the channel member. The sidewall inner faces each define a groove that extends parallel to the base wall, and an associated EPL is adapted for receipt in the recess with first and second projections of the EPL respectively positioned in the first and second grooves. A clip is connected to the channel member and is adapted for releasable connection to a wide variety of different retail shelf fixtures. The clip is defined by a base member and a back member interconnected to define an L-shaped cross-sectional shape, and the clip is further defined by a connecting arm that has a first end connected to the clip base member and a second end connected to the channel member. The connecting arm and the clip back member define a slot therebetween that receives and retains a projecting edge of an associated retail shelf.

Holder For An Electronic Price Label

US Patent:
7455081, Nov 25, 2008
Filed:
Mar 11, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/799563
Inventors:
James A. Bacnik - Mentor OH, US
Assignee:
Fasteners for Retail, Inc. - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G09F 3/18
US Classification:
14066103, 4064202
Abstract:
A holder for an electronic price label (EPL) includes a channel member defined by a base wall and first and second spaced-apart side walls that project outwardly from opposite ends of the base wall. The base wall and the side walls define a somewhat C-shaped recess in the channel member. An associated EPL is adapted for receipt in the recess. A clip is connected to the channel member and is adapted for releasable connection to a wide variety of different retail shelf fixtures. In one embodiment, the clip is connected to a back wall that is interconnected with the channel member in different ways to define a variety of cross-sectional shapes. In another embodiment, the clip cooperates with a top wall to define a slot therebetween that receives and retains a front edge of an associated retail shelf. In still another embodiment, the clip includes top and bottom sections that cooperate with a back wall.

Retail Shelf Supply Monitoring System

View page
US Patent:
8260456, Sep 4, 2012
Filed:
Mar 25, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/410586
Inventors:
Norman L. Siegel - Mentor OH, US
Gregory M. Bird - Solon OH, US
Kenneth G. Rhineberger - Perry OH, US
James Bacnik - Mentor OH, US
Paul Mueller - Wadsworth OH, US
Daniel Kump - Highland Heights OH, US
William H. Walker - Fairlawn OH, US
Assignee:
Fasteners For Retail, Inc. - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G06F 17/00
B65H 7/00
G05B 19/00
US Classification:
700244, 700232, 700231, 700243, 221 4, 221 92, 340 592
Abstract:
An inventory shelf monitoring system includes a plurality of track systems located on at least one shelf of a retail or warehouse establishment. Each track system includes a sensor and actuator that determines the position of a product pusher. The identity and location of the product pusher, for each track system on the at least one shelf, is sent to a data acquisition and transmitter circuit that assembles, formats, and transmits pusher position data to a central receiver, which receives corresponding data from all shelves employing the system in the retail or warehouse establishment. The data is then transmitted to a central processing unit in a user device that maintains data corresponding to product count, availability, and activity associated with each track unit of each shelf employing the system in the retail or warehouse establishment. Inventory control, the prevention of out-of-stock situations, and the assessment of activity indicative of theft or accident is thus monitored in real time for prompt remedial action.

Mobile Communications Antenna Assembly

View page
US Patent:
55150640, May 7, 1996
Filed:
Jun 25, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/083054
Inventors:
James A. Bacnik - Mentor OH
James Hadzoglou - Mayfield Heights OH
Assignee:
Allen Telecom Group, Inc. - Solon OH
International Classification:
H01Q 132
H01Q 150
US Classification:
343860
Abstract:
A window mounted antenna system having a foot or exterior support member attached to an antenna radiator or whip and typically mounted on the outside of a window or dielectric member comprised of a plastic decorative housing, a conductive foot portion which acts as the coupling capacitor and is inserted into the cover and conductively connected to the radiating member or whip, and a fastener for attaching the whip to the foot or base portion. The conductive foot includes attachment fingers insertable into the housing and retained in place upon insertion therein, and one or more flanges for receiving a fastener passed through the end of the antenna. A coupling assembly disposed on the other side of the window includes a formed or stamped conductive element which incorporates the various conductive components which make up the coupling assembly. The conductive components are overmolded with a nonconductive support material to produce an integrated structure incorporating the various components of the coupling assembly.

Marine Drive System With Belt Drive

US Patent:
51785668, Jan 12, 1993
Filed:
Jun 12, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/537060
Inventors:
Mark Stojkov - Parma OH
John T. Venaleck - Madison OH
Carl W. Rose - Cape Coral FL
Charles R. Anspach - Cape Coral FL
Park French - Aurora OH
James A. Bacnik - Mentor OH
John E. Hartman - Painesville OH
Assignee:
Ohio Associated Enterprises, Inc. - Painesville OH
International Classification:
B63H 2542
US Classification:
440 75
Abstract:
An outdrive system for watercraft includes use of plastic or other relatively flexible material, e. g. , compared to metal, especially as a housing material, and techniques which enable and/or at least facilitate use of such housing material. One of those techniques employs a flexible member, such as a belt, to couple power between the input and output of an outdrive and another employs a cooling system to remove heat. The invention also relates to use in a vehicle drive, especially for watercraft, of housing materials that are not subject to corrosion, galvanic action and the like.

Hermaphroditic Interconnect System

US Patent:
50983113, Mar 24, 1992
Filed:
Jun 12, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/365011
Inventors:
Alan L. Roath - Madison OH
James A. Bacnik - Mentor OH
John T. Venaleck - Madison OH
Howard J. Venaleck - Painesville OH
Assignee:
Ohio Associated Enterprises, Inc. - Painesville OH
International Classification:
H01R 1328
US Classification:
439289
Abstract:
An electrical interconnect system employs electrical connectors in which both the housing (or support) and the contact(s) thereof are hermaphroditic, i. e. , without gender limitations. Therefore, two such connectors may interconnect with each other. Contacts are arranged in a header or other housing or support in which at least two contacts, for example, adjacent contacts, respectively face in opposite directions. Bifurcated and trifurcated contacts have contacting portions respective ones of which face in opposite directions and are supported on parallel cantilever arms.

Holder For Electronic Information Carrier

US Patent:
61199907, Sep 19, 2000
Filed:
Jun 20, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/880079
Inventors:
Daniel J. Kump - Gates Mills OH
Stephen D. Wamsley - Lakewood OH
James A. Bacnik - Mentor OH
Assignee:
Fasteners For Retail, Inc. - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
G09F 318
US Classification:
24822022
Abstract:
A holder for an electronic information carrier includes a body having a cavity for holding an associated electronic price label, a rear wall having a convex section and an aperture extending through the convex section. An adapter cooperates with the body. The adapter has a front wall with a concave section in which the rear wall convex section of the body can be accommodated. An aperture extends through the concave section. The adapter aperture is aligned with the body rear wall convex section aperture. A fastener selectively extends through the aligned aperture to secure the holder to the adapter and orient the body at a first angle to a horizontal plane.
