Small personal items hook for slotted panel/wall standards

Abstract

The purpose of this product heretofore known as The Hook is to provide the ability to hang personal items on slotted tracks of office systems furniture and residential wall tracks. It is unique in that there is currently no provision for a small, light, inexpensive hanging device available in a choice of so many colors which serves this purpose.

1 . What I claim of my invention is that there does not exist in the same form a small, light, inexpensive, high strength, hanging device that is designed and manufactured specifically to be used in conjunction with slotted wall standards of both office furniture with slotted standards either integrated into them or for use as applied elements to walls and common residential slotted wall standards. Based on my experience, and from observation and research to I believe that this is the first utility object to be developed for its specific purpose which is the hanging of small personal and household items on various types of slotted wall standards.  
     
     
         2 . What I claim of my invention is that since the current offerings of office furniture manufacturers and manufacturers of residential slotted standard hardware have not provided such a device that credit for its invention shall belong to me.  
     
     
         3 . What I claim is that my invention, because of its general shape and form characteristics may be manufactured out of materials that are monolithic and homogeneous so that they do not require additional finishing processes substantially reducing manufacturing costs.  
     
     
         4 . What I claim is that the manufacturing process specifically steel rule die cutting allows for a fast, inexpensive method of creating the shape of the Hook without extensive investment in production tooling allowing for many variations on the shape, form and finish.  
     
     
         5 . What I claim is that my invention because of its simple shape is nonspecific to a single office furniture manufacture but rather fits the slotted wall standards of office panels space dividers and wall standards from many different manufacturers.
