RODS FOR USE WITH HANGING FILE HOLDERS
Rods for use in a filing system are disclosed. An example file folder rod includes a first end, a second end and an elongated body extending between the first end and the second end, the elongated body having a longitudinal axis. The example rod also includes a hook coupled to the first end of the rod. The example hook includes a longitudinal portion extending along the longitudinal axis, an elongated hook portion coupled to an end of the longitudinal portion with the elongated hook portion extending from the longitudinal portion a first distance, and a first extension extending from the longitudinal portion with the first extension extending from the longitudinal portion a second distance, the second distance less than the first distance.
NOTEBOOK HANGER
A hanger for hanging a binder containing loose-leaf pages in a hanging drawer system has first and second opposed hooks configured to be secured to a notebook spine. First and second arms are moveable relative to the hooks between extended and retracted positions. The arms have support surfaces that extend laterally beyond the hooks in the extended position and lips that are spaced from the hooks in the extended position. A method of hanging a notebook in a drawer includes moving the arms to the extended position and placing the support surfaces of the arms on the rails of the hanging drawer system so the rails support the notebook.
Electronically addressable document receptacle with A-polar connectivity
An electronically addressable a-polar document receptacle identification circuit has first and second terminals adapted to be connected to a two conductor data bus for supplying data signals to the terminals and for receiving responses from the circuit. The circuit has a two phase diode bridge circuit with first and second nodes connected to the first and second terminals. The diode bridge circuit is connect to the data signal input of a circuit microcontroller having an output connected to the first and second nodes for furnishing response signals to the nodes. The associated receptacle can be a file folder removably received in a file cabinet or a notebook binder removably received on a cabinet shelf. The circuit will function correctly regardless of the orientation of the terminals with respect to the data bus conductors so a file folder or a notebook binder can be installed in either one of two possible orientations without affecting the functionality of the circuit.
ADJUSTABLE FRAMES FOR USE WITH HANGING FOLDERS AND RELATED METHODS
Adjustable frames for use with hanging folders are disclosed herein. An example frame disclosed herein includes an a first end portion including a first side and a second side, a second end portion including a third side and a fourth side, the second end portion and the first end portion disposed within a plane, a first track disposed between the first side and the third side, and a second track disposed between the second side and the fourth side, the first track and the second track to enable the frame to move between a contracted position and an expanded position within the plane, the contracted position corresponding to a first distance between the first end portion and the second end portion, the expanded position corresponding to a second distance between the first end portion and the second end portion, the second distance greater than the first distance.

The example rod also includes a hook coupled to the first end of the rod. The example hook includes a longitudinal portion extending along the longitudinal axis, an elongated hook portion coupled to an end of the longitudinal portion with the elongated hook portion extending from the longitudinal portion a first distance, and a first extension extending from the longitudinal portion with the first extension extending from the longitudinal portion a second distance, the second distance less than the first distance.
INDEPENDENTLY POSITIONABLE TAB SYSTEM
An independently positional tab for use with a folder, and a method of making the same is disclosed. The integral 2-D (flat) or 3-D tab is formed of two planar elements joined and folded along a central line. Portions of the inner surface of the tab have adhesive for affixation to a folder or document. Additionally, the tab may have lifting holes for removing the folder by pulling on the tab.

Adjustable frames for use with hanging folders and related methods
Adjustable frames for use with hanging folders and related methods are disclosed herein. An example apparatus includes an adjustable frame for hanging folders. The frame is to couple to a first rail and a second rail spaced relative to each other to cooperatively receive a first folder. The frame is movable between an expanded position and a contracted position to enable the first and second rails to receive a second folder sized differently relative to the first folder. The example apparatus also includes a receptacle disposed on the frame to receive a first clip for coupling the first rail to the frame.
BREAST CANCER RECOVERY GARMENT
The breast-cancer recovery system comprises a breast cancer recovery garment, an organizational subsystem and a needs kit. The breast cancer recovery garment comprises a body portion defining an opening, positioned, configured and dimensioned to allow the performance of a breast cancer treatment procedure and a closure device suitable for closing the opening when a procedure is not being performed. The body portion of the garment defines the elongated pocket proximate the bottom edge, extending along the bottom edge and defines slits in at least one of the sleeves. The body portion of the recovery garment comprises of a warm material and/or of decorative pattern. The organizational subsystem comprises a frame configured to support a plurality of color-coded files, and marked with identification tabs which relate to breast cancer patient needs, and customized medical information. A breast cancer patient needs kit comprises a basket-like container, a canvas tote bag, a canvas tote bag with a zipper closure, or a basket and clear wrap around it, at least one drug and/or medication and at least one edible item.
Visually enhanced tab file system
A tab system for a folder (10a), and a method of making same is disclosed. The tab is enlarged to carry more information/indicia. The visual indicia space (16a), i.e. the viewable space on the front (32a, 36a) of the folder which allows viewing of the enlarged tab is achieve without violating the overall size restrictions (40a) of the file folder. Instead, the front of the folder adjacent to the tab on the back panel, is cut away (32a,34a) to expose a greater portion of the back panel (14a) and allow an increase in visual indicia space. The remaining portion of the front panel, not adjacent to the tab may also be cut away (34a) to allow other enlarged tab files, with offset tabs,(22, 21a) to be viewable behind the present file.
