A garbage can securing assembly for securing a garbage can to a wall or the like includes a pair of brackets. Each of the brackets may be attached to a vertical support surface and each of the brackets has a receiving space therein. The receiving space in each of the brackets insertably receives a handle of a garbage can. A pair of pins is provided and each of the pins removably engages an associated one of the brackets. Moreover, each of the pins retains the garbage can in the brackets thereby inhibiting the garbage can from being tipped.

A panel installation tool is provided that includes a first portion configured to releasably engage with a panel, a second portion attached to the first portion and configured to releasably engage a structural component to retain the first portion with respect to the structural component, and a location indicator configured to enable marking on a panel surface a location through which a retaining element may be used to retain the panel to the structural component.

An alignment device includes a first body and a second body, at least one retention member flexibly coupled to the first body, and a locking member coupled to the first body. The second body has an outer surface and an inner surface defining a cylindrical wall, the cylindrical wall defining a cylindrical opening, a first retention opening extending through the cylindrical wall and a second retention opening extending through the cylindrical wall. The first body translates within the cylindrical opening of the second body and the locking member engages with the first retention opening to position the alignment device in a first position and the locking member engages with the second retention opening to position the alignment device in a second position.

A structure and support device for photovoltaic arrays is provided. The device provides a structural connection between photovoltaic modules, wind deflectors and similar hardware. The invention provides an advantage of quick and easy installation of hardware components and associated parts, and meets the demand for a single device capable of combining solar energy associated hardware into photovoltaic arrays.

Bracket assemblies to connect a first part and a second part where the two parts form an angle with one another including a first articulation member that includes a first joint portion with a first pivot connection that is coupled with the first part, the first articulation member also including a second joint portion having a second pivot connection that is coupled with the second part. In some examples, there is a second articulation member that is pivotably connected to the first articulation member and the first part.

The present disclosure relates to an air cleaner with an improved locking structure. The air cleaner includes a cabinet, a panel having a plurality of holes for discharging air to the front of the cabinet and detachably mounted on the cabinet, and a locking device to detachably connect the cabinet and the panel, wherein the locking device includes a first locking member disposed on the panel, and a second locking member disposed in the cabinet to lock or unlock the first locking member by being rotated by pressing of the first locking member.

In one aspect, kits for constructing an apparatus are described herein which, in some embodiments, can demonstrate desirable modularity, adjustability, and reconfigurability. A kit for constructing an apparatus described herein comprises a plurality of modular blocks and fastening pins and coupling pins for connecting the modular blocks to one another. A modular block comprises a first face having one or more first apertures for receiving fastening pins and an adjacent second face having one or more second apertures for receiving coupling pins. A fastening pin comprises a sidewall aperture for receiving a coupling pin.

A fastening system comprising a second fastener fastened to a first fastener; the first fastener comprising a hollow housing having a side-wall and a top-wall; a first aperture formed in the side-wall and in the top-wall of the hollow housing, the first aperture configured for entry of the second fastener during fastening of the second fastener and first fastener; a second aperture formed in the side-wall of the hollow housing; a beam formed in the side-wall between the first aperture and the second aperture, the beam attached at opposing ends to the side-wall; the beam blocks the first aperture to inhibit separation of the second fastener from the first fastener through the first aperture; and the beam is configured to be deformed during fastening of the second fastener to the first fastener.

Disclosed is an embed pan suitable for use with railing embed plates. Railing embed plates are commonly attached by bolts to balcony decks as supports for balcony railings. The disclosed embed pan provides a watertight seal around railing embed plate.

An attachment feature is provided for securing two workpieces together. That attachment feature includes a first wall, a second wall, and a cantilever snap extending between the two walls. Further, the attachment feature includes a first lateral rib projecting from the first wall and a second lateral rib projecting from the second wall. A workpiece assembly is also provided.
