A collectable mounting device is configurable to a wall-mounted configuration, and a horizontal support surface (or shelf) mounted configuration. In the wall-mounted configuration, support members are secured together via a fastener through the adjustment slots such that support channels extend in the same direction to support the collectable on a wall. In the shelf-mounted configuration, the support members are fastened together such that the support channels extend in opposite directions, and a tensioning member is inserted between the support members in opposed tensioning member receiving slots to flex the support members away from each other. A packaging method includes stacking the support members and tensioning member to align holes therein; wrapping a label around the stacked support members and tensioning member to align holes in the label and holes in the support members and tensioning member; and inserting a fastener through the aligned holes.

A method for securing a portable electronic device having a housing to a substantially immovable object utilizing a locking assembly having a security rod or spike formed with an anchoring end separated axially by a protruding end, a locking device with an internal locking mechanism and a cable permanently attached to the locking device at one end, includes several steps. The steps include securedly fixing the anchoring end of the security rod or spike to the portable electronic device upon or through the housing, attaching an other end of the cable to the substantially immovable object and inserting the protruding end of the security rod into an opening in the locking device to actuate the internal locking mechanism and lock the locking device to the captive security rod. Locking the security rod to the locking device concurrently locks the portable electronic device to which it is anchored to the substantially immovable object.

A shelf for displaying a single item. The shelf includes a slanting back panel, a base panel disposed at the base of the slanting back panel, a catch disposed at the front, distal end of the base panel, and a back panel support disposed in the rear of the slanting back panel and in proximity of the top edge of the slanting back panel.

The present invention relates to a portable bookstand, in particular, to a portable bookstand which is easy to carry due to having a foldable structure, firmly supports a book, and prevents pages from flipping arbitrarily, the portable bookstand comprising: a book back support frame which supports the back of a book; a first page fixing frame which is rotatably coupled to one side of the book back support frame and fixes the page while supporting one side of the book; and a second page fixing frame which is rotatably coupled to the other side of the book back support frame and fixes the page while supporting the other side of the book, wherein the book back support frame, the first page fixing frame, and the second page fixing frame are formed by bending wires, and the book back support frame includes a truss structure formed in an X-shape and is coupled to each of the first page fixing frame and the second page fixing frame that are arranged so that the upper ends forming truss structures face frontward.

A foldable easel includes a first media panel hingedly connected to a second media panel which is hingedly connected to a third panel laying horizontally along a flat surface. A first support, second support, and locking panel help support the first and second media panel to be erected in a viewing fashion. At least two items may be displayed on the first and second media panels while erected and the easel may be folded into a compact unit when in a state of non-use.
