Devices for preventing towel slippage
Devices, apparatus and systems for preventing towels from slipping off a towel holder are disclosed. The apparatus, devices and systems may include a surface that provides a frictional interface between the towel and towel holder. Two opposing edges of such a device may each include at least one raised or enlarged attachment formation which, when the device is moved from an unraveled condition to an engaged condition, may be aligned and connected to effectively connect the edges to each other. Such a device may further include a plurality of friction formations configured to face and contact a towel and a plurality of ridges configured to face and contact a towel holder when the device is in an engaged condition, surrounding a towel holder and supporting a towel.

Full body dryer
A full body dryer. The dryer includes a semi-circular base with a plurality of air tubes extending arcuately upward therefrom. The air tubes are extendable and retractable to adjust a height of the air tubes for use or for compact storage or transport. An upper end of each air tube of the plurality of air tubes includes an air vent to direct forced air toward a portion of an individual's body to dry the individual's body.

Mounting system
A mounting system having a hub installation dispenser system. The hub installation dispenser system having a horizontal port, a horizontal level vial, a vertical port, and a vertical level vial. The horizontal port and the horizontal level vial together aid in determining a level orientation of the hub. The vertical port and the vertical level vial together aid in determining a plumb orientation of the hub. The hub installation dispenser system has an engagement channel configured to receive a tape measure. Hubs are configured to be mountable to a surface. A protrusion extends from the horizontal port and is configured to releasably secure a hub from the hub installation dispenser system.
TOWEL BAR WITH INTEGRATED ROBE HOOK
A towel bar includes a retractable and extendable robe hook. The robe hook may be formed in a wall-mounted first base joined by a towel bar to a wall-mounted second base. A shaft may be extended from the base to reveal the robe hook. When extended, the robe hook provides a location from which objects may be hung. When not needed, the robe hook may be pushed into the base and reside within an internal cavity, thereby concealed from view.
Hardware mounting bracket, assembly and hardware
A hardware mounting bracket is provided with a bracket body adapted to be mounted to a support surface. A rigid retainer is provided on one end of the bracket body to receive hardware supported thereon. At least one elongate biasing retainer is provided on another end of the bracket body spaced apart from the rigid retainer, to engage hardware supported thereon and to provide a loaded surface contact with hardware supported thereon. A hardware mounting assembly, hardware for mounting to a support surface, and method for mounting hardware are also provided.

ILLUMINATING FIXTURE AND METHOD OF SAME
An illuminating fixture includes forming a hub body, the hub body formed to include a cavity and an opening extending through an end of the hub body. The fixture further includes a mounting plate configured to be secured to the end of the hub body with the opening, and the mounting plate is configured to secure the hub body to an external surface. The hub body and/or the mounting plate includes a transparent portion that can illuminate an area surrounding the fixture. The fixture further includes a system of electronic components including a sensor system, a controller, and a light generating unit. The controller is configured to generate a light beam based on input from the sensor system. The sensor system may include a motion detection sensor and/or an ambient light sensor. An optical assembly of the fixture is configured to direct the light beam through the transparent portion.
