Box for pencils

An apparatus is provided for mounting a coat rack, bookshelf or the like to a wall panel. The apparatus includes a pair of side supports which support opposing ends of the coat racks, bookshelves or the like. The apparatus is provided with a mounting mechanism which allows the apparatus to mount to either a top edge of the wall panel or to a set of slotted standards on a front surface of the wall panel. One of two specific mounting mechanisms are provided. The first, an L-shaped bracket, allows the apparatus to be mounted over the top edge of the wall panel. The second, a V-shaped hook plate, allows the apparatus to be mounted into slotted standards. Thus, a single pair of side supports accommodates either mounting arrangement. A leveling mechanism is also provided for leveling the apparatus.

A mounting apparatus for mounting to a slotted standard of a wall panel system is provided. The apparatus includes a pair of mounting brackets which engage a pair of slots in the slotted standard. Spacing between the mounting brackets is selectively varied. In use, the pair of brackets is first positioned for convenient insertion into slots of the slotted standard. Then the spacing of the brackets is increased to clamp the brackets securely to the slotted standard. The provision of variable spacing between the pair of brackets also allows the apparatus to be mounted to a variety of slotted standards having different slot spacing. The mounting apparatus thus allows an office lamp or the like to be easily detachably mounted to a wall panel system.

Detachable mounting accessory apparatus for use with wall panel systems

An personal accessory holder that is adapted to be demountably affixed to an existing upright standard. The personal accessory holder of the preferred embodiment essentially includes an elongated cylindrical body having an adjustable fastener apparatus for mounting the body to the upright standard. A channel is disposed through the cylindrical body, parallel to the longitudinal axis. The channel slidably retains the fastener apparatus for tightening the body to the upright standard. A first end of the cylindrical body has a flange end having an oval neck portion with chordal sides for receiving a clothes hanger's hook member. A dovetail aperture is disposed in the first end. The dovetail aperture has an opening at the center of the channel and has an adjacent cavity. The cavity can retain a spherical member of a special hanger. The fastener apparatus includes an elongated fastener member having a first end with a bolt-combination disposed proximal to the first end of the cylindrical body, and a second end with a hook member proximal to a second end of the cylindrical body.
