A bedspread holder utilizing a series of U-shaped members to support a bedspread off of the ends of a bed with an actuation handle connected to a support leg. The support leg can be rotated from a storage position substantially in the same plane as the U-shaped support member to a use position substantially perpendicular to such support member plane.

A retainer clip is formed from elongated rod or wire as a continuous L-shaped member having a pair of arms substantially at right angles to one another. Each arm has a resilient loop formed by bending the end portion of the arm through at least one complete turn. Each arm of the L-shaped member extends along of two sideboards in end-adjacent relationship with each other, biasing flatly against end-adjacent inner walls of the ingot mold. The end portion of each arm abuts the next adjacent sideboard orthogonally, the arm biasing parallel oppositely disposed sideboards against inner walls of the ingot mold. Each retainer clip thus thrusts one pair of sideboards, in end-adjacent relationship with each other, against coextensive inner walls of the ingot mold, and at the same time, thrusts against portions of two diagonally oppositely disposed sideboards also in end-adjacent relationship with each other. The arms of each retainer clip and the resilient loop in the end-portion of each arm are formed in essentially the same plane. At least one pair of retainer clips is used to retain four sideboards of a conventional hot top of an ingot mold, one retainer clip diagonally oppositely disposed to the other so that the arms of each of the retainer clips bias at least some portion of all the sideboards against the inner walls of the ingot mold in close fitting engagement therewith.

An improved wire rack for holding plastic bags is disclosed. Each side panel of the wire rack is constructed of two pieces of bent wire, one piece thereof forming a solid support between two parts of the other piece parallel to a third part of the other piece. The base of the wire rack is sized and grooved to interact with the two formed wire pieces of the wire rack to lock solidly in place to form a unitary structure.

A foldable wire holder for a plastic bag is disclosed to hold the bag in a vertical position with its mouth snagged in a fully open position on a wire framework formed by a horizontally disposed bag holding frame and an upper portion of an upright supporting framework for the bag holding frame. The wire holder is portable and, in one embodiment, may simply be thrust into the ground where it is to be used, for example, to collect leaves, grass clippings, or other discrete matter. The legs of the supporting frame are provided with stub ends and a lateral support member which sets their depth and keeps the bag holding frame in a horizontal plane while the bag is filled. In another embodiment, a foldable base is provided which is a mirror image of the bag holding frame. Angulation of pivot means on the supporting frame, or of the ends of the bag holding frame, is essential to position the bag holding frame in the horizontal position.

A wire rack for holding a plastic bag open so that it can be filled, is constructed from wire stock, essentially without any welds. The plastic bag has integral handle loops which are held apart in the rack. Essential components of the wire rack are left and right swing panels each formed from a single length of wire stock; a spacer frame comprising plural parallel wire members having wrap-around-ends, wrapped around the upper portions of each panel; and, a laminar base support means connecting the panels, upon which base the bag rests. Each swing panel includes a tab-shaped horizontal upper portion to engage a handle loop of the plastic bag so as to hold it open. Essential freedom from welds dispenses with problems related to failure of the welds. In one particularly preferred embodiment, the wire rack may be collapsed for shipping. It is assembled simply by swinging the panels into mirror-image spaced-apart relationship with each other, and connecting the lower portions of the panels with an impact resistant synthetic resinous support base, preferably by fastener means the heads of which are recessed in the base.
