A holiday light strand organizer that is amenable to the winding and storage of holiday light strands, extension cords, and like articles, after such are first used, in the configuration of a drawer unit comprising a carrier portion having a frame structure about which the article is wound, and a storage case portion in which the carrier portion is inserted for storage. A frame with a wide cross section is provided, so that conducting strands are not excessively flexed or creased when wound for storage. A holder for the plug or socket portion of a holiday light strand or like article is a separate position from the strand, so that the ends of the strand do not become tangled and may be easily located for the testing of the strand. The carrier has special provision in the form of a clip to accept the plug or socket portion of the holiday light strand so that it does not become tangled, and can be found for testing of the light strand. When the holiday light strand or like article is to be used, the carrier portion is removed leaving the storage case portion in place. The carrier portion is taken to where the stored articles are to be used.

Apparatus for storing strings of lights and accessories includes a container with a side wall having an upwardly and inwardly extending outer surface, between upper and lower radial flanges, on which the strings of light are wrapped, and subsequently unwrapped, as the container rotates about a vertical pivot mounted on a base. The container has an internal cavity accessible through a central lid covered opening in which accessories, such as ornaments and the like, are supported on circumferentially spaced, radially inwardly directed hangers alternately secured at staggered heights to the container side wall. Below the hangers are compartments for other accessories, especially fragile ornaments, which extend around a vertical post supporting a large tree topping ornament. A hood can extend down over the side wall to protect the strings of lights. A handle or hook for lifting and hanging the apparatus can project through an opening in the hood.

A compact, multiple halogen bulb storage container used to temporarily hold and protect a plurality of halogen bulbs. The container includes an outer, rigid box with a closable lid. Disposed inside the rigid case is an insert designed to hold a plurality of halogen bulbs in a spaced-apart, longitudinally aligned configuration. The insert may be made of elastic or rigid foam material that completely fills the inside central space in the rigid box. In one embodiment, the bulb receiving spaces are aligned on the top surface of the insert holder insert so that the bulb may be horizontally aligned and vertically inserted in to the bulb receiving space. In a second embodiment, the insert is longitudinally aligned in the rigid case with the bulb receiving spaces longitudinally aligned inside the bulb holder. The bulbs slide through the end of the bulb receiving space. Each embodiment includes at least one bulb end space formed near the exposed end of the bulb receiving space that enables a user to easily grasp the end of the halogen bulb to remove it from the insert.

A protective cover is placed over a rack of cathode ray tube components to prevent contamination of the components and/or moisture damage to the components. Some cathode ray tube components, particularly funnels, are stockpiled so that assembly lines can be kept running even if the supply of the component becomes temporarily exhausted. However, these stockpiled funnels must be protected while in storage. The protective cover described herein can be fastened in place around a rack or pallet containing a stockpile of funnels. The protective cover can also incorporate moisture-absorbent elements to prevent moisture damage to the stockpiled funnels.

The storage device for decorative light strands is a storage unit designed to house strands of decorative lights such as those used for Christmas and other holidays. This unit provides a convenient means through which the lights can be safely stored without the strands breaking or becoming entangled. The storage device consists of a cylindrical receptacle with a locking lid featuring a handle and from which extrudes a cylindrical core. The strands of lights would be wound on to the core, which can be rotated when the handle on the lid is pushed downward and turned. A trio of hooks attached to the bottom of the core would ensure that the lights remained securely in place. Three elastic bands attached to the underside of the lid would be stretched across the lights and attached to the hooks to securely hold the lights. The lid would then be locked in place on the storage receptacle using incorporated locking clips. This unit would make decorating more enjoyable, eliminating the wasted time and frustration associated with untangling strands of lights or locating and replacing lights which have been broken due to improper storage.

A carton for holding one or more articles, for example light bulbs, includes an article engaging panel having at least one retaining aperture provided in the engaging panel for receiving and retaining at least one article such that one portion of the at least one article protrudes therethrough, a pair of opposed side walls extending upwardly from the engaging panel to shield the one portion and terminating at the respective free upper edges of the side walls to allow access to the one portion, and a cover arrangement for containing the other portion of the at least one article. The side walls extends away from the cover arrangement. The cover arrangement includes a series of hingedly interconnected panels including a pair of opposed terminal panels. The terminal panels of the cover arrangement are connected to the side walls respectively to form a tubular structure for enveloping the other portion of the at least one article.

The present invention provides a dispensing unit with a sealed enclosure containing a pill or pills which is provided by a cover attached to a flat base portion. The flat base portion is attached to a commonly used object using a first adhesive. The cover has a top bubble portion to provide space for the pill or pills and a bottom flange which is sealed to the flat base portion using a second adhesive. A tab portion of the cover is used to remove the cover from the base portion to access the pill enclosure. The pill or pills are attached to the top surface of the base portion using a third adhesive. The base portion is not displaced from the object when the cover is removed. The user can easily remove the pill or pills from the base portion by hand as the base portion remains attached to the object. A number of dispensing units can be made together on a larger base assembly with perforations to provide each individual base portion of a dispensing unit.
