ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an apparatus for conveniently storing and retrieving cords associated with electronic devices or other power devices. The apparatus comprises a plate having opposed top and bottom edges and opposed left and right edges. In one embodiment, for each of the cords a pair of spaced-apart, opposed hooks is mounted on the plate near opposed edges, with each of the hooks comprising a stem having a first end in contact with the plate and a second, opposite end. An arm extends perpendicularly outwardly from the stem second end facing away from the other hook of its pair so cords can be wrapped around the pair. In one embodiment, the plate is made of a polymer material and the posts are molded into the plate. In another embodiment, the plate also comprises apertures to enable the plate to be adapted as an electrical outlet cover.
