ABSTRACT:
Removable anchors provide for the stabilization and securing of perforated panel hangers, on a semi-permanent basis, through the use of a formed semi-rigid anchor member inserted into one or more apertures of a perforated support panel, embracing at least a portion of the body or shank of at least one hanger and includes at least one end portion designed with one or more deformable barbs to which pull tab members are attached. After being inserted through the aperture of the perforated panel, without special tools, anchor barbs return to original shape locking behind the panel, the pull tab member extending through panel aperture to remain in front of perforated panel. When hanger removal is desired, pull tab elements attached to the anchor barbs are pulled and latched from the front of the perforated panel, causing the compacting of the anchor barb portions, they fold against the anchor body allowing anchor to exit through the panel perforation. The stabilizing anchor is preferably fabricated of a thermoplastic material which provides a resilience and memory adapted to this application. The anchor member may be molded separately or fashioned directly onto a hanger fixture.
