CA 2492967

The invention relates to an organizing device for organizing pens, screwdrivers, toothbrushes, tools, Christmas tree lights and branches, and the like; objects that are nominally long and cylindrical. The flexible elastomer material has holes with narrow passages to them that deflect due to the elastomeric properties of the material that permit the entry of an object into the hole from a perimeter wherein they are held tight as the elastomer at the narrow passage returns to a neutral state. Additional flexible flanges permit a variety of object sizes to be held within the hole, the flexible flanges flexing to accommodate the variety of sizes while still retaining the objects. The device or combination of such devices comprises a plurality of such holes so that a collection of tools or objects can be held therein organizing them together. Certain objects, like heavy screw drivers, would benefit by the additional support provided by being inserted into a hole in each of two sequentially placed Organizing Devices to prevent a moment caused to the tool by a heavy handle from forcing the tool out of place. The device is generally used in conjunction with a variety of support means, such as extruded, bent, cast, or injection molded bracket, each providing some means to mount to a surface such as by way of fasteners, adhesive tape, or magnets. Thereby the invention could be positioned to a wooden bench or shelf, a wall, or to the surfaces of refridgerators or toolboxes. The invention is configurable as a strap that can be formed into a compact assembly when the two ends are fastened together to form a compact device for organizing objects, and can be attached around table legs, ducts, or a workers arms, thighs, wrists, etc. Alone, the invention can be hung to a support structure by one of its holes and supporting other objects with the other holes, such as by hanging a Christmas tree light to a tree branch, with the purpose of orienting it visibly outwards. The invention can have a variety of forms, such as disc shaped, rectangular, or be comprised of a number of like devices strung together on a common support, or be decorative in nature to appear like a star or snowflake for example in the case of a Christmas tree ornament that is self supporting on the tree's branches.
