Abstract
Abstract A pin suction-cup provided with a seat in the body of the suction-cup itself where an ordinary, interchangeable and protruding needle can be fitted. This pin suction-cup has been designed to be easily applied, in the most rapid and rational way, on the surfaces of panels (made of any material, transparent and non-transparent). The protruding needle or pin acts as a grip, a hanger and a point of support for garments or any other item (to be displayed in a shop-window, show, etc., or for interior decorating).
