Cavor's Gravity Devices was a company that had a location on Deep Space 9's Promenade at address 01-332. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine set decoration)

This was listed on a directory graphic on the Promenade created by the art department, and contains a number of joke references to other media, such as this reference to H.G. Wells' The First Men in The Moon, in which a Mr. Cavor originated a material called cavorite, supposedly impervious to gravity and able to shield other materials from its effects. It was used to shield a craft from the Earth's pull, allowing Cavor to travel to the moon.
While Cavor's never appeared in the series, the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Millennium novel The Fall of Terok Nor has a scene with Benjamin Sisko and Vash talking outside it.
