Abstract:
A wall-mounted bathroom accessory support assembly for supporting a bathroom accessory and adapted to be affixed to a bathroom wallboard. The support assembly includes: a mounting bracket; a fastener assembly adapted to affix the mounting bracket to a wallboard; and an accessory post assembly including an accessory post and a post adapter permanently affixed to the accessory post. The accessory post includes a wall defining a central body and a distal portion configured to support a bathroom accessory. The accessory post wall defines an open interior region and an access opening extending through the wall. The post adapter is disposed within the interior region of the accessory post wall and including an axially extending pedestal that includes a cantilevered flange. The mounting bracket includes a catch mechanism. The post adapter cantilevered flange engages the catch mechanism to releasably secure the accessory post assembly to the mounting bracket.
Abstract:
A grab bar is attached to a wall with at least one anchor assembly. The anchor assembly can be removed and repeatedly used as needed. The anchor assembly includes a vertical support beam, a flange arm assembly having a base portion and an arm portion, and a spring. The spring is attached to the vertical support beam and cooperates with the arm portion to hold the flange arm assembly in place during installation. The base portion of the flange arm assembly has a flange that fits against a wall surface of the wall structure, and the arm portion is received within a slot formed within the vertical support beam. The flange prevents the flange arm assembly from falling behind the wall structure.
Abstract:
A mounting method and a mounting apparatus to enable the level mounting of a first article to a second article. In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, an apparatus for mounting a first article to a second article to permit the level mounting of the first article comprises a bracket for fixed attachment to the second article, the bracket configured to receive the first article. The bracket has a level built into it, such that the bracket is installed such that the first article when mounted to said bracket is level.
Abstract:
A removable holder comprises a mounting base (10) and item holding device (12). The mounting base (10) is intended to be semi-permanently attached to a vertical wall, and the item holding device (12) is designed to be manually mounted within a tapered dovetail receptacle (26) formed in the mounting base for manual removal from the mounting base when not in use. The item holding device (12) incorporates a male tapered dovetail section (32) for mating into the female dovetail section (26) of the mounting base (10). A locking tab (46) is formed with the mounting base (10) in a manner to be biased outwardly to snap into a locking position against a top surface (40) of the male dovetail section (32) to lock the male dovetail section in place. Pressing on the locking tab (46) pushes it out of the way so that the male dovetail section (32) of the item holding device (12) can be manually removed from the female dovetail angled surfaces (26) of the mounting base (10). The item holding device (12) comprises a “U”-shaped cradle (30) having a series of “V”-shaped cradle interior members (56) made of a relatively soft and deformable rubber material so as to readily deform against the weight of an item placed in the cradle member (30), thereby intending to grasp onto the item to help retain the item within the cradle member. The cradle member (30) also includes a resilient rubber locking strap (54) for stretching over and locking against the outside cradle member in order to retain the item placed therein.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a receptacle having a base part, a cover part which can be drawn over the base part and a resiliently mounted catch for joining the two parts together. A means for safeguarding against unauthorized removal of the cover part from the base part provides the catch with a crown in a cavity in the base part and associates with the crown a locking mechanism which is also disposed in the cavity and can be actuated from without only by a tool.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a mounting device on hardware or fittings, especially shelves and holders, which contain at least one base part which is to be fastened to a wall or the like and which has a bearing surface which can be pressed onto the base part and completely conceals it in the installed state. To create a theft-proof connection between these parts two kinds of fastening means are used. The one fastening means associated with the fully installed state of the cover part prevents, in the assembled state, any even partial unintentional separation of the cover part from the base part, and in the separated state permits the cover part to be removed completely. The other fastening means does permit a partial removal of the cover part from the base part in the assembled state, and complete removal in the separated state, but is accessible only when the cover part is in an at least partially removed state of the cover part which can be achieved only after the release of the first fastening means.
Abstract:
A product dispenser mounting system includes a dispenser holder body configured to support a product dispenser; and a mounting apparatus configured to fixedly mount on a support object and to removably connect to the dispenser holder body in one or more orientations such that dispenser holder body is maintained in a selected one of the one or more orientations when the dispenser holder body is connected to the mounting apparatus. The system may also include at least one actuation sensor configured to detect actuation of the product dispenser.
Abstract:
A dispensing unit has a wall-mountable support device and a dispenser. The support device has a mounting body having a foot from which an engagement projection protrudes, a covering body having a gripping portion with a collar engageable with the dispenser, and security means suitable for forming a snap-engagement between the covering body and the mounting body. The engagement projection has a predefined configuration for univocally coupling with a bottom of a bottle of the dispenser.
Abstract:
A wall-mounted dispenser for supplying and removing a liquid, in particular a detergent substance or a care product for personal hygiene, the dispenser including a replaceable container (1) for the liquid and a wall mount (2) for mounting the wall-mounted dispenser on a structural facility. The container is provided with a dispensing unit (6) for the dosed removal of liquid from the container, and the wall mount has an upper holding element (13) and a lower holding element (17) for holding and securing the container against unauthorized removal from the wall mount. The wall mount has at least two mounting parts (9, 10) that can be moved or adjusted in relation to each other. An upper mounting part (9) is securely connected to the upper holding element (13) and a lower mounting part (10) is securely connected to the lower holding element (17), respectively.
