System in which a stanchion and an attached accessory can be moved and locked to any one of a number of location plates, each plate having a socket to receive a cap at the lower end of the stanchion, and threaded means for locking the cap and socket together.
A bracket for attaching a rail to a post. The bracket comprises a means for attaching said bracket to a post and means to provide said bracket with added support. Preferably, the bracket is bread shaped to fit a specific rail style well-known in the art. The bracket further comprises flanges to allow the bracket to be fastened to upright posts. The flanges are adapted to provide against vertical movement and against lateral movement through their opposing locations and their angled surface. Additionally, the bracket comprises an extended base to provide increased strength in response to force exerted on the attached rail.
A rotatable and transferable stanchion assembly includes an elongate body having an upper end portion adapted to receive and secure thereto an accessory, and a lower end portion. A cap is mounted on the lower end portion of the body and has a lower portion with an outer external surface. A location plate, which is fastened to a flat surface, has a socket formed therein shaped for receiving the lower portion of the cap. A stud and bolt assembly secure the cap to the location plate in such a position that the lower portion of the cap is disposed within the socket of the location plate wherein the body and cap are adapted to rotate relative to the location plate. A locking plate of the present invention rotatably locks the elongate body and cap in place with respect to the location plate at a desired angle of rotation.
The present invention discloses an improved pedestal mounting assembly and in particular a pedestal mounting assembly that has a removable post. The post and base are locked together by opposed mounting teeth located respectively on the post and base. The post is inserted into the base, rotated through about 90.degree. until the teeth engage locking the post to the base. To remove the post from the base, the post must be raised to disengage the teeth and permit rotation of the post with respect to the base. To facilitate mounting and release, a key and slot with stops are provided to control rotation and axial movement.
The present invention comprises a sheet metal leg retaining anchor having an upturned perimeter flange edge. The perimeter edge includes a plurality of holes there through and a threaded nut is secured centrally thereof. In the illustrative embodiment the anchor is placed within a roto-molded mold for the particular leg supported structure/cabinet being produced therein. The upturned perimeter flange edges are oriented to extend into the mold, that is, in the opposite direction from what will be the bottom end of the structure/cabinet from which the legs will extend. The bin is then formed by the roto-molding process whereby the plastic material flows over and around the exposed surfaces of the anchor. Specifically, the plastic flows through the holes in the perimeter flange edges providing for a strong mechanical locking or securing of the anchor to and with the plastic structure/cabinet. The legs are threadably engaged with the anchor and firmly anchored thereby to the structure/cabinet.
Vehicle desks (20, 220) are disclosed which are spaced from a front vehicle seat (32) to present the work surface (24) of a rotatable shelf (52) to the driver or the front seat passenger. A rotatable arm (58) facilitates placement of the shelf in a convenient position. When not needed, the major portion of the desk is easily removed from the vehicle.
