Abstract:
A bathing system assembly has; an accessory such as a grab bar, a seat or the like; a first mounting bracket affixed to a structural wall; and a second mounting bracket attaching the accessory to a bath wall. The second mounting bracket cooperates with the first mounting bracket for easy installation of the bath wall and accessory to the structural wall, e.g., stud wall. The bathing system wall including the accessory and the second mounting bracket is manipulated by an installer so that the second mounting bracket and the first mounting bracket cooperate to support the wall and the grab bar. Because the accessory is attached directly to the second mounting bracket, flanges and attachment means for hardware are eliminated. The accessory may be attached to the second mounting bracket through the bath wall at a first location and attached to the first mounting bracket at a second location.
Abstract:
The invention disclosed provides a rotary coupling mechanism that securely attaches common household fixtures to a wall. The invention is comprised of a wall bracket, a base bracket, a cam pin, and two mounting screws. Flanges on the base bracket rotationally engage flanges on the wall bracket and the cam pin inserted through the base bracket rotates to hold the flanges and secure the base bracket to the wall bracket. An alternate embodiment of the invention is comprised of a wall bracket and a base bracket having flanges with canted surfaces. A locking pin holds the brackets together after the flanges are rotationally engaged. For each application of the coupling mechanism, a decorative body conceals the apparatus. The decorative body is rigidly connected or pivotally connected to a decorative cap. The decorative cap retains various household fixtures such as paper holders, towel racks, or shelves.
