Abstract
Abstract The assembly includes an adaptor for attachment to a wall and a base detachably mounted to the adaptor. The adaptor is channelshaped and includes upper and lower flanges each having an aperture. The base includes an upper end received within the upper aperture and a lower end seated upon the lower flange adjacent the lower aperture. The base also includes upper and lower shoulder portions engageable with associated abutment portions on the adaptor to preclude rotation of the base relative to the adaptor in directions both parallel and transverse to the wall.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
158 words
A wall bracket assembly for supporting an article, the assembly comprising: a. adaptor means adapted to be attached to a wall and including: 1. a back portion, 2. an upper outstanding element providing an upper abutment means spaced from the back portion, and 3. a lower outstanding element providing a lower abutment means spaced below the upper abutment means, b. base means detachably mounted to the adaptor means and including: 1. upper shoulder means operatively disposed between the back portion and the upper abutment means in engageable relation with said upper abutment means, 2. lower shoulder means operatively disposed in seating engagement on the lower abutment means whereby to transfer vertical load from the base means to the adaptor means, and 3. an outstanding support portion intermediate the upper and lower shoulder means adapted to carry the article, c. interengagement between associated shoulder and abutment means substantially precluding relative rotation between the adaptor means and the base means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
158 words
A wall bracket assembly for supporting an article, the assembly comprising: a. adaptor means adapted to be attached to a wall and including: 1. a back portion, 2. an upper outstanding element providing an upper abutment means spaced from the back portion, and 3. a lower outstanding element providing a lower abutment means spaced below the upper abutment means, b. base means detachably mounted to the adaptor means and including: 1. upper shoulder means operatively disposed between the back portion and the upper abutment means in engageable relation with said upper abutment means, 2. lower shoulder means operatively disposed in seating engagement on the lower abutment means whereby to transfer vertical load from the base means to the adaptor means, and 3. an outstanding support portion intermediate the upper and lower shoulder means adapted to carry the article, c. interengagement between associated shoulder and abutment means substantially precluding relative rotation between the adaptor means and the base means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
15 words
an upper outstanding element providing an upper abutment means spaced from the back portion, and
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
15 words
an upper outstanding element providing an upper abutment means spaced from the back portion, and
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
lower shoulder means operatively disposed in seating engagement on the lower abutment means whereby to transfer vertical load from the base means to the adaptor means, and
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
lower shoulder means operatively disposed in seating engagement on the lower abutment means whereby to transfer vertical load from the base means to the adaptor means, and
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
60 words
A base assembly as defined in claim 1, in which: d. the base means includes an alignment tongue providing transverse portions of the lower shoulder means, and e. the lower element includes a flange having an aperture operatively receiving the tongue and providing transverse portions of the lower abutment means engageable by associated transverse portions of the lower shoulder means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
154 words
A bracket assembly as defined in claim 1, in which: d. the upper shoulder means includes a front portion and opposed transverse portions, e. the lower shoulder means includes an end portion and opposed transverse portions defining a tongue, f. the upper element includes a flange having an aperture operatively receiving the upper shoulder means and having a front margin portion and opposed transverse margin portions operatively engageable by associated front and transverse poRtions of the upper shoulder means, g. the lower element includes a flange having a seating portion engageable by the end portion and an aperture operatively receiving the tongue and having opposed transverse margin portions engageable by associated transverse portions of the lower shoulder means, and h. transverse margin portions are operatively engageable by associated transverse shoulder portions to preclude rotation of the base means relative to the adaptor means in a plane substantially parallel to the plane of the wall.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
36 words
an outstanding support portion intermediate the upper and lower shoulder means adapted to carry the article, c. interengagement between associated shoulder and abutment means substantially precluding relative rotation between the adaptor means and the base means.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
36 words
an outstanding support portion intermediate the upper and lower shoulder means adapted to carry the article, c. interengagement between associated shoulder and abutment means substantially precluding relative rotation between the adaptor means and the base means.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
26 words
a lower outstanding element providing a lower abutment means spaced below the upper abutment means, b. base means detachably mounted to the adaptor means and including:
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
26 words
a lower outstanding element providing a lower abutment means spaced below the upper abutment means, b. base means detachably mounted to the adaptor means and including:
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
52 words
A bracket assembly as defined in claim 1, in which: d. resilient means is disposed between the base means and the back portion of the adaptor means tending to operatively urge the lower shoulder means outwardly in resisting relation to the downward load of the outstanding support portion of the base means.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
