Abstract

Abstract A bracket for securely mounting to a wall or the like a device having opposed inner surfaces, such as a loudspeaker, the bracket comprising an elongated support member adapted to be mounted to a wall and including opposed, outwardly extending arms positioned to fit within the opposed inner surfaces of the device, the arms including opposed, outwardly extending projections adapted to engage orifices in the opposed inner device surfaces. At least one arm of the bracket is provided with bias means urging the projection thereof in an outwardly direction so as to cause it to enter and be retained in the orifice in the device.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim 108 words
A bracket for securely mounting to a wall or the like a device having sides with opposed inner surfaces, said bracket comprising an elongated support member adapted to be mounted to said wall or the like and having opposed, outwardly extending arms positioned to fit within said opposed inner surfaces of said device, said arms including opposed outwardly-extending projections adapted to engage orifices in said opposed inner surfaces of the device, at least one such arm including bias means urging the projection thereof outwardly, at least one of the projections being adjustable substantially into the plane of the cooperating inner surface and in a close supporting relationship thereto.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 108 words
A bracket for securely mounting to a wall or the like a device having sides with opposed inner surfaces, said bracket comprising an elongated support member adapted to be mounted to said wall or the like and having opposed, outwardly extending arms positioned to fit within said opposed inner surfaces of said device, said arms including opposed outwardly-extending projections adapted to engage orifices in said opposed inner surfaces of the device, at least one such arm including bias means urging the projection thereof outwardly, at least one of the projections being adjustable substantially into the plane of the cooperating inner surface and in a close supporting relationship thereto.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 38 words
The bracket according to claim 1 including locking means for locking the device to the bracket comprising a tamper-resistant locking bolt attachable to an arm of said bracket and adapted to extend through an aperture in said device.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 66 words
The bracket according to claim 2 wherein said locking bolt is attachable to an end portion of said bracket adjacent the outwardly extending projection thereof and is adapted to extend outwardly therefrom in a direction substantially parallel to said projection so as to pass through said aperture in said device adjacent the orifice thereof receiving said projection and lockingly abut the outer surface of said device.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 32 words
The bracket according to claim 3 including cover means for covering the projection-receiving orifice adjacent said aperture receiving said locking bolt, said cover means being held in place by said locking bolt.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 34 words
The bracket of claim 1 wherein at least one of the outwardly extending end portions has an off-set supporting plate and having at least one of the projections mounted on the off-set supporting plate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
The bracket of claim 5 wherein the off-set supporting plate is reinforced by additional supporting members.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 30 words
The bracket of claim 5 wherein the projection on the off-set supporting plate is adjustable substantially into the plane of the cooperating arm and in a close supporting relationship therewith.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 38 words
The bracket according to claim 5 including a tamper-resistant locking bolt attachable to one of said arms and positioned to extend outwardly therefrom through an aperture in said device and lockingly abut an outer surface of said device.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 32 words
The bracket according to claim 8 additionally including cover means for covering the orifice receiving the projection of said one arm, said cover means being held in position by said locking bolt.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 16 words
The bracket of claim 1 wherein the opposed outwardly extending arms have substantially parallel outer surfaces.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 43 words
The bracket of claim 10 wherein at least one of the outwardly-extending arms has an off-set supporting plate which is reinforced by additional supporting members attached to the bracket, at least one of the projections being adjustably mounted on the off-set supporting plate.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 18 words
The bracket of claim 11 wherein the projection is adjustable substantially into the plane of the cooperating arm.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 51 words
The bracket of claim 10 including a tamper-resistant locking bolt attachable to an arm of said bracket and adapted to extend outwardly therefrom in a direction substantially parallel to the projection thereof so as to pass through an aperture in said device and lockingly abut an outer surface of the device.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 41 words
The bracket of claim 1 wherein said substantially parallel outer surfaces of said arms are of sufficient area and fit sufficiently snugly to require the alignment of said device with said bracket to be substantially maintained during demounting of said device.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim 25 words
The bracket of claim 1 wherein the biasing means causes the projections to seat in the orifices when the device is mounted on the bracket.
