  • Patent number: 5487524
    Abstract: A mounting assembly for an electrical appliance such as television receiver or the like that has a mounting arm that extends from a mounting bracket affixed to a support surface includes a forced or vibration absorption assembly. This assembly includes an interface member which separates the mounting arm from the mounting bracket and mounting surface and absorbs forces to vibrations and other dynamic loading upon the structure or mounting assembly. The interface member is compressible and permits the mounting arm to have an articulation angle of much greater than would be obtained by a rigid mounting arm rigidly attached to a mounting bracket.

  • Patent number: 5383641
    Abstract: A security mounting assembly for an electrical appliance, such as a color television set includes a mounting member which can be attached to a substantially flat support surface by a series of fasteners. The mounting member is rotatably connected to a support tray, which has an upwardly extending flange extending on a portion of the perimeter of the support tray. The television is held in place on the support member by a series of fasteners and is held in such a manner such that the television may not be readily removed from the support tray.

  • Patent number: 5209445
    Abstract: A security mounting assembly for an electrical appliance, such as a color television set includes a television cabinet having an engagement member formed therewith and a separate support member having a retaining flange which receives the engagement member. The engagement member may include a lug or foot integrally formed in the television cabinet and extending therefrom. The retaining flange extends from the support member to form a lip extending along a frontal edge thereof which defines a recess into which the engagement lug or foot projects. The cabinet is held in place on the support member by a series of fasteners and is held in such a manner that the cabinet engagement members may not be readily removed from the support member retaining flange.

  • Patent number: 5169116
    Abstract: A mounting fixture for an electrical appliance such as a television receiver includes a mounting lug with a substantially planar support member and a generally cylindrical base member extending therefrom, wherein the base member and support member are integrally formed with each other and are further interconnected by radial ribs integrally formed with said base and support members. The base member may include either a fastener integral therewith or a fastener receptacle disposed in a boss, which are used to attach the mounting lug to a support surface within a depression thereon by way of either a fastening nut or screw. The support member further includes a layer of contact pressure sensitive adhesive which permits the mounting lug to be easily secured to the cabinet or exterior of the electrical appliance.

  • Patent number: 5127617
    Abstract: A mounting assembly for an electrical appliance such as a television receiver or the like that has a mounting bracket which is capable of being mounted either on a horizontal surface, such as a ceiling, or on a vertical surface, such as a wall. The mounting bracket rotatably receives a support arm which extends from the mounting bracket to a support tray upon which the appliance is mounted. The support arm has a generally vertical first portion and a generally horizontal second portion. An extension of the support arm second portion extends transversely from the support arm and supportingly contacts the supper tray, which is fixed to a pair of opposing endcaps of the extension. An adjustment means interconnects the support tray with the support arm and permits the elevation of the support tray to be selectively adjusted.
