  • Systems and methods for mounting electrically powered devices to ceilings and other structures
    Patent number: 10890191
    Abstract: A system for mounting an electrically-powered device such as a ceiling fan or other mounted fixture to supporting structure is disclosed. The system includes a mounting bracket having a receiving portion with a first electrical connector and a hangable structure with a mating member configured to be positioned against the receiving portion. The hangable structure includes a second electrical connector configured to become engaged with the first electrical connector as the hangable structure is moved downwardly into position to rest in proper alignment against the receiving portion. Positioning and alignment is accomplished without further manipulation of the hangable structure after engagement of the first and second electrical connectors. This system allows easier installation of the device by preventing gravity-influenced disengagement of the hangable structure from the mounting bracket once the electrical connection is established.
