Abstract: An outlet box for mounting a fixture, such as a fan or a light, from a ceiling. Adjustable hanger screw mountings permit the mounting of a wide variety of fixtures to the box. Adjustability is attained by attaching the hanger screw mountings to the ends of a mounting arm which is pivotally connected to a top plate of the outlet box.

Abstract: An extensible hanger support providing a spanning connection between two spaced-apart joists or the like for supporting therefrom such items as ceilings fans, lights fixtures and the like. The support includes first and second extensible members which are telescopically axially movable between a fully collapsed condition and a fully extended condition. These extensible members employ cooperative means which are normally in threaded engagement in such a manner that high speed rotation of one of the members relative to the other results in axial movement toward either the fully collapsed condition or the fully extended condition depending upon the direction of rotation. Each of these extensible members has a free end which carries joist engaging means for respectively engaging a ceiling joist.

Abstract: A two part tubular wall or ceiling hanger mounted behind the same having means to determine the correct height from wall or ceiling and carriage bolts to fit square holes for easier assembly of the hanger plate or pan.
