  • Adjustable mounting arrangement for hooks and the like
    Patent number: 4226394
    Abstract: An arrangement for enabling hooks to be secured to a slotted bar, for holding and displaying kitchen tools and accessories or other items. The slotted bar is hollow, and is selectively engaged by a hook-supporting member having a sector-shaped shank portion with a flat near the longitudinal axis of the member, with an end portion forming at least two shoulders for engaging opposite edges of the slot. The end portion is inserted at a transverse angle with respect to the slot, so that the shoulders engage the edges of the slot and the adjacent internal surfaces of the hollow bar. A cap is threaded onto the body portion to urge the shoulders into firm contact with the bar, thus retaining in position the hook or other device attached to the body portion of the member.

  • Hollow wall fastener
    Patent number: 4196883
    Abstract: A hollow wall fastener using a specially shaped or conventional toggle bolt and a toggle anchor which is pointed and which has an open groove for receiving the toggle bolt. The end of the groove has a threaded portion which cooperates with a threaded portion of an aperture opposite the groove to permit the anchor to pivot with respect to the bolt to a position where the bolt is threadably engaged and locked in the threaded portions of the anchor, forming a "T" configuration behind the surface of the hollow wall. Thereafter the bolt may be rotated, e.g. by turning a screw or fastener body, to draw the anchor tightly against the interior of the hollow wall.
