  • Patent number: 10756524
    Abstract: Improvements in an adjustable box and adapter are disclosed for mounting a junction box directly to a stud, between studs, and to a ceiling using an adaptor and adjusting the position of said junction box. The junction box can be secured to the adaptor using screws. Longitudinal slots on the adaptor allow the adjustment of the position of the junction box along the adaptor by loosening the screws. The screws can be tightened or loosened using the screwheads or attachments on the screws, thereby allowing the adjustment of the junction box from both within the junction box and outside the junction box.

  • Publication number: 20170093140
    Abstract: Improvements in a bracket is disclosed for mounting an electrical box onto a mounting bar. An electrical box can be preinstalled onto the bracket and clamped onto the mounting bar using wings. Bendable tabs can be articulated to secure the bracket and onto a rail. Fasteners are used to secure an electrical junction box onto the bracket and an additional fastener secures the sub assembly to the rail. The tabs can be unbent for removal. An installer can secure the bracket and electrical box using a screw and adjust the position of the bracket on the mounting bar. The bracket provides a low profile assemble that allows the bracket to be installed between the inner surfaces of stud walls.

  • Publication number: 20160334056
    Abstract: Improvements in a bracket is disclosed for mounting an electrical box onto a mounting bar. An electrical box can be preinstalled onto the bracket and clamped onto the mounting bar using wings. Wings on the bracket are biased towards a closed position and can be moved to an open position by squeezing tabs on said wings. A fastener hole on the central body of the bracket allows for installers to preinstall an electrical box onto said bracket. Thus, an installer can secure the bracket and electrical box using a screw and adjust the position of the bracket on the mounting bar.

  • Patent number: 8262043
    Abstract: A universal metal stud clip is a support mechanism for securing one or more electrical boxes or other construction components to metal construction elements such as metal studs. The opposed spring arm design permits the clip to be oriented in any useful way and frictionally secured to metal studs of varying dimensions. Metal stud clips include one or more pair of resilient arms to frictionally engage metal studs. Using two or more pair of resilient arms provides a very stable attachment to the metal stud.
