Abstract: A shower rod mounting assembly for conveniently securing a shower rod between opposing walls of a bath while maintaining an appealing appearance. The assembly consists of a mounting bracket which can be secured to the wall and includes a pair of coaxial tubular flanges fo receiving a shower rod. A snap-on escutcheon conceals the mounting bracket. After mounting the brackets to the opposing walls of the bath, the ends of the shower rod are inserted into the brackets such that the inner flange is matingly received within the shower rod and the shower rod is matingly received within the outer flange of the bracket. The gap between the tubular flanges is configured to snugly receive the shower rod. The escutcheons can now be positioned over the brackets completing assembly of the shower rod.

Abstract: A base for supporting an object such as a cafe table and the like on uneven flooring includes a central support to which are attached two leg assemblies, one rigidly attached and one rotatably attached to opposing faces on the central support. The rotatable leg assembly includes a bolt through an elongaged hole in the leg assembly and a hole through the face of the central support that allow some rotation but limit excessive rotation. Each leg assembly is composed of two angled legs interconnected by a section that is substantially planar so as to complement the face formed on the central support. A frictional pad between the central support and the leg assembly is used to resist rotation of the central support with respect to the rotating leg.
