  • Patent number: 6384334
    Abstract: An electrical junction box includes a box enclosure having an open face supporting a pair of downwardly extending shorter length tabs on its upper edge and a pair of upwardly extending longer tabs on its lower edge. A riser having a base for attachment to a floor track within a wall or partition includes an opening formed therein to define a box mounting portion of the riser. The box mounting portion of the riser further includes a pair of upper slots having a spacing therebetween corresponding to the spacing between the upper tabs of the junction box. The box mounting portion of the riser further includes a pair of lower slots having a spacing therebetween corresponding to the upwardly extending lower tabs of the junction box. The slots are formed as generally rectangular punched U-shaped members having rear surfaces which define respective apertures therein. The upper tabs and lower tabs of the junction box define corresponding apertures.

  • Patent number: 5423499
    Abstract: A bracket device for mounting electrical devices in the interior space of hollow partitions having a front wall and a back wall with an anterior space therebetween typically comprising: (1) a base capable of being fixedly attached to the floor; (ii) a riser extending upwardly from the base, the riser having front and rear faces; and (iii) supporting means for supporting a cover ring and a junction box which extends into the interior space. The supporting means can include an annular plate having front and rear faces attached to an upper portion of the riser, the annular plate further having attaching means such as mounting holes for attaching the cover ring to its front face and the junction box to its rear face. Preferably, the device also includes (iv) a stabilizing arm extending rearwardly from the device to the rear wall of the partition. The arm can be detachable from the device.

  • Patent number: 5288041
    Abstract: A bracket device for mounting electrical devices in the interior of hollow partitions having a front wall and a back wall with a hollow space therebetween typically comprising: (i) a base capable of being fixedly attached to the floor; (ii) a riser extending upwardly from the base; and (iii) an annular plate having front and rear faces attached to the upper portion of the riser and having an opening therethrough sufficiently large to receive an electrical device accessible from the exterior side of the front wall, the annular plate also having means such as mounting holes for attaching a cover ring to its front face and a junction box to its rear face. Preferably, the device also includes (iv) a stabilizing arm extending rearwardly from the annular plate, the arm being sufficiently long to extend to the rear wall of the partition. The stabilizing rm can be attached either to an upper segment or a lower segment of the annular plate.
