  • Patent number: 11815126
    Abstract: The Twist-Base Mount couples a single-screw, substrate-penetrating element with an elastically-deformable, concave base element that, once installed, acts as a spring, exerting a downward force upon the substrate around its circumference. Because the base element is rigidly attached to the substrate-penetrating element, a force applied to the Mount parallel to the plane of the substrate is offset by the pressure of the perimeter of the base element against the substrate, resulting in additional strength. The Mount's single-screw, self-boring element allows quick and easy installation. The spring-like base-element permits 360-degree rotation of the Mount while maintaining uniform pressure against the substrate, thereby preserving strength regardless of rotational positioning. The mount remains economical in relation to mounts of similar strength and rotational adjustability due to its insert-molded construction.

  • Publication number: 20220390063
    Abstract: An assembly (100, 200) is disclosed. The assembly (100, 200) includes a mounting portion (112) and an implement-retaining portion (114, 214). The mounting portion (112) includes a body portion (112a) and a substrate-penetrating portion (112b). The body portion (112a) is defined by a substrate-engaging portion (112a1) and an implement retainer interface portion (112a2). The implement-retaining portion (114, 214) is removably-connected to the implement retainer interface portion (112a2).
