Appl. No.:

29/121495

US Patent:

7018149, Mar 28, 2006

Filed:

Mar 11, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/798057

Inventors:

John Freese - Evanston IL, US
Kristopher Baker - Rolling Meadows IL, US

Assignee:

Credo Technology Corporation - Broadview IL

International Classification:

B23C 1/20

US Classification:

409182, 14413695

Abstract:

A preferred embodiment router is disclosed having a housing which supports a motor wherein the housing is vertically movable along a pair of spaced vertical guide posts of a base structure and wherein the router includes a flexible baffle which can vertically expand and contract as the housing is moved relative to the base structure and wherein at least one post has a coil spring located within the baffle which is configured to bias the housing away from the base structure, with the coil spring having a generally hourglass shaped configuration. The configuration has outer end portions with larger coil diameters, both of which transition to a center portion with a smaller coil diameter. The hourglass configured coil minimizes the possibility of the coil buckling which could result in a loss of spring force as well as a distortion of the shape of the baffle. Also, the amount of travel that is permitted by the hourglass spring is larger than would be achieved by a comparable uniform coil diameter spring made from the same material, because a number of coils can be telescoped together to produce a smaller compressed or solid height of the spring.

Assignee:

Bretford Manufacturing, Inc. - Franklin Park IL

International Classification:

F16M 11/20

US Classification:

2481887, 2481881

Abstract:

A K-base for a pole mounting system includes a central hub formed as a pentagon with legs extending from four of the five sides of the pentagon. The ends of the legs may splay to form clefts configured to receive a flat outer perimeter of the central hub so that the legs may be bolted to the central hub. The ends of the legs and the fifth unoccupied side of the pentagon may be formed to approximate a disk. In the central region of the central hub, on the top surface, an indentation may be formed to approximate an outer perimeter of a pole configured to be attached to the K-base. On the bottom surface, the central region may contain a depression sized to receive a washer and optionally a weight. Bolts extending through the washer and optionally through the weight may be used to connect the K-base to a pole. The washer may be formed to distribute stress from the bolts on the central hub.

US Classification:

248407, 248408, 248146, 248423

Abstract:

A pole mounting system includes a pole having at least one channel, and a spike having a finger configured to be received in the channel of the pole. The finger is attached to a neck that is configured to extend out of the channel and connect to a connector. The connector may be configured in a number of different ways depending on the particular type of device to be suspended on the pole. For example, the connector may be configured to connect to different types of arms that may be used to hold a flat panel display, or may be configured to hold other things such as a table. The finger is elongate and configured to engage the interior of the channel when the weight of the flat panel display is placed on the spike. Optionally, a spring-loaded pin may be provided to temporarily hold the spike in place while the spike is screwed into place in the channel through the use of set screws. Wire management may be provided within the channel.
