Holding apparatus
An apparatus for a vehicle having a carriage and a rotatable insert configured to be moved between a stowed position and an open position in the carriage. The carriage is configured to be mounted within a side-ledge and includes a first carriage panel having a first slot and a second slot. The first slot has an arcuate curve thereto and the second slot is linear. The rotatable insert includes a first insert panel and a compartment. The first insert panel includes first and second protrusions extending therefrom that are configured to respectively engage the first and second slots such that, as the rotatable insert is moved to the open position, the first and second protrusions travel respectively up the first and second slots. The compartment that is hidden when in the stowed position and can carry at least one item when in the open position.
Pole mounting system for lockable key housing
The mounting system and device secures a container, such as a lockable container to a pole. A housing restricts access to the fasteners and other attachments that secure the container to the pole. A unitary fastener, such as a U-bolt, secures the housing to the pole. The two ends of the unitary fastener enter a first section of a rear wall and a second section of the rear wall to attach to the housing at an interior attachment surface. A curvature in the rear wall separates the first section and the second section of the rear wall. The curvature of the rear wall contacts the pole. The housing, the guard plate, and the container cover the fasteners to reduce access to the fasteners.
Gastric tube stabilizer
The disclosure includes a device made of a lightweight plastic that will hook around the neck like a hanger, releasing with very little force to prevent injury. The device hangs down the front of the body to form a loop for stability. Down the center will be a retractable feeding tube holder arm that can adjust 180 degrees up and down and left to right, and lock-in any position in-between on a universal joint. The arm also will have a quick release to avoid injury. The arm will have an alternating clip to attach to variable size tubes as needed. This will allow for everyday support and hands free interaction with the tube. A pair of support arms terminate in a support pad each and attach to the universal joint. A method of supporting a gastric tube on a patient via the device is also disclosed.
Track system having a rolling member
A support member may be configured for selective connection with and removal from track assemblies. A support member may include a body and a rolling member rotatably connected to the body to facilitate movement of the support member along a track. The rolling member may include a grooved configuration to limit movement of the support member relative to said track in a Y-direction. The rolling member may include a groove configured to engage a protrusion or ridge of said track. The rolling member may include a first portion and a second portion separated in an axial direction by the groove.
Holding device for use in a motor vehicle, method for operating a holding device, control unit and motor vehicle
A holding device for a motor vehicle, includes at least one rod element, which has a first end with a cross-sectional surface, which forms a part of a holding surface of the holding device. A main extension axis of the at least one rod element intersects the part of the holding surface such that a second end, opposite the first end, of the at least one rod element is facing away from the part of the holding surface and protrudes into the holding device, and an adjustment device for adjusting the at least one rod element along the main extension direction.
Coupling systems
A coupling device comprising a base member connectable to a first item and a release member connectable to a second item, the base and release members being releasably connectable together. The base member has a front face including a pocket. The release member comprises a body which is configured to be received in the pocket in a coupled position. The pocket has an open access end through which the release member can be slidingly inserted and removed. The base member includes a stop member moveable, by an actuator, between a lock position in which the stop member interengages with the release member to prevent removal of the release member from the pocket of the base member, and a release position in which the release member can be separated from the base member. A securing apparatus for releasably securing a mobile equipment to a support surface, and including the coupling device.
Motorized mounting systems for televisions
A mounting system capable of mounting objects to support structures. The mounting system includes a wall mount including a display bracket configured to hold the object, a fixed support bracket coupleable to a vertical support structure, and a linkage assembly. The linkage assembly has a low-profile stowed configuration in which the object is held in a raised position close to the support structure. Tilt adjustment mechanisms are used to adjust the tilt of the display bracket.

Pump-activated feeding container
A pump-activated feeding container having a handheld container body with a removable top and a flexible straw assembly disposed within the body and exposed outside of the body. The container includes a priming bulb pump assembly directly coupled to at least one of the container body and container top in a watertight configuration and with a flexible and elastically deformable membrane defining a membrane cavity. The membrane is operably configured to have a membrane depression translation path 306 inducing a pressurized flow of liquid through a second enclosed straw channel of the straw assembly and an upper straw opening and to have a membrane release translation path 400 inducing a vacuum and flow of liquid through a first enclosed straw channel of the straw assembly and an upper straw opening.
Adjustable support apparatus and method of use
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for providing a support apparatus are provided. The support device may be a height-adjustable pipe support apparatus. A support apparatus may include a base having a threaded slug therein, a pad plate, a rod sleeve coupled to the pad plate, an adjustment rod coupled between the base and the rod sleeve, at least a portion of the adjustment rod being threadedly receivable by the rod sleeve and the threaded slug, the adjustment rod coupling the base and the pad plate, wherein a rotational movement of the adjustment rod is configured to adjust a distance between the base and the pad plate. A base plate may be coupled to the base and configured to couple to an external element.
