An object holding device comprises at least two gripping lips, at least one supporting wall for each of at least two gripping lips, one base, wherein at least two gripping lips are respectively opposed to one another, wherein the at least two gripping lips form at least one slit between one another, wherein each the at least one supporting wall is attached with one of the at least two gripping lips and extends to the base, at least one crease is formed in the approximately middle of each supporting wall, wherein the crease forms an angle of about 30 degrees to about 90 degrees relatively to the base, wherein the at least two gripping lips, the at least one supporting wall for each of the at least two gripping lips, and the base together define a space to receive the at least one object.

A flat panel mounting system includes a TV bracket and a wall bracket. The TV bracket is adapted to be mounted to a flat display. The TV bracket includes a flange extending from an elongate panel thereof and a lip extending from the flange. The wall bracket is adapted to be mounted to a wall and includes a flange extending from an elongate panel thereof. The flange and elongate panel of the wall bracket define a laterally extending channel. The wall bracket also includes a flapper moveable within the channel between forward and rearward positions. When the TV bracket is placed on the wall bracket in an assembled position, the flange and lip of the TV bracket is received within the channel and is prohibited from being removed from the channel by the flapper via coaction between the lip and the flapper while the flapper is in the forward position.

To make it possible to simply and easily attach/detach an attaching target to/from an attached target. A coupler includes: a base to be fixed to an attached target; and an attachment body that is fixed to the attaching target and to be detachably joined to the base, in which: the base includes a joint surface to be joined to the attachment body, a magnet configured to magnetically attach the attachment body to the joint surface, and an engaging part configured to engage with the attachment body; and the attachment body includes a joint surface to be joined to the base, a magnet configured to magnetically attach the magnet of the base to the joint surface, and an engaged part configured to disengageably engage with the engaging part of the base and restrict separation from the base.

A modular device mounting platform apparatus having interchangeable jaw members for accommodating different devices. The device mounting platform apparatus includes a frame member capable of being mounted, by example and without limitation, in a vehicle and having a device mounting surface facing generally upward. A telescoping clamp member is slidably interconnected to frame member along a first direction. A biasing mechanism is coupled between frame and clamp members for urging a jaw member of the clamp member along first direction away from the frame member. A plurality of different jaw members are interchangeably coupleable to the frame and clamp members in an opposing relationship across the device mounting surface of the frame.

A device for fixing an optical device is disclosed. The device has a housing, an actuating device having an adjustable actuating element, an expansion sleeve having a plurality of expansion segments, which can be displaced in a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the expansion sleeve between a closed state and an expanded state, and a first adjusting device, which converts a movement of the actuating device into a radial movement of the expansion segments in the plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the expansion sleeve. The expansion segments can be inserted into the receiving opening of the optical device in the closed state of the expansion sleeve and, in the expanded state, form a force-fitting or form-fitting connection with the receiving opening of the optical device.

The invention includes a payload stage with tilt head, a monitor mount and a payload plate clamping mechanism, individually, and incorporated into a camera stabilizer. The tilt head provides a curved and a straight slot each having a pivot pin disposed therein. The pivot pins are at a fixed distance from one another and thus the stage tilts as the pivot progresses with respect to the straight slot. The monitor mount provides inserts to accommodate central posts of different sizes, each designed to be axially registered to the posts and the monitor mount.

An electronic device includes a display, a locking member, a resilient member, and a supporting foot. The locking member is movably mounted to the display and including a protrusion. The resilient member is coupled between the locking member and the display. The supporting foot includes a supporting bracket and a rotating assembly coupled to the supporting bracket. The rotating assembly includes a pivot capable of moving the locking member. The pivot includes a latching slot. When the pivot is inserted into the display, the pivot moves the locking member and deforms the resilient member. When the protrusion aligns with the latching slot of the pivot, the resilient member moves the locking member, to allow the protrusion to engage in the latching slot.

Methods and apparatus for securely mounting an enclosure are described. In various embodiments a device enclosure includes a recessed back area in which a mounting latch including a generally key-shaped opening is positioned. A mounting bracket including a post having multiple dimensions is secured to a wall. The enclosure and latch is placed over the post. The enclosure is moved so that the post slides in the key-shaped opening and snaps into the first portion of the key-shaped opening. To release the latch a release tool is inserted into a slot or other opening and rotated so that the tip or tips of the release tool can pass through one or more openings in a rear wall of the enclosure and compress a portion of the latch allowing the enclosure and latch to slide on the shaft until the enclosure reaches a position where it can be removed.
