Other embodiments are described and shown.

This disclosure discloses various brackets with various mounting interfaces for engaging (e.g., mechanically) with various surfaces that are correspondingly configured. For example, one of such brackets can clamp onto a bar (e.g., a handlebar of a vehicle) and then an electronic device (e.g., a smartphone, a tablet, a dedicated navigational unit) can removably secure (e.g., mate) to that bracket. This form of removable securing can be via that bracket having a latch configured to engage a detent of the electronic device (or vice versa) in order to linearly mount the electronic device onto the bracket (or vice versa) and disengage the detent in order rotationally unmount the electronic device from the bracket (or vice versa).

Method and system allowing more accurate detection and identification of unwanted arcing include novel processing of signal voltage representing recovered power-line current. In one implementation, arc-faults are detected based on numerical analysis where individual cycles of line voltage and current are observed and data collected during each cycle is processed to estimate likelihood of presence of arc-event within each individual cycle based on pre-defined number of arc-events occurring within pre-defined number of contiguous cycles. In another implementation, fast transient current spikes detection can be done by: computing difference values between consecutive line-current samples collected over a cycle, average of differences, and peak-to-peak value of line-current; comparing each difference value to average of difference; comparing each difference value to peak-to-peak value; and, based on calculation of composite of two comparisons, using thresholds to determine if arcing is present within processed cycle.

The present disclosure describes an antenna mount kit. The antenna mount kit includes pivotally coupled mounting brackets, at least one adjustment bracket, and at least one locking plate. One of the mounting brackets and the at least one adjustment bracket each include a plurality of phase adjustment holes configured to lock an antenna at a desired tilt angle that is adjustable at 1 degree steps for different length antennas. Antenna mount kit assemblies and methods of adjusting the downtilt of an antenna are also provided.

A multi-functional and extendable mounting stand has a clamp and an extending assembly including at least one coupling joint and at least one extending rod arranged alternately and connected sequentially. Each coupling joint has a first connecting seat, a mounting seat mounted on the first connecting seat, a second connecting seat mounted through the first connecting seat and the mounting seat, and a knob connected to the second connecting seat. At least one ends of the extending rod is connected to at least one ends of the at least one coupling joint. The clamp is connected to one end of the extending assembly. A holder, a lighting apparatus or a recording apparatus is connected to the extending assembly and can be adjusted to a height and an angular position that allow a user to use the holder in a comfortable pose or to the best recoding or lighting position.

An apparatus comprising an arm with a depending hollow attachment housing, into which is inserted a corresponding attachment portion of a depending device. The housing and attachment portion both have corresponding openings which come into alignment when the attachment portion is inserted into the housing. The apparatus comprises a securing segment which passes through the aligned openings in the housing and attachment portion to prevent the vertical separation of the housing and attachment portion, and a sleeve which surrounds the housing and is vertically moveable between a first position wherein it exposes the openings and securing segment and a second position wherein it covers the securing segment thereby preventing the securing segment from becoming dislodged. The housing comprises a removable delimiter which reduces the allowable vertical movement of the sleeve so that its vertical movement is restricted so as to prevent the sleeve adopting its first position.

A support frame for clamping a rod includes two gripping assemblies. The gripping assembly includes a seat, two gripping blocks, two connecting members, a first adjusting screw and a second adjusting screw. The seat has a first through hole. The gripping block is slidably connected to the seat and has a hole body, a gripping notch and a long trough corresponding to the first through hole. The connecting member is disposed on the gripping block and has a first threaded hole corresponding to the first through hole. The first adjusting screw passes through the first through hole and the long trough to screw to the first threaded hole. A gripping recess is formed between the gripping notches of the gripping blocks. The two gripping assemblies jointly grip the rod by the gripping recesses. The second adjusting screw passes through and screws to the hole bodes of the gripping assemblies.

A support arm system (10) has at least one lockable articulated connection (16). A locking device (20) is associated with the articulated connection (16). The locking device (20) includes a passive drive (32) as well as an actuating device (36) associated with the locking device (20) with an active drive (38). The active drive (38) acts in the same plane as the passive drive (32).

A system for mounting a medical imaging device on a tablet arm is provided. In one embodiment the tablet arm includes an upper portion configured to rotate a mounted electronic device relative to a central axis of the upper portion and a lower portion coupled to the upper portion and extending downwards, away from the upper portion along a vertical axis perpendicular to the central axis, the upper portion and lower portion forming a hollow structure configured to house cables of an electronic device.

Various embodiments concern locking release mechanisms that allow an articulated support arm to be moved between various vertical orientations. A locking release mechanism may include a handle release mechanism positioned within the handle of the articulated support arm, and a gas spring release mechanism positioned within the body of the articulated support arm. The articulated support arm can include a gas spring that remains locked until the handle release mechanism is activated, e.g. by applying pressure to a grip actuator. Other embodiments concern cable management techniques for articulated support arms. Oftentimes, an articulated support arm will include cables routed through the arm that are configured to support an attachment. For example, the cable(s) may be adapted for audio signals, video signals, power, etc. The cable(s) can be readily cleaned and/or serviced when routed through an articulated support arm composed of one or more removable pieces.
