Disclosed herein is a bracket mounting system for magnetically securing hardware to a surface of a structure. An apparatus utilizes a longitudinally extending panel member with an upper surface and a lower surface, oppositely disposed panel ends, first and second rail members and a longitudinally extending channel disposed between the rail members. The longitudinally extending channel having a first end and a second end as well as at least one magnetic pad mounted to each of the oppositely disposed panel ends. The bracket includes a clamp set with clamp members, each clamp member having an upper and a lower end, the upper end of each clamp secured to the upper end of an adjacent clamp member. The lower ends of the first and second clamp members are inserted into the channel and retained in position by the first and second rail members, wherein the clamp set secures to the panel member hardware extending through the clamp set.

A valve support apparatus is disclosed as capable of shifting a valve in a piping system in accordance with the thermal expansion of connected piping. The apparatus includes a valve mount, a slide mount, and a base, wherein the valve mount contains a valve attachment assembly to attach a valve. The valve mount can couple with the slide mount, using a mounting assembly, such that the valve mount is vertically and laterally secured about the slide mount, but the valve mount can move along the longitudinal axis of the slide mount. The slide mount, using another mounting assembly, can couple with the base, such that the slide mount is vertically and laterally secured about the base, but the slide mount can move along the longitudinal axis of the base, which is oriented orthogonally to the longitudinal axis of the slide mount. With this configuration, the stress and other loads exerted on the valve due to thermal expansion can be minimized by allowing the valve to be moved to account for the elongated piping.

A pipe support is coupled to an elongated channel for receiving and supporting a pipe. The channel includes a base and a pair of spaced apart sidewalls extending from the base to a top plate. A flange projects downwardly from each top plate towards the base and defines a slot therebetween. The pipe support includes a body portion extending axially between opposite ends and having an inner surface and an outer surface. The body portion includes a generally arcuate bottom floor and a pair of spaced apart sidewalls projecting generally upwardly from the bottom floor. A plurality of axially spaced apart channel clips project downwardly from the outer surface of the body portion opposite the side walls. The channel clips have a leg portion and an outwardly projecting barb portion wherein the channel clips extend through the slot in the channel and the barb portions engage the respective spaced apart flanges to operatively couple the pipe support to the channel.

A pipe support assembly includes a pipe support shell body having a substantially semicylindrical wall portion conforming to an outer contour of a pipe to be supported. The shell body has a length which is greater than a width thereof and has an open top flanked by longitudinal rims and a flange formed at each of said rims. The pipe support assembly furthermore includes at least one hanger assembly adapted to be suspended from an overhead support structure and including an engagement portion for engaging at least one of the flanges of the pipe support shell body. The flanges extend outwardly from the respective longitudinal rims and are each provided with a series of perforations distributed over the length thereof. The engagement portion of the hanger assembly is adapted to be inserted at least partially through at least one of the perforations in one of the flanges.

An adjustable locking assembly, including a strap lock including a clamping element, a locking strap including a first end connected to the strap lock and a second end connected to a locking pin, and a pin locking element including a pivoting latch, the pivoting latch including a channel arranged to receive the locking pin, wherein in a locked position, the locking pin is secured in the channel and the pivoting latch is pivoted away from the strap lock, and in an unlocked position, the locking strap is freely movable.

A multi-function support assembly supports, grounds, and shields numerous different types of aircraft systems and simultaneously stabilizes aircraft structures to which the support assembly is mounted. The support assembly includes a support tray and a number of support brackets attached to and spaced along the length of the support tray. The support tray attaches to aircraft floor beams or other aircraft structures to stabilize the structures while providing a mounting location for the support brackets. The support tray also provides electromagnetic and structural shielding for aircraft systems and a ground path for electrical and electronic components in the aircraft. The support brackets are formed of electrically insulative materials and attach to the support tray to support various aircraft systems below the support tray and to electrically isolate the support tray from the aircraft structures and the aircraft systems from the support tray.

An apparatus is disclosed as comprising a first leg of a strut clip; a first rotatable element rotatably attached to the first leg of the strut clip at a first aperture; a second rotatable element rotatably attached to the first leg of the strut clip at the first aperture, where the first and second rotatable elements may have tapered lower edges; a first notch of the first rotatable element may be disposed on a longitudinal edge of the first rotatable element; a second notch of the second rotatable element may be disposed on a longitudinal edge of the second rotatable element; one or more stops may be disposed in the first leg of the strut clip, where the one or more stops may limit rotation of at least one of: the first rotatable element and the second rotatable element; and a first elastic element may be disposed between distal longitudinal edges of the first rotatable element and the second rotatable element.

T-slot interconnects that include a body portion and two orthogonally elongated interlock tabs positioned on opposed sides of the body portion are used for building T-bar structures, including grow-light canopies. In operation, the elongated interlock tabs are placed into T-channels of the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars. The T-slot interconnects are then rotated to secure the elongated interlock tabs within the T-channels of the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars and, thereby, secure the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars together through the T-slot interconnects.

Channel framing includes an elongate body having a longitudinal axis and defining an interior extending along the longitudinal axis. The body includes a first side defining a continuous slot extending lengthwise of the body and into the interior of the body. A second side is generally opposite the first side and defines a fitting groove extending lengthwise of the body. The fitting groove is configured for receiving at least one type of fitting to secure the fitting to the channel framing.

A U-shaped band to attach or snap a conduit or pipe to a slotted structural member. The U-shaped band includes a bottom portion, a first side having a first arm connected to the bottom portion; a second side having a second arm connected to the bottom portion thereby forming a U-shaped structure with the first and second sides. The at least one arm snaps into a slot of the slotted structural member when in an engaged position. The slotted structural member may be a strut or a receiver. The receiver has arms to engage and snap into curled ends or lips on sides of the strut and thus may adapt the band to the strut. Alternatively, the band may snap into suitably sized slots on the slotted structural member.
