MOUNTING BRACKET FOR SECURING OBJECTS TO WALLS OR OTHER SURFACES
A wall-mounting bracket is described that includes a base comprising a base body and a cover detachably attachable to the base body. The base body includes a back plate configured to be positioned against a wall; a first bend and a second bend defining a first recess for receiving a first side of a decorative item to be secured to the wall, defining a first lip for retaining the first side of the decorative item; a third bend and a fourth bend defining a second recess for receiving a second side of the decorative item to be secured to the wall, defining a second lip for retaining the second side of the decorative item, where the second recess is perpendicular to the first recess; and an aperture in the back plate having a recessed lip through which a mounting device may be positioned.
Mounting system
A mounting system having a hub installation dispenser system. The hub installation dispenser system having a horizontal port, a horizontal level vial, a vertical port, and a vertical level vial. The horizontal port and the horizontal level vial together aid in determining a level orientation of the hub. The vertical port and the vertical level vial together aid in determining a plumb orientation of the hub. The hub installation dispenser system has an engagement channel configured to receive a tape measure. Hubs are configured to be mountable to a surface. A protrusion extends from the horizontal port and is configured to releasably secure a hub from the hub installation dispenser system.
Reflective video display apparatus for interactive training and demonstration and methods of using same
A smart mirror can show live or recorded streaming video of an instructor performing a workout in a package that is attractive and unobtrusive enough to hang in a living room. The smart mirror includes a mirror surface with a fully reflecting section and a partially reflecting section. A display behind the partially reflecting section shows the video when the smart mirror is on and is almost invisible when the smart mirror is off. The smart mirror also has a speaker, a microphone, and a camera to enable a user to view the video content and interact with the instructor. The smart mirror may connect to the user's smart phone, a peripheral device (e.g., a Bluetooth speaker) to augment user experience, a biometric sensor to provide biometric data to assess user performance, and/or a network router to connect the smart mirror to a content provider, an instructor, and/or other users.
Fastener system
A fastener system shifting shear stresses away from a collet body and provides clamping action to targeted structures. The fastener system includes feet in the collet body that mate with openings in a sleeve at least partially surrounding the collet body. The sleeve or the collet body includes interior threads that engage with a stud that is configured to extend through the collet body and bend the feet such that they project outward from the sleeve openings in an engaged configuration.
Adjustable framing system
A frame system includes a mount having an outer surface for receiving an adhesive for placement on a support surface and an inner surface that includes a plurality of first coupling elements. The frame system also includes a hollow outer frame element and a back plate configured for insertion into and attachment to the outer frame element. The back plate includes a plurality of second coupling elements that mate with the first coupling elements for attaching the back plate to the mount in such a way that the back plate can rotate relative to the mount to allow for adjustment of the combined outer frame element and the back plate.
ROTATING MIRROR ASSEMBLY INCLUDING A SEALED INNER CHAMBER
A rotating mirror assembly, comprising a mirror including a front surface and a rear surface, a front cover engaged with the front surface, a fluidly sealed cavity formed between the front cover and the mirror, a rim operatively arranged to clamp the mirror and the front cover together, and a wall bracket comprising an aperture, the mirror arranged to rotatably engage the aperture. The cavity is filled with a liquid and snow-flake-like particles.
Magnetic Wall-Mounted Assembly with Interchangeable Components
A magnetic wall-mounted assembly includes: an anchor configured to be secured to a wall; a spacer configured to be magnetically coupled to the anchor; a base configured to be magnetically coupled to the spacer; and one or more decorative items configured to be magnetically coupled to the base. Alternatively, a magnetic wall-mounted assembly includes: an integral anchor-spacer component secured to a wall and extending away from the wall; a base configured to be magnetically coupled to the integral anchor-spacer component; and one or more decorative items configured to be magnetically coupled to the base. One or more decorative items preferably is configured to receive and retain an air plant. The base may have a triangular, circular, or rectangular profile. Preferably, a plurality of bases of different profiles and sizes are provided, each of which is configured to be magnetically coupled to the same spacer or integral anchor-spacer component.
Mounting a frame onto a previously installed mirror
Fasteners and methods for mounting a frame onto a previously installed mirror without requiring removal of the previously installed mirror are provided. Each fastener includes a support panel. A first bracket portion extends from a first face of the support panel and is configured to receive a portion of an outer edge of the previously installed mirror. A second bracket portion extends from a second face of the support panel and is configured to receive the frame.
