SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PYLON ANCHORING
Disclosed is a pylon anchoring system in the form of an extruded strip that may be wrapped around, and affixed to, a pylon or post such that the pylon anchoring system is positioned beneath a sand line when the pylon or post is installed and set. Advantageously, when the post or pylon is installed such that the pylon anchoring strip is positioned beneath sand (or some other ground surface), a plurality of anchor elements on the system generate a counteracting force to any external force that might cause the pylon to shift from a set position.
Systems and methods for a modular signage system
Various embodiments of a modular signage system having a modular post that enables placement and display of a plurality of signs. The modular post includes a tab chamber that engages one or more signs and is configured to engage a stake for embedding within a ground surface.
Anchor device for a wooden post
An anchoring device for supporting a post from a support surface. The anchoring device comprises a base, at least one stanchion extending from the base, and a plate attached to the stanchion opposite the base. A plurality of side supports is included with each side support attached to and extending from the base. The side supports are also attached to the plate and extend past the plate. First and second guides are included with each guide attached to the plate and each side support. Each guide extends away from the base.
UMBRELLA STAND ADAPTABLE FOR SUPPORT ON A TABLE
An umbrella stand includes a base plate positionable on a table. A tube is connected to the base plate and includes an opening formed therein sized to receive a portion of the umbrella pole. A shaft is connectable to the base plate in opposed relation to the tube. A bottom cap is threadedly engageable with the elongate shaft. First and second strap assemblies are coupled to the base plate, with each including a strap and a clamp coupled. The umbrella stand is useable in a first mode wherein the shaft is connected to the base plate, and the bottom cap is connected to the elongate shaft, and the clamps are disengaged from the peripheral edge of the table. The umbrella stand is useable in a second mode, wherein the shaft is disconnected from the base plate, and the clamps are engaged to the peripheral edge of the table.
Hollow post anchoring systems for decking and related methods
Apparatus, systems, and methods for securing anchoring posts to a decking surface without the use of a metal plate or washer to redirect force from a single central fastener on an internally mounted anchor, or the use of an externally visible connector. An anchor member having a generally planar upper surface and vertical sidewalls has connection ridges extending out from those sidewalls that correspond to channels formed in the internal sidewalls of a hollow post member. Using a press, the anchor member is pressed into a secured position in the post. A plurality of attachment holes are disposed in a pattern around the anchor member, passing through the body thereof. For installation, a post with the fitted anchor is placed on a decking surface and a plurality of screws are attached to the decking surface to secure the anchor member and post thereto.
FREE-STANDING LOAD SUPPORT SYSTEM
A load support system includes an elongate support member having a first diameter and a first end and a second end. The elongate support member includes, toward the first end, a first portion for direct earth burial and further includes, toward the second end, a second portion to which the load can be coupled. The first portion has a first length. The system additionally includes a lateral support having a second diameter greater than the first diameter and a second length less than the first length. The lateral support is mounted about the first portion of the elongate support member. The lateral support includes a first opening formed therein at a first location relative to a long axis of the elongate support member and a second opening formed therein at a different second location relative to the long axis in order to support a range of embedment depths.
Fence post support and method and blank for making same
A structure for receiving and stabilizing a fence post or other similar support, as well as methods of making and using and a material blank for forming the same, are all described. The support has a flat planar member, into which a series of cooperating notches/slits, recesses, and perforations or frangible connections are provided. When assembled, the support is defined by a pair of axially aligned planar members, cooperatively fitted to form supported receiving recesses at a predetermined axial offset from the non-receiving edge of the support. A method of securing such supports for subsequent encasement in concrete is also contemplated.
SEPARABLE MAGNETIC ATTACHMENT ASSEMBLY
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, an attachment assembly for coupling to a base plate includes a substantially planar attachment plate having a top side and a bottom side, a magnet assembly including at least three magnets, each of the at least three magnets having a first side and a second side opposite the first side, the first sides of the at least three magnets are configured for coupling with the bottom side of the attachment plate, wherein the at least three magnets each have a first end and a second end, such that the first end of each magnet is adjacent a second end of an adjacent magnet to form an array, and a shim plate removably coupled to the second side of the at least three magnets.
Separable magnetic attachment assembly
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, an attachment assembly for coupling to a base plate includes a substantially planar attachment plate having a top side and a bottom side, a magnet assembly including at least three magnets, each of the at least three magnets having a first side and a second side opposite the first side, the first sides of the at least three magnets are configured for coupling with the bottom side of the attachment plate, wherein the at least three magnets each have a first end and a second end, such that the first end of each magnet is adjacent a second end of an adjacent magnet to form an array, and a shim plate removably coupled to the second side of the at least three magnets.
Cap Assembly For a T-Post Right of Way Line Marker
A cap assembly is shown for a right of way line marker which includes a cap body with a conical exterior and an end opening. A mounting assembly including a lower, stationary disk and an upper, sliding disk are received within the end opening of the cap body. The lower disk has a T-shaped aperture therein for receiving an upper exposed end of a T-shaped vertical support member. The upper sliding disk is positionable within the cap open interior upon contact with the upper end of the support member to thereby securely mount the cap assembly about the right of way line marker.
