Definitions
- the present invention relates to a bracket assembly.
- the invention relates to a bracket assembly arranged for providing a moveable attachment point on a surface such as that of a garment.
- a bracket assembly for providing an attachment point on a surface for supporting an article, the bracket assembly including:
- a body member arranged so as to be held against region of the surface by way of magnetic association therewith, the body member having a support region for providing support to the article, the body member arranged so that, when in use, the support region is spaced from the surface.
- a bracket assembly for providing an attachment point on a surface for carrying an article, the bracket assembly including:
- a body member arranged so as to be held against a region of the surface by way of magnetic association therewith, the body member having a carrier region for providing carriage for the article, the body member arranged so that, when in use, the carrier region is spaced from the surface.
- the surface to which the body member of the bracket assembly is applied may be a metallic surface.
- the body member of the bracket assembly may be placed against any metallic surface such as for example the inside of a working machine cab or side wall of metal sheds, offices, or site sheds.
- the surface is preferably of a type that is magnetically responsive to the body member. The magnetic association between the surface and the body member therefore does not need to be premised on the basis of dual polarity, ie, in one embodiment, the metallic surface does not need to be formed of a material opposite in magnetic polarity to the body member.
- the body member may be further arranged so as to provide rigid carriage for or support to the article.
- the body member may comprise a magnetic material.
- the body member may comprise one or more magnetic elements arranged so as to, when in use, be in magnetic association with the surface.
- the body member is arranged to be held against a layer of a material of a garment.
- the bracket assembly may further comprise a base member arranged to be associated with the garment such that, when in use, the or each magnetic element is arranged in magnetic association with the base member thereby allowing the bracket to be held against the surface of the layer of material of the garment.
- the base member may be formed from a magnetic material or a non-ferrous material.
- the base member When applying the bracket assembly to the garment, the base member is arranged on a first side of the layer of material (internal facing side of material) , and the body member is arranged to be placed against a second side of the material (external facing side of material) at a position where the body member substantially overlies the region of material where the base member has been placed. Therefore, when the base member and the body member are placed on opposites sides of the layer of material of the garment, the magnetic attraction between the or each magnet and the base member is sufficient to hold the body member against the external facing side of the material. Further, the magnetic association between the magnetic element (s) and base member may be such that the bracket assembly can be used with garments having one or more layers of material, or layers of varying thicknesses.
- bracket assembly when used with apparel, can be advantageous in that: ⁇ the bracket assembly may be readily transferable between different apparel (ie, different garments);
- bracket assembly may provide a more stable attachment platform than epaulettes or shirt pockets;
