Abstract
A fitting 100 includes a tubular base 20 and an elongated holding member 40. The base 20 includes a connecting rail 25 having an outer surface formed with an indentation 253, and an axially extending central hole 24. A first bolt member 30 extends through the central hole 24 to threadedly engage the upright wall so as to fix the base 20 on the wall. The holding member 40 has a rear end surface 42 formed with a blind rail hole 41, and a threaded hole 45 that is formed transversely through a wall of the holding member 40 and that is in communication with the rail hole 41. A second bolt member 50 engages threadedly the threaded hole 45 in the holding member 40, and has an inner end 51 that presses against the connecting rail 25 and that is disposed within the indentation 253 of the connecting rail 25 to thereby secure the holding member 40 on the connecting rail 25.

( FITTING ADAPTED FOR HOLDING A SUPPORT MEMBER
ON AN UPRIGHT WALL
Theinventionrelatestoafitting,moreparticularly to a fitting adapted for holding a support member, such 5 as a transverse rod or a holding ring, on an upright wall. A conventional fitting includes apositioning plate mounted fixedly on an upright wall by a pair of first end second fasteningmembers (e.g., bolts), a faceplate 10 fastened to the positioning plate by a third fastening member, and a holding member fastened to the faceplate by a fourth fastening member.
One of the drawbacks of the conventional fitting resides in that it requires too many fastening members.
1S Furthermore, at least two fastening members are needed to fix the positioning plate on the upright wall.
Therefore, the main object of the present invention is to provide a fitting that is capable of overcoming the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art.
20 According to this invention, a fitting includes a tubular base, a first bolt member, an elongated holding member, and a second bolt member. The tubular base includes a positioning plate, a connecting rail, and anaxlallyextendingcentralhole.Thepositionlngplate 25 has a rear end surface adapted Lo abut against the upright wall, and a front end surface. The connecting rail protrudesintegrally end frontwardly from the front end
surface of the positioning plate, and has an annular outer surface that is formed with an indentation. The axially extending central hole is formed through the positioning plate and the connecting rail. The first 5 bolt member extends through the central hole to threadedly engage the upright wall so as to fix the base on the upright wall. The elongated holding member has a rear end surface formed with a blind rail hole for receiving the connecting rail therein, a holding hole 10 that extends transversely through the holding member, and a threaded hole that is proximate to the rear end surface and that extends transversely through a wall of the holding member. The threaded hole is in communicationwiththerail hole.Thesecondboltmember IS engages threadedly the threaded hole in the holding member, and has an inner end that presses against the connecting rail and that is disposed within the indentation of the connecting rail to thereby secure the holding member on the connecting rail.
20 Other features and advantages of the present inventionwillbecomeapparentinthefollowingUetailed description of the preferred embodiment with reference
to the accompanying drawings, of which: Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view of the 25 preferred embodiment of a fitting according to the present invention; Figure 2 is an assembled perspective view of the
preferred embodiment; and Figure 3 is a partly sectional view showing the preferred embodiment when mounted on a wall.
ReferringtoFigureslto3,thepreferredembodiment 5 of a fitting 100 according to the present invention is shown to include a tubular base 20, a first bolt member 30, en elongated holdingmember40, a second bolt member 50, and an antislip washer 60.
The tubular base20 includes a positioning plate21, 10 a connecting rail 25, and an axially extending central hole24.The positioning plate21 has a front end surface 212 and a rear end surface 211 adapted to abut against the upright wall, and is formed with a decorative plate 22 that protrudes integrally and frontwardly from the 15 front end surface 212 of the positioning plate 21. The decorative plate 22 has a front end surface 221, from which the connecting rail 25 protrudes integrally and frontwardly. The connecting rail25 has anannular outer surface that is formed with an indentation 253, and a 20 rear end 252. The connecting rail 25 is formed with an inclinedsurface253'inthelndentation253.Theaxially extending central hole 24 is formed through the positioning plate 21 and the connecting rail 25.
The firstbolt member30 extends through the central 25 hole 24 to threadedly engage the upright wall so as to fix the base 20 on the upright wall.
Theelongatedholdingmember40hasarearendeurface
( 42 formed with a blind rail hole 41 for receiving the connecting rail 25 therein, a front end surface 43 opposite to the rear end surface 42, a holding hole 44 that is proximate to the front end surface 43 and that 5 extends transversely through the holding member40, and a threaded hole 45 that is proximate to the rear end surface 42, that extends transversely through a wall of the holding member 40, and that is in communication with the rail hole 41. The rear end surface 42 of the 10 holding member 40 abuts against the front end surface 221 of the decorative plate 22. The holding hole 44 is used to retain a support member (not shown), such as a transverse rod or a holding ring, on the fitting 100.
The second bolt member 50 engages threadedly the 15 threaded hole 45 in the holding member 40, and includes aninnerend51 that presses againsUtheconnecting rail 25 and that is disposed within the indentation 253 in the connecting rail 25, and an outer end 53 formed with a hexagonal cross-sectioned hole 52.
20 Theanti-slipwasher60isclampedbetweentheupright wall and the rear end surface 211 of the positioning plate 21.
Referring to Figure 3, the base 20 is threadedly connected to the wall by passing the first bolt member 25 30 through the central hole 24 and the anti--slip washer 60,therebysecuringthebase20Onthewall.Theholding member 40 is then brought to be sleeved on the base 20
( by inserting the connecting rail 25 of the base 20 into the rail hole 41 in the holding member 40 until the rear end surface 42 of the holding member 40 abuts against the front end surface 221 of the decorative plate 22.
5 Thereafter, the second bolt member 50 is threadedly engaged into the threaded hole 45 in the holding member 40 by using a hexagonal wrench (not shown) until the inner end Slof the second bolt member50 presses against the inclined surface 253' of the connecting rail 25, 10 therebysecuringthcholdingmember40On the connecting rail 25 of the base 20.
The advantages of the fitting 100 of the present invention can be summarized as follows: The holding member 40 can be directly fastened to lS the base 20 using only one bolt member 50. Another bolt member30 is used to fix the base20 on the upright wall.
As such, only two fastening members 30, 50 are required to fix the fitting 100 of the present invention on the upright wall, thereby making the fitting 100 easy to 20 install and convenient to use. Furthermore, different moulds of the base 20 and the holding member 40 can be used to entrance the outer appearance of the fitting lOO.
