Definitions

• the invention relates to a hookmount for prompt and easy suspension of heterogeneous objects, independent of shape and size of the objects.
• the hookmount comprises a mounting plate with two bends, one of which forms a hook, while the other forms an angle with the mounting plate.
• the hookmount can be made of steel, metal or synthetic material and in various sizes, depending on the field of application.
• the cord can be made of plaited natural or synthetic products, plastic elastic material, stainless steel wire or leather, and in disparate colours.
• the angle of the hookmount, from the hook and downwards, may be between 0 and 90 degrees. At zero degrees the outer sides of the hookmount are parallel. Hookmounts with an angle other than zero degrees have a curved cut-out between the two pairs of adjusting holes.
• a known hookmount of this kind is described in the US patent no. 2 396 350, see fig. 1 and fig. 4, in which a cord, fixed in a mount, between two hooks, is used for suspending clothes, etc.
• a cord fixed in a mount, between two hooks, is used for suspending clothes, etc.
• the fixing of the mount on the cord seems to serve only as a hook for holding the cord.
• the mount also hampers the flexibility of the cord and makes it harder to bring the cord through objects.
• the invention produces a universal mount, in which objects of disparate kinds, shapes and sizes, promptly and easily, can be suspended and fixed by a cord. Objects are suspended by bringing the cord through or around the object, and thereafter hanging the cord on the hook. This can be done using only one hand.
• the invention is characterized by: in a universal mount, combining the hook with the flexible cord, which can be brought around or through objects, and with the aid of the adjusting holes, can promptly and easily be mounted, steplessly length adjusted, fixed or changed, at the same time as the hookmount is fixed to a plane surface. This is guaranteed by the size of the adjusting holes, in proportion to the thickness of the cord, and the reciprocal location of the adjusting holes.
• the cord When objects are suspended, the cord is brought through or around the object and hung on the hook.
• the suspension of the object can be performed promptly and easily using only one hand, which makes the hookmount particularly usefull for disabled persons.
• the hookmount is fixed vertically, with the hook directed upwards, for example on a wall, or horizontally, for example in the ceiling.
• the object is suspended in the cord, and the force of gravity holds the object in place and the cord in the hook.
• the cord By releasing the cord from the four adjusting holes it is possible to steplessly length adjust the cord. Thereafter, pulling the cord locks it in the adjusting holes.
• the cord can be further secured by making knots in the cord-ends. The construction ensures that; at the same time as the mount is fixed , the cord can, promptly and easily, be adjusted or changed, in the event of wear and tear, when a cord of another length, colour,or material is wanted.
• the mount is a universal mount and can be used to suspend disparate objects. Only the length of the cord limits the size of the object that can be suspended. It is also possible to collect several objects and suspend them in the same cord.
• the curved cut-out between the two pairs of adjusting holes makes it possible to suspend objects with both vertical and horizontal extension, for example a hammer or garden tools.
• Mounts with an angle of 0 degrees are particularly useful on narrow surfaces, for example shipmasting, furniture and wheelchairs.
• the hookmount can be made with oblong fixing holes. The hookmount is then fixed with straps or cords.
• the hookmount When large objects are suspended, the hookmount is made of two parts, one with the hook and another with the adjusting holes. Further, the curved cut-out, with the two pairs of adjusting holes, can be separated, in which case the hookmount is made up of three parts. These three parts can thereafter be fixed at an appropriate distance from each other for holding a large object over a wide area, for example a ski-box.
• Figure 1 shows a hookmount with an angle (8).
• Figure la shows figure 1 turned 90 degrees.
• Figure 2 shows a hookmount with a 0 degree angle (the sides are parallel).
• Figure 2a shows figure 2 turned 90 degrees.
• Figure 3 shows a hookmount with a cord.
• Figure 1 shows an example of a hookmount with an angle (8), which gives a triangular hookmount.
• the bend (2) forms the hook.
• the holes (6) are for fixing the hookmount with screws.
• the cord (10,fig.3) is fixed in the adjusting holes (3,4).
• the curved cut-outs (5) make it possible to suspend specially shaped objects.
• Figure la shows figure 1 in a 90 degrees cross-section with the hook (2) and the cord (10) fixed in the adjusting holes (3,4).
• the angle (9) shows the bend of the adjusting holes (3,4).
• Figure 2 shows a hookmount (1) with a zero degree angle. The sides are parallel and there is no curved cut-out as in figure 1.
• the reference numbers follow the description for figure 1.
• Figure 2a shows figure 2 turned 90 degrees.
• the reference numbers follow the description for figure la, except for the cord (10, fig.3).
• Figure 3 shows the principle of fixing the cord (lO).
• the cord-ends are mounted from below and up through holes (3), thereafter from above and down through holes (4). This is done for both sides of the hookmount.
• the cord is hung around the hook (2) when objects are suspended.
