Blair ABSTRACT: A mount holding a vertical rod with a ball at its top positioned in a ball joint opening of a housing having an umbrella holder within a bore extending from the ball joint opening at the top of the housing. When the umbrella holder is slightly raised so that the ball is no longer being forced against the ball joint opening, the housing may be pivoted about the ball. A nut on the vertical rod supports the housing which has a conical bottom extending below the ball so that the housing is tilted by adjusting the height of the nut. In another embodiment a slot at the housing bottom allows the housing to be tilted past the vertical rod to a horizontal position. In another embodiment the ball is locked into position by means of a cam and plunger.
MOUNTING This invention relates to devices for mounting and adjusting by means 'of tilting and pivotal movements the angular posi tions of umbrellas, flag poles, fishing poles, antennas, and the like. I
The primary object of this invention is tojprovide facilitation of the desired positioning of a pole by means of an ad justable ball joint mounting for tilting and pivotal movements with a minimum number of moving parts and manual adjust ments.
The above and other objects of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art after. acorisideration of the following'detaileddescription of the preferred embodiments of this invention taken together with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. I is a side view of an umbrella attached to the adjustable ball housing and mounting plate; I
FIG. 2'is a sectional view taken on line .2-2 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a stationary mounting plate taken on line3-3of FIG.- 1;
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a cam locking device;
FIG. 5 is a cutaway view of a center postmounting sleeve; FIG. 6 is a side view ofa boat seat clamp mount;
FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken on line 7-7 ofFIG. 6;
FIG. 8 is across-sectional side view of theadjustable ball jointconnection and; housing tilted 90.for 360 pivoting ina horizontal plane; and
FIG. 9 is a'sectional'view taken on line 9-9of FIG. 8.
Referring in detail to the drawings, in FIGS; land 2 an umbrella post rests within a lockingsleeve 22iwhich at its lower end is threadedly engagedwithin a ballhousing'sleeve 24. A ball joint 26-is positioned at the'lower end of housing sleeve 24 which increases diameter at its bottom forming a' conical extension 28. A ball 30, which is positioned withinfball joint 26,.is secured to the top of a threaded'rod 32 whichis threadedlytengaged at its lower end within stationary mount ing plate 34securely mounted to ahorizontal surface 36 by 'means of bolts 38 within apertures 40, as is clearly shown in FIGS. 1-3. Threaded upon rod 32 is an angleadjusting nut 42, which serves as a platform for the outermost perimeter of conical extension 28 at the point where it rests on nut 42, and lock nut 44.
Umbrella post 20, which is in a vertical position whenthe outermost perimeter of conical extension 28 rests flat upon. angle adjusting nut 42, maybe set at a d'esiredangle-by raising locking sleeve 22 so thatit no longer forces ball against ball joint 26 thereby preventihgmovement' and by lowering nut 42 so thatumbrella post20 and. ball housing sleeve 24 tilt atan angle'as point 28a, along the outermost perimeter of conical extension 28, rests upon nut 42, while point 28b 180 away from point 28a is raisedinthe air. Umbrella post 20 maybe tilted until point 28c along the innermost perimeter of the inner surface of conicalextension 28 makesphysical contact with rod 32 which prevents further tilting. Umbrella post. 20 and ball housing sleeve 24while tilted may be pivoted 360 merely. by rotating them about ball 30*and an axis running through the center of rod32, the outermost perimeter of com cal extension 28 forming a circular path along angle adjusting nut 42 during rotation. After umbrella post'20 hasbeentilted and pivoted to thedesired angle, it may be locked into posi tion merely by lowering locking sleeve 22 forcing ball 30 against ball joint 26'; I
FIGS. 8 and 9 show another embodimentof thisinvention whereby umbrella post 20 may be tilted- 90 to a horizontal of the conical section removed by slot 50 at point 280 which when notremoved moves against rod32. preventing further tilting-as shown in FIG. 2.
Another embodiment of this invention isshown in FIG. 4
disclbsing a cam locking device. An umbrella post 22. is secured within an unthreaded ball housing sleeve 24' by 30 against the bottom of ball housing sleeve 24' thereby preventing'further movementof ball 30. Because of the pressure fit, cam33will notloosen or rotate out of the locking position duertovibration orthe weight of handle 37. Also, handle.37 cannot be accidentally pushed loose because itcan only be pulled from its locking position.
Another embodimentof this invention is shown in FIG. 5 disclosing a center post mount which can be used on earth moving equipment and the like. Rod 32is threadedly engaged with a mounting sleeve 50. and lock nut 44. Sleeve 60 is.
secured to a centerpost62 meansof rivet 64.
Another embodiment of-this invention is shown in FIGS. 6': and 7 disclosing a boat seat mounting clamp for small pleasure and fishing boats for allowing the umbrella to be quicklypivoted out of the way when playing and landing a fish. Rod 32 is threadedly engaged with lock nut and. a clamp 70 which is secured. to a horizontal surface, such. as boat seat 72 by. means of clamp screws 74.
While the preferred embodiments of this invention have been illustrated and described, itwill be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications and changes may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
