Method and System for Securing an Object on a Surface

Abstract

A method and system of securing an object on a wall is disclosed. The method and system allows for easily hanging a plurality of different sized items, at a specific height. The method and system utilizes a wall mounted hanger that comprises a base with a pin extending outwardly and downwardly from the back, and a shelf or other object secured to the front. Further, the orthogonal distance from the base to the shelf determines the positions of the pin, and a user inserts the pins in the base based on this measured distance. Then, the user fully inserts the pins into the wall such that the base is flush against the wall. As downward force and force against the wall is increased, the base is forced more tightly against the wall, thereby negating any potential failure of the base attachment to the wall and also negating any wall damage.

Description

BACKGROUND

Hanging various items on walls has been a constant problem for most people. This is especially true when attempting to successfully hang items from drywall, as drywall affords little support and is easily damaged by typical hangers and from hung items. Previously, various wall anchors, nails, etc. have been provided to attempt to alleviate hanging problems associated with drywall. However, a user may have to find the studs in the wall in order to utilize these wall anchors, either to use the studs or to stay away from the studs and wires in the wall. Additionally, the user must determine whether the wall anchor will be sufficient and hold an adequate amount of weight to support the shelf, picture frame towel holder or whatever the user is trying to hang.

For example, expandable inserts have been used wherein a fastener inserted into the insert expands the insert to tighten its grip within the drywall. However, such inserts are prone to failure when any significant weight is hung therefrom. Towel racks offer a prime example of expandable insert failures. Other devices, sometimes known as butterflies, have been used in the prior art. These butterfly devices provide for a barrier that is spread behind a hole that is made in the drywall. Further, the devices require a relatively large hole formation within the drywall prior to installation. Additionally, these devices and others bear downward and outward load on the drywall, a design quite prone to failure. An effective solution is necessary.

There is a need for an improved method and system of securing an object on a vertical or relatively vertical surface, such as a wall. The present method and system of securing allows for easily hanging given items in a plurality of sizes and weights, at a specific height relative to the ground. A user does not need to find the studs in the wall or worry about hitting a wire, or use additional tools, because the disclosed method and system is using the drywall without going all the way through it. A user fully inserts the pins of the base into the wall, via applying pressure at the same angle as the pins until the base is flush against the wall. Thus, the base is pushed or tapped into the drywall until it is flush against the wall. As downward force and force against the wall is increased, the base is forced more tightly against the wall, thereby negating any potential failure of the base attachment to the wall and also negating any wall damage. Thus, the disclosed method and system is not an anchor but a unique method and system of self-clamping and securing an object on a wall surface.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The innovation is now described with reference to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals are used to refer to like elements throughout. In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding thereof. It may be evident, however, that the innovation can be practiced without these specific details.

The present invention discloses an improved method and system of removably securing an object on a vertical surface or relatively vertical surface, such as a wall. The method and system of securing allows for easily hanging given items in a plurality of sizes and weights, at a specific height relative to the ground. A user inserts the pins of the base into the wall by applying a downward angled pressure to the top of the base in the direction of the wall, such that the base is flush against the wall. As downward force and force against the wall is increased, the base is forced more tightly against the wall, thereby negating any potential failure of the base attachment to the wall and also negating any wall damage.

Included herein is a set of flow charts representative of exemplary methodologies for performing novel aspects of the disclosed architecture. While, for purposes of simplicity of explanation, the one or more methodologies shown herein, for example, in the form of a flow chart or flow diagram, are shown and described as a series of acts, it is to be understood and appreciated that the methodologies are not limited by the order of acts, as some acts may, in accordance therewith, occur in a different order and/or concurrently with other acts from that shown and described herein. For example, those skilled in the art will understand and appreciate that a methodology could alternatively be represented as a series of interrelated states or events, such as in a state diagram. Moreover, not all acts illustrated in a methodology may be required for a novel implementation.

Referring initially to the drawings, FIG. 1 illustrates a method of securing an object on a vertical surface or relatively vertical surface, such as a wall. The method of securing allows for easily hanging given items in a plurality of sizes and weights, at a specific height relative to the ground. At 102, a location is established on a vertical surface for object height. Thus, a user (not shown) determines where on a wall, a partition, a divider, or other vertical surface to hang an object, an item, or other suitable article as is known in the art. Typically, the object is hung on drywall, such as ½ inch or ⅝ inch drywall.

At 104, the object to be secured to the vertical surface comprises a base. The base can be any size or shape as is known in the art, depending on the wants and needs of a user. The base can be manufactured of wood, plastic, metal, etc., or any other suitable material as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

Further, the base of the object may comprise a hanger, a shelf, or a picture frame, etc., or any other suitable object or item that can be secured to the front surface of the base. If a hanger is used, the hanger allows users to hang items, such as clothing, purses, picture frames, etc., or any other suitable item can be hung from the hanger as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. The hanger, shelf, picture frame, etc. can be manufactured of metal, plastic, wood, etc., or any other suitable material as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. Typically, the item (i.e., the hanger, the shelf, the picture frame, etc.) is secured to the base via gluing, bending, screwing, welding, molded, etc., or any other suitable securing means as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

The base also comprises a front and a back surface, with the shelf or other item secured to the front surface and at least one pin or other suitable fastener extending outwardly and downwardly from the back surface. The pin or other suitable fasteners include pins, nails, screws, rivets, etc., or any other suitable fasteners as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. The pin is secured to the back surface of the base by the customer or manufactured in. Further, the pin is secured via gluing, nailing, drilling, stapling, molded, etc., or any other suitable securing means as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. Typically, two spaced apart pins are provided but the back surface of the base is not limited to two pins and may even comprise only one pin or more than two pins. The pins would need to be at least one inch apart on the base, and a user would typically want to position the pins at opposite ends of the base. Additional pins would allow the object to hold more weight, but would also cause the object to be harder to install because of the distributed load created by the multiple pins. The pins would generally be constructed of steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, plastic, etc., though any other suitable material may be used to manufacture the pins as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

The pins are embedded in or bent from (i.e., one piece pin bent into two) the back surface of the base and extend outwardly and downwardly from the back surface. The pins form a pin angle of approximately between 20 and 40 degrees with the back surface. Further, the pins have a pin diameter of approximately between 0.05 and 0.09 inches. Typically, the pins protrude from the back of the base at a pin length of approximately between ¼ and 1.0 inch.

At 106, the orthogonal distance from the back surface of the base to a terminal point of the shelf is determined. The item may comprise a hanger, a shelf, or a picture frame, etc., or any other suitable item that can be secured to the front surface of the base, and the terminal point is considered the farthest point on the item away from the base where a load can be placed.

At 108, the determined orthogonal distance is multiplied by approximately 1.5 to determine at what position to place the at least one pin on the back surface of the base. And at 110, the at least one pin is inserted into the determined position on the back surface of the base. For example, if an orthogonal distance from the back surface of the base to the terminal point of the shelf is 2 inches, then a pin must be placed at a vertical distance 3 inches up from the bottom of the base or at the point where the shelf or other object connects to the base (i.e., approximately 1.5 times the orthogonal distance) (as shown in FIG. 3). Preferably, the vertical distance is approximately 90° to the orthogonal distance, however it is understood that minor variations can exist and that the distance could not be a true vertical distance relative to the floor or other ground surface.

FIG. 2 illustrates further aspects in the method of securing an object on a vertical surface of FIG. 1. At 200, the height of the base is extended in a vertical direction down past the shelf to increase the amount of weight the object can hold. The disclosed method of securing an object on a vertical surface allows for the prevention of at least two failures, vertical failure and rotational failure. If the amount of weight exceeds the resistance, then vertical failure will occur and the object will slide down the wall. If the pivot point is exceeded, the point where the object starts pulling out and stops pulling down against the wall, then the object will rotate forward and fall out of the wall.

Specifically, the number and placement of the pins, the angle of the pins, the clamping pressure from the pins to the base, as well as the height of the base prevents against these two failures. For example, if an orthogonal distance from the back surface of the base to the terminal point of the shelf is 2 inches, then a pin must be placed at a vertical distance of at least 3 inches up from the bottom of the base at a point where the shelf meets the base (i.e., approximately 1.5 times the orthogonal distance) (as shown in FIG. 3). That one pin would be able to hold approximately 20 lbs. on the shelf (this is based on the given ranges of the diameter and length of the pin and clamping process and angle of the pin as disclosed above). Adding a second pin (as shown in FIG. 4), spaced at least one inch from the first pin would allow the shelf to hold approximately 40 lbs. (this is based on the given ranges of the diameter and length of the pins and clamping process and angle of the pins as disclosed above). Extending the base in a vertical direction down past the shelf (as shown in FIG. 5) would allow the shelf to hold additional weight. Typically, each inch that the base extends past the shelf allows the object to hold approximately another 5 lbs. on the shelf.

At 202, the pins are fully inserted into the wall such that the back surface of the base is flush against the wall. Specifically, a user exerts a downward force, preferably axially in-line with the pin (i.e., at the angle of the pins) on the top of the base with his or her hand, typically the palm or heel of the hand. The downward force drives the pins into the wall or other vertical surface, causing the back surface of the base to be flush against the wall. As downward force and force against the wall is increased, the base is forced more tightly against the wall, thereby negating any potential failure of the base attachment to the wall and also negating any wall damage.

And at 204, the object is removably hung from the wall without damaging the wall. Specifically, the disclosed method of mounting an object on a wall or other vertical surface provides a unique leverage against a wall wherein the greater the weight of an object hung from the base, the greater the force of the base against the wall. This method provides for substantially weighted objects to hang from a relatively small base, without wall damage and without hanging failures typical of other hangers. The method further provides for relatively minor wall damage, with the only damage being that created by the pins angled downwardly and outwardly from the back surface of the base. Further, the base can be provided in a plurality of sizes to accommodate a widespread diversity of hanging needs.

FIG. 3 illustrates an example of the wall mounted hanger system 300. The wall mounted hanger system 300 comprises a base 302 comprising a front surface 304 and a back surface 306. The base 302 can be any size or shape as is known in the art, depending on the wants and needs of a user. The base can be manufactured of wood, plastic, metal, etc., or any other suitable material as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

Further, the base 302 may comprise a hanger, a shelf, or a picture frame, etc., or any other suitable object or item 310 that can be secured to the front surface 304 of the base 302. If a hanger is used, the hanger allows users to hang items, such as clothing, purses, picture frames, etc., or any other suitable item can be hung from the hanger as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. The hanger, shelf, picture frame, etc. can be manufactured of metal, plastic, wood, etc., or any other suitable material as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. Typically, the item 310 (i.e., the hanger, the shelf, the picture frame, etc.) is secured to the base 302 via gluing, screwing, welding, molded, etc., or any other suitable securing means as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

The base 302 also comprises at least one pin 308 extending outwardly and downwardly from the back surface 306. The pin 308 is secured to the back surface 306 of the base 302 by the customer or manufactured in. Further, the pin 308 is secured via gluing, nailing, drilling, stapling, molded, etc., or any other suitable securing means as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. The pin 308 would generally be constructed of steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, plastic, etc., though any other suitable material may be used to manufacture the pin 308 as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

The pin 308 is embedded in the back surface 306 of the base 302 and extends outwardly and downwardly from the back surface 306. The pin 308 forms a pin angle of approximately between 20 and 40 degrees with the back surface 306. Further, the pin 308 has a pin diameter of approximately between 0.05 and 0.09 inches. Typically, the pin 308 protrudes from the back surface 306 of the base 302 at a pin length of approximately between ¼ and 1.0 inch.

Furthermore, placement of the pin 308 in the back surface 306 of the base 302 is determined based on the orthogonal distance from the back surface 306 of the base to a terminal point 312 of the shelf 310 or other object. Specifically, the orthogonal distance from the back surface 306 of the base 302 to a terminal point 312 of the shelf 310 is determined. Further, the item may comprise a hanger, a shelf, or a picture frame, etc., or any other suitable item that can be secured to the front surface 304 of the base 302, and the terminal point 312 is considered the farthest point on the item away from the base where a load can be placed. This determined orthogonal distance is then multiplied by approximately 1.5 to determine at what position to place the pin 308 on the back surface 306 of the base 302.

For example, if an orthogonal distance from the back surface 306 of the base 302 to the terminal point 312 of the shelf 310 is two inches, then the pin 308 must be placed at a vertical distance three inches up from the bottom of the base 302 (i.e., approximately 1.5 times the orthogonal distance) (as shown in FIG. 3). Thus, utilizing a base 302 with a shelf 310 secured to the front surface 304 and having an orthogonal distance from the back surface 306 of the base 302 to the terminal point 312 of the shelf 310 of two inches, and placing a single pin 308 on the back surface 306 of the base 302 at a height of three inches from the bottom of the base 302, allows for a wall mounted hanger system 300 that can hold up to approximately 20 lbs. This weight approximation is based on the given ranges of the diameter and length of the pin 308 and clamping process and angle of the pin 308 as disclosed above.

FIG. 4 illustrates an example of the wall mounted hanger system 400 comprising two pins 408. Typically, two spaced apart pins 408 are provided for the wall mounted hanger system 400 but the back surface 406 of the base 402 is not limited to two pins 408 and may even comprise more than two pins. The pins 408 would need to be at least one inch apart on the base 402, and a user would typically want to position the pins 408 at opposite ends of the base 402. Additional pins would allow the wall mounted hanger system 400 to hold more weight, but would also cause the system 400 to be harder to install because of the distributed load created by the multiple pins (i.e., it will make it more difficult for a user to tap or press the system 400 into the wall). The pins would generally be constructed of steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, plastic, etc., though any other suitable material may be used to manufacture the pins as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

For example, if an orthogonal distance from the back surface 406 of the base 402 to the terminal point 412 of the shelf 410 is two inches, then the pins 408 must be placed at a vertical distance three inches up from the bottom of the base 402 (i.e., approximately 1.5 times the orthogonal distance) and spaced apart from one another at a distance of approximately at least one inch (as shown in FIG. 4). Thus, utilizing a base 402 with a shelf 410 secured to the front surface and having an orthogonal distance from the back surface 406 of the base 402 to the terminal point 412 of the shelf 410 of two inches, and placing two pins 408 on the back surface 406 of the base 402 at a height of three inches from the bottom of the base 402, allows for a wall mounted hanger system 400 that can hold up to approximately 40 lbs. The addition of the extra pin 408 doubles the amount of weight the wall mounted hanger system 400 can hold (i.e., from 20 lbs. to 40 lbs.). This weight approximation is based on the given ranges of the diameter and length of the pins 408 and clamping process and angle of the pins 408 as disclosed above.

FIG. 5 illustrates an example of the wall mounted hanger system 500 comprising an extended base 502. The disclosed system 500 allows for the prevention of at least two failures, vertical failure and rotational failure. If the amount of weight exceeds the resistance, then vertical failure will occur and the wall mounted hanger will slide down the wall. If the pivot point is exceeded, the point where the wall mounted hanger starts pulling out and stops pulling down against the wall, then the wall mounted hanger will rotate forward and fall out of the wall. Specifically, the number and placement of the pins 508, as well as the height of the base 502 prevents against these two failures.

For example, if an orthogonal distance from the back surface 506 of the base 502 to the terminal point 512 of the shelf 510 is two inches, then the pins 508 must be placed at a vertical distance three inches up from the bottom of the base 502 at a point where the shelf meets the base (i.e., approximately 1.5 times the orthogonal distance) and spaced apart from one another at a distance of approximately at least one inch. Additionally, extending the base 502 in a vertical direction down past the shelf 510 (as shown in FIG. 5) would allow the shelf 510 to hold additional weight. Typically, each inch that the base 502 extends past the shelf 510 allows the wall mounted hanger system 500 to hold approximately another 5 lbs. on the shelf 510.

Thus, utilizing a base 502 with a shelf 510 secured to the front surface 504 and having an orthogonal distance from the back surface 506 of the base 502 to the terminal point 512 of the shelf 510 of two inches, and placing two pins 508 on the back surface 506 of the base 502 at a height of approximately three inches from the bottom of the base 502, and extending the base 502 in a vertical direction down past the shelf approximately two inches 514, allows for a wall mounted hanger system 500 that can hold up to approximately 50 lbs. The extension of the base 502 in a vertical direction down past the shelf two inches 514 increases the amount of weight the wall mounted hanger system 500 can hold (i.e., from 40 lbs. to 50 lbs.). This weight approximation is based on the given ranges of the diameter and length of the pins 508 and clamping process and angle of the pins 508 as disclosed above.

FIG. 6 illustrates the wall mounted hanger system 600 in use. In operation, a user would select a base 602 in the desired height and thickness. The base can be any size or shape as is known in the art, depending on the wants and needs of a user. The base can be manufactured of wood, plastic, metal, etc., or any other suitable material as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

A user would then secure the hanger 610 or other item (i.e., picture frame, shelf, etc.) onto the base 602. If a hanger 610 is used, the hanger 610 allows users to hang items, such as clothing, purses, picture frames, etc., or any other suitable item can be hung from the hanger 610 as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. The hanger, shelf, picture frame, etc. can be manufactured of metal, plastic, wood, etc., or any other suitable material as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention. Typically, the item (i.e., the hanger, the shelf, the picture frame, etc.) is secured to the base 602 via gluing, screwing, welding, etc., or any other suitable securing means as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

Then, the user or manufacturer embeds at least one pin 608 in the back surface 606 of the base 602. The pin 608 is embedded in the base 602 such that the pin 608 extends outwardly and downwardly from the back surface 606. Typically, two spaced apart pins 608 are provided on the back surface 606 of the base 602. Additional pins would allow the wall mounted hanger system 600 to hold more weight. The pins 608 form a pin angle of approximately between 20 and 40 degrees with the back surface 606. Further, the pins 608 have a pin diameter of approximately between 0.05 and 0.09 inches. Typically, the pins 608 protrude from the back surface 606 of the base 602 at a pin length of approximately between ¼ and 1.0 inch. Further, the pins 608 are spaced apart at a pin distance of approximately at least one inch or more. The pins would generally be constructed of steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, plastic, etc., though any other suitable material may be used to manufacture the pins as is known in the art without affecting the overall concept of the invention.

Furthermore, placement of the pins 608 in the back surface 606 of the base 602 is determined based on the orthogonal distance from the back surface 606 of the base 602 to a terminal point 612 of the hanger 610 or other item. The item may comprise a hanger, a shelf, or a picture frame, etc., or any other suitable item that can be secured to the front surface 604 of the base 602, and the terminal point 612 is considered the farthest point on the item away from the base 602 where a load can be placed. This determined orthogonal distance is then multiplied by approximately 1.5 to determine at what position to place the pins 608 on the back surface 606 of the base 602.

For example, if an orthogonal distance from the back surface 606 of the base 602 to the terminal point 612 of the hanger 610 is two inches, then the pins 608 must be placed at a vertical distance three inches up from the bottom of the base 602 (i.e., approximately 1.5 times the orthogonal distance)(as shown in FIG. 6). Further, extending the base 602 in a vertical direction 614 down past the hanger 610 would allow the hanger 610 to hold additional weight. Typically, each inch that the base 602 extends past the hanger 610 allows the wall mounted hanger system 600 to hold approximately another 5 lbs. on the hanger 610.

Once assembled at the required dimensions, the wall mounted hanger system 600 is then inserted into the wall. The pins 608 are fully inserted into the wall such that the back surface 606 of the base 602 is flush against the wall. Specifically, a user exerts a downward force, preferably axially in-line with the pins 608 (i.e., at the angle of the pins) on the top of the base with his or her hand, typically the palm or heel of the hand. The downward force drives the pins 608 into the wall or other vertical surface, causing the back surface 606 of the base 602 to be flush against the wall. The desired object (not shown) is then hung on the hanger 610 creating a downward force. As downward force and force against the wall is increased, the base 602 is forced more tightly against the wall, thereby negating any potential failure of the base 602 attachment to the wall and also negating any wall damage.

Thus, the system and method of mounting an object on a wall or other vertical surface provides a unique leverage against a wall wherein the greater the weight of an object hung from the base 602, the greater the force of the base 602 against the wall. This system and method provides for substantially weighted objects to hang from a relatively small base, without wall damage and without hanging failures typical of other hangers. The method further provides for relatively minor wall damage, with the only damage being that created by the pins 608 angled downwardly and outwardly from the back surface 606 of the base 602. Further, the base 602 can be provided in a plurality of sizes to accommodate a widespread diversity of hanging needs.

What has been described above includes examples of the claimed subject matter. It is, of course, not possible to describe every conceivable combination of components or methodologies for purposes of describing the claimed subject matter, but one of ordinary skill in the art may recognize that many further combinations and permutations of the claimed subject matter are possible. Accordingly, the claimed subject matter is intended to embrace all such alterations, modifications and variations that fall within the spirit and scope of the appended claims. Furthermore, to the extent that the term “includes” is used in either the detailed description or the claims, such term is intended to be inclusive in a manner similar to the term “comprising” as “comprising” is interpreted when employed as a transitional word in a claim.
