Provided is a wall mount system. More particularly, provided is a system adapted to removably attach objects to walls.
It is often desirable to mount or attach objects to walls for display or storage.
Objects desirable to mount to walls may comprise trophies, mirrors, paintings, pictures, sculptures, televisions, speakers, signs, diplomas, certificates, or other objects. Given the broad variety of objects desirable to mount to walls the characteristics of the objects relevant to mounting, such as the weight, thickness, other dimensions, and other variables of the objects are difficult to predict.
Trophies, such as fish, antlers, animals, animal heads, and other trophies, can vary enormously and present a large number of variables important to proper mounting. For example, a trophy may weigh anywhere from a few pounds to more than hundred pounds. Mounting a very heavy trophy on a wall securely requires very strong mounting hardware. This is especially important given that many trophies are mounted in an eccentric or cantilevered manner with the center of gravity substantially displaced from the region to which the mount is engaged. A trophy may be mounted on a wide variety of backings and boards used to secure the trophy for display. These backings and boards may vary in thickness, strength, and otherwise. Mounting hardware that relies on penetration of or similar engagement with backings or boards are subject to pull-out or similar failures due to the relevant properties of the backings or boards. Further, it is common for the skin or hide or a trophy animal to be pulled over a backing and board to conceal the periphery of the skin or hide. Large or bulky mounting hardware can create an obstruction to flush mounting or otherwise make it difficult to conceal the back of the trophy or the mounting hardware itself.
Conventional mounting hardware is poorly adapted for mounting a wide variety of trophies and other objects of differing weight, thickness, and other dimensions, in a manner that is secure, resilient, easy-to-use, and mounts in close proximity to the wall.
It remains desirable to provide a simple system capable of removably attaching a wide-variety of objects to walls.
Provided is a wall mount system that may comprise a wall bracket and an object bracket selectively connectable to the wall bracket. A wall bracket may comprise a wall plate and a first elongated shank. A first elongated shank may comprise an engagement surface adapted to support a first counter-engagement surface. An object bracket may comprise an object plate, a first counter-engagement surface integral to the object plate, and a feature adapted to engage and support an associated object to be mounted. An object plate may comprise a first object plate surface, a second object plate surface facing opposite to and away from the first object plate surface, and a first through hole connecting the first object plate surface with the second object plate surface. The first through hole may be adapted to permit insertion of the first elongated shank into the first through hole.
Further provided is a wall mount system that may comprise a wall bracket and an object bracket selectively connectable to the wall bracket. A wall bracket may comprise a wall plate and a first elongated shank that may comprise a first plurality of engagement surfaces adapted to engage a first counter-engagement surface and a second-counter engagement surface. A wall plate may comprise a first wall plate surface, a second wall plate surface facing substantially opposite to and away from the first wall plate surface, and a first hole through the wall plate.

A steel wall bracket may comprise a wall plate, a first elongated shank, and a strengthening protrusion, rib, or flange integrally connected to the wall bracket. A wall plate may comprise a first wall plate surface, a second wall plate surface facing substantially opposite to and away from the first wall plate surface, a first hole through the wall plate, and a second hole through the wall plate. A first elongated shank may comprise a first plurality of engagement surfaces arranged in a stair-step or terrace-form and an engagement protrusion. The first plurality of engagement surfaces may be adapted to engage a first counter-engagement surface and a second-counter engagement surface. An object bracket may comprise an object plate, a first through hole adapted to permit insertion of the first elongated shank, a support surface integrally connected to the object plate and adapted to support an associated object to be mounted, and a capture surface. An object plate may comprise a first object plate surface and a second object plate surface facing opposite to and away from the first object plate surface. The second object plate surface may comprise a second counter-engagement surface. A first through hole may comprise a first counter-engagement surface and an engagement protrusion gap.

In certain embodiments, a capture surface faces substantially opposite to the wall 6 and a horizontal reaction force from the capture surface will be substantially opposite to a horizontal reaction force from the wall 6.
In certain embodiments, the offset between capture surface 70 and surface 40b is adapted to be substantially similar to that of the thickness of the object to be mounted 80. The thickness of an object to be mounted 80 may vary between different objects to be mounted. In certain embodiments, selection of an object plate 40 having an offset substantially similar to that of the thickness of the object to be mounted 80 provides a fit between the wall 6 and the capture surface 70 that secures the object to be mounted 80 tightly. In certain embodiments, in order to allow selection of an object plate 40 having an offset substantially similar to that of the thickness of an object to be mounted 80, different object plates 40 may have differing offset between capture surface 70 and surface 40b.
In certain embodiments, and without limitation, the object plate may comprise an adjustable element that is adapted to make up, or adjust to, differences between the thickness of an object to be mounted 80 and the offset between capture surface 70 and surface 40b. In certain embodiments the adjustable element may comprise a set-screw, threaded clamp, shim-plate, spring, elastomeric pad, or similar element. In certain embodiments, the capture surface 70 comprises a female threaded aperture adapted to operationally engage with a male threaded adjustable element.
In certain embodiments, and without limitation, the object bracket 30 may comprise a single piece of material bent to form or differentiate the object plate 40, the support surface 60, and the capture surface 70. As used herein, unless otherwise noted, “integrally connected” components are components formed of the same single piece. Accordingly, in embodiments in which the object bracket 30 comprises the single piece of material bent to form or differentiate the object plate 40, the support surface 60, and the capture surface 70, the object plate 40, support surface 60, and capture surface 70 will be integrally connected.
