Floor tile for mounting an accessory thereon, accessory for mounting to a floor tile, and floor tile and accessory assembly

An accessory, comprising:

• a base having a bottom section;
• an attachment member pivotally mounted to the base about a pivot axis of the attachment member, the attachment member comprising at least two arcuate hooks extending under the bottom section of the base, each of the at least two arcuate hooks comprising a foot fixedly connected to the attachment member and extending perpendicularly from a plane of the attachment member, each of the at least two arcuate hooks further comprising a free end extending perpendicularly from the foot along an arc about the pivot axis, the free end protruding from the foot in an arcuate direction;
• and
• at least one locating projection extending under the bottom section of the base and located radially outward from the pivot axis of the attachment member.

A floor tile and accessory assembly, comprising:

• a floor tile, comprising:
• four arcuate slots formed on an upper surface of the floor tile and defined about a common center of curvature of the four arcuate slots, and
• at least one positioning cavity formed on the upper surface of the floor tile and located radially outward from a common radius of curvature of the four arcuate slots;
• and
• an accessory adapted for being mounted on the floor tile, the accessory comprising:
• a base having a bottom section,
• an attachment member pivotally mounted to the base, the attachment member comprising between two and four arcuate hooks extending under the bottom section of the base, the arcuate hooks being selectively received in a corresponding number of the four arcuate slots of the floor tile, and
• at least one locating projection extending under the bottom section of the base and located radially outward from a pivot axis of the attachment member, the at least one locating projection being selectively received in the at least one positioning cavity of the floor tile;
• wherein:
• pivoting the attachment member in a first direction causes locking of the arcuate hooks in the arcuate slots for attaching the accessory on the floor tile, and
• pivoting the attachment member in a second direction opposite from the first direction causes unlocking of the arcuate hooks from the arcuate slots and allows removal of the accessory from the floor tile.
