Fastening assembly for wall mount applications

A fastening assembly for fastening an object to a structure, comprising:

• (a) a female unit having a supporting surface covering an interior portion, said supporting surface having defined thereon a U-shaped channel, which has a width and a thickness;
• (b) a male unit including,
• (i) a shaft portion having a length, and
• (ii) a head portion having at least one dimension extending from one edge of the head portion to a second edge of the head portion;
• and
• wherein the length of the shaft portion being greater than the thickness of the channel such that the shaft portion is capable of sliding into the channel, said at least one dimension of the head portion is greater than the width of the channel which prevents the head portion from escaping through the channel, and in an engaged position of the male and female unit, the shaft portion is immobilized at a closed end of the U-shaped channel, the male engages with the female unit by force of gravity and the supporting surface of the female unit immobilizes at least a portion of the male unit within the female unit.

A female unit capable of receiving a male unit, which has a shaft portion and a head portion, said female unit comprising:

• (i) a supporting surface capable of immobilizing at least a portion of the male unit within the female unit when the female unit engages with the male unit;
• (ii) an interior portion, the supporting surface covering the interior portion, the supporting surface having defined therein a U-shaped channel having a width and a thickness, the thickness of the channel is configured to be less than a length of the shaft portion and the width of the channel is configured to be less than at least one dimension which extends from one edge of the head portion to a second edge of the head portion, such that female unit is capable of allowing the shaft portion of the male unit to slide into the channel of the female unit;
• and
• wherein in an engaged position with the male unit, the female unit is capable of preventing the head portion of the male unit from escaping through the channel, a closed end of the U-shaped channel of the female unit is capable of immobilizing the shaft portion of the male unit, and the female unit is capable of engaging with the male unit by force of gravity.
