Abstract
A mounting device comprises a collar part including a plurality of ramp portions on an interior side of the collar part, and a rotatable hub part comprising a plurality of protruding portions. The collar part is positioned around the rotatable hub part. When the rotatable hub part is rotated, respective ones of the plurality of protruding portions are configured to press against respective ones of the plurality of ramp portions and exert a force on the collar part which increases a dimension of the collar part.
Claims20
A mounting device comprising:
- a collar part comprising a plurality of ramp portions on an interior side of the collar part;
- and
- a rotatable hub part comprising a plurality of protruding portions;
- wherein the collar part is positioned around the rotatable hub part;
- and
- wherein, when the rotatable hub part is rotated, respective ones of the plurality of protruding portions are configured to press against respective ones of the plurality of ramp portions and exert a force on the collar part which increases a dimension of the collar part.
A method for suspending a cabinet door to be painted, comprising:
- securing a mounting device comprising a rotatable hub part and a collar part formed around the rotatable hub part to the cabinet door;
- and
- suspending the cabinet door from a support rack via the mounting device;
- wherein securing the mounting device to the cabinet door comprises:
- inserting a portion of the mounting device into a hinge hole of the cabinet door;
- and
- rotating the rotatable hub a designated number of degrees, wherein rotating the rotatable hub causes respective ones of a plurality of portions protruding from the rotatable hub to press against respective ones of a plurality of ramp portions on an interior surface of the collar part and exert a force on the collar part which increases a dimension of the collar part.
A mounting system for suspending a cabinet portion to be painted comprising:
- a mounting device securable to the cabinet portion;
- and
- a support rod extending between the mounting device and a support rack;
- wherein the support rod extends from the mounting device through a hole in the mounting device;
- and
- wherein the support rod engages with the support rack to suspend the cabinet portion from the support rack via the mounting device in a cantilevered configuration.
