Abstract
A planar pointed body, impacted through a sheetrock wall to create a rectangular notch for sighting therethrough a central opening in the planar body incident to a self-threading screw being applied along the line of sight into threaded engagement with said central opening so that the planar body serves as a support for the screw when serving a wall mounting function.
Claims2
A screw support for a wall mount of a type in which a screw is threadably disposed through a support wall for engagement to an operative member strategically positioned behind said wall, said operative member supporting said screw comprising a planar body of a selected wall-penetrating thin gauge metal material having proximal and distal edges, said proximal edge being formed as a rectangular surface for the application thereagainst of an impacting force and said distal edge being pointed to penetrate through said wall causing an entry slot, opposite side edges extending between said proximal and distal edges and each of said side edges having a notch therein, a central screw-receiving hole in said planar body located between said notches, and a closed loop rubber band attached to said body at said notches so as to position in extending relation across said central screw-receiving hole a length portion of said rubber band which is adapted to be stretched into a nominal size to facilitate passage through said slot and having another portion accessible in front of said wall, whereby said planar body is positioned using the accessible rubber band portion so as to align said slot with said central screw-receiving hole for receiving said screw threaded through said slot.
