Abstract
A body of soft, pliable material is used to form a mounting support for securing objects to a substantially flat surface. The body has substantially parallel inner and outer major faces. The inner face is formed to have a slight concavity but is sufficiently soft and pliable to conform to and thus secure itself to roughened surfaces.
Claims19
A mounting support comprising:
- (a) a body having substantially parallel first and second substantially oppositely disposed major faces, the first face defining a periphery and a slightly concave inner surface within said periphery;
- and
- (b) a mounting stem extending from said second face wherein:
- (i) the ratio of the largest width of said periphery to the depth of the concavity is on the order of 20:1 when the mounting support is in its natural state, and
- (ii) the area defined by said periphery is not substantially increased when said first face is pressed against a mounting surface sufficiently to eliminate its concavity.
2 more elements
A combination comprising:
- (a) a refrigerated vault having a substantially transparent wall;
- (b) a mounting support secured to said wall comprising a body having substantially parallel first and second substantially oppositely disposed major faces and a mounting stem extending from said second face wherein:
- (i) the first face defines the periphery of said body and a slightly concave surface within said periphery when said body is in its natural state;
- (ii) the ratio of the largest width of said periphery to the depth of the concavity is on the order of 20:1 when the mounting support is in its natural state;
- and
- (iii) the area defined by said periphery is not substantially increased when said first face is pressed against a mounting surface sufficiently to eliminate its concavity;
- and
- (c) an object secured to said mounting stem and suspended within said refrigerated vault.

A combination as defined in claim 15 wherein a portion of the first face is substantially planar and a portion of the first face is concave.
A combination comprising:
- (a) a refrigerated vault having a substantially transparent wall;
- (b) a mount support secured to said wall comprising a body having substantially parallel first and second substantially oppositely disposed major faces and a mounting stem extending from said second face wherein:
- (i) the first face defines the periphery of said body and a slightly concave surface within said periphery when said body is in its natural state;
- (ii) the ratio of the largest width of said periphery to the depth of the concavity is greater than 20:1 when the mounting support is in its natural state;
- and
- (iii) the area defined by said periphery is not substantially increased when said first face is pressed against a mounting surface sufficiently to eliminate its concavity;
- and
- (c) an object secured to said mounting stem and suspended within said refrigerated vault.
