WIPO Patent Application WO2000025030
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
A hook (H, H'') and anchor (A, A'') assembly for use with hollow panels (W) such as walls and ceilings made of gypsum, comprises an anchor (A, A'') having first (10, 80/88) and second (12, 90) sections, a hook (H, H'') adapted to be secured to the anchor (A, A'') and to abut a visible surface (O) of the hollow wall (W). The anchor (A, A'') is adapted to be engaged to the hollow wall (W) such that its second section (12, 90) is located behind the wall (W) with the first section (10, 56, 80/88) extending through a hole defined in the wall (W). The hook (H, H'') has a wall-engaging flange (44, 94). The hook (H, H'') and the first section (10, 80/88) of the anchor (A, A'') are provided with adjustable cooperating threads for connecting them together while allowing for various relative positions therebetween, whereby the distance between the second section (12, 90) and the wall engaging flange (44, 94) may be varied such that the second section (12, 90) and the wall engaging flange (44, 94) act as a vice on the wall (W) for tightly installing the anchor (A, A'') and the hook (H, H'') thereon. Also, the anchor (A') may comprise successive first and second sections (54, 56) having different threads with the first section (54) being adapted to be engaged in a wooden member and with the hook being adapted to be engaged to the second section (56) such as to abut the wooden member.
