Speaker mount and assembly and method of disengagement thereof

1. A speaker mount, comprising:

a) a flange;

b) a support member coupled to the flange and having an elevated region spaced therefrom and a closer region closer to the flange than the elevated region;

c) a tab moveably coupled to the elevated region of the support member;

d) a tab bias member functionally coupled to the tab such that the tab is biased towards the flange;

e) a path guide functionally coupled to the tab and to the support member and shaped and positioned to restrict motion of the tab relative to the support member to a path between the elevated region and the closer region;

f) a blocking member functionally coupled to the tab such that in a blocking mode the blocking member obstructs free movement of the tab along the path guide and in a free mode does not obstruct; and

g) a trigger assembly functionally coupled to the blocking member such that the blocking member transitions from the blocking mode to the free mode when the trigger assembly is triggered.

2. The mount of claim 1 , wherein the support member is a tower.

3. The mount of claim 1 , wherein the flange circumscribes a perimeter of the mount.

4. The mount of claim 1 , wherein the trigger assembly includes a trigger bias member that biases the blocking member in a blocking mode.

5. The mount of claim 1 , wherein the path guide includes a vertical pathing and a rotational pathing that is substantially orthogonal to the vertical pathing.

6. The mount of claim 1 , wherein the trigger assembly includes a foot near the flange substantially parallel thereto and spaced therefrom.

7. The mount of claim 1 , further comprising a secondary blocking member functionally coupled to the tab such that if the tab is moved to the elevated region after the trigger assembly is triggered, the secondary blocking member restricts the tab to the elevated region.

8. The mount of claim 1 , further comprising an actuating member functionally coupled to the tab that when actuated causes the tab to move towards the elevated region.

9. A mount assembly, comprising:

a) a flange;

b) a support member coupled to the flange and having an elevated region spaced therefrom and a closer region closer to the flange than the elevated region;

c) a tab moveably coupled to the elevated region of the support member;

d) a tab bias member functionally coupled to the tab such that the tab is biased towards the flange;

e) a path guide functionally coupled to the tab and to the support member and shaped and positioned to restrict motion of the tab relative to the support member to a path between the elevated region and the closer region; wherein the path guide includes a vertical pathing and a rotational pathing that is substantially orthogonal to the vertical pathing;

f) a blocking member functionally coupled to the tab such that in a blocking mode the blocking member obstructs free movement of the tab along the path guide and in a free mode does not obstruct; and

g) a trigger assembly functionally coupled to the blocking member such that the blocking member transitions from the blocking mode to the free mode when the trigger assembly is triggered.

10. The mount of claim 9 , wherein the trigger assembly includes a trigger bias member that biases the blocking member in a blocking mode.

11. The mount of claim 10 , wherein the trigger assembly includes a foot near the flange substantially parallel thereto and spaced therefrom.

12. The mount of claim 11 , further comprising a secondary blocking member functionally coupled to the tab such that if the tab is moved to the elevated region after the trigger assembly is triggered, the secondary blocking member restricts the tab to the elevated region.

13. The mount of claim 12 , further comprising an actuating member functionally coupled to the tab that when actuated causes the tab to move towards the elevated region.

14. The mount of claim 13 , wherein the support member is a tower.

15. The mount of claim 14 , wherein the flange circumscribes a perimeter of the mount.

16. A speaker mount, comprising:

a) a flange that circumscribes a perimeter of the mount;

b) a tower coupled to the flange and having an elevated region spaced therefrom and a closer region closer to the flange than the elevated region;

c) a tab moveably coupled to the elevated region of the tower;

d) a tab bias member functionally coupled to the tab such that the tab is biased towards the flange;

e) a path guide functionally coupled to the tab and to the support member and shaped and positioned to restrict motion of the tab relative to the support member to a path between the elevated region and the closer region, wherein the path guide includes a vertical pathing and a rotational pathing that is substantially orthogonal to the vertical pathing;

f) a blocking member functionally coupled to the tab such that in a blocking mode the blocking member obstructs free movement of the tab along the path guide and in a free mode does not obstruct;

g) a trigger assembly functionally coupled to the blocking member such that the blocking member transitions from the blocking mode to the free mode when the trigger assembly is triggered, the trigger assembly including a trigger bias member that biases the blocking member in a blocking mode, and a foot near the flange substantially parallel thereto and spaced therefrom;

h) a secondary blocking member functionally coupled to the tab such that if the tab is moved to the elevated region after the trigger assembly is triggered, the secondary blocking member restricts the tab to the elevated region; and

i) an actuating member functionally coupled to the tab that when actuated causes the tab to move towards the elevated region.
