Abstract

A quick detach mount and method are disclosed. The mount includes an accessory receiving portion shaped to receive a quick detach interface, and a first arm extending from the accessory receiving portion. The quick detach mount is shaped to receive a first fastener and a second fastener, whereby the quick detach mount is shaped distribute a force from the accessory receiving portion.

Claims (62)

1. A quick detach mount, comprising:

an accessory receiving portion shaped to receive a quick detach interface;

a first arm extending from the accessory receiving portion;

a first recess shaped to receive a first fastener, the first fastener having an elongate axis in a first direction; and

a second recess shaped to receive a second fastener, the second fastener having an elongate axis in a second direction different from the first direction, wherein

the quick detach mount is shaped to receive the first fastener and the second fastener, whereby the quick detach mount is shaped to distribute a force from the accessory receiving portion.

2. The quick detach mount of claim 1 , further configured to couple to a firearm, and wherein the force is a carry force.

3. The quick detach mount of claim 1 , wherein:

the accessory receiving portion comprises a first engagement surface for engaging a first surface;

the first arm comprises a second engagement surface for engaging a second surface; and

the first arm comprises a third engagement surface for engaging a third surface.

4. The quick detach mount of claim 1 , further comprising:

a first engagement surface for engaging a first surface of a firearm;

a second engagement surface engaging a second surface of the firearm; and

a third engagement surface for engaging a third surface of the firearm; and wherein

the second and third engagement surfaces are surfaces on the first arm.

5. The quick detach mount of claim 1 , wherein:

the quick detach mount is shaped to receive a first fastener and a second fastener.

6. The quick detach mount of claim 1 , wherein:

the first fastener is movable in the first direction; and

the second fastener is movable in the second direction different from the first direction.

7. The quick detach mount of claim 6 , wherein:

the first direction is a vertical direction; and

the second direction is a horizontal direction.

8. The quick detach mount of claim 1 , wherein:

the first fastener and the second fastener are threaded.

9. The quick detach mount of claim 8 , wherein:

the first fastener passes through the first recess for threaded engagement with a component to which the quick detach mount is attached; and

the second fastener passes through the second recess for threaded engagement with the component.

10. The quick detach mount of claim 1 , wherein:

the first arm extends from the receiving portion in the first direction and the second direction different from the first direction.

11. The quick detach mount of claim 1 , wherein:

the first arm extends from the receiving portion in the first direction and the second direction different from the first direction; and

a second arm extends from the first arm in a third direction different from the second direction.

12. The quick detach mount of claim 11 , wherein:

the first arm comprises a curve.

13. The quick detach mount of claim 12 , wherein:

the first arm and the second arm form a recess therebetween for receiving one of the first or the second fastener.

14. A method of using a quick detach mount, the method comprising:

providing a quick detach mount having an accessory receiving portion shaped to receive a quick detach interface and a first arm extending from the accessory receiving portion;

attaching the quick detach mount to a component, wherein attaching comprises using a first fastener and a second fastener;

moving the first fastener in a first direction to attach the quick detach mount to the component;

moving the second fastener in a second direction different from the first direction to attach the quick detach mount to the component; and

distributing a carry force from the accessory receiving portion by way of the first fastener and the second fastener.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the component is a firearm and the first and second fasteners are threaded fasteners, the method further comprising:

attaching a quick detach interface of an accessory to the accessory receiving portion.

16. The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

using a first engagement surface of the quick detach mount to engage a first surface of the component;

using a second engagement surface to engage a second surface of the component; and

using a third engagement surface to engaging a third surface of the component.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the first arm extends from the receiving portion in the first direction and the second direction different from the first direction, the method further comprising:

causing the accessory receiving portion to abut a first surface of the component, the first surface comprising a polymeric material; and

causing the first arm to abut a second surface of the component and a third surface of the component, the second and third surfaces comprising a metallic material.

18. The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

attaching the quick detach mount to a firearm;

causing the accessory receiving portion to abut a polymeric portion of the firearm; and wherein

distributing the carry force from the accessory receiving portion includes distributing the carry force through the first arm to a metallic portion of the firearm.

19. A quick detach mount, comprising:

an accessory receiving portion shaped to receive a quick detach interface;

a first arm extending from the accessory receiving portion in a first direction and a second direction different from the first direction;

a second arm extends from the first arm in a third direction different from the second direction; and

the quick detach mount is shaped to receive a first fastener and a second fastener, whereby the quick detach mount is shaped to distribute a force from the accessory receiving portion.
