Fallen undermount sink repair apparatus and method
View Patent ↗A fallen undermount sink complete repair apparatus includes a wall bracket having at least one flange portion configured for fixedly fastening to a vertical wall and a second central portion generally perpendicular to said flange portion, with an aperture therethrough. Additionally, there is an expandable elonogated member pivotably attached at a proximal end to the wall bracket, and at the distal end of the elongated member is a sink bracket head portion generally perpendicular to that of the elongated member and configured to press against a portion of the underside rim of a detached sink.
1. A fallen sink complete repair apparatus comprising:
a) a wall bracket configured for substantial weight bearing, said wall bracket having at least one flange portion configured for fixedly fastening to a vertical wall and a second central portion generally perpendicular to said flange portion, said central portion including at least one aperture therethrough;
b) an expandable elongated member having a preselected minimum length with an overall length adjustable via at least one threaded portion, said elongated member pivotably attached at a proximal end to said central wall bracket portion, and;
c) a sink bracket head portion centrally attached to a distal end of said elongated member and generally perpendicular to that of said elongated member, said sink bracket portion configured to press against a predetermined portion of an underside rim of a detached sink.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a sink bracket head portion has two sink-contact pads at opposing ends of a top edge of said sink bracket portion.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein said elongated member is a turnbuckle shaft with two threaded portions and a lock nut adjacent said proximal end.
