Abstract

The present disclosure describes a cosmetic mount (e.g., for mounting a cosmetic mirror to a wall) and a system that include the cosmetic mount. The cosmetic mount includes a base, an arm, and a coupler. The arm is coupled to the base at a first end of the arm. The coupler includes a coupler arm, a coupler base, and a coupler disk. The coupler arm is rotatably coupled to a second end of the arm opposite the first end such that the coupler arm extends from the arm along a first axis. The coupler base is coupled to the coupler arm. The coupler disk is coupled to the coupler base such that the coupler disk is rotatable about the first axis.

Claims (41)

1. A cosmetic mount comprising:

an arm comprising (i) a first bar at a first end of the arm and (ii) a second bar at a second end of the arm opposite the first end of the arm;

a base comprising:

a base arm defining a first cavity, wherein the first bar extends through the first cavity to couple the base arm to the first end of the arm such that the arm is rotatable at the first end about a first axis;

a base disk coupled to the base arm; and

a foundation coupled directly to the base disk such that the foundation is rotatable on the base disk about a second axis different from the first axis; and

a coupler comprising:

a coupler arm defining a second cavity, wherein the second bar extends through the second cavity to couple the coupler arm to the second end of the arm such that the coupler arm is rotatable at the second end about a third axis;

a coupler base coupled to the coupler arm; and

a coupler disk directly coupled to the coupler base such that the coupler disk is rotatable on the coupler base about a fourth axis different from the third axis.

2. The cosmetic mount of claim 1 , wherein the coupler disk is arranged to engage a mirror or a tablet such that the mirror or the tablet is rotatable in-plane.

3. The cosmetic mount of claim 1 , wherein the third axis is the first axis.

4. The cosmetic mount of claim 1 , wherein the base arm extends from the base disk along the first axis.

5. The cosmetic mount of claim 3 , wherein the coupler arm extends from the coupler base along the fourth axis.

6. The cosmetic mount of claim 1 , wherein the arm comprises a first portion and a second portion rotatably coupled to the first portion.

7. The cosmetic mount of claim 6 , wherein the first portion comprises the first end, and wherein the second portion comprises the second end.

8. The cosmetic mount of claim 1 , wherein the fourth first axis moves when the coupler arm rotates about the arm.

9. A system comprising:

an arm comprising (i) a first bar at a first end of the arm and (ii) a second bar at a second end of the arm opposite the first end of the arm;

a base comprising:

a base arm defining a first cavity, wherein the first bar extends through the first cavity to couple the base arm to the first end of the arm such that the arm is rotatable at the first end about a first axis;

a base disk coupled to the base arm; and

a foundation coupled directly to the base disk such that the foundation is rotatable on the base disk about a second axis different from the first axis; and

a coupler comprising:

a coupler arm defining a second cavity, wherein the second bar extends through the second cavity to couple the coupler arm to the second end of the arm such that the coupler arm is rotatable at the second end about a third axis;

a coupler base coupled to the coupler arm; and

a coupler disk directly coupled to the coupler base such that the coupler disk is rotatable on the coupler base about a fourth axis different from the third axis; and

a mirror arranged to engage the coupler disk such that the mirror is rotatable in-plane.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the third axis is the first axis.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the base arm extends from the base disk along the first axis.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the coupler arm extends from the coupler base along the fourth axis.

13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the arm comprises a first portion and a second portion rotatably coupled to the first portion.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the first portion comprises the first end.

15. An apparatus comprising:

an arm comprising (i) a first bar at a first end of the arm and (ii) a second bar at a second end of the arm opposite the first end of the arm;

a base arm defining a first cavity, wherein the first bar extends through the first cavity to couple the base arm to the first end of the arm such that the arm is rotatable at the first end about a first axis;

a base disk coupled to the base arm;

a foundation coupled to the base disk such that the foundation is rotatable on the base disk about a second axis different from the first axis;

a coupler arm defining a second cavity, wherein the second bar extends through the second cavity to couple the coupler arm to the second end of the arm such that the coupler arm is rotatable at the second end about a third axis;

a coupler base coupled to the coupler arm; and

a coupler disk directly coupled to the coupler base such that the coupler disk is rotatable on the coupler base about a fourth axis different from the third axis.
