Abstract

There is provided a pole system suitable for supporting other objects such as bird feeders, plants and the like, the pole system having a pole with at least one transversely extending aperture formed therein, a pin mounted in the aperture and extending exteriorly of the pole on opposite sides thereof, and a hub member having a bottom surface, the bottom surface including a scalloped wall which is arranged to receive the pin such that the hub member is supported, the scalloped wall permitting rotation of the hub when sufficient rotational force is applied thereto.

Claims (8)

1. A pole system comprising:

a pole having at least one transversely extending aperture formed therein, said aperture extending through said pole;

a pin mounted in said aperture, said pin extending exteriorly of said pole on opposite sides thereof; and

a hub member rotatably mounted on the pole, said hub member having a bottom surface, said bottom surface including a scalloped wall, said scalloped wall sitting on said pin such that said hub member is supported, said scalloped wall comprising a plurality of arcuate recesses so as to permit rotation of said hub about said pole when a sufficiently large rotational force is applied to said hub, said hub member further including an outer wall, said scalloped wall being located interiorly of said outer wall, said outer wall extending downwardly about said pin to thereby prevent removal of said pin.

2. The pole system of claim 1 further including a plurality of apertures extending through said pole.

3. The pole system of claim 1 further including a container, said container being supported by said hub member.

4. The pole system of claim 1 wherein said hub member includes a plurality of vertically extending inner channels, a plurality of supporting members each including a vertical segment, each of said vertical segments being designed to fit within a corresponding vertically extending inner channel.
