Lifting rack j-hook phone/camera mount
View Patent ↗A lifting rack j-hook phone/camera mount assembly is provided. The lifting rack j-hook phone/camera mount assembly includes a flexible arm that extends from an electronic device to the lifting rack frame member to selective attach to one of the plurality of holes along the frame member. A mounting peg and modified j-hook body is dimensioned and shaped to facilitate that selective attachment.
1 . A lifting rack j-hook mount assembly comprising:
a flexible arm extending from a proximal end to a distal end;
the distal end configured to operatively associate with an electronic device mount;
the proximal end of the flexible arm configured to operatively associate with a frame member of a lifting rack, wherein the proximal end of the flexible arm selectively associates with one of a plurality of holes of said frame member; and
a modified j-hook body configured to receive at least two faces of said frame member so as to place a brace plate between the proximal end of the flexible arm and said frame member.
2 . The lifting rack j-hook mount assembly of claim 1 , wherein the modified j-hook body comprises a mounting peg that provides a connector that passes through the one of the plurality of holes and the brace plate.
3 . The lifting rack j-hook mount assembly of claim 2 , wherein the modified j-hook body further comprises an angle bracket portion having two legs orthogonally joined, and wherein at least one leg is parallel with a first face of the at least two faces of the frame member that is orthogonal relative to the brace plate.
4 . The lifting rack j-hook mount assembly of claim 3 , wherein an upper elevation of the angle bracket portion is downward of an upper elevation of the brace plate.
5 . The lifting rack j-hook mount assembly of claim 4 , further comprising a threaded ring disposed between the brace plate and the proximal end of the flexible arm.
6 . The lifting rack j-hook mount assembly of claim 5 , wherein an electronic device removably mounts to the electronic device mount.
7 . The lifting rack j-hook mount assembly of claim 6 , wherein the flexible arm comprises multiple articulating joints.
8 . A method of selectively and removably attaching an electronic device to the lifting rack of the lifting rack j-hook mount assembly of claim 3 , the method comprises:
engaging the at least one leg of the angle bracket portion in a parallel orientation of the first face of the at least two faces of the frame member of the lifting rack so that the brace plate is adjacent and parallel with a second face of said at least two faces of the frame member to which the proximal end of the flexible arm is desired to be operatively associated to.
