SUPPORTING AN OBJECT AT A WINDOW OF A BUILDING BY APPLYING OPPOSING FORCES TO AN INTERIOR SURFACE AND AN EXTERIOR SURFACE OF THE BUILDING

摘要

An apparatus for supporting an object at a window of a building comprises a first member, a second member, and a third member. The first member extends along at least a partial width of the window and abuts an interior surface of the building. The first member is configured to support the object by exerting an outward force on the interior surface of the building in response to a downward force exerted by the object. The first member also comprises at least two sections extending from the interior of the building to the exterior of the building. These sections may extend from the interior of the building to the exterior of the building about respective distal ends of the first member. The sum of the forces applied on the surfaces of the building are sufficient to secure the object to the building.

主权项

1. An apparatus that supports an object at a window of a building, the apparatus comprising:
a first member that abuts an interior surface of the building, where the first member supports the object by exerting an outward force on the interior surface of the building in response to a downward force exerted by the object, where the first member comprises at least two sections extending from the interior of the building to the exterior of the building; a continuous second member when coupled to one of the at least two sections of the first member supports the object by exerting an inward force on an exterior surface of the building in response to the downward force exerted by the object; and a continuous third member when coupled to another of the at least two sections of the first member supports the object by exerting an inward force on the exterior surface of the building in response to the downward force exerted by the object wherein the second member and the third member are coupled to one another at a location of the inward force exerted by the second and third members and at a location aligned about a medial portion of the first member.
