POLE MOUNTING SYSTEM

摘要

A pole mounting system comprises a support mounting and a pole base. The support mounting has a receiving aperture that tapers conically inwardly from a receiving aperture, and at least one helical guide channel is formed in a wall of the receiving recess and extends axially away from the receiving aperture. Each guide channel has a terminal reverse bend. The pole base has an insertion end tapering conically inwardly toward a tip thereof and having guide post(s) extending laterally therefrom. The insertion end and the receiving recess are of complementary shape. The insertion end of the pole base is inserted into the receiving recess with each guide post aligned with the entrance of a corresponding guide channel and rotated in one direction and then the other to drive the guide post(s) along the guide channel(s) until the outer surface of the insertion end engages the wall of the receiving recess.

1. A support mounting for releasably securably receiving a pole base, comprising:
a body; the body having a receiving aperture; the receiving aperture opening into a receiving recess in the body; the receiving recess tapering conically inwardly toward a distal end of the receiving recess, relative to the receiving aperture; at least one helical guide channel formed in a wall of the receiving recess and extending axially away from the receiving aperture; each helical guide channel having a channel entrance at the receiving aperture; each helical guide channel having a terminal reverse bend at a distal end thereof, relative to the receiving aperture.
