Abstract:
1. An articulated arm assembly for movably mounting an object to a support surface, said assembly comprising: a hinge configured to be coupled to the support surface; a hemi-cylindrical arm operationally coupled to said hinge wherein said hemi-cylindrical arm is positionable at a selected position with respect to said hinge; and a mounting arm operationally coupled to said hemi-cylindrical arm wherein said mounting arm is configured to support the object wherein the object is positionable at a selected position with respect to the support surface; wherein an outer edge of said hinge being curved wherein said hinge has a bulb shaped cross section taken along a lateral axis extending through a first lateral side and a second lateral side of said hinge; wherein a back side of a circular mount rotatably coupled to a flat end of each of a first and second internal plate of said hinge; wherein said hinge being one of a plurality of said hinges; wherein said hemi-cylindrical arm being one of a pair of hemi-cylindrical arms; wherein said hinge comprising a pair of internal plates rotatably coupled between a pair of external plates; wherein a second lateral side of a first one of said pair of internal plates being coextensively coupled to a first lateral side of a second one of said pair of internal plates; wherein a first lateral side of said first internal plate being rotatably coupled to a second lateral side of a first one of said pair of external plates; a second lateral side of said second internal plate being rotatably coupled to a first lateral side of a second one of said pair of external plates; a back side of a circular wall mount coupled to a flat end of each of a first and second external plate of a first one of a plurality of hinges; a front side of said circular wall mount being coupled to the support surface wherein said first hinge is retained on the support surface; a first end of a first hemi-cylindrical arm is coupled to a front side of a circular mount on a first hinge wherein a second end of said first hemi-cylindrical arm is coupled to flat end of each of first and second external plates of a second one of a plurality of hinges; a first end of a second hemi-cylindrical arm is coupled to a front side of a circular mount on a second hinge wherein a second end of said second hemi-cylindrical arm is coupled to a flat end of each of a first and second external plate of a third one of a plurality of hinges; wherein the first hemi-cylindrical arm and the second hemi-cylindrical arm comprise the pair of hemi-cylindrical arms; wherein said second hemi-cylindrical arm is positionable at a selected angle with respect to said hemi-first cylindrical arm; wherein the first hemi-cylindrical arm is able to rotate with respect to a first longitudinal axis; wherein the second hemi-cylindrical arm is able to rotate with respect to a second longitudinal axis; wherein both the first hemi-cylindrical arm and the second hemi-cylindrical arm are rotatably engaged with respect to the second external plate and the first external plate, respectively; wherein a middle portion of said mounting arm being slidably coupled to a basal portion of said mounting arm; a top portion of said mounting arm being slidably coupled to said middle portion of said mounting arm wherein said mounting arm has a telescopically adjustable length; a bottom end of said basal portion of said mounting arm being movably coupled to a back side of a mounting arm plate.
