Patent ID: 11346494

Abstract:
Disclosed is a customizable in-ground stand that retains its position in response to off-center, leaning, and/or top-heavy forces imposed onto it by a retained object. The stand includes an elongated tube. The stand includes an interchangeable retention ring with a downward extension that attaches to a top of the elongated tube, and with a length of tube that extends laterally in front of the elongated tube as an incomplete ring from the downward extension. The stand further includes an interchangeable base with a rod that attaches to a bottom of the elongated tube, and with support members that extend outwards from each side of the rod. Each of the support members has a vertical triangular plate that extends perpendicularly from the rod and that narrows to a particular point towards a bottom of the rod, and a lip that extends perpendicularly over each vertical triangular plate.
