Patent ID: 7073758

Claim:
A partition mount for mounting between a pole and an abutting surface comprising: a pole interface on a mount body, the pole interface constructed and arranged to removably abut less than an entire perimeter of a side portion of exclusively an external region of the pole, the pole interface comprising a non-skid material; a head interface on the mount body, the head interface comprising a retaining mechanism adapted for coupling a head to the partition mount, the head interface spaced apart from the pole interface; and a biasing unit that outwardly biases the pole interface and head interface with respect to each other, such that relative positions of the pole interface and the head interface can be varied, and such that when mounted between the pole and the abutting surface, the outward bias of the biasing unit is operative through the pole interface and the head interface to suspend the partition mount in position between the pole and the abutting surface in a manner that the pole interface is the only portion of the partition mount in direct contact with the pole.
