Patent ID: 8297573

Claim:
A support and attachment assembly configured for attachment to a substrate structure, comprising: a rigid body comprising a front surface, a back surface opposite the front surface, and a bottom surface extending between the front and back surfaces; a hinge flange which extends from the front surface; a boss member which extends from the bottom surface, the boss member forming a distal end of a support channel member which extends through the body, said channel member characterized as a tubular conduit with an annular interior surface; a latching member coupled to the body, wherein the support and attachment assembly is structurally configured for attachment to the substrate structure by insertion of the hinge flange into a hinge aperture in the substrate structure, rotation of the body while the hinge flange remains in said hinge aperture to insert the boss member into a boss aperture through the substrate structure and to bring the bottom surface into facing relation with a top surface of the substrate structure, and contacting engagement of the latching member with the substrate structure to lockingly secure the support and attachment assembly to said substrate structure; and a securing mechanism coupled to the channel member to contactingly engage a shaft of a tool support extending along said tubular conduit adjacent the annular interior surface, the securing mechanism comprising a threaded set screw that extends through said annular interior surface.
