Abstract

A wall and ceiling mount for receiving a fastening rope, the mount comprising screw receptacles for the wall and ceiling fastening, a receiving opening for the introduction of the fastening rope, and a fastening region for the releasable fastening of the rope. The receiving opening is arranged on the lower side between two screw receptacles and is spanned by a curved connecting region. The outlet opening in the rope guide running in the wall and ceiling mount being arranged frontally and approximately centrally on the wall and ceiling mount, and, above said outlet opening. A further screw receptacle forming a fastening region on which the loop end rests, a mount at said fastening region securing the loop end which is layable releasably thereon.

Claims

1. A wall and ceiling mount (3) for receiving a fastening rope (1), comprising screw receptacles (8) for the wall and ceiling mount (3), a receiving opening (4) for the introduction of the fastening rope (1), and a fastening region (6) for the releasable fastening of the rope (1), wherein

the receiving opening (4) is arranged on a lower side between two screw receptacles (8′

and 8″

) of the screw receptacles and is spanned by a curved connecting region (9),

an outlet opening (5) in a rope guide running in the wall and ceiling mount (3) being arranged frontally and approximately centrally on the wall and ceiling mount (3),

and, above said outlet opening (5), a further screw receptacle (8′

″

) of the screw receptacles forming a fastening region (6) on which a loop end (2) rests,

a mount at said fastening region (6) securing the loop end (2) which is layable releasably thereon.

2. The wall and ceiling mount as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rope guide (10) in the wall and ceiling mount (3) is formed by the lateral walls of the lower screw receptacles (8′

and 8″

), the curved connecting region (9) and a fastening wall or fastening ceiling supporting the wall and ceiling mount (3).

3. The wall and ceiling mount as claimed in claim 1, wherein

the rope guide (10) in the wall and ceiling mount (3) is formed from the lateral walls of the lower screw receptacles (8′

and 8″

), the curved connecting region (9) and a wall-mount rear surface (11).

4. The wall and ceiling mount as claimed in claim 1, wherein

the further screw receptacle (8′

″

) is designed to protrude in relation to the outlet opening (5) and thus forms a rest for the fastening region (6) for the loop end (2),

as a result of which guide regions (12) which are set back in relation to the protruding screw receptacle (8′

″

) laterally on both sides thereof are formed for the loop end (2).

5. The wall and ceiling mount as claimed in claim 1, wherein the fastening region (6) formed by the further screw receptacle (8′

″

) is placed in terms of its depth in front of the outlet opening (5) at least by the diameter of a rope thickness maximally provided for the wall and ceiling mount (3).

6. The wall and ceiling mount as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mount for the loop end (2) on the fastening region (6) is designed as a retaining lug (7).

7. The wall and ceiling mount as claimed in claim 6, wherein the retaining lug (7) is designed as a body engaging in a U-shaped manner around the loop end (2), wherein the retaining lug (7) is at a distance from the rear fastening surface (11) of the wall and ceiling mount (3) and therefore the retaining lug (7) together with a resting surface of the fastening wall or fastening ceiling forms a receiving gap for the insertion of the loop end (2).

8. The wall and ceiling mount as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mount for the loop end (2) on the fastening region (6) is designed as a groove.
