Patent attributes
Angled coupling including main pass-through coupler to allow first threaded rod to pass therethrough and second coupling extending at angle therefrom to receive second threaded rod. Angled coupling can be used for multiple purposes including, but not limited to, adjusting location of threaded rod, seismic restraints, storm surge restraints and/or providing additional mounting points for support members. Main coupler is configured to be secured to any location on first threaded rod without requiring it to be screwed onto first threaded rod. Main coupler may include first half and second half each traversing length thereof, that can be secured together at desired location on first threaded rod. Main coupler may include upper section having first approximately half of body thereof and corresponding threads and lower section having second approximately half of body (opposite first half) and corresponding threads. Angled coupling is made of high strength material (e.g., steel, cast iron, composites).
