ABSTRACT:
An adjustable ceiling fan support assembly for use in recreational vehicles, motor homes, camper shells and the like to removably suspend a ceiling fan from opposing vertical supports. A spring-biased adjustable fan support is interposed between two vertical supports, such as the interior walls of a recreational vehicle or retractable awning frames, and the fan is suspended from the support. The support includes a pair of generally parallel, elongated support arms having a fixed component and a reciprocable component. The fixed component depends from diametrically opposed edges of a plate. The reciprocable component has an engaging end portion, slidably engaged with the fixed component, and a wall engaging end. Each support arm further has a coil spring operably disposed between the fixed component and the reciprocable component so as to cause a biasing force of the reciprocable component away from the fixed component, whereby each reciprocable member may be compressed and interposed between two vertical surfaces and released to engage an associated vertical surface to suspend the fan. The fan may be specially adapted for use with a 12V DC current supplied by most RVs, and have easily removable fan blades.
