ABSTRACT:
A mounting socket and method for removably attaching a platform supporting davit to a rooftop. The mounting socket includes a folding handle and wheels permitting easy transportation from a storage location to a position near a compatible building supported mounting pedestal. A pair of fixed hooks formed by the socket engage a pair of holes formed by the platform. The socket includes a hollow cavity adapted to receive the davit. As the socket is rotated into vertical position, a locking clamp having movable hooks engages the platform and a secondary locking lever acts to ensure that the locking clamp remains in a locked position on the pedestal. A davit locking pawl prevents inadvertent removal of the davit from the socket when the socket is in the vertical position.
