ABSTRACT:
A kit for repairing a hole and providing a more substantial mounting for a support device, as in a panel of hollow construction such as room partitions, includes a thin sheet of material which is cut to form a plate slightly larger than the size of the hole after it has been cut for mounting. The panel has a center hole and two slots separated and horizontal to such hole and on either side of said center hole, two fairly rigid rounded wires with resilient legs with feet at adjacent ends, has its legs slightly spread apart and the feet inserted through the slots with the feet resting on the rear of the panel. An extruded washer with eight evenly spaced splits is mounted on the rear of the panel by means of three rivets aligning the washer hole evenly with the center hole of the panel. A shaft is then inserted into the center panel hole and through the aligned washer hole and then pushed inwardly. Fingers of opposing hands are inserted into the round wires with the feet properly engaged and then pulling outwardly the plate is firmly set against the inner panel wall of the damaged panel and with the thumb placed on the end of the shaft pressure is applied inwardly until the shaft is seated against a fixed portion of the hollow construction operatively securing and fixing the plate and shaft to the inner and outer walls of the hollow construction. The extruded split washer operatively secures and holds the shaft and any reverse pressure operatively further secures the shaft. The shaft is sized preventing extension into the area being repaired and the damaged area is filled with suitable repair material.
