ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an attachment system for a suction cup and a fixture, including a resilient suction cup and a wire fixture. This attachment means quickly and securely attaches the suction cup to the fixture, enabling the fixture, when secured to a smooth surface by the suction cups, to hold heavy objects.A preferred embodiment of the invention includes a pair of parallel, horizontal rigid wires separated by a distance smaller than the head of a resilient suction cup but larger than the neck of the cup. The head of the cup is compressed to fit it between the pair of wires, which hold the neck and the entire suction cup in place. A pair of transverse wires intersecting the horizontal wires limit the horizontal movement of the cup.
