ABSTRACT:
The mailbox support-mounting disclosed has a pivoting arm. If the mounting receives a blow, e.g. from a snow-plow blade or from a vandal, the arm swings aside. After swinging aside, the arm resets itself to a central equilibrium position. The restoring force to reset the arm is provided by gravity, in that the pivot axis is set at an angle, and slopes forwards towards the road. The pivot bearing is sturdy and well-located, yet the bearing is inexpensive and not prone to seizure.
