ABSTRACT

An anchor platform assembly for anchoring an object to a structure includes an
anchor baseplate having a generally planar first surface and second surface,
an elongated post coupled to the baseplate and projecting outwardly from the
first surface thereof. The post has a first end secured to the anchor
baseplate, a second free end, and an at least partially threaded, cylindrical
blind bore extending from the first surface of the anchor baseplate into the
post, with the second surface of the anchor baseplate being configured to
allow the structure to lie generally flush against the second surface except
for the area of the second surface covered by the post. A cylindrical
mechanical fastener having a straight thread is used for fastening an object
to the anchor baseplate via the blind bore. A dual post anchor assembly is
also disclosed.
