Abstract

A universal fan blade mounting assembly including an elongated bar having flanges at each end. One of the flanges is shaped to cooperate with one end of a fan blade and the other flange is constructed for attachment to a ceiling fan rotor. The rotor connecting flange includes two holes therein one of the holes is round for encircling a fastening screw. The other hole forms an arcuate slot. The hole and slot cooperate such that the elongated bar extends outwardly from the center of the rotor such that the functional relationship between the fan blade and the rotor may be maintained.
