They should have used the wavy washer method which not likely a patent issue as many tape machines used the same principal to apply spring like pressure.
I have not seen the nikon ultimate mount.

Looks exactly as you described. Frankly, I was surprised as it does not appear very robust and certainly not what I was expecting for the outlay. Ho-hum.
