What do These Fit?

Wanting to get an answer about what these go on for my wife's friend. I'm in the crosshairs here. I'm supposed to be "all knowing".
Yep, some kind of collector. Yep, some kinda manifold.
Nope, I don't know exactly what they go on.
Do you?

If they end up in your hands Homer, I give it a week before you turn them into dual band, VHF/UHF antennas. With those diameters and "capacitance hats", they should have some good bandwidth too.

This was 1960’s Dallas.

I don’t see much variation in time going back sixty years from there.

I went to grade school in Chicago starting K in 1975 (no desks). In 1st grade we had desks with the type of bases the OP shows, but they were removed for 2nd grade (77-78) and all of the classrooms had the oval patterns in rows where the old desks were bolted to the floor.
I tried to search for them and came up dry, but I'm quite sure that that's what they are.
