Abstract
Mounts (10) for securing a device (12) to an article (14) comprise a housing (16) having an internal volume (18) configured to selectively receive and retain the device (12) in the housing (16); and a coupler (20) attached to the housing (16) and configured to be operatively attached to the article (14).
Claims22
A mount (10) for securing a device (12) to an article (14), the mount (10) comprising:
- a housing (16) having an internal volume (18) configured to selectively receive and retain the device (12) in the housing (16);
- and
- a coupler (20) attached to the housing (16) and configured to be operatively attached to the article (14), wherein the coupler (20) defines a coupler aperture (28), and wherein the housing (16) extends into the coupler aperture (28).
A mount (10) for securing a device (12) to an article (14), the mount (10) comprising:
- a housing (16) having an internal volume (18) configured to selectively receive and retain the device (12) in the housing (16), wherein the housing (16) comprises:
- a base (24), wherein the base (24) defines an opening (44);
- and
- a cover (26) removably coupled to the base (24) to permit placement and removal of the device (12) in and from the internal volume (18), wherein the cover (26) is threadingly coupled to the base (24), wherein the cover (26) extends through the opening (44) when the cover (26) is operatively coupled to the base (24), wherein the cover (26) has a convex upper surface (36), wherein the cover (26) defines a pair of spaced-apart cover cavities (56) extending into the convex upper surface (36), wherein the pair of spaced-apart cover cavities (56) are evenly spaced from a central axis (50) of the mount (10);
- a coupler (20) attached to the base (24) of the housing (16) and configured to be operatively attached to the article (14);
- and
- a hand tool (58), wherein the hand tool (58) comprises a pair of spaced-apart protrusions (60) that are sized and shaped to mate with the pair of spaced-apart cover cavities (56) of the cover (26), wherein the hand tool (58) has a concave cover engagement surface (62) that is configured to engage and mate with the convex upper surface (36) of the cover (26) when the pair of spaced-apart protrusions (60) mate with the pair of spaced-apart cover cavities (56).
