Abstract
A mounting device includes a base that is rectangularly elongated. The base includes an open bottom that extends lengthwise along a direction of elongation of the base. A pair of guides is disposed on opposite sides of the base, extending lengthwise along the direction of the elongation of the base. The pair of guides are for guiding support hardware in linear movement along the direction of the elongation of the base. An internal cavity is within the base for containing a sealant against a roof when the mounting device is secured to the roof. An opening extends through the base for receiving a fastener to secure the mounting device to the roof. The opening is in communication with the internal cavity.
Claims21
A mounting device comprising:
- a base that is elongated, the base including an open bottom that extends lengthwise along a direction of elongation of the base;
- a pair of guides disposed on opposite lateral sides of the base, the guides including a groove respectively formed into the respective lateral sides of the base and extending lengthwise along the direction of the elongation of the base, the pair of guides for guiding support hardware in linear movement along the direction of the elongation of the base;
- an internal cavity within the base for containing a sealant against a roof when the mounting device is secured to the roof;
- and
- an opening through the base for receiving a fastener to secure the mounting device to the roof, the opening in communication with the internal cavity.
A mounting device comprising:
- a base that is elongated, the base including a top, an opposed bottom that extends lengthwise along a direction of elongation of the base;
- a pair of guides disposed on opposite lateral sides of the base, the guides including a groove respectively formed into the respective lateral sides of the base and extending lengthwise along the direction of the elongation of the base, the pair of guides for holding and guiding support hardware in linear movement along the direction of the elongation of the base;
- an internal cavity defined within the base, the internal cavity being open to the bottom of the base;
- an opening formed through the base for receiving a fastener, the opening joined in communication with the internal cavity such that the fastener, when applied to the opening, extends through the opening and the internal cavity;
- and
- a seal formed around a periphery of the internal cavity at the bottom of the base.
