Abstract
A roof-mounting device for covering a roof penetration in a roof includes a base having an open top, an open bottom, and an outer perimeter structure. An internal reservoir of the device is in communication with the open top and the open bottom, and a mount plate is disposed in the internal reservoir extending between opposed ends of the outer perimeter structure. A bore is formed in the mount plate below the top of the base, the bore for receiving a fastener for fastening the mounting device at the roof penetration. When the bore receives the fastener therein, the internal reservoir is unsevered, remaining in communication with the open top and open bottom of the base.
Claims19
A roof-mounting device for covering a roof penetration in a roof, the roof-mounting device comprising:
- a base including an open top, an open bottom, and an outer perimeter structure, wherein the open top has an upper surface and an opposed lower surface;
- an internal reservoir in communication with the open top and the open bottom;
- a mount plate disposed in the internal reservoir extending between opposed ends of the outer perimeter structure, wherein the mount plate includes an upper surface and the upper surface of the mount plate is below the lower surface of the open top of the base;
- and
- a bore formed in the mount plate below the open top of the base, the bore for receiving a fastener for fastening the mounting device at the roof penetration;
- wherein, when the bore receives the fastener therein, the internal reservoir is unsevered, remaining in communication with the open top and open bottom of the base.
A roof-mounting device for covering a roof penetration in a roof, the roof-mounting device comprising:
- a base including an open top, an open bottom, and an outer perimeter structure, wherein the open top has an upper surface and an opposed lower surface;
- an internal reservoir in communication with the open top and the open bottom;
- and
- a mount plate disposed in the internal reservoir and extending between opposed first and second ends of the outer perimeter structure, wherein the mount plate includes an upper surface and the upper surface of the mount plate is below the lower surface of the open top of the base;
- wherein, when a fastener is received through the mount plate, the mount plate leaves the internal reservoir accessible from both the open bottom and the open top.
A roof-mounting device for covering a roof penetration in a roof, the roof-mounting device comprising:
- a base including a hub, an open top, an open bottom, and an outer perimeter structure, the open top having an upper surface and an opposed lower surface;
- an internal reservoir in communication with the open top and the open bottom;
- and
- at least one mount plate disposed in the internal reservoir and extending between opposed first and second ends of the outer perimeter structure, wherein the at least one mount plate has an upper surface and the upper surface of the at least one mount plate is below the lower surface of the open top of the base.
