A dual-purpose mounting structure and enclosure for a surface mounted surveillance camera system used alternatively to mount a camera system including back box directly onto a surface, or to mount the camera system such that the back box is recessed behind the surface. The enclosure and mount includes a back box having flush flange assembly and a detachable surface mountable adaptor. For a surface mount, the adaptor is attached directly to the flush flange for mounting the enclosure onto a planar surface such as below a ceiling line. For a recessed mount, an opening is provided in the planar surface, the adaptor is inverted and placed around this opening on the opposite side of the planar surface, the back box is inserted through the opening and into the adaptor, and the adaptor is attached to the back box assembly.
A structure for mounting a surveillance camera on a surface comprising a back box having an opening therein, a flange attached to said back box adjacent to said opening, and an adaptor for attachment to said flange wherein said adaptor is adapted selectively to be mounted on said surface, and alternatively to be mounted behind said surface.
A structure for mounting a surveillance camera on a front surface of a panel having front and back surfaces comprising a back box having an opening at one end, a flange having a central aperture therein attached to said back box adjacent to said opening, and an adaptor for attachment to said flange wherein said adaptor is adapted selectively to be mounted to the front surface of said panel, and alternatively to be mounted on the back surface of said panel.
A camera support assembly comprising a back box having an opening therein, a peripheral flange attached to said back box adjacent to said opening, and an adaptor attachable to said flange for alternatively mounting said camera support assembly on a surface in accordance with two separate and distinct modes of operation, a first mode of operation comprising mounting said adaptor on said surface between said flange and said surface, and a second mode of operation comprising providing an orifice in said surface for receiving said back box and mounting said adaptor behind said surface adjacent to said orifice.
A method of mounting a surveillance camera on a surface comprising the steps of:
