Mast mounting system

A mast mount system for mounting accessories on an elevated pole or mast for field communications, surveillance, lightning protection, weather station and the like comprising a pole mount assembly including a mounting collar comprising a pair of hingedly coupled pole mounting clamp members configured to engage and secure the mounting collar to the periphery of the elevated pole or mast and an accessory mount assembly coupled to said pole mount assembly by an intermediate coupler, said assembly mount assembly comprises an elongated accessory attachment arm having a proximal end portion and a distal end portion pivotally mounted to said intermediate coupler at the proximal end thereof by a proximal bracket mount and a distal bracket mount pivotally mounted to the distal end thereof to support the accessory thereon such that the accessory is positioned relative to the elevated pole or mast by said elongated accessory attachment arm at either or both the proximal and distal end portions thereof without the use of a tool, said pole mount assembly comprises a mounting collar including a pair of pole mounting clamp members each including an inner concave pole or mast engagement surface hingedly coupled together by a hinge member extending through at least one hinge sleeve formed on corresponding end portions of each said pole mounting clamp member to engage and secure said mounting collar of said pole mount assembly to the periphery of the elevated pole or mast, said proximal bracket mount comprises a pair of substantially parallel side members held in spaced relationship relative to each other by at least one spacer held in place by a fastener at each end thereof in cooperation with a laterally adjustable fastening member including an adjustment knob formed on one end portion thereof and held in place by a fastener wherein said proximal end portion of said elongated member is pivotally mounted between said substantially parallel side members by a bar mounting member, said distal bracket mount comprises a pair of substantially parallel side members affixed to an accessory mounted plate having a plurality of accessory mounting apertures to mount an accessory thereon with fasteners extending through said aperture pattern corresponding to at least two of said mounting apertures, said distal end portion of said elongated member is pivotally mounted between said substantially parallel side members by a bar mounting member, said intermediate coupler comprises a first coupler formed on at least one of the pair of pole mounting members of said pole mount assembly and a second coupler formed on said proximal bracket mount of said accessory mount assembly configured to operatively engage each other to mount said accessory mount assembly to the pole mount assembly.
