Mounting device for medical equipment

Abstract

A medical equipment mounting device, for example a patch unit holder, is provided for holding medical equipment on a fixed structure. The mounting device includes a housing, a knob, and a locking ledge. The housing has an opening to receive and mount to a fixed structure. The knob has a ramp for defining a height of the locking ledge and functions as a push-button to cause the locking ledge to engage or release the fixed structure. The ramp of the knob is shaped to provide multiple discrete heights for the locking ledge. This configuration allows for the mounting device to be universal in mounting to various fixed structures, particularly various bedrail sizes.
