Abstract
A mounting assembly comprising: a bracket; a mounting part; and a height adjustment mechanism to vary the position of the mounting part with respect to the bracket in the vertical direction. The height adjustment mechanism comprises: a set of interlocking elements; an arm connected to the bracket and having a protrusion that is moveable in a depth direction with respect to the bracket between a retracted position and a locking position in which the free end interlocks with an interlocking element; and at least one set screw extending along the vertical direction. Rotating the set screw moves the set screw in the vertical direction and pushes the protrusion from its retracted position to its locking position.
Claims15
A mounting assembly comprising:
- a bracket configured to be fixedly connected to a support;
- a mounting part extending along a vertical direction and having a width direction and a depth direction that are substantially perpendicular to one another and to the vertical direction, the mounting part having a front side and a rear side which are opposite one another along the depth direction, the mounting part being configured to be mounted with its rear side facing the bracket;
- and
- a height adjustment mechanism configured to vary the position of the mounting part with respect to the bracket in the vertical direction,
- wherein the height adjustment mechanism comprises:
- a set of first interlocking elements provided on the rear side of the mounting part;
- an arm connected to the bracket and having a protrusion that is moveable in the depth direction with respect to the bracket between a retracted position and a locking position in which the protrusion interlocks with an interlocking element from said set;
- a set screw extending along the vertical direction and having a first end and a second end, the set screw being rotatable in a locking direction and an unlocking direction, opposite to the locking direction, wherein the first end of the set screw is externally accessible when the bracket is mounted in a first upright position and the second end of the set screw is externally accessible when the bracket is mounted in a second upright position in which the bracket is upside down with respect to its first upright position;
- and
- a threaded portion engaging the set screw such that rotating the set screw causes a vertical movement of the set screw, wherein rotating the set screw in the locking direction pushes the protrusion from its retracted position to its locking position.
A mounting assembly comprising:
- a bracket configured to be fixedly connected to a support;
- a mounting part extending along a vertical direction and having a width direction and a depth direction that are substantially perpendicular to one another and to the vertical direction, the mounting part having a front side and a rear side which are opposite one another along the depth direction, the mounting part being configured to be mounted with its rear side facing the bracket;
- and
- a height adjustment mechanism configured to vary the position of the mounting part with respect to the bracket in the vertical direction,
- wherein the height adjustment mechanism comprises:
- a set of first interlocking elements provided on the rear side of the mounting part;
- an arm connected to the bracket and having a protrusion that is moveable in the depth direction with respect to the bracket between a retracted position and a locking position in which the protrusion interlocks with an interlocking element from said set;
- a first set screw and a second set screw, each set screw extending along the vertical direction and being rotatable in a locking direction and an unlocking direction, opposite to the locking direction and comprising a first end and a second end, wherein the second ends of the set screws face one another and wherein the first end of the first set screw is externally accessible when the bracket is mounted in a first upright position and the first end of the second set screw is externally accessible when the bracket is mounted in a second upright position in which the bracket is upside down with respect to its first upright position;
- and
- a threaded portion engaging each set screw such that rotating said set screw causes a vertical movement thereof, wherein rotating a set screw in the locking direction pushes the protrusion from its retracted position to its locking position.
