Abstract
A fitting for mounting an object, e.g. a loudspeaker, on a wall comprises two substantially identical saddle strip elements that are laid together in intercrossing positions, top against top, and mutually fixed by means of a clamping bolt through longitudinally extending slots in both elements. The outer strip element, carrying the object to be mounted, may be adjusted in being displaced both in its directions and in the direction of the other element, whereby the object can be mounted with a variety of "directions of irradiation" from the wall and be fixed in a very easy and very stable manner.
Claims10
A fitting for directionally and adjustably mounting an object on a carrier surface comprising:
- first and second rigid fitting parts, each rigid fitting part being shaped with a plate strip portion having a first side and a second side opposite to said first side, the plate strip portion being oblong so as to have a length dimension and a width dimension, the strip portion extending in a longitudinal direction so as to be convexly curved at the first side and correspondingly concavely curved at the second side, and extending in a width direction so as to be concavely curved at the first side and correspondingly convexly curved at the second side, said plate strip portion thus forming a geometrical saddle element;
- the oblong plate strip portions having at both ends thereof a mounting portion for attachment of the first and second rigid fitting parts to the carrier surface and the object to be mounted, respectively, with the oblong plate strip portions bulging outwardly therefrom;
- and
- a clamp for clamping the two oblong plate strip portions together into orthogonal intercrossing positions thereof at selected respective subareas along the longitudinal direction thereof, such that in the subareas the intercrossing positions curving in the width direction of each of the oblong plate strip portions will substantially mate with the curving in longitudinal direction of another oblong plate strip portion to thereby produce a clamping by which a relative rotation and displacement of the oblong plate strip portions is prevented.
