Track system for adjustably mounting objects to a structure

Abstract

A track system for adjustably mounting objects to a structure, such as a wall having an uneven surface, includes a track, and a plurality of longitudinally spaced connectors. Each connector consists of an adjuster and a fastener. The adjuster preferably includes a threaded sleeve, and a foot having a flat bottom surface for bearing against the surface of the structure. Each threaded sleeve is dimensioned to fit within a corresponding threaded aperture in the back wall of the track. The adjuster preferably includes a pivoting foot which provides full wall surface contact notwithstanding local surface irregularities. The track may include a back wall assembly and a cover. The back wall assembly preferably includes a plurality of sliding wall sections which are tied to a footer and a header by means of a tie-bar. The cover preferably includes a magnetic metal plate which contacts a magnet located on the tie-bar, when the cover is fitted over the back wall assembly. The track system may also include a carriage shaped for engaging and sliding along the track, having a mounting device for mounting an object thereto.
