Mount for a compression control unit

1. A compression control unit for a compression device comprising:

a housing having a front and a back, a top and a bottom, and opposite sides;

a pump in the housing;

an outlet port for fluidly connecting fluid tubing to the pump to deliver pressurized fluid to the compression device;

a mount on the back of the housing for mounting the compression control unit on a bed unit, the mount including

a securing portion spaced from the back of the housing and lying in a plane generally opposing the back of the housing, the securing portion partially defining a channel for receiving a part of the bed unit to secure the compression control unit to the bed unit, and

spaced apart wing portions extending generally upward and laterally outward relative to the securing portion, the wing portions being configured so that the fluid tubing secured to the outlet can be wrapped around the wing portions when the compression control unit is mounted on the bed unit, wherein the wing portions are upper wing portions, and wherein the mount includes spaced apart lower wing portions extending downward and laterally outward from the securing portion, wherein the upper wing portions extend generally rearward away from the housing and out-of-plane of the securing portion.

2. A compression control unit as set forth in claim 1 wherein the lower wing portions are generally coplanar with the securing portion.

3. A compression control unit as set forth in claim 2 wherein the mount comprises a single, unitary wire shaped to define the securing portion and the upper and lower wing portions.

4. A compression control unit as set forth in claim 1 wherein the upper wing portions extend at an out-of-plane angle with respect to the plane of the securing portion, wherein the out-of-plane angle is within a range between about 10 degrees and about 40 degrees.

5. A compression control unit as set forth in claim 4 wherein the range of the out-of-plane angle is between about 15 degrees and about 25 degrees.

6. A compression control unit as set forth in claim 1 wherein the lower wing portions extend generally rearward away from the housing and out-of-plane of the securing portion.

7. A compression control unit as set forth in claim 1 wherein at least one of the upper wing portions defines an opening sized and shaped for receiving a free end portion of the fluid tubing.

8. A compression control unit as set forth in claim 1 wherein the mount is a wire frame.

9. A mount for a compression control unit for a compression device comprising a housing having a front, a back, a top and a bottom; a pump in the housing; and an outlet for fluidly connecting fluid tubing to the pump to deliver pressurized fluid to the compression device, the mount comprising:

a pair of spaced apart wing portions;

a standoff portion adapted to be secured to the back of the housing of the compression control unit for spacing the wing portions from the back of the housing when the mount is secured to the compression control unit;

a securing portion extending downward with respect to the standoff portion, the securing portion lying in a plane generally opposing the back of the housing when the mount is secured to the compression control unit to partially define a channel in which a part of the bed unit is received to secure the compression control unit to the bed unit,

wherein the wing portions are configured so that the fluid tubing secured to the outlet can be wrapped around the wing portions when the compression control unit is mounted on the bed unit,

wherein the wing portions are upper wing portions, and wherein the mount includes spaced apart lower wing portions extending downward and laterally outward from the securing portion,

wherein the upper wing portions extend out-of-plane of the securing portion.

10. A mount as set forth in claim 9 wherein the lower wing portions are generally coplanar with the securing portion.

11. A mount as set forth in claim 10 wherein the mount comprises a single, unitary wire shaped to define the securing portion and the upper and lower wing portions.

12. A mount as set forth in claim 9 wherein the lower wing portions extend out-of-plane of the securing portion.

13. A mount as set forth in claim 9 wherein at least one of the upper wing portions defines an opening sized and shaped for receiving a free end margin of the fluid tubing.

14. A mount as set forth in claim 9 wherein the mount is a wire frame.

15. A mount for a compression control unit for a compression device comprising a housing having a front, a back, a top and a bottom; a pump in the housing; and an outlet for fluidly connecting fluid tubing to the pump to deliver pressurized fluid to the compression device, the mount comprising:

a pair of spaced apart wing portions;

a standoff portion adapted to be secured to the back of the housing of the compression control unit for spacing the wing portions from the back of the housing when the mount is secured to the compression control unit;

a securing portion extending downward with respect to the standoff portion, the securing portion lying in a plane generally opposing the back of the housing when the mount is secured to the compression control unit to partially define a channel in which a part of the bed unit is received to secure the compression control unit to the bed unit,

wherein the wing portions are configured so that the fluid tubing secured to the outlet can be wrapped around the wing portions when the compression control unit is mounted on the bed unit,

wherein at least one of the wing portions defines an opening sized and shaped for receiving a free end margin of the fluid tubing.

16. A mount as set forth in claim 15 in combination with compression control unit, the compression control unit comprising:

a housing having a front and a back, a top and a bottom, and opposite sides;

a pump in the housing; and

an outlet port for fluidly connecting fluid tubing to the pump to deliver pressurized fluid to the compression device,

wherein the mount is on the back of the housing.

17. A compression control unit for a compression device comprising:

a housing having a front and a back, a top and a bottom, and opposite sides;

a pump in the housing;

an outlet port for fluidly connecting fluid tubing to the pump to deliver pressurized fluid to the compression device;

a mount on the back of the housing for mounting the compression control unit on a bed unit, the mount including

a securing portion spaced from the back of the housing and lying in a plane generally opposing the back of the housing, the securing portion partially defining a channel for receiving a part of the bed unit to secure the compression control unit to the bed unit, and

spaced apart wing portions extending generally upward and laterally outward relative to the securing portion, the wing portions being configured so that the fluid tubing secured to the outlet can be wrapped around the wing portions when the compression control unit is mounted on the bed unit, wherein the wing portions extend generally rearward away from the housing and out-of-plane of the securing portion, wherein the wing portions extend at an out-of-plane angle with respect to the plane of the securing portion, the out-of-plane angle being within a range between about 10 degrees and about 40 degrees.

18. A compression control unit as set forth in claim 17 wherein the range of the out-of-plane angle is between about 15 degrees and about 25 degrees.
