Pivoting equipment mounting bracket
A system and assembly for mounting components of equipment is disclosed. The assembly includes a mount assembly configured to rotate between a first position and a second position. The mount assembly includes a first and second mount. Each mount has a plunger to allow rotation of the mount assembly, and an end for attachment to a component of equipment. The assembly further includes a first brace coupled to the first mount and a second brace coupled to the second mount. Each brace has a first end for attachment to a surface, a second end having an open hem to retain the respective mount, a plurality of pivot holes configured to receive the plunger, and a pivot point coupling the respective mount and the brace.
1. An assembly for mounting components of equipment, the assembly comprising:
a mount assembly rotatable between a first position and a second position, the mount assembly including a first and second mount, each mount having:
a plunger to allow rotation of the mount assembly between the first position and the second position; and
an end including multiple holes for attaching a component of equipment; and
a first brace coupled to the first mount and a second brace coupled to the second mount, each brace having:
a first end for attachment to a surface;
a second end having an open hem to retain the respective mount such that when the mount assembly is rotated to the second position, an edge of the respective mount contacts an inner radius of the open hem and the end of each mount that includes the multiple holes for attaching the component of equipment is substantially perpendicular to the first end of each brace;
a plurality of pivot holes to receive the plunger; and
a pivot point coupling the respective mount and the brace.
2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first brace and the second brace include a plurality of pivot holes to receive the plunger during rotation of the mount assembly.
3. The assembly of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of pivot holes allow rotation of the mount assembly such that the component of equipment rotates from substantially vertical to 45 degrees.
4. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mount assembly further includes a tray attached to the first mount and the second mount.
5. The assembly of claim 4 , wherein the tray is adjustable.
6. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first brace and the second brace are attachable to the surface a predefined distance apart.
7. The assembly of claim 6 , wherein the predefined distance is based on a dimension of the component of equipment.
8. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein each mount further includes:
a set of attachment holes extending through the mount;
a plunger support arm attached to the set of attachment holes to contain each respective brace; and
the plunger attached to the plunger support arm to couple the mount and the brace during rotation of the mount assembly.
9. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the pivot point includes a spring-loaded plunger.
10. A communication cabinet for components of equipment, the cabinet comprising:
a mount assembly rotatable between a first position and a second position, the mount assembly including a first and second mount, each mount having:
a plunger to allow rotation of the mount assembly between the first position and the second position; and
an end including multiple holes for attaching a component of equipment; and
a first brace coupled to the first mount and a second brace coupled to the second mount, each brace having:
a first end for attachment to the cabinet;
a second end having an open hem to retain the respective mount such that when the mount assembly is rotated to the second position, an edge of the respective mount contacts an inner radius of the open hem and the end of each mount that includes the multiple holes for attaching the component of equipment is substantially perpendicular to the first end of each brace;
a plurality of pivot holes to receive the plunger; and
a pivot point coupling the respective mount and the brace.
11. The cabinet of claim 10 , wherein the first brace and the second brace include a plurality of pivot holes to receive the plunger during rotation of the mount assembly.
12. The cabinet of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of pivot holes allow rotation of the mount assembly such that the component of equipment rotates from substantially vertical to 45 degrees.
13. The cabinet of claim 10 , wherein the mount assembly further includes a tray attached to the first mount and the second mount.
14. The cabinet of claim 13 , wherein the tray is adjustable.
15. The cabinet of claim 10 , wherein the first brace and the second brace are attachable to the surface a predefined distance apart.
16. The cabinet of claim 15 , wherein the predefined distance is based on a dimension of the component of equipment.
17. The cabinet of claim 10 , wherein each mount further includes:
a set of attachment holes extending through the mount;
a plunger support arm attached to the set of attachment holes to contain each respective brace; and
the plunger attached to the plunger support arm to couple the mount and the brace during rotation of the mount assembly.
18. The cabinet of claim 10 , wherein the pivot point includes a spring-loaded plunger.
