Universal multi axis adjustable windshield light bar and mounting system
An adjustable mounting device is provided comprising a base mount assembly including a first base mount and a second base mount pivotally coupled to each other, with the first base mount and the second base mount each being configured to be attachable to the vehicle. A light mount is pivotally coupled to the base mount assembly and is configured to be attachable to the light bar for mounting the light bar on the vehicle.
1. An adjustable mounting device for mounting a light bar to a vehicle, the mounting device comprising:
a base mount assembly including a first base mount and a second base mount pivotally coupled to each other, the first base mount and the second base mount each being configured to be attachable to the vehicle;
a light mount pivotally coupled to the base mount assembly and configured to be attachable to the light bar for mounting the light bar on the vehicle;
wherein the first base mount and the second base mount include complimentary spherical surfaces which interface with each other; and
wherein the complimentary spherical surfaces of the first base mount and the second base mount are moveable relative to each other to effectuate movement between the first base mount and the second base mount along an arcuate path.
2. The mounting device recited in claim 1 , wherein the base mount assembly and the light mount have complimentary spherical surfaces which interface with each other.
3. The mounting device recited in claim 2 , wherein the complimentary spherical surfaces of the base mount assembly and the light mount are moveable relative to each other to effectuate arcuate movement between the base mount assembly and the light mount.
4. The mounting device recited in claim 3 , wherein the base mount assembly includes a plurality of grooves arranged in a starburst pattern and the light mount includes a pair of projections that interface with a corresponding pair of the plurality of grooves to limit movement of the light mount relative to the base mount assembly.
5. The mounting device recited in claim 1 , further comprising a pair of gaskets coupled to respective ones of the first base mount and the second base mount to create a fluid tight seal between the base mount assembly and the vehicle.
6. The mounting device recited in claim 1 , wherein the light mount includes a pair of mount openings adapted for connecting the light bar to the light mount.
7. The mounting device recited in claim 1 , wherein the light mount includes a single mount opening adapted for connecting the light bar to the light mount.
8. The mounting device recited in claim 1 , wherein the light mount includes an arcuate surface adapted for interfacing with the light bar.
9. The mounting device recited in claim 1 , wherein the light mount is pivotable relative to both the first base mount and the second base mount.
10. An adjustable mounting device for mounting a light bar to a vehicle, the mounting device comprising:
a vehicle mount assembly having a pair of vehicle mounts each being securable to the vehicle, the pair of vehicle mounts being moveably coupled to each other to enable adjustment of the pair of the vehicle mounts to conform to a contour of the vehicle; and
a light mount pivotally coupled to the vehicle mount assembly and adapted to be engageable with the light bar.
11. The mounting device recited in claim 10 , wherein the pair of vehicle mounts include complimentary spherical surfaces which interface with each other.
12. The mounting device recited in claim 11 , wherein the complimentary spherical surfaces of the pair of vehicle mounts are moveable relative to each other to effectuate movement therebetween along an arcuate path.
13. The mounting device recited in claim 10 , wherein the vehicle mount assembly and the light mount have complimentary spherical surfaces which interface with each other.
14. The mounting device recited in claim 13 , wherein the complimentary spherical surfaces of the vehicle mount assembly and the light mount are moveable relative to each other to effectuate arcuate movement between the vehicle mount assembly and the light mount.
15. The mounting device recited in claim 14 , wherein the vehicle mount assembly includes a plurality of grooves arranged in a starburst pattern and the light mount includes a pair of projections that interface with a corresponding pair of the plurality of grooves to limit movement of the light mount relative to the vehicle mount assembly.
16. The mounting device recited in claim 10 , wherein the light mount is pivotable relative to both of the pair of vehicle mounts.
