Baffle assembly for pole
View Patent ↗A baffle assembly for a pole includes a clamping structure adapted to be positioned about a pole. The clamping structure includes a plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks removably joined along the longitudinal axis. The plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks extends from a proximal end to a distal end defining a length of the clamping structure. A mounting strap includes a first end attached to the proximal end of the plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks. The mounting strap extends to a second end and includes a fastener formed thereon. Bell housing includes opposing open ends. The bell housing is positioned about the pole and about the clamping structure wherein the bell housing is supported by the mounting hooks. The length of the clamping structure is adjusted by removal of selected mounting hooks of the plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks from the distal end.

5. The baffle assembly of claim 1 wherein the plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks is formed of rubber material.
6. The baffle assembly of claim 1 wherein the fastener is a hook and loop fastener.
7. The baffle assembly of claim 1 wherein the bell housing includes a two-piece housing.
8. The baffle assembly of claim 3 wherein the open end of the bell housing proximate the clamping structure has an opening size less than a length of the hooked body.
9. The baffle assembly of claim 1 wherein the bell housing includes separated inner and outer surfaces, the outer surface including a groove formed therein about a circumference of the housing.
10. The baffle assembly of claim 8 including a slot formed in the groove and including a snap ring disposed in the groove, the snap ring including a first attachment end engaging one end of the slot and a second attachment end engaging an opposing end of the slot.
11. The baffle assembly of claim 1 further including a metal ring attached to the end of the bell housing that is spaced from the hooked body of the clamping structure.
12. A baffle assembly for a pole comprising:
a clamping structure adapted to be positioned about a pole, the clamping structure including a plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks, the mounting hooks including a web material formed along the longitudinal axis between adjacent mounting hooks of the plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks removably joining the adjacent mounting hooks along the longitudinal axis, the plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks extending from a proximal end to a distal end defining a length of the clamping structure;
a mounting strap including a first end attached to the proximal end of the plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks, the mounting strap extending to a second end including a fastener formed thereon;
a bell housing including opposing open ends, the bell housing positioned about the pole and about the clamping structure wherein the bell housing is supported by the mounting hooks;
wherein the length of the clamping structure is adjusted by removal of selected mounting hooks of the plurality of laterally spaced mounting hooks from the distal end.
