Abstract

A mounting device includes a first arm, a second arm positioned parallel to the first arm, and a top plate coupled to the first arm and the second arm. The top plate includes a center portion, a first coupling panel formed at a 90 degree angle with respect to a surface of the center portion, and a second coupling panel formed at a 90 degree angle with respect to a surface of the center portion. The second coupling panel is located at a side of the center portion opposite the first coupling panel.

Claims (51)

1. A mounting device comprising:

a first arm;

a second arm positioned parallel to the first arm; and

a top plate coupled to the first arm and the second arm, the top plate including:

a center portion;

a first coupling panel formed at a 90 degree angle with respect to a surface of the center portion; and

a second coupling panel formed at a 90 degree angle with respect to the surface of the center portion, the second coupling panel being located at a side of the center portion opposite the first coupling panel;

at least one base plate coupled to at least an end of the first arm or the second arm,

wherein the at least one base plate includes:

a substrate including a number of apertures to receive a number of respective structure fasteners to couple the mounting device to a structure via the number of fasteners.

2. The mounting device of claim 1 , wherein:

the first coupling panel couples to the first arm, and

the second coupling panel couples to the second arm.

3. The mounting device of claim 2 , wherein the top plate securing the first arm to the second arm via the first coupling panel and the second coupling panel.

4. The mounting device of claim 1 , further comprising a tether fastener extending through a first aperture defined in the top plate.

5. The mounting device of claim 4 , further comprising an anchor coupled to the tether fastener.

6. The mounting device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a first return extending from the top plate between the first coupling panel and the second coupling panel on a second side of the top plate; and

a second return extending from the top plate between the first coupling panel and the second coupling panel on a third side of the top plate.

7. The mounting device of claim 1 , further comprising a coupling device configured selectively to attach the substrate to, and detach the substrate from, the at least an end of the first arm or the second arm.

8. A mounting device comprising:

a first arm;

a second arm positioned parallel to the first arm; and

a top plate coupled to the first arm and the second arm, the top plate including:

a center portion;

a first coupling panel formed at a 90 degree angle with respect to a surface of the center portion; and

a second coupling panel formed at a 90 degree angle with respect to the surface of the center portion, the second coupling panel being located at a side of the center portion opposite the first coupling panel,

a first base plate is coupled to a first end of the first arm,

a second based plate is coupled to a second end of the first arm,

a third based plate is coupled to the first end of the second arm, and

a fourth based plate is coupled to the second end of the second arm.

9. A mounting device comprising:

a first arm;

a second arm positioned parallel to the first arm; and

a top plate coupled to the first arm and the second arm, the top plate including:

a center portion;

a first coupling panel formed at a 90 degree angle with respect to a surface of the center portion; and

a second coupling panel formed at a 90 degree angle with respect to the surface of the center portion, the second coupling panel being located at a side of the center portion opposite the first coupling panel,

at least one base plate coupled to at least an end of the first arm or the second arm,

wherein the at least one base plate includes:

a substrate to couple the mounting device to a structure via a number of structure fasteners;

a first seal coupled to a top surface of the substrate; and

a second seal coupled to a bottom surface of the substrate

wherein the first seal seals the number of structure fasteners and the surface of the structure.

10. The mounting device of claim 9 , wherein:

the first seal and the second seal are made of a polymer, and

the first seal and the second seal are sealed from an environment.

11. The mounting device of claim 9 , further comprising a coupling device extending at a 90 degree angle relative to a surface of the structure;

the first seal including a first aperture through which the coupling device extends;

the second seal including a second aperture defined in the second seal through which the coupling device extends, and

wherein the second seal seals the coupling device.
