View Patent ↗A mounting system for attaching components, or accessories, to surfaces without compromising, but instead maintaining, the integrity of the mounting surface. The mounting system is easily movable, can withstand or support heavy loads, does not require permanent alteration of the mounting surface by drilling holes or tapping screws and does not require hardware to be affixed to the surface.
1. A mounting system, comprising: a vacuum device including a vacuum pad and a vacuum pump through which a vacuum may be developed between the vacuum pad and the mounting surface, the vacuum pad including a top face with one or more connection elements and a side face with a release tab to assist in releasing the vacuum between the vacuum pad and the mounting surface, the vacuum pump including a plunger with an indicator, wherein the indicator conveys the securement level of the vacuum between the vacuum pad and the mounting surface, a housing centrally located on the vacuum pad and enclosing a majority of the vacuum pump, the housing including a top side, a bottom side, a first side, a second side, a third side, and a pump side, wherein the top side includes one or more attachment elements, a fillet table attached to the one or more attachment elements, the housing integrated with the vacuum pad, wherein one or more housing apertures of the housing is connected to each of the one or more connection elements of the vacuum pad.
2. The mounting system according to claim 1 , wherein the fillet table is positioned perpendicular to the top side of the housing.
3. The mounting system according to claim 1 , wherein the housing is square-shaped.
4. The mounting system according to claim 1 , further comprising a brace.
5. The mounting system according to claim 4 , wherein the brace is L-shaped comprising a vertical structure and a horizontal structure.
6. The mounting system according to claim 5 , wherein the fillet table is connected to the horizontal structure of the L-shaped brace.
