Abstract

Abstract A mounting assembly for securing a measuring device requiring a specific orientation to a variety of structures. The device includes a pair of adjustable, spaced mounting blocks, secured to a base plate, which are adapted to conform to a variety of supporting shapes. Serrations on the hardened steel mounting blocks provide secure placement when the assembly is clamped to the supporting structure. The combination of an angled bracket including appropriately placed arcuate slots provide even greater versatility in orienting the device.
