Abstract:
1. A device mounting platform apparatus, comprising: a frame member formed with a device mounting surface between spaced apart first and second edges, the frame member being structured for being mounted in a vehicle with the device mounting surface having a generally upwardly orientation; a clamp member slidably interconnected to the frame member for motion relative to the second edge of the frame member along a first direction oriented substantially crosswise of the spaced apart first and second edges thereof; and a reconfigurable biasing mechanism coupled between the frame and clamp members, the biasing mechanism being reconfigurable between a first configuration for urging a jaw portion of the clamp member away from the second edge of the frame member along a first heading substantially aligned with the first direction, and a second configuration for urging the jaw portion of the clamp member toward the second edge of the frame member along a second heading substantially aligned with the first direction.
