Abstract:
1. A mount assembly for adjustably mounting a device on a structure, the mount assembly comprising: a base coupleable to the structure; a tilt plate coupleable to the device, the tilt plate pivotally connected to the base; and a position locking mechanism comprising: a linkage member extending between the base and the tilt plate, the linkage member connected to the tilt plate such that the linkage member moves relative the base as the tilt plate is pivoted about the base; and a locking cylinder coupled to the base and cooperating with the linkage member, the locking cylinder defining a hollow for receiving at least a portion of the linkage member, the locking cylinder being selectively adjustable between an unlocked state in which the linkage member is free to move within the locking cylinder thereby allowing the tilt plate to pivot about the base, and a locked state in which the linkage member is locked in position within the locking cylinder thereby preventing the tilt plate from pivoting about the base.
