Patent ID: 7931244

Claim:
A machine for mounting of fixtures comprising: bracket rails; axles; mounting brackets; and fixture clamp assembly wherein the bracket rails comprise substantially planar upper surfaces, lower surfaces, and ends; wherein the axles attach to the bracket rails upper surfaces proximal said ends, substantially perpendicularly to said ends, fixing said bracket rails substantially parallel and in such a position as to form a bracket slot between the bracket rails upper and lower surfaces and; wherein said mounting brackets comprise substantially congruent configurations having planar surfaces, comprising portals through which the axles pass, such that said mounting brackets rotate about said axles and the said axles rotate in the mounting brackets, and such that said mounting brackets comprise substantially planar flanges extending substantially perpendicularly from said planar surfaces, said flanges having holes; and wherein said fixture clamp assembly comprises a substantially U-shaped fixture clamp having legs with threaded portions proximate to the ends of the said legs, and upper nuts having threads that communicate with said threaded portions, such that said nuts are attachable to and removable from the said threaded portions; and further comprising, a substantially planar fixture clamp plate having holes through which the legs pass, and a substantially planar fixture plate, extending essentially vertically from said planar fixture clamp plate, the said fixture plate comprising a fixture seat upon which a fixture may rest, the fixture clamp and the fixture plate being essentially co-planar when said fixture clamp legs are extended through said fixture clamp plate holes and through the bracket slot, wherein said fixture clamp plate rests upon said bracket rails upper surfaces, the fixture clamp legs having sufficient length that when the said fixture clamp plate rests upon said bracket rails upper surfaces, the said fixture clamp legs may be attached to the said bracket rails lower surfaces.
