Patent ID: 7926776

Claim:
A bracket for use with an ultrasound transducer to releasably mount at least one sensor of a location sensing system on the transducer, said at least one sensor having a body including an opposed pair of wall portions, said bracket comprising a member arranged to be releasably mounted on the transducer and including at least one socket therein, said at least one socket having a pair of spaced-apart wall portions, said at least one socket and said at least one sensor being arranged to be coupled together via cooperating pins and slots to enable said at least one sensor to be oriented in a first position for insertion between said spaced-apart walls of said at least one socket to introduce said pins into respective ones of said slots so that said at least one sensor may be rotated to a second position within said at least one socket, whereupon said wall portions releasably engage a portion of said at least one sensor to deter accidental displacement of said at least one sensor with respect to the transducer.
