Patent ID: 7497412

Claim:
A mount for attaching a projection device to an overhead structure, the mount comprising: a device interface operably attachable to the projection device with a plurality of fasteners, the device interface comprising a first portion and a second portion coupled to the first portion and slidably disposed on the first portion, the first and second portions together defining a plurality of retaining structures, each retaining structure for receiving a separate one of the plurality of fasteners, the device interface further comprising a control, the second portion selectively slidably shiftable with the control relative to the first portion between a first latched position wherein each of the plurality of fasteners is received and retained in a separate one of the retaining structures and a second unlatched position wherein the plurality of fasteners are freely disengagable from the retaining structures of the first and second portions; and a device orientation adjustment structure operably coupled with the device interface and adapted to provide adjustment of pitch, roll, and yaw of the projection device, the device orientation adjustment structure including at least one upright extending from the device interface and a support structure interface extending from the at least one upright and having a first portion operably coupled with the upright, the support structure interface adapted to be fixedly coupled with the overhead structure, the upright and the support structure interface having cooperating guide structures defining a first axis of rotation, wherein the device interface is selectively shiftable about the first axis of rotation.
