Abstract:
A directionally adjustable mounting device is disclosed for use with a small electronic device such as a wireless camera. Also disclosed is a method of using the mounting device. The mounting device has a housing for receiving the camera extending from and rotatable about bearing. A socket of the housing is biased into frictional contact with the bearing by a spring to inhibit movement of the camera relative to the bearing. The mount is configured to receive an opposing force on the housing to overcome the spring force and allow the camera to be repositioned.

Claim (Index 1):
A directionally adjustable mounting device for an electronic device, comprising:\n a housing having a socket and an aperture; a bearing at least partially received within the housing; a mounting portion of the housing extending forwardly from the bearing and supporting an electronic device; a spring disposed within the housing and configured to impose a biasing force on the housing of sufficient magnitude to force the socket into frictional engagement with the bearing with sufficient force to inhibit movement of the housing when the electronic device is received at the mounting portion; and disposed between the bearing and the spring and being movable relative to the housing axially of the spring; and wherein the socket is moveable with the housing rearwardly out of contact with the bearing to permit angular repositioning of the housing relative to the bearing upon imposition of an opposing force on the housing that is opposite the biasing force imposed on the housing by the spring and that is of sufficient magnitude to overcome the biasing force imposed by the spring.
