Improved mount bracket

摘要

The invention provides a foldable mounting bracket including an elongate mountable support member adapted for mounting to a substrate, an elongate arm mount pivoted to said mounting bracket and adapted to pivot between a first raised position generally perpendicular to said support member and a second lowered position generally parallel to said support member and a strut bridging said support member and said arm mount wherein a first end of said strut is mounted at a fixed position along the length of said arm and the second end is mounted to a support slide telescopically engaged with said support member such that the pivoting of said arm between said lowered position to said raised position causes said support slide to move telescopically between a position remote from said pivot point to a position adjacent said pivot point wherein said arm includes a latch adapted for telescopic movement along the length of said arm between a first retracted position retaining the latch within the arm and a second extended position projecting said latch from said arm and engaging said support slide to lock same against telescopic movement away from said pivot point thereby locking said arm in said first raised position.
