Bracket for antenna attachment

摘要

An antenna bracket that enables relatively easy alignment of an antenna on a support structure such as a utility pole or tower. The bracket provides for low profile antenna attachment. The bracket includes a first bracket member that is joined to the support structure, a second bracket member that is coupled to the antenna, and a bracket interface member that is coupled to the first bracket member. An alignment device formed with a coupling body and a curved member extending from the coupling body is retained between the bracket interface member and the first bracket member and is secured to the second bracket member. The curved member enables fine movement of the antenna in any selectable direction to ensure its alignment with respect to the support structure.

主权项

1. A bracket for aligning and securing an antenna on a support structure, the bracket comprising:
a. a first bracket member arranged for securing to the support structure, wherein the first bracket member includes a first leg and a second leg, wherein the second leg includes an alignment device seat; b. a second bracket member arranged for securing to the antenna, wherein the second bracket member includes an alignment device port; c. a bracket interface member arranged for securing to the first bracket member and the second bracket member, wherein the bracket interface member includes an alignment device port; and d. an alignment device arranged for securing to the second bracket member, the alignment device including a curved member retained by the bracket interface member and configured to enable fine movement of the second bracket member with respect to the first bracket member so that the antenna may be positioned for desired alignment, wherein the first leg of the first bracket member secures the first bracket member to the support structure and the second leg of the first bracket member secures the first bracket member to the bracket interface member, wherein the alignment device is secured to the second bracket member at the alignment device port of the second bracket member, and wherein the alignment device seat of the first bracket member receives a first portion of the alignment device and the alignment device port of the bracket interface member receives a second portion of the alignment device so that the curved member of the alignment device is captured between the first bracket member and the bracket interface member.
