Dual fixed angle security mount

摘要

A security apparatus includes a mount and a sensor body with a socket recessed into the sensor body at a first angle from a functionality plane. The mount includes a stem and a base adapted to be affixed to a wall. The stem extends from the base at a second angle from horizontal. The functionality plane is set at an angle from horizontal equal to the first angle plus the second angle if the stem is inserted into the socket with the first side of the stem in close proximity to the first wall of the socket, and the functionality plane of the sensor body is set at an angle from horizontal equal to the first angle minus the second angle if the stem is inserted into the socket with the first side of the stem in close proximity to the second wall of the socket.

1. A motion sensor comprising:
a motion sensor body comprising a socket and a detection pattern with a functionality plane bounding a top of the detection pattern, wherein the socket is recessed into a back side of the motion sensor body at a first angle from the functionality plane of the motion sensor body and the socket comprises a substantially flat top wall, a substantially flat bottom wall opposite from the top wall, and a rear-facing surface comprising a first magnetic material; a mount comprising a base and a stem, the base adapted to be affixed to a vertical wall in either a first orientation with a substantially flat first side of the stem facing up, or a second orientation with a substantially flat second side of the stem facing up, a proximal end of the stem attached to the base, and a distal end of the stem comprising a second magnetic material and formed to fit into the socket with the first and second sides in close proximity to the top and bottom walls of the socket, wherein the stem extends from the base at a second angle from horizontal and the first side is an opposite side of the stem from the second side; wherein, with the motion sensor body in an upright position and the stem of the mount inserted into the socket and held in place by magnetic attraction between the first magnetic material and the second magnetic material;
the functionality plane of the motion sensor body is set at an angle from horizontal equal to the first angle plus the second angle if the mount is affixed to the vertical wall in the first orientation; andthe functionality plane of the motion sensor body is set at an angle from horizontal equal to the first angle minus the second angle if the mount is affixed to the vertical wall in the second orientation.
