  • Antenna support for power transmission tower
    Patent number: 6026627
    Abstract: An electrical powered transmission tower is modified to also support a telecommunications antenna. The tower has a plurality of legs interconnected by lattice braces. A support column is erected within the enclosure of the tower. The support column has a base anchored in the ground on a concrete foundation. The column extends upward through the tower and protrudes through the top. The antenna is mounted to the upper end of the column. Fasteners secure the column to the tower for lateral support.

  • Tree styled monopole tower
    Patent number: 5787649
    Abstract: A modified monopole tower is described, consisting primarily of a galvanized steel truncated pyramidal monopole capped by wireless electronic communications antennae and equipment. In the preferred embodiment, the simulated trunk containing the monopole exhibits protruding receptors which in turn support artificial palm fronds, and artificial pine boughs and branches. The artificial palm fronds, branches, and boughs are attached to the receptors primarily by mechanical and adhesive means. The modified monopole tower is designed to function optimally under all weather conditions, while imitating the landscape with attachment of indigenous tree components.
