Patent number: 11600898Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to mounts for antennas and radio equipment, and more particularly to mounts for antennas on and radio equipment on the top of a building or commercial structure. One aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a sector frame. The sector frame may have a plurality of structural members, including antenna pipes for the mounting of electronic equipment, and a face pipe along which the antenna pipes are disposed. In some embodiments, the antenna pipes and the face pipe may form an antenna pipe array which is rotatable about three perpendicular axes. Another aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a method for adapting a sector frame to a substrate. The method includes the step of attaching an extension to a base of the sector frame, wherein a portion of the base of the sector frame is in contact with the substrate, and wherein a portion of the extension is in contact with the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2020Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: CommScope Technologies LLCInventors: Dale Richard Heath, Robert Campbell, Firoz Ahmed, Jyoti Ojha
