  • Publication number: 20240390101
    Abstract: Systems for mounting medical equipment in a configurable manner are provided. In one example, a mounting system comprises a clamping portion configured to removably couple to a truss structure. The clamping portion has a first mounting support and a second mounting support. The first and second mounting supports are configured to couple to each other on opposite sides of a portion of the truss structure. The second mounting support has features complimentary to a shape of the truss structure to allow sliding engagement of the truss structure. The mounting system further comprises an engagement portion having at least one opening. The one opening is configured to receive one or more fasteners to couple to an equipment mount, and the engagement portion extends from the first mounting support of the clamping portion.
