  • Patent number: 7527437
    Abstract: A sensing device mounting mechanism, and related method of operating such a mechanism, are disclosed. In at least some embodiments, the mechanism can include a housing that is mountable to a support structure. The housing can define an interior for receiving and supporting a sensing device. The mechanism further includes light pipe device coupled to the housing. The light pipe device can be used to communicate light from a light source to the sensing device, or from the sensing device to a location exterior of the housing such that it can be viewed, detected or received by an operator or other device. Advantageously, the sensing device mounting mechanism is constructed so as to enhance and facilitate, as opposed to interfere with, proper performance of the sensing device.
