  • Patent number: 11680678
    Abstract: A non-invasive roof mounting adapter plate and method for installing same. In one embodiment, a mounting adapter for attaching an object to a generally flat surface includes an anchor plate having an upper surface and a lower surface, and one or more first apertures extending through the upper and lower surfaces, each first aperture including a counter-bore configured to receive a corresponding first elongated fasteners, each elongated fastener having a length sufficient to extend through and securely fasten the anchor plate to a support structure below the generally flat surface; and a second fastener extending normal from the upper surface of the anchor plate and configured to secure the object to the mounting adapter, wherein load forces from the object are directly transferred from the anchor plate to a support structure below the generally flat surface via the first elongated fasteners.

  • Patent number: 9103112
    Abstract: A mounting adapter for attaching an object to a mounting surface such as a flat roof includes a planar anchor plate having first apertures and second apertures extending therethrough. The first apertures receive an elongated fastener having a length sufficient to fasten the anchor plate over and to a support structure positioned beneath the mounting surface. A cover plate includes third apertures aligned with the second apertures and at least one fourth aperture. The cover plate extends over the first apertures and a second fastener extends through each third aperture and engages with a corresponding second aperture to secure the cover plate over the anchor plate. At least one third fastener interfaces with the at least one fourth aperture for attaching the object to the adapter such that load forces from the object are transferred directly to the support structure beneath the mounting surface through each elongated fastener.

  • Patent number: 8733718
    Abstract: A mounting adapter for attaching an object to a flat surface includes an anchor plate having a plurality of first apertures extending therethrough. Each first aperture is configured to receive a first elongated fastener having a length sufficient to fasten to a support structure located beneath the surface for attaching the anchor plate thereto. A plurality of threaded apertures is formed in the anchor plate. A cover plate is positioned over the anchor plate and has a plurality of third apertures that align with the plurality of threaded apertures in the anchor plate. A threaded fastener extends through each third aperture and is threadedly engaged with the second threaded apertures of the anchor plate for securely attaching the cover plate to the anchor plate. One or more fourth apertures are formed in the cover plate and configured to receive a third fastener for attaching the object to the mounting adapter.
