  • Publication number: 20230320512
    Abstract: A mountable bracket includes a first leg and a second leg configured to be coupled to a mounting surface, a first sub-leg coupled to the first leg, and a second sub-leg coupled to the second leg. The first leg projects from the mounting surface to define a first engagement surface. The first sub-leg projects from the first leg to define a second engagement surface. The second leg projects from the mounting surface to define a third engagement surface. The second sub-leg projects from the second leg to define a fourth engagement surface. The second engagement surface and the first engagement surface form a first mounting rail having a first rail width. The fourth engagement surface and the third engagement surface form a second mounting rail having the first rail width. The first engagement surface and the third engagement surface form a third mounting rail having a second rail width.

  • Patent number: 11700962
    Abstract: A mountable bracket includes a first leg configured to be coupled to a mounting surface, and a first sub-leg coupled to the first leg. The first leg is extended along a first axis and is configured to project from the mounting surface at a first angle to define a first engagement surface. The first sub-leg projects from the first leg at a second angle to define a second engagement surface. The second engagement surface and at least a portion of the first engagement surface form a first mounting rail configured to mate with a first attachment structure having a first opening width. The first engagement surface and a third engagement surface of a second leg form a second mounting rail configured to mate with a second attachment structure having a second opening width. The second opening width is greater than the first opening width.
