20130026308 | MOUNTING BRACKET MEANS FOR SOLAR ARRAYS AND THE LIKE - A mounting bracket arrangement for fastening a solar array to a vertical support pipe, including a generally horizontal bracket plate seated transversely across the pipe to close the interior thereof, and a pair of parallel vertical bracket plates having corresponding lower edge portions each containing pairs of parallel vertical slots that define a center section and a pair of side sections. The vertical bracket plates are arranged normal to the transverse bracket plate such that the center sections extend into the pipe interior via horizontal slots contained in the horizontal plate, and the side sections extend longitudinally externally of the support member for connection by external fastener devices. The solar array is pivotally connected between the upper portions of the vertical bracket plates for angular adjustment relative to the support pipe. | 01-31-2013 |
