Abstract
An adjustable mounting assembly for mounting electric motors and the like onto a support surface has a clamp in the form of a circular band with a pair of circular wire hoops for encircling the exterior of the article, e.g., a motor, to be mounted and a plurality of mounting brackets each having a leg portion for abutting the surface of the article to be mounted and a base portion disposed at a right angle to the leg portion with an aperture for mounting the article onto the support surface. Each bracket leg portion has a plurality of longitudinally spaced openings and tabs for receiving the hoops of the band at selective positions along its length. Each bracket is adjustably connected to the band for circumferential positioning at selective locations on the band to axially align the apertures of the upstanding base portions with an existing mounting arrangement of the support surface. Each bracket is also adjustably connected to the band for independent longitudinal positioning relative to the band and to the article to be mounted and relative to one another for placing the upstanding base portion of each bracket adjacent a portion of the support surface whereby the article to be mounted may be properly positioned and mounted onto a support where the mounting arrangements are uneven or not in the same plane.
