Abstract
The present invention comprises an antenna mount including at least a first anchoring portion having an open region formed therethrough wherein the open region is sized to accommodate a mounting structure such as a pole, mast, or other such structure. The antenna mount may include a locking device configured to releasably secure the antenna mount about a mounting structure disposed within the open region of the first anchoring portion. The locking device may comprise a first locking structure adjustably coupled to the anchoring portion, the first locking structure adjustable from a first position peripherally located with respect to a centerline of the open region to a second position adjacent the periphery of the open region, the first locking structure configured to releasably engage a mounting structure accommodated within the open region when the first locking structure is at the second position. The antenna mount also includes an antenna bracket comprising a first wall having an antenna engaging face and a second wall having a first face rotatably engaged to the first anchoring portion. An antenna mount as herein described thus provides an antenna mount suitable for installation on a variety of variously sized and configured mounting structures while allowing simple variable azimuth adjustment of patch or panel type antennas mounted to the antenna brackets.
