DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0029] Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the invention. Wherever possible, same or similar reference numerals are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts or steps. The drawings are in simplified form and are not to precise scale. The word ‘couple’ and similar terms do not necessarily denote direct and immediate connections, but also include connections through intermediate elements or devices. For purposes of convenience and clarity only, directional (up/down, etc.) or motional (forward/back, etc.) terms may be used with respect to the drawings. These and similar directional terms should not be construed to limit the scope in any manner. It will also be understood that other embodiments may be utilized without departing from the scope of the present invention, and that the detailed description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, and that elements may be differently positioned, or otherwise noted as in the appended claims without requirements of the written description being required thereto.

[0030] Various operations may be described as multiple discrete operations in turn, in a manner that may be helpful in understanding embodiments of the present invention; however, the order of description should not be construed to imply that these operations are order dependent.

[0031] As discussed herein there are a number of shapes, geometries, contours, and forms or elements, or serrations or interlocking teeth including but not limited to those on the upper and lower assemblies or the dual sided pivot assembly that include a function capability as discussed herein which alternatively may be accomplished by other and different shapes, geometries, contours, and other forms or elements (or portions thereof) without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention or restraining the disclosure to any particular shape, form, contour or arrangement. For example, the serrations and interlocking teeth may be accomplished by other shaped serrations (undulating, triangular, hexagonal, pin-and-hole, or other arrangements etc.) or may be of different forms or different radial arrays or different spacings while still providing a rotating-support-and locking and are not limited to the shapes or forms shown. Or for a further example, the lockable rotating pivot brackets may be formed in different shapes (such as one with a much more angular polygon structure, a construction of block structures, or completely uniformly smooth structures etc. while still having at one side interlocking teeth (engagement members) and operating together to achieve the functions noted herein. Similarly, the base plates and base plate bosses are provided herein in one alternative geometry to achieve the function but other geometries (different base profiles, different serrations, different shape and size boss) can be readily conceived to accomplish the same function with a different shape and form without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. The mounting platform shown herein is of one version with many openings to enhance convenience of mounting but may be provided with different mounting shapes (linking with the rotating pivot bracket) and with different upper contours to secure to a variety of devices and may have other geometries (ovoidal, rectangular, pyramidal, etc.) without departing from the scope and spirt of this disclosure. As a result, those of skill in this art will recognize that the shapes and contours and forms or elements herein are not limited to the illustrated shapes shown herein in the figures but will understand that alternative and adaptive shapes and geometries may be used to accomplish the same uses herein without departing from the scope of the present invention.

[0032] Referring now to Figs. 1 through 8, a heavy duty adjustable mount system 1 includes an upper assembly 10 having a mounting platform 30 and a mounting base plate extension 32 rotationally linked along a first pivot axis through gated slots 42, 42 to an upper lockable rotating pivot bracket 40, as will be disclosed.

[0033] A lower assembly 50 includes a lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60 rotationally linked along a second pivot axis through gated slots 62, 62 to a lower fixed base plate 70, as will be disclosed.

[0034] Lower fixed base plate 70 is mounted using rigid fastener means, including but not limited to fixing bolts 81, a confining base flange 80, and nuts 81 A to a fixed surface 100 (Fig. 3) such as a rail attachment, hull or deck surface, console surface, track or rigid inflatable boat (RIB) mount.

[0035] Upper assembly 10 and upper lockable rotating pivot bracket 40 are in a fully pivoting and locking arrangement with lower assembly 50 and lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60 through a serries of interlocking teeth 44, 44 on respective pivot contact faces and retained and adjustable between a pivot knob 45 and a threaded tension bolt 46 operating along a third pivot axis. The combine pivot knob 45 and threaded tension bolt 46 will be recognized as a tension member adjusting a lockable between the two respective upper lockable rotating pivot bracket 40 and the lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60 and may be of any suitable construction, including a slip thread, rotating thread, tab-camber-tension shaft or other suitable engagement arrangement drawing brackets 40, 60 together in a releasable locking arrangement. As a result, adjustable mount system 1 will be understood to be movable through three degrees of freedom between the bottom surface of lower fixed base plate 70 fixed to fixed surface 100 and the upper surface of mounting platform 30.

[0036] Mounting platform 30 further includes a plurality of mounting platform mounting openings 31 arrayed across and through the upper surface thereof. It will be understood that sports accessories for removably fixing to a fixed surface such as fixed surface 100, such as sonar mounts, lights, horns, cameras, line reels, view' screens, electronic displays radios, any combination thereof, or any other sports accessory known in the art for fixing to fixed surface 100 may be secured to mounting platform 30 through threaded connections, bolts, toggles, or other links with mounting openings 31 to secure the sports accessory. As a result, it will be understood that release of pivot knob 45 along threaded tension bolt 46 allows locking teeth 44, 44 to separate sufficiently for upper lockable rotating bracket 40 to rotate relative the lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60 fully relative to fixed surface 100. It will be understood that locking teeth 44, 44 are shown in a non-limiting manner as a series of radially arrayed profiles but may be any other suitable form sufficient to interlock when compressibly engaged and resist relative rotational movement.

[0037] Mounting platform 30 with mounting base plate extension 32 further includes on a contact surface a plurality of mounting base engaging serrations 34, that interfit with a corresponding semes of engaging serrations 41 projecting upwardly from a mating surface of upper lockable rotating pivot bracket 40. It will be understood that serrations 34, 41 are shown in a non-limiting manner as a series of radially arrayed profiles but may be any other suitable form sufficient to interlock when compressibly engaged and resist relative rotational movement.

[0038] A mounting base plate boss 33A extends from a central pivot region of mounting base plate extension 32 and provides a guiding pivot socket fit with a corresponding receiving recess 33B in the upper lockable rotating pivot bracket 40. During rotation of upper lockable rotating pivot bracket 40 relative to mounting platform 30 by a plurality of outer grips 40 A, boss 33 A within recess 33B aids in maintaining loose alignment therebetween and avoiding unintentional misalignment of respective serrations 34, 41.

[0039] Lower fixed base plate 70 similarly includes on a contact surface a corresponding plurality of lower fixed base plate engaging serrations 71 projecting upwardly that interfit with a corresponding series of engaging serrations 61 projecting downwardly from a mating surface of lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60. It will be understood that serrations 71, 61 are shown in a non-limiting manner as a series of radially arrayed profiles but may be any other suitable form sufficient to interlock when compressibly engaged and resist relative rotational movement.

[0040] It will be understood that the respective serrations 61, 71, 34, 41, and teeth 44 are distributed evenly so as to allow engagement in any relative position under compression tension into a locking immobile fixed condition.

[0041] Lower fixed base plate 70 includes a lower base plate boss 72 extending from a central pivot region thereof and provides a guiding pivot socket fit with a corresponding receiving recess 7213 in the lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60. During rotation of lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60 relative to lower fixed base plate 70 by a plurality of outer grips 62A, boss 72A within recess 72B aids in maintaining loose alignment therebetween and avoiding unintentional misalignment of corresponding respective serrations 61, 71.

[0042] Gated slots 42, on the bases of respective upper lockable rotating pivot bracket 40 and lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60 are arcuate relative to the respective pivot axes of each pivot bracket 40, 60. A respective corresponding one or more thumb screws or bolts 43 extending respectively from mounting base plate extension 32 and lower fixed base plate 70 extend within and through gated slots 42 and receive respective grip heads 43 A and washers 4313 in a threaded attachment. As noted within cross section view Fig. 3 and elsewhere, thumb screws or bolts 43 are guided within gated slots 42.

[0043] During relative rotation adjustment between mounting platform 30 and upper lockable rotating pivot bracket 40 or lower fixed base 70 and lower lockable rotating pivot bracket 60, gated slots 42 guide the rotation to define the rotating motion about the respective pivot axes. Additionally, following rotational adjustment, grip heads 43 A and thumb screws 43 are tightened and firmly fix respective serrations 61, 71, 34, 41 in an interlock arrangement.

[0044] As a result, it will be readily understood having studied the present disclosure that, after final adjustment, ready separation between upper assembly 10 and lower assembly 50 allows safe storage of upper assembly 10 (with any device fixed thereon) and easy re-securement in the same repeatable position relative to fixed surface 100 within three degrees of motion relative to the three adjustment axes. Additionally, where a user may have a single lower assembly 50 but a plurality of upper assemblies 10 with respective devices thereon, a user may easily swap between upper assemblies 10 while maintaining any initially set arrangement within three degrees of motion relative to the three adjustment axes. [0045] A related and alternative adjustable mount system 1 A is further discussed in Figs. 5-8 wherein mounting platform 30 with the plurality of mounting platform mounting openings 31 and mounting base plate extension 32, mounting base plate boss 33 A is maintained with respective mounting base engaging serrations 34. Similarly, lower fixed base plate 70 is maintained with respective lower fixed base plate serrations 71 and respective fixed base plate boss 72A is maintained. Similar fixing threaded thumb screws 43, grip heads 43A and as needed respective bolts 43C are provided. Base flange 80 with extending fixing bolts 81 and nuts 81 A are maintained so that (not shown) a fixed surface may be secured between lower fixed base plate 70 and base flange 80 as in adjustable mount system 1.

[0046] A dual sided pivot assembly 90 with outer grips 90 A is provided between mounting base plate extension 32 and lower fixed base plate 70. On an upper surface thereof and a lower surface thereof are respective pluralities of serrations 91A, 91B that are, like the similar serrations 71, 61, 34, 41 radially distributed evenly about the central axis of dual sided pivot assembly 90. There is a top boss 93 and a bottom boss 94 in the respective upper and lower sides of dual sided pivot assembly 90 and are shaped to receive respective mounting base plate boss 33 A and fixed base plate boss 72 A to provide a relative rotational guidance therebetween during use or an initial assembly.

[0047] On the upper surface of dual sided pivot assembly 90 thumb screws 43, 43 engage respective nuts 43 C retained in mounting platform 30 and secure in an interlocking manner between the respective serrations 34, 91 A preventing unintended rotation.

[0048] Gated slots 92, 92, similar to gated slots 42, 62, are symmetrically opposed on either side of the flange at the base of dual sided pivot assembly 90. When assembled, thumb screws 43 with grip heads 43 A protrude through respective gated slots 92 allowing rotation to be locked and unlocked on demand through adjustment of respective thumb screws 43, grip heads 43 A, and allowing a rotational axis adjustment of mounting platform 30 relative to lower fixed base plate 70 and any fixed surface 100 captured therebetween with base flange 80. [0049] Those of skill in the art will further appreciate that the operational aspects noted herein may be accomplished by additional and different shapes or curves while achieving similar results. For example, as noted above the gated slots are symmetrically opposed on either side of their respective elements allowing relative rotation of the components between uses relative to their respective pivot axes in an unlocked condition or free condition. Similarly, when in a locked condition and the respective thumb screws are tightened the relative serrations are pressed together and lock preventing rotation. However, the gated slots may be stepped slots, of greater or lesser curvature, with recesses for bolt heads or screw head clearances etc., as long as the function is maintained different geometries may be understood by those of skill in this art having studied the present disclosure. As a further example, and as noted above relative to upper and lower lockable rotating pivot brackets 40, 60, the dual sided pivot assembly 90 may have alternative shapes, forms, and geometries sufficient to receive and rotationally guide between the mounting platform and the lower fixed base plate 70 such that rotation of the grip heads 43 A and thumb screws 43 may be accessed by a user through the side recesses. To accomplish similar goals, the mounting platform 30 of alternative adjustable mount system 1A may be similarly sapped out (for secure storage of mounted devices between uses or swapped out for other mounted devices during modified uses).

[0050] It will be further understood that while the phrases teeth 44, 44 are used and serrations 34, 41, 61, 71, 91 A, 9 IB are used herein, they are radially evenly arrayed profiles that may be selected for use based on study of the present invention, such that the forms shown herein teeth/serrations may he used interchangeably without departing from the scope or spirit of the present invention and the terms teeth/serrations are may be selected in the claim language for non-limiting convenience of illustration so that those of skill in this art will recognize that descriptively or functionally teeth = tooth = serrations = an interfitting geometry well within the scope of the present, disclosure as understood by those of skill in the art having studied the present disclosure. [0051] Also, the inventors intend that only those claims which use the words "means for" are intended to be interpreted under 35 USC 112. Moreover, no limitations from the specification are intended to be read into any claims, unless those limitations are expressly included in the claims.

[0052] Having described at least one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings, it will be apparent to those skills that the invention is not limited to those precise embodiments, and that various modifications and variations can be made in the presently disclosed system without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. Thus, it is intended that the present disclosure cover modifications and variations of this disclosure provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
