ABSTRACT:
Relates to an adjustable mounting bracket for instruments such as the conventional dial and air probe indicators and the like. The base portion of the instrument supporting bracket is formed from a one-piece flat strip metal stock cold worked into channel or C-shaped formation in cross section. The free ends of the opposing side wall sections of the channel formation are similarly inclined toward one another to form a dovetailed guideway or track upon which the instrument mounting bracket is slidably movable in opposite directions. The juncture of the side sections to the bottom transverse section are thinned to form a resiliently resisting hinge enabling one or both of the side sections to be resistingly inclined toward one another to narrow the dovetailed track and thus clamp and hold the complementary dovetailed extension forming part of the underside of the instrument supporting bracket. Improved means is incorporated into the supporting bracket for expediting manufacture and assembly and for accurately adjustably repositioning the instrument along the guideway.
