ABSTRACT:
A continuously adjustable surface mounting system for supporting objects in a range of positions with respect to a mounted surface. The system includes a surface mounted assembly and one or more support assemblies releasably secured at any point along a length of the surface mounted assembly. J-shaped bends formed in member(s) of the support assembly fit within T-shaped channels in the surface mounted assembly and react to cantilever force exerted upon the surface mounted assembly by binding within the T-shaped channels, thereby locking in place on the surface mounted assembly. Clips may be secured to the support assembly and tightened to prevent release of the support assembly from a force opposing the cantilevered force. A cantilevered member extending from the support assembly preferably supports a shelf on which objects may be placed. To adjust sag of the cantilevered member, tilt adjustment screws may be used to tilt the cantilevered member with respect to the remainder of the support assembly. Flexible wire management shrouds may flank and be attached to the surface mounted assembly for running and hiding wires, cords, etc. along the length of the surface mounted assembly. The flexible wire management shrouds provide easy opening and access to wires, cords, etc. within the wire management shrouds. Vibration isolation elements may be installed between the shelf and the remainder of the support assembly to isolate each shelf from receiving and transmitting vibration. A lighting system is preferably installed in several locations on the surface mounting system.
