ABSTRACT:
A new and improved knock down type of mounting device particularly adapted for mounting an electric motor or other body in a desired position relative to associated structure. The device includes an adjustable band clamp adapted to be closely received peripherally around the motor housing. This band clamp has a plurality of outwardly extending dimples disposed across the width thereof at spaced intervals therearound for defining a plurality of inwardly facing leg receiving areas. The device also includes a plurality of separate mounting legs. One end area of each leg is adapted to be closely captured between the band clamp and motor in an associated one of the receiving areas. Each dimple has a laterally disposed through slot which receives a portion of a radially outward extending flange included on the one end area of the associated leg. Another portion of the flange is configured to engage the motor housing side wall at spaced apart locations to assist in stabilizing the overall mounting arrangement. The other end area of each leg includes means for fixedly mounting it to some associated structure. The legs may also be configured to include a support lip at the one end area adapted to engage an end face of the motor housing.
