ABSTRACT:
A mounting bracket for use with a base member having a flat upper base surface and an elongate shoulder extending upward from the base surface. The shoulder has a V-shaped recess extending along its length. The base member also has a tapped bolt hole adjacent to the base surface. The mounting bracket comprises a bracket member having an upper surface adapted to support a component, a flat lower bracket surface and a footing adjoining the bracket surface, and a pilot hole. The footing is inserted into the V-shaped recess with the upper beveled surface mating with the upper side of the V-shaped recess and with the bracket surface mating with the base surface. A connecting bolt extends through the pilot hole into the bolt hole. Screwing of the connecting bolt into the bolt hole results in insertion of the footing further into the V-shaped recess with the mating between the upper beveled surface and the upper side of the V-shaped recess resulting in the bracket surface being urged against the base surface.
