ABSTRACT:
A mounting device for supporting a sensing device in relation to a supporting structure, and related method of installing a sensing device, are disclosed. In at least some embodiments, the mounting device includes a first housing portion having a first appendage, and a second housing portion having a second appendage, where the second housing portion is slidable in relation to the first housing portion. The mounting device further includes an actuating portion capable of causing sliding movement between the housing portions, where the sensing device is supported within at least one of the housing portions. In some embodiments, a rotatable swivel ball on which the sensing device is supported is contained within at least one of the housing portions, and actuation of the actuating portion results in both the coupling of the mounting device to a supporting structure and a setting of a position of the swivel ball.
