ABSTRACT:
A mounting plate capable of mounting emergency unit fixtures or similar fixtures in an industrial environment, the mounting plate of the invention being securely attachable to a variety of support structures including horizontal and vertical wall surfaces, posts of differing cross-sectional shapes and dimensions and Unistrut components. The mounting plate is formed generally as a flat body having integral portions formed out of plane to provide particular mounting functions. The unit fixtures per se mount directly to the mounting plate through engagement of openings formed on rear walls of the unit fixtures with free legs of bayonet mounts extending from a face of the mounting plate, the plate being snap-locked in certain embodiments to the fixtures, a locking mechanism being actuated on full engagement of the bayonet mounts to positively hold the unit fixtures to the mounting plate. The mounting plate can be attached to wall surfaces by means of screws after use of nailing stakes utilized for temporary holding the mounting plate to a wall. Banding or strapping elements can be used with the mounting plate to attach the mounting plate/unit fixture combination to poles of varying shape and thickness, thereby particularly allowing mounting to round and square columns and the like.
