ABSTRACT:
The invention is an improved support for meters, in particular for water meters. The invention can be used as a universal application because it is adjustable. Meter supports of the prior art are usually of a common yoke type and each meter configuration requires a meter support of its own because of its variation in dimensions. The present adjustable feature is easily adaptable to any size or configuration of meters. The universal and adjustable meter support consists of two adapters to fit the inlet and outlet ports of the meter being installed, two end members, and a spacer member. The spacer member is easily fabricated from commonly available stock. The simple assembly of the five simple components to the meter to be supported indicates its adjustability and universal application.
