ABSTRACT:
The inventon is for an assembly for a mounting frame that has at least three rails or elongated frame members. The assembly comprises a pair of couplings and means for fastening the couplings to each other. Each coupling includes means for receiving one of the rails, the coupling element and the rail being movable relative to each other longitudinally of the rail. Further, each coupling includes means for securing the rail at a pre-selected longitudinal position relative to the coupling. One of the couplings has means for connecting the third rail to itself. When the couplings are fastened to one another, the receiving means on each coupling are disposed to support the first two rails in crossed or non-parallel relationship to one another.
The invention is also for an apparatus for mounting an article on support means. The mounting apparatus comprises a frame having at least three rails, means for attaching the frame to the support means at at least three non-collinear locations, and an assembly comprising a pair of couplings.
