ABSTRACT:
A motion detection system housing includes a base having a back portion attachable to a wall, a cover having a front portion for mounting operative components of the detection system, a primary living hinge integrally connecting lower portions of the base and cover to one another such that the cover can undergo pivotal movement toward and away from the base between opened and closed conditions, and a latch releasably securing upper portions of the base and cover to one another. The cover and base have configurations that permit telescoping of the cover at least partially over the base into the closed condition. The latch can secure the cover to the base at different fixed telescoped positions with the front portion of the cover correspondingly disposed at different fixed declination adjustment positions relative to a reference plane. The latch includes a protuberance on the upper portion of the base and an elongated strap pivotally attached by an auxiliary living hinge to the upper portion of the cover and having apertures at different locations corresponding to the different fixed telescoped positions of the cover relative to the base and thus to the different possible fixed declination adjustment positions of the front portion of the cover relative to the reference plane. The strap is movable toward and away from the base between a released position where the protuberance is removed from all apertures and a secured position where the protuberance is interfitted with the one of the apertures corresponding to the selected one of the fixed declination adjustment positions.
