Detailed description

[0055] The following text is a detailed description of numerous embodiments of the present invention. The description should be understood only as an illustrative statement that does not cover every possible embodiment, since a description of each possible embodiment would be impractical, if not impossible, and it is clear that any feature, characteristic, component, composition, ingredient, product, stage or method described herein can be removed and replaced in whole or in part by any other characteristic, characteristic, component, composition, ingredient, product, step or method described herein. Numerous alternative embodiments may be implemented using either current technology or future technology after the filing date of this patent, which will still be within the scope of the claims.

[0056] Figures 1 and 2 show an illustrative embodiment of track 10 for use in a track mount system or similar system. Although it is possible to use several tracks, only one track 10 of several tracks of one system of fastening track equipment that can perform similar functions will be described. In addition, the size, shape and / or configuration of track 10 may vary depending on the size of the surface for installation and equipment installed on track 10. Track 10 has a base plate 15, which may have an elongated rectangular shape (or any other suitable shape) and three grooves that extend along the entire length of the base plate 15. Three grooves may consist of a first external groove 20, a middle groove 25 and a second external groove 30. These grooves are best seen in figure 2 as T-shaped slots along the entire length, or rather along the length of the base plate 15. T and groove generally parallel to each other. Each groove 20, 25, and 30 may have a series of enlarged open areas 35 that are adjacent to the narrowed areas 40. In some embodiments, the enlarged open areas 35 are symmetrically arranged so that they are spaced apart from each other by the same distance and are aligned in transverse rows along the length of the support plates 15. For example, two open sections 35 in the first outer groove 20 and two open sections 35 in the second outer groove 30 may be located at a distance of about 127 mm from each other. A distance of 127 mm can span any number of open areas 35 in the groove (first external groove 20 or second external groove 30). To illustrate the flexibility of the interval, every third open area can be located at a distance of 127 mm from each other. In yet another example, every fourth open area 35 can be separated by 127 mm from the other area. A distance of 127 mm is provided as an example only, and any desired distance for open areas 25 can be used. As another example, the enlarged open areas 35 of one or more slots 20, 25 and 30 cannot all be equidistant and / or cannot be aligned with other enlarged open areas of other grooves.

[0057] Track 10 may include one or more mounting holes 55a, 55b, 55c, and 55d. Mounting holes 55a, 55b, 55c and 55d can be used to fasten track 10 to the surface using mounting devices. Fasteners include, without limitation, studs, bolts, rivets, nails, glue, adhesive tape, welding, epoxy, or any similar means that mechanically connects or holds two or more objects together.

[0058] Figure 3 is a perspective rear view of the support 50. The support 50 may have many different shapes and sizes as shown in the drawings and described below. The support 50 is an intermediate link between a piece of equipment and a track. The support may have any number of mounting pins 140 attached to it to support the weight of a piece of equipment or attached to the device support. To increase the bearing capacity of the support 50, additional mounting studs may be used. The support 50 may have holes that reduce the weight of the support 50.

[0059] The support 50 has a mounting plate 135, a rear surface 165, a front surface 195, and four mounting pins 140a, 140b, 140c, and 140d. The rear surface 165 is on the opposite side of the support 50 opposite the front surface 195. The support 50 is detachable, coupled and / or attached to track 10 or in a fixed position of the plate. Each mounting pin 140a, 140b, 140c and 140d includes a corresponding portion of the shaft 145a, 145b, 145c and 145d and a corresponding enlarged portion of the head 150a, 150b, 150c, 150d. The locking pin 155 can be moved (for example, by means of a spring, elastic material or other means of movement) outward towards the extended position of the locking pin to engage track 10 in FIG. 1 and, more specifically, with the corresponding hole of the locking pin in the fixed position of the plate , the hole of the locking pin 900, as shown in figure 9, or enlarged open area 35 of one of the middle grooves 25 of track 10. As an alternative to the locking pin 155, which engages only with the middle groove 25, with the axle pin 155 can be mounted on a mounting plate 135 for engagement with the first outer groove 20, the second outer groove 25, or both. The locking pin 155 can be retracted either separately, or in combination with the right locking pin release lever 160b, or with the left locking pin release lever 160a, which is operatively connected to the release mechanism 190 of figure 7. It should be understood that the locking lever release pin 160a and / or 160b can be oriented in any direction to avoid contact with other equipment or devices, and allows the support 50 to be disconnected from track 10. In addition, in some embodiments it may be necessary to actuate two or more trip levers to remove support 50 from track 10. This may provide additional security by preventing unwanted movement of the mounting plate 135 when one of the trip pin release levers 160a or 160b is accidentally actuated. The front surface 195 may have any device and / or equipment attached to it.

[0060] The support 50 can be attached either to track 10 or to a fixed plate (not shown) by interference fit, friction fit, or using a locking pin 155 that comes into contact with either open area 35 or hole 900 the locking pin of figure 9. For example, the mounting pins 140 may abut against the bottom of the narrowed portion of the key-shaped grooves (not shown) in the fixed position of the plate for mounting the support 50 to the fixed plate. In another example, the locking pin 155 can exert a biasing force on track 10 or on a fixed plate to fit with an interference fit of support 50 onto track 10 or on a fixed plate. In another example, the locking pin 155 can be used to reduce the mobility of the support 50 with respect to any track 10 or to a fixed plate with engagement of the hole 900 of the locking pin or open area 35. It should be understood that track 10 and / or the fixed plate are not limited to examples of mounting supports 50.

[0061] In figure 4, track 10 and the mounting plate 135 are shown in common mode configuration, which is used to fasten the mounting plate 135 to track 10. As shown in figure 4, when the enlarged parts of the heads 1515a, 1515b, 1515c and 1515d of the mounting pins 1155a, 1155b, 1155c and 1155d of mounting plate 135 are inserted into the enlarged holes of the heads 1800a, 1800b, 1800d and 1800c of the grooves 1610 and 1620, the locking pin 1500 does not fit into the groove 1615 due to its location with respect to the narrowed part 1825a. In some embodiments, placing the enlarged portions of the head 1800a, 1515b, 1515c and 1515d in the slots 1610 and 1620 causes the locking pin 1500 to move backward from its extended position outward.

[0062] In figure 5, track 10 and mounting plate 135 are shown in a non-in-phase configuration. The rod parts 1510 (not shown) of the mounting pins 1155a, 1155b, 1155c and 1155d are sized to allow them to pass through the tapered parts 1825, while the enlarged parts of the head 1515a, 1515b, 1515c and 1515d remain in the slots 1610 and 1620. Movements from the mounting plate 135 down (or up) in the direction of the arrow 1100 aligns the enlarged parts of the head 1515a, 1515b, 1515c and 1515d with the narrowed regions of 1825b, 1825c, 1825d and 1825e of the grooves 1610 and 1620 and aligns the locking pin 1500 with the enlarged holes 1800e 1615 groove. The width of the locking pin 1500 may be greater than the width of the upper passage 1110 and the lower passage 1115 through the narrowed regions 1825f and 1825g adjacent to the enlarged hole 1800e, which prevents further movement of the mounting plate 135, since the locking pin 1500 passes through the enlarged hole 1800e and into the groove 1615. In embodiments where the locking pin 1500 is moved to the extended position, the locking pin 1500 can enter the extended position automatically as soon as the pin 1500 is aligned with the enlarged hole 1800e. The operator can remove the locking pin 1500 from the groove 1615 using any of the releases of the locking pin 1160/1175 described above, and again move the mounting plate 135 along track 10 to a different height.

[0063] Although Figures 4 and 5 show a mounting plate 135 attached to track 10 with four mounting pins 1155a, 1155b, 1155c, 1155d and one locking pin 1500, it should be understood that any other number of studs and locking pins may alternatively be used. pins. Such an option can provide a reliable connection under increased loads, providing more contact points between the mounting plate 135 and track 10. In another embodiment, the mounting plate 135 may include eight studs 1155 evenly distributed over the mounting plate 135. In another embodiment, any other number of studs 1155 can be located on mounting plate 125, which provides a distributed connection to track 10. The enlarged parts of head 1515 are sized to allow them to pass through open areas 1625 of slots 1610, 1615, 1620 and be hvachennymi narrowed regions for grooves 1630 1610, 1615, 1620, whereas the stem portion 1510 have a size allowing them to pass through the constricted region 1630 of slots 610, 115, 1620.

[0064] A fixed plate is an alternative to track 10 of figure 1. The support 50 of figure 3 can be removably connected to the fixed plate. The fixed plate may include any suitable mounting structure or mounting device for fixing nodes to the surface. Fasteners include, but are not limited to, studs, bolts, rivets, nails, glue, adhesive tape, welds, epoxy, or any other similar devices that mechanically connect or bond two or more objects together. In this embodiment shown, the fixed plate has four mounting holes for fixing the fixed plate to the surface. The fixed plate also includes grooves in the form of key-like grooves, each of which has an enlarged opening of the head and a narrowed part. The enlarged upper opening of the key-shaped grooves is of sufficient size to receive enlarged parts of the head, and the narrowed parts are of a size that allows the rod parts to pass through them with the capture of the parts of the head in the narrowed area. The capture of the enlarged parts of the head can be achieved by interference fit in the gap between the mounting studs and the narrowed parts of the first external groove, middle groove or second external groove. The locking pin may enter a hole that is large enough to receive the locking pin when it is aligned with the specified hole. The key-shaped grooves and the hole of the locking pin are located as a mirror image of the mounting studs.

[0065] Figure 6 is a perspective view of a front surface 195 of another embodiment of a support 50. The mounting plate 135 has mounting holes 170a, 170b, 170c, 170d used to secure the mounting plate supports 135 and pieces of equipment (not shown) using any of the mounting hardware devices listed above. Although only four holes 170a, 170b, 170c, 170d for mounting equipment are shown in FIG. 6, any number of mounting holes 170 can be used, in any configuration, for installing equipment or devices. Nuts 185a, 185B, 185C, and 185d are used to secure the studs 140a, 140b, 140c, and 140d to the mounting plate 135. The fasteners 185a, 185B, 185C, and 185d are not limited to nuts, and any other fastening devices may be used. The release mechanism 190 is mounted on the mounting plate 135 and has an internal gearing for engaging or disengaging the locking pin (e.g., locking pin 155 shown in FIG. 7) when one or both of the locking pin releases 160a and / or 160b are actuated. In another embodiment, the release mechanism 190 may include engagement to actuate the locking pin 155 against spring displacement. One example of how the release mechanism 190 can be found in Figure 7. A piece of equipment is attached to the front surface 195 of the mounting plate 135.

[0066] Figure 7 shows one embodiment of an internal reset mechanism 190. The locking pin 155 is shown in the extended position when it passes through the hole 60 of the locking pin of track 10. Track 10 can be made in the embodiment shown in figure 28a. The release mechanism 190 may be secured to the housing 715. A spring 720 provides a biasing force to position the locking pin 155 in the extended position. The locking pin 155 may have a lifting rod 725 that extends through the center of the locking pin 155. The lifting pin 725 can be positioned so that it provides a mechanical neutral equilibrium point for moving the locking pin 155 without tilting or seizing inside the housing 715.

[0067] The release pin release 160 may be used to exert a force on the lock pin 155 against the biasing force of the spring 720 to move the lock pin 155 from the extended position to the inserted position. In the inserted position, the leaf end 710 of the locking pin 155 is flush with the rear surface 165 of the mounting plate 135. The locking pin release 160 may have an inclined section 730 that acts when the locking pin release 160 acts on the locking pin 155, upward force on the lifting pin 725, the retracting force of the locking pin 155 is applied. In other words, when the release pin release 160 is activated, the locking pin 155 is inserted into the hole. The release pin release 160 may include a return spring 735 to provide a force to return the release pin release 160 to the locked position after operation. In the locked position of the release pin 160 of the locking pin, the support 50 is locked in place by the locking pin 155 entering the hole 60.

[0068] Figure 7 also shows the connection to the mounting studs 140 (ie, 140a and 140b) in the first outer groove 20 and in the second outer groove 30.

[0069] As shown in figure 8, the support 50 may include an adapter, described below in more detail. The adapter is connected to the front surface 195 of the mounting plate 135 and is detachably connected to the unit of equipment through an interface device. The adapter allows the user to fix the support 50 on the track without affecting the volume and / or weight of a piece of equipment that makes it difficult to mount the support 50. In other words, the support 50 can be fixed directly to the piece of equipment, and the interaction of the support 50 with track 10 can be complicated by size, shape, weight or other factors of equipment. The adapter is attached to the support 50. The interface device described below is used to connect a piece of equipment to the adapter.

[0070] Figure 8 illustrates another embodiment of a support 50. In this embodiment, the adapter is a second mounting plate 225 attached to the mounting plate 135. This embodiment allows adapters (described below) or other equipment to be mounted on track 10. Mounting plate 135 may have any number of mounting pins 140 required to secure support 50 to track 10. If support 50 is used to support heavy loads, additional mounting pins 140 may be added to increase load capacity supports 50. In this embodiment of the mounting plate 135, three nuts 185a, 185b, 185c are used to fasten the three mounting studs 140a, 140b, 140c to the mounting plate 135. The three mounting studs 140a, 140b, 140c may be arranged in a triangle shape, as shown figure 8. The mounting studs 185b and 185c are located along the horizontal axis H, and the mounting stud 185a is located along the vertical axis V. The midpoint M lies on the horizontal axis H and is at the same distance between the mounting studs 185b and 185c. The vertical axis passes through the midpoint M. The mounting pin 185a and enters the open area 35 of the middle groove 25 when the mounting studs 185b and 185c interact with the open area 35 of the second external groove 30 and the first external groove 20 of track 10. Locking pin associated with the release The locking pin 190 can also interact with the open areas 35 of the middle groove 25. The nuts 185a, 185b and 185c may be any other fasteners not only limited to nuts. The release mechanism 190 is fixed to the mounting plate 135, and with the help of an internal gearing can retract or push out the locking pin (for example, the locking pin 155 shown in FIG. 7) when one or both of the locking pin releases 160a and 160b are actuated. The second mounting plate 225 is attached to the front surface 195 of the mounting plate 135 with a threaded fastener 230 screwed into the mounting holes 170 (not shown). It should be noted that the use of the fastener 230 is not a limiting example of the fastening means that can be used to connect the second mounting plate 225 to the mounting plate 135, in this case screw. Other illustrative examples of fasteners include, but are not limited to, a bolt / nut combination, cotter pins, rivets, and any other fastening mechanisms. The second mounting plate 225 may include two holes 220 for mounting equipment, appliances, adapters, and / or other objects through them.

[0071] In one embodiment, the second mounting plate 225 may have a first surface 240 and a second surface 245, the first surface 240 being located opposite the second surface 245. A second disengaging mechanism (not shown) is connected to the second surface 245. The second disengaging mechanism in its operation the reset mechanism 190 is not different in FIG. 7. The second trip mechanism includes a second locking pin (not shown) extending through the second mounting plate 225 and extending outward from the first surface 240 in an extended position. A second displacement spring (not shown) that moves the second locking pin 215 to the extended position, and at least one second release pin of the locking pin (i.e., 210a and 210b) are functionally connected to the second locking pin 215 and when brought into the action retracts the second locking pin 215 in the direction of the second mounting plate 225 into the retracted position, and when released, the movement spring is allowed to move the second locking pin 215 to the extended position.

[0072] Figure 9 shows one example of an interface device 172 used to connect an adapter to equipment (ie, to a second mounting plate 225) described above. A connection plate 980 can be used as a support for the coupler 172. Mounting holes 170a, 170b, 170c, 170d can be used to connect the piece of equipment to the coupler 172. Although four mounting holes are shown in the drawing, to securely mount the piece of equipment to the coupler 172, any number of mounting holes may be used. The connection plate may also include a hole 905 for the locking pin passing through the connection plate and at least one fixing pin connected to the rear surface of the mounting plate, a separate at least one fixing pin (i.e., 140a and 140b) which has a rod portion that projects outward from the contact surface 982, and an enlarged portion of the head located at the distal end of the corresponding rod portion. One or more mounting pins 140a and 140b are connected in a sliding fit to the individual grooves of at least one key groove (ie 220 in FIG. 8) to connect the plate 980 to the second mounting plate 225. In the locked position, the second locking pin 215 enters hole 905 to limit relative movement between the connection plate 980 and the second mounting plate 225.

[0073] In another embodiment, in the coupler used with the adapter, the connection plate 980 may include two mounting pins 140a and 140b and a locking pin hole 981 as described above, as well as a plurality of knurled screws. Thumbscrews can provide easy attachment of a piece of equipment (not shown) without the use of separate fasteners, i.e. bolts, studs, etc. Thumbscrews can be of any configuration, depending on the requirements for the equipment used.

[0074] In another embodiment, the interface device is used as an interface device between two types of adapters. For example, the connection plate 980 may have one or more mounting pins 140 on the first side, a lock pin hole 981, and a cup adapter (described below) on the second side.

[0075] Another example of an equipment interface device is a surface support (not shown). The surface support may be secured to track 10 directly through support 50 or via the adapter described above. The surface support 250 is attached to the support 50 by four fasteners 230. The surface support has a handle used to remove the surface support from the track when the release pin release is actuated. Handle 265 can also be used to hang IV bag and dropper cords on additional pieces of equipment. Many holes were drilled in the surface support body to reduce the weight of the entire unit and organize and secure the cords and other devices as they pass through the many holes. In this unlimited embodiment, the plurality of holes have a size that effectively reduces weight without weakening the entire structure. There is a compartment for the power cable of equipment mounted on a surface support.

[0076] In another embodiment, if the surface support is mounted directly on the main support, the surface support does not function as an interface device and may include an adapter mounted on the surface support body and used to secure a piece of equipment. A unit of equipment may include an interface device, for example, medical and sports equipment. The unit of equipment, the surface support and the main support will work as a whole. Fasteners fasten the surface support to the main support.

[0077] In yet another example, a SeQual Eclipse support may be used, for example, to install a SeQual Eclipse portable oxygen concentrator or other equipment (not shown) on it. To reduce weight and save material, holes are made in the SeQual Eclipse. To limit the movement of the SeQual Eclipse equipment and to fix the equipment on the SeQual Eclipse support, the table of restrictions and the lever of restrictions are used. A pair of individual fasteners are used to attach the SeQual Eclipse equipment to the SeQual Eclipse support. One fastener is mounted on a mounting rack that holds the SeQual Eclipse equipment above the SeQual Eclipse support. The cord holder with access window is located under the platform on which the SeQual Eclipse equipment is installed. Cords from SeQual Eclipse equipment are stored in the box and are accessible through the access window. SeQual Eclipse hardware fasteners are shown in the drawing and is used to mount SeQual Eclipse hardware on a SeQual Eclipse support. For example, six SeQual Eclipse fasteners may be used, but their number is not limited to six.

[0078] In another embodiment, if the SeQual Eclipse support is mounted directly on the main support, the SeQual Eclipse support does not function as an interface device. The SeQual Eclipse unit of equipment, installation and support will work as a unit. Both supports are attached to each other using fixing devices.

[0079] In yet another exemplary interface device, an equipment holder may be used to hold portable equipment that is not mounted on a support / track. For example, a portable ultrasound machine, thermometer, calculator, etc. can be fixed in place using the equipment holder. The equipment holder has a housing with two fixing ears, two side walls and a floor. The floor and side walls are used to store equipment in the holder. A hole in the center of the floor reduces weight and allows cords or other devices to pass through the housing. Two mounting ears limit any movement of an item of equipment up and to the side.

[0080] In another embodiment, in which the equipment holder is mounted directly on a support, the equipment holder does not function as an interface device. The equipment unit, equipment holder and support will work as one unit. In yet another embodiment, fasteners may be used to secure the equipment holder directly to the track without using a support. An example of this technology is shown in figure 22. The exhaust element is moved to the holding position by the spring and the moving frame. The exhaust element has a head that can mimic the shape of the mounting screw used to attach the equipment holder to a track or to a fixed plate. An offset frame can be used to create a pressure surface to counteract the pressure of the spring on the head 54 when the head is engaged with the track. The movement frame also provides offset from the track so that pressure is not applied directly to the body of the equipment holder.

[0081] Turning to the description of the mounting studs, where a single track stud may be used in the embodiment. A single track pin is used to mount a piece of equipment on track 10 of figure 1 installed in a building or vehicle. A single track pin has a mounting head, a crimp clip and a friction clip. The mounting head has a round shape with a threaded rod extending from its center. The holding clip and friction clip are screwed onto the threaded rod. The clip has a grip surface. The mounting head also has a grip surface. When the fastening head is inserted into track 10, the ferrule can be rotated in a clockwise direction so that the grip surface of the ferrule and the grip surface of the fastening head exert pressure on track 10 to fix a single track pin to track 10.

[0082] A single track pin is a universal pin that allows you to create different configurations of a single track pin on a piece of equipment. The only limitation for these configurations is that the individual locations of the track pin must coincide with the grooves (20, 25, 30) and with the open areas 35 on track 10. When a single track pin is attached to a piece of equipment, the retaining clip rotates counterclockwise, to apply pressure to a piece of equipment and prevent unscrewing the threaded rod from the piece of equipment during use. A single track pin may include a spring providing the displacement force necessary to apply pressure to track 10.

[0083] Figures 1A and 10B show another embodiment of the adapter as a universal adapter 990. The receiving groove 2015 provides a universal adapter 990 with a sliding fit with a piece of equipment or another element with a tongue 2026 in figure 10c, which corresponds to the receiving groove 2015. At the same time, the receiving the groove 2015 is limited to a plurality of guides 992a and 992b. Many grooves 992a and 992b pair with the tongue 2026 and simulate a tongue and groove joint. The receiving equipment interlock 2010 has a tab 2026 of the universal adapter 990. The receiving equipment release 2005, when activated, as shown by arrows 2004, disables the receiving equipment interlock 2010 so that the equipment unit or tab 2026 is slid separate from the universal adapter 990 The receiver retainer pin 2020 can be moved (for example, by means of a spring, resilient material, or other means of movement) outward in the direction of the expanded locked floor zheniya for engaging with the corresponding track 10, more specifically, with the opening 60 of the corresponding locking pin on the track 10. The locking pins 2020 of the receiver can be retracted from the release bearing 2000 receiver. A plurality of receiver pins 2025 can protrude outward on one side of the universal adapter 990. A plurality of receiver pins 2025 can operate similarly to the mounting pins 140 in FIG. 7 for mounting the universal adapter 990 on track 10, a fixed plate 130, or a similar surface support. The lever 2000 actuates a damper as described below. The damper is activated by arrows 2002.

[0084] Figure 10C shows another embodiment of the interface device 172. Mounting holes 170a, 170b, 170c, 170d may be used to attach a piece of equipment to the interface device 172. A tongue 2026 may fit into the receiving groove 2015 of Figure 10A.

[0085] Figure 11 shows a wedge support 47 of a self-aligning fastening system. The wedge support includes a mounting plate 135, a rear surface 165, a front surface 195, and four mounting pins 140a, 140b, 140c, and 140d (not shown). The rear surface 165 is located on the opposite side of the front surface 195 of the support 50. The first clip 53 is connected to the rear surface and includes a cup-shaped hole 54. The gripper plate 56 is connected to the first clip 53 and includes a keyway groove 57 hole that partially overlaps the cup-shaped hole 54. The hole the key groove 57 has a narrow end 75 and a wide end 70. The cup-shaped hole 53 and the hole of the clavid groove 57 define the landing area 58 and the gripping area 59. The landing area 58 is defined as the place where The hole of the clavid groove 57 and the cup-shaped hole 53 are approximately the same size, and the grip area 59 is defined as the place where the hole of the clavid groove 57 is smaller than the cup-shaped hole 53. The wedge release 61 is connected to the first clip 53 and the wedge displacement spring 102 (Figure 13) is located between the first yoke 53 and the wedge release 61 to move the wedge release 61 to the locked position. At least one fixing pin (140a, 140b, 140c and 140d) is connected to the front surface 195, each fixing pin having a rod portion that projects outward from the rear surface 168 and an enlarged portion of the head located at the distal end of the rod portion . The release pin release 160 is connected to the support 50 and, as shown in FIG. 7, includes a release pin 155 extending through the mounting plate 135 and extending outward from the rear surface 165 in an extended position. The spring 720 moves the locking pin 165 to the extended position, and at least one extended locking pin 160 is operatively connected to the locking pin 165, and when actuated, retracts the locking pin 165 into the mounting plate 135, and when released, allows the spring 720 to slide locking pin 165 in the extended position.

[0086] As shown in figures 11 and 12, one or more mounting devices 62a, 62b, 62c and 62d can be used to mount the gripper plate 56 and the first clip 43 to the mounting plate 135. The mounting devices 62a, 62b, 62c and 62d also can be used to attach the release pin release 160 and associated parts to a mounting plate 135. Although four mounting devices 62a, 62b, 62c and 62d are shown in the drawing, it should be understood that more or fewer mounting devices can be used. As shown in the drawings, the support 50 has an “X” shape, which helps to reduce weight, and also allows one or more fastening pins 140 to grip with the grooves (20, 25, and 30) of track 10. The wedge support 47 can be installed as an adapter, as described above, instead of the structure associated with the second mounting plate 225.

[0087] Figure 12 shows a first wedge carrier 53 yoke 47. The wedge release 61 has a blade 64 that is used to increase the engagement surface area 66. This increased area helps to hold the wedge coupler 72 (Figure 14) in the cup-shaped hole 54 and under the plate the grip 56. The wedge release 61 rotates around the pivot point 67. As shown in FIG. 11, the wedge release 61 has a handle 68 to assist the operator in moving the wedge release 61 between the unlocked position and the locked position. The cup-shaped hole 54 has a plurality of guide walls 63 that are used to center the wedge-shaped coupler 72 when it is in the cup-shaped hole 54. The guide-walls 63 surround the cup-shaped hole 54 and can be of any angle to facilitate centering of the wedge-shaped coupler 72.

[0088] Figure 13 shows a cross-section of a wedge support 47, where a cross section is made in the center of the middle groove 25 of figure 1, illustrating track 10. The wedge coupler 72 is shown inserted into the wedge support 47 with the wedge release 61 in the locked position. The wedge release 61 is moved by the spring 102 to the locked position. The blade 64 is engaged with a recess 76 in the equipment of the plate 74 of the wedge coupling device. A pivot point 67 is shown with a pin 71 used as an axis of rotation. The handle 68 will be actuated in the upward direction of the arrow T to translate the wedge release 61 from the locked position to the unlocked position. In the unlocked position, and with reference to figure 12, the blade is flush with the bottom surface 69 of the cup-shaped hole 54. When comparing figure 12 with figure 13, we see that the gripper plate 56 provides a protective coating for the pivot point 67 of the wedge release 61. Mounting holes 55a and 55b are shown in the middle groove 25 of track 10, where they alternate with holes 60a and 60b of the locking pins. The wedge coupler 72 may have one or more mounting holes 73a, 73b, and 73C in the plate 74 for mounting equipment.

[0089] Turning to figures 13 and 7, we see that figure 13 is perpendicular to figure 7. The locking pin 155 in figure 13 is shown in the inserted position, while in figure 7 the locking pin 155 is shown in the extended position

[0090] Figure 14 is a front view of the wedge coupler 72. The wedge coupler 72 may include an equipment plate 74, a bowl 77, a plurality of gripper guides 78a and 78b, and a wedge 79. The equipment plate 74 provides a mounting point for mounting the wedge coupler 72 to piece of equipment (not shown). The equipment plate 74 also provides one of two barriers for gripping the clavid groove 57 of the gripping plate 56, as shown in FIG. 11. The other barrier consists of a plurality of gripping guides 78a and 78b. The gripping space 82, located between the equipment plate 74 and the plurality of guides 78a and 78b, has a gap that allows the wedge coupling device 72 to join the gripping plate 56 with a sliding fit and to limit unnecessary movement between the wedge coupling device 72 and the gripping plate 56. A wedge 79 is located between the plate equipment 74 and a plurality of gripper guides 78a and 78b, connecting them together. The wedge 79 has a first surface 83 that is configured to contact the key groove 57 and aid in rotational alignment of the wedge coupler with the wedge support 47. In other words, the input surface 83 is configured to rotationally align the wedge coupler 72 with the wedge support 47, allowing only parts of the surface 83 of the wedge coupling device enter the capture region 59 of the opening of the clavid groove 57. The wedge 79 also includes a first inclined surface 84 and a second inclined surface x 85. The first inclined surface 84 and the second inclined surface 85 are located opposite each other and connected to the input surface 83.

[0091] Figure 15 is a side view of the wedge coupler 72. The gripper 76 is shown as a recess in the bowl 77. The exit surface 87 has a slope corresponding to the angle of the bowl 77. The tilt allows the bowl 77 to center the wedge coupler 72 on the landing area 58 as shown in figure 11.

[0092] A method for attaching a piece of equipment to a wall may include attaching a medical device (not shown) to a wedge coupler 72. A wedge coupler 72 may include an equipment plate 74, a bowl 77 with a plurality of gripper guides 78a and 78b, and a wedge 79 located between device 74 and bowl 77. Track 10, mini-track 12, or a track for quick installation of equipment 11 can be connected to a wall (not shown) or to another structural surface. The installation of the wedge support 47 on the track 10 or 11 can be performed using one or more mounting pins 140a, 140b, 140c and 140d on the wedge support 47 with one or more oval target areas 13 and are connected by a sliding fit with the wedge support 47 in the locked position, in which the locking pin 155 enters the hole 60 of the locking pin. The wedge bearing 47 has a rear surface 165 and a front surface 195. The wedge bearing 47 includes a first yoke 53 connected to the front surface 195 and includes a cup-shaped hole 54, a gripping plate 56 connected to the first yoke 53 and includes an opening of the keyway groove 57 with a wide end 70 and a narrow end 75, which partially overlaps the cup-shaped hole 54, with the wide end 70 of the key groove 57 and the corresponding cup-shaped hole 54 define the landing area 58, and the narrow end 75 of the key groove 57 and the cup-shaped opening Section 54 defines the grip area 59. The wedge release 61 is connected to the first yoke 53. A wedge displacement spring (i.e. spring 102) located between the first yoke 53 and the wedge release 61 serves to move the wedge release 61 to the locked position. At least one fixing pin 140a, 140b, 140c and 140d is connected to the rear surface 165, each fixing pin 140a, 140b, 140c and 140d may include a rod portion that projects outward from the rear surface 165 and an enlarged portion of the head, located at the distal end of the core. The alignment of the wedge coupler 72 with the wedge support 47 is done by pushing the bowl 77 all the way into the seating area 58 through the wide end 70 of the opening of the clavid groove 57 and the cup-shaped hole 54, allowing the plurality of guide walls 63 in the cup-shaped hole 54 to occupy the plurality of inclined surfaces of the bowl 77, which will introduce the wedge coupling device 72 in contact with the wedge support 47. The connection of the casting equipment 74 with the wedge support 47 is carried out by the sliding movement of the wedge 79 of the equipment plate 74 to the capture area 59 on the narrow end 75 of the opening of the clavid groove 57 until the gripper plate 56 is locked between the equipment plate 74 and the plurality of gripper guides 78. The wedge coupler 72 is locked in the wedge support 47 under the action of the wedge movement spring (i.e., spring 102 ), biasing the wedge release 61 into the locked position. Unlocking the wedge coupler 72 from the wedge support 47 is done by moving the wedge release 61 to the unlocked position and disconnecting the wedge coupler 72 from the wedge support 47 by slidingly moving the wedge 79 of the wedge coupler from the narrow end 75 of the opening of the key groove 57 to the gripping plate 56 on a wide the end 70 of the opening of the clavid groove 57. Removing the wedge coupling device 72 and, therefore, a piece of equipment from the wedge support 47 is carried out by removing ashi 77 of cup-shaped openings 54. It should be noted that aligning the cup 77 with the landing area 58 is not required. The inclined surface or sides of the bowl 77 allow the wedge coupler 72 to center the bowl 77 and the piece of equipment on the landing area 58. The gripper plate 56 also has a number of inclined surfaces surrounding the opening of the key groove 57, which provides an additional direction of the bowl 77 to the landing area 58.

[0093] Figure 16A is a perspective view of a wedge coupler 72. One or more mounting holes 73a, 73b, and 73c may have a cone or protrusion 89 therein to allow the mounting device described above to attach the wedge coupler 72 to a piece of equipment. 16b is a bottom view of the wedge coupler 77; the wedge device includes first 84 and second 85 inclined surfaces to increase or decrease the thickness of the wedge 79 when moving along the vertical axis V. The shape of the wedge 79 may correspond to the hole shape of the key groove 57 in the grip area 59, as shown in FIG. 11. Thus, when the wedge 79 is inserted into the grip area 59, the first inclined surface 84 and the second inclined surface 85 will come into contact with the keyhole opening 57 and provide a pulse of rotation of the wedge coupler 72 to align the wedge 79 with the narrow end 75 of the keyhole groove hole 59. When the wedge coupler 72 sits at the edges of the landing area and the wedge release 61 is in the locked position, the first inclined surface 84 and the second inclined surface 85 come into contact with both sides of the narrow end 75 of the opening of the clavid groove 57. The contact surface 81 will be pressed to the bottom 69 of the cup-shaped hole 54. The output surface 87 is wider than the input surface 83 and wider, than the wide end 70 of the opening of the clavid groove 57.

[0094] Figures 17 and 18 show perspective views of a folding tray 355. The folding tray 355 includes a tray 340 that can move between a storage position parallel to the mounting plate 135 and a working position perpendicular to the mounting plate 135. The tray 340 can hold, secure and / or serve as a support for various objects or equipment, such as a laptop computer. In the operating position, the tray 340 can position the equipment so that the user can work with this equipment. In the storage position, the tray 340 is positioned so that the tray and equipment itself are oriented parallel to the mounting plate 135, thus being in a compact position.

[0095] In figures 17 and 18, the folding tray 355 is shown in the operating position. Two sets of upper levers 305 and lower levers 310 are connected to the upper support 345 and lower support 350 through a series of hinges 300. The upper levers 305 and the lower levers 310 are connected to the tray 340 using hinges 300 used to support the tray 340 in storage and use positions. The left and right channels 325 are formed in the upper part of 360 of the tray 340 and are used in combination with a pair of cams 330 and a pair of anti-slip gaskets 320 to secure a piece of equipment 370. A pair of anti-slip gaskets 320 is used to hold a piece of equipment 370 in place through a friction fit between a pair of anti-slip gaskets 320 and groove 325. A pair of anti-slip pads 320 also has a dynamic module that absorbs vibration transmitted through the hinged tray 355. A series of clips 315 are used to prevent randomly moving the upper arms 305 and the lower arms 310 from a storage position to a working position and vice versa. The guide member 335 is attached to the bottom 365 of the tray 340. In this embodiment, the guide member 335 is an elongated part with an open groove 336, allowing the insertion of cords or other elements. The upper support 345 and the lower support 350 are mounted on the mounting plate 135 of the support 50 with four fasteners 230. In this non-limiting embodiment, fastening pins 230 are used to fasten the folding tray 355 on the mounting plate 135. The upper and lower supports 345 and 350, respectively can be adjusted to different angles of inclination of the tray 340 to a plane perpendicular to the mounting plate 135 by moving the hinge 300 into another adjustment hole 308.

[0096] The mounting plate 135 may have various mating devices for the connected equipment, as well as the locking pins 155 shown in FIG. 3. In FIG. 18, a wedge coupler 72 is shown connected to a mounting plate 135 for releasably connecting to the wedge support 47, as shown in figure 11.

[0097] Figures 19 and 20 show perspective views of the hinge support 420. The hinge support 420 includes a housing 405 and a hinge frame 410. The hinge frame 410 is attached to the mounting plate 135 of the support 50. The hinge frame 410 is attached to the housing 415 through the upper hinge 380 and the lower hinge 385, which are aligned along the longitudinal axis. The upper hinge 380 and the lower hinge 385 may allow the hinge body 405 to rotate 360 degrees in the hinge frame 410 about a longitudinal axis. The hinge housing 405 can be locked against rotation by the locking device 415. The locking device 415 is a friction lock and includes a threaded rod (not shown) that exerts a friction force on the lower hinge 385 of the locking handle 390. When the friction is applied to the lower hinge 385, the hinge body 405 is held in place in the desired angular position with respect to the hinge frame 410, which allows the hinge body 405 to be fixed in any angular position relative to the longitudinal axis. There are four mounting holes 400 in the hinge body 405. The mounting holes 400 are used to attach a piece of equipment 425 to the hinge body 410 using any mounting device 430 similar to those described above.

[0098] Figure 21 shows a hook IV 650 for a dropper column in a working position. Hook IV 650 has two IV hooks 655. They are connected to the central stem 670 by means of a locking hinge 665. The locking hinge can fix both hooks IV 655 in any working or storage position, as shown in figure 21b. The locking joint is secured by means of a ball bearing mounted in the recess of the rotational element of the joint, or by a snug fit inside the joint to create friction to maintain the current position of the IV 650 hook for the dropper post. The release spring 660, the yoke 615, and the central stem 670 are aligned along the vertical axis V. The exhaust spring 660 is installed between the locking hinge 665 and the yoke 615. The central rod 670 is connected to the mounting screw 620. The IV 650 hook is pressed against the track (for example, track 10 of figure 1 ) and aligned with one of the mounting holes (for example, the mounting holes 35 of Figure 1) on the track. When the IV 650 hook is pressed against the track, the yoke 615 compresses the release spring 600, the mounting pin 620 enters the mounting holes, and the IV 650 hook slides into the tapered portion (not shown) and is released.

The control button 1715 is installed on the equipment side 1702 and is functionally connected to the locking pin 155 and, when actuated, retracts the locking pin 155 into the rail 1720, and when released, allows the locking travel spring to shift the locking pin 155 to the extended position.

[00103] The equipment 1700 installed on the track is a universal support that can be used in the mounting system of various track equipment. The support 1700 has two mounting pins 140a and 140b mounted on a rail 1720 for connecting to the first external groove 20 and the second external groove 30 of the track 10 of figure 1, a mini track 12 of figure 38, or a quick-fit track 11 of figure 28A. In addition, each fastening pin 140a and 140b is arranged to fasten the equipment on a support 1700 in a vertical or horizontal position on track 10, a mini track 12, or a quick track 11. In a preferred embodiment, the pins 1710 are threaded. The connection points 1725 are sections of the rail 1720 where the installation of a piece of equipment (not shown) is carried out using conventional means, including studs, bolts, glue, fingers, cotter pins or rivets. In a preferred embodiment, the stud 1710 is a threaded stud that secures a piece of equipment to a support 700 with a nut.

[00104] Figure 25 shows a tightening hook 760 and track mounted equipment 1700. The base plate 750 is attached to track mounted equipment 1700 with screws 755a and 755b. The tightening hook 760, the hook 770, and the guide 775 serve to grip and support the IV bag (not shown) or part of the handle or strap of the bag. Clamp 765 is used to prevent the IV bag from slipping off hook 700, and the clamp is pivotally mounted at the base 771 of hook 770. Any object with a suitable loop can be hung on hook 750, put on hook 700 and held by clamp 765 in guide 775.

[00105] In another embodiment, two mounting plates (not shown) may be connected by threaded rods 1710a and 1710b to the track support 1700. The dual mounting plate may be a plate on which two or more holding hooks 760 are mounted next to each other. This allows to hang several objects on them or, on the contrary, allow you to hang one heavy object on several hooks.

[00106] In yet another embodiment, the equipment mounted on the track support 1700 has light sources used for indoor lighting. The light source is attached to the support of the lamp unit by a clamp, and a post (not shown) is inserted into the flexible adapter of the lamp unit. The lamp support assembly is mounted on track equipment with two nuts on the threaded rods 1710a and 1710b. The objective of this embodiment is not limited to lighting. The flexible adapter allows you to attach other devices to it, for example, a magnifying glass, a flashlight, a mirror, a reflector or a clip for another device.

[00107] Figure 26 illustrates the support of an IV 780 bag with a holding hook 750 at the top of a rack 805. The rack 805 can be attached to the bracket 680 of an IV Velcro ^® 675 bag of figure 23. The rack can be attached to equipment 700 mounted on a track. Bag IV (not shown) is suspended on a holding hook 750 and secured to a strut 805 using tape 685 passing through two openings 800 with a protective strip 690.

[00108] Figure 27 shows a track 10 with a plurality of open target areas 900 and open non-target areas 902. The first external groove 20 and the second external groove 30 may include open target areas 900 to accommodate the mounting stud 140 of figure 3 or similar studs, such as the second mounting head 620 of figure 21. In some embodiments, these open target areas 900 allow you to install the support 50 with the equipment attached to it on track 10 by sliding fit without the use of mounting studs 140 in the open areas 35 of figure 1. Open These target areas 900 are larger in diameter and / or size than open non-target areas 902, which allows you to change the orientation of the support 50 on track 10 to ensure good adhesion of track 10 to support 50. In alternative embodiments (not shown), track 10 may not include open non-target areas 902. It may include only a certain number of open target areas 900 along tracks 20 and 30 and a narrowed area extending between a certain number of open target areas 900. An example of this embodiment is shown in the figures 28A and 28B.

[00109] Figures 28 and 28B show a track for quick installation of equipment 11. A track for quick installation of equipment 11 includes a base plate 15 with a middle groove 25, a first external groove 20 and a second external groove 30. The first external groove 20 and the second external groove 30 contain many diamond-shaped target areas 13, which allows the round head of the T-shaped mounting stud 140 of figure 3 to enter the first external groove 20 and the second external groove 30 at an angle to the base plate 15. The middle groove 25 has many holes for the locking pin 60 (for example, 60a and 60b) in support th plate 15. The holes for the locking pin 60 are horizontally aligned with many diamond-shaped target regions 13. The many diamond-shaped target regions 13 allow you to quickly install the support 50 of figure 3 on track 11 with some degree of misalignment, which may occur due to the inability to see and align the support 50 for the open areas 35 of track 10 in FIG. 1. The support 50 may be slightly rotated relative to the quick fit track 11, and the mounting pins 140 will be inserted into the plurality of diamond-shaped target areas 13. When the mounting spiers The bows 140 are inserted into the plurality of diamond-shaped target regions 13, the support 50 will be aligned parallel to the fast-mounted track 11. In other words, the plurality of diamond-shaped target regions 13 allows some rotation in the support 50 and ensures successful engagement of the first external groove 20 and the second external groove 30.

[00110] In addition, a plurality of diamond-shaped target regions 13 will allow quick insertion of the support 50 into the track 11 at an angle to the support plate 15. In other words, the user can insert the mounting studs 140a and 140b into the first external groove 20 before the support 50 is moved or aligned so that that the locking pins 140c and 140d will be inserted into the second external groove 30. This function allows the user to install a heavy or bulky piece of equipment using the second user and allows some displacement (in rotation and tilt angle) of the support 54 with respect to the support cast 15. The base plate 15 may also have a plurality of mounting locations 17, allowing the use of fastening devices to fasten the fast-mounted track 11 to a surface, wall or structure.

[00111] Figure 29 shows a track 10 with a plurality of lock holes 905. A middle groove 25, similar to the groove of figure 1, can be replaced by a plurality of lock holes 905, allowing the locking pin 155 shown in figure 3 to be inserted into a separate lock hole 905 with a sliding fit for attaching the support 50 to the track 10. In some embodiments, the first external groove 20 and the second external groove 30 may have many open target areas 900, as shown in figure 27, but they do not require many diamond-shaped target areas 13, shown s in Figures 28A and 28B.

[00112] Figure 30 shows a track 10 without a middle groove 25 of Figure 1. The first external groove 20 and the second external groove 30 may have many target areas 900, but they do not require many diamond-shaped target areas 13 shown in figures 28A and 28B. The flat surface 910 allows the locking pin 155 of Figure 7 to apply a moving force to the horizontal surface to create an interference fit between the mounting studs 140 and the tapered areas 40 of the first external groove 20 and the second external groove 30. A moving force is required to separate the support 50 from track 10. An interference fit or friction fit with mounting pins 140 in the grooves (20, 25, and 30) constitutes a mounting device that fastens the two parts by friction after sliding these parts to each other. In addition, the function of the shock absorber described below with reference to figure 37. can also provide the necessary force for attaching the support 50 to the track 10 of figure 30.

[00113] Figure 31 shows a wall assembly 2050 including a track 10 of figure 1, a mini track 12 of figures 38, or a track for quickly installing equipment 11 of figure 28. Track 10 may include a plurality of protrusions 2070a and 2070b. Many of the protrusions 2070a and 2070b are shown as extensions of track 10, but it should be understood that many of the protrusions 2070a and 2070b can also be used to shorten track 10. Many of the protrusions 2070a and 2070b can support the wall covering 2055 and keep the wall coating 2055 on par with the end surface 2078 of the base plate 15. The wall covering 2055 may be made of any material, and may be attached to the plurality of protrusions 2070a and 2070b by welding, glue, or fastening devices described above. The outer wall coating 2060 may also be made of any material, and may be attached to the supporting structure 2080 by welding, glue, or fastening devices described above. The support structure 2080 is connected to the base plate 15 and provides strength and rigidity to the base plate 15, wall coverings 2055 and the outer wall cover 2060. The supporting structure 2080 may also be part of the wall assembly frame 2050. The first external channel 2071, the central channel 2072, and the second external channel 2073 may be part of the supporting structure 2080 and provide electrical wires, plumbing, and other services that may be provided when assembling the wall 2050.

[00114] The base plate 15 has a front surface 2078 and a rear surface, the front surface being opposite the rear surface. The base plate 15 includes a first external groove 20 with many open areas and many narrowed areas connecting a plurality of open areas, a second external groove 30 with many open areas and many narrowed areas connecting a plurality of open areas, and a middle groove 25 with many openings for the locking pin in the base plate, and the holes for the locking pins are horizontally aligned with many open areas of the first external groove 20 and the second external groove 25. The base plate 15 also includes a first protrusion 2070a along the first outer edge of the base plate 15 to support the first wall cover 2055a at the same level with the front surface 2078 of the base plate 15, and the second protrusion 2070b along the second outer edge of the base plate 15 to support the second wall wall coating 2055b of figure 32 at the same level with the front surface 2078 of the base plate 15. The base structure 2080 is connected to the rear surface of the base plate 15 to provide support for the assembly of walls 2050, in which the wall assembly includes a structure 2050 to support the first wall coating 2055, the second wall coating and and coatings 2060 of the outer wall.

[00115] Figure 32 shows a wall 2040. Tracks 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d, and 10e can be spaced along wall 2040 at any desired interval depending on the type and number of pieces of equipment mounted on wall 2040. Walls contain many wall assemblies 2050 connected together. Wall coatings 2055a, 2055b, 2055c, 2055D, 2055e and 2044f are combined with tracks 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d and 10e. It should be noted that wall coatings 2055a, 2055b, 2055c, 2055D, 2055e, and 2044f can provide structural support for tracks 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d, and 10e, with elements 2080a, 2080b, 2080c, 2080d, 2080e not supporting the wall 2040.

[00116] Figure 33 shows a cabinet 2100 for mounting on the wall 2040 of figure 32. A cabinet 2100 can be used to store various items along the wall 2040.

[00117] Figure 34 illustrates the rear portion 2105 of cabinet 2100. A plurality of key openings 2108a, 2108b, 2108c and 2108d can be used to engage the studs of one track, as described above with reference to figure 9. The studs of one track can be located in any along the track 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d and 10e of figure 32, if they can be inserted into the plurality of key holes 2108a, 2108b, 2108c, 2108d and 2105e on the rear wall of the cabinet 2100.

[00118] As described above, the support 50 of FIG. 3, the adapter of FIG. 8 or the wedge support 47 of FIG. 11 can be used to attach to the track 10 of the cabinet 2100 or the housing of the electronic unit 2110 of FIG. 36.

[00119] Figure 35 shows a cabinet 2100 mounted on the wall 2040 of figure 32. In this embodiment, tracks 10a and 10b are spaced apart to use one track pin inserted into a plurality of key holes 2108a, 2108b, 2108c and 2108d on the rear side 2105 of the cabinet 2100, as shown in FIG. 34. Wall coverings 2055a, 2055b, and 2055c provide a flat surface for wall 2040 and cabinet 2100.

[00120] Figure 36 shows a vehicle cabin 2200. In this embodiment, the support structure 2080 provides a frame for the vehicle cabin 2200. Cross members 2081 are inserted between the elements of the support structure 2080 to provide additional strength and rigidity to the vehicle cab 2200. The support structure is connected to track 10, as shown in FIG. 31, and wall coverings 2055 are located at some distance from each track 10 to provide a flat interior surface in the vehicle cabin 2200. The cabinet 2100 is attached to the tracks 10, as well as the case of the electronic unit 2110. The case of the electronic unit can have a number of holes on its rear side and can be mounted on the track in the same way as the cabinet 2100.

[00121] The vehicle cabin 2200 has been discussed above, but it should be understood that any wall-limited structure may include assembling the walls 2050 of Figure 31. In addition, vertical tracks 10 are shown in the vehicle cabin 2200. However, the tracks can also be horizontally positioned. using the transverse members 2081 at the location of the supporting structure 2080. Coatings 2060 of the outer wall can also be used to cover the cab 2200 of the vehicle.

[00122] As shown in FIGS. 3, 10B, 11, and 37, in one embodiment, the release pin of the locking pin 160a and 160b and the wedge release 61 can function as a shock absorber. The shock absorber function allows the release of the locking pin 160a and 160b and the release of the wedge 61 to select a play between the support 50 and track 10. To facilitate mounting the support 50 on track 10 and to remove it from the track, the play between the mounting studs 140 and the grooves (20, 25 and 30) should be a certain clearance. Consequently, the support 50 mounted on track 10, minitrack 12, or quick-mount track 11 may be subjected to shock loads and vibrate. The function of the shock absorber is either to use a piston (2020 in FIG. 10B), or to apply pressure between the support 50 and track 10, or to retract the mounting studs 140 into the mounting plate 135 to select a gap between the support 50 and track 10.

[00123] In figure 37, the wedge bearing 47 is shown with a release pin of the locking pin 160a and 160b (160) in the form of one block rotating around a central axis. The release pin release 160 may be in the latched position 133 and the unlocked position 131. In the unlocked position 131, the release pin release 160 can move freely to or from track 10 to remove support 50 from track 10, as described above. In the latched position 133, the stopper 128 prevents this movement of the release pin release 160. When the release pin of the locking pin 160 is actuated (rotated) from the unlocked position 131 to the locked position, the cam 133 (not shown) either presses the piston (not shown) against track 10 to select the gap between the support 50 and track 10, or retracts the mounting studs in the mounting plate 135, as described above, acting as a shock absorber.

[00124] Furthermore, in another embodiment, the blade 64 has a different shape than the shape of the blade 64 in Figure 12, as well as the shape of the contact surface 66. The narrower blade 64 and the contact surface 66 in Figure 37 allows the wedge release 61 to damp large shock loads without disturbing the action of narrow wedge interface devices (not shown).

[00125] Figure 38 shows another embodiment of the universal adapter 990 shown in Figures 10A and 10B. A plurality of keyhole openings 2012a, 2012b, 2012c serve to receive a tape for attaching equipment 172 (not shown), where various cast options for equipment 172 are described above. An equipment receiver release 2005 releases the equipment support 172 from the universal adapter 990 by releasing rods (not shown) in each of the plurality of keyway holes 2012A, 2012b and 2012c. The latch motor 2011 acts on the retractable pin 2013 to release the universal adapter 990 from the minitrack 12. The retractable pin 2013 works similarly to the locking pin 155 in figure 3.

[00126] The mini-track 12 is another variation of the track 10 of figure 1. The mini-track 12 allows attaching smaller loads to the track surface on the surface of the support, wall or structure.

[00127] Figures 39A and 39B show a quick release collar 3000. A quick release collar 3000 has an eye 2005 with an opening 3003. An eyelet 3003 serves to pass material for suspending the equipment using a quick release collar 3000, a latch, clip, rope or similar material, a carabiner and of a similar connector paired with a quick-release clamp 3000. The structure of the leg 3008 imitates the footprints of the two mounting pins 140 of figure 3, if they were placed in adjacent open areas 35 of track 10 of figure 1. The clamping pin 3025 is moved a hundred the foot of the foot 3008 and simulates the locking pin 155. The handle 3020 allows the clamp pin 3025 to be pulled out of the foot 3008 to remove the quick release clamp 3000 from track 10. The plurality of recesses 3015a and 3015b allow the clamp pin 3025 to fix the quick release clamp 3000 between two tapered regions 40. In other words when the quick-release clamp 3000 is in a non-phase position (see FIG. 5), adjacent narrowed regions 40 occupy a plurality of recesses 3015a and 3015b. The clamp pin 3025 includes both sides of the clamp pin 3025a and 3025b, as well as both sides of the handle 3020a and 3020b, and they all move together as one unit.

[00128] When the quick-release clamp 3000 is inserted into the track 10 in the in-phase configuration, the clamp pin 3025 comes into contact with the front surface of the track 10 and does not occupy the open region 35. When the quick-release clamp 3000 goes into the non-in-phase configuration, the clamp pin 3025 moves to the open region 35, thus fixing the 3000 quick-release clamp on track 10.

[00129] It should be noted that, as they are used in this application, the mounting pins 140 can be replaced with a tongue 180, allowing the use of various configurations of the support in all embodiments. The size and orientation of track 10 and modular slabs 105 may vary depending on the application. The number of mounting studs 140 or grooves 20, 25, 30 of the track may also vary depending on the application and load. In addition, all embodiments disclosed herein, including, for example, track 10, fixed support 130, and support 50, may be made of aluminum, steel, plastic, rubber, injection molding, or similar materials.

[00130] It should also be borne in mind that the track system can be modular and that the components of the track system can be interchangeable, which reduces assembly time, simplifies the process, and reduces costs. Such modular execution of a track system can provide a faster response to specific conditions, which can improve results in some cases. The configuration of the track system allows it to be used on a variety of different vehicles and / or other equipment, thereby providing the advantage of interchangeability and flexibility. Another advantage of the track system described here is that it allows the user to install, remove and / or reconfigure one or more pieces of equipment with little operator requirements for knowledge of the track system.

[00131] It should also be borne in mind that track 10, mini-track 12 and track for quick installation of equipment 11 can be scalable to use mounting studs of various sizes and configurations. For example, standard hole sizes may be 19.05 mm (open areas 35 in Figure 1), 25.4 mm in the center. The size of the holes for track 10, minitrack 12, or quick-set track 11 can be increased to 38.1 mm, 50.8 mm (2 inches) in the center. Alternatively, the size of the holes for track 10, minitrack 12, or quick-fit track 11 can be reduced to 9.5 by 12.7 mm in the center, which would correspond to minitrack 12 in figure 38.

[00132] In some embodiments, printed or colored signs or tactile indicators (eg, markers) may be used in conjunction with the track system. For example, a marker may be placed next to or even on track 10. In some embodiments, the marker may be placed on tracks 10 to bistro adjust the position of the antenna mount 100, with which there is little visibility. Signs may be located on rails 10 or on a military vehicle 300.

[00133] The track system can be made of any material of sufficient strength. It can be made from one piece of material or cast. Studs on the mounting plate and holes on the tracks, if necessary, can be increased or decreased to achieve the desired strength of the support, equipment and materials used in the production of the track system.

[00134] It should be noted that this system does not require tools for mounting a piece of equipment on a vehicle or other equipment. As stated above, the simplicity of its use and installation allows you to install a unit of equipment in the daytime or night working hours. The track system is designed so that quick dismantling can be performed in the dark, and a piece of equipment can be moved or removed in low light or in the absence of light.

[00135] It should be noted that the terms "mainly" and "about" can be used here to express some degree of uncertainty that can be attributed to any quantitative comparison, value, measurement or other representation. These terms are also used here to indicate the degree to which a quantitative representation may differ from that claimed by reference without changing the subject matter of the invention.
