The patent US12047031B2 describes a mount designed for an energizer, featuring a base body with two columns extending from a mounting element. The mount includes a pivot element that can be attached to the energizer and a pivot assembly that connects this pivot element to the base body. The pivot assembly consists of a fixed retainer at the end of each column and a sliding retainer that can move along the columns. This assembly allows the pivot element to maintain a fixed angle in one position while being pivotable in another, with the design incorporating a spring mechanism to facilitate movement between these positions. The base body also includes a mounting element with a protrusion that interacts with recesses on the pivot element, enabling different fixed pivot angles.

Additionally, the patent outlines a post adapter that can be inserted into a mounting passageway of the base body, allowing for various rotational positions. The mount is designed to secure the energizer in multiple radial positions and includes a locking feature that engages with a pivot element. This pivot element is further described as having a flange that engages with a track on the energizer, ensuring a secure connection. The energizer assembly, as detailed in the claims, includes a housing with a track passageway that allows the pivot element to slide and engage with the energizer, providing a versatile and adjustable mounting solution for energizers, particularly those equipped with solar panels.
