Abstract:
A mounting system for suspending an appliance from an overhanging structure and, particularly, for suspending an appliance of the type having a housing including an upper surface and projecting rims extending away from the housing of opposite edges of the upper surface. The system includes a first bracket for attachment to the overhanging structure, the first bracket including a first lip for supporting one of the upper surface rims. A second bracket is in telescoping relation to the first bracket and includes a second lip for supporting the other of the upper surface rims. The first and second brackets are resiliently urged toward each other while the relative movement between the brackets is regulated. In a preferred embodiment, the relative movement between the first and second bracket is restricted by stops and prevented by a locking mechanism.
