Mounting device and method for attaching an electronic toll pass assembly to a vehicle windshield
First Claim
1. A mounting device for mounting an electronic toll payment pass to the interior of a contoured windshield, said device comprising:
- a flexible support substrate having a face surface and a back surface, said flexible support substrate being conformable to the interior of the contoured windshield;
a display image is disposed on said face surface of said flexible support substrate;
an adhesive coating on at least part of said face surface of said flexible support substrate, wherein said adhesive coating enables said face surface of said support substrate to be selectively attached directly to the contoured windshield of the vehicle as said flexible support substrate conforms to the contoured windshield;
at least one fastener coupled to said back surface of said flexible support substrate that enables the electronic toll payment pass to be selectively mounted to said back surface of said flexible support substrate.

Abstract
A mounting device and method for mounting an electronic toll payment pass to the interior of a vehicle'"'"'s windshield. The device is comprised of a flexible support substrate having a face surface and a back surface. The face surface of the flexible support substrate is attached to the glass of the vehicle'"'"'s windshield, wherein the flexible support substrate conforms to the curvature of the windshield. The electronic toll payment pass is connected to the back surface of the flexible support substrate in a manner that allows the electronic toll payment pass to be easily installed and removed by the driver of the vehicle. The flexible support substrate preferably contains a display image. The display image is visible through the glass of the windshield and obstructs the viewing of the electronic toll payment pass.
