Visor mounting apparatus for radar detectors
First Claim
1. A mounting apparatus for securement to an automotive visor of an automobile for securement of a radar detector thereon, the radar detector including a top surface for securement to the apparatus, and wherein the apparatus comprises,a planar support plate including a mounting means for mounting the support plate to the visor, the support plate further including a first and second conductive plate in electrical communication with the automobile, andthe first and second conductive plates further including a respective first and second magnetic means for magnetic securement to the top surface of the radar detector, anda first and second securement plate fixedly mounted to the top surface of the radar detector for respective securement to the respective first and second magnetic means, andthe first securement plate and the second securement plate in electrical communication with the radar detector, whereupon securement of the radar detector to the support plate provides electrical communication of the radar detector to the automobile.

Abstract
An apparatus including a support plate with a "U" shaped flange formed with serrated confronting teeth for securement to a visor of an automobile. The support plate includes a plurality of spaced, elongate magnetic plates with conductive strip members orthogonally mounted to opposed lateral elongate edges of each of the strips. Aligned between each of the strips is a first and second recess of dissimilar geometric configurations for complementarily receiving a first and second projection mounted to a top surface of a radar detector receivable within each of the respective recesses. A first and second securement plate is magnetically attachable to each of the conductive strip pairs for selective securement of the detector to the conductive strip pairs, and wherein each of the securment plates are in electrical communication with the radar detector, and wherein each of the first and second conductive plates includes an individual electrical wire for providing efficient and immediate electrical communication of the radar detector to the automotive circuitry. A modification of the securement plate includes a "U" shaped recess to receive a "U" shaped magnetic strip therewithin. A modification of the support plate includes a plurality of straps provided with hook and loop fastener attachment portions for securement about an automotive sun visor.
