Mount system for attaching camera to a sport board
First Claim
1. A mounting system for attaching a camera to a sports board, comprising:
- an upper mount component structured to enclose a camera, the upper mount component having a bottom surface including a first plurality of protrusions extending from the bottom surface, each of the first plurality of protrusions having a pinhole;
a lower mount component having a top surface and a bottom surface, the top surface including a second plurality of protrusions extending from the top surface, each of the second plurality of protrusions having a pinhole, wherein the second plurality of protrusions interlock with the first plurality of protrusions such that the pinholes in the first and second plurality of protrusions align for insertion of a pin, the bottom surface including a securing protrusion extending from the bottom surface, the securing protrusion structured for insertion into a reciprocal opening in an adhesive attachment;
the pin inserted into the aligned first set of pinholes and second set of pinholes, coupling the upper mount component to the lower mount component; and
the adhesive attachment having a body structured to adhesively attach to the top surface of the sports board and having a hole structured to receive a securing device which, when inserted into the hole of the adhesive attachment, secures the camera mounting system to the sports board.

Abstract
A camera mount is configured to attach a camera to a sports board. A camera is secured to the mount, which is secured to a sports board. The mount can secure to the sports board via an attachment device such as an embedded plug. The mount can be placed at the front or rear of the sports board. Furthermore, the mount can be configured to face either forwards or backwards to capture images and/or video from different viewpoints while participating in the board activity. Moreover, the mount includes a pivoting joint to allow a user to rotate the camera either upward or downward and then secure the camera at a fixed angle to capture images and/or video from different angles.
