Abstract

See full text

A basketball backboard mounting system includes a stationary member that provides support for a basketball backboard assembly. The mounting system combines a support system including a plurality of hollow members and an actuator system for easily adjusting the support system. The support system includes a stationary member mounted perpendicularly with respect to a floor. The actuator system includes a plurality of adjustable brackets which attach to a basketball backboard, an adjustable structural member which is in slidable contact with the stationary member, and a drive mechanism which easily adjusts the height from the floor of the basketball backboard assembly. The adjustable structural member is telescoping and provides enough support to a basketball backboard to eliminate potentially damaging torsional forces on the basketball backboard.
