A surveillance camera mount including a bracket and a base defining a hollow housing which are formed so as to render the mount essentially tamper-proof. The bracket is adapted to be secured to a mounting surface and includes a surface adapted to support a surveillance camera and an opening or channel disposed to face opposite the camera supporting surface. The base conforms to the opening or channel in the bracket and has a flange extending substantially about the perimeter thereof with at least a portion adapted to be disposed internally of the bracket. When the base is secured to the bracket, the fasteners adapted to mount the bracket to the mounting surface and the camera to the camera supporting surface are concealed. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION To overcome the problem of theft of television cameras, the present invention is directed to a surveillance camera mount having a bracket and a base defining a hollow housing.
The bracket, which is adapted to be secured to a mounting surface, has a surface adapted to support a surveillance camera together with an opening disposed to face opposite the camera supporting surface.
The base, which conforms to the opening in the bracket, has a flange extending substantially about the perimeter thereof with at least a portion adapted to be disposed internally of the bracket.
With this arrangement, means are also provided for mounting the bracket to the mounting surface and for securing the base to the bracket in a tamper-proof manner.
The camera mount has a structure which encloses the mounting of the camera to the bracket as well as the mounting of the bracket to a wall so that a thief has no exposed features to approach in trying to steal the camera itself or the camera and the bracket as a unit.
More specifically, the bracket mounting means is concealed by the base when the base is secured to the bracket by the base securing means.
This is accomplished, in part, due to the construction of the bracket and base which comprise the hollow housing in that the bracket includes a pair of spaced, elongated side walls together with retaining means associated with the camera support surface at a location remote from the mounting surface and the flange on the base includes a pair of spaced, elongated side flange portions, both of which are disposed internally of the hollow housing defined by the base and bracket when the base is secured to the bracket.
In addition, a front flange portion of the base defines a front wall having a lip adapted to be disposed in operative relation with the retaining means of the bracket.
In a preferred embodiment, the surveillance camera mount includes a plate adapted to be disposed between the mounting surface and the bracket.
The plate preferably has a tongue extending outwardly away from the mounting surface
