A UNIVERSAL MOUNTING FIXTURE FOR AXLE COUNTER SENSORS.

A universal mounting fixture for axle-counter sensors, said fixture comprises: at least a longitudinal bar adapted to provide a support structure for said fixture when said fixture is aligned alongside rails; at least a transverse bar adapted to intersect said longitudinal bar; at least a resting bracket spaced apart from said at least a longitudinal bar; at least a sensor housing held by said resting bracket, said at least a resting bracket being provisioned on a slidable mechanism on said at least a transverse bar in order to provide for an operative horizontal linear motion on said transverse bar, thereby imparting a first degree of freedom to said fixture in terms of an operative horizontal linear motion of said at least a resting bracket on said at least a transverse bar; at least a plate angularly displaceable on an operative inner side of said upper vertical member of the resting bracket, thereby making said at least a sensor housing to be angularly displaceable, thereby imparting a second degree of freedom to said fixture in terms of a roll motion of said at least a sensor housing with respect to the ground; and at least a slidable mechanism on an outer side of said at least a sensor housing in order to work with said at least a plate in order to provide for an operative vertical linear motion to said sensor housing, thereby imparting a third degree of freedom to said fixture in terms of an operative vertical linear motion of said at least a sensor housing and sensor, thereof.
