The language in claim 1 recites "a vertical mounting structure." It is well-understood that in a claim using an open-ended transition term "comprising," the article "a" ordinarily means "one or more." SanDisk Corp. v. Kingston Tech. Co., 695 F.3d 1348, 1360 (Fed. Cir. 2012) ("general rule that the use of the indefinite articles 'a' or 'an' means 'one or more"'). Moreover "the later use of 'the' and 'said' to refer back to an earlier claim term does not limit that claim term to the singular." Id. Here, the claim recites "a vertical mounting structure," which is properly understood to mean "one or more vertical mounting structures."
