Electronics component mounting system

摘要

This invention is a modular electronics mounting system according that is easy to install and that can be used with a wide variety of electronics components. A support plate includes a grid of holes arranged in at least one pair of columns spaced apart by a selected distance. The holes in each of the columns are spaced apart by a predetermined interval. The support plate is configured to be mounted to a wall such that the grid is spaced apart from the wall. A module formed generally as a plate such that an electronic component may be mounted thereto. The module includes a pair of hooks extending from a first edge of the plate. The hooks are spaced apart by the column spacing such that the hooks may be arranged to extend through first and second holes in the grid. A locking pin extends from the module such that the locking pin extends into a corresponding third hole in the grid to restrain the module against movement parallel to the support plate. The module further includes a passage that is aligned with a fourth hole in the grid when the hooks and locking pin are in their respective holes. The invention further includes a locking pin configured for insertion into the passage and through the fourth hole in the grid, the locking pin being arranged to restrain the module against movement away from the support plate.
