1. An apparatus for securing a component of an electronic device, comprising:
(a) a field replaceable unit (FRU), comprising: (i) a component that comprises a front face and a backing face that is opposed to the front face, and a bottom edge; (ii) a backer plate that comprises a first face, a second face opposed to the first face, and a bottom edge, and (ii) at least two bottom spacers attached in proximity to the bottom edges of the component and the backer plate, and configured to hold the bottom edges in a substantially parallel configuration relative to one another with space therebetween such that the backing face of the component faces the first face of the backer plate; and (b) a base plate, wherein the base plate comprises recessed pockets each with a recessed upper surface and a saddle between the pockets with a raised upper surface and parallel walls, wherein the saddle comprises a width and a height relative to the recessed upper surfaces of the pockets such that bottom edges of the component and the backer plate straddle the saddle and are secured in the apparatus; wherein the pockets comprise corners between the edge that forms the saddle and an outer edge of the pocket, wherein each of said corners comprises a curved radius, wherein the FRU is retained by contact between corners of the bottom edges of the component and the backer plate and the curved radii of the pockets. |
