Device for electrically connecting and attaching an electrical device to a wall in a vehicle

摘要

An apparatus for electrically connecting and attaching an electrical device to a wall in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus provides a universal base plate with a first connection region with a first electrical connector arranged therein and a universal rear wall with a second connection region with a second electrical connector positioned therein. The universal base plate comprises attachment means for attachment to a wall in a vehicle, wherein the universal rear wall is designed to form part of an electrical device or to be attached thereto. The rear wall and the base plate comprise largely corresponding directions of extension and are designed to be brought into mechanical engagement with each other, wherein during mechanical engagement the first and the second connection regions are arranged adjacent to each other in such a manner that the first electrical connector and the second electrical connector establish a mutual connection.
