Quick Mount System for Computer Terminal

摘要

A mounting system for quickly attaching and detaching a computer terminal from a mounting station. The mounting station can be semi-permanently attached to an object, such as on forklift or a non-mobile structure, such as a wall. The mounting station can include a power input port for receiving external power for the computer terminal and one or more communication ports for providing data communication between the computer terminal and another device. The computer terminal includes an electrical connector that engages an electrical connector of the mounting station to receive the supply power and facilitate the data communication between the computer terminal and other device. The computer terminal and/or the mounting station can include a locking mechanism that releasably couples the computer terminal to the mounting station such that the electrical connectors maintain proper contact.
