A structure for supporting a portable electric device and for making electrical connections thereto for energizing the device and connecting the same to external apparatus. The structure shown is particularly adapted to support a portable radio for use in a vehicle, and for automatically connecting the radio to an electric current supply and/or an antenna, and/or to other external apparatus. The structure can also be used to lock the radio into the frame, protecting it against unauthorized removal. The supporting structure includes a housing for receiving the electric device, which is slidably mounted in a frame, with movement of the housing causing movement of connectors thereon into operative engagement with electrical connectors on the device. The frame may include a cam engaged by the actuator of a connector, to move the connector as the housing slides within the frame. The structure for supporting a portable radio may include first and second connectors moving in sequence as the housing with the radio therein slides within the frame, with the first connector making electrical connections to the radio and also accurately positioning the radio within the housing, and the second connector then moving to make connection with the radio.
