Abstract
Example implementations relate to integral mounting features. In one example, a conduit includes a first endpoint, a second endpoint, an exterior surface, and a mounting feature integral with a portion of the exterior surface to removably couple to a corresponding mounting feature integral with a surface of an object, where the mounting feature is located between the first endpoint and the second endpoint of the conduit.
Claims15
A conduit, comprising:
- a first endpoint of the conduit;
- a second endpoint of the conduit;
- an exterior surface of the conduit;
- and
- a first mounting feature integral with a portion of the exterior surface of the conduit to removably couple to a corresponding second mounting feature integral with a surface of an object, wherein the first mounting feature is located between the first endpoint and the second endpoint of the conduit, wherein the first mounting feature comprises a recessed slot creating an opening through a body portion of the first mounting feature, and wherein the recessed slot is to accommodate the corresponding second mounting feature and without accommodating the conduit.
2 more elements
A system, comprising:
- a conduit including a first mounting feature integral with a portion of an exterior surface of the conduit, where the first mounting feature is located between endpoints of the conduit;
- and
- an object having a surface including a corresponding second mounting feature to directly and removably couple to the first mounting feature of the conduit,
- wherein the first mounting feature comprises a recessed slot creating an opening through a body portion of the first mounting feature, and wherein the recessed slot is to accommodate the corresponding second mounting feature and without accommodating the conduit.
1 more element
A method, comprising:
- providing a conduit including a first mounting feature integral with a portion of the conduit, where the first mounting feature is located a fixed distance from endpoints of the conduit;
- and
- positioning the first mounting feature of the conduit in contact with a corresponding second mounting feature integral with a surface of an object to removably couple the first mounting feature to the corresponding second mounting feature,
- wherein the first mounting feature comprises a recessed slot creating an opening through a body portion of the first mounting feature, and wherein the recessed slot is to accommodate the corresponding second mounting feature and without accommodating the conduit.
