Abstract
A device mounting system used for wireless and sensing devices. The device mounting system includes a device bracket adapted to receive a device by attachment of the device to the device receiver bracket. The device mounting system includes a housing assembly to receive and support said device receiver bracket. The device mounting system includes a mounting interface to act as an interface to attach said device bracket to said housing assembly.
Claims19
A device mounting system for wireless and sensing devices, comprising:
- a device bracket adapted to receive a device by attachment of the device to said device receiver bracket;
- a housing assembly to receive and support said device receiver bracket;
- a mounting interface to act as an interface to attach said device bracket to said housing assembly;
- and
- wherein said mounting interface includes at least two springs, each of said springs including a coil and two spring legs extending from said coil, each of said spring legs including a spring stop;
- wherein said mounting interface includes at least two spring flanges, each of said spring flanges mounted to support said device bracket to said housing assembly by said at least two springs, each of said spring flanges including two spring slots to each receive one of said spring legs, said two spring slots positioned to keep said spring legs of each of said springs in a state of compression;
- wherein said mounting interface includes a spring lock flange as part of said housing assembly for each of said springs, each of said spring lock flange includes a spring lock slot to receive said spring legs of one of said springs, whereby each of said spring stop of said spring leg engages said spring lock flange to prevent said device bracket from falling from said housing assembly.
A device mounting system for wireless and sensing devices, comprising:
- a device bracket adapted to receive a device by attachment of the device to said device receiver bracket;
- a housing assembly to receive and support said device receiver bracket;
- a mounting interface to act as an interface to attach said device bracket to said housing assembly;
- and
- wherein said device bracket includes a mounting plate with two support flanges, said mounting plate including key slots adapted to accept a button and post combination extending from the device, said key slots having a fastener opening leading to a slot, said fastener opening adapted to receive the button beyond said mounting plate to allow the posts slide along said slot to secure the device to the device receiver bracket, where the button prevents the device from separating from the device bracket when the post is moved along said slot and away from said fastener opening.
A device mounting system for wireless and sensing devices, comprising:
- a device bracket adapted to receive a device by attachment of the device to said device receiver bracket;
- a housing assembly to receive and support said device receiver bracket;
- a mounting interface to act as an interface to attach said device bracket to said housing assembly;
- and
- wherein said device bracket includes a mounting plate with two support flanges, said mounting plate including two button slots in the mounting plate, each of said button slots has a button engagement surface on one side of said button slot that extends into an open area of each button slot and a button entrance section, said button slots are each adapted to accept a button and post combination extending from the device, where the buttons fit into said button entrance section of each of said button slots, said button entrance section is large enough to allow the button to pass through said mounting plate, each of said button engagement surface engages a part of the button when said device bracket is move along the device, where such engagement prevents the device from separating from said device receiver bracket;
- and wherein said mounting plate of said device bracket includes a plunger assembly, said plunger including plunger rod, spring and plunger housing, said plunger housing attached to said device bracket above a plunger hole in said device bracket to hold said plunger assembly, said plunger hole is adapted to align with a plunger recess in the device, where said spring biases said plunger rod toward said plunger hole to engage the plunger recess and lock the device in said device bracket when said button engagement surfaces engage the buttons.
