Abstract
Systems and methods for mounting a computing device. One system includes a wall mounting bracket having a front side and a back side. The system further includes a main chassis having a front side panel removably connected to the front side of the wall mounting bracket, a second side panel removably connected to the front side of the wall mounting bracket, and a computing device having a first side and a second side, the first side removably attached to the first side panel and the second side removably attached to the second side panel, and the main chassis connected to the front side of the wall mounting bracket.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a wall mounting bracket having a front side and a back side;
- and
- a main chassis connected to the front side of the wall mounting bracket, the main chassis including:
- a first side panel removably connected to the front side of the wall mounting bracket;
- a second side panel removably connected to the front side of the wall mounting bracket;
- and
- a computing device having a first side and a second side, the first side removably attached to the first side panel and the second side removably attached to the second side panel.
A DIN clip comprising:
- an upper clip having a clip body, a front side, and a back side, the back side having an upper projection that extends azimuthally from the clip body;
- a sliding clip having a second clip body, the second clip disposed at least partially within upper clip and slidably connected to the upper clip with a threaded nut, the sliding clip longitudinally slidable with respect to the upper clip, and having a lower projection that extends azimuthally from the second clip body;
- and
- a friction pad disposed on the back side of the upper clip, the friction pad releasably secured to the upper clip with a set screw, the friction pad azimuthally moveable with respect to the upper clip.
A method for mounting a computing device, the method comprising:
- forming a main chassis having a first side panel and a second side panel connected to the computing device;
- attaching a wall mounting bracket to a substrate;
- hanging the main chassis from the wall mounting bracket;
- and
- securing the main chassis to the wall mounting bracket with a plurality of securing devices, the main chassis extending as a vertical stack from the wall mounting bracket.
