Information processing device mounting system

A method for mounting an information processing device to a support structure, comprising:

• positioning an assembly comprising the information processing device and a device bracket adjacent to a support bracket attached to the support structure,
• wherein the device bracket is attached to or part of a chassis of the information processing device and comprises a first plateau, a set of mounting slots in the first plateau, a first basin recessed from and encircled by the first plateau, a second plateau protruding from and encircled by the first basin, and a set of VESA mounting holes arranged in a VESA compatible pattern in the second plateau, and
• wherein the support bracket comprises a first face, a ridge protruding from the first face, a second basin recessed from and encircled by the ridge, and a set of mounting spools arranged in the first face;
• engaging the ridge with a rim of the first basin such that the device bracket is aligned relative to the support bracket by the engagement;
• moving the device bracket towards the support bracket such that:
• the ridge protrudes into the first basin;
• and
• the mounting spools protrude through the mounting slots in unlocked positions;
• and
• sliding the device bracket along the support bracket such that the mounting spools move into locked positions in the mounting slots to mount the information processing device to the support structure.

An information processing device mounting system, comprising:

• a device bracket configured to be attached to, or being part of, a chassis of an information processing device;
• and
• a support bracket configured to be attached to a support structure for holding the information processing device,
• wherein the device bracket comprises a first face, a first set of mounting features in the first face, a first guide structure coupled to the first face, and a set of VESA mounting holes arranged in a VESA compatible pattern in the first guide structure,
• wherein the support bracket comprises a second face, a second set of mounting features arranged in the second face, and a second guide structure coupled to the second face,
• wherein the first guide structure and the second guide structure comprise complementary convex and concave portions,
• wherein the device bracket is configured to be attachable to a VESA mount component via the VESA mounting holes, and
• wherein the device bracket is configured to be attachable to the support bracket by:
• engaging the convex portion with the concave portion such that the engagement aligns the device bracket relative to the support bracket;
• moving the device bracket towards the support bracket such that:
• the convex portion protrudes into the concave portion;
• and
• the first and second sets of mounting features engage one another in unlocked positions;
• and
• sliding the device bracket along the support bracket such that the first and second sets of mounting features move into locked positions.
