ABSTRACT:
Unique flex-lock dovetail mounting apparatus (300) is described that may be advantageously utilized for mounting radio transceivers (100) and accessories (200) in harsh environments. The housing of the radio transceiver (100) includes on one side thereof at least two channels (101 and 105) producing a dovetail. The mounting apparatus (300) includes a top plate (304); a slide plate (308) attached to the top plate (304), having on at least one end a cut-out portion (310) producing a gap (320, 321 and 322) between the cut-out portion (310) and the top plate (304), and having at least two rails (301 and 305) producing a dovetail and each adapted to insert into a corresponding one of the channels (101 and 105); and locking apparatus including a lever (306) or a thumb screw (706) coupled to the top plate (304) and the cut-out portion (310) of the slide plate (308) for flexing the cut-out portion (310) toward the top plate (304) thereby locking the rails (301 and 305) in position in the channels (101 and 105).
