ABSTRACT:
A modular mounting system for the delivery of office utilities from a utility distribution system of an office partitioning system to a worksurface positioned in an individual workspace includes a mounting rail having an upper portion shaped for abutting attachment to a bottom surface of the worksurface and further includes a lower mounting portion defining at least one mounting aperture therein. A utility distribution bracket is abutted to the lower mounting portion wherein the bracket includes a base and an upper frame connected to the base defining therein a cavity shaped to closely receive a utility distribution block. The base and frame further define at least one aperture for user access to the utility distribution block. The utility distribution bracket further includes an engagement member extending through the mounting aperture and closely engaging the lower mounting portion of the mounting rail in a fastenerless fashion wherein the utility distribution bracket is disengagable from the mounting rail and interchangeable with others of like utility distribution brackets.
