ABSTRACT:
A mounting bracket and an arrangement for mounting an electronic accessory device within the mounting bracket when installed in a vehicle not only holds the device for its intended use but also permits limited withdrawal for insured and normal access to the control panel for desired adjustment. The mounting bracket is comprised of a base plate and a pair of opposed, complementary flat arms depending from opposite ends of the base plate for stationing of an electronic device within the mounting bracket. Each of the arms includes a pair of channels for guiding displacement of the stationed device within the mounting bracket. One of the channels is generally straight, and the second of the channels is generally serpentine and spaced from the first channel between the first channel and the base plate. In the mounting arrangement, the device to be situated in the mounting bracket is provided with two pairs of pins, one pair protruding from each of opposed sides of the device and one of the pins engaging the first channel and the second pin engaging the second channel. One or more of the pins may be in the form of a thumb screw which protrudes through the channel and which may be tightened against the arm to lock the pin and the device at a predetermined displacement and inclination within the mounting bracket for viewing and access for performing desired adjustments.
