Abstract:
In combination: a loudspeaker, luminaire or similar apparatus; a housing in which the apparatus is received; and at least one resilient structure attached at respective spaced-apart points along the length of the resilient structure to the housing and to the apparatus, the length of the resilient structure between said points of attachment thereof and to the housing and the apparatus being such that when the apparatus is received in the housing the resilient structure is deformed and exerts a force retaining the apparatus in the housing, withdrawal of the apparatus from the housing requiring further deformation of the resilient structure through a state of greater deformation to a state in which the resilient structure does not exert the retaining force, the resilient structure remaining attached to the housing and to the apparatus when the apparatus is withdrawn from the housing.
