Abstract:
1. A sub-rack mounting bracket for mounting an electrical device sub-rack to an electrical device rack, comprising: a first portion extending throughout the length of the sub-rack mounting bracket for coupling the sub-rack mounting bracket to the electrical device rack during use, the first portion being generally planar and arranged in a first plane; a second portion extending throughout the length of the sub-rack mounting bracket for coupling the sub-rack mounting bracket to the electrical device sub-rack during use, the second portion being generally planar and arranged in a second plane at a constant distance from and orientation to the first plane along the length of the sub-rack mounting bracket; and an intermediate portion extending throughout the length of the sub-rack mounting bracket and arranged between the first portion and the second portion, the intermediate portion enabling flexing of the sub-rack mounting bracket relative to at least one of the electrical device rack and the electrical device sub-rack in response to vibrations, wherein the sub-rack mounting bracket extends lengthwise along a longitudinal axis of the sub-rack mounting bracket and the intermediate portion is formed by a first bend portion, a second bend portion, and a third bend portion, or the intermediate portion comprises a curved portion in the sheet material, each bend portion or the curved portion being respectively bent in a bend direction or curved in a curve direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the sub-rack mounting bracket.
