Abstract:
A circuit board support adapted to mount a circuit board in an enclosure comprising:a support panel to which the circuit board is attached, the support panel having top and bottom edges with projections formed thereon and forming at least one pin;upper and lower rails respectively mounted to top and bottom sides of the enclosure, each rail defining a plurality of slots for movably receiving the projections of the top and bottom edges of the support panel; anda locking member fixed to at least one of the rail, the locking member having a resilient section in which a hole is defined whereby when the support panel is moved with respect to the rails to a predetermined locked position, the hole engages with a pin formed on the support panel by elastically deforming the resilient section thereby fixing the support panel at the locked position, the engagement being ensured by the resiliency of the resilient section.
