An electronic module is designed to be slotted into an aircraft instrument panel. The module has: a rear face and a front face that are substantially flat and parallel. Means are provided for attaching the module to the instrument panel. The attachments are situated on the front face of the module. At least one connector-module is attached on the rear face of the electronic module and can be plugged into a socket mounted on the panel as the electronic module is guided into position on the panel. The direction of plugging in the connector-module situated on the rear face is substantially in the plane of the rear face. The support comprises guidance and rotation means making it possible to guide, plug in and insert the module into the instrument panel.

Device for connecting an electronic housing in a holder through at least two translation movements

An optronic device fitted with a focusing mirror for projection on a visor. A plane mirror is placed between the last active component of the optronic device and the visor. The mirror is attached to a reinforcement of the device by an elastomeric seal that presses the mirror against screws screwed into the reinforcement. The ends of each pair of screws form axes about which it is possible to pivot the mirror. An identical action on each of the screws makes it possible to move the mirror in translation. Adjusting the mirror makes it possible to alter the position of the visor seen by an optical module of the optronic device, and therefore to focus the image on the visor so that it is as sharp as possible. This corrects placement errors of the visor and its curvature defects.
