A support assembly () having a structural element () having first and second non-parallel adjoining surfaces (), a bracket () attached to the structural element (), and a component support (). The bracket () has a first flange () including a first attachment surface () adhesively bonded to the first surface () of the structural element (), a second flange () including a second attachment surface () adhesively bonded to the second surface () of the structural element (), and a connection portion () interconnecting the first and second flanges (), the connection portion () extending spaced from the structural element () such that a gap () is defined therebetween. The component support () is engaged to the first flange (). The connection portion () may have a lower resistance to rupture than that of the first and second flanges (). A method of removably securing a component to a structural element is also discussed.

Attachment bracket and support assembly

A device connects a wire harness to a structure. A fixation portion of the device is secured to the structure. A spacing portion is connected to the fixation portion and to a connector portion. A retaining clip on the connector portion deforms when a wire harness connector component moves axially toward the fixation portion. The clip opposes an abutment edge against the component into engagement position when the component is past the clip to prevent it from moving back onto the clip. An abutment surface contacts another portion of the component in engagement position to prevent further axial movement of the component toward the fixation portion. The component is held captive between the edge and the abutment surface. Also provided are a cable support for connecting the wire harness to the device, a method for connecting and disconnecting the wire harness to a structure with the device, and an aircraft.
