Abstract
The mounting arrangement permits the mounting of a face mounted electric motor in right-angular relationship on a support frame member without requiring the use of separate fasteners, such as screws and the like, and is of particular value when mounting of the motor by robotic techniques. The motor is provided with a mounting flange having a pair of diametrically opposed outwardly extending mounting ears with mounting openings provided therein. A pair of motor support members is provided on the support frame and includes semi-spherical cam projections which are aligned with the openings in the mounting flange when the mounting face of the motor is positioned against the support frame and rotated until the semi-spherical cam projections snap into position in the openings in the mounting ears.
