Abstract
A mounting system for mounting plug-in modules into a module carrier is disclosed. The system comprises a plug-in and pull-out fixture, the fixture having a lever which is connected to the modules by means of an endpiece. The lever is provided with a resilient self-locking detent hook which extends in the lever's locking position behind the corresponding projection of the slot in the end piece, the slot facing downwards towards the transverse bar of the module carrier. This system allows for the insertion & removal of the modules with reduced force compared to the prior art, as well as improved ergonomic handling of the modules.
