Abstract

A device mounting appliance comprising a device and a mounting appliance, the device mounting appliance including at least three combined leg-lugs formed on a mounting surface of the device; recesses formed in the combined leg-lugs, respectively; a fixing lug formed on the mounting surface of the device so as to be positioned within a polygon formed by connecting the combined leg-lugs; a movable lever attached to the mounting appliance, the lever having a hook portion and a wobbling preventing projection and being urged in one direction by a spring; and a guide provided on the mounting appliance and engaged with lugs of the appliance which are fitted into the recesses of the combined leg-lugs when the device on the mounting appliance is slid a predetermined distance, and also engaged with the combined leg-lugs upon such sliding of the device, wherein when the device on the mounting appliance is slid, the lever is once moved by the fixing lug of the device against the spring and then, at the end of the sliding motion, it is returned by the spring, allowing the hook portion to grip the fixing lug substantially in the sliding direction, and at the same time, the wobbling preventing projection of the lever is brought into pressure contact with the fixing lug, whereby the device can be easily fixed firmly to the mounting appliance without wobbling and can be easily detached therefrom.
