Abstract
A computer enclosure rack mounting system employs standoff members attached to left and right rails of telescoping extension slides. A computer enclosure includes bearing surfaces that are adapted to receive the standoff members. To install the computer enclosure into the rack, the left and right rails are extended, and the computer enclosure is lowered toward the rails until the standoff members of the rails engage the bearing members so as to support the enclosure. After this has been done, the enclosure and rails are simply slid back into the rack. The rails need not be removed from the rack to install the enclosure, and the enclosure need not be mounted to the rails by means of screws or bolts. The enclosure may be easily removed from the rack by reversing the just-described procedure, and may be installed into a different slot or a different rack without removing or replacing the rails.
