Abstract
An electronic module installation tool temporarily supports electronic modules in electronic racks. The tool has a frame configured to be inserted into a rack and that has a top surface for supporting an electronics module. A front surface of the frame supports a faceplate and left and right manual clamps having a first pivot for the clamp handle relative to the frame and a second pivot for the clamp relative to the clamp handle. The faceplate extends to the left and right to create flanges that each support a pin carrier that supports rearwardly extending top and bottom vertically arrayed pins that are sized and spaced apart to align with holes in an attachment rail in the rack. A clamp extends between the pins and clamps to the rear side of the rail when the handle is operated. The tools may be made for various sizes of racks.
