Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for mounting an object such as a keyboard within a vehicle are disclosed. One mounting system includes a keyboard and a mounting apparatus. The keyboard includes at least one aperture. The mounting apparatus includes a base, a slide plate, a latch, and a locking mechanism. The slide plate is coupled to the base and is slidable in a predetermined direction relative to the base. The latch is movable between an engaged position that prevents the slide plate from sliding relative to the base and a disengaged position that does not prevent the slide plate from sliding relative to the base. The locking mechanism is movable between a locked position in which the locking mechanism engages the at least one aperture to lock the keyboard to the slide plate and an unlocked position in which the locking mechanism does not engage the at least one aperture.
