ANTIDISLODGEMENT CLIPS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A first antidislodgement clip (10) and a second antidislodgement clip (12) cooperate to lock a bracket (16), supporting a work surface (14), to a vertical slotted standard (18) and are automatically set in locked positions when the work surface (14) is mounted to the standard (18). The bracket (16) has a pair of support bosses (38). A hanger plate (20) has a number of fingers (56), a plurality of hooks (48) and a series of tabs (52). The lowermost finger (56) has a detent notch (66). The first antidislodgement clip (10) is pivotably mounted to the hanger plate (20), and the second antidislodgement clip (12) is pivotably mounted to the bracket (16). Lockably securing the work surface (14) to the standard (18) requires first mounting the hanger plate (20) to the standard (18) by engaging the hooks (48) and the tabs (52) with the slots (22) of the standard (18). The bracket (16) is then partially mounted onto the hanger plate (20) such that the fingers (56) partially engage the bosses (38). At this time, the support bracket (16) is in contact with the first antidislodgement clip (10) and the lowermost finger (56) of the hanger plate (20) is in engagement with the second antidislodgement clip (12). Further engagement of the support bracket (16) onto the hanger plate (20) causes the first antidislodgement clip (10) to move to locked position in a slot (22) above a tab (52) of the hanger plate (20) and the second antidislodgement clip (12) to lock underneath the detent notch (66) of the lowermost finger (56). In this manner, the first anti- dislodgement clip (10) prevents upward vertical movement of the hooks (48) with respect to the slots (22) and thus inadvertent dislodgement of the hanger plate (20) from the vertical standard (18). In addition, the support bracket (16) is firmly secured to the hanger plate (20) by the second antidislodgement clip (12) which rests underneath the detent notch (66) to prevent dislodgement of the support bosses (38) from the fingers (56).
