- 1 - "APPARATUS FOR SECURING AN ELECTRONIC UNIT TO AN AVIONICS TRAY" This invention relates to apparatus for securing an electronic unit or the like to an avionics tray. Electronic equipment for use in aircraft has been generally standardised into set sizes of electronic units. These units are supported on avionics trays which are likewise of standardised sizes. When an electronic-unit is mounted onto an avionics tray, electrical connections must be made in order to allow the proper functioning of the equipment. Usually, the electronic unit is provided with a bank of pins which meet with a corresponding socket provided in or on the avionics tray. Because of the delicacy of the equipment and the need to ensure proper electrical connections, the method of mounting the unit on an avionics tray, and correspondingly of extracting the unit from the avionics tray, assumes an important role. In order to ensure proper electrical connection, an appropriate degree of force is required to insert the pins into their respective sockets. Too much force, however, could lead to damage to the electronic unit or to the connections, and therefore the appropriate insertion forces for a particular electronic unit can be defined within a relatively narrow range.
